Who here hates the new tutorial island I DO
for those of youwho have not done it yet I really would not suggest making a new character just to see this update was really that bad but of course I amone of the people who think that you should be able to bypass the tutorial by pressing the I am an experienced player so go take a long walk off a short pier Jagex.

This update was just that bad really I could not believe they did this Jagex said that doing the tutrial in a more quest like manner would make a person learn more well I do not know about this it almost makes me want to say go to hell jagex I do not want to play runescape anymore if these are the kind of updates you are going to release more and more first the wildy then the insult of BH now the new tut island now i am sad and are going to close thise down.

lol its not even an island its a cave and luimbridge

I know but it is a horrible thing in the world that should have been drug around the side of the world and beaten to death with a exetremly blunt and small object.

The new fish should be pretty good though. Crayfish. The fishing spot is close to lumbridge, so a death walk is easy, it's great for pwoerfishing.

But it would be horrifiying to do 4 characters through that huge tutorial. And i mean, the chaos druid fires a EARTH WAVE towards me and I get hit 2? What's the logic in that?

I hate it, I dont understand how it works :(

Me neither :(

I guess they think making it harder to do tut island will cut down on autoing armies making autoing less? =/

me neither also :) :(

They would be right anyway, it has killed all tut runners.

From a legit players stand point I like it. I thought it was kind of fun and creative and a good move on Jagex's part.

But from an autoers stand point I don't like it. It seems almost impossible/extremely hard to make a script to run this.

I just wish that jagex would alow a skip tutorial button because this is horribly horrible

It is really easy to do, but it sucks:p
Just read the messages/text or follow the arrows^^
But it sucks, a lot of watching a dumb guy trying to kill a dumb dragon xD

PvH

its funny how tut island is still on the map but it is not being used any more lol

Honestly, Jagex doesn't give a shit if you quit, so yeah… as long as you do not have 10k member accounts who are in active membership, they do not care what you do.

I like it, because it makes powerfishing a bit easier. It also is a good update and really makes RS look good through the new player's eyes.

Working on a tutorial island/thing at the moment. Gotten to the part where it goes up the stairs for the first time. Should be done by the end of next week at the latest. ;)

i don't like it…they should give you the option of bypassing and increase the rewards of completing. That way newbies would still do it for the equipment but the seasoned tutorial veterans wouldn't have to spend an hour to run 1 player through. I also imagine that this would be difficult to write a script for? Not a good scripter by the broadest definition, but i can't see how a script could work reliably here.

I know they do not care about me but again they are going to cut through a client base that they need

well if you can make a good working tutorial island script then you should submit it into srl member aplication and i would definatly vote

but if you made one and it messes up most of the time (like the others did when there was the old tutorial island) then you could probably still submit it because of the code

although if you can make one then you should be good at scripting and if you are then why havent you already submitted?

True.

Haven't made many good scripts in Pascal as of yet. However, I have made a few in C++/Java. Like said, I have finished the first part of the script and it is working. However, I have seen that I have finished it in an inefficient manner and am redoing a large part of it. (Using DTMs, etc.)

Knowing how to use another programming language efficiently seriously helps your learning of other languages.

Also, in regards to the script I am making: I have projected releasing it 10 days or so from now. That should give me plenty of time to make it/test it/etc. Sure, it will need improvements. But honestly, what wouldn't? ;)

~Macro

hey macro if you need help at lall testing before release I would be happy to oblidge

So am I :)

see i never knew there was a new tutorial island, but when my borther made another account we figured it out, and i hate it! It takes so much longer to finished, it would be really nice to have a script for that.

Lol. When the hell did they get a new tut island?

yes totaly agree with that every time u need a new char u can run the entire tut again takes lot of time i bet all veteran player hate to play the tut over and over again :mad: only if they want a new char i think it is almost inposible to run a script for this cause it is so overcrowded all the time and some things are different all over like the chaos druit who hits you with blast i hope maby someone can find a solution for all this some day
