but the free trade is awesome

[Xbox360GamerCOD]

Thumbs up for Runescape On Consoles

[chesney121]

If you somehow brought RS to the xbox via Arcade of whatever I would play again. I went on just now and I had fun talking and visiting the famous Varrock :)

Oh god, I'm getting emotional.

[TheYac14]

whats the best way to talk to a j mod in game

[walker834]

nice guy does good.

[dragonskin5167]

Nightmarerh ftw!

[blakehoover12]

I think it would be epic playing rs on xbox or ps3

[FreemanLambda]

Tell Mark Gerhard, I said hello.

[ddawgy007]

[NemesisGFX]

[TheGoatAttack]

[ShutYourMouthBiotch]

HE SAID NO WILD

NOW HE EATS HIS OWN WORDS



[okiown1]

Thank you for this very fun and entertaining game! - Okiown

[PrinceVancrux]

If RS was ever ported to consales, I'm curious on how the controls would work

[avp3player1]

L0L fps runescape would be a mass seller!!1 but im pretty sure it will stay 3rd person, im fine with that

[spartan2222222222222]

so i have been wondering this question for a long time and here it is: what is jagex's favorite runescape machinima maker?

[harrisontracey]

this is proberly off the topic of the video but, is there any real big update/modifactions/suprises going to be added into to runescape

jagex owns all:)

[superallu12]

Mark is a cool guy :P

[Connell123456]

Do alot of j mods actually play the game on personal accounts?

[AbbYsZ1337]

i think jagex should make a FPS game that you use old weapons like "rock hammer" bow and arrows and stuff like that

[Lawl25Cb]

whats ur comat level on your personal account, Mod Crow? :)

[imdabomb39]

So as J-Mods do you only have the same rights as everyone else or can you pretty much do whatever you want?

[fledboy2]

whats the nam of the guy that owns runescape

[Co0lcaP3]

I really enjoy playing runescape,thanks for a very nice game :)!

[spyware60]

I love the last question ha ha

[xlstrbomb]

At the end: well it was a nice try :( tnx excl

[xxsomesadkidxx]

im wonding if you guys offer tours of the jagex headquaters for like so much or is the tour thing only the  vid thingy you guys do

[MrFate003142]

can i get a job there if i live in united kingom an got to collage for computers and gamming?

[0123ramy1230]

Hello, I have a small question please, I hope it's easy for you to answer..

I have been designing a fansite, I have followed your rules concerning the fansite (adding a back link, stating that every content of the game is owned by Jagex, etc.. )

My question is,, Do I have to contact the company and inform it about that fansite?!

Thanks..

[UnExtinctive]

[dudelivestrong]

@runescape do you program things on your personal account, like you do with mod acounts?

[jamiecranton]

Have you ever thought about setting up more customer support offices out side Jagex hq? I would love that Job ^_^

[elimaster501]

[wiredtoawall]

[garbomix]

[runescape]

@garbomix No no no. Excl and Tehnoobshow are the ones interviewing the CEO of Jagex! -Mod Crow

[museownz1]

@runescape So the interview by tehnoobshow with Mark Gerhard was really real? Awesome..

[bloodstarofshadow]

lol runescape rules!

[911921855]

Mod Mark?

[SuperAnthony66]

do you have any ideas of making the game a lil easier for lower lvls like lvl 70 and i have a weapon idea since you guys have a aby whip i think it should be bronze iron steel mithril black addy rune drag etc send me your feed back of this weapon

[dscimforjack]

haha @ hes last coment

[XJordanSpencerX]

Jagex do you take work exp irl cause i live in cambridge under a mile from you. please respond asap

[hansismadelol]

[xxrufi0xx]

@hansismadelol they are gold crowns genius.

[mrhiman5]

I like the feet at around 5:20

[RepreJuse4]

interview andrew gower plz !

[Ciena91]

Hey JaGeX :D I really like your game its awesome! :D I've been playing for 4 years and loving every single second of it (unless i die in PK haha :] ) So yeah, thanks for making the game and keep up the good work :D

P.S. When you made an account Mod Crow. Did you start out from scratch and leveled up origionally, or did you max yourself out? Just wondering!

Thanks -DemonPotion

[runescape]

@Ciena91 Our personal accounts are no different to yours. Everything we gain we gain through playing not from stat adjustments. -Mod Crow

[TheRagnarok1mil]

@runescape What's it like playing the game you've made? Like, do you know Everything about the game or what? Or is it a new experience, entirely?

