103s | town to rework it launched on wood |
105s | upholstery Friday and the poll feature |

142s | lots of questions from you about what |
143s | we're going to be doing next what's the |
145s | long-term future of old-school look like |
147s | and we'll be sharing more about that how |
149s | do weekend so lastly was runefest in |
152s | mind and you need to get the team to Roo |
154s | fast |
154s | this week's game update will take place |
156s | on Wednesday rather than usual Thursday |
158s | apologies if your inconvenience by this |
160s | but it means that you'll have ample |
162s | j-mods on hands to deal with any issues |
163s | that might arise anything update so |
166s | sorry if you're a Wednesday morning |
168s | player and you don't wander the system |
170s | update timer but cannot be helped it's |
174s | quite a small update this week obviously |
176s | while we're going to reinvest oh close |
179s | up also going to reinvest on Thursday or |
181s | Friday some of us so it's a smaller |
183s | update this week but we're mostly I |
186s | think the main and feedback changes - |
188s | from Eric x-files I think in particular |
190s | or should I say this yet so one of the |
193s | main things you guys have said is that |
194s | the basilisk and Knights who dropped the |
196s | the jaw piece for upgrading you and |
199s | that's not helm a bit too easy to kill |
201s | so we're going to be ramping that up a |
202s | bit |
202s | alongside thinks of minor bug fixes and |
206s | tweak something a couple of graphical |
207s | changes so nothing too major but that's |
209s | what you can expect going live with as |
215s | well tell you everything that's coming |
217s | on to you questions and we'll start with |
219s | lots of questions about third-party |
221s | clients and members of staff leaving was |
224s | no question mighty count security blog |
225s | and then we've got a game related |
227s | questions as well first one what took so |
230s | long |
231s | probably statement and why was a |
233s | statement delayed I guess the very |
235s | honest answer is that because it's such |
238s | a big sensitive subject there are lots |
240s | of people who need to sign off any |
241s | official comments from around the studio |
243s | so there's lots of back and forth about |
246s | firstly we need to talk about what we |
248s | want to say then we need to make sure |
250s | we're staying on the right way to make |
251s | sure that everybody's happy with what |
253s | we're saying today that kind of final |
256s | sign-off |
256s | came sense of what took so long when you |
259s | look at the last six years I'm afraid we |
264s | can't really help that right |
267s | now what we can do is look forward and |
268s | try and make sure any action we do with |
269s | third-party clients is the right one to |
270s | do what I will say is personally and my |
274s | time knows Waseem I haven't seen this |
276s | determination from I guess the senior |
279s | leadership team around Jagex and the old |
280s | school team to fix the third pipeline |
282s | issue that encourages me hopeful that |
286s | encourages you will share more when we |
288s | can about longer-term solution next |
293s | question are you communicating with the |
295s | developers of these clients so it has |
297s | been some communication between senior |
298s | members of the studio and some |
299s | developers I can't tell you what's being |
302s | discussed or who between and what I will |
304s | say is though if you're a developer of a |
306s | client during courage to contact old |
308s | school community at Jagger's calm if you |
310s | wish to discuss the contents of the |
311s | statement and how a might affect you'll |
313s | develop them work question if jagex says |
317s | that a certain feature is against the |
318s | rules but thousands of people have used |
320s | it for months |
321s | why won't you ban them how is it fair |
323s | they get to keep their advantage over |
324s | players who do the content in future I |
327s | can't believe it already with the kind |
329s | of frustration in the lack of action |
331s | we've taken over the last six years so |
333s | while we understand the frustration we |
335s | think it would be unfair to apply that |
337s | kind of sanction to players when the |
339s | stance wasn't clear enough and we do |
341s | apologize a lack of clarity but I don't |
344s | know it kind of seems a bit of |
345s | repetition point there but going forward |
346s | we will make sure the reaction and white |
348s | communications nice and open in the blog |
353s | we mentioned more clarity if it's needed |
355s | quite a few times actually where do we |
358s | get it act jacket support just sends |
360s | links to the rules page it doesn't |
362s | mention clients and your other staff |
363s | don't reply or just direct us to a Jago |
365s | support how do I know about what I'm |
367s | doing won't get me banned so our answer |
370s | is while our player fees and staff can't |
373s | promise individual applies to everything |
375s | sent to them on every topic especially |
377s | if it's outside their own field |
378s | knowledge will issue updates to the |
380s | statement for major points of confusion |
381s | that arise so keep an eye on the page |
383s | that's the third party clients statement |
385s | page which will find that exclamation |
386s | mark free PC and also follow at |
389s | old-school RS for updates and hacker |
392s | support for updates |
393s | next question what will you do to |
396s | players who use these features that I |
397s | mentioned in the blog |
399s | so like we said in the blog we're taking |
401s | time to assess how best would force the |
402s | approach but ultimately the use of |
404s | unexpectable features will result when |
406s | account balance so short term in the |
408s | meantime that's all we'll be doing |
410s | longer term we yeah we need to assess |
413s | what we what's the best approach be on |
415s | banning |
417s | question in a similar vein what will you |
420s | do to those developing and sharing and |
421s | clients which uses features again we're |
424s | taking time to assess the proper |
426s | approach and that's the correct legal |
427s | approach we'll communicate with an |
429s | update once this has been decided that |
430s | update may not be made public and might |
433s | just be specific and communicated |
435s | specifically for those developing and |
437s | sharing you talked about other clients |
442s | but don't mention your official client |
443s | what are the plans here why don't you |
445s | update yours or partner with another |
446s | unofficial client and somewhat of a long |
449s | answer here so do forgive me and I'm |
451s | talking a lot hopefully we'll get some |
453s | more game related questions at the |
455s | moment it is I need to make sure I'm |
457s | saying the right things so in response |
460s | to why don't we update our own client or |
462s | partner with somebody else we want to |
464s | work with you to determine the right |
465s | long-term solution there was some |
467s | impulsive action last year which the |
469s | playerbase weren't happy with so like |
472s | one I might as well be explicit with |
474s | what I'm describing when we said we shut |
476s | room lay down so that was the impulsive |
478s | action which you guys weren't happy with |
479s | we don't want to discount any options |
482s | being updating or own client or |
484s | partnering somebody else there are lots |
486s | of things that consider though if we |
487s | further develop our own client how do we |
489s | turn which features should be added |
491s | we've seen the issues that might arise |
493s | if we just add to our own Java client |
496s | and we know how I think insecure but how |
500s | or we know that Java plums with other |
503s | issues so what if we were to take a |
504s | longer-term approach and work to |
506s | introduce the C++ client it means if we |
508s | wanted to update or implying you've been |
509s | waiting longer but we were we wouldn't |
512s | count through the same issues we are now |
514s | if we partner with a client then what do |
516s | we do of other clients particularly |
