| 1s | we are live as the unexpected no swoosh |
|---|---|
| 8s | we are here again never stream as pretty |
| 11s | usual and joining me from my left mod |
| 15s | ashes hello |
| 16s | Osborn ok and mod Timbo so we got into |
| 25s | quite let's talk about this fall but I |
| 28s | don't want to kick us off with the |
| 30s | annual survey and if that's ok yes |
| 32s | straighten your survey stuff you know |
| 34s | it's still going on by Andres assistant |
| 36s | oh yeah yeah but some chairs so how are |
| 39s | we doing on the annual survey um oh yeah |
| 41s | the UH new survey know I designed the |
| 43s | designer Diaries when I wrote some |
| 45s | questions for the annual yeah but anyway |
| 49s | I was involved yeah I new surveys going |
| 52s | really well we've got a forty thousand |
| 54s | respondents which is good we emailed |
| 57s | some people some people clicked a link |
| 58s | or the response has been largely |
| 62s | positive I think like the the updates |
| 64s | we've shown I think they've been some |
| 65s | nice nice surprises in there some people |
| 67s | like highlighting some things I like |
| 69s | really as well you know dachshund RS was |
| 72s | always a favorite |
| 72s | broccoli mustard was a favor so yeah I |
| 76s | do love how if anyone's not filled out |
| 77s | the survey you're kind of like on a like |
| 81s | swaying it a little bit yeah complete |
| 82s | manip something's but like it's |
| 93s | different from previous where we've done |
| 94s | it you know on a cheeky Survey Monkey |
| 96s | which i think is gdpr inappropriate now |
| 98s | so we now gone through a different |
| 100s | system which means that I don't get to |
| 102s | look at the results as much as I used to |
| 103s | because somebody has got the keys to |
| 104s | that the results but they're having a |
| 106s | few there have been a few things that we |
| 109s | found out so those will bleed out over |
| 112s | the weeks in terms of us giving results |
| 114s | a lot of questions were will we actually |
| 116s | see the results of this yes you will |
| 118s | some will come through at runefest for |
| 120s | particular talk their post stream but |
| 121s | yeah that's that the the survey ends I |
| 124s | think it's end of this month okay so |
| 126s | it's gonna be in like post room fest |
| 128s | well do some come live streams will show |
| 130s | the results as I said some will be arena |
| 133s | fest so please don't think we can high |
| 134s | I beat mother just dedicate the entire |
| 135s | Oh dream to who doesn't just love |
| 139s | looking at histograms just like mmm pie |
| 141s | charts Johnny loves it I bet so we're |
| 143s | gonna do about that but yeah that's |
| 146s | that's the positive stuff like people |
| 148s | have highlighting some things that they |
| 149s | really like have been some negatives and |
| 151s | that's kind of been corroborated by the |
| 152s | designer Diaries things like 120s it's |
| 157s | come up a fair amount and which we'll |
| 159s | talk about sections we talked about last |
| 163s | time around about kind of folding |
| 165s | questions together or folding updates |
| 167s | together some people had real issue with |
| 168s | which is understandable but we we have |
| 170s | pulled those independently before and |
| 172s | really this was about taking the update |
| 174s | to its natural extension of what it |
| 175s | would look like on release I mean just |
| 177s | trying to compare updates if we had |
| 179s | launched them and what we would have |
| 180s | done for each of those launches but um |
| 182s | yeah it's going well okay well please |
| 184s | think peace the answer the survey yep |
| 187s | okay then you mentioned that's gone to |
| 189s | designer diary |
| 190s | it released on Friday of course we |
| 192s | mentioned last week on stream is going |
| 193s | to hopefully release the end of the week |
| 194s | released on the Friday 30 minute plus |
| 203s | that was I mean it would be interesting |
| 208s | about that double take like 30 plus |
| 210s | minutes each time you know I don't think |
| 211s | that'd be fun we talk for the next one |
| 214s | see if s what Johnny's up for that you |
| 218s | beat Odell great one trial yeah that's |
| 221s | what they call this one taken by you in |
| 224s | yours but yeah so let's jump into it so |
| 230s | quick summary so for those of you who've |
| 231s | not seen a design diary in essence what |
| 234s | is the designs are what you hope to |
| 236s | accomplish for them the format is and |
| 237s | I'm hoping people are noticing there we |
| 239s | want to talk more we want to be more |
| 240s | transparent other things that we're |
| 241s | doing very recently we had to change to |
| 243s | our teams the teams that I've make up of |
| 246s | runescape and also the problems that |
| 249s | each of those teams are trying to solve |
| 250s | so that's a big change |
| 254s | so we wanted to kind of choose a way of |
| 256s | communicating that the moment can go |
| 258s | into depth and mine did we go into depth |
| 260s | so that was like a lot of deaths yeah so |
| 262s | we'll do that for we've done that for |
| 264s | episode of content which is one of our |
| 265s | teams |
| 265s | that's one dedicated to things like |
| 267s | quest |
| 267s | bosses dungeons landmasses skills that |
| 270s | kind of thing the content that you play |
| 273s | and then we will go into detail in the |
| 276s | kind of more contention is going to be |
| 278s | harder to make LiveOps |
| 279s | one which is fitting the make our |
| 281s | monetization stuff |
| 283s | but also our core game experience team |
| 285s | who are more mysterious kind of robes |
| 288s | and things that I'm not I'm here mister |
| 294s | but in the sense that would there's a |
| 296s | lot of room fest that we're going to be |
| 298s | doing showing stuff you're making yes |
| 300s | and that is all gonna be new so we're |
| 302s | going to introduce that team as well and |
| 304s | then if then we've got mobile oft about |
| 306s | which weird is actually in the same is |
| 308s | yeah it's no longer we're no longer |
| 310s | mobile its core experience as I think |
| 313s | works very mobile |
| 313s | yeah yes but we are going to separate |
| 316s | basically the two different yeah okay so |
| 318s | you guys don't dive into a little you |
| 321s | mention the news posts but I wouldn't |
| 322s | whatever can kind of touch on it a |
| 323s | little bit so yeah problems in like that |
| 326s | little header formats |
| 327s | yes it were so problem one there was |
| 329s | already too much content in the game |
| 330s | making it quite confusing to pick up I |
| 332s | don't think anybody was in who gonna be |
| 336s | argued again it's not surprised yeah the |
| 338s | game has been out for 18 years we've |
| 340s | been updating mostly weekly over that |
| 343s | entire 18 year period yeah 19 years 19 |
| 346s | year period through 19 years now yeah |
| 347s | yeah so yeah we have a lot of content in |
| 350s | game not all of it is very good or very |
| 353s | used sorry brutal one that isn't used |
| 364s | yeah by players anymore there's a very |
| 366s | specific method of very specific sets of |
| 368s | content that people use all the time |
| 369s | yeah so yeah we want to try and remaster |
| 374s | that content |
| 374s | yeah and that was a big picture what's |
| 376s | the definition of a remaster of content |
| 379s | is all of the things you'd loved about |
| 382s | that content in a package in a new form |
