We've got a lot on the way for the rest of the year, so we wanted to give you a look at what's next!

There always seems to be something wrong with the TWIR posts - can we please try to proofread and get everything sorted before they are posted

Hi Apple, I'd be happy to investigate those for you, can you provide me with some examples?

Appreciate the reply but this wasn’t exactly clear on the news post?

I'll be sure to update that with the info for you!

Hey there Doom! I was just wondering about the bond bonus membership! When I try to redeem some bonds in the marketplace it doesn't add in the bonus, am I doing it wrong?

Should be live today at 11:30 Game Time!

EDIT - 17:35 Game Time 7/11/23:
We have been made aware that a section of the DXP Bundle info was missed from the TWIR article. We've now added these to the lists, but for visibility:

Both bundles contain bonus DXP tokens. The Item Bundle contains 5000 DXP tokens, and the Daily Bundle contains 1000 DXP tokens available per day throughout the event.

Valid point, but I also want to ensure that we don't only allow votes to a small selection of the Ironman community - for example, saying "Only Max Cape Ironmen can vote on this" or "Only 5 year veterans or higher can vote on this" would leave out a huge proportion of players who have spent lots of time in the game and have valid experiences and opinions that should be heard.

Are you able to set a requirement of in-game time play? That would be a good indication of someone that’s actually put time into the mode and cares about the future updates, rather than someone who made an account X months ago and doesn’t play the mode.

Depends how exact you wanna be but a good start might be 24 hours in-game time (and a member).

Very valid point, thanks for the insight on this one!

The F2P map issue is a general one. F2P don't have map labels, quest start points, among other things on their world map. It's been going on for months.

D'oh, that's not ideal - I'll have a look-see if we've got it on the radar!

u/jagexdoom has the team looked into the disappearing yew tree at fort forinthry? It randomly goes invisible when you use the side door to the fort and only a relog will fix it.

It's been reported already.

Hmmm, I've not seen it. (pardon the pun) I'll go digging just in case! Thanks for the flag, Kommando!

That's all we're asking for. And a minimum of let's say 500 totall so there's the least possible amount of rigging possible.

Polls should be fair, otherwise there's no use for them.

500 total level, Minimum account age of 30 days, Ironman Member - does that sound like a suitable criteria? I'm eager to find the sweet spot so that when we can do an in-game poll, we know what kind of thing we're aiming for.

I appreciate the response doom, but just to let you know how easily the website poll can be swayed, you can vote again in incognito mode and on your phone. Everyone in my clan is worried about the poll deciding something important about the events going forward.

Really do hope you can polls set up in the game sooner rather than later so we can have a have more accurate picture of the community.

Oh, of course, I appreciate the concern, and I'm very cognizant of that. It is not a decisive poll, but it's something we just wanted to do as an additional data source!

/u/jagexdoom Can we please make this an in game vote only accessable to iron accounts?

Well this is an opinion poll so it's a just an indicator of where opinions fall on this topic. I want to do more of these website polls, as I've resurrected the functionality on the site! (We also polled the latest graphical rework on there, too!)

I've asked the team about organising an Ironman-only, in-game poll that more broadly asks about the "Ironman experience" so I'd like to get that moving before the end of the year so we're able to head into the new year with a clearer distinction of where Ironman players draw the line.

It, reportedly, takes a bit of time to set up in-game polls, which is a pain because if I could set them up myself, I absolutely would!

Any chance you could get this bug on the Devs. Impossible to complete the quest at this time.

EDIT: A hotfix went out for this at 11:45 Game Time today!
Happy to confirm it's already on the team's radar and they're investigating!

It was fixed for a few weeks until another update changed it back to how it was.

I like the malfunctioning water wheel though, it's so iconic

Yup, spot on Chromeboy - I'll miss it when it's gone, but it was necessary for the team to investigate the issues that players encountered.

It looks like we've got a fix for the clock desync awaiting QA and then it should be going into the game once the team have checked it over.

-Lodestone icons on map STILL not there even though I reported this over a month ago.

-Wilderness flash events showing up on f2p map, nothing in the actual location.

-GE website prices completely f**ked up and left that way making it seem like price manipulation by Jagex

-Waterwheel "fixed" when absolutely nothing was fixed

-Server time STILL f**ked up after almost a month now.

They are not maintaining this game on a basic level. Boggles the mind how this level of slacking is acceptable to anybody in charge working there.

Their neglect is actively letting the game deteriorate.

- This one is an engine update which is on the list of fixes to be investigated with the next engine update (more on that later)

- This is the first I've heard about flash events on the F2P map, I'd need to flag this one up.

- GE Prices are something I'd like us to just generally fix across the board, with quicker updating prices in-game, as well as a timer for your buy limit appearing in the interface. Something to push for, at the very least.

- Lumby Waterwheel was fixed, but the engine update that fixed it caused resolution issues which meant we rolled that fix back. We had to make a difficult choice, but we chose to settle on the funky wheel for a little longer. Gonna miss it when it's gone.

- It looks like we've got a fix for the clock desync awaiting QA and then it should be going into the game once the team have checked it over.

Hope you have a better day, Storm.

What is the rule on giving npcs existing player cosmetic overrides?

For exampe:

  • Legends Guild Guards get the Super September Super Hero Outfit

  • Ardougne Heros get the Supe Super Hero version

  • all male and female thieves get the shadow hunter outfit

  • warrior women get the female version of Titan Veteran outfit

  • paladins get the shiny version of the Titan outfit

If they fit, I'm not against it. Would love to see NPCs bopping about in the Reforged Rune Armour. One of our excellently talented JMods (possibly even the dashing Mod Stu) was experimenting with getting Turael in the Undead Slayer outfit from the Hero Pass, if memory serves. Unsure on that one though, but these are lovely suggestions, thank you!