518s | those which are Forks from or derived |
520s | from another client so our top level and |
522s | might look exactly the same so those are |
525s | kind of considerations grabbing we don't |
526s | have anything we can say right now but |
530s | like I said earlier I haven't seen this |
532s | level of |
533s | nation from the studio and the obstacle |
535s | team the old school leadership to fix |
536s | the issue since I joined the old school |
537s | thing that is largely I've got from |
541s | photo a client questions if you have |
545s | more and like spoke about me more |
547s | I mean we've energy to publish the blog |
548s | then we will look to answer those as |
550s | best we can |
551s | next question is what's the status of |
553s | the account security blog so the status |
556s | is we identify the work we would like to |
559s | do with account security having read it |
562s | I think it does handle all community |
565s | concerns with security but we're still |
568s | in the process of working out just when |
570s | you can expect to see the security |
571s | changes and we'd rather release such a |
573s | blog when you have all the information |
574s | you'd actually want you we can release |
577s | the blog this is what you're going to |
578s | get these are the dates you're going to |
580s | see them so in account security I mean I |
584s | thought you know already it's not the |
586s | old school team making the content |
587s | changes what we're doing now is relaying |
588s | information from the rest of the |
589s | business the detecting and play support |
591s | teams who will be implementing these |
592s | kind of changes so that's where we are |
594s | now added security blog next big |
597s | question I guess is what's happening |
599s | with the old school team and everybody |
600s | leaving so that's a very big question |
604s | some people have said is there anything |
606s | happening like sinister with old school |
609s | people have mentioned his empty axe |
611s | coming the answer is no there's no MTX |
613s | coming in terms of team size we don't |
616s | want we're not trying to downsize we |
617s | want the team to grow the current plan |
618s | is the team to grow so we've got a new |
620s | executive producer which will be |
622s | introducing them to you soon probably |
623s | after runefest |
624s | on a new dev starter there yep that's my |
626s | list it's a brand new today which would |
630s | who live in Troost you see which is in |
632s | line with the others new devs recently a |
634s | new product director who hasn't started |
636s | yet but will be starting soon a new |
638s | marketing manager a new QA manager and |
641s | that's just the obstacle team there are |
642s | lots of other growth around the studio |
644s | people have expressed concerns with what |
646s | atlas leaving and engine work but there |
648s | are other engine developers who are |
649s | going to be doing engine work for old |
651s | school that has been agreed in like |
653s | planning I've got some thrown at topic |
655s | of QA because obviously mod wolf left us |
657s | so exclamation mark wolf to see his |
659s | leading post so I've got some words from |
661s | modfet who was the new QA manager and he |
664s | says I hope to make an appearance on the |
666s | stream soon |
667s | in the meantime I've been working on the |
668s | old school team to support QA and our |
670s | content development we have new hires |
672s | planned in the near future and for old |
673s | school we'll continue to look for people |
675s | with hands-on knowledge of a game and |
676s | who help us improve our QA processes and |
679s | tools I want to ensure as QA we grow as |
682s | both a team and individuals / while |
684s | working towards quality being a TopGolf |
686s | old school so I guess the best way to |
689s | leave that question is it is really sad |
692s | for us to have to stop working with our |
694s | friends but I mean it's people leave |
698s | people come and go so it whilst it's sad |
701s | we are still going to be expanding the |
703s | team and looking to replace people who |
705s | have left and I own other ones that's |
709s | anybody else have any insight any other |
711s | question either me it's just often this |
713s | is what workplaces are like if you |
715s | believe I mean people have different |
717s | things that move on - it's it's |
719s | unfortunate but that's just the way it |
720s | is sometimes and I think we've been a |
722s | little bit unfortunate this year that |
724s | that's obviously the coincidence that so |
725s | many esteemed overline different within |
728s | this year alone but I'm not worried |
731s | about it this I've got no intention to |
733s | go anywhere yeah there's curious it's |
735s | just business right people come and go |
737s | we're in the unusual position where it's |
739s | kind of public because we're also |
740s | customer-facing yeah it's just such a |
741s | city alive yeah for example it's really |
744s | not not anything out of the ordinary |
747s | yeah I would say if I wasn't happy or |
751s | comfortable with everything I'm saying |
753s | about people leaving that I wouldn't do |
755s | it I'm lieutenant Jackson you know a lot |
757s | of people are and it is just also |
760s | coincidence that so many people live in |
762s | such a short space of time so many long |
764s | serving j-mods |
765s | and you're sad to see our friends go but |
768s | as a as a product I'm pretty confident |
770s | also the other thing is like obviously |
773s | people it's generally often there's |
774s | personal reasons involve it's not like |
776s | people are gonna be telling the whole |
777s | world and on Twitter and the whole |
779s | community exactly what they're doing and |
780s | why they're leaving they're not going to |
782s | dive into that so I understand the |
784s | community obviously jumping under this a |
785s | heck if I was a player probably have |
787s | done the same thing |
788s | so I get it but genuinely there's there |
792s | is no sinister thing going on that |
794s | everyone's running away from yeah |
796s | somebody's asked about like jagex |
798s | employee reviews on the likes of Glasgow |
799s | and stuff and while |
800s | probably is a bit of stock to Glassdoor |
802s | generally anyone can post a review about |
805s | you don't need to prove that you worked |
806s | anywhere one review I saw mentioned |
809s | about being in conditions like sardines |
811s | I certainly don't feel like I'm in |
815s | conditions cramped like a like a sardine |
818s | like so I just haven't heard that phrase |
822s | in like a decade I've got to swing a cat |
830s | [Laughter] |
842s | that's it will be I guess the big non |
846s | game related questions but old-school RS |
849s | if you have any more questions also game |
851s | rates of questions too and we've got |
852s | more tied on the chat oh I forgot to |
854s | welcome at the start very sorry my |
855s | sausage I'm sorry just before fun as |
857s | well the desire from jagex and the |
860s | old-school team is to grow right the |
863s | team is getting bigger yes a few people |
865s | have left this year but it doesn't |
866s | change that plan the plan is to expand |
868s | quite a lot |
869s | I mean we're planning to bring in a |
872s | number of new people next yeah so you |
874s | can go up to like a fourth scrum team |
875s | and 1/4 1/4 Development Group so that's |
879s | not changing |
880s | and there's notice that I cut down the |
881s | team ok just to extend that point it's |
884s | not just the old-school team as well I |
885s | mean this year this year alone the way |
886s | the studio has pivoted towards |
888s | supporting old score more in terms of |
889s | every service the the studio has got you |
892s | know what you've seen where our support |
894s | tech out of tech services out of |
895s | analytics out of publishing it of |
897s | marketing ya know and you don't you guys |
899s | don't get to see all that stuff as well |
900s | often yeah I mean it's it's a mean right |
903s | in the community that old-school you |
905s | never get engine work you never get all |
906s | of this that's this happening I mean |
