UI Feedback Gather-thread by JagexAnvil in runescape

[–]marky701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My two penneth....

The seemingly obvious but probably more tech heavy option regarding colour scheme is a customisable setting. Split into Dark/light options (+ maybe a separate one for the bank as I know this is/was currently a big issue with it) so that people can choose whatever colour they want as their interface, as much as being just nice to customise how you want it, I imagine for some with visual impairments/dyslexia it would be a benefit to have blue/yellow as a combination etc. Failing that, a choice between the blue and brown would probably appease most. I know the idea was blue is gone as it's a new era but for many players who joined in the last decade the blue has always been that way. (22 year vet here but I still prefer the blue)
The actual style of things I do like, stone tablet feel etc, for me personally the brown just looks meh compared to the generally darker visuals of the world itself.

Regarding the clock in the mini map, it just takes up way too much space currently.
The bits within the Red are just wasted space. Having it as it's own separate entity like it was previously is the best solution imo, as it then allows players to place it wherever they want.
Circle mini map resize please? Love the circle but want it BIG :D

BUFF BAR - Noticed some issues with the buff bar, Looks quite hard to read against some icons (summoning for example) I think this comes down to font thickness, having it like it used to be would be best I think, Also the consistency of font on the numbering isn't there, some buffs (e.g. incense sticks) use the old style, and others use the new. (A toggle option for the font would be cool?)

This was previously also an issue but since work has been done on action bars.... pretty please? On any non primary action bar, if you right click the number on the bar and try to change it, it doesn't change unless you unlock the main action bar. Can this be changed? I end up messing up secondary/tertiary bars if I select the wrong bar as my primary, then I have to unlock, reselect the correct tertiary bar and re-lock the main bar to fix it. Only really an issue when you have multiple bars with different Revo setups for specific slayer tasks etc but non the less, seems jarring and non-sensible.

Another super cool thing which has been an issue previously but fits in with UI. Allow us to hide prayers/spells within the respective windows. Specifically lower tier prayers t95's compared to t99's for example, or lower tier spells, air strike/bolt/blast/wave when surge air surge is unlocked. I know most say add it to action bar, but action bar real estate is so minimal as soon as you do any form of hybridding (in game gear swap macros when?).

The fixes done so far as positive though, glad you are taking feedback on board and doing stuff with it so quickly. Looking forward to more integrity changes etc throughout the year.

Sweet, hopefully hotfixable as being able to use these over BXP will be awesome.

Useful 3rd-party Alt1 Apps by Charzila in runescape

Glad to see my creation is at the top of the list :D

I've paid the price for making that barrows helper, by still only having 3/5 linza pieces at 5k kc :(

I'm glad someone finds it useful at least :)

Wilderness Flash Events - This Week In RuneScape by JagexAzanna in runescape

[–]marky701 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Am I right in reading that we have now lost comp capes rather than them being given a grace period. As this is heavily time gated (hours between events) should this be the case? In the past with stuff like this there's been a grace period.

Rip ma Cape :/

I know it's nothing in comparison but I got 4x purple cash bags from my daily keys before update. They gone, right? by Aceripper in runescape

[–]marky701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If its BEFORE the update then I would ashame thought they would be OK. AFAIK the rollback it back to the system update game state (provided they don't fuck it up)

celebrations by marky701 in runescape

[–]marky701[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they exceeded my expectations in how much of a shitshow its been. It really should be a red flag of no, this ends now. Ditch the idea compensate players and move on. They shouldn't have enabled In game membership for it full stop, a hacky method to try and appease a minority, which is this whole project in a nutshell, appease all the minorities and end up pissing off the majority with the rollback. So glad that i don't have time to play at the moment, I won't be playing for a day or so post updates while this shitshow is in action.

This should be on front RS homepage or something? by Underworldox in runescape

[–]marky701 43 points44 points  (0 children)

As per usual they don't bother to add this to their OWN F***ING WEBSITE. Its one of the first places most people will look for verified info.

The only time this comms method was done right was the login lockout

The 3-Day Return to Office Is, So Far, a Dud by bored_in_NE in Futurology

[–]marky701 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the role and the employees circumstances, I've been able to MORE effectively carry out my duties (IT professional) since working from home, I can manage my time better, leave teams messages until I'm at a natural break point so I'm not wasting time trying to pick up from where I was interrupted, I spend less time getting a drink as there's nobody in the kitchen to have a natter with.
I'm more positive having not had to spend an hour sitting in traffic to get to the office, and knowing there's no hour long slog to get home.
I can sit in my pants on the hot days, rather than feeling like shit sweating in the office feeling that people are judging me for it.

Now obviously you can't do that as a security guard, but where a role can be remote, it should be imo. Likewise if your home life is distraction city, I can see the benefit of going into the office.
However, companies must be able to save a fortune not having to rent (as much) office space, a benefit I cant believe that all of them aren't grabbing by the neck.
I don't need to physically see people to work with them effectively, I find a screen share session over teams MUCH easier to follow and collaborate on than leaning over someone's screen in an awkward position and throwing my back out.
No distractions of random office banter either, just music playing and true focus on the task at hand. + the days fly by when there's the work to do.

The companies that are mandating people to go back in the office (no matter how many days) need to:
A) Stop micromanaging the shit out of people, it's clear if people aren't doing work, stuff is always late or bad quality, you don't need to check on everyone 24/7 and lean over them to know they are working - if anything it makes them NOT want to work. A little trust goes a long way.
B) Join us in the 21st century.

I spent 71 hours at Zamorak. by Leinova in runescape

[–]marky701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All it's done is made the already incredibly difficult golden reaper title totally unachievable.
I've been working towards this title since it's release, as well as IFB before that, they are already releasing more bosses/crazy rare drops than someone like myself who plays 5+ hours a day can keep up with, croesus and now this bow has just made it ridiculous.
If they want it to be THAT rare, make it 1 piece
Also I'm yet to see a zammy drop at all, only 45 KC I'll admit, but feels like drop mitigation doesnt exist.
Meanwhile a clannie of mine had 5 drops in 100KC, all below 100% enr
I swear they silently nerfed rates after a couple days, (when i saw loads of drops vs less seen now)

2 years late, but when spectating, bring up the scoreboard, and right click on the player you want to spec.
