Is there gonna be any downtime or a quick reboot of the servers? <3
It should be a quick reboot with no downtime
What happens to a loot key if you don't pick it up. Will the other players be able to see it and pick it up?
Just talked to a dev about it. No they will not, the key will "yeet itself" - Mod Kirby
Where will Skully be located? Do the keys work in both P2P and F2P?
Skully is in Ferox, located little bit East of the banker, and yes both P2P and F2P. I'll add this to the newspost!
The new Android Client Open Beta will bring some of the new client features to mobile
What features are these? Is it just referencing runelite?
The features include, but aren't limited to:
Buff Bars
Fishing Spot Indicators
HUD Improvements (NPC Information and Combat Styles)
Agility and Slayer Helpers
Chambers of Xeric Helper
Woodcutting and Ore Respawn Timers
Increased Draw Distance
Navigation Tile Indicators
Chat Improvements
Entity Highlights for NPCs (new to mobile)
I think there's a few more but those are the major ones within the Android Open Beta, we will be looking to publish a survey to help guide us on what new features we should be prioritising based on player feedback
What happens to people who already finished a tier of combat achievements when new ones released? Is the slayer helm recolor and hilt unusable like a quest cape would be?
It’s an unusual situation cause they’re kinda like achievement diary rewards, but they don’t go adding new tasks there.
Any rewards earned previously will be unusable until the full tiers of combat achievements have been completed, kind of like how the quest cape works.
Someone got an idea if you still can apply for the open beta? Everytime i tried to apply on the app page it says:"Can't join, beta program has ended".
It opens up on the 28th February but it goes into the game code today. We're going to be publishing a newspost on the 28th February when it is open :)
Any update on the iOS beta? Sorry if i've just missed this somewhere and it's been mentioned already
We're still aiming to have a Beta for iOS in the near future once we've completed our initial steps for Android. We'll have more news to share soon.
Will you be able to retrieve the contents of the loot keys in any bank, or at least banks in PvP worlds? I imagine otherwise it could get quite tedious in locations such as Grand Exchange to retrieve the loot.
Currently this works just ferox, however the devs are open to feedback on this. Let us know how it feels after testing it for a bit and we can discuss as a team tomorrow?
Good stuff. I just feel like you are underestimating how important ground item markers are for mobile. Personally I think that should be a top priority
Thank you! When the survey for the Android Open beta is published on the 28th, definitely leave your feedback there. Everyone loves stats and when you let us know this it will help to bolster what we're hearing even more.
How do we join the beta program? I tried to follow the steps on the link but it didnt work
It opens up on the 28th to everyone :) this is just giving information as a heads up before Monday.
The 100k players drop at revs does not go into the loot key which I believe is a bug.
Thanks for raising it! This should now be fixed :)
How do i get involved if I didnt do the close beta? Will it automatically enrol me?
The information should be in both the newspost and the FAQ but I’m happy to help. You’ll know if you’re automatically opted in because when you log in after Monday 28th you’ll get a broadcast ingame for the first five times you log in telling you that you’re on the beta.
Some people will have opted in ages ago so their device might automatically install the new version on Monday, but to sign up the steps are really simple. There’s a picture in the newspost which explains how to opt in if you haven’t!
meh update, i want the rc minigame
I also am super excited for the rc minigame lol
Where’s RC
Late March is the current estimation yall I can’t wait either
Thanks for showing us mobile players some love. I just learned corrupted gauntlet and think this is really going to improve my gameplay and future pvm thanks Jagex.
Take all our love and energy!
By far the most frequent suggestion from our testers was that they would like to see Ground Item Markers. We are planning to add this feature to the client, but it needs more work before we can release it. It will also need it to have price checking functionality so players can filter out low value items that they don't want to see. As soon as it's ready, it will be making its way to mobile!
I mean you guys already know that it's the most requested feature for the new client, and I think a lot of us watching closely expected ground markers to be included in the open beta, released two months after the closed beta.
Will still definitely leave feedback, but you guys already have what you're asking for. Ground markers should absolutely be a top priority.
From the Closed Beta to the Open one, we had to fix a number of the main bugs and issues that the testers found. We are aware that ground item markers are the biggest suggestion from players, but having this validated by a survey with data will just help even more. It adds a lotta clout if you know what I’m saying!
Any information on when we could expect the mobile updates for Apple devices as well?
iOS is something we'd like to do after the Android Open Beta, I do not have a date yet unfortunately but hope to surface one in a newspost or gazette as soon as I know from the team
any hints as to when it may come? ;)
late march!
When will the visual bug at phosani’s nightmare get fixed?
The visual issue with the prayer icon was hotfixed by Husky this morning, apologies for getting this to you so late!
Not sure if you guys are aware but since the update there seems to be a leagues bug on iOS and android with the active fragments not showing on the ‘HUD’ either at all or sometimes not showing all active set effects.
Thanks for raising this guys! We're aware of this issue which seems connected:
The Buff bar which displays your active Leagues fragments does not update at all unless the player turns the display off, opens the Leagues interface, turns on the display and then opens the interface once again.
Unfortunately that one above can only be coldfixed, so I imagine it's the same for the one you've just reported. I'll add your report and discuss with the team tomorrow.
See I tried this (Samsung S10+) and it still disconnects me sometimes
This should be available to test in the Open Android Beta on Monday!
Is there an expected date for which the beta opt in option will become available in Europe (Netherlands)? In Google Play store, this is not yet available to me.
It should be aIt should be available to everyone in the world atm. Your google play store might need some time.
