RuneScape High Detail is here!

[Anigamal67]

When I first saw HD, I was amazed.

Amazing work JaGeX

keep up the great work!!!!

[AKUJU]

hope you guys keep up the good work and i have a series of questions lol more like 2

1) when are we getting sky boxes

2) can u give the rune 2h back its "clang" noise when you hit something instead of the "whooosh" noise. ty.

[santamario99]

I Love this Hight Detail tbh :) but wish screen would be bigger. :).

Jagex whats with World 35? its been offline lately :S

And why is rs Client taking so much CPU even though I got all reqs for best game play and stuff. Only RS takes much CPU :S

[RancidToe]

I love the new graphics! I love full screen :D

[guitarherochamp1]

R.I.P. Runescape I always loved playing this game but there's so many new things it's not the same anymore :( y Jagex y!!!!!!!

[thejagexchannel]

@guitarherochamp1 We've always been updating our game, normally adding new content 3 times every month, so a constantly changing RuneScape *is* the old RuneScape. Mod Ajd

[nerbne]

@1sunberg1 Yeah same

[OfficialWarrock]

Do another big update such as this one. Add new emotes and stuff. I love this game. Ive been with you guys since 2005, keep up the awesome stuff!

[dahaxor]

I hope

[Dr0FT1]

R.I.P old rs 2005-2007

[idiotsftw123]

i remember seeing this way back when this update first came out...i was ecstatic...keep up the good work jagex! Could you make one of the graphics options the original graphics before this update? that would be pretty nostalgic

[thejagexchannel]

@idiotsftw123 we would love to include the old graphics in as an option but each set of graphics we have adds to the development time of the game. We are keeping the options as they are so that we can keep on doing our regular updates. Mod Ajd

[Marine112672]

I would like to thank JaGex LTD. for making this amazing game. All the updates are fantastic and I could never get tired of playing RuneScape. Some updates have their flaws however most of the updates are wonderful and add a lot to the game, such as the Dungeoneering skill.However , I`d like to see less bots in game. There`s too many of them, and they really change the price of the G.E. It`s frustrating to know that all my hard work of fishing sharks won`t make so much money.

-Slayer192678-

[BurrSoIccy]

I wish they would make an option for you to play with the old RS graphics, I mean the new one is pretty cool but like I the old one so much more

[thevabproductions]

newer graphics comming out soon -

Behind The Scenes September- Major Graphical update

[aeronw00t]

ok see if jagex want's to solve all these problems they should make it the players choice, not theres. They should really have an option where you can pick your graphics level, how you want to play the game etc. give the players more options.

[thejagexchannel]

@aeronw00t we are working on more graphics choices but each option we include adds to development and Q/A time (as we have to make & check the content for each graphical set up) so for practical reasons we can't offer all the previously available options. As for "how you want to play the game" we try to make the game as open ended as possible but have had to remove some content in the past due to its impact on the game as a whole. Mod Ajd

[Murderwink1]

Jagex, please make a server like you did with runescape classic, that is runescape 2005-2006.

those were the best years of runescape in my opinion.

[Shift025]

I think Jagex Should have the old 2004 RS graphics and the Graphics they have now. and High Detail so you can pick which one you want to play on

[strikeboyz]

@Shift025 So agree man That way i Wont lag every TiME!

[Demizei]

@Shift025 Yeah ;S

[mmccollum999]

New graphics are sweet i think

[mmccollum999]

Idk why so many people dont like the new graphics there sweet

[mmccollum999]

idk why people like old new is pretty sweet :)

[mmccollum999]

idk why people like old new is pretty sweet

[MrKoenify]

RuneScape is AWESOME

[seanbo999]

I really miss the old RuneScape. Look at the chatheads.. look at how people used to walk. The bad sound effects and old RuneScape music.

THAT WAS WHAT MADE RUNESCAPE RUNESCAPE!

It was distinct - different from other games...

Running around in Lummy F2P 04 - 07 was amazing, truly amazing. Listen to "Harmony (old RuneScape version) Amazing memories, and the one thing that comes to my mind is; "Rainbow Boots" :D.

[plj0pad]

if Jagex made Runescape graphics like WOW nobody would play WOW anymore.. Runescape own wow in everything but graphics!

[xXRaimundoX]

its as if, this is "Runescape: Cataclysm" as the world has changed just like WoW and TBH i think Blizzard only did Cata cus of this :P

[PkProject1]

Because of this update, followed by the trade limit and removal of pking. I quit rs :(

[Jackspadeproductions]

I'm tried of games trying to be so realistic that takes away from imigination

that's what i liked about the old rs

[rubenhoed]

Detail good update most other updates just suck

[MagicAura2000]

I've had some pretty fond memories of this game both old and recently as of now. Graphics are okay, not the best but then again it's in java so... it's pretty up there for a f2p online mmo browser game.