[runescape]

@TheRagnarok1mil Well as a Community Moderator I'm not specifically involved in the content design process, which means I get to enjoy new updates without spoilers! -Mod Crow

[RunescapeWideos]

Been playing since 2004 across multiple accounts. Only update I can say I rather dislike is the trade limit, although I can see why it was implemented. You guys are doing... incredibly well.

[ftwciaranftw]

can you post personal messages in forums

[runescape]

@ftwciaranftw That would depend entirely on what you mean by personal messages. If you mean create a thread basically saying "Hey Jim! Did you watch the game last night" then no, that would be better off in a PM to that player but if you mean ask a general question to Jagex or other players then go for it. - Mod Crow

[blackbird309]

Mod Paul is cool.

[DenHaaq]

Dear Jagex,

Nice vid inside the jagex I'm enjoyed it.

i like to see more..about more mods, Anyway I like it.

Greeting, I Need Roses.

[Softiz9999]

I just wanted to tell u guys that rs is really good, despite the hp-system-thingy, but I guess I have to adapt. Anyways keep it up, cuz I just can't get enough of rs :P lol

[ftwciaranftw]

is there a chance i could talk to a jmob in a clan chat or pm i have alot of cool things

[runescape]

@ftwciaranftw Well we can't really arrange in game chats for individual players but if you have stuff you want to talk about you can always post it in our forums. -Mod Crow

[thecatyoukai]

@runescape I have a 19 year old cousin who loves runescape. However, he sees problems and room for improvement and has tons of ideas. Anyways to the point. He wants to know if their would be a way to get a job at jagex as like a idea or plot maker. He cant script, but the ideas he has are incredible to say the least. His ingame username is im_devlin

[PkHybridPk]

Do you, jagex, think runescape will last the next 5-10 years?

[runescape]

@PkHybridPk I don't see why not. Technology improves all the time and we've got a strong storyline we can keep updating. As long as there is an interest in RuneScape I don't think we'll be going anywhere.

-Mod Crow

[Sevival]

@runescape yea but its still kind of weird

about 5 years ago rs was waaaaaaaaaaaaay different as how it is now

i'm wondering what it would be in 20 years

kind of got the feeling that it would be gone

[Jonny123898]

Oh my word, I want to work with Jagex now. lol.

[SilentBaseGt]

I am hoping to join one day mabye and thanks for answering my comment i talked to you on runescape before aswell lol.

[raz0rstr]

who had the camera?

[runescape]

@raz0rstr The interview itself was filmed by Excl and tehNoobShow -Mod Crow

[wcooper97]

Speaking of some of the development blog. Aren't we a bit overdue for a new one? I mean, we haven't gotten a serious Dev blog since hitpoints was changed to constitution, like game updates that is, the clans don't really interest me but you know, there wasn't any in-depth update hints in the blogs lately.

Please give us more than a Twitter hint to the next update! : (

-LeGiiTWillie : )

[ragekilord]

but surely in 1 world would be completely full and real pkers could take out these RWTers..

[cooldude0094]

wow jagex is so beautiful inside. the company must be rich or something. lol nice jagex shirt at the begining

[paperboy7856]

why did you make it?

[SilentBaseGt]

i wonder if they have any polish mods, probably not

[runescape]

@SilentBaseGt We have a few! We've got Mods from all over! - Mod Crow

[projectpk1]

Mod Crow,

If you can change one update back to normal... Which would you change?

[runescape]

@projectpk1 Honestly? None of them. I'm a big fan of change in games as it helps them avoid being static. It's sometimes initially difficult to deal with changes but usually I find they make the game better. Those that don't are usually reversed later on. - Mod Crow

[Andycool490]

Hmm i got a question how did all of runescape start?

[infercape999]

@Andycool490 duh dont u watch tehnoobshow it started when guthix made it lol

[MyJokeySay]

jagex should make a demo of runescape on steam i meen that's like offline becuse i hate when ppl allways takes you rock,dragons, trees and much more

[MultiRunescapekid]

ncie shirt

[lorenzomilan100]

runescape on ps3 would be awesome =)

[UbersEndeDerWelt1]

RuneScape on Wii would be a good idea, actually. :D

[homonavn]

i have a question... cant u guys make a video of mod sommerz? the only norwegian mod!

---norway ftw!--

[dollzandpinz]

@jaye1050 and it would be PACKED

[dollzandpinz]

What is your level in Strength?

