Give us some idea's and things we can add/change about WorldScape to make it a lot more enjoyable for you. It can be the smallest thing, or it can be a huge thing. Post your thoughts.
i think we have to change the pking it really dont care me what
because the pking is most important in ws the time ws was with much people was because,
everybody love the pking
and i think add me skills
make items like partyhat h ween to rare
added a pking points to get rares
like when you have 40 points you can buy dragon fireshield or something like that.
bring the old files in world 2 back.
possible to play fight pits
more minigame's like the game with the boat etc
vote rewards
and when send people once a e-mail when they play like a long time ws not
like 3 months
my wishes:
- Delete all runes from world 2 whens its back up running :)
- Make p-hats rare
- make wepons more rare etc, dragon daggers, dh axe's, d scim
- post more advertisements for worldscape, there is no more people playing it anymore :(
- have more mini games
- more updates
Get back to the game's roots and don't ban players that make the game enjoyable. 90% of the people that used to play the game only came on to chat with old friends and try to make new ones. When you start banning those players, several others are going to leave because there is no point in them staying. Most people couldn't care less if you only updated once every few months as long as it is still fun, but without fun people the game has an infinitely small chance of actually being fun.
Unfortunately, however, those people you banned are long gone for the most part and so are the people who left with them. If it's really worth it to you, track them down and politely invite them back. If you were, to say, bring back Volcanic Me you could potentially bring back fifteen monthly users. Luke? Ten more users. Aaron? Ten more. You could bring back over a hundred monthly users in under an hour of effort. Track them down and ask them if they'd like to play again. If they say no, that's fine. Let them go and don't be dicks about it. Whether they say yes or no, unban them. If you're willing to offer them to come back, unban them anyway. They'll eventually pop in every now and then and people will hear about it.
You owe it to the players that left who weren't banned, you owe it to the players that play now, and to be honest you owe it to 70% of the people you banned.

Luke and Aaron are never allowed back here. I would rather have Jeremy owner again then have them in this community.

They hacked our site and deleted everything. I think it is a valid reason for us to keep them banned.
And if you are referring to Jeremy, Bill caught him scamming people out of IRL cash/RSGP. He would "sell" them admin and proceeded to ban them after they paid him.
Create some quests! Fix the pking. Release a few more skills. Just add more content in general. Maybe some more shops.
add new monsters and training areas etc the "Nex" monster
Hmmm, I think you should put Clue Scrolls as moderately common drop for 'Guards'. Then every Clue Scroll has a different mini quest. After you finish the mini quest you get given a puzzle piece. Once you have 4 puzzle pieces you should be able to hand them into someone and they will give you an item in exchange for it. Sometimes you could get something like a Mithril Platebody, and sometimes you could get something like a Godsword Shard.
It's just a suggestion.
I know Aaron and Luke won't be unbanned, but I was just saying.
turn worldscape's pking back to what it was in 2007

2 handed weapons can be used as 1 handed
::ilovechocice
choc-ice gives 25 hp
and you could 3 hit if you were good enough

Thats all i can think of at the moment, if you know more features please tell me and ill add it
The least you could do is make another world with these features

I threw the idea on the table to remove all 474 items, create world 2 as world 1 and world 1 as world 2(I know that sounded confusing). World 1(Old accounts) will be wiped of all 377+ items. We would bring back classic pking, and remove lunars. We would in return change the rewards are barrows to something else. But it would be good old classic. Choc-ice and all. Yes, defence would be disabled.
i think it will be awsome if it come back
You guys are being stupid. It isn't as easy as you think it is.

I personally think if Pking were to be fixed then that would attract some more members. I know it's probably impossible, but back when 3 hit was alive that's when the server was at its peak.
yeah if pking was back to old school i think everyone would play it again and instead of new people logging in nobody online then just quitting they will actually stay at all-go-free.
Everything has changed to much. i don't really know how far you guys will go to get players back.

Well, this is what I suggested to Ryan.
Remove Special Attack
Remove Defence bonuses
Bring back mass choc-ice
Bring back Pumpkins
Remove Lunars
Sort of Re-Do all of that. But What do you guys think about the 474 items?
remove them, and get the 3 hitting back if possible.
Quote from: wolf on August 30, 2012, 03:45:10 AM
leave them, and get the 3 hitting back if possible.
That will be "Classic" as we all know it.
Make it pretty much where whips were the good way to PK those were the good days. Man I do miss this server and the community. :'(
Off topic but uhh Kevin what happened to RR like no one goes there is these spam post EVERY second. :'(

The good way to PK was with DDS.

