I'm literally quitting because of this hot fix, way to go jagex ruin the only fun bit of content left in the game. Revs is absolutely brilliant when it's full of people, the chaos is hilarious and the gameplay is so unpredictable it's unlike anything I've seen before in Runescape. I have racked up 30000 kc in the Rev caves as I have spent a lot of time in there since the release and I can tell you it is no where near as exciting when there's only a few people per world.

What you need to do is tweak the npc mechanics slightly making the rev enacts harder to kill, this can be done by increasing the hitpoints or giving them an attack that has a chance of hitting through the bracelets effect. And of course buff the loot, I can tell you it is not exciting to see 3 battlestaff on the ground... What we need is PVP armours ffs, a chance of getting that 40m vesta longsword, not a dull statue that you swap for coins. Fuck what the boring pvmers said on the polls and do what you know is right. Bring them back!!!

I wasnt making that much money in revs, much less than shown in your collected data [~900k per h]. Most of the players who were making 2m per hour were maxed combats, who would PVM that kind of money anyways in Zulrah or somewhere else, but there they had risk and made content for PVPers aswell. BUT I still kept playing with my friend because it was so much fun, we are complete noobs but we sometimes could counter attack some not-so-pro PVPers. Was so much fun,went again today - loot is not worth mentioning and caves are emty. Seems like moving backwards.

Removing cannons was good idea, everything else just dissapointing.

As previously stated by the 17 pages of complaints, MODS OF RUNESCAPE YOU CLEARLY F+++ED UP, and you need to own up to your mistakes and fix it ASAP. You guys constantly hit us with this bullshit about how it is a game for the players and the polls are a vital part of the game, and then you go behind our backs and make this update. This is void nerf 2.0. I completely understand the economy is sensitive, but why not make it so PVM outside of the wilderness has consequence if you die, instead of taking the best wilderness update of the last like 5 years and destroying it? How dumb is it that you can die to a boss, and then run back and not only get your items back, but your literal supplies and sitting on the ground and therefore you now have double the supplies and can get more drops. PVM death should be a money sink, so stop acting like you guys handle the economy properly anyways. Revs atleast uses supplies + the pkers. Removing the cannons was reasonable, but why didn't you wait at-least another week after removing cannons to see the impact on the drops? Why go 0-100 and again with no polling? I also want to know how you can NERF revs with no polls, but when it comes to PVP amours, suddenly the polls are godly and we have to follow what the people want. You have 17 pages of literal proof you handled the revs extremely poorly, so stop trying to feed us BS lies like, "we will look at the data, and reevaluate in mid March" I can give you a summary of the data, no one is there, everyone avoids revs like it has an STD, and you ruined the content. So stop patting yourselves on the back for making a cowhide birthday suit, and fix the revs. Bring back old drop table, keep cannons removed and watch the data. If the drops are still too high after a week, increase difficulty of killing revs, or keep the area of revs multi, but make the rev monsters single combat. 1000% solutions, fix the revs and YOU SHOULD HAVE TO HAVE 50KC IN WILDERNESS TO VOTE ON PVP CONTENT!

They BUFFED the revs with no poll too. See how that works? And it's not 17 pages of "literal proof" they "handled the revs extremely poorly" because there are several posts thanking them for this nerf. They put the integrity of the game over ALL groups of players (and good for them for doing it!).

Clearly it wasn't the revs y'all 'liked', it was the mass cash you could get from it (and now you can only get from it what was polled.. bummer.. not).

Andrew didn't give the game to anybody.. he SOLD OUT. The company that owns it now isn't likely to be "giving the game back to him" because they invested a whole lotta money that they expect to recoup. I suspect they didn't buy it just so they could give it.. to anybody. =)

Well something is usually better than nothing, & if the game collapses, who will bring in a pay-cheque then, darling?

As stated, Andrew Gower never released a dud update. Maybe it's time for the Dev-team to get some advice from a professional.

You know, RS looking at it from business perspective. But I bet, they will lose alot of money because of this. I know alot of people who had 3-5 accounts member. Just because of Revs. I know alot of players, That came back from PUBG and LoL, Just to pk or pvm at revs. We dont care about the money that was made there. We care about the activity there. It was crowded. It was fun. It was chaos. It was WILDERNESS.
You took the only crowded PVP area away. Nobody gives a fck about the GPH. Maybe some PVMers. But for PKers, it was the place to go. For PVMers, it was the place to go. It was the first area where PVPers and PVMers to clash. Find another way to get it crowded, Without GP/H. Make m drop brawler gloves. Idgaf. Make it crowded somehow. And you can put these "OP" drops somewhere where the sun dont shine.
