Why couldn't OSRS have been like Runescape Classic? Why did it have to get flooded with redditors and EoC refugees?

The graphics then, and even the improved graphics from '07-'11 are part of what gave RS so much charm.

Now it feels like it's lost its way and has so much junk thrown into the game as content.

HD Runescape when it got fullscreen was absolute P E A K graphics.
Then RS3 happened.

I don't care what anyone says, trading before the GE was a fucking pain in the ass. I get that it made trading an actual activity in itself instead of just the final phase of a farming session, but for the average player just looking to sell some shit here or there it was incredibly annoying and brought out the worst in people.

You know MMOs are trash when a feature removing the human element from something drastically improves gameplay.

Nah. It may not have beem as bad as RS3, but HD began the trend of pretty much every terrible design decision.

Which is better: Runescape 3 or Old school?
What is the major difference?

MMOs aren't trash, just a lot of the people who play them are because they attract absolute mongs.

Okay anons, give me ideas of a weird bot I should program for osrs.

Attached: 1549995532850.gif (496x530, 832K)

A bot that does exclusively the lovakengj sulfur mines.
Because fuck that place.

Runescape 3 has more advanced graphics and more content in pretty much every area

Oldschool is an older version of the game that gets updates different from RS3

It's difficult to explain the differences to someone unfamiliar to the game. I personally prefer OSRS

a bot that sits in at barbarian village and yells at passerbys

The entire population of Venezuela plays Runescape.
Ping based servers should be mandatory in MMOs.

Remember when they changed the noobtown? Me niether cause i stopped playing when they did

f2p? p2p? money making? exp? troll other players?

A bot that posts the negation of every point made by that Illuminati/Pizzagate bot in the west Varrock bank

I guess I could write a bot that tracks/follows people as long as they are in barb village and calls them idiots and then returns to barb village.

Let's say a f2p bot that trains a skill in a very inefficient way and is also self sustaining.

Wait what? Please explain further.

Runescape 3
+ Infinitely more content in every area
+ EoC is actually alright and makes bosses more fun
+ more frequent updates
+ more weapons & armor variety
- Cosmetics out the fucking ass that ruin any immersion
- casualization disguised as QoL "improvements"
- end-game players greatly outnumber new-mid game players so content updates can sometimes be biased

OS
+ closer to RS2
+ Dev team acutely afraid of introducing any "RS3 type" content
Even though you have things like the nightmare zone which was VERY questionable
+ more active PKing scene
- min max autism which means less interactions with people
Do you want to experience "old" runescape? try OSRS
Do you want a more "modern" MMO that has an overwhelming amount of shit to do? Try RS3.

i unironically loved the new quests, i played 2007-2012 and then 2015-2016, quit around river of blood i think
same that everything else sucks ass and jagex only does le epic pvm content for high levels

RS3
>graphics much more modern than osrs, though some would call them "soulless"
>filled with micro-transactions that reward the player with almost anything from cosmetics to money and exp
>somewhat complex combat system that originally was just a copy of WoW, but eventually came into it's own, although the game still lets you play with osrs's combat system
>most new combat focuses heavily on PvE, most players have completely maxed their combat stats and done most in-game content
>incredibly large amount of content, both good and bad and crammed into a relatively small world

OSRS
>extremely dated graphics that most players supplement with third party clients that sacrifice aesthetics for efficiency
>has no microtransactions like RS3 but you can buy gold with real money and the game has many more accounts botting for resources and exp than RS3
>extremely simple combat system that even at it's highest levels comes down to switching equipment and prayers to avoid and deal damage
>focuses more on PvP than RS3 and has a lot more people that haven't maxed out all of their stats playing
>all new content has to be approved by a community vote and so the reddit/streamer/youtube community essentially has control of what updates go live

stopped reading here. if you think weebshit had a place in runescape youve rotted your brain away.

Doesn't osrs have a gangnam style emote?
And like a dance from some shitty Drake song?

Plenty of RS3's cosmetics are shit and ruin the entire aesthetic of the game, hell a lot of the new models do too, but don't pretend like the entire game looks like shit just because some of it does.

RS3 definitely has a lot of pretty areas, especially when you max out in fullscreen. And the production value on their bigger quests is pretty nice.

Grand Exchange was needed. Especially when you paid for membership and every wasted moment was wasted money IRL.

people that just naturally forming regions in Falador and Varrock for different items are part of what made runescape so special.
Also trading/selling was fun, even just buying runes off mage arena and selling them could net you 400K+/hour consistently even considering how many channel surfers you were competing against.

Nice.

Those days will never return, but I'm okay with that. They just need to add improvements to the G.E. experience or more features to help player to player trading. Maybe a player-owned store that you can set up temporarily in public places?

