Does Login In consist of making a character and actually loading in to the world? If my account is still on the character creation screen will I be able to create a FSW account?
The popup to select FSW will appear as the very first thing upon logging into the game. If you've already reached character create then you would have bypassed this step.
The option to select FSW will not appear until the game update. Any accounts that have logged into the game before the update will not be able to take part in FSW as they have already entered the standard game at that point.
If you are an OSRS player and have never logged into RS3 on your account before then logging in on that account after the update should allow you to sign up for FSW.
Will the tokens be tradable to ironmen
We're investigating the possibility of this. Ideally yes.
Yes there will also be inverted 120 capes.
In terms of your second point that's exactly how it will work. Buying an inverted skillcape will unlock the ability to purchase the Cape on the fresh start account AND award the player one unlock token to be traded away.
Thanks for replying!
No problem :)
Can you elaborate? Ironmen can be traded bonds. So there is a system to allow players to trade selective items to irons
I believe that system is specific to bonds. Will have to check tomorrow when we investigate it further.
This means I can go onto OSRS, give a bond to my account, and then use it as a members account for fresh start world? Because as far as I'm aware, fresh start was members only (but, if you're saying its a tutorial option, maybe I'm mistaken?)
I've not confirmed the osrs bind transfer myself but I believe that might be an option yes.
The way account signup works is when you first log into an account it will ask you to choose a gamemode before you get into the tutorial. If you are already in the rs3 tutorial or beyond, that account won't be able to be a fresh start account.
but can I maybe transfer the cosmetic rewards to my ironman after the event is over? Let me use the skillcape tokens/halo/pet skins, etc by clicking them onto my iron account to transfer them? pleaseee
This is something we are currently discussing. We would like players to be able to trade the rewards to ironmen however we don't currently have a system in place for this.
The most recent changes to cosmetic override tokens allow them to be obtained by ironmen via the grand exchange. However that solution doesn't work in this situation.
I was wondering if you can use an old account for a fsw world but once you click "join fresh start world" it will reset you back to 0 as if you have just made a new account.
I just dont understand why they are sending out emails about it saying to renew your membership now to not miss out and to click "join fresh start world" when the event is on.
The option to create a fresh start account will only appear the first time you log into rs3. If you have entered the tutorial it is already too late.
If you have an account that you play osrs on that has never played rs3 then you should be able to use that though.
Can you make an ironman for FSW?
No, Iron-man mode is disabled.
So out of curiosity, if the account I'm trading the token to has untrim attack /keepsaked/, it shouldn't need to actually check if the cape is the first cape I got as it's already untrimmed right?
No worries if you don't have the answer though, thanks for taking time as I will probably go for a few of these inverted capes :)
The inverted skillcapes are completely different items. Its not a case of taking the existing item and inverting it.
I understand cheers.
I'm unsure of how the tokens work (obviously, since they're not out) but would it not be possible for the token that unlocks the 99 cape to also allow untrim capes to change as well? Or is it something physically applied to the cape?
I believe its the same system as normal skillcapes in that we don't remember what cape should be untrimmed. Any capes you purchase on the main game will be trimmed assuming you have more than one 99.
If for example you only have 99 attack on both fresh start and your main. It might be possible that you'd be able to purchase the inverted untrimmed cape on your main in that instance. But i've not tested this directly so cant confirm.
Hey Camel, trying to ask before people bombard you, do you know if:
- Inverted skill capes work on untrimmed capes?
- There are individual tokens for each 99 and 120? (So you have to buy a 99 arch cape reskin and also a 120 arch cape reskin)?
So im going to look into the untrimmed stuff tomorrow morning. We have untrimmed versions that can be obtained, however I dont think they will be able to be transfered over to main accounts.
Yes there are tokens for each cape. Upon purchasing a cape in the gamemode you will receive a cape and an unlock token. IF you obtain a 99/120 during the gamemode but dont purchase the capes, I believe upon transition the token will be awarded to you as well as the inverted variable being set on your account to say you can purchase it.
Technical question:
How would activities that put you into different instance worlds work with the fresh servers? Like Cabbage Facepunch, Flashpowder Factory and a few others.
Right now I believe they will place you within a local instance. We wernt able to do this for Flashpowder factory though due to the way it was coded so that minigame will be disabled to prevent players from the different modes being able to interact.
To clarify - all the aura's will just be unlocked through game progression?
If that's the case, that's awesome!
Yup. But when the account transfers to the main game they will all be locked again unless they were directly unlocked through the store/other gameplay routes.
Not looked into this specific scenario. But as part of the gamemode players will be able to unlock all auras. They will only remain for the duration of the gamemode but will mean you have access to them even if you dont have loyalty points saved up.
To me it reads how the elite chest upgrade works. 20% chance to double a rare drop from a boss.
Exactly this. You will still have to roll the rare drops and then roll another roll to see if it will be doubled or not.
Hi, thanks for the feedback.
This has been the first time we have made cosmetic tokens available to ironmen players via grand exchange purchase. We did have discussions about allowing one way trades to this as well however we decided against it for this trial. The purpose of the ironman gamemode is to obtain everything yourself and we felt being able to get the items for free went against this. Bonds being the exception as they provide an out of game benefit.
Thats not to say we haven't been keeping an eye on the feedback from you all. Asking ironmen to spend their gold on cosmetics makes sense for the cheaper tokens. Some of the more desireable cosmetics however are at a much higher costs which is unreasonable to make ironmen players obtain. I will be raising this approach again with the team when we look to make more tokens available to ironmen in the future as something we may want to reconsider.
Mod Camel :)
Love this xD
Thank you so much for replying. This is right, but Premier Club is being sold until March 2022. This means players could lose 4 monthly drops. :'( Is there any possibility that previous months could be automatically given when the player first log in after purchasing the subscription?
From my understanding, If you purchase the package in March 2022 then you would receive the drops from then up to Feb 2023.