| 384s | with some new content some new things to |
| 386s | chase so we talked about it we talked |
| 389s | about God was one a lot in the design |
| 390s | diary I think and remastered to God Wars |
| 394s | dungeon one it would be the same general |
| 397s | as you know love like Grodd or we are |
| 399s | that sort of thing |
| 401s | but with new mechanics new loot maybe |
| 404s | gods also btr-90 - yeah that sort of |
| 407s | thing like but there will be something |
| 409s | new to chase there would be an elite |
| 410s | dungeon there would be a quest or there |
| 411s | would be skin content you love hourly |
| 414s | dungeons or there would be some skilling |
| 417s | content in the in there maybe the new |
| 419s | tonight got sores would be used a new a |
| 421s | new metal but they could be able to be |
| 423s | mined from the new crop was dungeon but |
| 425s | that sort of thing that's what every |
| 427s | master looks like the graphical polish |
| 429s | alright so choke quickly at the chat |
| 431s | someone said but why that when there are |
| 433s | areas are worse and presumably that's |
| 434s | just an example and this yeah yeah |
| 437s | please don't ya using combat encounters |
| 440s | to explain this because actually I find |
| 442s | that the easiest to explain yeah varrock |
| 444s | remastered again it doesn't have to be |
| 446s | Viroqua |
| 446s | and I players were saying well why don't |
| 447s | you do some of the lesser rework you |
| 449s | know least three work what I hope or |
| 452s | something but the very message talked |
| 453s | about today in the team was as mi |
| 456s | remaster yeah would be cool Zen Amaya is |
| 458s | an iconic piece of content with the two |
| 460s | paths for their fast and the slow path |
| 462s | of getting their random runes but lots |
| 465s | lots more experience and that sort of |
| 466s | thing so that's a good skilling remaster |
| 469s | for me yeah and would be ratting zmi to |
| 471s | make it again a worthwhile high |
| 475s | experience random ruin variants that's |
| 478s | it |
| 478s | some people have highlighted areas that |
| 481s | they're all things that they would like |
| 482s | remastered then nobody goes to and |
| 485s | doesn't really have a core of any kind |
| 486s | of quality for me yeah you doesn't have |
| 487s | an idea at the center of it there really |
| 488s | makes it valuable or I'd say well |
| 490s | obviously we should we work that because |
| 491s | that I I I think in our kind of new |
| 494s | world order we will probably look to |
| 496s | remove those yes yeah there's nothing in |
| 498s | there that is valuable it's not trying |
| 500s | to remaster you know I'm gonna annoy |
| 502s | somebody familiarize ation hmm let's try |
| 505s | not too familiar there's no point in |
| 507s | remastering that so in Mo's instance you |
| 508s | might well rip out gorgeous evil ass all |
| 511s | evenly but yeah it like we wouldn't have |
| 514s | remastered mobilising he's more rapid |
| 516s | there wasn't a core idea there that |
| 518s | conquest |
| 519s | yeah or conquest like there's no core |
| 520s | content there like people have really |
| 522s | enjoyed we don't have any desire to |
| 524s | remaster that busy and it's not iconic I |
| 526s | think one of the things is that we want |
| 528s | to remastered iconic pieces of content |
| 529s | as well yeah so all the things we talked |
| 531s | about so far like said oh my god boss |
| 533s | dungeon one |
| 534s | for rock all iconic pieces of content |
| 536s | and now remembers and them and yeah yeah |
| 540s | I know the reason for doing largely |
| 543s | oriented towards the iconic might be all |
| 544s | of them is that it tracks people back in |
| 547s | like those people who have a kind of |
| 549s | previous love history with runescape you |
| 551s | know they want that and like that's |
| 554s | that's something's really bugging cool |
| 556s | and then into problem 2 which is we're |
| 559s | trying to do too many different things |
| 561s | at once there's a bit more contentious I |
| 565s | think mainly because it's a message more |
| 567s | for us as a development team and players |
| 568s | don't feel it as much yeah which is as a |
| 572s | development team we are producing a lot |
| 573s | of things but as you know the like the |
| 576s | previous iteration of episodic content |
| 577s | producing temporary content is doing a |
| 579s | lot of new systems and ways of getting |
| 581s | engaged with things is doing huge quests |
| 586s | we're doing so much and I feel like that |
| 590s | is damaging our ability to serve players |
| 592s | who love a specific kind of common quest |
| 595s | is love quests bosses like bosses and |
| 597s | because we're doing so many things we're |
| 599s | not focusing on those and actually those |
| 600s | are the things that don't add to the |
| 602s | cognitive |
| 603s | it sorry the complexity of the game so |
| 606s | it was that point yeah you outlined both |
| 609s | you outlined in essence there's going to |
| 611s | be these content types that we focus on |
| 613s | in the short term is short-tempered yeah |
| 614s | so in addition style you mentioned some |
| 616s | sick bosses encounters drops yep |
| 619s | asynchronous minigames yep so in essence |
| 622s | ports and stuff like that correct yeah |
| 623s | and or not know I know a lot of people |
| 626s | were really worried about just having |
| 627s | parind we're going play around crazy |
| 629s | asynchronous crazy I think a lot of this |
| 632s | is going to be quite the interests of |
| 633s | already got hmm I think proportionately |
| 635s | out of all of these categories yeah I |
| 637s | think I agree with that they will be the |
| 639s | least updated so please don't feel like |
| 641s | a tease will be the month I'm likely to |
| 642s | incorporate I things like remastered |
| 644s | like a remastered miscellanea yeah I |
| 646s | wouldn't get mentions which I think it's |
| 647s | gonna happen now yeah keep talking about |
| 648s | it which which combines a lot of our |
| 650s | things it would be a miss lane Oh Pierre |
| 652s | I can't be as a content it would be a |
| 654s | remaster it would be an increase of |
| 657s | content yeah but we're not going to |
| 658s | remaster miscellanea every month yes |
| 661s | because you can't you can't do that and |
| 663s | we're releasing new ports expansion |
| 665s | every month you have to see right and I |
| 666s | don't |
| 666s | and we can design round it so that they |
| 668s | don't have to be checked in and all the |
| 670s | time yeah there are ways of getting |
| 671s | around them or making it easy to check |
| 673s | in yeah yeah centralizing it yeah |
| 676s | and now obviously the another one in the |
| 679s | big one really a skill in where we now |
| 681s | announced we are currently working on |
| 683s | two skills and difficulty to go to 120s |
| 686s | so I guess the question very broadly |
| 688s | speaking is why now it's very good |
| 691s | question yeah I mean one of the things |
| 693s | that we love about runescape as opposed |
| 695s | to say old school for example is we grow |
| 697s | but there are new challenges so how do |
| 700s | we bring so we could add in new skill |
| 702s | after new skill because to me skills are |
| 704s | how the avatar represent you know it's |
| 705s | how you are successful in the game that |
| 708s | is what I level that's how I unlock |
| 709s | things that's the joy of the game one |