The only thing that kills me is the music tracks! Arg!!!

[tuber324]

Old runescape was cool and all, but we have to move on. We would get bored of seeing the same graphics everyday. Just because the graphics changed doesn't mean that the game play is any better. So anyone who says rs was better before the update has no clue about graphics. It now just LOOKS better, didn't change how we PLAY.

[MegaGeoff12]

There making it so its like a proper computer game the one you buy for a lot of money from retail stores

[Obelisk1990]

Wow over 1M views??

And old is not better, RS was laughed at by other games because of the 7 inches screen lmao. I can't think back of the small screen, resized is the best there is. AMAZING!!

[xXZarlachXx]

@Obelisk1990

That's not what everyone else is talking about... we're talking about the gameplay, when pvp in wildy, trading market in fallador park, no trade limit, no grand exchange, no merch clan that ruin prices.

[ypanquef]

@Obelisk1990 it was for its gameplay and no trade limit oh i loved those days

[gabopoldo]

is it for premium people or for every1?

[arild97]

@gabopoldo its for every one

[hockity]

old is better <3

[noobcakesl0l]

they should have made this rs3 because the new graphics attract a lot of attention from those guys that like to call people noobs and everything, the graphics have worsened the community

[KBDSeerHurt]

olds better

[Remi1115]

Is that an In-game song?

Remi1115

[kinglyscout]

@Remi1115 no

[PineappleAlex]

Best update to ever hit the game. Waited so long for this one.

[baconman385]

I remember on the Homepage, Jagex was annoucing this.. Awesome!

[jasperc121]

wow the graphics are still not that good.

[mondayss123]

Old rs R.I.P the old graphics was the best bit about runescape, now thjey've made it suck, they shud have a different server, old rs but you should still get xp on real Rs PPPPLLLLLEEEAASSE, comment if you agree

[XxpaintballerxX98]

@mondayss123 very good idea

[PineappleAlex]

@mondayss123 You can still go back to old graphics so don't QQ.

[0rbEffect]

thumbs up if u like old rs!!!

[DeathSkyPictures]

I don't know why people keep complaining about the new graphics, but I really like it more than the old one :)

[BakuganExedra]

@DeathSkyPictures They Dont care how it looks, they like the old one mainly because of "memories" i agree with them , but people have other opinions, i cant stop them so ya :)

~exedra

[tanman1994]

OLD ONE SUCKED!!!!! You couldn't even see there faces. If you think the old ones were better then you obviousley don't know graphics Now work on the people's faces and hands. the hands look like snowballs. And add the Zoom Feature like WOW (Zooming upclose to your character). Also add the movement with the keyboard.

[RaianTheFallen]

@tanman1994 Old graphics were awesome because of nostalgia and the memories they had. You're a fucking retard.

[lightneo2002]

@tanman1994 I would say this is damn near impossible with a Java based game.

[rafaelloaa]

funny how the video is about the new hd (i know it's old now...) but the video isn't in hd.....

just saying

go jagex u rock!

[tanman1994]

OLD ONE SUCKED!!!!! You couldn't even see there faces. If you think the old ones were better then you obviousley don't know graphics

[DieOrSubscribe]

It's not the old graphics I miss, it's the element of being a newb. When you are a noob to a game everything is an adventure and you can make anything fun. When you become skilled at games like this it just becomes about money and skills. I think the greatest achievement Jagex could fulfill is to be able to make the game fun and adventurous for all us skilled players.

[svenshonk]

i like the old one more than the new one...

[UrFunnyManHD]

old one was way better

[Bakuneon]

@UrFunnyManHD agrreed

[UrFunnyManHD]

old one was way better

[gunsuka33]

jagex please make an server were u can play old and new runescape or make a vote whats better old are new pleasEEEE!

[MrCactusplants]

All jagex needs to do now is...

add W,A,S,D for movment. :)

[seanbo999]

To be honest.. Old RuneScape graphics made RuneScape RuneScape... There was no other MMORPG with not so good graphics and amazing gameplay.. It just amazed people when they got hooked on it.

Now we look like clay blobs :(

[WaRnEr1080]

i like the water effects so realistic. runescape has changed so much in little time.. if we go like this, wow will go far after us

[risking4life]

miss good old rs pking

[risking4life]

miss good old rs pking

[smoke8131]

If they made this game with top of the line MMO graphics and a more complex story line, runescape would be the best game around.

[Bigdadyv05]

amazing how far this game has gone

[Techn0Junki3]

i miss old rs..

