I knew we’d get Sailing before OSRS!

Although it would seem they did get a beekeeper outfit before us…

Where Duck Quest?

Edit: Duck Quest is also coming the same day, my mistake.

Duck Quest is also on the 14th, its spring themed but not tied completely to Easter and will be available all year round so there is a level of separation we are doing with the communications.

I completed the Elite Seer's Tasks before the Hards and now the cosmetic override of the headband 3 cannot be unlocked.

You mention bugs specifically but what about quality of life changes that used to frequent the patch notes? Personally that is what I most look forward to week to week

Those are part of the Mod Yuey's work on the Player Panel stuff as well! Any suggestions for QoL internally or from the community are captured, and those also get assessed in the same way.

it's weird to see so little on the patch notes when there's so much patch work to be done in the game.
big old nothing burger this week on the patches again.

We're working on this at the studio at the moment and it's an area we want to improve this year. Completely valid criticism.

Felt like I should drop in with a bit of context on what's up with this, and what we're doing about it given there's actual work happening on this at the studio!

So, a lot of last year was shaping our development effort to be more consistent on delivery of core content and involve players more where possible. We're in much better shape on that front, but we are still learning and improving how we go about it.

The casualty of that focus was a drop in our Patch Note output. Mod Yuey has been great at representing feedback on this within the community to the team and the team are responding. There's a bunch of stuff going on, but a couple of the key changes already have been:

- Fix It Fridays now happen once a month, which focus the entire development team on bug squashing for an entire day (on top of time for bug fixing as part o...

Attempt to equip keepsaked santa outfit top and legs.

3. Do you have any additional information that would be useful?

FYI, some items that were used as equip models during certain animations also got mistakenly deleted with this update (I guess they had login checks mistakenly given to them, despite never being actually obtainable). As a result, those animations no longer play correctly.

At a quick glance (in no way meant to be comprehensive), this includes the Christmas 2005 Marionette handles, and the honey you feed to Baby Sarah during the Meeting History quest.

Should uh, probably double check that any of the other deleted items weren't used by anything. Since I doubt these (plus the dinosaurs) were the only ones mistakenly affected.

Since they got totally deleted yesterday, I am also once again requesting that the ...

I would imagine there is a few oddities in the list like the baby dinos that had login checks associated that we are gonna be chasing up as they arise, if you have a list of things you noticed aren't working as expected do feel free to send them over to me to pass along.

If that issue arrived since this week update potentially but if that had been around prior it would likely require some further investigation.

This is understandable, even if I dislike losing some of my items. But changes like these should be announced before it goes live so players can prepare, maybe take screenshots of their collections. Very sad.

This has been a takeaway action point from this situation for us in the CM team, originally the team who were working on the login flow stuff had been showcasing it on a technical level and we in the CM team missed the minute to minute impact of these changes as we should have realized what this would have meant to players and given a heads up on what was going to happen.

We plan on syncing with teams more directly on things like this that may have unexpected side effects.

Howdy Scapers,

With a few changes - both intended and unintended - popping up in Monday's release, we wanted to check in and provide more information on what's going on.

Tomorrow morning at 08:45 UTC there will be a short server reset to resolve both the Wandering NPC issue and the Green Skirt Item issue. Check it out here - https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/post-update-check-in-wandering-npcs-green-skirts--item-removals

The NPCs spawning in weird places is unfortunately not an Aprils fools joke (it would have been great if it was planned) , team is investigating how best to resolve it and for the time being we have left the warning up on the launcher.

Will this game feature ongoing content updates like a live service game, or will there be a definitive endpoint where development ceases in order to work on a standalone sequel?

We've got a plan to keep expanding and developing the game to deepen the experience for players, but we also know that it's a stand-alone game and we want to deliver a cohesive experience. It'll eventually reach a point where it's "complete" but that's a loooooong way out. We've got a lot of content to get into this game before then, and a lot of that is subject to player feedback!

This list has been passed along to the team but no ETA on if or when this may be applied.
