Runescape

Runescape is a game about MMORPG and 3D characters and things that fly around and pets and skills. There are skills you can train and then rate them against a highscore list and put them up on zybez and that way you can join a community and make a friends and then talk with them on general discussion, questions, RSC, clans, and the off topic section, and then cover it all up with a blanket and quests. There are many quests and some of them involve dragons and crandor isle and varrock and falador and ardougne there are many cities and people and NPCs.

We think that Runescape is a game about skill but it is actually a game about time and MMORPGs. fantasy and SCi-Fi but that is mechscape do you know what i amean? No? It's okay let me tell you a story about a Runescape player called NPC and his newb friends. They moved to varrock and then started up on a quest to go and solve a quest. They went to varrock and found aht eshield of arrav from the king and black arm gang and they found crossbows.

Crossbows are found upstairs and they can be traded to the prank and bolts shop for coins and archery supplies. We don't need to speculate on training skills because all that matters is a bunch of money that you can gain by selling the stupid crossbows to the archery supplies shop.

Some skills are easy to train like mining all you have to do is click and keep clicking on the rock and wait for stuff to appear in the inventory. Sometimes you got to be careful about things loike rock demons because they are higher leveled than you and will take you many strikes.

Other skills like smithing are quite easy asl well. We just walk over to the furnace and we smelt our ores into the fire. Then we get metal bars from which you can make weapons to wield There are requirements for smithing level and combat level to make and acquire weapons. You can't wield a weapon if your skills is not high enough and you can't smith a bar into weapons if your smithing level is too low but you can sell the weapon if you dont or can't wield the weapon.

Combat level matters because there are slills that dictate the combat level which can range to like 135. Defense and Strength can be 99 and this is just a page for you know what.

World of Warcraft - Fans go crazy about Wrath of the Lich King

Fans go mad for new Warcraft game
By Jim Reed
Newsbeat technology reporter

World of Warcraft makes more money than the biggest Hollywood blockbusters every single month, has 11 million players and controls two thirds of the online gaming market, so when an expanded version was released, fans turn up in droves to be the first to get their hands on it.

World of Warcraft is more than just a game - it's a whole industry, selling everything from action figures to t-shirts, playing cards and even tickets to its own gaming festival.

Thousands of fans dressed in costume and queued overnight in central London to be the first to get their hands on the latest chapter in the saga, an update called Wrath of the Lich King.

"It's just a big social gaming experience," according to Paul Sams at Blizzard, the American company behind World of Warcraft.

"When we first started this back in the early 2000s, we thought it was going to be quite a niche type of game. We hoped to hit a million subscribers one day," he told Newsbeat.

"It's been far beyond anything we could have imagined. We all want to be heroes, but we can't in our everyday life.

"There were games before World of Warcraft but they were much more hardcore and that was quite intimidating for many people.

"We've worked really hard to try to make a really casual ramping of difficulty. So no matter what kind of thing you are in to, you are able to jump in and experience all of it."

The features built into the new expansion pack might not sound like much to non-fans.

Players can access a new frozen continent called Northrend, level strength has been raised from the current max of 70 up to 80, new vehicles and siege engines appear for the first time, an achievement ranking makes it easier to track your progress and gamers can play as a new character called a Death Knight.

But for hardcore World of Warcraft players, these small changes are a huge deal.

"I'm really looking forward to exploring the Northrend area. It's the same graphics engine but they've done a good job of making it look different," 26-year-old gamer Lesley Harrison told Newsbeat.

Lesley has been playing online games together with her husband Mark since they were married six years ago.

"World of Warcraft is very polished and very accessible," she said.

"There were other games out before but they were so unforgiving and quirky. The interfaces were very hard to learn and there was a lot to get past before you could enjoy the game.

"With World of Warcraft you can sit down and on your first day you can get to some exciting content. That's pretty unique."

Lesley and Mark have their computers set up side-by-side in the front room.

Mark told Newsbeat: "It would be really difficult if Lesley didn't play. It takes hours to do some things in World of Warcraft, so it's easy for the other person to get bored if they're not involved."

Lesley added: "We share different duties so if one of us is in the middle of something, the other one will go and make the tea. I don't think that would be appreciated if we didn't play together."

But with the average WoWer spending around 25 hours a week on the game, other couples are not so lucky.

More than 3,000 people have joined an online support group called Warcraft Widows for relatives of addicted gamers.

"My wife started playing in 2007," according to one post. "She plays 12-18 hours a day and ignores all other life.

"She refuses to answer the phone. She refuses to return emails. I am destroyed by a video game and have no idea how to proceed."

That kind of dedication has helped make World of Warcraft one of the biggest money-spinners in gaming history.

It costs £9 a month subscription to keep playing the game online

Customers must buy the £24.99 disc to begin with and then pay a £9 a month subscription to keep playing online.

With 11 million registered users, it's not hard to see just how much money Blizzard is making every month.