| 711s | patterns we talked about two different |
| 712s | opportunities yeah we could go for new |
| 714s | skill off to new skirt off to new skill |
| 715s | keep going that room the problem with |
| 718s | that is that where that puts us in 10-15 |
| 719s | years time my wife there's so many |
| 724s | different ways to achieve for a person |
| 725s | who hasn't been here for a while that |
| 727s | kind of thing but we still think new |
| 728s | skills are valuable but actually if you |
| 730s | can extend and expand and enrich so |
| 733s | we're also talked about remasters as |
| 734s | well when people focus on the one 2012 |
| 736s | and the remastering and reworking skills |
| 738s | which is also going to be there if we |
| 742s | can enhance the core skills that we know |
| 744s | people love I think that's a real |
| 745s | positive I think we should grow I think |
| 748s | we should and I think skills is where we |
| 749s | should grow yep but doing it in the |
| 752s | skills that people know and value I |
| 754s | think that's also the right direction to |
| 756s | be putting in the mix with reworks and |
| 758s | new skills so in essence to I fit me to |
| 761s | it was last week but when it comes to |
| 762s | remaster in a skill let's say for |
| 765s | example construction yep which is on the |
| 766s | annual survey does that in essence has |
| 768s | to have to go to a 120 yeah no so there |
| 774s | are different ways of doing it |
| 774s | like I think construction works |
| 777s | personally I know a lot of people didn't |
| 779s | but what it needs most priority one is |
| 782s | it needs early work for me that's |
| 784s | Priority One if we don't have enough if |
| 786s | we have enough time and resource then I |
| 788s | would love to add a new training methods |
| 790s | new unlocks beyond 99 and actually put |
| 792s | in a 120 in there as well because |
| 794s | hopefully it's now an absolute joy to do |
| 796s | and then because of what we've talked |
| 798s | about how we're going to be balancing or |
| 799s | looking out and balance |
| 800s | you're also accelerating through it as |
| 801s | well a little bit more than before and |
| 803s | so 120s become more viable as well so |
| 805s | for me priority run is a rework of |
| 807s | construction obviously skill by skill |
| 809s | and then it is the 120 yeah in the inner |
| 812s | survey earlier they were completely tied |
| 813s | together and that's not the truth that's |
| 815s | not true |
| 816s | we pulled with pole construction we |
| 817s | looked at all yeah but if we only put |
| 820s | the effort into reworking the |
| 821s | construction it makes sense yeah to add |
| 823s | a 122 as well yeah I know no a lot of |
| 828s | people pointed at treasure hunter and |
| 829s | things like that the reason for me to do |
| 831s | this is that when we did things like |
| 834s | mining smithing where we did things like |
| 835s | a big-game hunter stuff like that even |
| 839s | bank we worked to an extent people pop |
| 841s | in to see it they might you know it |
| 844s | might play it for a bit but if you have |
| 845s | that motivation of unlocks lots of |
| 847s | things to get off the back of this piece |
| 848s | of content |
| 849s | yeah actually keeps people playing it |
| 851s | gives you it it's more reason to play |
| 855s | runescape it has got to be a good thing |
| 857s | mining and smithing was fantastic but |
| 859s | for two years of development you know |
| 862s | some people have already got 99 some |
| 866s | people have already got all the items |
| 867s | they wanted from it and they bounced off |
| 868s | air and I think that's a shame |
| 869s | I'd love to give up people other reasons |
| 871s | because of the unlocks because of the |
| 873s | skill itself do you stick around and try |
| 875s | to get other things within that skill I |
| 877s | think it's hard to say but in retrospect |
| 878s | do you think the rework would have |
| 881s | should have taken it to 120 there is an |
| 884s | argument and I think we discussed it a |
| 886s | lot we discuss yeah we actually and also |
| 888s | we also we talked about hunter to 120 a |
| 891s | lot with planned out time but with both |
| 895s | of those cases we felt like we didn't |
| 897s | have the time or resource because monies |
| 899s | from this thing had already been on for |
| 900s | two years because we only had a certain |
| 902s | amount of time to make it land out of |
| 903s | time we felt like we couldn't hit the |
| 905s | beats of things that we want to do with |
| 907s | 120 which we are going to do with any |
| 909s | ones we do in the future which is to be |
| 912s | honest unlocks at every level |
| 913s | new ways for training like worthwhile |
| 917s | unlocks massively what milestones |
| 919s | exactly and also a form of grace period |
| 922s | and but in you know embargo whether you |
| 924s | want to call it on the achievements that |
| 925s | people still feel they can own their |
| 926s | mass escapes calm cakes that kind of |
| 928s | thing there was a thread up recently |
| 929s | that was kind of effectively matching |
| 931s | this which was really nice |
| 933s | so we don't necessarily just want to |
| 935s | throw out 120s like that anyway as well |
| 937s | we want to make sure we do them right |
| 938s | and there's good reason for that |
| 940s | and I know people have been talking |
| 941s | about slurring dungeoneering as well |
| 942s | like why don't you feel that those out |
| 944s | like in you do more with that and we are |
| 945s | I'm hoping people have seen that Slayer |
| 947s | is getting that inject not an injection |
| 949s | of not like invention to or we brought |
| 952s | our load of stuff is getting some stuff |
| 953s | added Lisa pretty frequently and there's |
| 955s | no I mean that engineering 120 is |
| 957s | already full yeah |
| 958s | it has the flaws it has the resource |
| 959s | dungeons we've added things like enemies |
| 961s | I think 150 abyssal dungeon people |
| 963s | points to villain delete dungeons in |
| 965s | terms of diminishing dungeoneering 99 to |
| 969s | 120 I think that's what people largely |
| 970s | talking about which is understandable I |
| 972s | I always thought if it is another track |
| 974s | or another way to Train but I think some |
| 976s | people who see knows am i removing that |
| 977s | cop and then the additional part of the |
| 980s | third problem you guys thought about in |
| 982s | that video of course was the war with |
| 984s | dead |
| 984s | content which in essence the summary of |
| 990s | it is you do this content and then the |
| 992s | rewards out worthwhile right yeah in |
| 994s | essence coming back again I mean I'm not |
| 996s | sure people aren't too surprised by this |
| 997s | and they felt this like we do survey |
| 999s | work on every update we do we've done |
| 1001s | that for the past about 18 months I'd |
| 1004s | say |
| 1004s | hmm and every single update even those |
| 1007s | we that we now have deemed to be too |
| 1009s | rewarding things like herring farm came |
| 1011s | out with the feedback from that survey |
| 1012s | of it's not rewarding enough just think |
| 1014s | doesn't give me a reason to train why |
| 1015s | should I bother this is death |
| 1016s | content-based phrase is keep on coming |
| 1019s | up over and over again and there's a |
| 1020s | really good reason for that and timber |
| 1022s | ice alright talk too much one of the |
| 1026s | reasons is how we roll players yes we do |
