    To be honest, I don't think it will be so disastrous!!!

    There are MANY negatives which I hate, and speaking as an RS player since 2005, I would hate the old basics to change, much more than I hated SoF. I have only ever achieved 1 level 99 and that took me absoloutely ages. How people have the time to get 10+ level 99s is beyond me.

    Many people have LIVES, and so the only way for players who want to play in a competitive way to gain a few 99s, while actually meeting real life commitments, was to bot. Many people agree that botting has been extremely detrimental to the game.

    By making levelling easier, much more people will be less inclined to bot and actually play the game properly and reach higher levels manually.

    Although I like the old "classic" feel of the runescape combat system, I think it DOES need a change. Combat to be honest is pretty boring in runescape. Auto-hits all the time, and just watching the outcome of a match boil down basically to pure luck was extremely frustrating. Adding at least a bit of dynamic combat would be a good thing in my opinon, as well as cutting down months of grinding constantly to get level 90+ in some skills and will increase the player base.

    Overall, I mildly support the update, but I do think that Jagex should always make clear to us that they will be prepared to reverse the update in case it really does turn out to be absoutely terrible, which they would do if it completely kills their game and they have no more players left.

    It's going to be fresh. I for one don't play RS at all for fun, and I know I'll be checking the hell out of this, so hopefully it brings some older players back to the game.

    Also, if you don't enjoy the combat system, you can use the old one click system with the Momentum ability.

    So it is going to be make x for all skills now? Like how it is with say fletching? And what's this about dropping hotkeys? How does that work?

    Going to make botting a lot more efficient. I might pick Simba back up again.

    This "make x" thing... Does that mean you could instantly get the exact amount of noted items and high alch them all instantly? Or is it essentially a bot that makes you wait for 4+ hours while it automatically alchs all those items without clicking?

    I imagine it will be the latter? If you could instantly get like 99 magic, that would be insane!!! (and save me a hell of a lot of time too!)

    Keen for this "make x" thing.
    Also, the new player base that it is hoping to attract means more business for us sythe users in the long run! :)

    On my own opinion, the positive side that I can see about EoC are the major update itself wherein items have new looks and the well improve battle system of the game are far much better. For old-time players, they may find EoC as a negative thing. The actual reason is that they had already enhanced their gaming skill with the old combat system. Thus, releasing EoC makes everyone back again from the start as beginners in the field of combat.

    To tell you more, Jagex had already opened Combat Beta for everyone to test and I just did. EoC is a bit more complicated and there are a lot of things that needs to be learned but I really find it fun to play as compared to the old traditional method of combat.

    Moreover, since EoC is yet to be released. We cannot yet tell the actual positive and negative effect when it has been implemented on the actual live game.

    They will have a massive surge in new players who consider it a "new game" Jagex's point of view, more players = more money.

    You all are being completely biased, I dare you to go make a new account, and say that you're having fun training up, I seriously dare you. Because I did, and you know what happened? I resorted to botting after about 20 attack because it's so god damn boring. JaGeX is bringing in a new playerase that they can have for the future. They need to do this, or no new player's will ever start playing this game, because it is so god damn boring.

    EOC will be a great update for the health of the game. If you don't like something about it then give feedback on the forums in the appropriate way and they will actually take your feedback into consideration and change things if they think you have a good point. I did so before and saw my suggestion implemented in the beta.

    Faster EXP rates, easier dropping of ore/logs/fish when skilling.

    Dropping an invent in 1 second is brilliant for some skilling, and the solo dg xp rate update is also going to be amazing.

    ? They nerfed it, the x option does allow you to clean 10 herbs at a time, but it is really slow. The live version which we do at the moment is much faster.

    The eoc makes combat more fun/engaging.

    Makes dungeoneering much faster.

    Requires some skill regarding the next move you make.

    New armour sets, bosses and more.

    Flowering gone!

    There's a lot more, trust me when I say this update is needed for this game.

    You would need to be able to clean 4 herbs every 0.6 seconds and be using either torstol or fellstalk to get 280k exp/hour.

    Only positive things are the new versions of turmoil and easier skilling, but what's the use of it if the game is going to shit? Old players like me play runescape for runescape, not some shit/wannabe version of wow. The fact that nex gear is no longer unique, all specials are removed, xp rates have been increased way too much, the combat system itself is shit (I've played it with an open mind, got bored of it VERY quickly), and so much more..

    Just saying, if you want to play RUNESCAPE a private server is the only option now.

    A cut and dry 50/50 chance with staking is all I'm hyped about.