909s | firstly we got more about but moving |
910s | forward now the projects we've always |
912s | had to throw away or not be able to move |
914s | forward with can happen so we are |
917s | getting more support as a product and |
919s | I'm excited to see what happens over the |
921s | next year or two |
922s | yeah the only one is interesting because |
925s | not every bit of engine workers player |
928s | facing yeah a lot of its behind the |
929s | scenes |
930s | yeah whilst a lot of kind of exciting |
931s | features we do say |
932s | you work when it engine work happens we |
935s | don't necessarily share the update with |
936s | you because then we have to do the |
938s | content work that's necessary it comes |
939s | with it but yeah we like I said we do |
942s | have other engine devs other than what |
943s | Atlas we do have engines I'm set aside |
944s | for old school faculty news is normal |
946s | yes similarly with I mean even with |
950s | month Atlas as an example like a lot of |
953s | the time spent over the last six months |
955s | since that sort of time time since we |
958s | Newton knew he was leaving he's been |
959s | trying to pass on a lot of knowledge to |
961s | the rest of the whole engine team and so |
963s | that is dice passed on and they're gonna |
965s | move forward working on the same things |
967s | he was just it sucks we'd still lose a |
971s | member of staff but yes it happens and |
976s | also I'm liking all the comments that I |
977s | just trying to pick up my things I'm |
978s | going to do like he would blink if you |
981s | haven't forming forth of this I'm doing |
988s | mentioned earlier every fastest weekend |
990s | if you're ever concerned about the |
993s | future of old school hopefully runefest |
995s | will offset those concerns we've got |
996s | some pretty exciting things that share |
998s | I'm so excited for in Fest this weekend |
1001s | I mean it has buried me yeah the last |
1004s | like four months but I'm genuinely |
1006s | excited I'm with you the whole weekend |
1010s | it's gonna be exhausting but it it is so |
1012s | worth it for everyone who goes like it's |
1015s | such a unique experience and I feel like |
1017s | working in the games industry as a whole |
1019s | there's not many companies where you get |
1020s | to do this sort of thing what you just |
1022s | get a whole weekend sort of celebrating |
1024s | and knitting all the players and all of |
1026s | that it's the sort of moment where it |
1028s | really sinks in like you know I made |
1030s | that Inferno and met a lot of people are |
1032s | coming up to me runefest wanting to talk |
1033s | to me about it you know stuff like that |
1035s | it's it's pretty surreal absolutely |
1038s | amazing I'll take some chat questions |
1040s | now and thanks the mod side to an |
1042s | old-school RS if you have any questions |
1044s | for us ganache technician asks any |
1049s | chance of the German good and if I've |
1051s | done a France that right being |
1052s | repeatable as a mid-level Slayer boss |
1055s | did we get this with a every quest boss |
1058s | this is different I guess presenting it |
1060s | as a slayer boss but yes I presume I |
1062s | mean the question is if it's possible |
1064s | where anything is possible |
1066s | these rewards it needs decision where |
1069s | all the value is right otherwise I'm |
1070s | gonna go back and kill Oh something we |
1073s | can consider but I wouldn't put my |
1077s | mortgage on it political commentary on |
1090s | state of the economy |
1091s | [Laughter] |
1093s | to be fair I actually I think she is |
1095s | it's a reasonable idea we've done |
1097s | replayable buses in the past like with |
1100s | the Dragonslayer to bus I think there's |
1102s | some of the else buses we play a lot as |
1103s | well |
1104s | yes yes yes so the problem the problem |
1108s | is that it's not actually a triple your |
1110s | man of work to go and add their ISM |
1111s | while it's nice not a whole ton of |
1113s | people go and refight gal vexer doing |
1115s | it's something like this adds value and |
1117s | it still fits as a slayer boss as on |
1119s | that slur tasks with maybe a better rate |
1122s | are getting the jaw and things like that |
1123s | so my only issue would be from a law |
1126s | perspective he doesn't make a whole |
1128s | bunch of sense and the way the other |
1130s | story to be that guy Riaan mode yeah |
1133s | yeah that's how we got around it with a |
1134s | cloth fight in there mmm - you went back |
1137s | into a small dream yeah I suppose with |
1140s | some of the others I think there's the |
1141s | the memory bowl whatever it is in the |
1144s | tower the tower voices I suppose for |
1148s | this one you could do it maybe by |
1149s | talking to a bard who's like seeing your |
1150s | tale of defeating the almond and in that |
1152s | way you can read them it just an idea if |
1154s | people really did one that would come up |
1156s | with something yeah but I think we ought |
1159s | to see a bit more demand for that cool |
1162s | so it's almost one year to recently Bob |
1166s | and I've got a question I don't know who |
1168s | asked it very sorry popper following |
1170s | mobile improvements possible an |
1171s | adjustable long tap delay portrait mode |
1174s | and indicator for items on the ground |
1176s | and the ability to tap on the far side |
1179s | of them side menus for phones with well |
1182s | I guess accommodate different phone |
1184s | sizes so the first point pass that is |
1188s | that's like it's into our tech just we |
1193s | can change yet I don't if we can make |
1195s | that dynamic to the player was the |
1197s | second one again Oh |
1198s | portrait mode |
1199s | so actually we're developing mobile we |
1201s | did explore the portrait mode it might |
1203s | look like and you really don't want it |
1205s | you really don't want the UI just does |
1208s | not work in any way and it'll be an |
1212s | enormous absolutely enormous job to try |
1215s | and get her done very much you might |
1217s | think you want it is one of those it's |
1219s | as fast a horse's question yes sorry to |
1222s | be that kind of guy here but I you don't |
1224s | want it trust me on the last point about |
1228s | clicking outside of the the side stones |
1232s | we've got a change going in next week |
1234s | this is the other sort of main one I |
1235s | forgot to mention earlier we're having |
1237s | it so that you can I believe adjust the |
1239s | size of those dead zones out on the |
1241s | outside of your screen so as of Thursday |
1246s | sorry Wednesday this week you'll be able |
1248s | to toggle whether or not they are you |
1251s | able to click in those edges I think my |
1252s | saying that right is that exactly the |
1253s | change we're doing I believe so yes so |
1256s | there's a little there's basically I saw |
1258s | it earlier because one rock came by I |
1259s | was like wow that's that's not best we |
1261s | should never and actually just wrote in |
1263s | about an hour and half apparently but |
1265s | there's a slider you just drag it in and |
1267s | out and you can move the size of the |
1269s | interface in and out right to suit |
1270s | whatever you're for it looks like so |
1272s | you've got flexibility now unfortunately |
1275s | it's always quite a difficult one for us |
1276s | because I believe we didn't have a |
1278s | method from like the the platform side |
1282s | to tell us it's your phone curved at the |
1285s | edges how big does this like safe so |
1288s | need to be moving the in moving its in |
1290s | so that it's not hidden around the side |
1291s | and they I believe they've given us that |
1294s | now so we get that from from the device |
1297s | and then we made a change last week |
1299s | which didn't quite work for some phones |
1300s | and then we prevent of this which should |
1302s | give you maximum flexibility nice |
1304s | I think extra conveniently it will |
1306s | actually adjust as you're moving the |
1308s | slider all the toggle so we have to see |
1310s | yeah precisely where you want it it is |
1312s | really nice and there was one more human |
1314s | items on the ground yeah slightly |
