    Default OldSchool rune is doomed

    The recent poll proved that..

    I'm not that concerned about the recent updates that should be applied today, though left click bank booths is a pretty major change considering the old school feel in my opinion.
    What I'm concerned about is that it will get out of hand really fast, and judging by the suggested topics for the next poll (God wars dungeon, middle mouse button camera etc.) I'm pretty sure OSRS will go to shit unless jagex drastically changes their attitude towards this whole deal.

    Personally I think most people who voted for old school rune didn't vote because they wanted old school rune, they simply wanted to get rid of EoC, most people probably never even played rune prior to 2009.
    What they really should do is stop doing anything to the game other than bug fixes, or better yet revert to older "updates", like the old varrock and monster models...

    I was super excited about OSRS, but I feel angry about the people who voted for OSRS but did it because they simply disliked EoC or people who never played in 2007 and whine about things like "lol do i have to manually click all bones on altar" or something.

    Sorry for ragepost

    I probably won't play anymore if GWD is implemented. AGS ruined pking for me.

    I thought all the polls had to have 75% support to be implemented? I also haven't seen it in the patch notes, so I assume it's just a rumour

    This is actually correct, in Feb. they changed it to grimy herbs... today patch notes said nothing about it. In fact a recent post just talked about the future of it and all votes require a 75% or higher in order to pass, meaning the chance of GWD coming back is very low.

    Why did the nerf mice? Thats how it was then, leave it be, and the bank booth thing is STUPID. Yes, now we don't have to right click but i voted for RUNESCAPE 2007, not for them to later go back and say "oh wait lets just add..."

    Today's updates I didn't mind so much, however I'm not too fond of the middle mouse camera like you stated earlier. Also, the only reason I'd be ok with GWD is if they made the weapons less overpowered. Other than this fact, I very much enjoyed GWD and wouldn't mind seeing it again. Maybe they could release a poll with ideas on changes they could make?

    GWD is cool, but it's not what I voted for, and theres no point of adding it if they add it in "half-assed" It's like if people here wanted reflection and they released and said "oh and by the way we only have the hooks for items"

    I think we are on the precipice of a slippery slope, but I don't think we are there yet. Reading what the J Mods who seem to be in charge of OSRS have to say, I still have a fair amount of confidence that they will ensure nothing too crazy happens.

    Let's keep in mind, the idea was to go back to the 07 version, and go from there. If dev completely stopped on it, it would get boring pretty fast. There are many things we clearly don't want implemented, and they have specifically said those won't be. I don't see god wars as that bad ASSUMING they nerf the rewards. A lot. Something to keep in mind though, with no summoning, no dungeoneering rewards, etc, GW is going to be a LOT harder. Which is great in my opinion, and will help to prevent some of the issues with it too I believe. It will take a very long time before god swords are anywhere close to being as easy to obtain as they are in EOC, or even in EOC 2 years ago.

    THANK YOU!!

    So many people say "Hey this is the 07 version, let it stay that way flame flame flame." No, we're going back to 07 and moving forward, since staying in that snapshot would get boring in a matter of a few days.

    I would suggest adding a nerfed version not adding it and then later nerfing it... And there are a HELL of a lot of reasons that IF GW was to be added, the godswords need to be nerfed. I don't have time to type out all of the reasons, there are a lot of them. Go to the official RS forums and pick any topic about it, someone will have posted them there.

    Why? That defeats the whole purpose of godwars, why would someone want to go there if it is harder and has nerfed rewards?

    Only by comparison to EOC. By comparison to OSRS, it still would be great by comparison. I think they should still be the strongest weapons in the game, just not by the same extent.

    Which side are you on though? Do you want GW in its full glory, or are you against it? I can't tell.

    Either add it or don't. I don't want a modified version of it if they add it

    AGS didnt ruin Pking, Its all about timing the spec and veng , You still need SKILL to get kills with it.

    Polypore/d claws/SOA ruined pking.

    Then EOC ruined it further.

    Then Jagex got nuked.

    Something I could never master - the clicking and switching. All really hard stuff to master.
    I agree though godswords were brutal to pking

    Yeh this ^^^

    Personally I think all major content should remain out, but the silly little GUI or interaction stuff should be changed, like remembering run stance when logging out and back in, thats good haha and has no negative impact, 1 click bank booths is the same, it just makes life a little easier
