Mechscape will have desert planets

As I sit here, drinking my coffee, I think about the color brown. It is not just in my coffee but also on a desert planet in Mechscape. A recently released picture from Jagex shows a futuristic Star Wars type planet that’s just a huge desert. Imagine a huge Mechscape desert with sci-fi technology like beast cloning machines and mech robots.

Mechscape World of Mechs

Today, the CEO of Jagex said that Mechscape may not be called Mechscape after all. It may be called something else. Maybe StellarDawn, maybe not.

They are still deciding and they might end up with some other name too. That’ll be really weird because everybody’s been used to Mechscape for the past 2 years and now they do this. Some people like Mechscape World will get pretty annoyed because their domain name includes Mechscape in it.

Other people like Zybez Mechscape Help won’t mind because they’re just using zybez.net/mechscape so they can just change up the directory and everything’s good.

It is interesting how some of the large Runescape fan sites never bothered to make Mechscape versions except for Zybez Runescape Help. Maybe they knew that Mechscape was just a code-name for something else – perhaps they thought the whole idea of a new game from Jagex was absurd. Maybe they thought it was going to flop like FunOrb or maybe those old Jagex games.

Mechscape vs. Runescape

Runescape

Runescape

Runescape quest guides help players get the tips they need in order to complete their quests. They are like instructions of knowledge to the Runescape players so that they can solve puzzles and stuff.

Mechscape planets and stars

Mechscape planets and stars

What game is this? Well it is none other than Mechscape and I have to tell you that it involves a planet. The Mechscape stars in the background are yellow in color and quite bland in texture. The red spot on the planet is Mechscape lava which a harvester can easily grab and take away for processing.

Now do you understand the difference between Runescape and Mechscape and which one is better.

Warlock pvp spec

World of Warcraft brings many things to the game of MMORPGs. One of them is the warlock pvp spec that everybody is so into the whole idea of best warlock leveling spec in WoW. Before you say “cool story bro”, I have to say that WorldofWarcraft requires your estimation when it comes to cool character names.

Runescape is old, Mechscape is new

In fact, Mechscape is so new, it hasn’t even been released yet. There have been no official news about it either. Some information about Mechscape has leaked onto a blog. That blog also has some prototype photos of the characters planned for Mechscape. And then there is also something called FunOrb. My guess is that it’s a portal with many games in it, rather than a game itself.

From what I’ve heard from the rumor-mill, Mechscape will run on the same technology as Runescape. So, in other words, it will be the same thing as Runescape, except different content (different graphics, different monsters, different ’stuff’) – but the game will run from the browser just like Runescape (it’ll be Java applet based). And, it will also most likely have the same playing style as Runescape… so click-this and use-it-with-this, etc. Of course, all this speculation can be totally wrong. This is all hypothesizing based on what I’D do, if I was Jagex. (I’d make 20 games based on the same ‘engine’ as Runescape, all with different content – to satisfy all tastes: a futuristic game, a present-day game, a cartoony cute game, a prehistoric one, an ocean/island one, a military one, etc. )

I wonder whether websites like Zybez Runescape Help and Tips will make a help-site with tools, calculators, and guides for Mechscape. I’d really like it if they did.

Apart from this, other games on the horizon that I’m looking forward to: Age of Conan. It’s a traditional MMORPG like World of Warcraft, but I’d still like to play it. It’s supposed to have some kick-ass graphics and stuff like mounts and realistic combat. Also, there’ll be some city-building elements and siege warfare. fun fun!
