looks like a fun update, hunter is really easy ever since draconic jadinkos came out. but there not very fun, this looks like a enjoyable d&d that will allow me to mix it up while working on 99 hunter in the near future.
graphics update is looking very nice too :O for a desert city , Al-Kharid never really seemed to fit (felt like it was a small little town compared to the bustling desert city it is supposed to be) but with this update it seems like it will really look nice :D good job jagex

I don't train hunter much as it is very tedious and just not my thing, but a private hunter spot? Sign me up!
Really looking forward to Al-Kharid update and new quest!

Two years ago, my friend Thief PhD and I had a race for our third 99s. We had done fletching and cooking together, but chose different skills for number three. I chose hunter, he chose thieving.
I'm sure you can imagine who won.
What's more, I didn't even make it to 99 because I got tired of red chins and all the er... competition I face in that training area. So here I am still stuck at 91.
But not for long! I believe Mod C3DPO has reincarnated my lost interest in an old favorite skill, for which I will hopefully receive a nice cape before long!
Happy 'scaping, folks! :D

Having just finished getting my Champions Tackle Box from fish flingers 2 days ago (World 89 friends chat "2flingfish" ftw) I need a new d & d for my down time from Dungeoneering.
Looks like fun, and as I haven't hunted for ages I'll be looking forward to this.
So many of the Runescape skills have been improved now (ivy for woodcutting, Jadinko lair and bonfires for firemaking, woodcutting and fletching, runespan for runecrafting, living rock caverns and lava mines for mining and fishing, herblore habitat for herblore, flask making for xp in mining and crafting, thieves guild for thieving and agility, talent scout and Gelinor games for agility, Gelinor games for mining, woodcutting and farming, addition of cavefish and rocktails for cooking, Artisan's workshop for smithing, and this update will assist hunter)
That's 14 of the 15 skills with improvements, but what about poor Construction?
I would love some new options for my player owned house please, and for those who haven't got 99 yet, an alternative to the grind of making a zillion oak dungeon doors I'm sure would be appreciated. It's the loneliest skill to train I think, as you can't have friends in your house whilst you build things, perhaps that could be changed?

*sigh*
Possibly this update came from an idea to help players...but really, this is what it sounds like to me:
"We have given up trying to stop bots. We intend to let cheaters continue using their red chinchompa bots as much as they like, because we are unable/unwilling to do what is necessary to stop them. We'll give players their own private areas so they can still hunt without having to compete with bots, but we intend to do absolutely nothing about the cheaters who make ridiculous amounts of cash from bots, and we don't care that it's unfair to legitimate players. After all, if we started doing something about all the illegal cash coming into the game from bots and said it was wrong, we might have to look at our own SoF bought xp and gp and admit it's unfair and wrong too. So, bot away cheathers! You'll never be stopped, caught, punished or banned!"
Even the video itself contains lies: "competing with other players for resources" are you serious? It was never difficult to find your own hunting spot when it was just players, even in the first two weeks when hunter had just come out and everyone was doing it. The competition is with bots. Only bots. We know it. Jagex knows it. But the videos they produce, and their responses when interviewed, reflect a fantasy land where bots are minimal and all 200m accounts were not bots but real players.
Every time you lie to us, we believe you even less.
