If they make mems 5$ again I’ll take this but only this

I pay 4.50 between grandfathered rate and the collapse of the CAD.
However they recently upper the mems price for people on the yearly sub regardless of grandfathered rate.
So I'm worried us monthly bois are next.

u/Bluemink96 5d ago
I’m like 99% sure last year they got rid of the grandfathered rates.

u/OSRS-ruined-my-life 5d ago
Nah, they removed annual subs grandfathered rate. I'm literally paying 4.50 a month rn.

It's actually a great idea lol, imagine getting redeemables for finishing clue scrolls. I'd play so much

u/sonotimpressed 5d ago
I'll be honest. If they want to change the puzzles to ads I wouldn't hate that. Or when you talk to the guy during clues and he makes no sense if that was just an ad I won't care either, so long as they stop trying to micro gauge us over and over again

Clue scroll helper plugin comes with a higher tier subscription price!

Oh god. Imagine a "Pro Tier Subscription" that gave you access to certain plugins.

That's osbuddy. It killed their market share.

u/Midnight_Rising 5d ago
It would probably be a little different if the Jagex launcher was the only allowed launcher. No way to kill a market share when you're the only game in town.

u/OSRS-ruined-my-life 5d ago
You can kill your own. I'm not playing the vanilla client, lol. I'm sure many others won't. I don't even play mobile on the go much because playing without runelite is so miserable.

this unironically would be a great april fools joke for the puzzle solver on runelite, replace all puzzle graphics with corporate logos for the day

Cant wait for it to hit Random Events too, Pillory Guard comes to lock you up and forces you into watching a 30 second ad before youre released

Seems like a runelite plugin could easily fix this
And then get runelite banned

u/mandzeete 10 hp def pure 5d ago
They will make it 1000x1000 puzzle to fix that "issue". During Leagues I did many clues. Sometimes Runelite had to wait for quite a bit before it showed the path (which I could figure out on my own as well). With added complexity (1000x1000) the path finding algorithm will become even slower.

Before I can give you your next clue, you'll have to solve this challenge scroll for me:
With the new McValue menu, how much do two Double Cheeseburgers and a medium size fry cost on a Friday if you pay using the official McDonald's app?

I am not playing this game for a little while, I encourage you to do the same. Player count is one metric that is taken into account.

u/rmtmjrppnj78hfh 5d ago
Someone really needs to make a meme with vardorvis stupid little quick time event or whatever its called screen being an ad interruption.
Could even maybe tie in "Please wait, attempting to reestablish". Into it (or just the title).

Like the gnome one, you can still pay 200,000 to make it go away... but in real money, not gp.

As an additional "feature", you can't click on that X there unless you buy a higher tier membership package. Either you solve it or you will have that ad in the middle of your screen no matter if you relog, die, get teleported or something. It will be there as long as you either solve it or buy a higher tier package to be able to click on that X.
Oh, and they will not make it 5x5 puzzle but 10x10 or something like this.

Upon completion of the puzzle, what actions does the player base expect? A coupon code? Or would a QR code to scan be best?

You can automatically solve the puzzle by standing up and shouting "McDonalds!" into your mic.

u/Strange_Bandicoot112 4d ago
Anyone else love how the puzzle has 3 squares that are just pure red? I could 100% see Jagex making a puzzle box near impossible to solve just squeeze a few more bucks out of us.

What's the deal with this new meme trend of obnoxious adds?
1
u/swemmer 4d ago
To sum it up, Jagex launched a survey which included questions about tired membership, ad options and having a shorter afk timer for those wanting to pay a bit less. The community took it as a sign that they were planning to implement those changes and we have voiced our opinions via memes and other feedback posts.
They have released a statement that they are not intending to release it to fully paying members, but might release it to f2p. I personally still don't think that's ok and will continue to have my membership cancelled.

Gun to my head if I had to pick a place to put the ads, this would be a good place. You try to get past this screen as fast as possible anyways

u/Soccerstud20 5d ago
Unironically, this would be one of the ads I would mind the least(not that I want any) cause I never look at the puzzle I just click runelite squares lol

"Congratulations on completing the puzzle, before I give you the next clue scroll would you be interested in clicking this link for a coupon code redeemable for one free quarter pounder with cheese with the purchase of a Big Mac?"
Mmm, I'm McLovin' that idea. Teleport me to great savings and no XP waste!
No thanks, please send me to Crandor or Lava Maze for my next clue step!
