don't expect this to be the norm, we always try for mobile version and desktop version to go out at the same time.

We discovered something earlier this morning that we wanted to resolve, because apple and Android builds go through a verification and approval process it is much more difficult to push back such an update by a few hours. whereas is it's easier to do for NXT. Hence the variation in release time.

Also by separating each question into its own comment it makes it more difficult for a casual viewer to read them all. Those at the top will always get seen and this voted, but later asked questions won’t. That’s why I delayed my comment with a list of questions.

Your goal should be to answer as many questions as you can and organize them so teams/people can answer them. If there are more questions than you can ask, hold more Q&As rather than ending a stream 30 minutes early.

It ensures controversial questions will never get asked.

To the contrary I'd say that the questions players are most keen to get answered will be more likely to receive an answer. The top voted questions are often seen as "controversial" in the players eye.

If you say controversial are not being asked because they are down voted, I would rather assume that the person isn't interested in that question being asked and that they would down vote it because they don't think it's worth the time.

On as side note we specifically asks players to only up vote in this thread, which is exactly what is happening afaik.

Those at the top will always get seen and this voted, but later asked questions won’t. That’s why I delayed my comment with a list of questions.

The subreddit mods have been very helpful to avoid this and they put the thread into randomised mode. which they've now disabled so there i...

  • Any chance we can get streams where Jmods discuss various design/balance philosophies around certain topics?
  • Can Lootscape be automated to go out immediately after the dedicated stream ends?

  • When can we expect another data stream?

Hey Rubic could you cut up your questions in seperate comments so that others can vote on a per question basis?

We are working together with critical research and some e-mails have recently gone out, so I think it is legit, however when in doubt just delete it.

ask warden or whoever if it'd be possible to open up a few more members servers temporarily to try and mitigate some of the lag. You guys are only gonna get 1 shot at this and i'd hope you do it right. Good luck!

This is something we're investigating :)

It will run as good as it would on NXT. It is depended on your PC specs not how you decide to access or play the game.

This is great and all, but could you look into why a lot of servers run like trashcans with more than 400 players on them?

Might be more severe for us Aussies, but playing on EU/US servers shouldn't feel better.

We're aware performance can take a hit if there are many players on a server. We've started investigating this a couple of months and working on it in the background.

Increasing the performance is one of the more difficult things to do because it is all about making the existing code do the exact same, but more efficiently.

Hope there won't be aggressive MTX introduced on Steam later on. What I really hope is to see more new players walking around which is refreshing to see when you're playing an 18 year old game.

Hey there, no need to fear about that, it is gonna be a new way to play, just like Mobile will be.

Eh. Dont really know what to think, cant come up with a reason as to why it would be bad, more exposure to the game? more players? sounds great.

Exactly! Glad you're as excited as we are!

I support you, OP, but I’ll still shout out a compromise with Jagex on this one.

If Jagex is afraid Halloween and Christmas events don’t have enough replayability or engagement, then create new permanent content still related to those holidays.

Broken Home and Missing, Presumed Death are two of my favorite Sixth Age quests, and both came instead of Halloween events. Do that again!

I am just gonna reiterate and say that we have spoken about doing more seasonal events for things such as halloween or christmas. So stay tuned for those.

Hey all,

We'll be doing a General Q&A Tuesday the 29th of September at 16:00 Game Time.

So if you have any questions feel free to pop them down in the comments, we'll try and find the right Jmods to answer as many of them as possible.

Last time it worked quite well so I would like to ask if all you of you can put each question down as a separate comment. And if you like a question to be answered, give them an up-vote, this way we should get the best questions at the top!

See you all over on twitch.tv/RuneScape on Tuesday!

A massive congratulations to the creators and artists that got nominated, and an similarly big appreciated for those who didn't get nominated this year. It sounds extremely cliche but the bar has genuinly been extremely high this year and the sheer amount of new and up and coming creators has been insane!

Cast your vote via this link: https://rs.game/GGAFinals

I hope to see you all on Saturday the 7th of November to crown the winner!

There won't be a September Raffle this year, for those who were still wondering if it would.

I think you should think more highly of yourself!
