YES! please redo the slayer combat level requirements for things like abby demons and dark beasts so us 1 def pures can hit that **** up!!!!!!!

also maybe rethink some of the clue scroll reqs for wearing defence requiring armor for some of the higher clues!!! would be sweet. otherwise, no worries i feel it if u don't want to redo some of those things just for pures. but... the slayer stuff at least would be amazing!

resizable looks dope! so excited for that.

cheers osrs team! good work!

(Although I do somewhat believe that, I don't really like the direction many updates are headed). The big reason why I will vote no to resizable is because if it is the same layout as it was in RS3, it will be uncomfortable for me to use, especially while pking. I believe the tabs are too far from the main interface by laying them across the bottom, making it uncomfortable for me to quickly navigate between tabs and do a quick spell or something of the sort. Yes, I am aware of *-keys but I can only handle using about 3 at once before it gets too complicated in all the action.

Resizeable mode should not affect you whatsoever. Actually I'm pretty sure they said they won't be polling it because players have the option whether to use it or not. I don't see how you think that resizeable looks like rs3, resizeable was out years before eoc was. Get over yourself.

Please read my full post if you're going to try and comment on it. I feel like I have done a good enough job explaining how not using resizable mode will put me at a disadvantage, and I was only saying that if they released resizable mode like they did in the main game (easier to refer to it as RS3 now) where all of the tabs are laid out across the bottom of the screen, it will be uncomfortable to use. Nowhere in my posts did I say that resizable looks like RS3, the only way you could have seen that is through my what I thought was obvious joke:

Fishing Trawler needs an update. The mini-game has been dead for a very long time and now Manta Rays aren't even used as a Food Supply. To this date, it seems the Mini-game is way too slow. You catch an inventory of Fish if you complete the trip, but it's a 10 minute trip, which is slow.

Resizeable will be a wonderful update however I hope you remember that you are yet to poll it and as such you should not be talking about "When you release it" but you should be talking about "When you will poll it".
After it passes its poll I have no issues with it being talked about like this but for now please remember it is yet to be polled.
Players like you won't let them forget it.

I don't see any way this won't pass. People have been asking for this since the initial polling for OSRS before it was even released. It seems that the dev team knows that.

Just because it's an obvious pass doesn't mean it shouldn't be polled. Everyone should have their say in anything done in-game, whether it's a popular belief or not. It's been like this and there's no reason to change it.
is this a troll? how does someone being on full screen effect you lol??

Actually, I know I will be voting no to resizable, and I have a valid reason despite the "THIS IS OLD SCHOOL, RESIZABLE ISN'T 'OLD SCHOOL'" response (Although I do somewhat believe that, I don't really like the direction many updates are headed).

Why vote no on something thousands of players want? OS Status: Nothing atm.

Where has the "It's toggleable so therefore it doesn't need a poll" mentality come from?
Just because a feature is toggleable doesn't mean it won't affect the people with it turned off.
This is old school and everything should be polled otherwise what is the point in having the polling system.

Also for the people who say resizable has no benefits there are a few including extending the field of view.

Old School is a Democratic game, we get the updates that are voted for and if an update happens without a poll then players such as myself feel cheated at a fair vote especially when it comes to big updates.
I know many players would have wanted a poll for evolution of combat in rs3 so having the polling system with old school is just a nice reassuring feature of the game.

Now I've brought this issue up on this thread I hope the J mods will remember and I can't wait for the poll because I know my vote counts which ever way I vote. RIP Forums :(
Finally we have signatures in the surprise forum update. I'm Lewis, I play Old School & I've been playing since 2005.

Please read my full post, I explain how not using resizable puts me at a disadvantage for using a comfortable screen layout. I did read your post why do you jump to the conclusion that I didn't? You said that using resizable would make it harder for you to play. My suggestion is DON'T USE THE DAMN THING.

Resizable isn't some "forced" update where it'll suddenly replace the tiny fixed layout.


I swear this community is just stupid sometimes... OS Status: Nothing atm.

Also for the people who say resizable has no benefits there are a few including extending the field of view. Just like the other toggleable features that have suddenly ruined the game? Because having a wider screen will suddenly ruin everything?

Since when was FoV an advantage? OS Status: Nothing atm.
