Ref the arma crossbow,

i think the bow and spec is a good idea we have little items as rangers with specs and im sure to get hold of a bow with better bonuses and a awesome spec such as the one offered will take alot of effort to get hold of one, or alot of time to make the monye to buy one, as the price of this item would be very high. As for being able to one hit armadyl boss with a weapon so powerful well.. if u have 6 people with ags fighting the bandos boss it gets owned too? if you are lucky enough to get this item as a drop you have earned then the reward should be great, back in 2006 the Magic shortbow use to be 50% for a spec, which was changed to 60% as it was over powered? yet with a dds u can hit 30-30 and you can use it 4 times?

arma crossbow should be offered how you have explained weather itwill pass or not i dont know, but it would be nice to see this released.

Why is NEW content being added to an OLD version of the game?
Jagex, y u do dis

People keep asking for new content in this version of the game. So what we do is we offer content in a poll, and only develop the stuff that gets 75% support. That way, it's strongly biased towards keep the game unchanged unless the vast majority of the community votes in favour of the update.


In that case, I would like to lobby a request to poll a name change to " Old school[/b]" Runescape, the name to be decided upon by poll if the name change poll passes.

I would honestly be much less angry and hate you all much less, to the extent of possibly not hating you at all, if " Old school" had a name revamp to reflect what it actually is, that being, NOT " Old school".

Ever since Jagex decisions on Oldschool mixed with the communities voting response ruined what I had hoped Oldschool was going to be, a 2007 version of Runescape (I'd even accept the GWD in the definition of "2007 version" because it was 2007...), the name of it has bothered me worse than the actual never before created content being added to the game.

Oldschool does not at all reflect was "Oldschool" Runescape has become.
While I can't trust the players to vote to change the name... I'd at least feel better even if it didn't pass that at least you acknowledge that Oldschool isn't worthy of the name "Oldschool", since, well, it isn't Oldschool.

I suppose it doesn't help either that a worryingly large number of Old School players are drug abusers.
...or maybe it would help. I can't really tell, because they're drug abusers.

Strongly disagree with adding more stats to the rings. Why overpower the game common lets not go to the path of rs3 specially with an update which is similar to rs3 mob armies! if we slowly add stats to everything combat will become overpowered.

-I agree that crystal bow needs an update its quite difficult to get and also expensive and the update doesn't affect the game as much it just makes the crystal bow more useful.
- Trimmed quest cape also sounds great doesn't affect the game as much ether because fire cape and other quest capes have similar stats and makes sense for that mini-game which is based on quests to give that reward.

This is the right way to update the game :) OSRS will survive for years if these amazing updates continue.


none of these are amazing as i look at it. and none of them are old school. in a few years down the road dont be surprised with the loss of actual old school players there will be. This game will definally not survive any better with the updates but will rather decline it from the actual old school community. once a games damaged its damaged you cant fix it you cant revive the population as much as you believe you think you can.

I hope we can successfully drive you and the like out of the community. This is not the game for you. Old school will be updated and you cant do anything about it. I would unsubscribe asap so you don't waste anymore of your time. Maybe Duke Nukem is more of your cup of tea.


tell me in which world driving a gaming community out of existence is ever good?

"This is not the game for you. Old school will be updated and you cant do anything about it." - goat600

Actually there is something you can do, vote! This game has been set-up as a game decided by the community. Anything that can be voted on can also be voted against. One thing this community has been famous for over the last 5-7 year is complaining, and we are sure good at this. Nobody is going to stop it. No matter the update/news post/poll somebody will get on here and post their nonsense and opinions about it.

The only things that matter are the game itself, and the polls you vote in. And if you choose not to vote, your choice, but by all means complain anyways. Anything anybody(Aside from J-Mods) else says is false.


agree

Does jagex know people are creating accounts with just doing the 8 quests to do lunar bosses
and using that account to start dreams with the people that shared the account so they get like 4m+ p/h and god knows how much more when new rewards are out?
