An example would be an idea I had for further 'Sea trawlers' around the continent. Adding more entrance options with the possibility of unique food from each different location might inspire more people to interact and engage with the existing trawler. This will also allow us to plug the level difference between many of the fishing levels and generate a much wider interest in the fishing trawler.


The fishing Trawler might be more fun and interesting if you were actually fishing instead of running around patching holes in the ship.

Like letting out and reeling in nets, using fishing lines, baiting hooks, cutting bait, using lobster pots, etc. You could also train strength and agility this way.

This is so cool! I think it can be an absolutely game changing update (in a great way!) but we have to really go into this a lot of the mechanics and hope you guys keep using the feedback of the community to develop this!

In any case I am so excited about this!!!

Too many posts to quote, but there seems to be a lot of love for a polar area with heavy snow fall. Out of curiosity, why? No one's fully explained why they want snow but made it damn clear there should be an area for it!

I'm fine with adding polar areas although I'm not sure if we can go down the penguin route as well as Mod Nancy did with the current RS3 storyline.

What about woolly mammoths, snowshoes, skiiing, snowmen and snowball fights, sleds, acrtic cats, snowy owls, abominable snowmen, ice fishing, ice skating and ice roads etc.?

I was thinking something similar, I was just about to edit in how firemaking could be more useful in an arctic area, when I saw your post about it.

That idea has cropped up alongside the same polar ideas and whilst I fully support embedding firemaking into such an area with the reliance on the warmth and general survival, I jus t want to know why there's such a demand for it!

There's space for the area and we even have polar assets in the archive somewhere so I can definitely go ahead with it :)
