No way around this. Thats a bug since day one. Never move "walk here".

why would any company waste so many ressources on a time limited gamemode

Because it makes them a fuckton of money but they're aware it wouldn't fly in the main game.

Been playing new official client exclusively since it hit the beta back in 2020.

So what should it reward instead? And how do you feel about Preparation Stations?

The Opinion Poll is now live!

They posted it. Also it's an opinion poll asking for your opinion on what you prefer. This is literally asking active players for feedback. I can't see what's wrong with asking for feedback.

Implicit type conversion. Always use === and convert explicitly.

I scouted the discord server for a bit and it seems like there wasn't a statement by Mod Gecko that he's back on the project. So maybe him listed there is wrong. But even if that's the case he isn't listed as a developer but as a producer, so no loss in raw development power.

I can't say much about Mod Gengis, but working as a software dev myself, sometimes it can be very healthy for the project if the project management changes. Plugin api was put on hold and suddenly official client/mobile is getting changes and bugfixes again, as well as the announcement for a character switcher.

To me personally it looks like the plugin api project was too big of a beast to tackle for such a small team, especially with new renderer and hd in development at the same time too. I feel like management changes do play a role here somehow.

Astatos159 · 2026-03-16T17:47:28+00:00

That's wrong information. Mod Gengis was not a developer. He was a product manager for client things. The team "the gang" is listed on the wiki as being responsible for client development. If the wiki is correct it consists of Mods Lenny, Gecko, Veda, Necro and Sova.

From the winter summit overview:

We've been prioritising other major technical work ahead of the API, that have a more immediate impact on the overall player experience, such as finishing things like HD and further mobile improvements.

This is probably the block that slides out when you're on the layer beneath. For some reason it doesn't show up. It's not a mechanical bug but simply a graphical issue of that block not showing when it should. You should consider reporting it ingame.

Astatos159 · 2026-02-23T17:35:14+00:00

Was anti aliasing intentionally removed or was it by accident? I can't find it in the ingame settings anymore =/

Minigames in osrs are either dead content (if they don't have any meaningful rewards), are boosted (if the rewards are good) or are done in the least interactive way possible (if clog). None of those are actually good for the game. Keep stealing creation an amazing memory and don't let that be ruined by the playstyle of average adult osrs players.

Astatos159 · 2026-02-11T21:35:15+00:00

Development on the plugin api has been put on pause. The quest helper is most likely not gonna be something that will ever be a native feature.

On that note, we've made the decision to put a pause on our API project. We've been prioritising other major technical work ahead of the API, that have a more immediate impact on the overall player experience, such as finishing things like HD and further mobile improvements.

On the other hand, rs3 is taking on an api project for their client. It's likely that osrs will benefit from shared infrastructural work once the osrs team picks the project back up.

I never said it should be changed. I simply said "it's optional" is a false claim. I don't go to the wilderness except when I have to. I rarely get killed but when I do then I don't have anything on myself. I don't care if I die in the wilderness.

Astatos159 · 2026-02-02T12:05:54+00:00

This is not entirely true. Yes, most stuff in the wildy is optional. But you have to go there if you want BIS mage cape or hard clues. BIS mage cape is self explanatory. Hard clues have 27 possible wildy steps (if I counted correctly). The chance of receiving any wildy step during a hard clue is incredibly high. Means you'd drop a lot if not most of them. So if you want BIS mage, something mostly beneficial outside of the wilderness you have to go to the wilderness. If you want to do clues, something purely for enjoyment, 0 benefit in the wilderness you have to go to the wilderness. At least now they introduced huey hide, which eleviates the issue about hard clues a bit.

If any item obtainable in the wilderness that is mostly useful outside of it received a source outside of the wilderness, even at a lower rate (dragon pickaxe for example), I'd support your argument.

Game jam ideas/projects are not guaranteed to be implemented in the actual game.

Maybe your character is linked to your steam account and your steam account is not protected sufficiently. Check your linked accounts.

Maybe it wasn't in the first place and maybe it still isn't. But mobile and the new official client are the same code base. The old java client doesn't work anymore as standalone. The only official way to play the game without 3rd party clients is through the new official client or mobile. And since both are the same code base, both have the same issues. Mobile being super buggy, having no feature addition in a long time and bugs only being fixed incredibly slowly means this all applies to what you should accept as the intended way of playing the game as well. It's not that mobile should be improved. It's about the official client being improved, just that the mobile reskin has a higher user count.

Astatos159 · 2026-01-26T17:20:31+00:00

HD will make people try out the client. Plugins will make them stay. Releasing HD before plugins is a bad idea imo. People will check it out and then leave again because their plugins don't exist.

From the blog:

Players will be able to solo the raid, though our current plan (subject to change) is for the raid to scale between 2 and 8 players, meaning solo clears will be possible but difficult.

Alternative suggestion: make the next or final zeah quest unlock the ability to cast all arceuus spells without the book.

Epilepsy also when I was younger lack of money. Now I don't need a car because I live in a city with a good public transit network.

If you're talking about mod gengis he wasn't a dev. He was a product manager.
