[AndroGhostX]

A lot to take in from the maintenance that is now over! What are your thoughts on the new content?

-Fortune Cookies
-Scrapbook Memories
-Push Notifications
-Increases Item Cap
-New Bugs and Fish
-Perfect fruit (I actually don't know what this entails)
-New Animal Requests

From playing a little bit after the maintenance, I enjoyed the new animal requests and the fortune cookie sayings. I didn't try catching any new fish or bugs. But ey what about that 50 Leaf Ticket Stamp.... >.< And that 8 hour restock time for 2... TWO!!! 500 bells fortune cookies. Must be some extremely delicious and well made fortune cookies xD

The 50 Leaf Ticket Fortune Cookie is ruthless.

Other than that horrendously high price everything else seems fine.

 

[shunishu]

make sure to talk with tommy about the scratch card before you open any cookies. I opened the free cookie and 2 500bells cookies and they didnt count towards it cause I didnt have the card yet apparently :0

Awesome. When you catch a bug or a fish, and prolly fruit, it now tells you how many of them you have! I’ve wanted that for a while.

Gatcha is here x.x sigh just quit a gatcha game bc of the gambling aspect/low rates. But the other stuff is awesome

P.S. I’m really surprised gambling has been added to a game for children.

I didn't get any stamps opening those and I already had the stamp card as I used some Leaf Tickets and got stamps from that.

This is totally unfair. 50 leaf tickets for a cookie is insane and disgusting. I just wanted the cute furniture but now I'll never get it.

50 leaf tickets is insane. I got one because it's one of the stretch goals and luckily I got the Marshall memory piece thingy, so now I can happily ignore everything else.

My interest is rapidly declining. First, the Gulliver mindless grinding for villagers, now this.

 

[AccfSally]

I was very disappointed when I seen the leaf ticket price! Ugh, why Nintendo!

 

[Xyla]

Mm spent all my tickets for Rosie’s coz I love it.. ended up with 3 of each dress colour and the hat. But they just added a $125 ticket pack... obvious hint there lol

New requests? What do they mean by that?

Anyway, I forked out my leaf tickets just to get the pastry-shop waiter vest. It’s not a Cafe Uniform but it’s like it.

I like how when you see something on the ground, it’ll tell you how many you have in your inventory

One of the new requests that I got this morning was that Margie asked me to give her a piece of fruit ( you get to choose from you inventory ). I'm pretty sure that's new ? I hope.

I like that too, by the ways. ^^

Agreed wholeheartedly. I was so excited for this and now I?m deflated. This price is absurd Nintendo and driving me away from the game!

 

[calamitybot]

God, I think pocket camp is getting to be way too complicated. I like it best when it's simple- you fulfill requests, craft furniture, and raise friendship level. By adding more and more limited-time events and items, the game is becoming less fun and feels like more of a chore. I was really excited for marshal's and filbert's cookies, but I'm not buying them now due to the price.

 

[tamtam]

I guess I'm in the minority, but I wasn't thrilled with the changes/additions. I don't do change well, but I find them irritating. It also came across creepy when an animal in my camp said he liked flowers and he was looking at a pretty one right now. Just struck me wrong, I guess. But couldn't help thinking that was a bit icky, if he was saying it to a kid.

I'm sorry I have to rant about the fortune cookies more.

Every, single, fortune cookie with the best furniture costs leaf tickets. And if they were affordable, say 10 a pop, I'd be ok with that.
But 50 each is absurd for something with a prize that's random. And beyond that, you have to spend 500 tickets to get a choice at furniture you want or are missing.
This is such a blatant cash grab it's disgusting. It makes me so angry that they casually reminded us that they now stock a 2500 leaf ticket purchase option. I'm so angry!

Nintendo has been really good in this game to their free players so far.
In the past you could get pretty much every limited edition item without having to buy leaf tickets if you just invest more time into playing.
With this, there is absolutely no way to collect all these items without paying money for tickets. And since they're random, no guarantee that you'll even get all the items even if you pay up.
So much for the completionists out there!

Nintendo, don't do this to your fans. You are better than this blatant cash grab.

pardon my rant.

They will ask for a piece of fruit and also ask what furniture they should give another animal. I've only enountered those two requests, there could be more.

I know that PC is a spin-off but it makes me fear that Nintendo will ruin the franchise if they come out with another game installment.

This actually makes me more hopeful for a switch release. They don't typically do cash grabs like this on console games (except for dlc but that;s a different beast)

 

[Xme]

Where the heck did the free Marshall cookie go?? The one we got in our mailbox? I can’t find it in my pocket

I am happy with most of the new content and updates, especially the ability to see how many items that you currently have when you walk over or capture said item(s). I wanted this exact feature since the game was released and even envisioned the little orange icon with the item number placed next to the shown off items.

However, this fortune cookie gambling/guessing racket at 50LT a pop is quite a shocker coming from Nintendo (based on how they handled in-game currency since the game launched). I don't mind paying 50 Leaf Tickets per item, but not if I already have it. Each purchase should be a guaranteed unique item, or make the gamble at a lower LT rate. This method is crazy.

I don't mind spending a reasonable amount of real money on this game each month, it's fun and entertaining, so I support it just as I do Pandora, Netflix, SiriusXM and other forms of entertainment. This is how Nintendo earns their PC revenue, so I get it, but I think this fortune cookie cash-grab effort is a little too bold. They should've started with a more realistic model.

I think that this is a result of most players not buying Leaf Ticket bundles as they made this game too easy to advance without the need to purchase anything. If you look at app grossing data/sites, compared to Japan and other markets, Pocket Camp is a revenue flop (by comparison) in the US and EU markets, so I am sure that the corporate side of Nintendo needs to do something about that. So now, they are trying a bit too hard to entice players to spend more (or to start spending). Which is kind of a bummer for those of us who have been financially supporting the game from day one (under the impression that the purchases were reasonable).

This reminds me of those obnoxious 'mystery' individually wrapped vinyl toy characters that you find down the toy isle at Target, etc. You have to buy them all to try and get every character, but the end result is having tons of the same character and never a complete set at any given store. These companies rely on kids begging their parents to get that one special character, which turns into massive sales of these 'mystery' characters. It's a major turn off - and even though I have plenty of money to buy complete sets for my nephews, it's the hassle and BS that I can do without.
