Is this an aptly named weekend!

Because at the moment Jagex staff aint bringing home the bacon.

Sad, but simply couldn't resist. A side effect of giving up on logging on for a while. As I don't seem to manage more than 5 minutes.

I'm getting rather tired of new items on squeal every week too.

There must be lots of people buying spins for them to keep doing it. Hopefully we'll begin to see something that all that extra money is going towards with the release of RuneScape 3 -- and hopefully a lot more quests.

I'm still hoping for the end to the elven quest line.

I'm with you, Mike. There are waaaaaay too many cosmetic items being introduced into the game via SoF. It makes those items so valueless.

Plus not to mention it fills up your bank with junk. Yes you can destroy the items, but still... they're utterly useless and I'm tired of getting lame cosmetic stuff from the Squeal instead of xp lamps or pendants.

The more you hope the more you will be disappointed.

People buy the spins and hope they get those cosmetic items, just like in TF2 or Dota 2, they don't help you in any way but people see a rare item and something in their head clicks into a mode that they want to get it, no matter the cost (for some people).

I purchased a cheap skin from the Solomon store and so many people asked where I got my weapon from. People just don't look.

That's one thing I don't like about their cosmetic system. You're supposed to be able to identify people's gear by how they look.

I know right? It's so hard to keep up when they spew out so many new useless crappy outfits/skins every week. :P

Maybe they'll add a "View Equipment" option.

Wouldn't count on it. I don't and haven't played in a long time but they sacked more staff this week. Belt tightening going on over there it seems.

More than likely the money and a good chunk of dev time is going towards the transformers MMO. They said it'd have a 2013 launch. Can't imagine they'd fail a fourth(third?) time at launching a new mmo. :oops:

I'm really surprised they haven't started charging for RS07 yet because of the high demand for it. There are probably more playing that than EoC unfortunately.
They are focusing on so many things at once, they can't cope with doing it all. They're losing money, as you say, sacking staff and they will ultimately probably fail another time with the release of the MMO, which will be more than likely a let down.

I know, but I like to be optimistic. Jagex is putting loads of work into RuneScape still, but it seems to be focused in the wrong areas. Ok, redoing many of the music tracks is nice, but why? And how many times are they going to update the graphics of the same areas? The engine updates should be nice, but you're right, that's coming from development on their other games.

I may contradict myself, however I really like this new graphical update! They've put a lot of work into it, despite our complaining about irrelevant SoF things :P
