I really hope we have endured that content drought now - seven patch weeks in a row is a record for that aspect - albeit at least every single one of them had a bit of impact.

"Damage received when playing Pyramid Plunder has been changed to feel more in-line with EoC."

Wouldn't it have been more adequate to fully revamp this thing to make it both viable as well as enjoyable in 2019? I mean sure that fix was in order, but all it achieved this way is to make an already fairly bad activity even more rancid.

"The examine text for Compressed Anima in the Shattered Worlds Reward shop has been updated to reflect its recent change with the Sigil Removal update."

Do you have some plans with it - or why does it even exist now? Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2

Yay, more patches fixing issues. Hope there will be more simmilar patches in September.

On a side note, when will Jagex be introducing Antialising of items in inventory or in bank? A majority of everything else is antialising correctly, expert for the images of items in bank or in inventory. This is not a computer issue, as I have noticed it on my old laptop and even on my new laptop that is only 3 months old. I always have the latest drivers installed. Antialising setting is set to Ultra. JAGEX PLEASE START PLANING FOR A 300Million Account Event.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Quick find code: 185-186-627-65997434

7th consecutive patch week + dailyscape, with more handouts in the form of a raffle... for which you've added MTX as well. Disappointing, where's the actual content?




Patch Notes
You might have noticed that things have been a bit quiet on the updates front, mainly because we’re all very busy making improvements to existing game content. Have a look at the changes and improvements we’ve made this week.

^Thats what the main page says... seems like someone just headed to the patch notes post instead of reading the actual news

thanks jagex for fixing the game as much as yall can

"Quick chat Creatures of the Lost grove is now capitalized correctly."

oh, yeah, THAT'S the kind of updates which finally solves all the problems of this game :D [/sarcasm]

see you all on wow classic lads

Disappointing, another week of fixing typo's combined with a QA live stream that didn't Answer any Questions makes me wonder how far ahead Jagex is looking, it's definitely not looking at long-term health anymore.
Start every day off with a smile and get it over with.

Sentinel fragments and strange rocks can now be gained from Bloodwood trees.
Apparently this also allows us to proc GotE from bloodwood trees, hopefully event currencies will work now too.

Finally, after making well over 1m bolts, this is fixed, I was so taken aback by it I forgot to use LotD, not that I was going to get HSR anyways :( °l||l° Modest Skillers T7 Citadel | Skilling clan recruiting players. °l||l°

As a player, especially a subscribed one, it's more than a little concerning when the biggest update to happen in two months' time is content removal (i.e., the "sigil" slot).

Where are all the proposed quests? Or actual holiday events? A new Achievement Diary set reward ("item" slot is still free, I believe), perhaps? What about more low and mid-level bosses, so people aren't pressured to reach the endgame asap? More low-level and mid-level content in general, really. Heck, actually revitalizing the Wilderness would definitely breathe some life into the game. For one, make Wilderness Slayer actually lucrative and improve the Revs' drop tables. Most importantly, focus on improving the F2P experience (e.g. making farming the first Bond not so nightmarish), so people will want to stick around even after their membership lapses.

A game that doesn't draw new players will die. It's not a matter of if, but when . And it's not just that -- with these perpetual weeks of minimal updates and non-updates, you're not only failing to attract newcomers; you're failing to retain the vets as well. At this rate, the playerbase will have dwindled to nothing by the time Mobile (which nobody asked for, mind) is finally released. And sure, you'll see a jump in MTX sales and even subscriptions... at first. The issue with mobile gamers, however, is that they're not loyal. Not like PC gamers. The minute they see a better alternative, they'll be jumping ship and leaving you in the wind. And you'll have alienated all but the most loyal of your core playerbase by that point. :/

-EDIT- OSRS' weekly update was pretty lacking this week as well, but at least they regularly take player feedback into account. When's the last time we even had a poll in this iteration? Well over a year ago? I mean, is it even a surprise that the devs today are so disconnected from the players? “Nothing is so common as the wish to be remarkable.”
