It doesnt really bother me as Im not particularly interested but it has been a year and many many players are getting no response from staff. Think its a good idea for yall to be transparent as possible towards the players

I just started playing and this is already frustrating me. Just tell your players what to expect.

Like I said before, it will be delayed because I ate it and now we'll have to wait till I poop it out.

Most likely they are waiting for osrs mobile to come out to release slayer . Atleast thats what I m thinking . And tbh nothing is wrong with that , but yeah it has been a full year since they announce slayer and the hype kinda died hmm and some players including myself lost interest for it .

See I'd rather them work out all the kinks with Slayer rather than releasing it incomplete or buggy. But its true, more communication of this would be nice

We're going to tease the new NPCs, equipment, weapons, and masters as we get closer to release. This expansion will give players new strategies and abilities that have never been in RSC, but which fit right in. That post should give people a much fuller picture of what slayer in RSCR will actually be.

Full disclosure:The main delay has been finishing the many sprite sets for all the different new monsters and items. But especially the monsters. When we first announced slayer, we had intended to reuse existing NPC sprite sets and only introduce a couple new sprite sets. This was revised and replaced with a pantheon of new RSC monsters which could not possibly reuse existing sprite sets. RSC has a particular look and feel which is very easy to get wrong if the art isn't styled identically. We only have one person, nisti, working on the remaining sprites with me currently. The sprite sets for walk animations and fight animations need much more love than the slayer system code which is basically done. So much so that by our estimations we could develop a quality Runecrafting skill (since the demands are more on inventory sprites and landscape additions, and not npc animations) before releasing slayer, even. Kleio and I have been managing many of the day to day operations of the server, so customer support and stability/bugfixes tend to take most of our attention. Hence, the delay with slayer release.

tl;dr It's trucking along but the art is taking a while. If you are a sprite art wizard and want to get involved and see what we've already got done, shoot us a DM on Discord.

Makes sense.

Most delays with development teams are due to art/graphic restraints, hence why so much of it is usually outsourced.

Keep trucking along guys. Thanks !

Please don't add Slayer and Craftrune. The game is fine the way it is and it would just ruin the RSC feel which is why I lile this game a lot.

I dont really like the thought of rc, slayer sounds good, but u gotta get with the times most people want new content now, or the game gets dry

We can see where your frustrations are coming from, but we need to trust the staff on it's release. To insure critical bugs aren't released with it.

Pureman is right.  Kleio came online and said it's something that's coming slowly because there are only two people working on it, and their passion for it is pretty low.
