Awesome Idea on the whips.

One question i'd like to ask.. I play on big monitors and really liked when the game was "re-size" able. With more graphics just a bit. Could those options be optional for players who want it? It would really help on bigger screens like tvs.

Awesome release of 07! I was once a player back in these golden days.

Q1: YES

Q2: YES

Q3: 40xYES

Q4: YES

Q5: YES

Q6: MAYBE (Price must outweigh the time, it'd be unfair to get clue scrolls must faster from minigames, but shouldn't be too slow either)

Q7: YES, those flags are cool :D

Q8: Yes, females need air between their legs!

Q9: Yes, Mages and Rangers should be included! (REMEMBER TO ALLOW US TO PLACE THIS ARMOUR IN OUR POH)

Q10: Maybe (ensuring they don't effect the economy in the way of ruining fishing / cooking skills)

Q11: MAYBE, I don't have a problem with "Beast mode, increased health!" but if they have super attacks and super defense, it'll just make them invunerable. I.e. People go on a 5 kill streak, and are unkillable and cap the flag

Q12: YES, tactical gameplay would be great.

Q13: MAYBE, Only if the runes work with the normal spellbook, thus no cheap ancients, XP isn't the reason people go to castle wars with mage, it's for fun / rewards, it would make maging too easy

Q14: MAYBE, The game must be able to recognise you've killed the same person over and over again, for example, player 1 kills player 2, then kills player 3, then player 2, then player 3, thus getting over 200 kills, and over 20 tickets for boosting, you could cap it at say "maximum 5 ticket bonus" etc etc.

Q15: YES, but it should be more than just 1 ticket, capturing the flag is PTO, it's the most important thing in the game, people should stand out completely, i think 3-5 tickets would be fair with a maximum of 10 tickets per game bonus.

Q16: YES, minigames shouldn't be secluded from the world, people shouldn't be feeling a million miles away from civilisation.

Q17: I don't see why not, it would give the lower leveled players an entertaining way to train up.

*18: Yes, it's unfair for a team to play correctly throughout the whole of wave 10, only to die on the queen because it was nearly impossible (especially if they have latency) to fire the eggs, it's not about making it easier, it's about catering for all connection types, lagging in that minigame makes it nearly impossible to time your clicks right when it comes to the cannon.

Q19: NO, there should be a message flashing on the screen until you call, example: Call changes, 5 seconds later if you haven't called a red message saying "error, no call made", if they call and it's wrong, the top right should have the call in red, if they called right it should be in white.

Q20: Maybe, only if disallowed in PvP fights, currently people fight with torsos, defender, fighter cape, and only drop small stuff, soon they'll be dropping just a helm.

Q21: Maybe, Only if the defenive stats are also reduced, a pure level 1 defence would have a field day if they had armour they could use with good bonuses without leveling the skill.

Q22: Yes, Cabin fever has some high requirements to the casual Runescape player, and although they'll attain them within time, the minigame suffers because of the lack of interest from players wanting to quest, or grind skills.

Q23: maybe, Only if cooking isn't a major part of that minigame

Q24: Yes, arma is far more impressive and difficult to attain.

Q25: Yes

Q26: Yes

Q27: Yes, but with limits of 500 per player per 4 hours, thus hoarding can't be done as efficiently.

*28: YES, i'm tired of people using orion, a 3rd party piece of software i do no trust, having that ability, yet i, playing the official game client do not, the fact Jagex hasn't acted up on it is rather annoying as well, especially when the client now reads the players health so you know exactly what they are on, while reading your xp, to calculate in a rough manner what you are going to hit, this gives players who use it right, another way to play tactically, "should i eat, or shouldn't i"?

Q29: Yes

Q30: Yes

Q31: Yes, still will be useless though, as there's no advantage to using it against npcs or players.

Q32: Yes

Q33: NO, there is a bank in brimhaven, if they haven't done that quest, they should. (in aid of something or other)

Overall, happy with the suggestions, but they will need to be tweaked and tested to ensure gameplay balance.

Would have liked to see some more rewards.

If you haven't read this thread yet Jagex, please do: 322-323-661-65158104
Some of his suggestions are amazing.

Other than that, it does sound good. I'm against the shared point reward system and bandages outside castle wars though.

I also agree that more untradable equipment that is good in PvP should not be introduced unless it disappears on death. These items should be high risk to PK with.
