November Update Speculation thread

[jasa11]

Really hoping the announcement trailer drops within these next few days. They are usually posted at 8am cst (about 3 hours from when this post is made) on twitter if anyone wants to keep an eye out for it.

U can actually tell if theres a vid coming before its posted. They drop a private vid on their AC youtube playlist about 30 mins before the release.

That’s actually really good to know! Though, I’m hardly ever awake at 8am, much less 30 minutes before, to be around for the hype that those private videos probably causes hahaha. ^^

I am so excited for the update I hope we get new buildings and new furniture do we know that day that the update comes out?

I think we just know late November as a date... After the maple leaves stop falling i assume.

I love @mattu 's hopes in the orignal post! Cooking a feast for the whole town sounds like an amazing idea.

Personally I think we'll have a small festive update like we've seen for Halloween etc, with big content like Brewster's saved for next year. Once we get to April then we've had a full year and the seasonal updates won't seem like such a big deal, I think then they will start bringing in bigger things.

In terms of my hopes I just want to see Gyroids back. Digging up fossils is pretty pointless for me these days so there needs to be a reason to check out those holes again. Plus it would be nice to have something to look forward to after the rain instead of just attack of the overgrown flower beds.

waay sooner than that, harvest starts at 26th so the update is gonna be out way before that, probably this week

 

[moonlights]

my prediction is harvest festival will be somewhat similar to how it was NL, whereby the event occurs only on the day and you have the opportunity to obtain furniture and DIYs that can be crafted after the date has passed (a lot of food items I hope).
not too sure about Toy Day, but I did enjoy how it was in NL so I won't complain if there are similarities!
I was fully expecting the update video on Friday but ig they're making us wait until right before the event. I'm hoping for a trailer today or tomorrow, and then update on Friday? idk if they have any order to when they announce the updates and how soon after they release it.

 

[Rosch]

All this wait is killing me. I just want to know what we're going to get.
How late is "late in November"? Harvest Festival is next week.

 

[ikouluke]

Oh right! So you're saying Harvest Festival is Thanksgiving right, which is the 26th? (didn't play NL this time of year so don't know)

An update announcement this week makes sense then how exciting!

It’s impossible to predict when the trailer will be dropped too because the Spring, Summer Wave 1, and Summer Wave 2 trailers were all released on a Tuesday or Thursday and then suddenly the Halloween update’s trailer dropped on a Friday. The only consistency is that they all dropped at 9am EST. So now every day this week at 9am I’ll be anxiously waiting...watching...hoping...

The time for the update sneak peek and the actual update to drop on our islands is coming soon and I am biting my nails !

Gosh I hope after all our discussion in here, we will somehow, all be content with it ! I dont know you guys but my expectations for this upcoming update is so big I find myself afraid and excited at the same time haha, its horrible!

I think after all be have said and what i have read so far, for me although i have many expectations and desire many things to appear in this update, as I have mentioned before, HOWEVER what i am really really hoping for i guess is Brewster man ! hahahah i need to see my little character running with actual coffee and I so want to know how my villagers like their coffee or their beverages ( always open for new things ) !!!

Speculation: We have been forgotten. The update and the trailer are gathering dust as we speak

 

[MayorofMapleton]

Uhhh toy days coming with this update aswell lol

I don't think so, just cause Jingle was shown doesn't mean its a guarantee. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. But I'm more inclined that we'll just get a Jingle/Toy Day bumper and date for their own update.

Ugh I don’t want you to be right but I wouldn’t be surprised if they did this. I’m hoping that since this update is so late in November that it must have both holidays included. We’ll have to wait and see!

It does mean its a guarantee lol. Toy days a month away, they always release thede big events in updates a month before the actual event. Sorry but you make 0 sense. Thats the whole point why they added jingle and franklin together in that picture. After this update there wont be another one till late january which is the last event update(pave). Might be something late december but judging how updates were released its very unlikely

Alright, if so great, but I'm not going to sit here expecting a big update. Too many people think they know what will happen and set up these updates to be bigger than they think only to get disappointed and frustrated.

I'm going to stick with the update just being the minimum harvest day update and be pleasantly surprised if its more.

The fact that the update hasn't dropped yet makes me feel like cooking might not happen for Thanksgiving after all since it takes time to grow crops. When pumpkins were added and needed to make new items for halloween, the update started on the 1rst of October, giving us the entire month to grow pumpkins for DIYs. Idk, I really hope I'm wrong and Nintendo doesn't disappoint us.

edit: I'm also surprised the update didn't happen today (beginning of maple season) since maple season is from 16-26 and thanksgiving is on the 26th, so it would have been a perfect time to add a bunch of new stuff with the new season. If the update doesn't happen tomorrow or the next day at the latest, I'm going to start thinking that the new content is just going to be a simple one day Thanksgiving event and not a group of new items (like new crops). Alternatively I could be totally wrong and maybe Franklin is just going to give us crops/seeds on Thanksgiving day or something to grow after the holiday. This is less likely seeing as maple season marks the end of fall (harvest season) and the beginning of winter, which is not when you would grow food irl, but who knows at this point.

Yeah i feel like sadly cooking ( if it will be ever added, hopefully) It won't happen just right now, maybe in a future update they will surprise us with something like that. I really cant wait for them to surprise us with new mechanism and dynamics not seen yet or at the very least improved mechanics

Yup, I feel like although they were definitely leading up to it with the introduction of pumpkins and farming code words discovered by data miners, its just not going to happen this time. I also feel like they did plan for it but perhaps ran out of time to finish it and decided to save it for another update, again based on the fact that the update isn't out yet as of Nov. 16th.

In terms of my hopes I just want to see Gyroids back. Digging up fossils is pretty pointless for me these days so there needs to be a reason to check out those holes again. Plus it would be nice to have something to look forward to after the rain instead of just attack of the overgrown flower beds.

I'd love a return of Gyroids too...but if they do return, I hope there will be a dedicated space for them like in the museu because I don't think my storage will be able to handle the influx of all the different types of gyroids. :0

Maybe as they plan to introduce more furniture, clothes, DIYs and miscellaneous they might eventually upgrade our storage room ? I mean it would make sense that they would, now we just have to hope that at some point they would actually do it haha . Cause I guess someone in the development team would say something no? as they introduce more things we will be needed more space
