Animal Crossing Direct Discussion Thread

Both my mom and I were blown away at the update. I’ve been kinda in a slump lately with New Horizons, but now I know what I want to do with my island and this update and dlc will definitely get me back into it and keep coming back for a very long time.

I think it was the one I had in NL just because I was already drowning in bells and the hours changes didn't matter cause I adjusted my clock anyway haha. Aw shame about the cockroaches if you want to keep them!

Yeah me too. I kept it on the beautiful town ordinance because of the flowers. It was a pain to water the whole town everyday. I don’t ever water my flowers now, so I don’t see me using it. I guess I’ll go for the Bell Boom ordinance this time around. I don’t need the other two since I adjust my time as well

To the people who said I was crazy when I said paid DLC would happen for New Horizons: HA!

Okay but Its this early and i can see Shino is highly popular, maybe she can beat Raymond? Her villager price could be 100k NMTs lol and people will overprice the new villager! Haha villager hype wave 2 Will soon begin! Prepare yourself!

For me, i rather wait until the hype is over

But if you also have the paid dlc i think this villagers will also appear in the mystery island soon rather than after 200 nook tickets

@Dracule I love those pics you posted. I need that bacon frying piece. I want to just deck my entire island in bacon. I'm going to invite all pig villagers and gift them bacon. I need the bacon.

Bacon bacon baacooon!

LMFAO, not gifting your pig villagers bacon, oh my lawddd . And thank you! I can only take credit for the food ones—the other ones all go to miss_acnh! She’s soooo amazing at interior decorating!

I'm hoping new villagers will not be so expensive because we will have access to amiibo cards.

 

[Sara?]

I am hoping we have enough plots in HHP to keep making vacation homes and not just limited to 10 slots this though is making me highly nervous now

 

[Red Dust]

I was super excited when I saw Isabelle could be given a holiday home! If she can then that surely means Flick can and I can make him a glorious house to his tastes and have him as a villager in some form.

This is everything I ever wanted!!! I am so THRILLEED omg! I haven't played in a year and I seriously can't wait now. I don't mean to be rude but was the feature of villagers visiting your home ever added?

Yes. They either ask you to visit them, or they visit you.

 

[Lotusblossom]

Yes. They either ask you to visit them, or they visit you.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I just have a question about the HHP DLC, if anyone can clarify: I understand we get to choose which villagers we want to help out with their vacation home, but is it like a randomly generated selection we choose from at the beginning, or do we get a whole list of them to choose from? Because we can use amiibos to invite villagers as well. So, I'm just a little confused as to how exactly villager selection works here.

I don't know why but I am under the impression they are like the campsite and islands with an open plot - all random villagers unless you scan their amiibo.

I imagine it’s like Pocket Camp: random villagers each day, but you can also call one specifically too (here if you have an Amiibo)

And while we’re talking about this, I think for some reason the fact that homes can have multiple stories is being hidden for now— if you look at the screen for sharing / viewing designs of others in HHP, you see a section designating how many floors the home has— you wouldn’t need this unless there are multiple floors in at least some of the homes…

Yeah, I'm also inclined to think that it's like the campsite and Pocket Camp. Thanks for both of your input!

And I saw someone else mention the same thing about multiple floors as well. Seems promising.

The fact this update is free is truly a blessing. The DLC isn't even that much either. It could have been 60 dollars.. Gosh.. Anyway her <33

 

[DJStarstryker]

Some thoughts/speculation inspired by another thread: Another feature that was first to Happy Home Designer (it's also in Pocket Camp) but has never been featured in a main AC game is the ability to place rugs outside. I did not see any indication of this in the Direct. This doesn't necessarily mean anything, but I still gotta wonder: Does anyone here think we might get that back? I really hope this is another thing added by either the free update or HHP.

Anyone else find it odd that the animals want a vacation home on a different island despite the fact they live in vacation homes on your island??

"Ugh, our island is full of dropped furniture and clothing, Sulky! I cant handle it!"
