It's been brought to my attention that there's a few things that the majority of Survival 303 players are wanting as updates. This thread is to take a poll on what people do and do not want changed.

===== 1. Saving =====
Saving has been a topic of (quite heated) debate regarding 303 for a long time. I've considered the possibility of adding a save, but balancing it so you still have to work to keep your things saved. My proposal is to add a once-per-day save which will save everything for the duration of 1 day. If you don't play the game within 24 hours of your save file, your data will be lost and you'll have to start over.

This gives veterans an opportunity to save their items, but it would still take a lot of dedication to the game to keep your save going. Please note this decision has not yet been made, so don't worry if you don't like the idea.

Post whether you'd want this update to be added or not, and please provide a reason why. The topic of saving is not up for further debate, so please only make one post about it.


===== 2. Map Change =====
It has come to my attention that people are getting sick of playing the same old map every day, and I have to admit I can see why. It's been the exact same map since the dawn of Survival 303. It has been proposed that we create a new map, and I would fully support this update if it's something the majority of people want.

It has also been proposed that we have several maps, and give users the option to chose which map they would like to play in the beginning of a server. I believe this would greatly improve the quality of experience gained while playing Survival 303, and make it a little more fun to play every day.

If multiple maps were to be used, the classic map would still always be an option. If you like the idea and would like to submit an island to be used, build one and upload it as a Model. Please send all submissions to my personal inbox. (Do not submissions on this thread, I'd like to conserve space for discussion on the updates)

If implemented, there probably be another poll in the future to decide your favorite islands to be added.


===== 3. Decorative Items =====
Traditionally, items in Survival 303 have always been purely functional. This has changed very little over time as we've added a Shelf, Table and other such items. They seem to be a hit for showing off an advanced village, and recently I've read a lot of suggestions asking for more decorative items.

If enough people want more decorative items, I'll make it happen.


===== Notice =====
Please note this thread is not asking for suggestions, just asking for your opinions on the subjects at hand. Please direct all suggestions to the Suggestions and ideas thread: http://www.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=51849795

I think the saving would discourage newer players from playing the game, as they would get raided almost immediately. On another note, the island vote would be a good idea, if that were to happen, not everyone would know where everything is and it would add some challenge back into the game for people who are experienced. Well, that's all for now. Keep up the good work!

24-hour saves: Yes, please I would like it.
New maps: Yeah but, make them same size and separated by a 'quadrant' of pure water so people can go from Map A to Map 2.
Decorations: Yes. It's good to get away from function. Maybe make a nice 'Hotel' for people to stay in.

Also, check the suggestions more often or get someone to do it for you and screen the ideas. Like me for example.

Don't add the save system people will take too big of an advantage and just kill the beginners. You should make it a VIP that allows them to save whenever but make it like 1000 TIX

The save is not quite fair. People who have gotten armor..Such as Mithril armor and reinforced mithril armor, Can save it, come back a few hours later, and have everything they made before. And they can just raid whoever they want if they've gotten Mithril weapons.
It is annoying, sometimes..That i lose connection and i lost all my stuff, But thats our problem.

Do not add saving since most people will go crazy and invade everyone as soon as they start the game. The map thing is a good idea since it does get a little boring playing on the same maps. No harm done in doing decorative items either, I think it would be awesome to be able to create more things for your town.

saving should be restricted to saving lvls only, saving items would result in ppl just raging with mithril weapons, maybe save your lvls up to a certain lvl so u still have to work a bit to obtain them like lvl2 or 3 save cap, on the map thing, i dont think an entirely new map should be added, to much adapting, instead maybe just expanding the current map

Why not make it so it saves for half an hour or so because losing connection is pretty annoying.

no saves please no save... what makes this game so fun and you want to play it over and over is that you have to start all over everyday, if not everyone will have everything therefore making the game dumb and boring... please consider this...

I Do not think the saving is a good idea because people could make mithril stuff, leave and come back with all of it and kill all the newbies

I think the decorative items would be great because the towns look too brown and boring so decorative things would be great

@Saves: Nope. Not of any type ever.
@Map change: I would like to have a new map. It would add more than just going to an island that you know has this and mining it.
@Decorative Items: Would be nice even though I don't use the currently existing ones.

There's the problem of selling it. Davidii2 is not BC and therefore wouldn't make any profit off of it.
