It was heavily implied, and would make the most sense.

personally, i like the first of all three changes...
also, i noticed something in the e3 trailer, it was winter and there were no lights on the cedars... do you think they're going to stop doing that?

lights on the cedars only happen around christmas/new years- we have no time of telling what date it was in the trailer.
But i'm pretty sure lights will return

okay good! because i really liked that. i would actually spam my town with cedars to have them light up! haha
but also, and i think it was mentioned before, the grass has changed too. before it was more light and more shape-distinct. in the direct, it is more dark and shadowed/blended.
edit: then again, it could just be the quality difference in the pictures..

The lights start showing up in the trees like a few weeks or so before Christmas, then go away after New Years.
They'll return, it's one of those things that just can't be taken out of the series.

The grass really only looks different probably because it was a different season, I really like the grass in this version.
I like the new dialogue box more than the rectangular one. It reminds me of the GameCube Animal Crossing, and the rectangular one is too plain. Perhaps the game will let you choose what shape you want for the dialogue boxes? I like the shape of the new trees more, but the shading in the leaves is more varied in the old ones. There are light greens on top of dark greens, but in the new ones they're all just dark green. I don't care that much about the benches, but I do prefer the old ones a little over the new ones.

wow I just watched the early trailers again(cause i like the music) and the trees really looked awful, the leaves went down so low, and the sunshine affect on the ground really took away from the flowers, so glad that is fixed. And the funniest thing was when the girl entered a house, her feet were going crazy! It was so funny to see her feet, oh they really improved on the game.

It was still in beta back then though. lol
I'm really happy they improved everything since then. But it's nice when developers show their game in progress, instead of hushing it up until the very end.

I like the new trees alot more, to be honest.
They look a bit darker, and because of that i think they look like the first game's tree's!

Yeah exactly, they look like the old trees. And I like the old trees, BUT I wanted something new. Ok, since the game is very new and innovative in so many other ways, it's ok. But I still prefered the trees from the first trailer and screenshots.
I thought the brighter color of the trees, fruit, and stumps looked pretty nice at first too, but the glare quickly got to me. x.x Seems to me like it'd be kind of an eyesore overtime.

OMG this brings me back to my first memory of the leaf furniture. I remember the first day I got the game I tried to put a piece of furniture outside bc i thought thats what the commecial showed and when it dropped as a leaf I was soooo upset bc I thought it changed or that I lost it lol
I like the speech and trees from '11, but the '12 bench is cool.
Shame they changed the trees, I really liked the new design from 2011 and then they went and put it back to old ac trees. What's up with that?!
Of course, they might use either tree design for the actual game. We'll just have to wait and see.

Haha lol, I just watched that trailer. You're right about the girl entering the house- she looks like she's walking on ice! xD
