Please please please, can this reach people who actually can make a difference in the company. The game needs crucial fixes and updates to bring it to a MMO of today’s standards. The tick system is fine and makes Runescape, but the input delay, dead clicks, keybinding abilities, lack of in-game macros and inconsistent combat bugs are holding Runescape back from being a GREAT MMO game in today’s world.

I don’t think I’m alone here, or even in the minority when I say that i would love to see the game that I’ve grown up on and come to know and love, go stagnant for a month to a couple months to simply fix things and update raw gameplay mechanics.

I love this game, and I have high hopes for mobile release to revitalize the player base and bring back old and new players alike, but keeping them around will be difficult to maintain with a game engine system decades old...

We hear you, and have been discussing options along these lines. Nothing to confirm for a while but it’s fair to say we also want to get more attention on core improvements.

(Edit: and we’re always looking to take on more engine devs)