| 1029s | not look to out mode any of our previous |
| 1031s | rewards yeah I think speaking as game |
| 1033s | the hunter we we tried to make sure |
| 1036s | every single bit of content and every |
| 1037s | reward is still relevant and we've been |
| 1040s | trying to keep the last 19 years worth |
| 1042s | of runescape rewards relevant in some |
| 1044s | way so when we've balanced content in |
| 1047s | the past we've given very small upgrades |
| 1048s | upgrades that don't feel significant to |
| 1051s | players but are statistically or |
| 1054s | numerically important so like a 2% |
| 1057s | increase or 1% increase but that's not |
| 1059s | big enough for ya the the the effort |
| 1064s | appearing like I think one of the |
| 1065s | biggest things that |
| 1066s | please keep banging on to me about is |
| 1068s | like t90 boots 1000 boots are too hard |
| 1071s | too expensive be greatly fast aren't |
| 1074s | worth while I'm sure Shani would agree |
| 1075s | with me as well I would up until elite |
| 1077s | engines came out yeah it's kind of sweet |
| 1080s | though I never went that's what that's |
| 1083s | one of them one of the things we added |
| 1085s | to try and alleviate that problem but |
| 1086s | when they when it come when they cuz |
| 1087s | we've got the least they've tr-85 |
| 1089s | boosters t90 boots but they degraded |
| 1091s | back to 285 it was worth it technically |
| 1094s | but it wasn't worth the cost |
| 1095s | so it wasn't dead content but it was |
| 1098s | like still like a zombie content it was |
| 1101s | love value for them yeah so I think I |
| 1104s | think with this problem and I'm Matt I'm |
| 1106s | I said in the video I'm gonna say now |
| 1108s | anyway is that we won't be releasing any |
| 1110s | more dead content ever again have you |
| 1113s | just said okay that's about to be |
| 1115s | tuckered so let me so I think in the |
| 1119s | video but like the aim would be that any |
| 1122s | content they were release would be |
| 1124s | clearly better than any previous context |
| 1127s | long ago name yeah and we would be not |
| 1130s | as not safeguarding over the content as |
| 1132s | much as we have done in the past but on |
| 1134s | the flip it's also not the Wild West of |
| 1136s | suddenly everything is accelerating yeah |
| 1139s | we're not gonna release 1099 weapons all |
| 1141s | of a sudden yeah it's going to be |
| 1142s | thought out and measured but yeah so the |
| 1146s | definite fits well obviously very open |
| 1150s | statement in that is bold that's fair |
| 1153s | enough so for a definition when I asked |
| 1156s | you the question of what is considered |
| 1159s | dead content the sawmill training in |
| 1165s | Rock okay |
| 1166s | completely dead content but the |
| 1170s | definition of dead content or what is |
| 1172s | dead content like out of them in-game |
| 1174s | because the definition think on this |
| 1176s | content that players don't use or don't |
| 1177s | value or don't think it's worthwhile |
| 1178s | when the training skills during combat |
| 1180s | or making money or but we're |
| 1183s | specifically talking about updates yes |
| 1185s | becoming launching as dead on launch |
| 1188s | okay dead on arrival yeah yeah so like |
| 1192s | if we if we released a brand new hunt |
| 1194s | method right now it would be better than |
| 1197s | whatever it is around it |
| 1198s | it was clearly different not not 2% |
| 1202s | better not 5% better not well maybe it |
| 1205s | gives more it would be demonstrably |
| 1207s | better than than what is currently and I |
| 1209s | is the emphasis for future stuff coming |
| 1212s | that's future content yes yeah and when |
| 1214s | did that come into play just that so |
| 1215s | this is this is something that is worth |
| 1217s | making clear because I think the mixed |
| 1220s | messages from us must be crazy right now |
| 1222s | it's it's a little bit yeah it must be |
| 1224s | that it so the the decision to go this |
| 1227s | way and all of this came in probably |
| 1229s | about two months ago mm-hmm I would say |
| 1230s | this pivot Metro be slightly less than |
| 1232s | that so first of all this was moving in |
| 1236s | a way what it is is we are looking to |
| 1241s | manage our XP curves properly and we're |
| 1244s | managing how we're accelerating in each |
| 1245s | of those points first of all like Clara |
| 1247s | and farm changes something published |
| 1249s | talk about our own farm changes is even |
| 1252s | beyond that progressive balancing of |
| 1254s | whatever we want to call it that we're |
| 1255s | putting out there even even as current |
| 1257s | it's way beyond that |
| 1259s | yeah if we wanted to go above that we'd |
| 1262s | have to be able to be stepping |
| 1263s | ludicrously higher so we're still not |
| 1266s | going to be afraid to take things down |
| 1268s | if it is not fitting our plans mm-hmm |
| 1270s | but I think that we are going to be more |
| 1273s | generous than we have been over the past |
| 1275s | six months I think okay oh so apologies |
| 1279s | that has come across as mixed messages |
| 1280s | about the emphasis of it is and the |
| 1284s | summary is in essence new content coming |
| 1287s | in will be essentially shifted in that |
| 1290s | sense where there will be pretty good |
| 1293s | will be valuable in its own bracket and |
| 1296s | do you remember this stuff house with |
| 1297s | you masters a lot of this will be the |
| 1299s | stuff that's already in game just |
| 1300s | remastered it's not going to be new |
| 1302s | stuff new stuff comes in molding |
| 1304s | everything if we look at like a |
| 1305s | mid-level boss yeah if we remastered |
| 1309s | let's say KPD and then kbd becomes the |
| 1312s | top loot for that mid-level in five |
| 1313s | years time we might remaster QbD a event |
| 1317s | something said okay okay just to clear |
| 1319s | up okay cool okay I realize that took 35 |
| 1327s | minutes 20 20 20 minutes okay I feel I |
| 1330s | need to bring ash |
| 1331s | it's kind of been sitting on tour to |
| 1333s | your left has been here say any bit of |
| 1337s | poverty slash so this is very irate what |
| 1340s | he's already put on the on the Diaries |
| 1342s | more rambling for in essence we talked |
| 1346s | about on the teams now in Co experienced |
| 1348s | a mobile yet what you do we had you on |
| 1351s | stream two weeks ago with Stu we went |
| 1353s | through the time user experience in |
| 1357s | essence how's that all gone from the |
| 1359s | dates that we've seen sort of in the |
| 1360s | backend it's gone really well a lot of |
| 1363s | people have tried it and it seems to be |
| 1366s | coming along really nicely I think |
| 1368s | there's still a few areas where we can |
| 1371s | kind of make some changes obviously but |
| 1375s | it's actually it appears to be retaining |
| 1378s | a lot more people than just kind of |
| 1379s | dropping them off and letting them go so |
| 1382s | that's a lot not positive we're hoping |
| 1385s | we can kind of stretch it a bit further |
| 1387s | obviously we've stopped with just birth |
| 1389s | up but I don't know Anne Tolley sorry |
| 1394s | it's because they're now the one that |
| 1397s | little landmass section but the the |
| 1401s | original aim was to go into Lumbridge as |
| 1403s | well or redo some of it on lumbridge and |
| 1406s | further that on and slowly sort of |
| 1409s | release the player into their |
| 1412s | exploratory kind of gameplay rather than |
