Let's get real - part 2 - RS5 or RS4?

[Slavik]

Yes, lets ban everyone who has issues with RS5. That will improve the server for sure!

No one said that they would be banned.

Actually it might. Then moaners would stop scaring away players who haven't tried it out yet, and we might actually get more people in-game then...

I'm not talking about people who have issues with RS5. Hell, even I have issues with RS5.

I'm talking about people who have an issue with posting criticism that is actually constructive and does not cross the line between decency and shitting like a 3 year-old with a crayon.

And then I add, would it take another 4 years to get everything fixed?

[Zlatan]

Drag your f**king ass ingame then if you love the server so much.

Instead of being here,why don't you go IG and do simple RP,talk with someone,hit a tree and call 911. There is nothing with the script that don't allow you to come online and have fun. Businessmen...

If there are features that the majority of players want and they aren't already included then it would be my belief that the development team would take these into consideration and implement them as soon as possible. I do remember that the status of the team when I left was to prioritize fixing bugs rather than implementing new features however, but that could always change. Increasing the personality would require people to accept the fact that RS5 is here and to help make it become the gamemode that they want.

It was never sure how the economy would work whilst starting out, and the fact that the gamemode wasn't complete upon release made the economy even more difficult. To make the economy stable I do believe some form of stimulus would be required for the flow of money to actually begin.

The current player base is a clear problem for the economy as it's designed to work without any manual intervention. However, there is no reason as to why features can't be added to RS5 (albeit I'm unsure as to which features from RS4 didn't make it to RS5, maybe someone could list the important ones presuming there already isn't one) and if people then started to play I'd imagine the economy would fix itself, if not it could always be intervened.

Thanks for your response Jones.

Fundamentally, there was a lapse in traceability between requirements/ideas and how those would be turned into functional solutions. To a degree, it could be argued that if the foundations are unstable, what good would it bring building on top of those as the higher you go, the less stable the foundations become. Personally, I believe that improving the game mode however proposed is redundant considering many of the factors I’ve mentioned. Added to that, despite the developers being great at what they did with RS5 – they are visibly demoralised and rightfully so.

I agree, economic stimulus is required but looking at the current player base it would not circulate wide enough to spur on long term growth. Let us also remember that the RS5 economy is very premature and underdeveloped - and it might take a number of years to gain credible momentum. In contrast, the RS4 economy was built over years, through incremental stages and while inflation was argued to be too high by the owner – we could resolve this issue by reducing players cash in hand and bank reserve by 25% across the community.

Ultimately, like I said to SugarD – the community is the ultimate voice and in the current standing of the poll, it’s clear that we have an absolute majority in favour of returning to RS4.

Those forum arguements are more funny than RP in game.
