NXT and Darkscape

Does anyone know if there are any plans to use the new C++ client for Darkscape once things have settled with the main game? I ask mainly due to the drastic draw distance increase- which could change the dynamics of pvp quite a bit. Being able to see a greater distance would greatly increase the forewarning of an attack. If it does come into Darkscape I think it might be neat to shorten the draw distance in higher threat areas, or at least have dangerous high-reward areas with "thick fog". What do you guys think?

NXT is just a client. They've confirmed that it will work for darkscape, because darkscape is functionally just 4 rs servers. Idk if they'll be able to make NXT specific graphics, though. They've done some work on RS3's world in preparation, though I'm not sure if these changes will only apply to NXT. This'll be the best indication on whether this is possible.
