I love the Port Roberts idea, honestly the new continent is one of the best ideas Jagex has ever had for the game.

New name for the new continent:
Altena

Sounds ancient, yet elegant.

A few questions/thoughts:

- Are you considering using a similar system to Port Roberts to track what you do on the new continent so that all of your actions(or at least ones that somewhat matter) have varying good and bad bonuses?

- With mention of an underwater city, would you consider adding the sunk treasures from the end of Olaf's Quest? Could be a new form of Clue Scrolls/Champ Scrolls unique to the Continent, and replacing those drops on it.

- A few pages back someone mentioned random weather for towns/the continent that offer different positive and negative effects based on what it is, this seems like a really cool idea and if it is localized to just one town that could possibly draw people there for this unique mechanic. What are your thoughts on this?


Finally, and probably most importantly:
- Would you consider having an underground Mole City (personal reason, been wanting one for ever)?


Overall though, sounds very exciting and can't wait to watch it grow.

Would be nice to continue on from that quest which seemed to leave it open as a possibility. "If good things lasted forever, would we appreciate how precious they are?" - Bill Watterson

Maybe there could be a chain of quests that relate to diplomacy. Once the new continent is discovered, the rulers of various kingdoms in the current continent might want to form alliances with the people from the new continent.

Also..perhaps instead of gnome gliders taking you to five different places you can fly dragons? but not literally fly them just show a map and a dragon moving across it similarly like with the gnome gliders.

Maybe add the Forestry mini game, geomancy as a new continent mining extension, and herding as a new continent hunter extension?

Underwater city -> Davy Jones' Locker -> Jar of dirt ?

And a place to kill cave kraken/kraken boss OUTSIDE of the slayer dungeon?! (but still only able to kill them on task)

Will you guys ever release Prifddinnas and Menaphos? I'd really like to see these areas opened up. Maybe a new desert boss in Menaphos?

For one of the towns, do something like the Do No Evil quest and in Aid of the Myreque did. By this I mean have the player help build the town. I really enjoyed that content. Maybe allow us to use resources near a town to help build it. The more we build, the better the content and the nicer it will look as well as more people coming to the town.

Also I'd really like for you guys to revamp barrows armour sets sometime soon.
