What announcement would make you so happy?

[Ozymandias]

I would love to see some AI improvements! Maybe a way to change up the groups so I can fight other guards as a guard. A field of view for the AI would be nice too. Instead of every single enemy on the map running towards you when you enable the AI, maybe have a directional field of view in which enemies can see you.

Waypoints and such, too.
It would be interesting building a level, setting an end goal, and seeing how the AI figured out how to path there.

i think they will first work on singeplayer and engine optimizations before they start with multiplayer implantment since that could destroy the whole engine if done wrong

Parkour vaults! Drop assassinations with the knife would also be epic.

The announcement that wolfire has been trolling everyone by showing incomplete alpha as the game had already been completed years ago.

Bears as a race would make me so happy

[Alpharius]

Being able to fight Whaleman in overgrowth

Being able to fight Whaleman in overgrowth

A mod should easily be able to do such awesome thing.

Me too.

[Alpharius]

character customization would be pretty awesome

[Jacktheawesome]

creating custom armor out of raw materials (raw as in metal and wood plates, leather wraps, etc...)

There will be very little leather, for rather obvious reasons.

Fish, reptile and bird skin could be used, but leather is still going to be much more rare than in most game worlds.

hehe... hehe... didn't think of that

I'll say it's quite the contrary after all everyone seems to be killing each other so I guess there's a LOT of leather. I don't see what stops them ("civilized" inhabitants of the Lugaru island) from skinning their opponents and making the most out of it.

1) They are humanoid, and a stand-in for humans. Using other "people's" skin for clothing is quite grotesque, and not something (most) humans would do.

2) It isn't that hard to replace leather objects with other things. Gourds instead of waterskins, clothes and armor made from plant fabric instead of leather, ropes and twines instead of leather straps, etc.

Being humanoid only means they are physically human-like, just take a look at any fantasy or science fiction universe and you'll see that many humanoids can be very savage.
I guess not every race in Overgrowth will be willing to make leather armor but maybe some races could, like a crazy-cult or something.
Maybe they could implement something like choosing to skin your opponents and make leather armor at the cost of loosing allies and/or gaining more enemies due to the grotesque nature of it. Or maybe not.