It's also no surprise that rival online titles from Runescape to Lord of the Rings Online and Star Wars Galaxies have been fighting hard for some of that lucrative business.

But with a 60% market share, World of Warcraft already has a huge advantage over its rivals.

"There are a lot of people who want to go and play other games," said Lesley.

"They go but their friends just aren't there. They end up coming back to World of Warcraft even if the other game was perhaps better in their eyes. Friends are 90% of the fun. "

Hollywood has been eyeing the rise of online gaming suspiciously.

If millions of young gamers are spending 25 hours+ a week playing World of Warcraft then chances are they are not out at the multiplex watching the latest action movie.

But in a true case of 'if you can't beat them, join them', rumours are rife that a blockbuster World of Warcraft movie is on the way.

The film is said to be set a year before the events of the game and will focus on an all-new hero figure.

No director has been named so far but the budget has been set at $100m (£67m).

Or less than Blizzard earns from World of Warcraft subscriptions in a single month.

World of Warcraft - The name of the game

The name of the game is World of Warcraft and is played by millions for plat and gold. It is totally unfair when it comes to buying and selling accounts because it happens anyways. We at globalgaminghq respect the World of Warcraft enough to say that it is a good game nonetheless.

Computers of the Future

We know where we are in the world of computers. We have operating systems and harddrives. We have processors and RAM. Now there's talk of virtualization, which is a very old idea originating in the 60's. In fact, most of the research and definitions were done in the early 70s. So people are saying we'll have thin-clients (again, like the main-frame days) and everything will be downloaded from a cloud.

What do I think? First of all, let's drop down the barriers. C: drive. Let's get rid of the idea of "drives". The data can go wherever it wants to go. Operating systems. Get rid of them. Applications. What are they? Folders. They don't exist anymore. Files. Gone. Now, what are we left with? A humming processor. Feel it. Feel the processor. Feel the electrons move around inside it. Sense the heat from the friction of the electrons. Now, you're ready to think outside the box. Invent a system of storing data. Let's call it the "data house". Now you can store bits and bytes onto the hard-drive using your data house. Then, feel free to invent a system of accessing that data and organizing it for the user. Let's call this the "organizing system", let's call it "O.S." for short. ... wait. ... D'oh!

Runescape - Hallowe'en Event and Quest

Runescape - Hallowe'en Event and Quest

 

Maggie, a travelling witch, has come to southern Asgarnia for the holiday festivities, but she's in a bit of a spot. She needs an enchanted broom to finish her potion but her ox has a cold and can't be left alone. In Swept Away, you'll need to visit several nearby witches on Maggie's behalf – and solve a few puzzles along the way.

While you're in the neighbourhood, why not try out the Holiday Event: a bit of trick-or-treating in Draynor, Rimmington and Port Sarim. The towns are decked out in holiday décor and the villagers have treats to distribute to those wearing a suitable costume. If you're interested in some holiday garb, have a chat with Maggie: she's on the look-out for someone who can do a bit of trick-or-treating on her behalf.

Swept Away can be started by talking to Maggie, who is located south of Falador and east of the Crafting Guild. The quest will be available to all players for two weeks; after this time, it will only be available to members. The Hallowe'en decorations and trick-or-treating will only be available during the same holiday period. Any treats remaining in your bank or inventory after this time will disappear after Hallowe'en.

In other news...

A large number of sound effects and changes to sound effects have been added, especially to capes and the skillcape emotes.

Human animations have been extensively modified to stop players appearing to glide around. You should also notice less 'clipping' with items like capes and armour when performing various actions or using emotes.

When you're dismissing a familiar, you can now right-click on the 'Dismiss' button. This will let you skip the confirmation screen, making it easier to dismiss the familiar during combat.

Fairy rings now have a larger clickable area. Previously, it was quite small and potentially difficult to click on, so we've enlarged it to make your journeys quicker.

Adding items to fill up compost bins should now be considerably easier. When you've used one item on the bin, your character will automatically attempt to put any further items of that type into the bin, saving you a bit of clicking.

Metarialus and Blandebir (the brewing chaps in Port Phasmatys and Keldagrim) will now offer to fill all your pots with yeast at once rather than making you go through their conversation for each pot. Using one beer glass on a barrel of freshly brewed beer will also make your character attempt to fill all their beer glasses without any additional clicking, and there's a newly installed water source in the brewery at Port Phasmatys.

Bounty Hunter Combat levels have been updated to reflect recent Combat level changes. The crater entrance requirements are now: 3-55, 50-100 and 95+ (all without Summoning).

Dragon dagger p++ should now be easier to find on the Grand Exchange. We've also taken the opportunity to change some adamant items to use "addy" at the start. This is only for the super poisoned items, namely arrows, daggers and spears.

QuickChat has now been given a predictive search feature to allow you to find the phrases you want more effectively.

A distant rumble has recently been heard just north of Baxtorian Waterfall...

To Start: Talk to Captain Rovin.

