However, after many players suggested it, Mod Stevew, a Jagex Moderator, added a new sticky thread to the Forum Feedback forum allowing players to sign if they wish to have access, provided that their account is an RSC account. Many players missed this thread and therefore they were denied access. This was due to a number of problems, one being that Jagex simply decided that RuneScape Classic's upkeep imposed a heavy cost on hosting the servers, since it is no longer updated.īefore Jagex closed the RSC forums, they had a thread running for a few months on the RSC General forum asking players to sign if they wanted to keep on using the forums. On 15 January 2006, only players who had logged in between 4 August 2005 and 15 January 2006 could play RuneScape Classic, meaning that members could not access RSC unless they had logged in within that time frame. Jagex claimed this was largely due to the free version being mainly used to break rules. On 4 August 2005, Jagex discontinued and closed down the free version of RuneScape Classic it remained accessible for many years for Members. The same account was used for both games but items, progress and skills remained separate. Eventually this was disabled permanently and whatever items were left, remained on one game or the other. During the first month of RuneScape 2, all stats were copied from RSC to RS2 and players were able to transfer items at various points between both games. This update would later become known as RuneScape 2, which would be released on 29 March 2004, with the official game officially being renamed to RuneScape Classic, with a decreased number of servers still being active. On 11 June 2002, Jagex announced a new, "much faster" 3D game engine for RuneScape. After much success, RuneScape was open to everyone after the Gower brothers decided to maintain and build upon their already existent business. The game was renamed to Runescape in the process. In October 1999, Andrew enlisted the help of his brothers, Ian and Paul, to rewrite the game. Later, seven months after the initial development of DeviousMUD, an open beta was announced for those who wished to play the Java-based game straight from their computer. He created the platform solely based upon Java-dependent computing and 2D graphics. I never did get much into RSC.DeviousMUD, the precursor to RuneScape Classic, and the forefather of RuneTek, was created and developed by Andrew Gower some time in 1998. Sounds like this may actually get a little popular. RE: Runescape Classic (Open Source replica) - Hell Nova - 05-20-2019 So, a replica of the early game - but slightly cleaned up would be nice. Then to make a few whiners happy, Jagex babyfied the game too much to keep everybody happy. I loved the wild-wild-west style RuneScape back when I started in 2001. RE: Runescape Classic (Open Source replica) - W13 - 04-14-2019 I can't really help with the discussion since I didn't start playing since 2006 but I think it's a good thing you're doing to try and recreate eras of the game people used to love, especially since Jagex no longer offers them. I've gone ahead and moved this into General Discussion for you where I think it's better suited. RE: Runescape Classic (Open Source replica) - Wee Man - 04-09-2019 RE: Runescape Classic (Open Source replica) - Saddam - 04-08-2019 Simply looking to drum up some discussion, share old memories and screenshots, and gather info to help for our project. I am hoping this does not come across as an advertisement If you have any memories, please post here or come join us in Discord or in game We also have plans for restorations of the older builds of the game, such as a 2001 build that would emulate the game when it was possible to PK everywhere. It is open source, and available to anybody to inspect, branch from, etc The game shut down officially in 2018 but we are working on a replica build of the game called "Open RSC" I am looking for old (and new) Runescape Classic players Runescape Classic (Open Source replica) - Runescape Classic - 03-28-2019 +- Thread: Runescape Classic (Open Source replica) ( /showthread.php?tid=448) +- RuneScape Community Forums (since 2001) ( ) Runescape Classic (Open Source replica) - Printable Version
