Runescape Dev Tracker

That was the intention, you're not crazy! Unfortunately the CM team and development have both been really really busy with Necromancy on our doorstep (plus quite a lot of other projects).

We still plan to do it in some form whenever we can fit it in. There's a lot left on the list and a long way to go.

It is, but it's a re-run of last year unfortunately as the timing crossed too much over with Necromancy's final development push.

We felt last year's post gave the best information on it so it's been linked there.

Huh thought I set a table width, cheers for the heads up will look to see what we can do about it.

New max cash limits will soar with today’s update - cha-ching! Plus, we've got hotly-requested fixes galore, straight from the Community Hitlist…

HOTFIX: 12:00 Game Time. We have enabled Free Deaths while we investigate an issue with Death Costs.

Absolutely correct - if the 'scouts' see you and shout human they do a hunt around themselves to find a vyrelord and tell it to attack you. As you mention at 17s, there are no NPCs close enough to hear the shout and therefore no extra vyrelords begin to attack.

Oooh, now you're making life difficult!

So we've done some investigation and it turns out - it's not a bug and it's always been this way.

Are you ready for an adventure?

Having looked at the vyrelords, it turns out they are quite a unique NPC in that they have a field of view of 180 degrees. This means they can only see players that are front of them (from right to left of the way they're facing). That NPC that you noticed that wasn't aggressive was because it was facing away from you; as soon as it turned you can see it then becomes aggressive.

To clarify further that this hasn't changed, we managed to find a video from 5 years ago that shows exactly this: ...

the existing sets will be discontinued (you'll be able to trade them in at the GE for the old ingredients)

August is currently the goal, we will inform players closer to date about any updates.

1. Yes
2. No

See others comments :)

Edit for clarity - 'yes' you can log out and somebody else play from the same device and 'yes' you can play away from home. Most people are using Jagex Accounts with no issues at all, there are some elements of confusion around (such as not realising logins change to the new Jagex Account login) but generally speaking 'no' there are not a lot of problems

Good to go, grab those shards

Nice suggestion, will add it to the list of options!

You're completely wrong, but also somewhat right in what you're saying :D

To explain how it works, imagine a timer that goes off every 3 seconds - when it does, it will try to find one NPC and it will trigger that to aggro the player. That is consistent and nothing ever changes the rate or the behaviour - from start to finish, this remains constant.

However, talking about spawns it differs depending on if an NPC has a spawn anim or not - but let's say it does as the majority of new NPCs do have them. The NPC spawns and on average let's say most spawn anims are 1.8 seconds long. During that spawn phase the aggro potion could target the NPC, spawn anim ends and the NPC will instantly target you. Anim was 1.8s, aggro timer rate is 3s - this means there's a 60% chance that it will appear to instantly target you, and if not it's probably coming in the next second which could also feel almost instantaneous.

Final point as I still see debate going on - I am complet...

As people have said, you are good to set up your Jagex Account. There were some issues for a very short period last week because so many emails were being sent to new Jagex Account holders and some providers, such as Yahoo, delayed or did not deliver those emails (presumably thinking the sudden increase was some sort of spam attack). That was quickly resolved - no issues now :)

I've gone all the way back to release and this number has never changed.
