Glitches from the Adoption of Villagers

[Doudy]

i really hope everyone who has this going on is reporting their situations to nintendo. this HAS to be fixed ASAP. i keep praying that it's fixed before my amiibos come in the mail in a few days but i sincerely doubt it lmao

idk WHOS feet i need to kiss at Nintendo but y’all actually need to go out of your way and report it if you’re experiencing this issue. I usually never report bugs but like this ones actually so annoying

I reported the issue through the number in the OP. The person who helped acted like this is the first time they heard about it. They did say they would forward it to the proper department to find a solution though.

I do call + text. If you got time, give them a call and stress how game breaking it is lol.

Has anyone tried this without time traveling? If so, were the results the same? If not, I’ll take one for the team and see what happens if you just wait out the move in completely.

Nothing happens.

Nothing happens.

What does “nothing” mean here?

Is it true they have to be forced out through Amiibo/Campsite?
I got the glitch today after adopting Shep from someone yesterday. They swear they don't even own Amiibo and Shep was TTed out with the ? over his head.
It's totally possible they're lying to me of course.

I hear that while amiibo don't have to be involved, they could be forced to move if say a villager at the campsite wants to move in and they talk it out at the resident building. Apparently that can also trigger the glitch from what I understood.

I had received a villager before and was told she moved out naturally and I had no issues. If the person said that they got the villager to move out naturally with the thought bubble, then it would really suck if that's another trigger to the glitch. I'd hope they wouldn't stoop to lying, but if what they're saying is true then trading villagers is just not safe at all at this point.

How reputable was the trader? I feel they were lying, since villagers don’t ping a “?” Over their head to move — they have thought bubbles, now. In the future maybe ask for a screenshot for proof that they asked to move and weren’t forced?

This is unfortunate that such a game-breaking glitch managed to slip through the cracks. Really feels like something of this magnitude should have been discovered during testing, especially given Nintendo's strict quality controls. Thanks to all of you who have been informing people of this bug, as something like this needs to be known by everyone.

After the 1.1.2 patch my Shep plot went from the blank name to available again. Not as good as actually getting Shep but hopefully they’ve fixed the problem. We’ll see I guess.

 

[RoxCross]

Yeah the same thing happened with my Eugene plot. Super sad I didn't get him but at least I can make friends now.

 

[Doudy]

Patched. Enjoy kiddos.

 

[Underneath The Stars]

IT WAS PATCHED???? OH MY GOD

 

[zooblenoodle]

yup it's been patched!! no more issues now C:

 

[CowKing]

It got patched? Hurray!

 

[DawnDays]

it shouldn’t affect villagers who are regularly moving in right? just the empty plot glitch?

 

[Doudy]

It got patched? Hurray!

Yes I just said that LOL