| 1416s | being very sore hand-holding and stuff |
| 1417s | as it is in the very beginning so |
| 1419s | summary about them is because no you |
| 1421s | guys are happy how how it's going you |
| 1423s | guys can I'll crack on correct more |
| 1425s | friends yes I believe you have imagery |
| 1428s | of some sort show us is why I would like |
| 1430s | to hope so if John will give you the |
| 1432s | give you the big thumbs up and you're |
| 1434s | ready here we go right so I'm gonna talk |
| 1438s | about mobile so last week we dropped a |
| 1441s | big UI overhaul for mobile and this is |
| 1446s | the imagery that you will see when you |
| 1449s | first load in on excellent inventory I |
| 1451s | am the book a pirate this is my my test |
| 1456s | circuit |
| 1457s | I think it's like mod Shogun's personal |
| 1460s | account that I've kind of flat |
| 1462s | I probably I'll leave it like a slightly |
| 1464s | more high-level account just to test a |
| 1468s | few bits and pieces of them so annoying |
| 1471s | I don't have any before shots but this |
| 1473s | is kind of the new layout and the style |
| 1474s | that we're kind of going for on mobile |
| 1476s | we're trying to keep it really clean so |
| 1480s | sorry I lunge a bit so yeah it's pretty |
| 1482s | but obviously you have all the |
| 1484s | interfaces up at the moment just to |
| 1485s | clarify they are all about yeah yeah |
| 1487s | yeah so this is kind of what you'll see |
| 1489s | if you first load up and there are ways |
| 1491s | of getting some getting rid of some bits |
| 1492s | and pieces and there is a bit more to |
| 1494s | show but this is the initial kind of |
| 1497s | load up of mobile you'll see you can |
| 1499s | hide the chat for example yeah yeah I've |
| 1502s | got I've got a few pictures John if you |
| 1504s | wanna go to the next one so the next |
| 1507s | image is this is if this is our combat |
| 1510s | layout so essentially all it is is you |
| 1514s | press the sword icon down the left these |
| 1517s | ability bars kind of pop up and then |
| 1520s | you've kind of got quick fire action bar |
| 1523s | here your throat your thumb area to tap |
| 1526s | on those nicely and then down the bottom |
| 1529s | underneath the Globes the bars is your |
| 1532s | essentially a revolution bar it's a |
| 1535s | revolution bar and then and then a |
| 1537s | manual action bar on top yet so the |
| 1539s | revolution bar will just tick along as |
| 1540s | it does normally as you have revolution |
| 1542s | on which is your main main bar as you |
| 1546s | would on desktop and then you can kind |
| 1548s | of just queue in the bits on your thumb |
| 1549s | on your thumbs and the abilities above |
| 1551s | to just sort of queue goes in and get |
| 1554s | this to fire off hasn't went so I saw |
| 1555s | just from free back obviously on the UI |
| 1558s | itself and the one thing obviously is |
| 1559s | quite different is of course the globe's |
| 1561s | as we call them yes one yeah so one |
| 1563s | thing I did see is we label in values |
| 1566s | your prayer and something points but the |
| 1567s | bars don't have a number it's that |
| 1569s | Danny's gonna change I've done that |
| 1572s | change that change was done and I think |
| 1574s | I'm doing it today yesterday my days |
| 1578s | have emerged into kind of like one like |
| 1580s | weekly day thing so I don't know what |
| 1583s | I'm working on but yeah those are |
| 1585s | changing that was actually brought up |
| 1588s | before we went live but we never had an |
| 1590s | opportunity to fix it up until now and |
| 1593s | we and players have given feedback to |
| 1595s | say we work in numbers we don't work in |
| 1598s | bars so those numbers will be coming |
| 1600s | back don't worry about that one so yeah |
| 1604s | that's kind of the combat layer you'll |
| 1605s | see on the right hand side obviously |
| 1606s | I've hidden all of the the child windows |
| 1608s | and stuff that you see to the backpacks |
| 1610s | now hidden and stuff mr. Devine is the |
| 1612s | final button relate to pass or yes okay |
| 1615s | so that's the activity tracker cool so |
| 1618s | that I've don't have anything actually |
| 1620s | as a recommendation or a path actually |
| 1621s | but active so it's saying would you like |
| 1624s | to find some something else for you to |
| 1626s | track so John if you want to just move |
| 1629s | on to the next one let's see what the |
| 1630s | next image is that is very quick so this |
| 1632s | one it is you this is how you change |
| 1636s | your action bars so if you look to the |
| 1640s | left where the number six is on the top |
| 1642s | and the small one if you tap that it |
| 1643s | brings up this and this is the number of |
| 1645s | action bars that you can now switch |
| 1646s | between em you'll notice another 13 as |
| 1650s | of the Monday we gave everyone two extra |
| 1654s | remember how many there are added free I |
| 1657s | can't do it three three three ones yes |
| 1661s | that's for free so that was for everyone |
| 1667s | which was a little added extra bonus you |
| 1670s | can thank my PI for doing that one he he |
| 1672s | wrote all of that back in something all |
| 1674s | about some say can you hide the activity |
| 1676s | tracker yes |
| 1677s | so the the pin with the flag kind of |
| 1681s | things that on the envelope yeah he |
| 1684s | means you can hide severe tracker cool |
| 1687s | if you want to the next one John place |
| 1689s | thank you |
| 1690s | so this is essentially like all of the |
| 1693s | windows open but it's showing my warm in |
| 1695s | this instance now this is a brand new |
| 1698s | layout that we want to go with warn |
| 1700s | players currently have an inventory |
| 1702s | style this is taken off of me working on |
| 1705s | stuff today so this is this is what is |
| 1707s | coming soon so that's gonna a new warn |
| 1710s | interface yes this is how the new |
| 1711s | warnings face will look at the moment |
| 1713s | with people that have their hands on |
| 1715s | mobile it is just an inventory style |
| 1718s | columns and rows but we want to get that |
| 1721s | this look back up for players on mobile |
| 1724s | so they can have everything and to see |
| 1726s | everything is known as the gloves |
| 1727s | just like you're holding your hands up |
| 1733s | so yeah so that's that lookout if you go |
| 1736s | onto the next one so the next one this |
| 1738s | is the will be on spells book yep so |
| 1742s | this shows so we've changed everything |
| 1746s | now obviously on desktop you can pull |
| 1748s | out all of your different spell books |
| 1750s | we've actually converted it into an |
| 1752s | accordion for mobile basics hawk |
| 1755s | accordion is basically an accordion is |
| 1758s | the ability to collapse and expand a big |
| 1760s | group of source sections so for instance |
| 1763s | in this I've got combat abilities and |
| 1765s | combat spells and teleport spells |
| 1767s | collapsed so you can't see them but I do |
| 1770s | have the skilling ones we've been into |
| 1773s | one yeah correct yeah you so obviously |
| 1776s | on desktop you've got if you pulled out |
| 1777s | your spell book |
| 1779s | you would have the three mini tabs on it |
| 1782s | that would sort of show the iconography |
| 1784s | and stuff of what you want to tap |
| 1785s | between we've turned this into obviously |
| 1788s | the accordion as it's there's no obvious |
| 1790s | it expands and collapse like an |
| 1792s | accordion does so that should be easier |
