RuneScape HD

Ice wolf · 07-14-2008, 10:13 AM

RuneScape just released its high definition version of the game for free players, and it is quite and improvement.

Here is a comparison of an old quality face with a new quality face:

Here are pictures of the new textures:

Here is a picture of the new graphics for water:

You can read more about the graphical improvements in these development diaries.
A New Look at RuneScape: Part 1
A New Look at RuneScape: Part 2

There is a fullscreen mode along with the new graphics, but it is still members-only.

I hope everyone investigates these new graphics. I, myself, quit RuneScape a while ago, but I will be playing some throughout the day.

wow... looks so different...

**Starshot** · 07-15-2008, 09:20 AM

Wow, and they're still doing this in Java?

I am insanely impressed.

thechild · 07-15-2008, 09:51 AM

I quit too. I played the new graphics for a little, it was okay. I gave my account to my brother who is getting me some skills to 99.

**Beethovens mask** · 07-15-2008, 09:52 AM

This is my opinion.

RSC : Amazing

RS2 : Alright

RS2 HD : Disgusting

Wineandbread · 07-15-2008, 10:14 AM

I prefer Runescape Classic graphics. x)

But really, how long does it take to load now?

**hoochan** · 07-15-2008, 12:37 PM

I don't understand why people complain about the graphics. This game is based on the gameplay, not how good you look during the gameplay...

Now, while playing RS, it's just going to be laggier for me. YAY ;_;

IAAW · 07-15-2008, 12:58 PM

Makes me want to play again to see how graphics-wise RSHD is. I shouldn't have any problems running it, even though I got crappy Intel graphics cards and all that ****.

**Mr.Nothing** · 07-15-2008, 01:40 PM

lol runescape.

this game will never stop being stupid.

xinpig · 07-15-2008, 02:02 PM

I do agree that RS is stupid. WoW FTW!

**Starshot** · 07-15-2008, 02:10 PM

I don't think you guys realize how substantial this is.

This is Sun Java we're talking here. It's a rudimentary web application software. They're pushing this software to places where the original creators never even dreamed of.

Which would be awesome if it weren't for it being made by Jagex.
The creator is a moron, and it hasn't changed a great amount since it came out.

**syzergy** · 07-15-2008, 02:30 PM

HA im a member too lol.

I think its a nice addition to the game makes it a lot more better and fun to play.

Thugzluv200 · 07-15-2008, 02:34 PM

Yea i used to be highly addicted to lol, untill i got banned for talking about msn lol, im still not unbanned for some odd reason, i wasnt doin to bad either, 1500+ total i think.

Zamiax · 07-15-2008, 06:39 PM

It seems as if they are taking it one step at a time. First classic then then RS2 now HD, next might possibly be close to WoW graphics.... ehh who knows.

**phe0nixblade** · 07-15-2008, 06:44 PM

You people who just came here to insult the game need to kill yourselves. Seriously, "oh runescaep lul lts go here and insult it". If you see a thread about something you don't like, what the HELL is the point of going there just to post about how bad you think it is? We, don't, care.

You still have the option of playing in low detail.

**irishknight** · 07-15-2008, 06:57 PM

Ice wolf, can you reload the pictures? They're not showing up in your OP. Talk about suspense...

EDIT: Your editions have 404 alerts.

Ice wolf · 07-15-2008, 07:09 PM

I took out all the pictures and added links to higher quality versions.

Too bad they don't work.

Please tell me I'm not the only one this is happening to.

EDIT: Ah, forget it. I'll just look at the site instead.
