This still didn't answer the most important question to me, will we be able to sail in real time with direct control of our ship, or will it be more in the lines of select a location on a map *loading screen* ship arrives at location, and then whatever content is at that location happens, without actually being able to move your ship manually.

Great. Good to see the OSRS team is committed to putting the game in a new direction, rather than copying from rs3.

Exactly brooo

Don't copy ANYTHING from *throws up* Rs3

Make osrs unique and introduce things using the old school mindset Eoc sucks

Why not release Dungeoneering with other rewards, have you never thought about that? jeez

Quit osrs and get out of here with that nerdy mindset no dungerineering and no summoning in osrs. No rs3 recycled content that game is dead Eoc sucks

I've played runescape since 2002 and one thing I notice about this game is how awful the community really has always been when it comes to new things being introduced yet when they are added to the game they end up actually enjoying the content. Personally being a runescape classic veteran, I've always enjoyed seeing new skills being added and the race for being the first to 99 and having your name being #1 on the hiscores. If this doesn't pass the poll, it will just show how ridiculous the old school community really is. For a game to stay interesting we need new things, we can't just always have the same thing for years and years because the game would just die out. I'm sure there's plenty of you out there who will disagree with me, but know this one thing - you have the power to make a difference by voting YES. Don't you want to be able to sail the never before explored oceans, and have fierce battles against other players vessels? If you vote NO to this new awesome skill idea, you obviously can't handle changes in your life. How do you progress without things changing? Think about it.

VOTE = HELL YES.

imagine a new osrs quest revolved around the Sailing skill that could have a quest reward unlocking the ability to craft/smith/construct different things to add to your vessel. And unlock a new slayer dungeon with new creatures discovered on distant islands. So many awesome things would come from this skill. I'm actually excited to see the outcome of the poll (hopefully it passes). Also the PVP aspect of it should be more of a duel arena type deal. Like you can send out a challenge to another player and the challenger can either choose to accept or decline that request. Or have it both ways with dueling/wild pking, make a sailing arena section @ duel arena where there's a giant section with a huge bed of water and have the option to add obstacles and such lol. Just a thought.

The idea of the sailing skill is so good really looking forward to it.

I hope it will be possible to use skills that already exist like fletching, smithing, construction to personalize and create ur own boat and maybe be able to sell it to other players? I hope u will also be free in what you do and how you want ur boat to look like. Maybe they should make it possible for the beginner levels in the sailing skill to have boats from wood and for advanced sailing levels boats in steel?

It would also be awesome to have heavy weaponry on board like cannons to attack or defend from hostile ships (in the pvp part). It would also be great if u could go aboard enemy ships to kill other players and be able to loot there stuff maybe u could be able to than sell the boat to an NPC or other player?

Also with the sailing skill it would be awesome to create more isles in the runescape sea's with new monsters and dungeons. This could also bring new items to the game?
Like I've read in another post it would be best in my opinion to have the ability to sail ur boat ur self and not like current ships with a loading map. Also it should be possible to use ships together with clan mates.

Other nice things would be especially for people that don't have other high stats it would be nice to see other players being able to help out people that don't have required stats to build a certain thing something like the assist system but just for the sailing skill?

-Being able to work together on a boat and make it combat ready.
-There should be different types of boats small and big vessels the speed from the vessels should also be different.
-New fishing spots and maybe woodcutting spots (ivy trees)?
-Being able to stock supplies on ur boat.
-Pvp part located east and north of the wilderness with new safe ports and a bank
-Item dropped by new monsters hand cannon?
-Shared exp?
-Being able to land with a smaller boat stored on a large boat (wilderness aspect).
