"What about second Game Jam?"Yep, it’s been Jam week and the JMods have been busy working on future projects, so this will be a pretty light update! Let’s take a look ahead to our upcoming murder mystery quest, plus Treasure Hunter, community updates and all the rest…
A new quest is just around the corner, and it all starts with foul play at Fort Forinthry… Are you ready to solve the "Murder on the Border"?
This one is an homage to classic RuneScape quests, with a spicy whodunnit twist! Start honing those detective skills folks, because this juicy crime caper will be making its way to a fort near you onMarch 20th.You’ll also need to have set up at Fort Forinthry and built a Tier 1 Workshop, Chapel, Command Centre and Town Hall - so check the newspost for guidance if you’ve not started New Foundations yet
Stay tuned for more details on Murder On The Border next week.
Hot on the heels of the previous game jam projects that launched last week, the JMods have been back in experimentation mode, and they're coming up with all sorts of exciting ideas for future updates! Things are just getting started, so expect more news on the outcome of these sessions soon.
As a tantalising taster for some of the projects in this Game Jam, check out Mod Sponge's ambitious plan to update tooltips, and Mod Daze's idea to enhance some of the Clan interfaces!
We're conducting some planned maintenance to all world servers on March 7th. This work is expected to take approximately 90 minutes and will begin at 10:00 AM Game Time. This will affect both RuneScape and OldSchool.
Starts March 7th | Ends March 8th | Genies Wishes
Be careful what you wish for... you might just get it! Find Karima in your chest to have your wish come true, or enhance your next wish for even greater rewards. This time around, you won't even need to find Karima after claiming a wish to get start on your next wish!
Starts March 9th | Ends March 13th | Double Dragon Chest
Two heads are better than one, and the same is true with double Dragon Chests! Seek out rare chests to claim the most rewards.
Wednesday March 8th | 17:00 Game Time | Designing Runescape: The Economy
It's the key to everything we do and one of the biggest challenges for designers. Join Lead Designer Mod Jack for a talk about economics in Runescape. Watch the show live on Twitch.TV/RuneScape.
This week has been devoted to Game Jam so regular work has taken a backseat while JMods develop new ideas. That means no Patch Notes this week.
However, we’ve left this section in this newspost to avoid any confusion.
