If it has heavily reduced exp rates to how it was originally, then support. :)


Nonesense the XP rates were just fine you could get better XP rates with lava runes.


In fact ZMI adds a middle ground version of training. ZMI is not as profitable as Abyss Nature Runes or Astral. But overall ZMI gives about 30-40 XP /h. Lava Runes if efficient can get 66K XP/hr at the cost of being really not profitable.

Can we stop adding new stuff to the Nightmare Zone reward shop now?
I really would rather have had all this stuff go somewhere else.

And can we please imbue the slayer helm with slayer points? Or with drops that give 15% range/mage bonuses on themselves? Just something that makes sense instead of something that seems like it was only done that way because of how easy it is.

I don't like the thought of "we buffed this item, but you first need some sleep points to acces the buff".

Ewww. NOOOO!
I really hope the development team isn't planning on changing how the user interface looks to the one in that picture!
: ( The current dialog box, and menu interface, etc are what I love.
Ew.
If it changes to that crappy WoW wannabe dialog box as displayed in the picture, a lot of us will be sad because that's yet another sign that OSRS may not be completely loyal to the oldschool paradigm but rather to those who want more and more change to the oldschool system to make it like all the other terrible stuff out there, like RS3. Part of what makes OSRS well worth paying $10-$15 for is its complete uniqueness from other games in terms of its graphics, user interface, and the tan dialog box, etc. If it ends up looking like the picture then that's no longer oldschool, and will not be worth paying anything for. So I hope there's going to be an option to
NOT
be forced to play with that user interface, but rather have an option to use the current one for players who actually like how old school runescape looks! I want to keep the current dialog box. Hopefully that doesn't change....

You know I'm right.

There's nothing changing about the interface, just it will be larger and it will be toggable to what you see in the picture. You can still always play in the current interface when reseizable comes so what will be the problem for you?

You do realize this is just a concept, they are not completly done with the interface. They even said they will update the world map interface. Calm down.

As long as I can play in the current OSRS mode, then i have no problem. That's what my entire post is about, my only concern, the source of my disgust. The fact the user interface in the picture looks completely different from the current awesome OSRS interface is what sparks my concern. Until a developer assures me I'll be able to play in the current OSRS mode i'll still have this concern.

I'd also safely assume that most people don't even know it actually exists anyway, and flat out removing it (without even mentioning anything) most people would never even notice lol

I agree, and I also think you're right about the motivation behind the voting. Nevertheless, while we could probably have got away with changing it secretly and pretending it never happened, I don't believe we should do that sort of thing.

Sticking in a warning, on the other hand, should cover the situation nicely.

We could. On the other hand we've had a lot of people saying they don't want it.

While we could just poll every random thing, no matter how unpopular it seems to be at the time, that's got a few drawbacks. In particular, when we poll something, players - reasonably - assume that "Jagex" wants it to pass its poll. So if we poll something that's widely hated, it looks like "Jagex" wants to take the game in a direction that players don't want, which causes the inevitable rage.

So we've left ZMI aside, on the grounds that we've got plenty of other requests to poll instead, and many of them look more likely to pass.

Resizable was polled as an optional mode. Here's the poll question:
"Should we add resizable mode to Old School RuneScape? A toggle would be available to turn resizable mode on or off. "

This means that if you want to stick to the standard fixed-size mode, you can choose to do so. I'm sorry if this was unclear.

It's pretty strong disgust for someone who just wants reminding that they can toggle it off. But if you feel that way, fair enough :)

Yay. Thank you very much for responding
Mod Ash
. I feel better now
: )
I didnt read that poll close enough, but I did vote "no" for that option. But for the record, the disgust is appropriate. RS3 is terrible, and it should be a curse word in OSRS and anything that resembles it should be a source of concern and disgust. I've been playing Runescape since I was 12 for 12 years, so my comments are not just those of a troll, but of a committed
paying player
. I love the game. Ive always said I'd
pay more
for the real Runescape (OSRS) than for WoW if it stays awesome. So keep that in mind.
Money
.

Speaking of OSRS making money, bonds need to be removed. That shows you do not
value
the game enough to expect people to pay for it.
