Are there any specific plans following the overwhelmingly positive feedback to assign a portion of the budget and/or dev team to a continuous effort to graphically revitalize older existing areas in the same manner mod Blkwitch did with a large chunk of the free to play area?

Are there any plans to extend the log-out timer?

Will the announced Jagex launcher offer additional security features such as more complex passwords or countermeasures against account "reclamations"? Are there plans to implement multiple characters per account similar to how many MMOs do?

Are there any plans at all to offer in-game or more... live customer support similar to that present in World of Warcraft? I often find myself completely lost as to who to contact for account related issues.

Given the recently re-emphasized claim by mod Ramen that old content should eventually become obsolete, are there plans to make that happen with content such as Raids and Vorago which are m...

I will reply a few questions here:

Are there any specific plans following the overwhelmingly positive feedback to assign a portion of the budget and/or dev team to a continuous effort to graphically revitalize older existing areas in the same manner mod Blkwitch did with a large chunk of the free to play area?

Mod Keeper: After seeing the positive feedback, this is definitely something we intend to keep doing.

Mod Stead: While we don't have any plans at this stage to form a new team around this, we do take every opportunity to incrementally update our visuals - mainly within our content releases where there is space to do so.

We are also extending our game jam time, and if the team choose to refresh an area as Mod Blkwitch and Mod Alex did previously, then you can expect to see more of this in the future!

Player Avatar Rework update?

Mod Stead: We're still exploring the possibilities of an avatar refresh, with extra levels of customisation. Please bear with us though as this is a highly complex and challenging project.

The avatar is linked to so many other systems and content, and it has a deep emotional attachment for our players so we need to handle it delicately - and make sure we are 100% confident we are approaching it correctly.

Mod Keeper: Just to confirm, it's still not on the shelf!

Going forward, what are your plans for reducing switchscape?

When will Brazil be getting RS3 servers?

What is the status of the player avatar rework?

Going forward, what are your plans for reducing switchscape?

Mod Jack: This is something I'm personally pretty aggressive about, but I wouldn't want to announce any changes too quickly. I think it's something where we need to work with the community to find the right solution - switchscape is out of hand, but at the same time we don't want to remove the ability for players to reach a high skill ceiling.

When will Brazil be getting RS3 servers?

Right now, we don't have any answer.

What is the status of the player avatar rework?

Mod Keeper: It consists of many, many different parts - but we're currently working on the player animation aspect of it!

Probably won't be willing to answer but....

  1. What type of skill is it? I.E. gathering, combat, etc.
  2. Is it an elite skill?
  3. If not an elite skill, will it closely relate to any other skills? Like how mining and smithing are related.

Mod Keeper: We currently have a plan to give you more information before the end of the year! Stay tuned.

We begin responding to your questions. Duplicate questions will likely go unanswered.

Yes, a question regarding the Legacy of Zamorak storyline was raised there.

That doesn’t really speak to plans for consistency or attempts to lower tensions between players and mods. One q&a doesn’t mean regular, improved, and consistent communication, let alone a willingness to answer questions about contentious topics.

Is it good first step? Possibly. But it’s a first step that we’ve seen numerous times before with varied attempts at follow through.

There must be a place to begin. Give us some time, though. We can talk about communication problems in a different discussion, however I don't want to sidetrack this one.

Do you all as a mod team plan to do a better job communicating with players both here, and on other forums? We constantly see mention being made about lack of communication and poor consistency both on communicating updates and feed back and I’m wondering if there’s any plans to go back to more consistent streaming and/or regular Q&A’s where you all take the time to answer difficult user questions instead of ignoring them in hopes that they’ll go away. Mod_Miva has acknowledged these issues a number of times in the past so I’m wondering how jagex/the Mod team plans to mitigate these issues and lower the temperature between players and the mods.

I believe the upcoming Q&A session is a step in the right direction. What do you think?

So basically the rest of 2022 is looking pretty dead? Also, really unclear when the rest of the Legacy of Zamorak content is slated for.

This year.

Next year also means December 2023 but if Jagex has it listed for next year you should usually expect it for the year after since they’re never on time with anything

It arrives in early 2023.

I guess i should delete my comment but too late.

Yes, I'm not sure what happened. I had not yet left August. :D

That's a great question for the Q&A thread.

I assume that's a question for this thread. :)
