Unaccepted or unimplemented, either's fine.

In rough order of increasing excitement:
Loading vehicles on ships is something I've been waiting for for a very long time. I'm so glad it finally got accepted.
Carcasses would encourage me to RP hunting much more. I'd like to see them.
Food rot, if we can ever agree on it, would make the Cworld a better place, I know it. Alas, this doesn't look like it's going to get accepted.
Chains and handcuffs. I'm not fully happy with the suggestion, but it's a hugely wonderful start.
DBS, of course.
Banded repeaters would hopefully make the radio situation better in the long-term.
Anchors. Every one of my captains with a crew is waiting for this technological breakthrough.
Shoes. I need that zippered boot sooo badly.
Seko's beautiful idea of putting raws on objects is something I can't wait for!
Not even the original suggestion, but Yang's idea of distinct wounds is what I'm most ridiculously hyped about. It's the perfect solution to something I've been mindracked over every time I get hit and try to RP a cut.

Removal of radios; fixing the fighting system, horseback riding, building destruction, finishing vehicle disassembling, drunkenness, *a secret*, trains, homing pigeons, backpacks to increase inventory space, rum.
EDIT: And a newbie server, of course.

  • Radio disassembly
  • Horseback riding
  • Weather actually having an effect on Cantr life other than just roleplay
  • Portable/wearable containers to increase inventory space
  • Drunkenness
  • Building destruction
  • Dancer clothes (silver)
  • Silver wreath
  • Loading vehicles onto ships
  • Desire-based spawning

:lol:

    New players pre-game space
    sunglasses (what? I'm an Aussie, we wear them nearly everywhere and they complement an outfit)
    a weather system that I understand and want to roleplay to.
    desire based spawning as per Doug's post
    More jewellery pieces with a few underused resources
    tea cups and more household knick nacks and furniture
    a better balance for primitive towns and survival versus high tech towns

Drunkenness does sound like fun. As does horse riding and homing pigeons. I have always liked the idea of backpacks INSTEAD of the kangaroo pockets we were born with, but that's one of those things that won't happen.
Unsurprisingly, I like the idea of food rot, and carcasses

And I am also looking forward to combat fixing, although more from curiosity than anything. I haven't actually gotten into any cantr combat.

I think the full animal domestication is what I am most excited about.

Railroads, expanded cooking, and even though I was opposed at first I'm looking forward to some of the expanded rot ideas..roads and buildings.

Newbie server - It will hopefully reduce clueless newspawns on main server.

The system that would allow adding resources to items to customize them

Most clothing suggestions

More things utilizing gems/pearls and not necessarily just traditional jewelry

Garages/bike sheds - this would make the vehicles page so much cleaner in big towns

Chains and handcuffs

Steamboats

Domestication of ocelots

Voluntary system of being born as a child to parents

More porcelain items - The reason this resource is so underused is because most people don't have access to it due to lack of marble, but for those few who have it, I wish they could make more stuff out of it.

Resource subtypes - It would be awesome if you could see which type of fur you've got, or which type of meat. Also imagine how awesome it would be if different locations had different types of grapes or apples. Then you could have different quality wines and tart and sweet pies etc. This would be a nightmare to program but one can still dream.

Being allowed to spawn in towns where your rl friends play - Currently this is a CRB but imagine how much more popular the game would get if you could tell your friend "if you join, we'll give your character all this stuff".

Things I could live without:

DBS - because my slots are full anyway and I don't know where I'd want to spawn even given a choice because it's really the people that count, not the location, and there's no way of measuring the value of people

Trains - Because it's going to be so expensive that few people actually get around to making them. This is something that will require so much cooperation only a few groups are up to it.

Oh, I forgot about almost the most important, my number four in terms of the most wanted stuff:
Better vegetation system to make farming wheat and potatoes even more entertaining.

Is radio dissassembly really that exciting when you can just change the channel?

Number 1 for me: Trains (it would give a character or two of mine something difficult yet exciting to work on)
Tutorial Server
Guarding and other combat changes
Loading vehicles onto ships

Yes, as it does give an IC way to make radio annoyances more difficult ;). If one sets up a squad to drive through abandoned towns and disassemble radio transmitters, there would be a lot less unguarded transmitters to be abused.

I think the thing I'm looking forward to the most right now is building destruction

I thought radio dissembling was already possible? (For all except repeaters.)

Building and landmarks destruction/decay.


I thought you can disassemble them with pliers and... other tool that I don't remember and can't check now because I try to keep my characters far from radios.
