It seems Jagex is acting according to the statement made: More interaction with fan-sites. This picture is Jagex artwork on Mechscape, released to mechschapeworld.com

Is that a first????

I doubt i'll play Mechscape much, if at all, apart from perhaps just to see how well Jagex have worked on it.
I'm very interested in it's development though, want to see how Jagex perform in a different Genre of Gaming

I haven't really looked into it. I doubt I will play it that much. I'll give it a try, but will most probably stick with RS

I got an Error 404.

Me to

Just click on News and it'll be there at the top

I don't like this because it means they'll probably start to abandon RuneScape.

I still want to see how it works out.

serious
why the hell would they abandon a milk cow
do any of the big gamign companys drop their other games when they publish a new game???

personally i'm going to try it for at least a month (as member)
see what it gives

maybe I keep playing, maybe I don't

'Get your mech on'
...original tagline much?

I will play both obviously, but I already find Runescape less challenging than it was so I will probrably play Mechscape more.

I also bet sal has been rang up by jagex.

If your bored, Try it if is cool.. but i think its going to be released in 2014

They haven't abandoned RuneScape when they started FunOrb. Why would they do when they start MechScape?

~It is Instinct

I plan to play MS, the genre is more my style.

Also, I think that if Jagex mods start getting out in the community and they start to take note of their loyal players on the fansites then the game will improve, just have a look at our suggestions forum and imagine the best being picked over by J Mods

They're going to get sued for that.

I"m probably not going to play MechScape, it looks too graphic-intense for my computer.

Interesting to see they're actually working on MechScape.

That's a nice piece of artwork.
I wonder if MechScape will have anything to do with the story of RuneScape.
Anyway, like Gogs, I doubt I will play MechScape as much as I play RuneScape.

Personally, as one who will probably play mechscape instead of RS when it comes out (MS is more my genre), I can say this looks good. What I really want is a look at the characters or npcs in mechscape, since the only ones on the Mechscape site jagex works with are for Warhammer 40k.

I'll play if they release it. I hope the gaphics look like runescape.

Basically that is my stance too: Play for a certain period of time and see what it is like. As for this:

Not very likely since it will use the same game-engine RS uses.

One more thing: MechScape has been in development for at least 2 years. Now wonder about this: 32m turnover per year. Roughly 14m gross profit. Basically it means the RS turnover is enough to get MS developed. Nice company, wish I had shares in it.

Hrum, I can't decide on membership for MS, on one hand I lasted for years as a freeplayer but on the other hand I'd still be a member for fear of wasting my money when MS comes out.

I'll most likely buy members for it just to have it.

I have RS and Funorb already even though I seldom use my funorb members

What is MechScape???

Jagex's new game they're developing

Not completely abandon RuneScape, but there will possibly be a smaller number of staff that work on runescape. This means less updates, less good content (< Especially for non-members).

And quite a lot of gaming companies drop old games. Nintendo have games come and go every time they make a new console.

No. They have a completely new set of teams to work on MechScape - people haven't been moved to work in MechScape, they got new people. Same number (if not more) of people working on RuneScape, so same amount of updates etc.

I'll most likely try this out, I don't dare judge a game I know nothing about. In the end though, I'll probably just stick with RuneScape, I'm a lot more into the time line there than sci-fi games.

Who knows, it might be a good game. We'll see later on. Amazing artwork though.

I ope this isn't true but, if MechScape has better details, we might need to download it. I hope not. God knows I have too much clutter in Disc C already.

more than one race?
Like human NPC Mech=some stuff aren't human
that means you can probably choose race ROCK ON

Gnomes, Elves, Dwarves, Ents, Orcs, Fairies, Ogres, Trolls and many other races exist in RS and you can't choose your race.

If they discontinue Runescape and focus on Mechscape... boy I'm going to be incredibly pissed at Jagex tbh.

~Darth

No offense but isn;t this just going to end up as one of those big expansion projects, which always fail for games and restraunts and shops alike? I hope it's not because that means jagex will fail and no more rs

Mechscape looks way too sci-fi-ish for my tastes, so I doubt I'll play.

You do realize the chances of this are incredibly minuscule, right? If RuneScape has made them so much money, why would they stop it?

The chances are actually zero at the moment, if you read the Q&A updates.

I don't like the artwork style. I will probably not play it.

Wait, there's artwork?!