| 1794s | to find there's also filt button on the |
| 1796s | bottom as well which should hide out |
| 1797s | anything that you don't have the level |
| 1800s | for this one it's the next one please |
| 1802s | John so this is the new prayer look |
| 1807s | obviously this changes a lot from |
| 1809s | desktop so desktop is still the same |
| 1812s | just with the filter with the filter on |
| 1814s | at the bottom yet so this is a slight |
| 1816s | reworked all of that it shows the book |
| 1819s | you're on how many points you're on or |
| 1821s | two quick prayers and your filters still |
| 1823s | on there as well on the bottom next one |
| 1826s | John please where are we so this is now |
| 1831s | the ability book oh that's much better |
| 1833s | so this this holds everything rather |
| 1836s | than you having strength and attack |
| 1839s | together ranged on its own magic on its |
| 1841s | own and Constitution and I remember |
| 1845s | prior to this update you had to have |
| 1846s | each button on the ribbon they were you |
| 1848s | then get to them yeah one button to now |
| 1850s | get to everything in one yeah okay yeah |
| 1852s | so for people that I know the ribbon is |
| 1854s | essentially the right-hand side where |
| 1856s | all they are Koenig Rafi is just under |
| 1857s | the big H button on that on that right |
| 1860s | that's what we known as the ribbon |
| 1862s | because it looks different yes proper |
| 1866s | buttons with colored backgrounds and |
| 1868s | things and bits and pieces |
| 1869s | so because the icons have completely |
| 1872s | changed and shifted color and stuff it |
| 1874s | it might throw some people off for when |
| 1876s | we talk about that so yeah this was the |
| 1878s | combination of all your abilities thrown |
| 1882s | together so you can see the model in one |
| 1884s | place was there ever a consideration of |
| 1886s | instead of using text boxes maybe images |
| 1888s | and icons there wasn't but those who |
| 1893s | were not we could probably put all those |
| 1895s | back in to make it easier to see |
| 1896s | obviously it will keep the same them if |
| 1898s | you swap between desktop and mobile to |
| 1900s | so you know what you're looking at |
| 1902s | rather than just a name I know a lot of |
| 1904s | feedback was coming in about like they |
| 1905s | would love to hide certain prayers or |
| 1907s | hide certain abilities they just don't |
| 1909s | use so to come here a bit more is that |
| 1911s | anything like arm or not really because |
| 1915s | how do you determine things you can use |
| 1918s | anymore having the optimal menu you can |
| 1922s | click in it puts it back on your blanks |
| 1923s | I guess you'd have to do like I don't |
| 1924s | want to see anything below this level |
| 1926s | kind of thing you can really do it like |
| 1928s | in that what it Julie yeah you want a |
| 1931s | pure yeah it was a prayer for most |
| 1934s | people to be fair apart from some people |
| 1937s | who want to use lead prayers at CELAC |
| 1938s | with the amulet the zealots anyway yeah |
| 1941s | just some example sitting but you yeah |
| 1945s | obviously that's cross-platform |
| 1947s | we'd have to look in that a big big |
| 1949s | style of bit someone said is there any |
| 1951s | fix of court summons within s when |
| 1953s | you're in an instance the clip box is |
| 1955s | all funky yes that is a known issue |
| 1956s | right now but we want to sort so you can |
| 1959s | actually carry on doing your call cases |
| 1961s | how that would be ideal I saw I saw that |
| 1963s | as a gif it was quite funny someone put |
| 1965s | that room and it was like wait what what |
| 1969s | what note that we clicks like over here |
| 1971s | I'm gonna click here for ya what zone |
| 1973s | yeah the back there used to be four |
| 1975s | options underneath where's your four |
| 1977s | buttons yes they are not there anymore |
| 1978s | one no they so with them being there it |
| 1984s | meant that you had like a scroll bar |
| 1986s | essentially for the inventory we kind of |
| 1989s | wanted to keep away from being like |
| 1992s | scrolling on the inventory |
| 1994s | because it's quite it was quite easy to |
| 1996s | kind of accidentally swipe when you |
| 2000s | meant to click so if we can get rid of |
| 2002s | the scroll bar on it it meant that you |
| 2005s | could actually tap on things properly |
| 2006s | and they would react as you were tapping |
| 2008s | on them rather than you accidentally |
| 2010s | tapping and maybe doing a little swipe |
| 2012s | and it kind of been scrolling and you're |
| 2014s | like no I wanted to eat my shark or eat |
| 2016s | drink my potion you're sliding on a |
| 2019s | scroll bar and it's suddenly now showing |
| 2022s | all the four options on the bottom but |
| 2025s | saying that there has been a lot of |
| 2028s | feedback from players and that's saying |
| 2030s | that they'd liked it there so I think |
| 2033s | we're gonna take another look at it |
| 2034s | don't hold me to it it might not come to |
| 2037s | fruition but we are going to have |
| 2039s | another look at it to see if there is |
| 2040s | anything that we can do to sort of bring |
| 2044s | something back up to the top level |
| 2046s | awesome they said keep going John where |
| 2050s | were we |
| 2051s | we've seen that one place that's right |
| 2054s | oh that's what it's clicked up oh I have |
| 2058s | yes they are very similar because I've |
| 2060s | hidden the compass up in the middle at |
| 2062s | the top yeah that's why they look very |
| 2064s | similar so yeah you'll notice as John |
| 2067s | goes back and forth that the mini-map |
| 2070s | hides so that is the big circular button |
| 2076s | to the right jillee willikers it is |
| 2079s | pretty creepy yeah so if you go to the |
| 2082s | before image after taking but so yeah |
| 2097s | we're the P caches and those sort of |
| 2100s | three icons at the top the H is your |
| 2102s | home teleport now the one in the middle |
| 2104s | will toggle your mini-map so it will |
| 2107s | slide in and out and the top one is your |
| 2110s | world map and if you actually hide the |
| 2113s | child windows the compass that is stuck |
| 2115s | to the left at the top will actually |
| 2117s | shift its way over to the right as well |
| 2120s | so one of those but yeah so yeah that |
| 2124s | was just showing that you can hide hide |
| 2127s | them |
| 2127s | Matt so if you get to the next one |
| 2129s | please John so this is a brand new |
| 2133s | layout for what people know as the |
| 2135s | assistants that thing is changed yeah |
| 2137s | like it's insane and so this people will |
| 2141s | know obviously when you push escape or |
| 2143s | what no you get the small little menu |
| 2145s | that gives you all of the options of |
| 2147s | where you might want to go if you want |
| 2149s | to log out hop world all that sort of |
| 2151s | stuff for mobile that didn't work it's a |
| 2155s | very small interface so we took a big |
| 2159s | reimagining of what is now this |
| 2163s | basically which is now known as the main |
| 2165s | menu two externals and stuff we still |
| 2169s | call it the escape menu internally but |
| 2175s | you access it from if you just go back a |
| 2176s | slide please John make an image so the |
| 2180s | top left there's a great big home button |
| 2182s | if you push that now that brings up the |
| 2185s | menu just like that just like that like |
| 2188s | I clicked it so the buttons far left so |
