I think that for us players who are not ironmen but also wish to solo corp get teams who wait for us to lower the guy then rush in and crash you i have seen it done over and over and over. There should be some sort of paying room or something where you choose that you're going to solo or with a team. Somehow it would have to let you teleport yourself in and out like let's say you pay for the room you have it for x amount of hours/time so you would be able to teleport to house to reset speccing bar. Have nothing against any other updates i just hate it when you have people who just wait on your team or anyone who solos to do all the speccing to just rush in and get the kill without them getting into any sort of trouble or having some sort of penalty to them

Greatly appreciate these upcoming changes, especially the ones concerning griefing. I'm not confident the level 50 Iron man only limit is going to completely stop the problems that occur at Corp, but it's certainly a colossal step in the right direction and I'm incredibly thankful for it!

Thank you for looking out and doing something about these issues!

PLEASE Stop forcing/"tweaking" your own updates in without a poll. POLL EVERYTHING so the community has a say so.

How about no? Game integrity is a thing that Jagex values for both games.

If you or anyone else thinks that your opinion on silly polls ABOUT game integrity is more important that the integrity itself, you should not be on either RS.

Also lol @ the people who want summoning in OS, yet some OS people call it "easyscape". Make up your damn minds.

You could just allow ironmen to create instances...

Or you know... you could just focus on creating new content instead of streamer favoritism *ahem* I mean game integrity :P

100% agree. Streamer favoritism is one reason I stopped playing OSRS for a while, alongside other reasons I won't go into here.

You can tell the OSRS community is bad when they want to HURT ironman mode by saying "Oh, but ironmen choose to limit themselves!" Crashing is fucking stupid, guys, so many of you would get pissy if it were you being crashed most anywhere, let alone at Corp... Oh, I almost forgot.
Oh, I already forgot.

I think the griefing changes are amazing! I would love to see more of them and I hope that this becomes more of a focus for future updates. Focusing on fixing existing content is so much better than pumping out new after new update especially for a game like OSRS. Hope other bosses(KQ soon plz) and other areas in general are also looked at as making changes such as these also improves overcrowding which is one of the most unpleasant things.

That said, I think the combat level should be raised to at least 100, 50 is incredibly easy to achieve. I also hope this is not the end-all solution, it's a great step but I think the best final solution would be to work out some sort of instance. Perhaps one that remembers the damage done and HP of corp for the next hour so that the current(and only) viable method for ironman remains, but eliminating all problems--people can still rag, and it wouldn't be too difficult to get another account... now it just has to be ironman and over cmbt 50, people will definitely find a way...

Finally regarding your statement regarding integrity changes, I am so gosh darn proud and happy the team is taking time with their decisions, reviewing them amongst themselves and just as importantly the community. Looking forward to seeing this amazing game get better!

I sat there biting my lip in anticipation when I saw the title "Bounty Hunter and PvP World Schedules" and thought to myself, OMG finally Jagex is listening, playing Bounty Hunter in Australia may be possible for once EVEN if its for a short period of time.... Only to see no mention of Australia in the PvP schedule.

This is so wrong, why make any change for the better if it only betters a certain demographic? The schedule should be constantly rotating EACH WEEK to EACH REGION, w1 UK, w2 USA, w3 GERMANY, w4 AUSTRALIA, constantly rotating, not just basing it in the most popular "PVP" demographics. Ever since the release of old school, aussie and german pkers have been shafted big time and I think this may be the one opportunity for the shafting to stop and for it to FINALLY be fair.
Currently, aussies dont BH on USA and UK worlds so youre missing a big playerbase there.

If the bounty hunter and standard pvp worlds were evenly shared by each country for the exact same amount of time each month, you would have no gripe from any of the regions. This ensures fairness across the whole playerbase and may even encourage a lot more aussies to actually take up pvp.

Currently I don't even bother keeping my pure/zerker accounts active with membership because BH is just a loot giveaway to whoever i'm up against.

There are 4 region types in this game. UK, USA, GERMANY, AUSTRALIA. So why should they not be all treated equally instead based on their "population percentages", even if you had a sole BH world for aussies to pk on, nobody would complain, it wouldnt effect the normal BH worlds whatsoever.

Instead I have to wake up every day and watch my favourite pkers youtube channels and their pking to get the rush from the pvp aspect of the game that I (an aussie) am not entitled to according to (jagex and the rest of the world).

Sorry if this looks like a rant, but it's written out of pure passion for the game and the extreme desire to be able to do PvP content fairly.

I implore a JMod to read my comment and take it as subjective criticism, this is my favorite game.

I dislike the updates that are catering to iron men. Iron men can become frustrated with the difficulty or tedious-ness of certain monsters or activities, HOWEVER people who choose to play iron man are CHOOSING to limit themselves. I feel like the iron-man only monster areas are a slippery slope. What is next, a THIRD dagannoth kings lair for iron men? An iron man only slayer tower/cave? Maybe even boss rooms catered to hardcore iron men, where the monsters are not aggressive until you attack them, to protect people from wrongful disconnect deaths. Iron men choose to limit themselves just like "pure" accounts do. I understand this would not affect the main games economy, however I think game integrity comes into play here. Isn't the spirit of iron man mode to stand alone and play the game as it is, accepting the difficulty and trivial things that comes along with it? If an Iron man is getting griefed, consistently having the same player attack the monster they are killing, there is a report abuse option for "disruptive behavior."

Yeah what's next! Are they gonna allow people to marry their dog? Wait, wait a minute...
You and I both know reporting a griefer does nothing in the moment, or if at all. Ironman is a supported game mode. There is no such thing as catering your play style to suit the game when you are crashed as an ironman. They clearly stated that the reasons for the corp and godwars change was because of the tediousness of the task. Getting the gear to solo that content effectively is difficult enough as an ironman. But all someone has to do is mage longbow spec and you lose any progress put towards that kill. And that's what Jagex aims to fix, and rightly so.
