I remember awhile back when you all had Mod Mat K on the pod and he talked about this very concept (Project Zanaris)! Awesome to see it come to fruition after all of this time.
I think Rice's point was pretty spot on. I am one of said seasonal players. I'd be down for modified servers but cba to get back into the long grinds I was working on (2 RC from diary cape :D)
This project zanaris seems very promising. Can we make 2005 server for rs2? All updates after patch june 27 2005 removed. To recreate the game when it was at its peak in popularity.
I can't believe people don't WANT Zanaris and were spamming L in chat. I SUPER want to be able to pay and essentially run an MMO for my friends. I am always the one that hosts servers and events on other games, and it's awesome that an MMO is allowing that. Getting to the late game at an accelarated rate will just encourage me to keep going in the main game as well. For example, last year on Leagues I did a LOT of stuff for the first time. I beat Sins of the Father. I beat several bosses I hadn't had the skill to do in the main game. Because of the accelerated rate, I experienced content I never got to in the main game. Once Leagues ended, I went to the main game, and did the same things for real. Even if I could play a Leagues super server, I WOULD more often than not, but I would also work on the main game. Once I have "cheated" and gotten things done, I want to do it for real. I think almost everyone will have this mentality. I used to only return for Leagues specifically and that's IT, but this latest Leagues actually got me into the main game because I learned so much! If your argument is that it will siphon players from the main game, you are essentially arguing that you want others to get less value so that YOU can get more value. I'm so happy to have the option to finally play the game the way I want! They have also said in the Discord you will eventually be able to customize the map, add your own quests, and even make your own bosses. There isn't yet an example of a custom community server traditional MMO and I am SO excited to see it. I think other companies like Blizzard will eventually follow suit because of how successful Zanaris is.
outside of people making content, i think there will be like 3 servers with all of the players. i've seen custom games implemented in plenty of games and people don't want to play on dead servers
Somthing to consider with project zanaris. Is the possibility for two new groups of players returning to the game. You have the Private servers community, and the guys (like me) that are old RS2 players that doesn't have time for normal xp rates, drop rates etc. Project zanaris and mobile will hopefully open a game i loved in my children hood, back up to me. But more importantly its more members for jagex and a bigger players base. Im sure theres a bigger group of people that don't play RuneScape but have in the passed. We all know you cant quit RS. Im my opinion its target audience goes as followed. Current players>new players>retruning players.
I mean it's pretty obvious they're going to create a separate Zanaris bond that can be purchased on either the GE or with straight cash from the Jagex itself
As a returning rs player who only started osrs a few years ago, when youtube would push me private server videos early on it was hard to tell the difference and occasionally made we question if i should play , it became obvious at certain points but i can see a small section of ppl getting annoyed at watching these player servers thinking its the main game
This is just in reference to around 1hr mark can't recall exactly , we'd need a tag on streams etc Over all I'm super excited and hope we can control hp hits spawns roam radius etc
25:49 leave it to Flomple to come up with whacky banger task ideas. I mean dude came up with Kree in a Tree and CoX in a Box so i shouldn't be surprised.
Hey minty. I am rank three in your server. Can I pay you two grand to ban the rank two and one on your server? Also I am bottling but can I have a pass?
I think that the video kinda served as an intermission of sorts? Like last summit they had a break in the middle of it for some reason, and I think that's why the video felt so extended.
Zanaris, in my eyes, will just be a sandbox for a small number (eg.12) max of snowflake accounts. So they can do their thing. That's what I think it'll eventually be. I doubt they'll let people run large servers.
Zanaris is gunna be DOA. The creative people with good ideas are already youtubers, and theyre gunna make good content. The rest are gunna be silly ideas between friends that will die out in a couple weeks. Very similar to warcraft 3 custom game modes. There were a handful of good ones and thousands of junk servers made by 10 year olds. If i had to guess, this is exacrly how roblox is aswell but I wouldnt know.
im not sure how roblox servers work, but based on my experience with minecraft yes. there are the huge servers with 50k+ players online like Hypixel, but most servers are much smaller and like you said, made by 10 year olds. a good vanilla survival server will peak at 60-100 players online, and that's with a consistent and dedicated playerbase. these are all outliers tho, scroll through server lists and you'll see bad server after bad server with no players. minecraft and roblox are much larger games with fragmented playerbases based on niche baked in, there isnt the same need for a central "save file" so to speak that we all interact with.
Comparing project zanaris to roblox/ Minecraft isnt a good thing. Those games allow you to completely customize the game, which osrs likely won’t let you do. Tbh I think it’s a waste of time to make this if you can’t edit everything like npc models, maps, etc. that would make this game blow up. But for some reason a billion dollar game company won’t put that much effort into it
Raiksey saying that he hopes people will try pvp... WHY!? what purpose would that ever serve!? oh go out there and get shredded by pkers who only punch down after a boss which you clutched out or started attacking it before them so have more teeth to lose? This is what pkers do not understand, WE DO NOT CARE - we do not care you want more players to kill without a fight, we do not care that you want massive loot drops, we do not care that you want to stroke yourself while piling on some poor sods few hours online. One good thing about community servers is it will force you pkers all into once sodding place to fight amongst yourselves!
Pleeeease do podcasts more often. I love listening to you 3 ramble about the game while driving to/from work
this is so interesting thanks a lot so hyped for leagues and zanaris too!!
25:55 Raiksey still raving on about the giant goblin XD LAMO

Good to see you guys back on the podcast.
I always look forward to these.
Respect

This is amazing! Thanks mod Mat K :)

If I die on my hardcore, I'll make a private server hardcore with my own rules where I have içnfinite lives.

hope the population of those custom servers can retain like 2000 players after a year
Ill take 1000 in 6 months for 500$, Alex.
