Fall Update is “around the corner!”

[Raz]

You know what I want (besides The Roost)?

More fruit juice. We have a diy for coconut juice, but not for the other fruits, and everytime I see a villager drinking something, I can't help but think Nintendo just forgot to add the recipes to make them. The villagers also eat sandwiches and they have something that kinda looks like soup, I guess? These would be a cool addition, especially for people who like their outdoor cafes and such.

And please, we definitely need more furniture.

I'm telling y'all, you gotta dream big. There's nothing happening in October outside of the question mark update. Silence so far for September. They're waiting, lurking, ready to strike. They're gonna wow us. One part razzle. One part dazzle. We will be shook.

...I choose to believe this and will not be talking to clouds on a sunny day on this matter.

I'm honestly expecting it to be announced between today and Friday. Or latest could be Sep 28th.

For reference:

• Earth Day - Announced April 21. Released April 23.
• Summer Wave 1 - Announced June 25. Released July 3.
• Summer Wave 2 - Announced July 28. Released July 30.

Now, here are some of the October events from previous games:

• Harvest Moon Festival. This occurs mostly during September in previous games. But we have the Moon Rug seasonal item. This is probably it.
• Flea Market. It was absent in New Leaf because it was replaced by Re-Tail. But we don't have Re-Tail anymore.
• Acorn Festival. This one feels unlikely considering the acorns can be gathered already and the Mushroom DIYs are obtained from balloons. It would interesting to have Cornimer in some way though.

As for what could possibly be included in this update:

• Halloween is a given, and it's obviously going to be a week-long event now.
• The rumored farming and cooking features might be included since autumn is known for being the harvest season.
• Brewster and Gyroids would be really appreciated to have already. It's been 6 months now, Nintendo.

But they might probably split this again into two.

The cooking seems more like a November update though. Would be too much to include for the Halloween update.
*crossing fingers for dead trees and gyroids though*

I agree with you. They should give us something big and hefty since they had basically been doing a monthly update. I do think we should get Brewster and more furniture, a store upgrade, and maybe opportunities for Leif, Kicks, and Label to get their own shopping sections or stores. Lyle still needs to come back. There is still Katrina (who would be perfect as a traveler), Copper and Booker, and Tortimer Island. There should be one last upgrade to the museum to give us more exhibit rooms to decorate.

I just don't believe that they will actually give us anything like that. So, I'm just expecting a small holiday update to get us excited for Halloween.

We may want something, we may hope they will implement as much as we want, but we still don't know yet what may happens. I really want many features from almost all of the AC games and make ACNH the best AC ever with no reason to come back to other... but only one question I may ask myself: "Is it realistic?".
As I previously said, I don't particularly believe Tortimer Island may come back, there are two reasons:
1. All mini-games being hosted on main island.
2. We may travel to Mystery Islands.

Where would the harvest festival fall if we only get a winter + fall update this year?

Wouldn't it make more sense to have another two part update for fall, one for halloween and one for harvest? I remember the turkey NPC being in the graphic they showed for the free update plans.​

Everything for now it's just a pure assumption, we don't know for sure. We may express our expectation, wishes, share with others, but we not even sure if anyone from Nintendo ever visited this forum or reading what AC community wishes.

For me it’s because the furniture and decorating is my favorite part of the game. I love collecting furniture and I love to decorate. The tasks and chores are fun too, but I have more fun decorating, collecting & making things. It’s hard for me to get inspired and use what is currently available in the game. Everything that I have been trying to make now has ended up looking up the same as other ideas, and I have been in a slump. I’ve been playing a little less but if there were new furniture or diys to collect, I think that would be the push I need to play more.

Maybe it's time for a small changes? Maybe different approach? Maybe different collections, mixing different ways? Maybe it's time to move forward a bit and do something else... But, if you really love furnitures and decorating, you may have up to 8 profiles and probably each profile could have own house. Try to imagine, how many new possibilities you will have, same island, new interiors.

Sorry. I wasn’t trying to complain or be dramatic; just explaining why my expectations are really low. I’m far from being burnt out and am still enjoying the game . I’d just like some more furniture. I’m not saying everyone else has to want furniture either. I was just saying what appeals to me . My apologies if my last post sounded whiney or inconsiderate of other people’s opinions.

No, no... there's no reason to be sorry. You have your expectations, your wishes and this is perfectly fine. I'm not trying to criticise whatever you may want, any of your dreams or visions of future updates. I'm just expressing my thoughts and want to discuss with all of you whilst waiting for update.
Many features could come back to ACNH as updates, but if they will come back or not, question is unanswered yet.

I personally would like to have something for "night live", like mentioned before Club LOL. It shouldn't be hard to implemented because all dialogues / phrases / events / rules are ready and some may remember from AC:NL. But despite the fact "I WANT", I can see in what condition K.K. is performing, what the rules of his performing are and what I can see, there's no future for such a club.
When new floor in museum is being open, we can see there's no place for new floor (above), no place for underground floor like cafe - it looks like closed and final concept.
I may ask myself: "why?" Obviously I can be wrong, but...

2001 - first version of Animal Crossing has been released, maybe Nintendo is planning to release old-new version 20 years later?
Many people likes ACNL and if we will look at following video:

we can clearly see Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival has been build on semi-ACNL engine, but in better resolution, with nice looking textures. After big success of ACNH, maybe Nintendo planning for future release ACNL HD version?
If I could share my idea, if I would be deciding what to do next, I will merge ACNL with HHD as one game, convert it to HD and sell it, not earlier than the fall of 2021. I know, if something like this could be reality, I would buy this product for Nintendo Switch... but maybe this idea for many is complete failure... I don't know.

But... dreams over, now we have ACNH, update is around the corner, so patiently (or not) we shall wait for this update, and if it will be not enough for us, wait for winter update.

My expectations are super low as well xD I don't want to get them up too high because then if the update doesn't meet them, I will just be disappointed and not want to play.

What I would really personally love is for Brewster to make a comeback and for some of the amazing furniture items that we had in ACNL to also come back as well. But like I said- Low expectations.

Looks like its not today.. damn, it would all make sense if it was today

 

[Nefarious]

Around what time are these trailers usually announced?

I'll try not to be a cloud here: I just really hope you're right. That sounds exciting.

Thank you! If it is dropping today, we still have a couple of hours. Hope it happens.

 

[Bcat]

Let’s gooooooooo farming

I’m getting bored with my island and desperately need more to do.

 

[Bluebellie]

Ahhhhh where’s the update?

 

[jasa11]

Didnt all the vids drop at 2pm uk time? Yeah I dont think its coming this week at all, which makes 0 sense

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

I know there's been a Tuesday/Thursday pattern, but I think they also like to leave it as long as possible, lol. We'll probably see a trailer next Tuesday (29th), with the update going live on Thursday (1st).

...which is kind of odd... you'd think they'd drop the trailers early to build hype? Eh. They could drop it tomorrow for all I know.

I thought it was gon be today cause the order of days they released the vids is thursday, tuesday, thursday, tuesday and now it should be on a thursday but guess not. My guess now is on the 29th which prob means they have no order and its all just a coincidence
