Other than the Ironman conversion question which was incorrectly worded and has now been fixed (we are categorically NOT exploring the option of converting standard accounts to Ironmen), all of these questions are hypotheticals.

What we're attempting to do is understand how players wish they could use Bonds in ways they currently can't, especially given they are the gameplay-earnable path to premium content by design.

There's some examples in there to get people thinking but we expect most suggestions will come through the open entries. None of these pre-filled entries are direct proposals of things we're working on right now.

Definitely something we could look at!

We've talked to the Research Team and confirmed the 'to' wording in the Bonds section about Ironman accounts was a mistake.

This has been updated in the survey - standard accounts being converted to Ironmen is not something being at all considered by the team.

So this one is on me due to a bit of a crossed wires situation when we were putting together the Development Update - apologies for the confusion. We've updated that Development Update post to be more reflective of where we've landed.

We are going to launch the Beta with the original proposed changes just to verify how people feel when they are put into practice.

If the feedback is similar, we do have some potential next changes ideated out - but for the early phase of the Beta, the team want to get you hands on as is to see if the feedback matches. This also gives the team the opportunity to react to hands-on feedback in case it's slightly different from the on paper responses for the initial tweaks.

The Beta will continue to run to enable us to make changes based on playtesting and get further feedback - things will evolve with feedback as needed.

I can speak to this a little.

We've done these three times since Legacy of Zamorak and we do want them to be a little more frequent than they have been. I think our goal is ultimately to get to around the every-three-months mark for these - and maybe even do a BTS style video format that often as well beyond that.

As with a lot of the communication stuff, we're taking improvements one step at a time - so we'll keep improving and hopefully end up at that cadence in the future. :)

All those details will be on the TWIR on Tuesday (bank holiday on Monday here in the UK).

You'll access it through a link and copy your save file over essentially.

Definitely tomorrow.

Potentially. We do these more as Development Updates - sometimes they are possible to do almost quarterly, but not always.

There's a desire to get to a place where we can do them in a more consistent fashion, but we're not quite there yet. Our push to be more 'Season' oriented should help with future ones though.

We're working on a Roadmap right now (targeting release near the end of the month) that will hopefully answer that question for you - including when you'll first hear about Necromancy!

FSOA: Not shelved, still ongoing. We don't have a target release as we've backed off on releasing them early this month based on feedback - we're currently looking at options with Beta servers to test other proposed changes before a final release.

If that's not possible for FSOA this time around, we'll likely have a follow up with our proposed revised changes based on feedback.

Max Cash: As Tkf530 mentioned, that's in the works for release in the next month or so.

We only just added it in fairness to the OP.

We just dropped it in there cause why not. Check it out in the post!

This is now added!

As a note, this won't actually be all worlds - we just received updated information that it's UK Worlds based in London. We'll be adding a World List to this post shortly.

Yeah unfortunately that change got missed in there - we've alerted everyone to make sure we catch it in any future posts and such!

It is the 11th.

Yeah it means you'll need at least a Tier 1 Fort to get involved in the new content. The fun of having to be super brief on Twitter!

Mod Doom is going to be working on that stream update we've been promising with our Art Team - both to go into detail on why that happened, and also the work that's come out of it.

It's still some weeks away as Doom is still in his early days here, but it's on his hitlist!

Believe me, we all want to talk about it as much as you want to hear about it!

Development wise, it's just that little bit too early to discuss anything as there's still so much work and playtesting going on.

We're going to look at getting a Fort Forinthry Roadmap out in April so you have a better idea of what's coming over the next few months - as we hear you all on sorely wanting that - as we build to the right moment where we can finally talk about Necromancy.

We know there's a lot of concern about when you'll hear about Necromancy (insert 2024 memes here), so just to reiterate something and add a little bit to what's been said before:

• Necromancy right now is firmly a 2023 release as we announced. There's always a potential for change, but it's something we're very much confident in right now.
• Our current plans are to talk about Necromancy in the first half of this year. Sorry to have to drop another caveat here, but this is subject...

There are more graphical updates on the way - some smaller areas next week, and bigger ones (like Karamja) are in the pipeline!
