Sailing is like a hobby, it's not like cooking a fish  Dunno, we'll see. --------------------    | ||

 IRC Nickname: Abs Group: Emeritus Posts: 2071 Member No.: 4 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 97 | Sailing? Well..On the surface is sounds incredibly plain, I think they'll obviously spice it up a little. Why don't they just make it simple like other MMO's & let us swim through water, or at least walk through shallow water ffs@ Oh thaaaat's right, it's because of the level 1, level 2 thing with Java -.- Anyway, yeah doesn't sound too bad, sailing the seven seas 'n all. There has to be a better purpose than just..transport. Arr? --------------------  "I may not agree with what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it."

Sailing for Jagex is like that ugly second cousin at the family reunion. Nobody has a clue where he came from but he always inevitably shows up just at the right time to ruin all the group pictures.  -------------------- | ||

 IRC Nickname: [JC] Group: Emeritus Posts: 3320 Member No.: 23 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 147 | I find it halarious that everyone is like "sailing is crap" and so on... Have you ever thought that jagex has a whole team of people working on new content and they are probably much better qualified than us at thinking up new Idea's for skills, quests etc. Before we knew about summoning would you really have thought that they could make something that works so well with the rest of the game? would you have ever predicted a new cmb skill? so perhaps with sailing (or w/e the new skill might be) jagex will do something equally as unexpected? --------------------  Old awards wat Most Mature & Most Honourable Most Dedicated|IRC Freak|Best Emeritus Placeholder lolz | ||

Being able to sail around the huge amounts of ocean in runescape... find new islands with new monsters... I love the idea =D And you don't have to train it if you don't want to, all ye complainers. -------------------- | ||

 IRC Nickname: Jesseh Group: Guest Posts: 2670 Member No.: 297 Joined: March 8, 2008 Total Events Attended: 222 | I personally think it would be quite fun, sailing to the unknowns and unlocking new things. They released hints about summoning, and most people ahd a good idea that was coming. This is a good idea about Sailing coming, so i have to say that this isn't just made up. --------------------   17/6/08--> 12/9/08--> 29/11/08--> 5/1/09--> 2/3/09(Left)--> 19/7/09(Rejoin)--> 2/8/09

| IRC Nickname: Samurai-JM Group: Emeritus Posts: 3204 Member No.: 117 Joined: January 11, 2008 Total Events Attended: 8 | srysly runescape was alright until they started adding random crap to it to appease the child audience they so inventively seek to build. F2P skills were perfect as they were, and they actually made sense. It was like a medieval lifestyle even, having to mine, smith, shop wood, fish, and cook to survive. P2P also worked, allowing some more in depth skills like potion making, thievery, etc. Then they started adding crap like farming, construction(still the ONLY fun part of this game IMO, but it really doesn't fit with the rest of it, they just did it to copy other games), summoning, hunter, etc. These skills COULD have made sense and fit in well with the game, but runescape decided to shift from a lifestyle rpg to a minigame filled piece of crap that was easy for people to understand, regardless of how poorly it worked. They continued to ruin it by watering down gameplay to the point that you couldn't make decisions for yourself, it was all done for you. You can borrow peoples skills to do your work for you, you can't make up your own free market prices anymore, you can't even rip people off I mean wtf?! They ruined their own game just to avoid parents telling their kids they couldn't play because they got scammed, or because it seemed to violent. It's all about getting new people in at a young age so they will get addicted to it, regardless of how bad it has become because they will never know how good it was/could have been, and send all their money to play. Same thing happened to Halo, it went to the kiddies. in short: SCREW CHILDREN. GO PLAY DORA THE EXPLORER OR SOME CRAP. also you know this to be true, you can't argue the fact that this happened and this is EXACTLY what happened. You all just settled for a substandard game and you know it. Runescape could have been great. -------------------- -=}¤- Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici -¤{=- W I N N I N G | ||
