[June 27th, 2023] Hunger Games Minigame and more!

Recommended Posts

New launcher required (CDN Upgrade)

In order to play, you must download our latest RuneX launcher from our website homepage!

Or, you can download it directly here: https://d2n1q79xme98rn.cloudfront.net/rx_live/RuneX.jar

We've upgraded our CDN for game asset downloads -- which means that download speeds should be far faster when updating your game.

Other benefits include:

  • Cache / game update downloads should no longer be hindered when hundreds of other players are downloading it at the same time
  • Connectivity with the game client should no longer be hindered if our web server is down / having connectivity issues

You'll know if you're using the correct launcher if "Version 3" is displayed on the title bar

Hunger Games

This new PvP based minigame is now available for all players, and lobbies are hosted 24/7!

Even if you are not maxed combat stats, you will receive them temporarily within the minigame.

For those who have not participated during our previous installment, the summary is:

  • You are placed in a battlefield with 5-15 players, without any gear or supplies
  • You must find items from chests around the map
  • Various events also occur in the battlefield
    • Some of them will help you (blessings)
    • Some will cause you and other players harm (curses)
    • Make sure to keep an eye on the chatbox for their broadcasts!
  • Killing players grants rewards that you can claim after the match
  • Placing as one of the Top 3 survivors grants bonus rewards, and the winner (last survivor) gets the best prize

In addition, every 90 minutes Golden Hunger Games matches are also hosted for 15 minutes, which provide bonus rewards.

The reward currency are Games medals which can be used to purchase items from the Hunger Games Master's shop at home.

 

GPU Mode (Beta)

We've made some improvements & fixes to GPU mode, particularly bug fixes for the notoriously reported crashing at raids. (Note: This also includes some visual improvements for CoX maps, both for GPU and non-GPU, which were showcased on our discord dev-blog)

In addition, we've removed the old ::gpu / ::stretch command and added all the configuration for GPU Beta on a side panel tab.

There are some new options, and general easier access. The client will now also remember all settings (including stretched mode)

We also added autodetection w/ a warning display for users running 32-bit java on a 64-bit PC (a common issue with GPU that some players tend to not notice)

 

Other / Misc.

  • Fixed CTRL+T for bosses such as vorkath and chasmquaker
  • Vorkath teleport scrolls now place you closer to the entrance of the lair
  • Duel arena tele graphic bug fixed
  • Added new Ultra Secret Rares (they're super duper secret 🤫 )
