[Update] Icon upgrade, Is it for the better?

[Barwy]

Jagex have put all new Icons into the game, along with new sounds, and even one new spell which will teleport you to lumbridge; it requires no runes although it takes forever to cast and "can be interrupted by combat"

Here's two quick screenies for anyone who cant be bothered to log in:

those are the only things i like the rest is po and also the fishing movements have changed

[Achieve]

That looks bloody disgusting. I prefer how it used to look tbh.

[---MAD---]

Amazing new interface!

[Crimson]

hmm, pretty cool. I have to say i prefered the old ones.

[Kardan]

I prefer the normal one...

[Chosen One]

What a waste of an Update..

[---MAD---]

What a waste of an Update..
As usual, negative.

The old icons were rubbish because they were transferred from RSC I think. These are much better looking and more detailed :D.

[Matty]

I like them all other than the movement one, I think they're too big.

[Kardan]

The sounds of the whistling wind is jumpy, lumbridge swamp is horrible...

[Brody]

i dont like it that much

[jeff]

only a few words can be said for the upd8... it is ****

Is thats what is making runescape taking agies to load.. lol

[Rashelly]

I really like them.
The emotes and equipment stats are especially good.

[---MAD---]

I agree. :)

Ye, i like them.

BUT, the only thing that annoys me is.. The run option is so small? and in a different place? Ah well..ill get used to it.

[Charles]

It's going to take some getting used to. At the moment i'm all negative about it, but i'll grow to like it.
I don't play with sounds on, iTunes is far better :)

[lDeclan]

RuneScape Has Been ruined , it is causing so much lagg and people are not liking it..

I Think there will be a decrease in users..

But thats my view :)

[Crimson]

It is now SERIOUSLY laggy, i've been disconnected like 3 times in the past 10 minutes.

[Chosen One]

I'm not laggy...

[Blue]

i quite like it :D

i like the non rune teleport looks kwl

[IGlooscap]

I'm not laggy...

Same, plus i dont think people will stop using it because of different buttons? Since when did anyone play for buttons?

Apart from sean..

[Charles]

It's normally laggy after a game update, not the quest types though. When they updated the game engine (or whatever) people were crying over lag.

[Jack.]

I agree with ---MAD---. I love the new interfaces.

[Actor]

I think its just because there new and everyone will be used to the old ones i bet in a month or so of getting used to them you may like them better, i for one think it will take a little getting used to But i like the bit where u man comes up and it tells you the Armour stats..

[Erin]

It has made me hate fishing i hate the movement and its got alot slower :(

[Barwy]

I shall have to take a look at the new fishing movements

I really dont like the Run buttons now, if you want to do it in a hurry when trying to get away from something, could result in a death :O

Otherwise, i think its a much needed development, and welcome the new interface

[Blue]

btw if u wanna run quick press ctrl and clik where u wanna run

[Crimson]

I have to say it is okay now, I suppose it was new and laggy. Now its fine. I think its okay but i detest the emote sections.

[Ashley 12344]

Waste of an update, it could have go onto something more useful.

And btw, the buttons were NOT from Classic.

[Joahh]

Im liking it

[mr.parasols]

I really like it, the run is only downside.

[---MAD---]

whats wrong with the run :s, I dont get it...everyone on rs forums is complaining about it as well..even though people there always complain lol.

[omgabear]

I love the new interface, except for the emotes... kinda hard to differ one and other.

[-sFusion-]

i think it looks pretty awesome. but the emotes look freaky to me. i guess i'll get use to it.

my favorite part: THE LUMBRIDGE BANK. omg. it needed one.

[Rashelly]

my favorite part: THE LUMBRIDGE BANK. omg. it needed one.
There's been a bank in lumbridge for ages...Ever since Recipe For Disaster came out.
And I'm not lagging either...Also...there is no problem with run? I think the run part is better, since the energy level is on the same part, which it wasn't before.

It needed a change, people saying it's a waste of an update need to stop moaning and get over it.

I agree with you ;)

[infatuation]

ohwow.
I love this;
and whoever said ctrl+click to run, he's right.
So you don't need the button on run to run.
the new emotes are pretty cool, imo.
and the new teleport is pretty cool, drawing the circle and that, lol.

even i knew that.

Also theres some like combat ppl in lumby, or have they always been there, one gave me a free shield and sword :):)


and wheres the lumby bank, i never knew there was one

[redtom]

The Lummy bank is in 2 places the new one at the very top and the old one what is a chest in the basement

And I like the new sounds a lot but I don’t use sounds much, and i like the new icons and weapon stats thing but I don’t like the dark orange used for the normal stats it makes the stats dull and horrible to look at

map pls

[JoeyK.]

I thought the new tele was funny... Reminds me of WoW's hearthstone, except you can't choose the location.

I like everything else except for the run, it's a lot harder to get to now...

[Random]

Same as Joey, I only dislike the run, I'd have hoped you could see the stats of the armour without clicking on an interface though, but I supposed it looks better. :)

[Ekalb]

Hmm
Likes: The emotes page (Love the pics telling you what it will be like), The Player Stats page with the revolving picture of you (Good for screenies), lumrbdige bank for f2p aswell as a few p2p ers.
Dislikes: How run is allot easier to miss when your in a hurry its small but i like how its in the little page with icons for each thing. The orange text for stats is a bit ughh.

Im not sure how I feel about the attack styles page but I did like it before how you could see the wep but I guess you can now if you go to stats page. I havent been to lumrbdige myself to check out the swamp and all that but meh. Nor have Ichecked the fishing stuff. I dont use the sounds but some are a little wierd and lame.
Now it needs a game graphics update to match the icons.
I havent had much in game lag but loading the game itself might have been slower.
Thats my say :)

[Dark Chevard]

I hate the run command on it, i prefer old one.