1316s | something I'd like to do something about |
1317s | it's not straightforward because the way |
1320s | the game is built and the way the apt |
1321s | works and interacting with the |
1323s | old-school client etc so I don't know |
1325s | what that solution looks like or when |
1327s | when we'll have one but it's something |
1330s | will happen someday something |
1331s | biggest answer in the world before it |
1335s | doesn't help but yeah I'm aware of the |
1336s | concern is just just not really one to |
1338s | fix okay I continue asking some check |
1341s | questions baited asks can you make a |
1344s | face card a little darker color to match |
1346s | Bandos armor better it wouldn't match |
1348s | the they help me live it's attached to |
1350s | shortly so if you haven't already check |
1354s | out mod West on - it's a drag X West I |
1356s | think he listed a gift a couple days ago |
1359s | of exactly this a recolored face card |
1361s | version of the no it's not helm with |
1363s | well two-match ban loss basically I was |
1365s | it being the best in its lost area at |
1367s | the moment that would be the set a lot |
1368s | of you'll want to use let him know what |
1370s | you guys think of it I think it looks |
1371s | awesome but well really is up to you |
1374s | guys it's not - you made a good point |
1377s | about your not matching the actual |
1378s | helmet meant to be derived from so maybe |
1380s | it's more of a recolor rather than a |
1381s | change right it is yeah nice bigger okay |
1387s | so let's call it a link and lame a what |
1389s | you think about it grass is there a |
1393s | motor contact if you have any good ideas |
1395s | to give for improving old school hmm I |
1397s | think the answer is all of us yeah yeah |
1400s | submit on reddit I think red it's |
1403s | turning a good place for this obviously |
1405s | there's different communities but reddit |
1406s | |
1407s | well the up root system kind of lent |
1408s | itself naturally so good ideas right |
1410s | into the top in general often in |
1412s | practice isn't quite as black and white |
1413s | as that I'll ask it on the Q&A all that |
1416s | yeah but no even on the Q&A it's like |
1418s | you know we can sit here in a you know |
1419s | give our opinions on on your ideas all |
1421s | day long but ultimate it's not our |
1422s | opinions that really matter it's you |
1423s | know a hundred of thousands of players |
1424s | are voting the polls right yeah if the |
1427s | idea is concrete and I feel you know or |
1429s | rise to the top and will have to |
1430s | consider it say I'm seeing lots of |
1432s | questions about his specific feature or |
1435s | plug-in banner ball we aren't on a |
1438s | social Avenue ball place to answer and |
1439s | give you a total list of this is this |
1441s | isn't but we will monitor all feedback |
1444s | we see and look to clarify in the future |
1447s | as we need to so it's sorry we're not |
1449s | going to be saying yet that one is no |
1452s | that one's not yet that one there's no |
1453s | that one's not the happy pity ask at one |
1458s | point John mentioned working on saving |
1459s | multiple logins for mobile assistant in |
1461s | the works |
1464s | so what sounds have a working right or |
1465s | something we were looking at its login |
1468s | authorization is not something I'm an |
1471s | expert in by any means so forgive me if |
1472s | this is it this is just a bunch of |
1474s | jargon I believe it's still possible |
1477s | it's not something it's in the sort of |
1479s | current immediate plan I honestly have |
1482s | forgot about that I will try and follow |
1484s | up cool because it's valuable I know a |
1486s | lot of you have more than one account |
1487s | myself included and having to type on on |
1490s | a phone it's not the easiest thing |
1491s | anyway so it would be lovely I'd love it |
1493s | on desktop even I can type on there |
1498s | thanks reminder I'm on the topic of the |
1502s | nude now it's not upgrade a conversation |
1505s | I was having with modern and his team |
1507s | you guys raise concerns about it being |
1510s | the new bettin slot item given that it's |
1512s | tier 70 it comes from a Slayer monster |
1514s | so we are sort of on the fence about |
1517s | where it should sit in terms of it being |
1518s | either plastics or +5 strength bonus it |
1522s | may be changed later it may not if we |
1525s | could more tight is it possible to set |
1526s | up a straw poll for that straw poll dot |
1529s | me will make the question something like |
1531s | should the net should the new no it's |
1534s | not helm well what should its drag the |
1537s | bonus be and then I have options plus 5 |
1538s | plus 6 we'll see what you guys say just |
1541s | for curiosity this won't be the actual |
1543s | vote but I want to get some extra in |
1544s | become hood reach up guys come and get |
1552s | agility contracts to make training |
1553s | agility less painful I think I make it |
1555s | less painful |
1556s | [Laughter] |
1564s | wait I don't think it's a terrible idea |
1567s | my personal I think in contracts with |
1569s | the right content and delivered in with |
1571s | enough finesse I will see it with the |
1572s | farming guild it can work really well |
1574s | when it's really popular really engaging |
1576s | but the person given the contracts is |
1578s | getting something back in return |
1579s | yeah what would somebody get from saying |
1581s | go and run around this area doesn't make |
1584s | much sense they just enjoy watching |
1585s | people suffer like you there's so many I |
1590s | think there's so many ways to make it |
1592s | gently more interesting and keep to the |
1594s | general theme of a journey I'd rather an |
1596s | idea like |
1597s | you know I think you've talked about |
1598s | before like scaling buildings and stuff |
1600s | like that and you could tie that into a |
1602s | contract like scale this city find |
1604s | something that I want back I got lost on |
1607s | this roof somehow or there's some |
1609s | treasure up here whatever it is you can |
1610s | find the next case maybe it's not even |
1612s | climbing a building maybe it's going |
1613s | underneath into some caves and have a |
1615s | quarry spaces I think you could come up |
1617s | with something that's quite creative and |
1620s | allows it to be a little bit more |
1622s | diverse than go around there's a lot 770 |
1625s | times an hour I agree with that |
1627s | no I would also suggest that you watch |
1629s | the runefest keynote they also work you |
1631s | know every fast sorry on Saturday mr. |
1634s | cool so we've just posted a straw poll |
1638s | and a chat and whilst we are wasting |
1640s | your votes |
1640s | could I ask whether much it would like |
1642s | to show some things on the screens so |
1656s | this is by I don't have this master name |
1659s | you know what Gavin you sourced it it's |
1662s | Julian crimes where is it Julian and we |
1665s | say Julian Jolin or Gillian apologies if |
1667s | I'm saying that wrong I'm using Jake |
1673s | Gyllenhaal as a reference it will say |
1674s | glean I guess but yeah they made this |
1677s | awesome art this or top thread it of |
1679s | swamp man getting his his lamp from the |
1682s | air the Jian either battle it was a |
1684s | movie poster for Aladdin I'd say I |
1690s | peaked now with making records Eddie |
1691s | Murphy really doesn't look like good |
1693s | that's great artwork the next piece is |
1696s | from somebody a little closer to home if |
1698s | you can show us the next one please much |
1699s | it okay away boom oh this is by mod West |
1706s | and it's a pixel art map of Gielinor oh |
1708s | wow and at jagex westphall versions you |
1712s | can download and I know who's in a chat |
1713s | as well so if you'd like to sell out a |
1716s | bit and spam is nothing west of the mod |
1719s | West yeah don't I don't even know where |
1721s | this is my desktop background that's |
1724s | what it's about to ask for knows a is |
1725s | missing right yeah there's a little boat |
1728s | yes I see for me but on the far left is |
1729s | all boat that says winos |
1731s | or something like that because he is |
