Do you think there will be thieves like there was in NL?

[sierra]

There will be thieves where ever but Hybrids "going missing" was pretty predominate in New Leaf. To be fair I was more active in a different forum before I knew about Bell Tree Forums so maybe thieving isn't as big of a deal on here.

Also I was thinking since we can place regular furniture items outside, can that be stolen too? I know no one knows for sure yet but I'm hoping there's something that detours people from taking each others stuff. Yaknow?

Thieves?
Like people you invite over to trade?

Never had anyone steal anything.
I've had someone fall asleep during a trade though.

i hope not; i’ve never had anything stolen from me, thankfully, but there’s definitely a lot of thieves out there.

i also hope that the only people that can pick furniture up that you’ve placed outside are the people who live on the island.

I figure any furniture piece displayed on the island wouldn't be able to be moved by guests since they can also be dropped in leaf form.

o_0 how does one fall asleep during a trade

I'm bit worry for that and anyone who feels like they have to go to other folks towns (usually in groups) to destroy them.

Yeah, people i'd add to get petition sigs, do tours with, use eachothers shops.

We had set a time for me to get a villager and the person fell asleep.
I had a random villager move in, and basically ruined a large area of my town when they moved in front of a bridge.

I didn't know about plot resetting back then.

I will never do that again though.

That is so foul. That happened to a friend, someone chopped all their trees. Like how much of a demon loser can someone be.

I'll take it one further and hope the only person who can pick up furniture is the one who put it down.

OH i thought you meant you were in someone’s town/they were in yours and they fell asleep lol

i like the way you think

tbh i hope permissions are added, like separate permissions for friends and just visitors. like permission to pick up or place things, permission to hit trees/rock, permission to dig up things, permission to weed, maybe even permission to talk to villagers (might be too much tho there's no harm in talking to villagers).

That would be good as I don't like anyone talking to my villagers, because in past games they will keep bringing up that visitor, forever.

I highly doubt other players will be able to interact with your furniture outside. Nintendo should be aware of the issues New Leaf had, so if I were them I'd add settings for strangers vs friends visiting you. Like strangers couldn't interact with anything on the ground while friends can pick up - also you would be able to visit strangers via code and not by adding them on your friendlist. But we don't know what they're going to do. I imagine they'll do something about it though.

 

[tajikey]

I imagine there will be some sort of trade mechanism that allows you and the other person to initiate a trade that both have to agree to before finalizing.

 

[pinkfawn]

I've never had anyone steal my flowers or anything personally, usually I only invite friends over who I trust, or if someone was coming over to pick up a villager I would walk with them to the villager's house and once they've convinced them to move in, I'd save and end the session right there. I'll probably do the same thing this time around as well, and if someone is here to pick up an item they've bought from me or are trading, I'll be waiting with the item at the area players arrive from.

Well the person kept my TBT and I got nothing.

There will always be people that don't have good intentions. Which is why you should supervise people you don't know closely.

As for furniture, I imagine if you set it out to display as the furniture that it's not moveable by people not from your island. I imagine the leaf form would be able to be picked up.

 

[MapleSilver]

I hope they include some sort of safeguard against people stealing things in your town. That way I wouldn't have to follow people around while they do things like gather signatures. If there is no way to prevent stealing though, I'm sure it will be just as bad as in New Leaf. Every online game has its share of people who simply want to be given items by other players, and it's a bad idea to give those kinds of people the ability to take items without asking.

Well now we can fence in our hybrids!

I'm pretty sure the thieving and such was mostly little kids who don't really comprehend that they're not the center of the world, so it shouldn't be a problem here at TBT. As for the permissions thing... I think it might be too complicated for Nintendo. They'll assume if you have a friend code, you're friends and know each other! BUT: maybe visitors can't even chop down trees in this game and just banging them with an axe only pops out wood to collect. How do you even cut down a tree now anyway?

I just hope visitors won't wear away my precious tender grasses.