[coolkorsah1]

130 million? Holy crap..I didn't know all these join

[Meteorito494]

@coolkorsah1 fail the most played game has 17 milion

[tobepersa]

i liked that graphics was sooooo good but now its sooooo shitty like prob more than 10k+ ppl will quit cuz of sucky updates

[kidklown2]

OLD MAN DID ROB THE BANK I KNEW IT!@@

[boomhotchocolate]

I used to love the old Graphics, but I don't hate the new ones. It's just the old ones bring back memories.. :/

[RSpants]

old is better,btw new is good too

[aidan00ah]

What song is it? Please reply!

[aidan00ah]

What song is it? Please reply!

[aidan00ah]

What song is it? Please reply!

[RaiseMeFromTheDead]

I wish they kept servers of Old RS2 Up :( -Just after the release of godwars :/

[RaiseMeFromTheDead]

I wish they kept servers of Old RS2 Up :( -Just after the release of godwars :/

[RaiseMeFromTheDead]

[seerserker]

Are there anyways to get that music?

[RunescapeGamingGuide]

rs2? what do you mean? rs classic vs. the most up to date rs? lol...

[Miny000000]

WoW tags?

[ness682]

Man, those chat screens do not look anything like the ones in the game, the RS2 ones do, but not the new ones =l RS2 FTW!! :)

[AttackHelps]

To be honest it's not the graphics most of us miss, (I personally prefer the better graphics) but it's the old graphics that reminds us of the old RS, like Classic PKing, No trade limit, etc. And now things have gotten worse with Hitpoints being changed, a lot of people think the new skill is the change Hitpoints got, but Jagex said that the change in Hitpoints is NOT the new skill they mentioned, and that they are almost done with it.

[RunescapesMurderer]

do you want a job?

[DeathCoreRage]

I agree, they are ruining rs with each update there doing, but i do like the hd graphics

[Anto395Productions]

I think you're right attack... God, remeniscing is never pleasant... Although I absolutely do miss the old emotes to 100%

[specter604]

@AttackHelps WTF is with you crybabies and whining about the hitpoint conversion? How in any way at all is it worse?

[daleizere0]

lol

[Glitch1500]

I still like Runescape, I hate the haters, but I rekon that the new HP thing is really confusing. At least it's more accurate. I guess it will take time to get used to. I hope the new skill comes out soon, theres nothing to do atm.

[bulka000]

Lol yea it's just plain old boring. Don't even know what to do even tough im p2p...

[Dragon45348]

I would love RSC graphics on rs2 :s

[scaperune513]

yeah it did ruin the game :l most of these recent updates

[pjp1113]

FINALLY!!!

[thecongokid]

ah, the good 'ole rs pics of the faces and the places i remember the way the games was the walks the runs how many of you get good memories from back then after you see those pics? :(

[TB674]

i miss alot of old stuff on rs, like the old login screen, but there is no way i want it back!!

i just like to think of the ol' days.

[guitarguy049]

@thecongokid me lol,I played this when I was in 5th grade up until maybe 8th,and just started again..this game is probably the only one I've ever gotten into and enjoyed everything about it

[mmccollum999]

@guitarguy049 Agreed

[mmccollum999]

@guitarguy049 Agreed :P

[Ipr0tect]

@thecongokid MEEEE OF COURSE!! I <3 the old walking animations. And people would die and their dead body would rome around the area they died in...good times.

[Ipr0tect]

@thecongokid MEEEE OF COURSE!! I <3 the old walking animations. And people would die and their dead body would rome around the area they died in...good times.

[Bloom06VsGabryPonte]

@thecongokid i started playing in 2005 and i think rs was awesome! but now i think it suck to be honest =(

[GuitarHeroLubos]

sorry but i dont liek the new skill what is it like constituasdf something to ruin hp or something like that poersonally i dont like it so i quit runescape!

[10zuelka2]

[w1ck3dad4m]

[tuanzack2]

[RunescapesMurderer]

[kjevo]

[eekin19972]

[ChrisTheSpiritOfGods]

[DarkGroudon8]

This was the most epic thing i have ever seen so far!! It was soooo perfectly done! I loved all the effects!!! U should totally enter this in as contest entry for something! 5/5 no question about it!

[idiotsftw123]

[pxpc2]

tru

[sonic123blue]

Only if i could use High Detail... See I use a TV for a Computer Screen, adn when i trie High Detail, my PC Freezes. Any help?

But still this video still rocks.[=

[HeeliumProductions]

Umm i liked RSC the most.Ability to sleep,the game was harder and there was no grand exchange.One potato is worth 100gp in G.E!

[Cataclsmic]

they should make this an in game music track \\m// °__° \\m//

its wicked

[LAVERN691]

This brilliant Samoan kid coded a runescape account hacker.

