Personally I'm all in for that trade-off but I could just see reddit whining in 6 weeks or next RuneFest or runescape gold 2007 and faster-ticks getting the newest bank-rework meme.As somebody who quit playing RS but nevertheless plays OSRS in addition to other popular MMOs I can't stress enough how significant the faster tick rate is for your game. The responsiveness of the sport as well as the UI are the greatest reasons why I refuse to play it with action bar style combat. There is no other"better" update. Responsive gameplay makes great games people are willing to spend cash on.

Given that the tick shift is a massive project at the scope of the full game, has got the idea appear to change it for parts of the runescape game in isolation which would profit from it the most, for example combat? I'm sure that's also quite an effort to implement, but it would enable slow rollout and a simpler time testing server stress. Every part of the runescape game broken by changing the tick could be viewed at one at a time instead of all at once, with diminishing returns on which actions gain in the responsiveness. Obviously it is still a huge job even then awarded that encouraging just combat to start would also likely require supporting movement and any other heavily-tied systems if a good alternative for making this incremental is found.

As for me, I think that is the best thought Jagex have had in a very long time. Also, but the simple fact that leagues only last a limited amount of time makes it great for boosting the runescape game on platforms such as YouTube and twitch. Hopefully these leagues may also help bring out some more updates to places like Zeah, which are notorious for being too big without enough material (though they've expanded on it quite well since Kebos).

It's PERFECTLY fine if they take pages from good features from other games using an OSRS spin. Personally, Im really excited to play this and that I dont actually care about the benefits! This is the sort of game mode I didnt know I needed but now I can not wait!! I got back to cheap rs3 gold when I saw swampletics at incident 3. I've seen a number of people say similar items in remarks on this subreddit too. I see this as jagex seeking to create that experience for the ordinary runescape participant with some quality of life and additional goals which is a fantastic thing imo.