1732s | predicting people to say that but um |
1733s | well you've lost the scale if you had |
1735s | all the consonants oh yeah I really like |
1738s | it yeah Oh shameless plug time if you |
1740s | are if you do really like maps of get an |
1741s | R there are some fantastic once in the |
1744s | runescape merge tool a back street much |
1747s | like that and the link you will help if |
1748s | anything else was there and then click |
1750s | merchandise do that whether there is |
1752s | incomplete so the desert are you |
1756s | committing when it is complete that we |
1758s | can they get to gonna get a full version |
1762s | we have a level of detail in this is |
1764s | extraordinary no I think he did all of |
1766s | this in his free time so very impressive |
1768s | hopefully this will emerge door actually |
1771s | yeah we should send that cross because |
1772s | we can probably make that happen |
1773s | actually here no I have to pay mod West |
1775s | so they know supply we don't pay him |
1778s | currently yeah right what I could do we |
1785s | get the result some straw for please of |
1787s | course we can so we asked should the |
1789s | Newton it is not face guards strength |
1792s | bonus be plus six or plus five and fifty |
1795s | one percent of you say plus six and |
1797s | forty nine percent of you place say plus |
1799s | five |
1799s | there's a referendum or something should |
1803s | be like you see a few comment about plus |
1805s | four votes maybe a common thing we |
1808s | should go five point five and actually |
1810s | got me thinking should we do advice |
1811s | that's we could like hmm I mean it would |
1814s | be probably actually a pain in the ass |
1816s | to do but potentially I guess yeah well |
1821s | thanks you'll be back on that guys we'll |
1822s | take it into account having a consensus |
1827s | yeah we're not sure we asked you guys |
1829s | you guys aren't sure right there so what |
1833s | we thinks best for the game I mean also |
1835s | the I think we're gonna have too much |
1836s | we're gonna look at what's happening to |
1838s | the Serb helm and stuff like that |
1839s | because obviously deserves to have its |
1841s | place and obviously as you guys have |
1845s | also pointed out it's harder to obtain |
1847s | than the job as well so yeah I mean as |
1851s | in the discussion earlier we we sort of |
1853s | talked about betting slot helmets in |
1855s | general like we say we think there's a |
1856s | bit more room at the top anyway this may |
1858s | not end up being the best helm ever for |
1860s | the rest of old school we have a little |
1862s | bit of wiggle room especially given a |
1863s | lot of the time |
1864s | we'll be using slight helmets so there |
1867s | is space up there yeah thanks for your |
1869s | feedback |
1870s | guys he's very bad news feedback as well |
1873s | so get people give keep them giving it |
1876s | if you think we're doing the wrong thing |
1877s | when it comes to releasing stuff tell us |
1880s | this is a bigger topic as well it's not |
1882s | just the helmet but honestly how do we |
1885s | do rewards and how do we handle the idea |
1888s | of adding the best and stuff it's |
1891s | always constantly walking a tightrope |
1893s | right it's very difficult to get this |
1895s | right the things where we've got it |
1897s | wrong over the years I think |
1898s | whilst we haven't made change to and I |
1901s | think the committees mostly commented on |
1903s | the fact that blow-up is quite powerful |
1904s | we got things like the twisted bow which |
1907s | is very powerful in certain places but |
1910s | certain things I think we've done better |
1912s | like the boots of Cerberus I think |
1914s | they're they're pretty good how do we |
1916s | keep moving forward I mean old schools |
1918s | been running over six and a half years |
1921s | now which is pretty incredible by the |
1923s | way but how do we keep on adding rewards |
1927s | because we can't add a new boss we can't |
1929s | add any raids and stuff without having |
1930s | suitable rewards for it I mean that's |
1933s | the incent if we're going to play that |
1934s | content so I'm very interested in what |
1938s | the community thinks about this and how |
1940s | we keep how do we find there was a |
1941s | niches and where can we push the |
1943s | boundaries a little bit and move things |
1945s | a bit more forward perhaps we can agree |
1947s | and poll longer-term I guess |
1950s | power creep roadmap with the players it |
1953s | doesn't give away how introduce to |
1954s | content but it's like a stage of the |
1956s | games development in two or three years |
1957s | time should we introduce X item rather |
1959s | than what we currently do which is we've |
1961s | got this cool idea for a bit of content |
1967s | disgusting years now just a sort of |
1970s | collective building the road maps a good |
1972s | show we were just talking about sort of |
1973s | doing a bundle of rewards in a poll with |
1976s | sort of no context of where they come |
1977s | from and that all I need to pull my mic |
1979s | down apparently the Bacardi maneuver |
1983s | more other thing yeah we'll do that how |
1988s | do you guys feel about that would you be |
1989s | confident and comfortable voting for |
1991s | rewards without knowing where they're |
1992s | coming from |
1993s | but we would put sort of in terms of |
1996s | life cycle of the product and the game |
1998s | when you'd expect to see you know new |
2000s | meta changing rewards essentially tier |
2002s | 80 revenue just dropping on a runefest |
2004s | presentation or something like that and |
2007s | on typing of existing bits the content |
2010s | which you think might need to be |
2011s | rebalanced we met last week mod gambit |
2014s | to talk about all you might like to do |
2016s | how am I like to address fixing existing |
2018s | content still very early stages it was |
2020s | just to come do score cm seam we don't |
2023s | need the picture to the old-school theme |
2024s | wide answer you to included and what's |
2027s | the right way to do let's get the |
2029s | players opinions on what we'd like to do |
2031s | [Music] |
2032s | yeah absolutely so like so we met last |
2036s | week to plan out essentially a series of |
2038s | opinion polls and surveys whereby we |
2041s | categorize each bit of old or existing |
2044s | content that you guys wants to fix so |
2046s | we're talking sort of minigames |
2048s | equipment rebalancing try think it sort |
2051s | of the other school drop tables yeah and |
2053s | we're going to pitch them to you and run |
2055s | a series of opinion polls like I say to |
2057s | tell prioritize which are the most |
2059s | important I think especially earlier |
2062s | earlier this year is around sort of |
2064s | February March time you guys said you |
2067s | know while we're pumping out a lot of |
2069s | new content or increasingly adding |
2072s | things to the game some of you would |
2074s | like to slow down a bit and revisit |
2076s | things that exist already and fix them |
2077s | up so before we do that we want to know |
2079s | exactly which bits they exist in the |
2081s | game already are the most important for |
2083s | us to focus on and how we go about that |
2085s | so it's going to be a bit of a process |
2086s | to to lay out that plan but you guys |
2090s | were here more about that soon and won't |
2092s | have a chance to give you a view back |
2093s | you know some staff mechanics I think |
2095s | that was including our shortlist yes |
2096s | well so that the idea is an in-game poll |
2099s | where especially we do always fix |
2102s | content like week in week out we'd make |
2104s | small changes but it might be like you |
2106s | want to see larger scale existing |
2108s | changes evolution really mm-hmm no and |
2112s | it makes sense again you know as the |
2113s | game ages and grows up and you know you |
2115s | guys are playing the game you know you |
2117s | get stronger you know content is just |
2118s | less useful to you so if you're not |
2120s | playing it and let's make it better |
2121s | mm-hmm mechanics is a big one that |
2124s | people are asking about a lot |
