Bump. Page 12. Weird how the first post on last page is from December 2013. Things sure do crawl around here. XD
Sorry to hear about the combat change bugging you. I don't like it either. I was used to the EoC system 100% and now it's this weird hybrid crap. I remember 2005-2009 era RS because that's when I played the most, and I remember especially well when Summoning came out January of 2008 and the max jumped to 138 from 126 and that was just...wow, amazing, higher levels.
Now I'm 131. Huh. Annoying. Prayer and Constitution now matter again, which (combined with your 10 defense and your unfortunate 3 Summoning) have made you combat level 29. Oh well.
I wouldn't hold out on them actually forking the game...again, that is, considering OSRS is
technically
a fork itself. Or, if you wanna get really
really
technical, RS3/EoC/this is actually a fork of OSRS, considering OSRS represents the original source code base from which RS3 has evolved...just that OSRS is a snapshot not previously publicly available...whatever.
Who knows. Maybe there will eventually some sort of server selection in which one can choose between EoC OR "Legacy mode" instead of this weird system in which they're layered on top of each other such that I can be using EoC abilities and such whilst my opponent uses legacy mode "hands-off" kinda combat and...the advantages may be limited and sure it might be totally fair to both players, but come on...it's like painting over a wall again and again until the actual volume of the room is physically lowered.
I guess, anyway. Leave me alone it's 4 in the morning okay.