Talk to Captain Rovin, he will tell you that Hartwin has seen an army of zombies at the Runescape Graveyard of Shadows. 

Note: Read the Runescape Legend of Arrav in the Runescape Lores and Histories if you wish to get a better understanding of the Runescape storyline of the Runescape quest. 

 

While Hartwin is following you, head to the Runescape Graveyard of Shadows, located just west of the Runescape Clan Wars lobby. Talk to him when you get the Runescapere. He will tell you that the Runescapere was an army. You will notice the Runescape zombie tracks. 

Note: You may also use a games necklace to teleport straight to the Runescape Clans Wars lobby. From the Runescapere on, head west to the Runescape graveyard. 

 

Inspect the Runescape bushes and trees nearby to uncover the Runescape tracks, just as you would in hunting kebbits. In one of the Runescape trees, you will find a grubby key. 

 

Keep inspecting objects until you notice that the Runescape footpaths end at the Runescape Chaos Altar. 

Use the Runescape Grubby key to unlock and open the Runescape trapdoor behind the Runescape altar. 

 

As you go down the Runescape trapdoor, you will see a lot of zombies. On the Runescape eastern side of the Runescape tunnel, you will notice the Runescape option "Look-over balcony". Choose it and you will see a cut scene with 3 Mahjarrats and Arrav. 

 

Go a little west and grab 3 Bottles. You now need to start killing the Runescape zombies. Use the Runescape bottles on the Runescape red mist the Runescapey emit upon death. You need 3 Bottles of mist in order to go through the Runescape next door. Anothe Runescaper cut scene occurs, featuring Arrav. 

 

Once the Runescape cut scene has ended, you must kill 3 more zombies and collect the Runescapeir red mist. Proceed through the Runescape next door and look over the Runescape balcony for anothe Runescaper cut scene. After the Runescape cut scene, Hartwin will give you a Varrock teleport tablet and ask you to speak to Captain Rovin. 

 

Teleport to Varrock and talk to Captain Rovin. He will ask you to talk to Thurgo, south of Port Sarim. 

Make your way to Thurgo's hut south of Port Sarim and talk to him. He will tell you to go to Camdozaal, the Runescape Imcando Dwarf Hall under Ice Mountain. He will give you a scrap of paper with coordinates, which shows you the Runescape location. 

Note: If you have not acquired a Blurite ore prior to starting the Runescape quest, we advise you to mine an ore in the Runescape Blurite dungeon, located east of Thurgo. 

 

Head to the Runescape White Tree on top of the Runescape Ice Mountain and dig just to the Runescape east of it. You will dig a hole out of the Runescape snow. Use your pickaxe with the Runescape churned-up snow to mine the Runescape rubble. Enter the Runescape hole and crawl to Camdozaal. 

 

Talk to Ramarno, the Runescape sage of the Runescape Imcando dwarves. He will tell you that he will help you unlock the Runescape power of the Runescape Shield of Arrav, but only if you can smith. 

Note: If you give Ramarno a Redberry pie, you will receive 1K Smithing XP. 

 

Use the Runescape Blurite ore with the Runescape Sacred Forge. Talk to Ramarno, so that he can work his magic that will unlock the Runescape power of the Runescape shield. You will see a cut scene with Traiborn, Queen Ellamaria, Fenkenstrain's Monster, the Runescape Wise Old Man, and Zamouregal talking to you outside of the Runescape Forge. 

 

Teleport back to Varrock. As you approach the Runescape palace, you will see the Runescape zombie invasion. Talk to Captain Rovin and he will give you the Runescape restored Shield of Arrav and tell you to look in the Runescape library for its descendants. 

 

Head to the Runescape library and talk to Reldo. Read the Runescape list lying on the Runescape floor. the Runescape List of elders includes the Runescape following descendants: 

Romeo

Juliet

Draul Leptoc (Juliet's Fathe Runescaper)

Horvik the Runescape Blacksmith

Curator Haig Halen

King Roald

Sir Prysin

Aenoisig Raispher (King Roald's advisor)

Gontamue

 

Talk to each one of the Runescape descendants. One of the Runescapese people will tell you that the Runescape next person in the Runescapeir bloodline was married to someone with the Runescape surname of Fitzharmon. Read the Runescape Varrock Census back at the Runescape library to realize that this person is referring to Diminthe Runescapesis. 

Note: the Runescape person who will tell you about Diminthe Runescapesis differs from player to player. 

 

Speak to Diminthe Runescapeis, next to the Runescape Fancy Dress shop. You will see a cut scene of all the Runescape zombies being defeated by Diminthe Runescapeis with the Runescape Shield of Arrav. 

 

Head back to Captain Rovin to receive your reward.

Runescape Quest: defender of varrock

The Defender of Varrock Quest Guide for Runescape was the best I've ever done. it was fun and it involved the story of the shield of arrav and the rest of the varrock shens. 

I'll be playing Runescape some more when I do this quest on my other character.