The trade restriction and removal of wilderness were a heavy handed, but if the RuneScape documentary they put out is to be believed they were losing more money from their subscription service than they were making due to so many bot accounts being signed up on stolen credit cards.

is the smithing rework out yet

Pretty sure you can smith Rune at level 90. Might be worthless trash, but we have it.

no u dont understand in rs3 you can make ELDER ruen
What kind of fucking idiot comes up with this shit

We have small 3 man raids now. The final bosses from the first and third one are fucking kino.

Does runescspe have cons? A flash mob of bot cosplayers cutting trees would be funny. Who wants to shave their head with me

In case anyone is interested in a low population remake of Runescape as it was pre October 2007, there's always a thread for it over on /vg/. it's run by a bunch of Yea Forums autists and, although it's still not yet feature complete, it's been live since 2014 and has never included pay-to-win or donator benefit bullshit.

Smithing just lags too much. By the time you’re able to smith some new metal you probably have access to better tier stuff through drops or GE

Placeholders are technically a new item ID and RS3 has way more items. It's a small hangup but it was one of the things holding it back.

Should I just drop the game entirely at this point?

Remember 06/06/06

Yeah, sure just let me get all my stats to 90 real quick and I'll do it. It takes a lot to meet the requisites for literally any money making method better than blast furnace, and it wouldn't matter if I had more time to actually dedicate myself to one. Every skill takes too much time and time is too little for membs, and I'd love to dedicate said time to it but it basically means I'd never be able to sustain my bond in the 2 short weeks I have. Like I'm looking through the stuff I'd need for barrows and it means gaining 30+ levels on 8 different skills in less than 2 weeks now AND start doing barrows. Is that even feasible?

If you can wear full rune and have an iban staff/trident and a yew shortbow, you can do barrows.

>RS3 graphics

>30+ levels on 8 different skills in less than 2 weeks AND start doing barrows. Is that even feasible?
Yes, develop autism/trade your apparent ADHD for it. Learn to afk train/not focus as much on the game so you retain what sanity you have left. Work towards Varrock diary and MTK requirements while you're at it. You need to make 300k/day to maintain a bond assuming you're playing for every one of those 14 days, which is very doable even with 1 in everything and enough time on your hands.

If you're really anal about it, keep duplicates of essential F2P items banked once your bond expires so you can fuck around getting skills up there instead of wasting time in members, then keep up a daily regime of alching profitably to slowly build up capital until you think you've got enough GP and magic levels to dip back into members.

What are your stats, anyways? You're probably able to bumble through barrows right now.

>missing out on making bigger easier money with higher not-FM stats

Don't join this garbage
Mods are fags

Imagine making an old version of a game just so you could kill it again

how can you even have 1 stats? just do Tears

don't even bother unless you want to play long term, i botted runescape, and even with a bot and paid membership, with the bare minimum the maximum you can make is about 500k a day. If you want more money you have to pretty much max out your skills , finish all quests, and have the insane amount of money to buy equipment.

>trying Barrows with 40s in almost all combat skills

Unless OSRS has hilariously fucked the balance, you're not doing it.

Tbh dude you bonded too early, should've stuck with f2p for awhile.

it's never too early to bond just because of how good some of the members training options are.

youtube.com/watch?v=rk5XuqLrf3U&list=PLWiMc19-qaA3u1ZawZQIKAh0BknPvoK8a

There's no such thing as bonding too early, making an average of 300k a day is not hard.

told you
I've been playing f2p since it came out on android, used my free trial to get the coal bag and somehow earn enough money for a bond through blast furnace, got the bond, wasted my membs for some quests and played f2p again for a couple of days, then dropped. Everybody told me that in membs everything is easier and even with low stats you can keep your bond running, am I fucked? Should I just make enough gp for a bond, buy it and stick to f2p for a while until I have high enough stats?

I regret not being able to play dungeoneering very much when it first came out. I only got near level 20 throughout the first summer it was released because my mom made me do her gardening with her

DG was fun as fuck when it was new, i remember spending an hour on large dungeons with 4 of my friends, having barely any idea what to do, taking our time to prep for the boss. good times. I still love it even if it's just a dungeon speedrun now, only skill I ever have or will have 120 in

go level up your combat stats at the ammonite crabs on fossil island

No,
literally everything got fucked up and was heading for devastation until you helped

lol autism

>The developers made it so everyone progresses on a predetermined path so nothing gets exploited
what did you possibly mean by this. you can do whatever the fuck you want from day 1 of playing

Hit the SoS in f2p and get everything up to at least 50, shouldn't take long at all, you can do gilded altar runs in mems to get your prayer up to 43, should cost about 130k and take about an hour.

At those levels the extra efficiency isn't worth it.

Finally reach Jad, my palms sweating so much, and I can fucking hear my own heart beating so loud I can barely hear the ingame audio. I fucked up the prayer switches immediately and died after an hour wasted in the caves and 150k in supplies. Rinse and repeat 4 times.

Is there a way to practice the actual Jad fight? I found the jad simulator that lets me do the prayer switches, but when the healers spawn and shit hits the fan I start panicking and misclicking like crazy.
