About RuneScape... What is up with their in game lag...

Ok, on a more serious note. I've been wondering why RuneScape has such a bad lag issuse. It was first just server lag but now its even game lag ever since the new HD update. For me its most noticeable when playing in full screen mode. I know it doesn't have to do with my computer, because my computer will pretty much blow any game out of the water, but RuneScape...

So I was wondering if its because RuneScape is coded in Java that makes RuneScape game play so bad, or is it because it run in a web browser?

What do you guys think the issuse is here? Or do you think it has to do with something else other then it being coded with Java and or because it runs in a web browser?

Motst likely numbers have increased since the HD update and they dont have enough bandwidth.

P.S. To everybody else. When the guy asks a question about a game, try to answer it instead of being ignorant gamers and say he shouldn't play the game. If he wants to play Runescape he can.

I don't think it has to do with bandwidth because the worlds are hardly ever complately full.

I enjoy Runescape i think its great. Ive noticed a fair bit of lag as well. Especially at the Grand Exchange or other crowded areas. And my PC falls well within the specs. I think everyone is getting it despite your PC; so say the mods anyway. Should be sorted pretty soon i don't think theres anything you can do.

My computer falls well withing the specs,huge hard drive with just 4% used,so I'm pretty well peaked for the game.I never had lag issues out side maybe when they 1st would do an update,however,the last update has me lagging bad.I'm timing the response time to reaction time and its 10 seconds on average. I updated my java console,re- run all my spy ware/share ware programs,cleaned and defragged and nothing helps so I know its in an in game based problem.In addition,i wiped out all my stored java files from runescape (and all others) I was figuring maybe i had something corrupt,but no better.So dont feel alone,i hope the thread keeps going with ideas,cuz now i'm the point of searching the net and seeing if I can tweak my java console or something.You not alone,i share your pain. blueroket1

I third that. And, as to your question, you'd probably be better asking the Jagex themselves.
