There a number of you asking why we wanted to give you the option to put in GWD, one reason is that the 2007 build is the one just two weeks prior to it coming out. However, your feedback has clearly shown us that the question isn't as simple as 'shall we bring GWD back or not?' So we need to have a think about that question.

In the meantime, it would be really useful if you could tell us why you would, or wouldn't like to see a piece of content released as we have the ability to make some changes to it.

I don't like the thought of ZMI and especially don't like the thought of GWD, the chances are the players that vote for GWD are new players who didn't play in 2007.

The game is moving far too quickly, JaGeX better watch what they are doing or else many players will just abandon the game completely.

I think the major updates that will cause a stir and probably should not be added are the following updates; GWD, Grand Exchange, ZMI (I trained to 99 RC using ZMI, even though I like ZMI I feel it would be wrong introducing into the game so soon, that shouldn't rule it out a year down the line however) the addition of Slayer monsters/Items that have a direct impact towards the skill (Slayer helmet being an example, many people want this in game however a lot of people who quit the main game quit due to certain objects devalueing skills, I feel this is one of those items)

There should also be a poll regarding Cross-Game trading, this is having a massive impact on the economy as a lot of players are attempting to buy GP with real life cash or are using mule accounts to gather resources in order to complete illegal GP trades, I feel this issue is urgent.

personally i hope to see gwd, in terms of pvm we dont really have much at the moment. I know a lot of people are gonna cry about the godswords and stuff but honestly thats a big part of rs history that deserves to be in this game. to all the people crying about putting these questions in all i have to say is you begged for jagex to listen then u cry when they ask ur opinion. get over it =)

Godwars was a great addition to the game.

Players do need to understand as Mat K has informed us that the server is only 2 weeks prior to coming out.

- How ever our back up argument is that: Why have we not been entitled to a poll regarding bringing back previous July 07 pest control into the game?

WE WANT THE OLD SCHOOL PRE JULY PEST CONTROL BROUGHT BACK!


Stop rushing through the future updates.

We are working on collecting all the ideas and suggestions you have come up with and using them in future polls. I am sure you can imagine that this is no small job, but it is something we are working towards. We would love what goes into the polls to be as player driven as the voting of them themselves.

Mat.

Godswords (particularly armadyl) were extremely high hitting, and they certainly changed how PvP was played - in fact godswords were really only useful for godwars\bossing itself (but not armadyl!) and PvP. They failed as a standard weapon.

The other reason is the huge value shift from skilling for money to camping bosses for money - it was massive in 2007, its still massive in the main game in 2013. "When history witnesses a great change, Razgriz reveals itself... first, as a dark demon. As a demon, it uses its power to rain death upon the land, and then it dies. However, after a period of slumber, Razgriz returns, this time, as a great hero"