2126s | it's a big one especially in terms of |
2129s | well the literal Devon and cueing of it |
2131s | so it's really Porton for us to |
2134s | understand not just how many of you |
2135s | wants it but also how much you want to |
2137s | compare to other updates because it is |
2139s | tired always bent on that rather than |
2141s | something else so before we go ahead and |
2143s | just do something like that and dedicate |
2144s | that much time I think I started Ryan by |
2147s | using the word evolution don't panic |
2151s | it's fine |
2152s | questions I don't know who asked this is |
2154s | very sorry but I think is a good |
2155s | question |
2155s | could we get a way to select which game |
2157s | messages are filtered this could be by |
2159s | right-clicking messages that appear so |
2161s | currently you can choose to filter |
2162s | messages but you can't choose which |
2163s | messages to filter unfortunately not it |
2170s | would be a big change to how the chat |
2172s | system works to do it something on that |
2173s | levels we could do something more manual |
2176s | for certain ones if there's a few you |
2178s | want toggleable we could probably do |
2181s | something there so like if it's the |
2184s | messages I think I read something done |
2185s | online the other day about the messages |
2187s | that the Hydra changing and with what |
2190s | messages you get in the chat there might |
2193s | not have been consensus around those |
2194s | about what people want hidden and what |
2196s | people don't want isn't so in those |
2199s | specific instances we could maybe add |
2200s | toggles but globally no okay so what I |
2206s | say is at Jagex we we have any specific |
2209s | instances of stuff you might like |
2210s | toggled and then we can see whether or |
2212s | not it is doable next question currently |
2216s | finding a clan to pvm which requires |
2218s | visiting the forums and stumbling across |
2219s | the latest bumped thread could the old |
2222s | Trading Post be repurposed to a clan hub |
2224s | and then you can advertise what type of |
2226s | clan you are what combat slash total |
2228s | level you must be to join and then apply |
2230s | to new plans directly in the game really |
2237s | worked except it was essentially still |
2239s | the grand exchange just then it is a |
2241s | different fashion so that system |
2243s | wouldn't be able to do that but it |
2246s | sounds like a fantastic idea something |
2251s | more like that would be good really good |
2252s | but I agree this is definitely a problem |
2254s | I mean the forum's aren't very active in |
2257s | general no one really uses them |
2259s | it is hard to find it right the right |
2261s | clan it truly is and kinds are a pretty |
2264s | big part of the game so who can a |
2268s | success rate of fermenting zemerik wines |
2270s | scale with cooking level starting at |
2273s | fifty percent at sixty-five cooking and |
2275s | no longer failing at 99 it's odd that |
2277s | the chance remains the same from 65 to |
2279s | 99 I can't speak to that balancing the |
2283s | burn rate of what for example fermenting |
2285s | Sammy whines you know I mean the your |
2288s | success rate with regular wine improves |
2290s | the chipping level increases in this way |
2292s | and I'm pretty sure it does it's been |
2293s | one of them to made wines yeah we could |
2298s | look at it yeah I'm largely indifferent |
2300s | as well yeah worth of consideration |
2304s | we've asked recently but might be worth |
2307s | asking again just to make sure it's |
2308s | fresh in our minds do you feel about |
2310s | locking Zorro behind the quest |
2311s | requirement is necessary this is quite a |
2314s | different question and that we're asking |
2316s | what do you think of it this is more of |
2317s | a is it necessary there's too I mean |
2320s | necessary I guess we're talking about |
2321s | the bat side of this but really there's |
2323s | two arms to this of should it be that |
2326s | easy to access a boss that's got you |
2330s | know endgame powerful items of the |
2331s | minute secondly the bottom problem in |
2338s | general I prefer not to change getting |
2340s | content for the sake of butts although |
2342s | obviously is generally a pretty good |
2344s | solution for that sort of thing we saw |
2346s | some success last year and the year |
2348s | prior when we did stuff like the gods |
2351s | are so many now I'm trying to member |
2352s | like the new the new floor of these |
2354s | temple for Sammy wires you had to start |
2358s | Dragon Slayer to build the anti Dragon |
2361s | shield yeah that kind of stuff actually |
2364s | but obviously the more endgame content |
2367s | like Zora |
2368s | I guess would be more successful for |
2370s | longer if we make no change yeah I'm not |
2374s | sure how much the anti botting team has |
2376s | looked specifically focused on the |
2379s | robots and what they can do about them |
2381s | but maybe that's worth an investigation |
2384s | as well secondly which quest mm-hmm some |
2387s | people say somebody else will say |
2388s | regicide and then pretty with any |
2390s | question between the two |
2392s | as the first I wouldn't make a good song |
2395s | the yell song of the else would be a |
2397s | huge change to something people can |
2401s | access relatively early on and their |
2402s | account at the minute I think it would |
2404s | be too big a change I think somebody |
2407s | else is overkill as well um you know |
2409s | talking about this the other day well in |
2410s | one swing sort of had a laugh because |
2412s | you said you've been doing since over |
2413s | lately and something you'd like to add |
2415s | lock it behind something um I think I'm |
2417s | in the retro Seidel camp person he feels |
2419s | about right you've got to go through |
2421s | underground past a couple times by then |
2423s | but it's not quite as heavy as like we |
2424s | say some of the elves probably put it |
2426s | around there I finished somebody else |
2428s | now so we passed so we can okay forget |
2430s | that then there it is I mean so far you |
2432s | can sort of start it right not regicide |
2435s | here yeah yeah there's just me never get |
2437s | in the air underground past so it's |
2440s | already quite a hard bit to get to so |
2445s | he's finishing that quest gonna make the |
2447s | difference we've already completed |
2448s | underground paths and all the clubs are |
2451s | there lots of support from one again |
2452s | party but I think let's leave this |
2454s | question here more looking team yeah |
2457s | none of us this subject matter experts |
2458s | really are we - none of us what's ours |
2460s | or the well in general yeah I mean |
2464s | we've seen the profit of killings over |
2466s | rise significantly since we've removed |
2468s | the free trial for example so it's clear |
2470s | that there is some profitability being |
2471s | taken away from genuine players and if |
2474s | we can return that that's good what are |
2476s | your plans for raids free there's some |
2478s | burnout in the high level ppm community |
2480s | group contents good for the game and |
2482s | recent content has been solo oriented a |
2483s | new challenge would be fun so oh I'm not |
2491s | sure how much I want to say I mean yeah |
2493s | it's fine I've been thinking and it is |
2495s | mostly just thinking at this stage like |
2496s | to just be so clear and manage |
2498s | expectations I had a few conversations |
2500s | with aired about how we might package up |
2502s | another raid somewhere else in the world |
2504s | with a few other pieces of content but |
2507s | that's all I'm gonna say actually and |
2509s | might as well not spoken yeah definitely |
2514s | no yeah we like raids I think making |
2518s | them like playing them and often you |
2520s | guys love playing them as well |
2522s | we wouldn't announce something like that |
2524s | on a Q&A anyway but it's nice to know |
2526s | there's a bit of appetite there and |
2527s | we'll try and feed that when the time is |
2528s | right a lot of players calling out for |
2531s | metaphor or a desert theme sort of raid |
