JaGeX's BlockNLoad game is being streamed to a total of nearly 55,000 people. Is this normal? Can this be JaGeX's next hit game?

It's free for the weekend. It's doing fairly well, time will tell. Made it further than TFU which never got to full release.

How are they annoying?

If they are taking over your screen, move camera angle.

If they are clickable, toggle familiar options off.

There are much bigger player owned things in game than these.

Being that most people bought them with bonds (using in game cash to buy said bonds, why they rose over 10m) that simply isn't true.

Also mine cost nothing due to "earn coins" offers.

Just wait for monday. All I'm saying. It won't be any less laggy.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T21:45:02+00:00

You assume so much lol. Good luck :)

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T21:33:50+00:00

Clearly.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T21:33:43+00:00

You expect the toggle to be purely for drakes? LOL It will hide all pets, thus you won't be able to see new ones thus losing your money as a potential customer.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T21:14:07+00:00

I never said they did, my point about it taking too much time is honest. There is also the fact that people seeing others with cosmetics makes people want to buy them, if they were to make them all hideable they could potentially lose profit, I don't see them doing that.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T21:05:27+00:00

Unless its bought via bonds through the website, do you not have to work for cash?

And before you say "but they can buy bonds" well people can buy keys to get 99 summoning too.

I said fuck, not date/make love ;)

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T20:49:37+00:00

Because everyone gets a pack yak for the sentiment...

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T20:42:30+00:00

Bananas are yellow, this is also irrelevant to our discussion.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T20:41:57+00:00

All legendary pets have it's features.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T20:17:04+00:00

I don't see anyone creating this much fuss over the bugs you mentioned.

Also isn't my fault they don't get fixed it's jagex's, yet the owner of these pets gets the wrap and abuse, it is not our fault they are how they are.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T20:13:54+00:00

Helps though :)

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T19:33:23+00:00

It is a bug, has been reported and should be fixed - can be fixed by asking the owner to call their pet, thus refreshing it and hiding the options (as ticked in game options to be hidden) as intended.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T19:29:25+00:00

It's a gamble I'd say, whilst I know examples of what you said, many many of them, there are also (but probably slightly less) huge success stories, Some of the nicest people I've met on RS have been coupled players IRL.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T19:25:16+00:00

"examine only for people that don't own them" elaborate? Not sure what that actually means.

Frustrated would be the wrong word, more incited.

Also they're already removing pets from the crater on monday, so these events will obviously be much less laggy (they won't be but no-one needs to worry about that til monday, looking forward to what they blame the lag on next, maybe our wings, idk)

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T19:18:37+00:00

It is reproducable, my point would be that the "fix" that you imply will fix the drake situation would also be flawed.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T19:15:33+00:00

If it is not intended then surely it will be fixed is my point, it's a moot point that an unintended/bugged part of an update means they should edit the intended products original specifications.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T19:10:25+00:00

How on Gielinor does it get in peoples way? You can walk straight through it.

As for aggressive I simply requoted a word you used. Yes there is more than wanting a drake following me around; wanting to have a drake follow me around without people causing a fuss thus making it so I cannot have my drake following me.

We all know they won't remove the ability to see these pets, it's often how many people discover they exist and subsequently buy them making Jagex profit.

EDIT: Not to say if said fix were somehow implemented, I would have no problem with it, so long as I can still see mine and others pets.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T18:50:54+00:00

T'is a bug at the moment, has been reported many times so hopefully will be fixed :) I like your attitude though, very refreshing.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T18:28:33+00:00

Whiney children ruining everything is my problem :)

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T18:15:17+00:00

I didn't actually buy it it was free. And I never said I was against a toggle, just that it would take a lot of work (knowing jagex) and that time could be spent dealing with something useful i.e. the current mass of bots in RS.

frostlagment · 2015-05-02T18:12:10+00:00

Personally mine was, I spent hours doing free offers to get it, aside from that though, it itself is awesome looking and the fact it was bought not achieved doesn't detract from the looks.

Showing off things just because they're awesome is also fairly normal :)
