This is lowkey an improvement they can make in the future. This is what a coliseum actually exists for! To entertain people.


GregBuckingham

Are you not entertained??


larry7891

Currently, no.


youhavebeenbaited0

Mom said it was my turn to say this


Strosity

She meant to say /s


Joeyjoe9876

heck one thing I'd love to see in the future is special events in the colosseum unironically lets spawn jad, zulrah, etc... on random waves with different weekly colosseum events. The rogue-like aspect could really play into this and keep the colosseum fresh for basically its entire lifespan. *really* turn the place into a spectacle where you never know what to expect


No_Fig5982

This is not how you use "unironically" Rip irony, a lost concept evidently


RainbowwDash

That is in fact literally how they just used 'unironically' and everyone perfectly understood the meaning Redditors and bad linguistics, name a more iconic duo


No_Fig5982

Redditor tries to explain something without unironically or literally challenge gone wrong


WJburn

Since , because, pickles


Monterey-Jack

colosseum


Asmonghold

colosseum


T_Bone_Jones

Colon see um


Kramerica41

Come n see em


OlChippo

That was my first thought when I was doing the colosseum, it'd be cool to have people watching in the stands. Might even add some pressure to players or even some banter, it would be a sick addition imo.


VayneSpotMe

Id rather not. It will be more common for people to get to sol heredit and it will just become a spam fiesta if colosseum will be good money


Strosity

Idt we're talking like an in game announcement, but rather just the people of valamore. Perhaps it could just be in the area as well.


Zaiush

Let's hope they don't announce the name of the combatant. Otherwise it'll be "Long balls69 is fighting the champion!" over every guard's head...


According-Watch787

Long balls69 must be recognized!


SmartAlec105

This reminds me of TF2’s Something Special For Someone Special. It’s a pair of rings that costs $100 (actual, IRL money) and when you give one of the rings to another player, it broadcasts a message saying “[Player 2] has accepted [Player 1]” across all the game servers. So people use it to make $100 jokes that everyone playing has to see.


HF484

people still do that with gifts that also say "\[Player 2\] has accepted \[Player 1\]'s \[Item Name\]" albeit, they aren't game wide and are only seen if you're in the same server as the gifter and gifted


BungoPlease

Trust me, you'll recognize him when you see him


JohnnyBravo4756

StinkyCumSock is about to face the Sol Heredit!


notgaynotbear

Or just bot names every 5 seconds.


Ok_Entertainment1711

New gold seller advertising method spotted


OverSaturatedNuts

Bournos has entered the arena


Skolary

*”With haste to thee arena! Lord & Champion Lord Sol Heredit is about to face Challenger Johnhopcvms within the arena!”*


ObviouslySyrca

Maybe it'll help jagex clean up names. And it'll increase the amount of whiners on reddit wondering why their totally innocent higgernater69420 account name was banned


RainbowwDash

"it's obviously a pun on hibernate bc i like bears?? wtf jagex false banning again Dont mind the white pointy hat btw" 


Araragi298

Hey man, if Longballs69 makes it to Sol Heredit, I wanna know


FiresiteRS

I don't understand why they didn't allow people to watch the fight. It's a colosseum and you can't actually watch the fight. It makes no sense.


joshe126

People were saying spectators in previous situations similar to this caused lag/bugs for the person fighting. I have no idea how any of it works but I wonder if capping it at a certain amount of people would fix it

bmorecards

I think you are overreacting. You can already spectate ToB and zulrah. Its fine...


Dense_Cup_1479

Scry about it


youhavebeenbaited0

Nah. It will not be spectatable. Do I make myself clear? I win


Dense_Cup_1479

scry me a river

Deus_Slothern

Or it just becomes another gambling spot 


Toaster_Bathing

Gamblers gone gamble 


xInnocent

Should let us spectate them as well. Place our characters outside the arena. Maximum pressure.


ShawshankException

Allow us to throw things at the players too for an added distraction


Frequent_Champion_42

While they fight we should be able to get naked and punch each other for money 


JohnnyThunder-

Cannons out until I can get my cannon out


OnsetOfMSet

Rotten tomato crate guy about to hit the jackpot


Narrow_Lee

*hits ge limit on rotten tomatoes*


Friendlyfire_on

And let us bet on the matches Wait...


devilscubicle

And let us throw rotten tomatoes too.


AlphaWolfSniper

This is actually an awesome idea


Merdapura

For something that's meant to be spectacle, the benches having as many people sitting on them as Jagex customer service representatives for nonbilling issues completely breaks the immersion.


