Look for more details on this in the Thursday blog too!
I was expecting something like the old Behind the Scenes videos. Sad.
We'll have a Developer Diary on Tuesday that's very much in the spirit of that - a blend of gameplay and insight into the content itself.
The Nodon Front opens on July 26th!
We've got plenty of details to share next week ahead of the launch, including a Developer Diary where we'll drop gameplay footage and more on July 20th. Find out everything that's on the horizon here: https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/elder-god-wars-dungeon-the-nodon-front
The Nodon Front Opens July 26th!
We're sure you're really excited to know more so to keep things simple, we wanted to let you know where - and when - you can expect the info drops over the next week as we close in on launch!

What scares me is the fact that they're not answering whether there is a boss in the front or not.
I'll be so disappointed if GWD has fronts where no bosses exist. Just.. random mobs to do slayer and catapults to fix.
Without giving too much away, while we're going for a more varied experience across the fronts that make up the Dungeon, a core part of what makes a God Wars Dungeon is mobs and Generals. That's still going to be the case here.
Man why is it so vague about what egwd gameplay actually is? There is a boss, right? Slayer for kc, construction for rep? Something like that?
That info is coming closer to release for sure.
We just wanted to get some info out for players to know what some of the requirements are looking like so they have time to train - less a tease, more providing notice of what you might want / need to have going into this.
After reading this, it sounds like a wave type format like battle of the monalith. No mention of the boss? Got me worried. Also makes no sense why you have not added the newest quest as a requirement. Don't you need to complete it to get access to the city?
It's very much not a wave based thing, just to confirm.
P.S - Keep an eye on our RuneScape Social channels at ~3pm Game Time for a small teaser of what might be coming in next week's reveal.
Read moreHere is a screenshot (from a previous thread 2 months ago, more broken since then) showing how the top 25 in the hardcore hiscore compare to their ironman hiscore (Screenshot names but first letter is censored to avoid players getting pms since it seemed like a system issue, I think I can get an uncensored if needed).
There is no reason to be lower runescore on ironman than hardcore ironman, at least not by more than 20-ish points. Please do note they can have accumulated far MORE runescore as a normal ironman than whats possible by the time of their hardcore death, as the player that died as hardcore with 69 total levels shows in the screenshot. Even 2k runescore is unlikely or impossible by that total level.
Here is a previous thread I made, some comments have interesting ...
Thanks for the great detail! I'll pass this to the team and hopefully we can get this sorted. Really appreciate the effort.
Right now the entire hardcore ironman achievement hiscore is broken, being so bad that the entire frontpage is wrong and only one of the top 100 is even correct.
Is there any intent to fix this or acknowledging the issue?
Our Web and Design Team are really eager to look into this. Could you provide us any more information / specifics just to make sure the team have all the context to what is incorrect and how?
Any update from Mod MIC on the prospect of past promotional items coming back to Marketplace oddment store?
What's the reasoning behind releasing Elder GWD in four parts?
Will "Behind the Scenes" articles ever come back, or do you intend to keep us in the dark regarding upcoming updates?
Is the concept of "hero items" dead, or will we see more of them?
What happened to Dagannoth Kings boss pet graphical rework?
Will we see more quests this year after the release of Elder GWD? Is the current storyline going to continue?
Any chance for a data livestream in the future?
I can answer a few of these that we didn't get to touch on in the Livestream!
When is the log in lockout postmortem information coming out?
We're still very much planning to do this, but with Mobile and the big stuff coming up beginning this month, it's been de-prioritized a little.
It will probably be a few months yet, but it's a story we want to tell somehow.
Hey everyone. Just an update on tonight's stream - we've had to make a call to flip tonight's stream to tomorrow and move the JvM stream to today to make sure we can get the guests we feel can answer your questions best. Schedule surprises reared their head again.
We have a ton of information already pulled together for your questions, so we'll make sure tomorrow is worth it. Sorry for another disrupted stream schedule, but please do keep the questions coming - we'll fire through as many as we possibly can tomorrow!
Thank you for all these questions and for setting this up last night /u/5-x! We've captured everything so far and we'll grab more around 4pm to bring to the team.
Currently we have Mod Osborne and Mod Pi joining us (lots of combat questions to cover!). We'll hopefully get a third guest based on the remaining question topics too.
Just dropping by with some additional news this morning - we've restored World 97 back into existence! To all of you who missed your home world, thanks for the patience you've shown while we got this sorted.
