I am not understanding Jagex's logic. This game is meant to be catered to the players. The players (clearly shown on this very thread) are demanding/begging/asking for EP to be implemented. Or some form of incentive for killing a target.

If the players want this, then why would you deny them the right? It shouldn't matter how it effects the economy (which by the way, it would benefit the economy, and I would be happy to slice any debate you possibly have for this) But, regardless of how it effects the economy, this shouldn't have any relevance since this is a player-driven game.

You seem to be forgetting the majority of us came back for old combat system +pking/warring. During EP days , the wild was THRIVING , and a very enjoyable/profitable atmosphere. Not to mention this was runescapes overall PEAK in the amount of players online at one given time.

The wild SHOULD be the best place to make money. You are risking in order to receive rewards. Regardless of any debate you can possibly have, which is fallacious anyway, this should be polled with a extensively detailed blog

This is "Power to the players" after all, is it not?

Should we add Bounty Hunter as described in the developer blog 'Bounty Hunter 2'? (QFC: 317-318-782-65427484)
Yes 64% (11727 votes)
No 36% (6544 votes)

Since it was under 75% they will change it in such a way that it's new just so they didn't waste time on creating something that was voted down by the players.

A vocal minority want EP added.

Risk doesn't automatically lead to rewards, either. If I walk around fishing with 1 hp and a stack of 10 mil gold and a rock cake, I don't make more money.

Good PKers should make money. Sure, pures run low risk sets to minimize costs, but not everyone plays like that.

You're right, good PKers should make money, but that's not the case due to the fact that black chaps and a str ammy don't cover the cost of an inventory of sharks. Rewards are needed, EP is the answer.

Making a horrible mistake giving into all these crying skillers by not giving pkers the extra loot they need and actually deserve. Incase you forget, one of the biggest draws to RS07 was the pking/old combats system. Please don't forget that.

Exactly. I mean, skillers get clan wars..... WTF

Need an added incentive or this is just a pointless update that chooses a fight for you that you might not even want.

It's a shame this will pass poll...

^^ I've always considered PvP the end-game of any MMO. In that sense I'd say there should be a small added bonus. I'd say something along the lines of statuettes, but maybe not as rewarding as the previous ones. In F2P statuettes didn't become the best way to make money, woodcutting was still the top dog.

Jagex is failing, it seems as if they will do anything/everything THEY WANT so long as it is "new" or different to what we had declined/or voted for


This game trips me out. jagex is a trip

as i remember bh craters were so popular that tons and tons of players always played it and even many many many many clans were succesfullt made. Boy did that feel like a different a much better/more exciting game
