Colosseum Spectator Mode

[ornate wasp]

Would it be difficult to implement a spectator function to the Colosseum?
The stands are empty, and I have no doubt that watching Colosseum runs would make for great entertainment!

Additionally, would also be fun if more NPCs appeared in the stands the higher the wave.

in terms of 'how difficulty it would be' i imagine not very hard, since this is possible for tob

[spring torrent]

we should have this for inferno too, so we can see who buys their cape/quiver thus making it easier to appropriately degrade them

I'm imagining a minor, optional interface you can interact with before sending a colosseum run whereby you can adjust your Audience preferences.
Allow anyone to watch, allow nobody to watch, make your session open to anybody with a "password".
They could extend this further and add a leaderboard of sorts, detailing the glory, time taken, damage received, etc of a given player's run dependant on their Audience settings.

Additional dimensions of visibility like this could incentivise more competitive play among groups of friends, high-end pvmers, etc and could possibly allow for other players to "watch and learn" in real time if they wanted to.

Jagex should totally do a based move and give anyone who allows anyone to spectate their run extra glory based on the amount of actual players who showed up for the entire run.

I believe they wanted the stands to have spectators in the first place, but due to engine limitations it woulda been too taxing on the instance. If u wanna fil every seat with an NPC model, thats gonna be a lotta of polygons

But 100% agree with the suggestion. When colo came out i was surprised this wasnt a feature already. Spectating tobs was so much fun on release. Pls add Gagek.

I like the idea that sol heredit killed all the spectators 😈

[fringe mauve]

go 1 step further. add a gold sink where everyone in the crowd who pays 100k to enter gets to vote on your invocation

if the crowd demands bees, you get bees

[stray nacelle]

lmao i love that
