Two Updates for the Price of One?

Yesterday saw the release of two updates into runescape. One I was highly excited about and the other one……. let us just say that it could have been a little bit better.

The staff finally gave us the database. Finally, I will be able to check the price of my runes and see when I should sell them. They even a stock exchange style setup, meaning you not only see the visual trend via graph but you also see how the items raised or dropped with a percent. It is very user friendly but the only issue is that it is still in beta but I think it will move along well. It even displays when it is out of date so that it will not cause an error in anyone that wants to predict prices.

The second update is kind of disappointing in my opinion. While treasure trails are fun, adding 50 new clues but adding rewards that are purely aesthetic and offer no bonuses in the ways of combat. If you add something like that, please give us some decently high level item (the black crossbow does not count by the way).

Overall, the updates are good. The GE update is particularly helpful in making purchasing choices while the treasure trails don’t offer anything too spectacular, they fo add new items to the market. Next week…… hopefully our new quest. Stay tuned for a review of it.

    Yeh Vampirelo609 rules!!!!!!!!!!!! Although I think the top hat is secretly the best weapon in the game. You can throw it like that guy in Jame’s Bond.

    I’m not sure why I said Jame’s Bond instead of just James Bond.

  3. Yeah, the database is awesome. And it is perfectly fine that it is beta – Google does it all the time and it is a good strategy. Less complains about bugs and more freedom in implementing immediate users feedback.

    And thank you for linking my blog :-)
