Fun idea!! I personally would just like the area open to all. I've been playing a few months and still can't get into the elf land so it is dead content to me til I can. Also I like areas where there are high and low levels players, combat and skillers together. To me it's more social, easier to buy and sell etc. Get a lot of help from other people. The lower level players who couldn't get in would miss out on all the beginning fun of a new place.

And I'm still wanting those heels!! We need a cobbler. A girl can never have too many shoes.

And can someone tell me where you list ideas for Ninja fixes like:
1: can tree nests make a noise when dropped like the strange plant warns you it's coming
2: Can the watchtower tele land outside of tower, the blue light is hard on some eyes
3: We need a use for all the extra frog tokens we get
4: and you explained about construction being hard to fix (ty) there is a 9 second delay in entering and another 9 second delay in going into building mode.

Thx for help and looking forward to new continent.

I thought to myself when reading other dev blogs about other amazing updates coming such as the slayer blog or clue expansion to name a few, that there couldnt be another update that would be better but this update has to be the best update that will ever come. Ive been proven wrong other times thats for sure and if another update can beat this then i cain* wait for the future. Take your time and make this update amazing but hurry because I cannot wait for this update! :D

Can only say this: area with snow and penguins pls


Also that.

Yes penguins pls

And there'd better be some nice places to pick cabbage on this continent!


Sounds great, really like the Port Roberts idea. It kinda reminded me of the gnome/khazard battle in that you can pick a side there, but no matter how many we kill of either side there it makes no difference. Would be fun if there was some sort of battlefield like that on the new continent, but one which we can actually influence by attacking or defending for either side.
Cabbage? CABBAGE!

With the Continent Update It would be cool to have a Greek feel to it With the gladiators Bosses of the lost Quests for survival Time consuming Areas to explore with the new Artisan Skill New Construction Wall Styles and Room More Poh Portals For Example In The New Town and in other places like Ardougne New Weapons and armor for only the worthy Give a new feel to the world and make Oldschool Something to NEVER FORGET!

I was a huge Tolkien fan when i started playing Runescape and i was happy to see that this game was able to offer similar content. Probably thats the reason why i am still playing it today, nearly 12 years later. In my opinion Runescape became so popular and fun because it was able to adapt heroic/fantasy content from literature and northern mythology - i'm talking of an early stage of Runescape, not the later years, where this fun content was gone and many updates were largely based on other games not the source direct.

I must say, that i really like the new continent idea. This offers us an opportunity to expand this wonderful game in its oldschool style.
What would i expect from the new continent?
1. I would really like a new dwarven city, not as big as Keldagrim maybe but more like a new outpost. This could be bind with a fun quest about dwarves discovering new lands and new sources for metal and gem. As we are talking about a new wild continent, i defenitly would expect dwarves facing dragons and other dangers in their attempt to build a new realm or colony.
2. I like the elven lands and been waiting for Prif. to be updated for a very long time but this far i feel, that the elven content has been too narrow and maybe the new continent could offer us some new darker lands with different groups of elves.
3. Love your idea about the port city and trade outpost. Maybe this city could be the start for discovering the new continent (quest perhaps). A city filled with different races, where you can meet some fun characters who can offer you new adventures and quests which lead you to the depths of the new continent.

Just some of my thoughts ;)

I really enjoyed the read. Looking forward to seeing additional ideas. Could also host a PDC for a mini-game/boss encounter/quest in the new continent as well! Everything stated here is forwarded from a major corporation. Nothing here is my opinion. Enjoy your salad.