| 2191s | I presume social is one of them based on |
| 2193s | the like on yeah I'm trying to think |
| 2196s | what they are now treasure hunter |
| 2200s | wardrobe I think it's in store yeah yeah |
| 2205s | and then it must be social yeah those |
| 2206s | are those people pointing out the two of |
| 2208s | those went to the same location so that |
| 2210s | is possibly true we can certainly look |
| 2215s | at it and make any changes as it was but |
| 2218s | so this was a big reimagine like I said |
| 2220s | there's a big reimagining from our UI |
| 2222s | guys of like we'll hang on the the |
| 2224s | current one for desktop just doesn't |
| 2226s | work for what we need it needs to be |
| 2229s | essentially a hub to allow you to access |
| 2231s | everything quite quickly and this was |
| 2234s | what they've come up with it's a good |
| 2235s | question they're just saying how do you |
| 2237s | feel about a new mobile learning each of |
| 2239s | the new icons but then having to relearn |
| 2240s | them when they login onto the desktop |
| 2243s | yes problematic I do agree however we |
| 2249s | are looking at a wider kind of color |
| 2253s | scheme and we're kind of using mobile as |
| 2256s | a as a certain unified unifying it all |
| 2259s | of it all up yeah so |
| 2261s | I don't know if people who brought it up |
| 2263s | but before even in some of the chats |
| 2265s | I've seen it's the ribbon icons they |
| 2268s | don't work very well over kind of like |
| 2272s | the desert for instance it's kind of |
| 2273s | yellow and yellow so are you are guys |
| 2276s | are going back to looking and we change |
| 2278s | those and we're looking to put a lot of |
| 2281s | the color schemes and the layouts of |
| 2284s | sort of some of the windows and stuff to |
| 2286s | desktop so that everything is is |
| 2289s | essentially you can just jump back and |
| 2291s | forth between and you shouldn't have any |
| 2293s | problems but I've seen mobile is it's |
| 2295s | our kind of starting point really just |
| 2298s | to get a gauge of a does it look right B |
| 2301s | does it feel right C are the players |
| 2303s | happy with it so yeah oh man I'll be |
| 2309s | honest these sections we're going on way |
| 2310s | long double that's completely for me I |
| 2312s | think this right John got one more after |
| 2315s | this god I can't run around they're |
| 2316s | giving you four more well are you sure |
| 2322s | at the end yes this was obviously me |
| 2327s | just clicking the adventures and that's |
| 2330s | tab so new UI there right the top lot at |
| 2332s | the top title bar I guess yeah we the |
| 2337s | tabs have had a change in color all the |
| 2340s | color schemes is very very similar |
| 2342s | there's a few things that still need to |
| 2344s | be worked out but this was just kind of |
| 2347s | a sensitive story using our old sort of |
| 2350s | parent layout it's just kind of zoomed |
| 2351s | in to be full screen but it kind of |
| 2354s | shows just kind of sort of the broad |
| 2356s | different things that we were going on |
| 2358s | for it's what's the next one in John the |
| 2360s | stream things rubbing your parents |
| 2366s | people no I guess that's the expanded |
| 2367s | chat yeah so the top left now is |
| 2371s | essentially a maximized |
| 2372s | chat that allows you to talk and see a |
| 2374s | lot more of your chat imagine as you |
| 2377s | clicked on it a keyboard will pop a |
| 2379s | pathway up the screen to sort of allow |
| 2383s | you to sort chat and stuff in but that's |
| 2385s | kind of what that looks like and then |
| 2387s | finally Dave Dave |
| 2394s | she's slow to slow with the fondly I |
| 2400s | like that he's you know you're messaging |
| 2402s | your wife and I hurt your leg at the |
| 2404s | same time she's probably watching our |
| 2406s | course you also hate roses run the cord |
| 2412s | Wow next one John say there's no much |
| 2415s | talk about that one so this is the |
| 2417s | pow'rs interface nothing much again has |
| 2421s | changed it was more just to show the |
| 2424s | kind of color schemes and the fact that |
| 2427s | now there's a lot less tabs along the |
| 2429s | top because we've obviously combined |
| 2431s | with the accordions so you'd get each |
| 2435s | accordions per tab and you'd still be |
| 2438s | able to do what you need to do sort on |
| 2440s | the right-hand side drop it all into |
| 2442s | your relevant ability bars and stuff why |
| 2445s | was quick chat ever to save it on mobile |
| 2449s | it never worked properly so quick chat |
| 2454s | essentially is uh kind of you tap it for |
| 2457s | each kind of one you want obviously its |
| 2459s | keyboard doesn't quite number heavy we |
| 2461s | never got it to truly work when it came |
| 2464s | into mobile so it has been disabled for |
| 2467s | now I believe in the future we are |
| 2471s | looking to redo some of the chat as part |
| 2473s | of our core experience stuff because it |
| 2475s | is a core part of gates as well so we're |
| 2480s | hoping that we can roll quick quick |
| 2482s | responses back into into it when that |
| 2485s | comes around because it is a somites |
| 2487s | feature to have for mobile because |
| 2488s | essentially just tap tap tap tap send |
| 2490s | rather than having to hatch you type our |
| 2492s | message on a mobile which obviously with |
| 2494s | with it being on landscape you get a |
| 2496s | full-blown keyboard on your screen which |
| 2499s | is quite hard to sort of sometimes type |
| 2500s | with is there gonna be possible to drag |
| 2502s | items from the inventory to the action |
| 2504s | bar on mobile do we do that already |
| 2506s | I presume knockers are in the question |
| 2509s | we can't oh so we can't marry can yes we |
| 2512s | can because you can lock you can look at |
| 2515s | the action bar on mobile so if you jump |
| 2518s | back to come prepared I'll remember this |
| 2522s | image put ice in the computer |
| 2524s | I assume the question because the person |
| 2525s | had the image of the bar locked and yeah |
| 2528s | and change it once yes so we've brought |
| 2531s | in a new mini menu this is now driven by |
| 2534s | as in content rather than an engine so |
| 2536s | we have full control over size coloring |
| 2539s | and all that sort of stuff |
| 2541s | so all I've done here is I've |
| 2543s | essentially pressed and held on the COG |
| 2547s | icon under the sort and it's bringing up |
| 2550s | sort of a load of options which allows |
| 2552s | one of them and toggle action bar lock |
| 2554s | is is one of the options there so it was |
| 2556s | a nice little flow you've done there |
| 2557s | surely without even realizing what I'm |
| 2559s | this image was here which should allow |
| 2562s | you to bring that up and I think you can |
| 2564s | drag and drop from like on the on the |
| 2567s | actual desktop and like I've been |
| 2568s | hosting streams from us for years now |
| 2570s | Jimmy was getting closer to the next |
| 2575s | shot to just be jetties face like full |
| 2577s | screen I would have done that a |
| 2585s | one-click gameplay toggle option already |
| 2588s | in your game sense to answer that |
| 2590s | question there you can toggle on one |
| 2592s | game play you have to allows you just to |
| 2594s | click the NPC now you can have the |
| 2596s | options and I think that works on mobile |
| 2597s | just yet oh okay fair enough apologies |
| 2599s | but I know it was trying to be |