2533s | I think that's maybe quite a predictable |
2537s | place because it's kind of calling for |
2539s | some big content we haven't done |
2540s | anything big in the desert for a while |
2542s | but that's not to say there aren't other |
2544s | parts of the map where we could |
2545s | introduce big high level content and we |
2549s | may or may not be planning something |
2550s | along those lines want to go underwater |
2552s | at some point I'll say no more for now |
2555s | we've gotta go underwater at some point |
2558s | you need a penguin questline penguin |
2561s | right he's got like lots of rooms of |
2564s | penguins no no but it's like there's all |
2570s | Dutch games used to play ITV classes we |
2572s | just murder we win the Olympics let's |
2576s | say seamless transition you can't kill |
2579s | penguins kill the cows in the fields |
2581s | that's absolutely okay back to chat |
2586s | questions arm the hobos says what kind |
2589s | of room in the game is there for more |
2590s | guilds like a runecrafting deal at all |
2592s | perhaps a the tanks guild the tank I'm |
2599s | just reading what I've got on this time |
2601s | look I don't know sure tanks tanks guilt |
2605s | is thanks yeah sure anyway guilds have |
2608s | to be tanks guilty what kind of room in |
2611s | the game is that I mean there's room for |
2613s | all of them right as long as the content |
2614s | matches I'm a personal fan of guilds it |
2616s | just it just feels like good my sort of |
2618s | traditional runescape content that's |
2619s | creates a central hub for most skills |
2622s | and for most skills that don't have one |
2624s | that kind of central have already exists |
2626s | somewhere anyway the last videos would |
2629s | come it's been quite some time farming |
2631s | of the high street farming yeah I think |
2632s | that's a guilt but yeah I really like |
2634s | guild as well I think they're pretty |
2635s | solid updates and you can pack a lot of |
2638s | features in there quite under fits |
2640s | existing game content survey yeah I love |
2645s | yeah a lot of people are asking if a |
2647s | great art project I know a lot of people |
2649s | used to play that back in the day is |
2651s | that because you enjoyed it or because |
2652s | their boobs look that's where the roofs |
2654s | the robes looked |
2654s | good boobs took a long time to get that |
2660s | the the Pharma guild really set the bar |
2663s | quite high for the Guild's so who had to |
2665s | make any changes in the future we |
2667s | probably have to introduce well some |
2668s | really compelling content that brings |
2670s | you back periodically but not wanting |
2672s | you to train there constantly which is |
2674s | quite hard balance to strike yeah well |
2676s | obviously the the farming contracts do |
2677s | that really well maybe we could expand |
2679s | that kind of idea to some of the lesser |
2680s | used guilds yeah do you do see a few |
2683s | coins for max guild as well |
2685s | I'd be amazed if like that now was the |
2688s | time to start thinking you know I think |
2689s | we have enough max players to justify |
2691s | our max skills but I can totally see one |
2693s | coming someday probably probably hit 10 |
2695s | years still trying to work out what the |
2698s | plan meant by a tank guild |
2700s | maybe it's just a room where you go in |
2701s | in the middle with players in a squares |
2703s | all around you and they will just attack |
2705s | you and you're trying to survive like |
2706s | it's just a depends yeah yeah I mean in |
2713s | terms of this like your survey on what |
2715s | people want like minigames are something |
2717s | we've not really delivered much um they |
2720s | were expensive which is the mainly the |
2721s | reason why so if you are really keen |
2723s | make sure you shout for that and make it |
2726s | be known because yeah I wouldn't mind |
2728s | working something like great up for |
2730s | ejector and re delivering that Ironman |
2733s | gills but just have a bunch of cubicles |
2735s | where you're all just sort of standing |
2736s | there by yourself instance the lonely |
2743s | house chorus you have any more questions |
2744s | well reading from chat third sir dog |
2749s | says any thoughts on revamping some |
2751s | Slayer bosses like Cortes guardians or |
2752s | others or sire I know we do bench and |
2756s | loss we so I'm asking this mania because |
2759s | we asked this question on a QA a lot so |
2761s | I say yeah cool that one suggestion you |
2763s | made sounds quite reasonable when we |
2764s | don't really follow up you mean there's |
2766s | a difference between a full-blown rework |
2768s | someone says rework I think we simply |
2769s | burn it down and start from scratch |
2771s | with it with the same concepts about |
2772s | revamp as a player says yeah less |
2775s | intense than reworks |
2776s | we know what the problems are with them |
2778s | they're both very similar I mean a bit |
2780s | societ your damage gets canceled its |
2783s | transition points not easy to solve as |
2786s | it currently is so would it would be I |
2788s | guess more I would people I don't want a |
2790s | refund to try and sort that and not |
2792s | other problems with that people have a |
2793s | fire as well doggone I think it's less |
2796s | of a big deal it's just a lot of waiting |
2798s | around so it's we'd be speeding up |
2799s | certain mechanics the balancing of the |
2802s | boss feels a bit off as well in terms of |
2803s | the rewards you get so it's achievable |
2806s | but that's not currently in the schedule |
2809s | that we could be done yeah I don't know |
2811s | if he's gonna be upset with me for |
2812s | saying this but what Huskies actually |
2814s | taking it upon himself to start looking |
2815s | at the sire stuff I think as even on his |
2819s | Ironman he's got something like 1500 |
2820s | Casey he told me so he's well well |
2822s | versed about well what experienced in |
2825s | the problems so he's taking a look at it |
2827s | I don't know if he's made any changes |
2828s | just yet and obviously like I say |
2830s | they're not working to the schedule |
2831s | there's nothing official planned but |
2833s | hopefully there will be some progress |
2835s | sometime in terms of the grotesque |
2837s | Guardians I don't think anything's gone |
2839s | into that just yet other than just |
2840s | taking down all of your feedback and |
2842s | suggestions so we have got it all |
2844s | documented and when we've got time we |
2847s | can take a look at that as well cool |
2850s | question here again I'm sorry I don't |
2852s | who asked this big apologies thanks for |
2854s | asking it |
2854s | following the expansion's treasure |
2856s | Trailz soon become saturated rewards |
2858s | could a new activity be introduced to |
2860s | port obtaining cosmetic items yes cool |
2866s | next let us know wax everything you'd |
2868s | like to be introduced I think it's a |
2869s | good question to ask actually because |
2871s | each time we look at reddit right |
2873s | expansion we say ok cool let's give |
2875s | another reason for people to do trailer |
2876s | trailers make it more profitable but by |
2879s | introducing new rewards and then |
2880s | encouraging players to try and get the |
2881s | rewards they're doing more treasure |
2883s | Trailz yet more items come into the game |
2884s | so the value of those items increase |
2886s | almost quite in counterintuitive yeah |
2890s | it's a double-edged sword isn't it I |
2892s | just uh know if the questions focused on |
2895s | to make treasure Trailz you know have |
2897s | less donation returns I guess or if |
2899s | we're just looking for another treasure |
2901s | to tell like activity to deliver similar |
2903s | types of rewards if it's the former then |
2905s | II I think you've captured it in a |
2906s | nutshell it is just one of those things |
2909s | looking for other activities then yes |
2911s | like a big fans of having multiple ways |
2913s | to offer multiple various of content |
2915s | that's what risk is all about a huge |
2916s | depth of content completely elves in |
2921s | prif have a rare unique item on their |
