RuneScape announced they have streamlined the way players get into the game, aims to get players playing more quickly with fewer pages to go through. Simply click one of the two new buttons on the front page, you will take to the game and get started. Once the game has loaded, choose both your world and detail level directly from the title screen.

• World selection has now been moved entirely in game, you can start the game and get playing faster by going through less one page.
• The in-game world switcher now shows lots of extra information, including suggested activities for various worlds.
• Automatic world selection. Press 'Log in' on the title screen, the game will automatically choose a word for you. If you just want to play on a specific world, just choose it from the world switcher first, and then press 'Log in'.
• Favourite worlds. The in-game world switcher now lets you select up to 2 worlds as your favourites. Members see less adverts. Because of the above changes, we’ve been able to remove adverts for members playing on free worlds as long as you use the 'Members' button on the front page to log-in.
• The detail selection option has also been moved into the game. Again, this means there is one less page to go through to start the game, and gets you playing faster. This also means that you can now switch modes more easily without having to reload the game. The game will remember your last selection, so you no longer have to keep making the same choice over and over again.
• The 'safe mode' feature is now automatic. If your game fails to load for any reason, it will detect the failure the next time you load it, and automatically activate safe mode. If you want to force safe mode, then you can still do so by pressing the 's' key on your keyboard while the game is loading. Safe mode has also now been adjusted to only make the minimum changes needed to get the title screen to load: if you want to change any other options you should do so yourself from the 'Graphics Options' menu on the title screen before logging in. Your choices will then be remembered for next time.
• Unsigned mode is automatic. We’ve removed the ‘unsigned’ option from the Java options menu. Don’t worry, you can still access the unsigned applet if you need to. We’ve made the selection process for it automatic. If the game cannot load in signed mode (either because you didn’t grant it permission, or your security settings do not allow you to grant it permission) it will fall back to the unsigned version, you don’t need to do anything for this to happen.
