However bounty hunter craters is an Amazing Idea, It will keep the server old school and people will love it!, by adding Pvp worlds people will start wanting vestas bla bla bla, thats killing OSRS, I say add bh craters.


The crater was introduced as a way to please pkers when the wilderness was made redundant. It is just a smaller confined version of the current wilderness.

Wildy Tag sounds cool. If it works well in OSRS, I'd kind of like that in the main game too. Why not, really?

Still staunchly against the GWD. Wouldn't that require completely rebuilding all the models and junk to look old schooly, since it's been graphically overhauled since its creation? That'd take forever, and detract valuable development time from RS3.

Something that seems a bit overlooked with cash rewards for these activities and those valuable statues is the amount of inflation they bring... It's an unhealthy amount and with no rare bubble where is this money going to go?

Also with this wildy tag thing surely you can't do that in every world especially if the rewards are so high as people in low populated worlds a little bit after release could essentially rim this out for money rendering skilling pointless for the average player which will lead to over inflated skilling supplies, and also what about little level 3's running around that won't be able to get killed and on the other end of the scale the 126's running around that not many people can attack. These are quite big concerns as I feel this one could ruin the game.

Gwd - Really really want this, I love that you haven't just neglected 07 like I feared at first, thought it might just be a bit of a publicity stunt but thanks for it not being one. Also about the weapons being overpowered, it's only the ags that could potentially be overpowered, but even then a dds can still hit 80's and dragon bolts hit random 60's, but another thing that maybe you could maybe think about would be adding the staff of light to one of the gwd bosses (zammy probs) drop tables, then again it probably won't have mage damage bonus. As range is balanced with melee at the minute imo, the only thing lacking would be a better magic staff.

Clan wars - Not really enthusiastic about this, but others might be.

I would love to see PvP worlds and Clan Wars back.
And even if the Godwars does come out then I wouldn't mind there being small changes. The drops should kind of be made rarer which would not bring in too many of those items in the game ruining the economy. And the armadyl and zamorak magic staves would be really epic.
Bounty Hunter craters would also be really amazing if they can be introduced.

Hmm the idea of the kracken seems pretty cool but wildy tag seems pretty cool as well. I feel if something new is created maybe the player base would expand a bit more but if something that is currently in the live game suck as clan wars is added I feel it could possibly kill the game.

Why clan wars should never be launched into OSRS
The pros to clan wars: Safe pvp fights (meaning you don't lose your items.)

The cons: Less clans will be active in the wilderness. (clans will hide in clan wars like pre eoc)

While the OSRS community is built around the solid core of PvP. When you die in clan wars during a war its like "oh I died, I better grab more pots and food and be ready for round two."

While in the wilderness if you die there is no keeping all of your gear when you die. Which is why a vast majority of pkers should be against clan wars, Runescape is one of the few mmorpg's where you can kill someone and take their stuff.

Another thing I would like to see added into the OSRS game is pvp weapons & armour such as vestas or statius. Those were some of the best times I've ever had pking. Whip and dds are simple and get the job done but nothing says I love you to your opponent like a vesta longsword spec.

I also have a few questions about the game that people should ask themselves.

"where will this game be next year?"
"where will this game be in five years?"
"what effect will pk worlds have on botting?"
"How will jagex control the influx of bots in the wilderness after adding pk worlds?"
"how many clans will be active in the wilderness if clan wars is added again?"

I know my post kind of covers a few subjects and may not be grammatically correct , but its serious thought and input from clan friends and other friends in the game. Looking forward to seeing some replies. If possible I would love to interview a jmod about osrs and ask some serious questions about the future of the game and the current state of the game. :)