| 2603s | implemented but I think it broke a few |
| 2605s | bits of this work out for now but yeah |
| 2608s | that should be coming back as well |
| 2609s | hopefully fingers crossed |
| 2610s | cool any any more imagery I think that's |
| 2614s | a lot more my job trying to remember how |
| 2617s | many I've actually I send more like 13 |
| 2618s | images yeah yes there you know so that's |
| 2622s | that's mobile that's what I've been |
| 2623s | working on for the past changes I |
| 2629s | presume will be mobile news at room |
| 2632s | press is that a yes yeah room fest right |
| 2635s | so yes there's a lot of news at room |
| 2638s | first yes but I ought to make sure we |
| 2640s | have our mile is there as well yeah two |
| 2643s | vs no okay I'm gonna have to split the |
| 2645s | script up a little bit because obviously |
| 2646s | we've well we've gone talking about this |
| 2650s | this stuff which is awesome so a couple |
| 2652s | of notes as we talked about last week |
| 2654s | we've mantra even myself a model school |
| 2657s | and about playroom farm stuff and the |
| 2660s | playroom farm |
| 2661s | changes that we talked about will be |
| 2662s | coming out this Monday upcoming and |
| 2666s | there will be a news put a dev vlog |
| 2667s | tomorrow which will go live summarizing |
| 2669s | everything we talked about last week |
| 2671s | but you have essentially until Monday to |
| 2674s | do all your player and farm stuff before |
| 2675s | all of those changes go in so just a |
| 2677s | heads up for you there but as I |
| 2679s | mentioned there will be a news post |
| 2680s | which will essentially summarize them |
| 2682s | for you tomorrow with that one and then |
| 2685s | of course we kind of have to touch on it |
| 2687s | it's gonna which is weapon diversity |
| 2689s | right do we have to we have to we |
| 2690s | absolutely have to we've already put a |
| 2692s | news post out today we can just run away |
| 2695s | I mean it goes like saying I think if |
| 2698s | you're not aware by the way runescape |
| 2699s | calm and there's not a news post on and |
| 2703s | updates on the weapon diversity project |
| 2704s | in essence diversity is in his current |
| 2709s | design canceled aside a lot of |
| 2712s | proportion of the reasoning for this is |
| 2713s | that what we had been tested and put out |
| 2717s | so far had been not as dramatic is I |
| 2722s | think a lot of guys had hoped |
| 2723s | there wasn't utility benefits to each of |
| 2724s | the individual weapons I think people |
| 2726s | looked at baikal beds and how attack |
| 2728s | Steve squares away we're hoping or |
| 2730s | imagining something akin to that for |
| 2731s | weapons what we delivered was largely |
| 2733s | DPS modifications and that meant that |
| 2735s | actually when you kind of circle |
| 2737s | background to the aims of the project to |
| 2739s | have diversity or again small skills |
| 2741s | most people would probably just |
| 2742s | optimized the weapon that gave the most |
| 2745s | dps in their situation so actually the |
| 2747s | original name of diversity was kind of |
| 2750s | compromised a little bit I do want to |
| 2753s | mention right for those of you who are |
| 2755s | watching the stream and they've not read |
| 2757s | the post please go and read the post |
| 2758s | because it goes into so much information |
| 2760s | on the project itself the roadblocks you |
| 2763s | guys run into with that and I feel like |
| 2765s | for me personally it's pretty awesome to |
| 2768s | get an in-depth look as to I think |
| 2771s | that's come across well in for people |
| 2773s | who've already read it as well I've got |
| 2774s | mixed feelings because I'm on one hand |
| 2776s | I'm I'm glad that we both to make this |
| 2778s | kind of decision like I think it's the |
| 2779s | right decision I like that we're being |
| 2781s | what you know this is the kind of |
| 2782s | transparency I would hope or expect from |
| 2784s | us in terms of communicated to the |
| 2786s | players you so I would like this |
| 2788s | morning's and it's |
| 2789s | in fact could be too bold like the sort |
| 2792s | of right decision we should be making |
| 2793s | one update had this as well like a lot |
| 2796s | of feedback I mean I have the designer |
| 2797s | weapon diversity I feel a little bit |
| 2799s | sore about it but it was it's something |
| 2801s | we had discussed and yeah decided upon |
| 2803s | my mixed emotion but it's the right |
| 2806s | decision and I'm glad we made it and I'm |
| 2808s | glad we are bold enough to go out to |
| 2811s | players and you later look this wasn't |
| 2812s | good enough yeah we have to be a tested |
| 2814s | it you guys have seen it you gives us a |
| 2816s | feedback we've said it's not good enough |
| 2817s | and we decided not to make it and |
| 2819s | instead we're going to go out there and |
| 2821s | and do it do it differently going |
| 2823s | forward right I think the reason I say |
| 2825s | mixed emotion is because there is still |
| 2826s | department that I don't us don't be |
| 2828s | patting ourselves on the back for this |
| 2829s | because there is also yeah yeah the aims |
| 2832s | were incorrect and a lot of the design |
| 2834s | wasn't right for the project I know I |
| 2836s | would have caught that yeah and |
| 2839s | ultimately that's the nup date that you |
| 2840s | guys aren't going yeah there is good |
| 2843s | work but but the thing we can say is at |
| 2846s | the end of the day instead of us going |
| 2847s | it's canceled that's a we've essentially |
| 2849s | taken the time to literary elaborate as |
| 2852s | to the methods we've taken in the |
| 2855s | project itself and then as to why we |
| 2857s | fans made that decision |
| 2858s | yeah yeah which is I guess in a way kind |
| 2860s | of how it was done internally as well |
| 2862s | from that meeting so yeah I mean it's |
| 2865s | it's nice to I guess say that and that |
| 2867s | yeah one thing I want to make clear that |
| 2869s | I think there's been a bit misconception |
| 2871s | one copy of the replies is we aren't |
| 2873s | really nearly putting out updates making |
| 2876s | updates almost finalized to put them out |
| 2878s | on a beat or and then cancelling them |
| 2879s | yeah we do a lot of perpetually work |
| 2882s | that you don't see we actually do a lot |
| 2884s | of player test work survey work internal |
| 2887s | play testing as well like there are |
| 2889s | updates that you you know that is |
| 2891s | designed to make us fail earlier and |
| 2893s | also you don't see that so please don't |
| 2896s | think that we're throwing updates out |
| 2898s | there and allowing ways to work with |
| 2900s | every update we produce it's where I'm |
| 2902s | going to come all right I'm gonna get |
| 2905s | the quiz on going very shortly timber I |
| 2908s | saw a question I'm gonna defer to you on |
| 2910s | this one do we ever see the modified |
| 2913s | numbers being released for the combats |
| 2914s | field pets sure yeah we did it was |
| 2918s | killing pet soon all right I'll speak to |
| 2920s | you tomorrow about whether you can get |
| 2922s | all the information |
| 2922s | Dale |
| 2923s | so tomorrow then shower guys will try to |
| 2926s | here throw it tomorrow how about that |
| 2928s | that was localization we can love you |
| 2930s | know this is means it would just be |
| 2932s | update in the wiki car oh yes of course |
| 2934s | of course |
| 2935s | that's that's the best way to do it my |
| 2936s | opinion |