2923s | feeding loot table good arbor high level |
2925s | feeding NPCs get their own items to |
2927s | revive them when they come worth doing |
2929s | pretty paraphrasing I like this is a |
2934s | suggestion we had a question people |
2936s | expect the players said a lot of the |
2938s | high level thieving NPCs are dead |
2939s | because they don't have any incentive |
2941s | and I think this would be a nice way to |
2944s | get players doing them without affecting |
2946s | XP rates so if they had something nice |
2948s | on them the elf one is the oven signet |
2950s | right which boosts your use of crystal |
2951s | equipment it's just a case of designs so |
2955s | if you guys have any ideas for uniques |
2956s | that could be big pocketed then we could |
2958s | consider adding there's some kind of |
2960s | thieving boosting equipment or some kind |
2962s | oh you've got the Rogues outfit yeah it |
2966s | doesn't have to be specific to thieving |
2967s | I guess if it's in theme with whoever |
2969s | you're stealing from but yeah if you |
2973s | have ideas let us know like this |
2977s | question but we have to consider XP race |
2979s | so Archie grill asks can we please have |
2982s | a default option on a jewelry box this |
2983s | would be in line with other teleport |
2985s | items in player in house I'm just trying |
2994s | to think how many ups are using on that |
2996s | thing that might be why already and it |
3002s | gets upgraded would have to check but in |
3009s | principle laughs nothing against adding |
3011s | a fortune I'm seeing a few yeses but so |
3014s | most more knows the yeses we have to |
3017s | fault on other things would there be a |
3020s | reason for not adding it to the jewelry |
3022s | box that's not relevant for the others |
3024s | well there's a burst of yes why not |
3026s | suddenly I think the reason would be |
3029s | you're removing a click yeah I mean |
3032s | obviously - already incredibly powerful |
3033s | but it's not much to add a default |
3037s | left-click option that seems reasonable |
3039s | with other other items in the Poh have |
3041s | it |
3042s | to examine X because it upgrades it |
3044s | might have some interesting |
3046s | functionality yeah what happens in check |
3048s | there may be the reason we didn't go |
3051s | you think instead of Y you wants it and |
3053s | why you wouldn't it seems on the surface |
3057s | it seems quite reasonable idea |
3059s | lots of chat and spam about group |
3061s | Ironman mode so the situation is as it |
3064s | was the what engine worked needed for |
3066s | group Ironman is needed for clans and |
3068s | that work is happening but in there I |
3071s | don't say in the background but it's a |
3074s | slow work and this happening when we're |
3076s | in a position to poll group Ironman will |
3078s | tell you and we will pull it I don't |
3080s | think we really formalized group Ironman |
3081s | we kind of acknowledge that it's a |
3083s | pretty good idea and you say you want it |
3085s | so then we'll revisit it when if we fall |
3088s | I can offer it which is coming for the |
3090s | works kind of clowns anyway I think the |
3092s | closest we've actually come to and |
3094s | officially announcing it is like a Mac a |
3097s | late-night stream worries like require |
3100s | money I will do that or something that's |
3102s | not officially in anyway and that was |
3106s | when you're still working here sorry I |
3107s | kind of gathered but yeah official in |
3110s | anyway I go for one more question and I |
3113s | kind of revisit the announcements just |
3115s | in case you missed them and a start the |
3116s | stream and I spoke very quickly sorry |
3119s | can you pull a minigame task system this |
3121s | would help revive old content and |
3122s | encourage people to try out a variety of |
3124s | minigames repeat that one point |
3130s | can you poll a minigame tastic system |
3133s | this would help revive old content and |
3135s | encourage people to try out a variety of |
3136s | meaning like what do you see it being so |
3138s | that's what I was going to ask well I |
3140s | quit the person who asked this question |
3141s | flesh it out a bit more with it with the |
3143s | task be go and play X minigame or would |
3146s | it be tasked with in the minigames |
3148s | themselves and go to Castle Wars and |
3150s | score a flag capture would you maybe I |
3154s | should tickets for that kind of stuff |
3155s | like a almost problem I have with it is |
3158s | it gives you an objective that is |
3159s | contrary to the whip object of a winning |
3161s | them in the air and generally that |
3163s | causes problems you want the players to |
3166s | be and said if I still win the mini game |
3167s | we've seen time time again where many |
3169s | games have had flawed designs in this |
3171s | fashion which causes players to afk or |
3173s | stand still or do something that's not |
3176s | aiming to win and it defeats the point |
3178s | of the game so I think that's the |
3181s | problem with it a system there it's not |
3183s | the same we don't need an incentive to |
3184s | try and make certain minigames much of |
3187s | us at different times I think this may |
3189s | be the solution for that but having a |
3190s | task system probably causes problems |
3192s | maybe we can revive that minigame reward |
3194s | shop from 2013 department content well |
3197s | we can introduce it as is but there |
3200s | won't be much incentive just yet if we |
3203s | come up with more designs for minigame a |
3204s | generic minigame shop rewards then yeah |
3207s | that might be the solution that we're |
3209s | looking for they become a funny dialogue |
3213s | times are tough first I will go thank |
3219s | you very much for asking your questions |
3220s | I'm afraid Brown being able to get |
3221s | through all of them there's no Q&A on |
3223s | Wednesday this thing is taking its place |
3225s | but we'll be back after invest probably |
3227s | we have to clarify about just to make |
3229s | sure everybody's in the office there is |
3231s | the such thing as wound flu where we |
3233s | will get sick from having to mingle with |
3234s | the masses it's like making sure we've |
3237s | got the right people in production team |
3238s | bringing in fellow traders but yeah as |
3240s | bring a deodorant etc if you have asked |
3244s | a question I have an honest I'm very |
3245s | sorry keep asking us the question and |
3248s | maybe we'll get featured and I do have |
3250s | more on my tablet which will ask the |
3251s | next time we're live sorry very quickly |
3253s | before we wrap things up someone asking |
3255s | about PvP and our approach to PvP |
3258s | content in general obviously we're still |
3261s | awaiting the results of the currently |
3262s | running bounty hunter rewards poll at |
3264s | the end of which is a question asking |
3266s | people who voted no why they voted no I |
3268s | wish I hopefully give us a bit of |
3269s | insight into your guys behavior which is |
3271s | not something we've really done before |
3272s | obviously it's totally an honor system |
3274s | type things we'll take the results with |
3276s | a bit of bit of salt but hopefully they |
3279s | will somewhat guide our next steps in |
3282s | terms of how we approach introducing PvP |
3283s | PvP content you guys may have heard talk |
3286s | about us exploring ideas like a PvP |
3289s | Council or introducing content there's |
3292s | strictly for PvP worlds or bounty hunter |
3293s | worlds only that kind of thing we are |
3296s | looking into that as well as building a |
3297s | discord server you might have heard talk |
3299s | off before where we're going to make |
3300s | sure every type of PK is represented to |
3302s | give their opinions but all of that |
3304s | takes time is we're still planning that |
3307s | out an agenda and a strategy still needs |
3308s | to be laid out |
3310s | before that can take place but it's very |
3311s | much still in the works so hold tight |
3314s | for that one it is coming cool thank you |

3421s | of features we aren't giving you an |
3424s | exhaustive list but there's kind of a |
3425s | bit more of a general bit of information |
