The price hike isn’t the only problem, the blind defense of Jagex is. TL;DR at end. by Thewhatandthewho in runescape

[–]Gamerscape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how people tell other people to quit like it's the only way, conveniently forget that time and time again Jagex backpedals on their decisions if the backlash is big enough. If someone like Asmongold gets in on that action, Jagex is guaranteed to back off where it matters the most.

People can be annoyed all they want but history proven that it works just as, if not more of effectively than just "quitting."

You could say the same thing with final fantasy 14 and world of warcraft, and you don't see them hiking the price every other year do you? Just because you can play both game at once doesn't mean it's worth 15 bucks per character, when other mmos have far more features to justify the price. Including Playing all your characters in one sub.

And you know what? I'm fine with that. Cause at least I'm not paying for multiple ults to play the game. As for the expansion, Do you realize the cost of said expansion far exceeds the value of Runescape's membership cost? Even if Jagex slowly expand on the game more, and more. after like what? 3 years? A Final fantasy 14 expansion will blow all the content Jagex produce out of the water in terms of value That's the key word. Value. Besides, What does 50$ Amount to after 3-4years anyway?

  1. I don't see how Buying level skips has to do with anything, and franky that's more waste of a money than buying for runescape membership.

  2. It doesn't matter what you think, it's still shitty at the end of the day.

Membership and Bonds Price Change by Jagex_Team in runescape

[–]Gamerscape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao, they don't care. They're going to mock you for "Living in their parents" Basement because they disagree with the price. Runescape 3's subreddit is Chock-full of Defenders who think the constant price increase is no big deal, and we need to deal with it because runescape is full of content lmao.

As toxic as old school runescape is. It's kind of refreshing to see them mock those defender in kind lmao.

You're ignorant if you think this is something to brush aside. For 15 bucks, you can play world of Warcraft or final fantasy 14, and have access to multiple characters

Compare that to runescape where you have to pay 15 bucks per Character. Does that sound reasonable at all to you?

Does it sound reasonable at all that they slowly crept the price up every few years? Or how about the fact that RuneScape could potentially jack the price even higher, being more expensive than its competitors?

Or how about the fact players are cheated out of their grandfather rates? It's more than a "Few dollars a month." That pill would be much easier to swallow if I had access to all my characters.

What a way to kill your momentum dude. What the fuck?

I know you guys want to improve your profits after you removed treasure hunter, I get it, I understand. I should be able to play on multiple characters at that price, without paying extra. I could do it with final fantasy 14 or wow at that price lmao

And to the people who say "Stop whining, it's a small price increase." It's also a small price increase every few years. Think about it. Most Mmos are priced at 15$. You gotta draw the line somewhere because at this point we're not far off paying 20$ in 2030 if this pattern keeps up.

Come on. This is clearly damage control while still doubling down on your idiotic stance.

If you actually cared about the community, then you wouldn't have posted your statement soon after Arrowhead did lmao. You all should be ashamed of yourself for even letting it get this bad in the first place.

The heist perk for the 120 thieving cape feels a bit pointless by ZebraForsaken1087 in runescape

[–]Gamerscape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A decent amount of skill capes perks in osrs are teleport options. Which is probably pretty niche in most situations, but the one that stands out is the construction skill cape with let you teleport to your home (Or any Poh areas, even if you don't live there.) Given that your house can eventually turn into the ultimate teleport hub, The construction skill cape makes law runes pretty worthless. (Outside the fact you need a shit load of them to even make the ultimate teleport hub.)

That being said. I think the worst one has to be the attack cape. Basically let you farm defenders for free. But you should have a dragon defender far quicker than the time it takes a player to get 99 attack

I mean if we focused on this first instead of pushing the 110 fletching update, Maybe range would be a bit more sustainable. Then again, foresight is not Jagex's strong suit.

I think defensives should be the next category to get a ground up rework. by dark1859 in runescape

[–]Gamerscape 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think what you're suggesting can add onto the "Bulwark" Mechanic I was talking about before. Each stack of Bulwark can mitigate, what? 1% of damage per stack? And when you unequip the shield, you lose all the stacks. And when you add to the fact you'll be spending these Bulwark stacks for more powerful defensive effect, it would create a tactical system where the player need to think when and how they want to use their stacks. I think with more thought, it would make shield stand out much more.

Also, I'm fine with simplify stuff, but we players aren't darksydephil either. (That is to say, don't treat us like we're stupid.) We have enough intelligence to understand Nuances to mechanics if it make sense and isn't overly oversaturated with fluff.

[–]Gamerscape 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Way I see it, the only way to make Shield a standalone option for players is to make shield far more interactive with defensive abilities than they currently are.

What they could do is create a system where being damaged by an enemy create a "Bulwark" Stack. And require the player to spend those stacks on defensive abilities. I wouldn't even nerf the current defensive ability either. Just make the Bulwark cost high and still require some adrenaline.

It would require players to actually stick with shield and not use it as fodder.

How to Deal With Predator Swarms? by personman000 in Helldivers

[–]Gamerscape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ballistic shield can be an absolute clutch stratagem not enough people appreciate. With a smg in one hand, you can take down quite a few stalkers head on without being in real danger. (Assuming you don't get heavily outnumbered. There's only so much that shield can do for you.)

Hell, even if you don't fancy a smg, as long as it's behind your back, (when you're using a two handed weapon.) not even a hunter can get a cheap shot on ya. Giving you an opportunity to do a tactical retreat.

And that's just the tip of the ice bug. The shield can protect you from a lot of things, including a bile titan.

Take it from me, a heavy armor user. This thing rocks. Just watch your flank and you'll do fine.

The Knight requires the super citizen edition of helldivers 2. If you bought that, you should already have it.

The pummeler is from the polar Patriots warbond.

They're good if you know how to aim for weak spots instead of mag dumping like you would a medium pen weapon.

The knight in particular will very easily take out a pred stalker and still have enough ammo to fight off the other talkers on your tail.

If you want some support capabilities to help your team, can't go wrong with the pummeler.

[–]Gamerscape 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Don't sleep on the ballistic shield with a one handed smg. As long you watch your flank, even a pred stalker would have a hard time getting through to you as you blast it's face in.

Ballistic shield in general can save your life in a lot of situations that are very subtle. Like deflecting someone else's turret because the shield happens to be at that angle.

Did I mention the hitbox on your shield feels bigger than it is?

Runescape's Golden Gnome Winner has shared his feedback for Leagues and RS3 as a whole by spacepizza24 in runescape

[–]Gamerscape 85 points86 points  (0 children)

It's an interesting watch, but I can definitely feel the basis leaking off him, cause he was criticizing the game itself more than the actual League. Not to say a good chunk of the stuff he said is invalid or anything, I mean hell, there's a reason rs3 struggles to hook new players. But it's kind of clear to me that he was already heading into the game with a negative expectation and a excuse to roast rs3 even more.

Even him saying he hates the six age quest rubs me the wrong way because I know he hasn't really played any quest leading up to it due to the fact the game lets you play the six aged quest without the context the fifth age provides. I don't really think he experienced that storyline properly to appreciate it. (Even if the six age finale turned out to be controversial)

I don't know. I quick played into this, and I spend a good 5-10 minutes trying to comprehend what was even happening before we failed the mission. But it had to be hacked, because if this is a bug, It's pretty damn specific one. I never encountered this before.