[archangle8141]

i wanna live in england!!!  :(

[den20vip2]

we know mechscape project was cancelled because it was in an update under other news.....

[sedanman15]

cool!!

[luise578]

whens the new skill coming out!?!?!?!?!

[SikBoi3]

what's mechscape?

[Socoolgirl94]

How do you come up with these ridiculously hard to spell/pronounce names ingame? Just curious.

[AvatarNub]

77,777th viewer

[RunescaperSeaman472]

lol, i like 777.

[pies2gd4u]

mechcape got canceled :S

[RunescaperSeaman472]

yay!

[eduardo8125]

how do you know mechscape got canceled?

[WroughtDeathVids]

@pies2gd4u what was it supposed to be

[kdslskd]

supposedly it was renamed "Stellar Dawn"

[Hertyfication]

Mod Paul M <3

[SuPeRiSoNiC]

Mod Mark is hot!

He seems to be the only non-hyperactive mod!

[CornyStuffAllTheTime]

@SuPeRiSoNiC O_O

[Pure5Productz]

he said i tried guys sorry

lol

[FishbowlsUnited]

What does Excl say at the very end?

[j0nny2c00l]

LMAO Excl's comment at the end was genius :')

[Viruspirate]

are u gonna bring wildy back

[xMizZMaudJx]

Mod Paul M is HAWT!! =D

--- xMizZ-MaudJx

[GharkanisPL]

Is making overloads during double exp weekend will grant me extra exp or ol/extremes wont work with extra exp?

[AvatarKatsuo]

Ok, If Jagex made RPGs for consoles (not online) that would rock. and eventually then maby Sony or Microsoft(xbox) might make runescape mmorpg for free. I think it's a good idea =D

[Palidino67]

Hello Jagex.

It's always interesting to listen to interviews from you. Can't wait for part two.

I wonder though, do you get an opinion from any unbiased players before making an update? You changed the penace equipment bonuses, which most experienced players would have noticed had some issues prior to the update if asked, and the new login makes me think you're starting to need more members because of a drop in subscriptions.

Regardless of if you respond, I wish you the best of luck.

[GreenMonk32]

Im sorry but constitution was a mistake.

[sidby87]

@GreenMonk32 as was dungeoneering in my opinion. like everyone else has stated, it is a minigame.

[kreearea]

what a vid:p i also would like to sya i luv the new lobby and the hp i dont really understand the thing "shattering rocks" but i will find it out :p

[R3tronomics]

lol

[runescape]

Same reason we took the Wild away in the first place I am afraid. Real World Traders abused the wilderness and even limiting it to a single world could allow them to come flooding back in.

-Mod Crow

[ExcellentScore]

where is part 2?

[runescape]

Stay tuned!

-Mod Crow

[NeZiiiPs3]

How do u get a job at jagex

[kreearea]

@runescape true but everybody likes old wildy the best its better then bh or pvp bkuz like w18 and w65 are like the most epic laggs bkuz the overcrowding if it would be like old wild there wont be such epic laggs :p my rs name is defnded mage

[furyisuponu]

lmfao "are u gonna bring back the wild"

[lewisgideon]

add a new skill like uhhh i dont know anything

[MahjongLegendAkagi]

cool :) how much a jagex t shirt will cost ?i give the video 10/10 star for sure :D

[siimpatiko]

Don't make double xp weekend for skills where you need to spend cash on it: Skills! SUMMONING PRAYER CRAFTING CONSTRUCTION HERBLORE SMITHING Please JaGeX, just think about it!!!!:@ don't fail again. TOTALLY UNJUST.:|

[xxranger05]

It's hardly going to affect you non the less...

Sure maybe you can't afford it for them brief 10 hours so train another skill.

The economy wont exactly suffer any more than it already is. If anything it will attract more people to subscribe to Members for the double XP which im assuming from a business aspect is the best outcome of this double XP event.

[MarkoSrbija01]

do they still have trade limits in RS these days?

[Ad2501]

@MarkoSrbija01 ye, ever since they were implemented, they have made it kinda fairer, but it still prevents rip-offs

[asskicker1346]

yeah. marko

[AndrewRobertNewman]

yep

[1RsVidMaker]

Yea they do

[cjstorm16]

Stubborn! haha i like it! Very firm in what he believes is good for the company and communities best interest. Be it the wild not coming back or the fact that RuneScape must be free! Good group of people that Jagex!

