The ACNH Rant Thread

So apparently... players who share an island like me and my GF can't both play the snow ball game on the same day? Can't tell you how frustrating this is. My GF excitedly built the first snowboy and got the ice pillars DIY and now I have to wait till tomorrow and make sure she doesn't play it before I get to it? I hate this :mad::mad::mad:

The only thing that those who don’t make the snowboy miss out on are the large snowflakes required to make them (and since you get 4 from each snowboy you make over the next few days you should have plenty to go around). You can still grab the diy from the snowboy if you want to!

To add to this, the Snowboy needs to be perfect to get the DIY. Since today was the first day of making them, my main character (who built the Snowboy) got a Frozen DIY. But because it wasn't a perfect Snowboy, my alternate character didn't receive a recipe after talking to it.
 
ugh honestly i feel like a lot of how they handled the 2-player stuff just sucks, like why cant players choose between sharing islands or not? cheaters will cheat the game regardless of what exploitations they can find with multiple save files u know?

i havent even tried to do any of the snow stuff yet. i was really frustrated with how they handled all the autumn stuff. disliked the really small time frame for autumn leaves, i have barely any time to play this year for school and it is so hard to be able to find enough time to play to find recipes and leaves and pinecones and acorns!! like yeah theres trading, but id rather just play on my own tbh. which brings to me to my other point of how they restrict items in the shop to increase trade between players, but i just think its so awful like i do not want to trade its such a hassle lol!
 
Yes, this has happened to us too apparently. She got the DIY and I can't have it! (making crying baby sounds) lol
Haha, totally understandable. I was under the impression that the first Snowboy ever made on the island was guaranteed to be perfect, but apparently not. XD Tomorrow me and onwards problem...
 
How?? I talked to her snow boy several times and he just complains about his head melting before his body.

BTW, I built a ring of camp fires around him just to make us giggle but he doesn't seem to be melting faster. Missed opportunity Nintendo! heehee
As @TheSillyPuppy stated above, if the snowboy isn’t perfect it won’t give diys or extra large snowflakes. Since your GF made the first snowboy of the season she was guaranteed to get a diy, but others can’t get them. On subsequent days (unless each unique resident is guaranteed a diy on their first snowboy: I never found that out though), if a snowboy isn’t perfect they won’t give anything and will only complain.
 
I once read on here that flowers in this game are more annoying than weeds...

They are! I wish we could just pluck them rather than have to dig them up, fill up the hole and use up a tool use.

Also if it keeps snowing as often as it does I'll probably be forced to spend a couple hours putting down transparent patterns. If I have to spend so much time and pocket space cleaning them I'll be less inclined to log in for the day :(
 
reading abt this two player stuff makes me incredibly happy i dont have to share my island with anyone lol, i'd be distraught 😭i have problems with the usual stuff (no mass crafting, able sisters changing room, breakable tools) at least the breakable tools u can get around w the customization trick, theres no way around the endless menus for the changing room. OR the airport for that matter 😢
 
I feel it's halfhearted when you can group some things in your pocket, not others and I mean, what's the point? Unless it's furniture and possibly clothing (Although we all tend to probably buy the same clothes in different colours) I don't see a problem as to why they can't.

my only complaint is with donations

Once you donate a certain amount to Nook, he will no longer accept donations as you have to wait for Blathers to finish setting up. I picked a spot for the museum, and since I started the game at 3AM at 5AM it became a "new" day and Blathers was already set up. So I excitedly went and donated the stuff I had for him. But once I donated 15 items he stopped taking donations as he is now in the process of updating his tent. This means that I cant donate any of the new fish or bugs I find today. Right now I just have a stack of fish and bugs outside the museum that I will hopefully donate once Blathers accepts donations again...
ALSO on topic of the museum I was kind of miffed that they shut down the WHOLE museum just to install the gallery when in real life they'd probably just have some scaffolding up and inaccessability of that area.
 
This is more so a rant on my own stupidity.

I needed to catch a bunch of chambered nautilus for a room I'm making and I though they would still be around in December... well they aren't and now I'm about 5 short. I only noticed yesterday after I had finished a mock-up of the room I want on Harv's island.
Now I have to wait until March to make this room since I don't TT... Really wish we could trade critters right about now.​
 
Why is it you can only get one large snowflake a day. I don’t really want to tt for the amount that I need. They don’t have to appear as often as the small ones but it would be nice if you could catch one every once in awhile. I want to use a good amount of arches and partitions but will have to change my plan since it will take all winter to set up.

I was bothered by this too and have come to understand now that a "perfect" snowboy will give one large snowflake per day until it melts in four days ... so technically after four days of making a perfect snowboy every day we will be able to collect four large per day. It still sucks given the ice scenes I wanted to start working on but it's better than the one a day I thought.

I see yea that makes sense just have to wait a bit thanks. I might still change a few of my ice areas but that does make me feel better about it.
 
The museum being an odd number of tile spaces is still one of the worst things about this game. Every idea I have for landscaping, every time I want to redo my shop or museum area, the 7-tile spaces ALWAYS ruins it The museum is right in the middle. You have to have 3 tiles. And what can you do with three tiles? Nothing. Because all the inclines and bridges in this game are TWO tiles.

Nook's is 7 but it hasn't bothered me as much. The museum? Torture to plan. I'll figure something out eventually but until then... 😩

Now that I think about it... I know Nook's is likely to upgrade into something like Nookington's again so maybe 7 tiles makes sense but as it is right now, it doesn't make sense. It's such a small shop, yet it's as big as an entire museum on the exterior?! At least make the museum 8 tiles... you know... an even number... one that lines up with the bridges and inclines... ;)
