Hey guys,
Would it be possible to add four red circles/symbols next to each of the achievements in the achievement menu, that denote which of the difficulties you have completed? Obviously each of the names (Is: Desert, Falador) change to yellow once you've started, but there isn't anything to show what stages you've completed. Once you've completed a particular difficulty, the circle/symbol would turn from red to green. If the scroll bar on the righthand side was removed, there would be plenty of room to the right of each heading.
Thanks, for bringing back OSRS.

Runescape has one of the most unique Player V Player game-play content ever created and yet Jagex doesn't seem to acknowledge this at all. The amount of communication, skilled PvPers, tactics, and game mechanics put into competitive 10v10's / 15v15's / 20v20's would blow your minds. It is one of the most fun aspects of runescape that many people partake in, and there are many clans willing to teach people how to war properly. I think its time Jagex take advantage of this unique aspect of Runescape to acquire/attract a larger audience.

Games like League Of Legends are popular for a reason - people love Player V Player content. Jagex should Host tri-annual warring leagues (one every 4 months) and stream the 10v10/15v15/and 20v20's that take place. This would make great streaming content and attract a much larger audience. Instead of creating deadman mode content (no one wants to slave for weeks and constantly do the same quests and aquire good gear over and over again) this could be a replacement. Generally, the clan with the largest numbers wins deadman mode and it is not appealing to many people to have to skill/quest/and acquire gear all over again.

Below are some examples of very competitive Matched wars and what It would look like:

Buff to Longbows!

Longbows are under used and only come into the game for people to high alch which seems unfair to world history of longbows. in most countries longbows dominated the middle-ages and we should give them a bit more respect.

Suggestion: add a small range strength bonus to longbows. I was thinking along the lines of +10 range str to magic long.

There could even be an imbue that would allow you to fire dragon arrows.

200M XP CAPES

I think it's a good time now to implement high end skill capes for players with 200m xp in a skill. They could either have the rs3's 120 capes designs or have a completely new design, as long as they look awesome it works either way. If particles is an issue on osrs then skip the particles and just use the rest of the design.

And i think it's best if we dont implement any 120 capes but only 200m xp capes instead, because on osrs there is no skill going all the way to lvl 120, so it would not make so much sense to have 120 capes here. But 200m xp is still the end goal for every hardcore skiller so 200m capes would make sense.


Also imo they dont need new skill emotes, the normal 99 skill cape emote would work just fine even on 200m xp capes, if making alot of new emotes would be too much trouble that is.

Would it be possible to bring some of the summoning pets (such as geckos, monkeys, squirrels, etc.) to OSRS but change it around to be "hunter" pets that require certain hunter levels instead? Maybe you could even add entirely new kinds of pets into the mix via hunter.

I suppose bringing back certain ones like the god birds could involve needing a prayer requirement if that sounds appropriate. It could also help to recreate pet shops to sell food for some of these pets as well as be the place to incubate eggs or let us have dog pets again, all of that just without anything summoning-related.

Okay,firstly my excuse is that it's late at night and im tired. But i just had to write it and get your opinion. I don't know if this was suggested before.... I think oldschool runescape should partner up with steam. My arguments for this are:

1.Bigger player pool
2.Obviously with players,comes the community,both on steam and here.
3.Since Jagex tries to prevent real world trading,this might be one of solutions. Because you would be able to exchange one game's items for another's,with no need of real money transactions.

So by now you are thinking: "You dumb person,jagex is it's own company,it doesnt need anyone else". And you are partially right. But you could look at an example with the game "Spiral Knights",or many others.They still are their own companies,its just that they make a lot of more sales.

Of course someone still is thinking: "Runescape has so many items,making them all treadable would be too hard and confusing." And the answer for that would be: The only treadable currency is coins,with the exception of special armor or costumes,which could be sold on the steam market aswell.

I do apologise to those,who think they wasted their time with this thread. Im sorry guys,but i had to do it.

To conclude i would like to say: There arent any right or wrong opinions here. Just share your thoughts about this.

First suggestion: Tele-other to YOUR house spell. Would have to function like the group teleport spells.

Second suggestion: Shift-click deposit all option for banking like resources, e.g. willows, sharks, herbs, etc.
