JagexDoom

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!

It's true, it's so true.

Just checking you got in ok - I immediately recognised your name!

Your friend will have received an email yesterday if their invites weren't used before the previous 23rd December deadline. We reopened invitations until 13th January, so please check with them!

Leaving a team is definitely different from a person being "siphoned away". I actively chose to join this project when there was the chance to. I wanted to help shape this game from day 0 into something really cool, and use my experiences I'd gained from my time at Jagex to contribute to this project. I wasn't siphoned away, and the RuneScape team found a wonderful CM to take my place. Everyone on this project is here by choice.

The issues that the RS3 team work on and address are wholly disconnected and separate from the work that the Survival game team is doing. We're separate projects! Hope the issues you're encountering get resolved soon, all the same. Have a great day.

An example copy of the NDA will be reshared in the Alpha tester Discord if folks want to pick up a copy for reference! The Discord server is role-specific and won't open until tomorrow's Alpha starts, though.

Entirely different teams, nobody was "siphoned away" - nobody has been rerouted from Old School or RuneScape projects, the teams are exactly as they have always been!

No problem, we'll be contacting friend invites over the coming days, so stay tuned!

No need to reapply, we still have your data! Thank you!

No problem! If you signed up, we'll be sending keys to folks who registered using the invite links tomorrow!

You can try reapplying if you want, and we would prune a duplicate application if we needed to - if you haven't heard from us, it's not a "no", but just a "You've not been chosen yet!"

I think there's a healthy amount of cynicism to be had, but I also think that we're doing things right, and staying the course on this one. We've got an Alpha test schedule planned out to help us hit milestones and do our due diligence with this. No rushing, no deadlines, no emphasis on getting this out the door to hit a target.

We only get one chance at a first impression! If we do this right, we can make something truly special. I'm really excited to be part of this journey and everything I've seen so far only makes me more excited.

Existing applications are still valid, no need to reapply!

You only need to sign up once. If the random selection hasn't chosen you yet, don't be discouraged, as we're still rolling out alpha tests and updates as we go, so there's a chance you'll get to try it, get hands-on and give us feedback soon!

Yup, that's normal! We'll email with news if you're selected, but won't spam you with an email if you haven't been chosen at that point yet!

Hi everyone, Mod Doom here!

I'm the Senior Community Manager on Jagex's new Survival Crafting game in Unreal Engine 5, set in the RuneScape Universe. We've been running closed Alpha tests for the past two months, and we're excited to be running another Alpha test over the coming few weeks. We'd love to hear from you if you've not signed up before, as we're looking to invite more users to join us - and bring some friends, too!

• We've been randomly selecting users to Alpha tests for the project - if you've been invited to an Alpha test before, you are automatically invited to this one!
  • Emails are being sent from the m.runescape.com domain and will include the usual details at the bottom including our address and the address of our email service provider.
    
• If you're selected to participate, you'll get two invite links to share with friends. They'll sign up, sign an NDA...

Hi there - you can drop me a DM on Discord. I can be found in the RuneScape and Old School RuneScape Discord servers, and my username is: jagexdoom

Thanks!

The Discord link didn't work?! Oh man, I worked hard on these emails! :(

I'm delighted to confirm that this is a legitimate email, and we'll be continuing to contact users from this email domain so look out for more emails from us! Remember, if you've received an email from us, that means we've accepted your signed NDA, so you're going to be required to adhere to the NDA from here on out!

We're excited to welcome you into the Discord next week when it opens and we'll get you testing soon. Thanks for checking!

It's probably because it's a new "sender" from the same Jagex domain, which some email filters are sensitive to. (Gmail flagged an initial wave of alpha invites as "Promotions" which wasn't very nice)