[aidruler]

..and that way real world would gain nothing due to the fact they would gani nothing because the "server" would only be used mainly 4 pking and nohting else so being stinking rich would mean nothing... just a suggestion i think might work.. this is the second part of my comment... other one was ealier and waiting approval

[aidruler]

i love playing runescape and all but im just wondering... like how you guys still have runescape classic up, could you make another "server" for the 2007 runescape style with the old pking and trade limits.. mainly ppl how love high risk pking.... this could be a server that doesn't have its own high scores and is just for fun ( mainly for pking ) so that old pkers would have there pking back, and real world traders would have no point because no scores or recorded and would just be a waste.....

[XxHotishxX]

Ive noticed a totally different skillcape on runescape homepage-search-warriors' guild-a guy wearing a white skillcape with purple/gold trimming...this picture has become popular and people are starting to question it.just like"youwasted5secs" said above.

[sharkey500]

Mod Paul M

If Andrew gower and Mark geheard quit, will you be the new CEO?

[SKI3Z0]

lmao i have reach 99 wc!

jagex.. love you game ''runescape''

[hellow533]

@SKI3Z0 im 99 wc my acc name is dr raichu

[tflood1996]

duuuuuuude Mod Paul M, you remind me so much of wikus in district 9. im meaning that in a good way

[TheFailUnit]

If I was to want a job at the Jagex studio, would I be able to apply? How old would I have to be? Any information if I would even be able to get the job would be very helpful!

Thanks.

[xSlashAkAWakaLaka]

its on the Jagex website,all the information can be found there.

[youwasted5secs]

Jagex.... i've seen a picture on the runescape website.. not that one with the "sailing" skillcape..

but erhm.. a purple skillcape...

search>warriors guild>(warriors guild tab)>scroll down> that dude with full bandos + purple skillcape.

is that real?

- Nightmare

[flipgangsta1]

thats untrimmed fishing, it has a weird purple trim

[BBallBoy506]

I know Jagex wants more players on runescape and i think jagex should have polls what jagex should add mnay players dont understand how hard it is to think of it but if we had more polls more reading what players want not what the jagex team want and what the players want and what the jagex team can do

i just hope we can get new amor we got new wepons but not much new amor that wont deg and hopfully new magics and full loots trading isnt somthing we need back.

BBALLBOY506

write back plz

[odsta88]

it would back up there systems because it takes up space

[jthwdraco]

If runescape is going to be for a game console is everything going to be F2p or as it is, how are your views for that?

[Arodfever]

I mean I would try to go on a console, but not all consoles are connected to Internet ex. An Xbox 360 w/ o Xbox live

[kpdog1bold]

ya i watched excl goes to England =[)

[mystic0276]

good luck on creating mechscape xD

[zsupersaiyan]

'In the JaGex way we do it first and that talk about it'

[madmarshy09]

putting it on a console would be well to hard to play and would take u ages to scroll to ur inventory etc unless it was with the project natale that is coming out with xbox 36

[monkeyman81597]

is their a united states chapter of jagex corp.?

[runescape]

No, we're UK based.

-Mod Crow

[monkeyman81597]

Well, by ny chance would you guys be willing with your concent to open up a replica of your current building here?

[OriginalYTName]

is there anything you can tell us about when it comes out on the console?

It would be so good on a console, no other games are like that at all..

[alladdin193]

wow! how much was your camera hd! 1080 o.0

[runescape]

It's actually Mod Mattyc's camera and I do believe it was remarkably expensive!

-Mod Crow

[Bomberboy365]

Mark Gerhard scares me...

very butch...

Very serious...

[AshDonson]

Am I the only one who wants to work there when I see the 'Behind the Scenes' kinda vids =P if only I was going to Uni to do gaming rather than Classical Civilisation...

[Ganthir]

Does Jagex want to release Runescape to consoles as a download online game? Or a full featured Disk based game? I suppose it would be Download only.. never mind then.

But I'm almost 100% certain The Playstation Network would definitely be for the free to download & play. Microsoft on the other hand tends to be a bit.. greedier than Sony.

But boy, seeing Runescape fleshed out with current-gen graphics / animation / effects would be a pretty sight.. :D

[24mindfreak]

runescape needs some tv attention that would be freaking sweet!!

-24mindfreak

[Alamo8151]

Wow MMG has some guns

[KovSpartan]

yea i do like the fact that it is free with options of members

[r3al1200]

They already advertised rs on t.v

[xxl30001king]

never seen any :o