If you change the pking it should be changed to this.
who will play worldscape if it gets reverted back to classic? I know i will.
As soon as Ryan and Myself have some free time we will work on this. It should only take about a day to complete. But Ryan is about to start his classes, along with working on a side project with Seva and myself. But WorldScape is still in our thoughts :D Don't worry. We'll see if we can get it done this weekend. Not going to say it is for sure.

Awesome
contrary to popular belief, simply inviting players back won't bring them back. They broke rules because the game was boring to them, and if they could go back in time, they would do it over again. hell, i used to be the biggest bug abuser out there, that was because i just simply got bored of the game. Even if they were unbanned, they have already lost interest in this game and are addicted to some other game. thats how growing up works. interests fade as time goes on. for those of you who knew me and drakedriller, we played worldscape religiously back since 2009, but had a period from 2010-2011 where we didnt play. you don't see us playing anymore. we have found different interests.
from my experience, any change to anything makes players leave and brings new ones. there is no way to please everyone. i know i have been one of the biggest annoyances to AllGoFree, and have argued with 99% of their choices, but they are doing their best to try and please everyone. their only choice is to find the largest common ground between everyone, so try not to give them as much as a hard time i used to.
thank you,
Nate
worldscape in 2007 and now are 2 completely different servers and with all due respect worldscape now is not half as good as what it used to be back in the day when players like Zaaa and Mooshu still ruled the wilderness :D where the best days i had fun pking and then it completely changed along with many others i quit worldscape and stayed on the forums because the forums was and still remains more exciting than the game. Will i ever leave All-Go-Free, no i will not it was the first server i ever played, i never broke a single rule except i duped once but i did report it and it was fixed shortly after. if you do not know what dupe it was it was done with a weapon or shield or bones.
Kevin can you please make a poll for this subject.
How Would You Want Worldscape To Be?
- No Leave Worldscape The Way It Is.
- Yes Revert Worldscape to Classic Without 377+ Items.
- Yes Revert Worldscape to Classic With 377+ Items.
- Keep Worldscape The Way It Is And Remove 377+ Items.
Regards

The good days were when Whips didn't hit at all if you used them, The days when DDS was the only was to absolutely destroy people. When using a Mouse Toy and Anger Axe would be the quickest was to train strength.
damn I miss those times.
yeah i miss it too but i im not sure if the old people come back,
you know its like 4 years ago maybe some of them have a real job etc.
nate i im sure when the pking change and old pking back we have more players then now
Yeah i miss the old days but its not all about getting old players back most of which quit when worldscape was at its prime but its about getting more players instead of 0 players online it will be 20+ when it gets back to what it used to be.
i have an idea why to the smart players in this who wants old pking helping ryan en kevin to bring it back
if they want :) :) :) :)
I think we should make santas,H ween, and P hats rare. It just seems to be the right thing to do.

Whatever you can do to get 50+ players on again is chill with me.

The Food glitch can't be re-made, unless Ryan has it backed up somewhere, because, well, it was a glitch. People don't purposely make glitches ::)
3 Hit wasn't a glitch, I don't think, so I think it could be re-applied. I dunno if it would be the same as what it was. The only reason 3 hit was so awesome was because there was a food glitch.
Having the game back would be awesome.
It would be possible to code in food glitch if they put a very small delay on being able to be healed after taking damage. Although it wouldn't be quite the same :(

The 3 hit from old classic can't be remade. But there was other methods I used to pk with after we switched game engines. The blitz classic will never be the same as old classic, but we will make it as close as we possibly can.
I'm new here and all and for the past few days its been a ghost town for me in-game ive been trying to get some members online to at least have fun with someone and get a little help on things.
I think the server just needs more advertising and im sure most of u all already looked into it but if u like i have the money to posting this on Google for advertising if ya need it. Just let me know a head of time and i can get on it so the community gets up and going like it use to be.

I think we need a more active and enjoyable community. Kevin, not to criticize you, but I think you should unban some of the people that you banned who made this game fun (Not Luke or Aaron though). Like, some people deserve a second chance imo. But even with that, not a whole lot of people would play.
Making the game better isn't entirely the staff's job. The game itself could be amazing but without a good community it would not be a fun environment to play in.

