    I'm guessing the Orb of Occulus still works, then.

    "Sorry, you're not eligible for the Beta Programme". AKA I either use Safe mode too much or their computer spec monitoring program is telling them my hardware is too low-scale to run RS3 and they're probably right. That's too bad...

    Really?
    You could try to check the BETA forums on the rs website, where only beta accepted members can access and ask questions/get answers.

    Im gonna be upset if I get the same thing when I get home :/

    Good news! The NDA has been removed, although people are apparently "discouraged" from posting images yet, since it's a really early build.

    just saw this as well , Im guessing the guy who got banned was due to the bot client. Sad thing was that he had a partyhat as well.

    Reddit says he's already unbanned, although people are predicting he'll be banned for botting soon.

    Well that was quick if he really did get unbanned.

    But yeah, Im pretty sure a different Jmod would take the bot client thing mroe seriously and re-ban the account\

    I am not massively impressed with he beta. Load times are about 3x longer (and make your entire screen go black), the added draw distance is really quite a small addition, the camera controls feel wonky... And to top it all off, the lighting is really quite ugly and makes everything look like is made of highly reflective plastic.

    I rate it safemodeisbetter/10

    I know it's a really small thing, but the water on the minimap looks absolutely terrible in the first picture. Everything else looks really good though.

    I'm pretty sure they've already said they're going to do that eventually.

    Not my picture, its from reddit again

    The user stated that yes it was FPS 1 because he was uploading the image, screenshotting it, and had other programs running in his background, which may have caused fps to be that low.

    I can confirm that the HTML5 beta has awful framerate all the time.

    My rig can run Crysis at all high w/; AAx16, yet I average 10 fps in RS3. Either RS3 hates AMD videocards, is poorly optimized and such, or a mix of both

    I would not be surprised if it's throwing most of the load on your CPU, rather than GPU.

    I still should not be having trouble running a slightly OC'd i7.

    And my CPU/GPU load never goes above around 40% for both while playing the beta
