Hey where is all the content that they promised 6 months ago. We havent seen them. Need to work on stuff you promised and fix stuff that is broken. The game use to be a lot of fun and quest were fun now it seems it amid at making high dollar money and killing bosses. Made quests so hard no one wants to do them any more, not fun. The bank rework promised where is that. We need more tabs and free spaces. It use to be when you came out with new skill you give some spaces. Now everything is geared to paying money for everything even if you already earned it. A dollar here and dollar there fore eveything. The loyality points you give us cant spend them cause you made it where you have to use rune coins. I think you should be able to buy anything with the Loyality points you give us. Just giving us junk if we cant use it on most things. Any way some of these new improvements are just seems to be aimed to rich and boss fighters. You need to get back to what is fun like it use to be and not where you can buy everything. It doesnt take any time to get to 99s now. You buy xp and all this stuff you can buy that helps boost levels. How about old fashion work for your 99s. Than maybe you wont get to 99 so fast and keep adding more junk to keep ppl happy that has everything. Terry

so, did this news article do what it intended?

i see many more players responding to this article than the last one.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

know your customer base.

the majority of players don't kill the hardest bosses or want to do multi-player raids. unless i am truly the minority. most players in rs are skillers and afk at that. with the deep sea fishing the remark was made "goodbye afk". on the poll only 8% like frenzy. 31% like sailfish and i was surprised that 31% chose events--but even that requires other players participating or you just wasted your time to be told that you failed. in that time you wasted xp/gp. i asume that many of the players who chose events would have chosen sailfish if events wasn't a choice. many wow copycats have trouble filling raids and those games cater to a higher combat/pvp crowd--not afk skillers.

pof sounds great to me, i see a sketch, i am guessing this as far as the concept has been pursued. top of the polls for 2 years, and i see a sketch. that makes me think that if it was a true priority now that it won't be released for 18 months. know your player base.

bank spaces, bank tabs, placeholders know your customer base.

i may stop playing until college and nfl football starts up, then i'll work on fishing. when my mem runs out i may wait until pof comes out and get a 2 week mem to try it out.

the article was meant to show value. if i go to a grocery store and buy a product on sale and the cashier says "oh look you saved 3 dollars that's a great deal". yet if the cost is still 50 cents over the cost at another store, it is actually a loss of 50 cents. so rs of course should be compared to other games. and then decide which subs get cancelled.

I'm loving the updates planned for this year so far, but I really would have liked to have been able to solo Solak. My low specs make group bossing a huge pain.

I've been saying this for awhile, but the completionist and trimmed completionist capes should each get one and two more perk slots over the max cape, respectively. I hope this is considered when the perk update happens.

As for the early bank placeholders, I'd probably vote no, it's not really an urgent matter. I just want more preset slots as more bosses come along.

I'll be greatly upset if premier club costs more than 20 bonds even with the insane increase in their ingame value this year. If anything it could stand to be decreased again to like 18 bonds, but I'm sure that won't happen.

Thanks for everything, I don't really mind the membership price increases. I'm not really sure why people who've been subscribed as long as I have even care about that and not the ingame inflation of bond prices.

I just think after a very bad year of content 2017 being one of the worst i can remember, that they should justify as to how they think they have earned a pay increase.

From the list of stuff they are announcing as AMAZING SUMMER CONTENT its still all very "meh". I personally didn't vote highly for any of those topics other then the skillcape perks.

So for me one update isn't deserving of a pay raise IMO.

But this years content whether i have personally enjoyed it or not has been of good quality "Minus release bugs of course, and the jelly fish nerf -.-"

If this years content continues at the rate its going and quality i'm fine with a price increase. This month was the first not very interesting month as far as updates. not bad for 3/4 months being good.

I would of however preferred to see them raise prices as of January 2019. Once we could see how well they possibly did this year with content. Not asked us to have faith in their choices. At this point they need to earn that respect and faith back from the player base, it is not given for free anymore!.

Like I said, they're probably raising the prices in june, right before mobile and group ironmen. New accounts will be stuck with the new price.
Don't forget – RuneScape members get TWO free spins a day instead of the usual one!

Hey everyone,

Note: The information about the price change only applies to new players


...and those who go unsubscribed for more than 14 days. Should be mentioned here as well. I do not plan to renew during the Summer, so even as a not-new player I will be faced with higher membership fees later in the year.

Edit: If I choose to renew at that point.