Could not have said it any better. most of the people who got banned probably wont come back for the reason that they got banned.

words stolen from my mouth.
As i have stressed before, i do no believe that old players will return to actually play the game.
At this point, i couldn't care less what you do to worldscape, as long as there are more players. i can tell you now that if there are more than 30 players on at once year round, you will have two more (me and drakedriller). But as i have said before, we now have other interests, and most likely will not play the game as religiously as we once did. (hint: i was number 1 on high scores at one point)
Honestly, this is a community-based game more than a content-based game. Speaking to the developers here, if you want to balance that out more, you need to add more addicting features to the game that aren't too difficult, tedious, or limited for us players to do, that way everyone can get involved. Because as of now, people really only played to socialize with eachother.
Sure you've added zombies, but that minigame is extremely difficult with the few amount of players that play at the moment, especially since the reset. Camp is good for everyone but it's the same thing over and over again and it gets quite old in my opinion. All skills are the same basic training methods that every server has. The few other minigames such as castle wars and duel arena are also the same content from every other server. The party room is probably the best content in the game, but the task of getting so many fires is extremely tedious unless you have a lot of people, which can be very fun getting all the fires, but the drop parties, especially 1st class, are disappointing to say the least. They don't drop very many useful items, and not that many balloons fall either. You spend a ton of time for something that's over in a matter of seconds.
I'm not hating on any of the content I just mentioned, as it's all very well added content. The problem is mainly boredom (or difficulty, in the case of zombies). If you guys had a fun activity that almost any player could do and it wasn't any sort of tedious task or the same thing over and over, it would really spice the game up.
I realize that this is exactly what you're asking for in this topic, however. One big thing that would help is staff activity. There's almost never staff online on worldscape. The developers' excuse is they are busy with RuneRebels. I completely understand that, but keep in mind that these are two separate games, and that if all the admins on this game are focused on a different game, it doesn't do much good to call them admins on this game. If you can't get the admins to spend more time on WorldScape, then perhaps consider having admins solely for worldscape to play and interact with all of the players and do activities such as host in-game events.
As for content, maybe an on-going minigame with a lot of content and variation as you progress, sort of like dungeoneering in RuneScape or something like that. As long as it can keep players entertained for long periods of time, it'll be good.
These are just my thoughts, and I'm not trying to put worldscape down or criticize it in any way. They're just my ideas to improve.
Who do you suppose should be unbanned? I can't think of anyone who was banned that shouldn't be right now. (Banned by me at least.)
As for RuneRebels, that is currently on hold. We have every intention on finishing it. But as of right now it is not being worked on. We haven't worked on anything RSPS related in awhile.
Dude.. Kane... way to rip my idea. xD
What idea? :o

I do agree to majority of this. A lot of people play private servers primarily because they want to play RuneScape as it use to be without working as hard for their skills and items (most of you probably know that). I remember when I first played WorldScape, I loved the idea of ::runes, probably one of the reasons why I stayed.
In a sense, private servers are there to provide content that is buffed. I think more overpowered content would appeal to a percentage of people out there that want to play rsps (even if it's only a few months).
Of course content will have to be balanced in some way, just not too balanced that it loses the feeling of a rsps. The server must remain unique at all times (that attracts people from other rsps) and gives the feeling of being "home". ;d
Now I understand people may entirely disagree with me solely because they play rsps for different reasons, but it's always good to provide feedback from many perspectives. ;]
why is runerebels on hold?
Here is an idea to get a word out to all players. So you know how all player had to sign up using an email address right? So how about Ryan sends mass emails to all players that have joined forums to play Worldscape? The email can say something like IT'S BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER! Just a suggestion. Hate on it if you want.

Log in with the 317 client and leave tar. And don't go there again with a 508 client.
And for future reference, post an actual topic about this, don't spam random topics.
how can i download 317 client???

I have the same problem as harckus01 and i tried your link but the Update Client.bat doesn't continue at downloading.
Omg guys make a separate topic about this >.>
why are there so less people who play this game it used to be populair
because people grow up and have different interests.
i.e. girlfriends, jobs, bigger games, etc.
And because the best players either quit or got banned.. And by best I mean most interesting/fun/chill people who made the community what it was... RIP :(

There are many, many, reasons. If you read through most topics you'll see plenty of reasons, I don't think I have to touch base with any of that. Regardless, we have to stop living in the past. The old mbers are gone, look towards getting new members.
It starts here in this topic!
You could create a noticeable platform used to display all community, game, and upcoming updates. We need some sort of catalyst for hype and I think this could help.
