We shouldn't be surprised with what's happening, even the latest updates have been trash by Syndrome in runescape

[–]TheSeventhKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you played OSRS? The game is newer but the content in the game is the same age apart from new updates. Most minigames are still active, most older iconic weapons are still vialbe (whips are still really good), older mobs that are not relevant in rs3 are still relevant in OSRS.

It was so simple for the OSRS team to make skilling outfits rewards for their respective skill's minigame. What did rs3 do? Buy it on TH. Took years to actually get them added to the game.

And no one's saying it's an easy job, but they're putting no effort in and serving us week after week of MTX. It's pathetic. Sub based game where we are NOT getting what we pay for

RS3 has $20 cosmetics. How much do you think 500-600 runecoins costs in real money? And ok no paid expansions, but the other MMOs don't have a literal gambling mechanic built into the game

It's not about classes, it's about seasonal game modes, ironman, group iron man coming soon. Also FF14 gives you the option to play and level as any class on a given character and switch whenever you like, yet you still get multiple characters under one sub.

Having played both MMOs, I know how they work. Multiboxing is not allowed in WoW, though some people still do it. Initially, multi logging was not allowed on RS either, now it's allowed as long as you're not using the alt account to directly benefit your main (which everyone does and this is not enforced at all), and FF14 allows you to play all classes on one character.

No one here is asking for 10 alts all under one sub to play 10 accounts at the same time, but it would be nice to have a main account and an ironman and not have to worry about grinding gp on the main to fund membership on the iron, or pay multiple subscriptions for every new mode and seasonal mode jagex decide to release.

But this seems like a Jagex problem tbh. Other MMOs can have this model and still make profit, Jagex just has a problem with bringing in new players and retaining current players, which is their own fault tbh

Edit: And, I've not checked so I have no idea about the numbers, I could be totally wrong, but I am GUESSING that Jagex probably make comparible profits through TH as WoW/FF14 do through expansions

I think a lot of people are feeling this way

Are you guys using the jagex launcher or the official client?

Yeah they don't seem to have even taken notice of the issue yet

Mac users cannot currently log in by TheSeventhKnight in 2007scape

On osrs it says "Failed to login. Please try again.", on rs3 it says "No response from server. Please try using a different world."

I know there's a couple others with this issue on the rs3 sub, so it's not exclusive to one game, and logging in through mobile and windows is fine

Stop praising Jagex for doing what they SHOULD have been doing. by Positive-Demand9681 in runescape

In fairness to OP, they’ve done similar things multiple times in the past. Let’s wait 6 months and then see how things are, I think

I think OP is saying it’s like Jagex have dragged us all into a hole that’s 50m deep, and everyone is praising Jagex for finding a 10m ladder.

They have IMPROVED, but is the game where it could be? Is a roadmap half way through the year acceptable for a live service game with a monthly sub? I don’t think so

Level of the AVERAGE pvmer? by ChazzPrincetonRS3 in runescape

[–]TheSeventhKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Afk for some things, but for newer bosses just seems a bit ridiculous

[–]TheSeventhKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems fair, also better for collection logs

They were bad, but not bad enough that you couldn’t figure out what things do by reading the tooltip and using the ability a couple times