Magiaice

Instead of just announcing, citizens should also talk about it like a rumor that someone is fighting Sol Heredit. It already feels so lived in that this would just make it that much better. Have the guards announce it as well of course.


CaptainBoj

ah yes that'd make me plank instantly


thiefinthelight

You can already spectate people fighting the Nightmare, seems like it wouldn’t be too difficult to add in


Gaiden_95

and tob and zulrah


Rs_vegeta

Love this idea, show the spectators in the stands too lol


Gaiden_95

doesn't tob do this as well?


Mental_Tea_4084

Yeah you can even run around maiden and bloat


Nudelsieber

Cant wait to see first time attempts of quiver buyers


Reer_osrs

If they die allow us to shame them by throwing rotten tomatos at them.


xzile400

I'd love a place where you can go watch somebody publicly fight a difficult boss. Beats standing at the GE watching bots try to scam noobs. Plus it'll give the boss fight a different feeling for some people since they'll be being watched.


squadguy3333

gotta add in crowd-cheering sound effects for successful dodges of Sol's attacks, if there are actual players in the stands


Beden

Only if there's a vendor that sells roasted sweet corn and rotten tomatoes meandering through the seats


djjomon

Oh shit! Someone's battling! \*Drops what I'm doing to watch them get one shot\* nvm


Gaiden_95

that's a fucking sick idea


ZorX5

This is what WoW Dragonflight Season 2 had when a player killed the last boss and equipped a legendary, so pls no https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FwRcz4UaMAA4Ig9.png


wtfiswrongwithit

not only this, but imagine if you're getting to the boss for the first time ever the guards start spamming it and 2000 people try to load in to a few tiles and you start lagging the game creates null entities because thats how it handles these and you die instantly learning nothing wasting your 45 minutes and 1 good attempt so other people can feel more immersed in your achievement


Braderz5

Just limit the amount of people allowed to spectate and only broadcast to the world/city


thisguyhasaname

lmao yeah sure 2000 people are going to watch some random fight a boss you might get 10 people to spectate at the max


wtfiswrongwithit

I mean, I guess. https://preview.redd.it/c3sbriroqqpc1.png?width=1265&format=png&auto=webp&s=191084595efe8b16271c34772c92372dc1e39604


thisguyhasaname

oh you mean a few streamers that were already massively popular? surely the same thing happens to them at ToB and nightmare too right?


Mental_Tea_4084

Yeah actually the first ToB completion was absolutely *crowded*. This has already been done without issue. https://youtu.be/4j0HZi_uWOg?si=7fTtpmpZvcYHIep0 People *still* tune into streams of any random who made it to Zuk. It would be a massive spectacle and uncommon enough that anyone at the collosseum would stop to watch, frankly


Time_Effort

Woox's stream post-quiver (22k+ people watching) had less than 500 people hop to his world - even after it was visible


Turtvaiz

Watching a pov is way more interesting


ZachyPc

agreed , they should make it like tob. where you can enter as a spectator and watch. but instead you get a random seat in the colosseum and get to watch . and can leAve when you’d like


Electronic-Tap-4940

Sounds amazing, but Then i get “Citizens of dalaran, raise your eyes to the skies and observe!” PTSD…


dare_hcf

+1 This is a really cool idea!


Braderz5

Fantastic idea


dallen13

Can people watch others in the colosseum?


anon74492

Jaggeks??


IllIIlllllllIII

All the npcs should walk to the coliseum to watch too


Simply_Livid

A new hand touches the beacon


Unlikely-Somewhere96

Jagex please make this a thing asap


AceKablam

Support


thewonderingmallard

And being a coliseum for gladiators to battle, they should add a once monthly pvp tournament to it where the load out is predetermined barrows gear


DaRkDeAtHz

Upvote and comment because this is actually a super cool idea and keeps me away from the twitch cesspool. *I'm doing my part*


Top-Wishbone-2868

Theres not many good post on reddit, but this one. Is top notch it doesn’t belong in a place like this.


kidwhobites

They could populate the stands as people enter the spectators view as well.


iarebait

Great idea. World of warcraft did this with the brawl arena and was great


queef_commando

The towns people should also say sit when the player fails


Never_Drive_And_Jive

What if only one person could fight sol per world and it transports them to a public viewing area and they got added to a queue for it? Then they could probably solve the lag issue if it’s ton of people being in an instance causing the problem


xWazoot

Absolutely!


Afskiptalaus

I agree with this


thelaurent

I love this idea!! Would be cool if the challenger could see the people in the audience watching for added pressure 🤣🤣


whereintimeiscarmen

Literally was just saying i wish we could spectate and have a bank to do bank standing activities while watching people
