Novel ideas, but any kind of survival aspect would likely render the area dead content to the majority of players, or an unneeded annoyance to everyone. Same with the ridiculous ideas about seperate banks, hard transportation between the continent and runescape, etc.ou

I second most of this post especially the part about the adamant dragon with the dragonkite. Maybe have him deep in a cavern or maybe have him be a boss as a part of the new Colosseum thus adding another idea i have.

To have an easy/medium/hard Colosseum pvm matches with waves of monsters similar to the the Jad. Including the adamant dragon and other bosses we see throughout runescape and new ones too. Perhaps these bosses wouldnt give you the same drops as the would in their respected arena but maybe after you slay them you could get points towards new rewards. The more damage you deal within your team the more points you will get.

Also seeing an underwater like city (atlantis) would be awesome to be able to add in mermaids and other fishlike monster would be interspersing. also by doing this rs may be able to add in a god of the sea similar to Possiden.

Adding in some new potions and herbs would be very nice as the potion market right now is capped w prayer potions being 16k ea, so itd be nice to see some new perhaps better potions (super prayer for example) to come along and have the focus of the community thus hopefully balancing prayer potions back down to their respected 12k or something close. but please also include other new potions, maybe a waterbreathing potion for playing under water? Similar to gillyweed from harry potter haha.

NEW MONSTERS PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! We need something new, even though you guys have added a lot already which we love you for, MORE IS BETTER!

oh and bring back corp too
haha good day to ya

I think a snowy environment opens up possibilities for content which would only fit in a snowy area and would not be able to be done well without the snow and cold in the area. I think players have visions for ideas that require a snowy area to be made, and that is why so many want a snowy area. Its nice to have different types of environments to play in and to be creative with suggestions for. Hi.

If we went by whats been posted in this thread, this new continent would be a cluster**** of halfassed ideas and bad mechanics. I feel like most people are just suggesting the first thing that comes to mind out of excitement and desire to see their ideas become reality ingame. I would take precaution in changing anything yet.

A new continent could have all types of environments, snow and cold to the north or south or even east or west, deserts, swamps, forests, grasslands, barren areas, water, mountains, flatlands, mesas, etc.

A lot of different ideas could fit on the same continent divided by varying terrain and climates. Hi.

I'm talking about abitrary game mechanics that would limit or completely kill any non-niched use of these areas. Yes it would be cool to see the exact same thing we already have, but do we need it? What new does it offer us? What can it do that that similar regions of RS can't?