Heres a rs account that I just hacked with the account hacker

[creamsodaboy]

Holy Shit! I remember when this game, literally, first came out and it had horrible 2D graphics, now look at it! Runescape sure has come along way.

[Glazourz9]

@creamsodaboy Yeah I can Still play it on moparscape but put it  on 2D Graphics

[Glazourz9]

@creamsodaboy Yeah I can Still play it on moparscape but put it on 2D Graphics

[Glazourz9]

@creamsodaboy Yeah I can Still play it on Moprscape but put it on 2D Graphics

[Glazourz9]

@creamsodaboy Yeah I can Still play it on Moprscape but put it on 2D Graphics

[Glazourz9]

@creamsodaboy Yeah I can Still play it on Moprscape but put it on 2D Graphics

[Glazourz9]

@creamsodaboy Yeah I can Still play it on Moprscape but put it on 2D Graphics

[NeoGen89]

Re you kidding me? 130 million players? or 130 million accounts? There is a HUGE difference, you know?

[falconsstrike]

Guiness Book of World Records states: "The worlds most popular free MMO: RuneScape. With over 150 million active players and more than a billion active accounts." Think that's clear enough?

[Elvendur]

@NeoGen89

The current player count is 67,911.

[Strangenaab]

omg all u noobs suck runescape was rly hard 2 play it took loads of praktise nd skil 2 play, jst bcuz u had gud geer dsnt mean you were da best bcuz u had food nd about 3 different fuckin hell i cant go on, runescape was good, but now it's shit and you cant deny it. i'd rather play wow than runescape (i quit a year ago)

[finamagig]

then why are you watching runescape videos?

[TheElectricalDonkey]

@Strangenaab

You said "runescape was rly hard 2 play it took loads of praktise nd skil 2 play"

It also takes alot of "Praktise" and "skil" to SPEAK ENGLISH !?

[meesees]

darkmage022AQW i agree with you cuz i dont have my own computer its parents i can download any games thats why i like it is cool!!only cool 3D browser game i think and hope!

[darkmage022AQW]

RUNESCAPE IS AWESOME!!!

only 3D game which doesnt need download

[thechangs]

still looks bad :/ we should at least be able to see the characters eyes

[K4inan]

I love this trailer :) I mean seriously, THESE graphics without ANY installation! No cd no NOTHING. Compare the graphics of RuneScape High Detail compared to other online games you can play for free... It's like Comparing Crysis in full detail and Zelda ocarina of time :)

[K4inan]

I think they estimated that at least everyone who has played runescape, spent 100 hours on it before quitting :)

[wdef99]

@K4inan lol ether 100 hours of playing be for thy quit or thy get banded =)

[yeoatlad]

ruinscape

[b3stgl1tch3r]

[loganscape]

just earlier today i was playing rs classic and watching this video I'm amazed runescape graphics have come a long way

[elfrunescape]

[valy225]

[AbdullahBen10]

[TheWouterxxx]

[Lemonaderz]

You have to all remmeber, Runescapes graphics are still absolute shite.. rofllll

If your computer can't play this game with max'd settings.. i think it's time for an upgrade

[Rubyscrapped]

Bad mistake... So many players quit.

[NLglennNL]

i still miss the old graphics caus it reminds me of the good time i had on runescape pking skilling etc. :P

[matthewzzxc]

wow your really really good do you work for runescape? and if you dont why not? they must love you for this!! its cool good job and thank you =D

[trust1406]

I like the old graphics, but the game looks much beter now.

[Tillatuz]

Get a life then..

[blkcnzproductions]

if you quit a game because of the graphics you are sad, runescape is still awsome..no matter what graphics, so people complaining about wanting old graphics back, no ones gunna change it back for u...so stfu

[Lemonaderz]

Runescape graphics are still embarassing

[darkwonder80]

i liked the old rs!

[dieall37]

well ur in luck today

[pivottiMies]

R.I.P RuneScape old graphics its good time and funny :( but HD isn't not bad.

[batmankid45]

lol yeah i liked the old graphics they were kind of funny

[NLglennNL]

@batmankid45 yeah and specially the rules. :D wilderness etc. i still miss the old graphics caus it reminds me of the good time i had on runescape pking skilling etc. :P

[DiaryOfTheDuck]

played this game what?

4-5 years now.. nd i sware it just gets harder and harder to level

[WTCHME]

Gets easier imo.

[idcdammit]

lol its much easier to level now than it was 5 years ago.

I think you mean it takes more exp between levels as they get higher, which is true.

[Redknight345]

Yeah these people that started during 2008 need to play rsc thats right now launched again, thats hard as fuck.

[pipstaring]

i miss old graphics lol
