Jagex are hosting a General Q&A livestream on Tuesday, the 6th of July 2021.
Leave a comment with your question(s), and the developers might answer some of them. We shall see.
The stream will be live on RuneScape's Twitch channel at 16:00 Game Time (UTC). Be sure to tune in.
External link →Thank you for all these questions and for setting this up last night /u/5-x! We've captured everything so far and we'll grab more around 4pm to bring to the team.
Currently we have Mod Osborne and Mod Pi joining us (lots of combat questions to cover!). We'll hopefully get a third guest based on the remaining question topics too.
Hey everyone. Just an update on tonight's stream - we've had to make a call to flip tonight's stream to tomorrow and move the JvM stream to today to make sure we can get the guests we feel can answer your questions best. Schedule surprises reared their head again.
We have a ton of information already pulled together for your questions, so we'll make sure tomorrow is worth it. Sorry for another disrupted stream schedule, but please do keep the questions coming - we'll fire through as many as we possibly can tomorrow!
When is the log in lockout postmortem information coming out?
We're still very much planning to do this, but with Mobile and the big stuff coming up beginning this month, it's been de-prioritized a little.
It will probably be a few months yet, but it's a story we want to tell somehow.
Any update from Mod MIC on the prospect of past promotional items coming back to Marketplace oddment store?
What's the reasoning behind releasing Elder GWD in four parts?
Will "Behind the Scenes" articles ever come back, or do you intend to keep us in the dark regarding upcoming updates?
Is the concept of "hero items" dead, or will we see more of them?
What happened to Dagannoth Kings boss pet graphical rework?
Will we see more quests this year after the release of Elder GWD? Is the current storyline going to continue?
Any chance for a data livestream in the future?
I can answer a few of these that we didn't get to touch on in the Livestream!
Right now the entire hardcore ironman achievement hiscore is broken, being so bad that the entire frontpage is wrong and only one of the top 100 is even correct.
Is there any intent to fix this or acknowledging the issue?
Our Web and Design Team are really eager to look into this. Could you provide us any more information / specifics just to make sure the team have all the context to what is incorrect and how?
Here is a screenshot (from a previous thread 2 months ago, more broken since then) showing how the top 25 in the hardcore hiscore compare to their ironman hiscore (Screenshot names but first letter is censored to avoid players getting pms since it seemed like a system issue, I think I can get an uncensored if needed).
There is no reason to be lower runescore on ironman than hardcore ironman, at least not by more than 20-ish points. Please do note they can have accumulated far MORE runescore as a normal ironman than whats possible by the time of their hardcore death, as the player that died as hardcore with 69 total levels shows in the screenshot. Even 2k runescore is unlikely or impossible by that total level.
Here is a previous thread I made, some comments have interesting claims about why its broken, claiming they pull another players data on hardcore death.
I checked the top 100 and all but one had significant discripiancies from the ironman hiscore, most had 5-6 times as much runescore as hardcore than as ironman if not more and that is just impossible.
This is the hiscore in question
Thank you Hooli for responding.
Thanks for the great detail! I'll pass this to the team and hopefully we can get this sorted. Really appreciate the effort.
