• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

"i've moved out" villager glitch!

So then it's not safe to trade villagers at this point?
I thought that the villager glitch was patched in the previous update according to the translation of the notes someone posted.
Post automatically merged:

I really wanted to bring Katt, Merry and Goldie into my game and Punchy (to possible trade for Zucker down the line) but it seems too risky now.
 
It's a shame to hear that an even worse bug is still around. I was planning to have Flurry move in once I'm done with any of the villagers I'm not too fond of atm.

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if there's another maintenance/update tonight as Nintendo has been pretty quick with releasing patches for this game. (Unlike Game Freak with Sword/Shield, where they took over 4 months or so to even release any updates/patches to the game.)
 
Is it too early in the game for us to know if there is a 15 villager cycle like in new leaf before a villager can come back to your town (outside of amiibo inviting)?

I have Katt in boxes tomorrow if you want Katt? I don't TT tho. She was one of my island originals and just told me today she wants to move. I did screenshot the convo if need be to show. ^-^

Thanks!
I have her amiibo card actually and currently no one asked to move out of my town (I also don't TT) so I think I'll have to pass.
Thanks a lot for the offer though. That's very sweet. :)
Right now I'm actually terrified to get any villagers to leave in case the game glitches... lol.

Understandable. ^-^
Yeah, I have avoiding even using my Amiibo to move a dreamie into my own town out of fear of some glitch.
 
Guys, this is not failproof, but TT two days ahead if this happens to you, and then load up and check what's going on. This is what fixed the issue for someone else. I've also just forced Stitches out with Genji's amiibo and it went smoothly.
omg, do u happen to have a link?
or do u kno if they just tt'd 2 days after they saw the moved out sign? i might try this

yeah, i'm hoping for a quick patch considering how speedy they were with the last two!
i've seen people getting this bug from even getting regular villagers from islands, so i'm not sure how it's being caused, but i would be careful!

If you do try let us know what happens! I'm not in this position but keeping a close eye on it
 
No link because it was a friend IRL, sorry ! I gave them Punchy and he glitched, but then fixed up with the TT. I also booted Stitches out to someone who had this glitch happen with Lolly ( Blink-Cheri ) but I'm not sure what they did to fix it, so you could ask them! They are the ones I kicked Stitches for and they got him just fine!
 
I've seen people saying that the exterior glitch is still happening as well. If you force someone out and move an amiibo villager in, the new villager will still have the old one's exterior.
this actually happened to me, but i thought "wow, that's... a coincidence!" but it didn't register to me as a glitch... hm... so it's a glitch, huh? it didn't get fixed with the patch, i wonder if their houses are going to stay like that forever...?
 
yeah, their hotline was super busy but hopefully it'll slow down soon
i've sent them a dm, but i'm not sure how responsive they are with it

oh my gosh i'm so sorry! are you planning on trying to cycle her out or wait for a patch? audie is super difficult to get esp since she's new
I know !! It sucks so bad AHHH. I might just wait for the patch seeing as its still kinda risky rn. Or maybe if I'm lucky i'll find her again on an island. I hope Nintendo gets back to you though!

I had this happen to a friend who doesn't have amiibos. He doesn't have an account here so I'll ask for him:

by TT do you mean that you just kept TTing until the house disappeared or did you use amiibos as well to aid the process of fixing the plot? Thank you!

My friend just straight up skipped two days before reloading, and the villager showed up safe and sound, since the 'moved out' glitch oddly happened immediately after adopting a villager.

He came to get Shari then went back to his town. After reset, the house was up as it should be, but interacting said that she'd moved out, despite having literally just gotten there. ( I assume because he'd just had someone leave that the game somehow registered Cherry's house, and her moving out, rather than Shari moving in, even though it had the right exterior and such. ) So he closed out, changed the day two days ahead in hopes the house would just empty out entirely, but instead, Shari popped up.

Hope that helps.
 
Something kind of similar happened to me. I adopted Sherb before the 1.1.2 patch, but then after it, it was fixed and no one was moving. Then Pekoe randomly moved, and I got the announcement from Isabelle, but when I went to greet her, it said she had moved. I hope this is patched soon. 😔

I got my friend to try it out but it didn't work for him, sadly. I hope that it works for others though.
 
this thread is getting pushed off the front page, so i'm posting to keep people aware
 
Oh yikes i just kicked Raddles out via amiibo for a friend .. I'll see if they also get the glitch too.
 
I'm scared af, i have adopted 2 villagers yesterday and if they are bugged my heart will break...
Flora looks fine, she is in my island, in her house with the boxes.
I'm more worried about Cranston, the plot says is his property, he'll move tomorrow.
I hope everything will be fine... :cry:
 
So what exactly did they patch with the previous patch then if this is still happening?
