Hey 'Scapers!
We're getting super close to the launch of GIM (6 days to go!). We've just released a new preview video showing some new footage of GIM along with an overview of the mode.
Check it out below:Ā https://youtu.be/5nMKLg-EZ90

Will there be a Mods / Jagex GIM group? Iā€™d love to see you guys doing a casual GIM with RSGuy hopefully making a nice lil series to go along with it? šŸ¤žšŸ˜

There's an awesome video being edited right now where Mod RSGuy and 3 other J-Mods race to Dragon Slayer - including a wild Mod Raven no less!

Does the "Total Level" journey achievement require every member to reach a specific amount, or is it the total level sum across the entire group? In the video Mod Rsguy says for one of the achievements for journey 0 it requires "a total level of 40 per player." However, the achievement description says "achieve 80 total level across the group." I assume the total is because taking the number of players in the group multiplied by 40, but the wording leads me to believe that one person can gain 80 levels (or whatever amount of levels) to unlock group storage. Is this correct?

What will happen to the completed achievements if a new member joins after some of them are completed? Will group storage access be lost?

Thank you for the clarification. Trying to plan with one of my team members not being able to play for the first few weeks, but want to get them added for founder status.

It's the sum across the whole group - it scaled based on your group size so 40 per player would be 80 for a 2-person group, 120 for a 3-person group etc. So yeah one player can boss out all the levels if they so desired - at some point everyone will need to start pulling their weight however.

If group members change, then achievements will update accordingly but group storage is literally locked behind the most simple of achievements so unless no one else in your group wanted to do Cook's Assistant I can't imagine you'd ever lose access.

Given that we will have competitive GIM. What does the competitive mean? How will the hiscore look like to make it competitive?

Competitive means all progress needs to come from within the group - this means you won't be able to boss with others, you'll need to do 100% damage on enemies etc. Full rules will be displayed in game and there are blogs with more information if you want to read them.

There will be a different page for the Competitive hiscores so will be very clear which is which.

Very hype for this game mode, however, can we get some clarification of whether or not these still will be world 1st broadcasted for group ironman? And if so, does 1 person completing is enough for the broadcast or do all of em have to complete it?

No, these won't trigger again. We opted for new broadcasts to be group related - while I understand the appeal for them I think it helps keep the focus on the groups that are accomplishing awesome things. There's also the practical production side of things where with unlimited time maybe we'd consider but thought we'd invest our time in other places.

Thanks for answering, I would like to understand more on the hiscore part. Will it be ranked in terms of combined XP per 2-5 groups like how osrs gim is, or will rs3 will also have hiscore wrt combined XP for a specific skill as well?

Combined XP per group; different hiscores for each group size.
