So true. It is largely to blame the RS3 developers literally don’t have any idea what to do with PvP and RuneScape gold how to balance it. They are like beginner amateurs which never dealt with an mmorpg. It is quite sad the OSRS development group is far superior in every way. I enjoy RS3 the upgrade graphics, but the game is hollow and the fact everything is top tier or nothing is just sad. The extreme DPS differences between somebody using complete keybinded mouse in comparison with some man trying to create it is different. It is paradise that is elitist. The EOC system in RS3 just isn’t that good and badly equipped, it seems to me that it is limited to what the obsolete engine can handle. They made it to be compatible with a modified RS2 motor rather than doing what other MMO programmers did that was designing a new game engine depending on the battle system they want.
No amount of adjustments and balancing will make it appealing to PVP when the offender is that the battle system. Some MMOs have a major pvp scene where people waste hours PVPing for no gain whatsoever because their combat system is engaging and fun whereas RS does all it can to give GP incentive but nobody’s bitig and for good reason.Sure it is only a tiny step up from the prior old school battle system but it’s just not that great and still brings the crappy attributes from the older. Those attributes being long ticks, grid centered placement, point and click on movement and automated trageting that produces battle so clunky and meh in the event that you compared it using latest MMOs so you won’t be getting new players to appreciate it.
Runescape has quite a player pool. Most of the OSRS players performed in the afternoon. So once you look at somebody who knew rs in 2005 or 2006, or 2004, during the hayday of player populations, should they need to choose, they’ll choose a 2007scape game because it’s more comfortable. RS3 is an entirely different game. RS3 is attempting to be something whilst OSRS adopts its legacy that it can not. Old School has outdated art style, the old battle which fits with the grid/0.6 tick system, while RS3 attempts to go the action bar route that needs fluid gameflow, which RS3 simply doesn’t have. Additionally it’s unbelievably old and complex. Try to leap into another MMO that’s been going on for some time? Try out maplestory two or TERA. You’ll quickly be overwhelmed with 100 interfaces like RS3 does. To get a player, it’s a massive turn away. That’s not even talking about the jumble players are supposed to know, that is just the basics.
A different way to look at it, or from another angle. Jagex has failed at least a dozen times of making games in the market. One of the most notable is they were operating on a Transformers game at one point. However, because of the way they used to create matches. They fall short. In the very least. There is a Reddit article that exists that tells of this environment that is working and it is gloomy. The reason EoC worked out in my opinion is because they’d. Its much smaller but quite a few gave it a shot. For many years no less, myself included. But right now it is like watching your puppers as it is barely able to stand. So exhausted and OSRS Money so tender. It is merely a matter of time.
