Game just updated

[glow]

omg that article says the GOOD NEWS is that the hacked trees are still available. *facepalm* you know, the ones that have been bricking people’s whole effing saves if a villager interacts with them. Thank goodness Nintendo didn’t take that away from them.

can you share your evidence for this?

 

[pocky]

Nope. There's tons of people not updating yet (like possibly massduping NMT before they update.) Man that's so sad LOL. (I mean, it's their game but I can't relate.

i'm in a discord where someone mentioned having over 55,000 NMT stashed away

 

[Fye]

They've removed Isabelle.

I wish

Isabelle is sweet and all but I just really want someone sassier to take the night shift like they did in WW

can you share your evidence for this?

this entire thread includes several examples of people who got corrupted save data and entirely wiped islands from having the hacked trees.

How can those even fit...that would be covering your island entirely of NMTs...

Some people need to let things go, man...

the evidence of it corrupting save files and creating dead tiles has been debunked as false. i would still be careful because nintendo collects data on its players so there might be a risk of getting your console banned, but so far there has been no evidence of anyone getting banned either.

well a stack of 10 takes one space in storage, a fully upgraded house has 1,600 storage spaces, so 16,000 tickets can fit in one user’s storage. 55k should be easy if you have four users on your island.

oh I was off bell tree for a few days and must have missed this update, my bad.

yeah I would still not advise doing it, going into a game and butchering the code is dangerous in a game like this and there’s no telling what the ripple effects will be. And yeah, there is in theory a possibility of Nintendo banning hackers from online play but what really are the odds of that happening.

BTW. It's proven that it doesn't cause dead tiles nor corruption but the fact that it isn't legitimate and a modified money tree, you still need to be careful of future patches that might roll out.

Damn. I can't put that much effort on a declining currency (since inflation). If I had to dupe anything (if my morals weren't in the way) I'd dupe Celeste DIYs and Seasonals. LMAO.

not entirely patched, sadly. 1x1 items (not NMT, materials, etc.) can still be duped. will not disclose how, but hopefully they'll sort it with the next patch.

hHHHHHHHHH i just want an economy that doesn't get screwed to heck and back with the duplication glitch, is that too much to ask

it doesn't though, OPs post was debunked by a Tumblr user. commenters showed people posting a screenshot of corrupted saves but that's a screenshot that was passed around a lot when everyone was saying duping would corrupt your save too. the user that posted that [dragonair] even deleted their post/comment linking that screenshot iirc

the other evidence was someone claiming their friends save was corrupted but there wasn't any proof / they didn't link their friend

if there's several examples then i missed them all.. all i'm looking for is one first hand account tbh

yeah it looks like I was just out of the loop, I wasn’t paying enough attention and didn’t hear that it had been debunked. Sorry, my bad!

I'm actually glad they've patched it. Maybe sellers will start asking for reasonable amounts for Raymond in the future.

 

[FireNinja1]

Also, while we're on the topic of patching the dupe glitch: Does Nintendo not realize that preventing new people from duping does essentially nothing to stop the problem? Anyone who actually cared about duping has had more than enough time to establish a set up that will work post-update. I'm not sure whether this should even qualify as a patch or a bugfix, to be honest, because it has patched / fixed nothing.

 

[LambdaDelta]

tbf, it's not like they can do anything else

duped items should register as 100% legit, so there's no way to distinguish between what was and wasn't duped, meaning they can't just get rid of it all or anything

I can't imagine why someone would need that many NMT. I have almost 400 right now that I've gotten via trades and whatnot and I've had to stop accepting NMTs as payment because I feel like getting through my stash will take forever.

Thats how I feel too with my 100 nmt leftover. Like I got all my dreamies, already filled my art section and fossils, don't really need a particular item for trade. What do I do with all these stuff? By this point I switched to payment in stacks of wood lol.

I prefer materials as payments also since I don't really use NMTs for anything other buying stuff on nookazon. Materials I can get a lot more out of.

I wonder if they made Redd more frequent. I had him last week and I had him again today after the update. Also no repeat DIY's today but that's probably just luck.

 

[Xara]

it seems it was just another update to patch up some stuff like the duplication glitch ;u;

Might be a coincidence but I also had Redd today.
