• 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.

Update v2.0 + HHP Discussion Thread

If its only found by Kapp'n boat tours then is is going to take a very long while to complete, but its fine I learn to take my time and not rush.
I haven't tried it for myself yet, but apparently, you can also get new DIYs from bottles on NMT islands. You could try that. I've also farmed balloons for a while and it keeps giving me seasonal DIYs I already have (except Acorn Rug).

Also, it rained on my island yesterday. Managed to dig up 2 gyroids + 4 fossils today. I've read you can get a max of 3 gyroids, but it could be random (1-3). I'm glad the gyroids are separate from the fossils.

I am smart and I hid the fossils in the back area of my island so that I manipulated the game into spawning only in areas where the Gyroids can spawn in. Yeah you can say I had most of my island covered with wooden pattern, but I made sure to leave grass spots for the Gyroids to spawn in.

I had all my fossils buried in the beach, but moved them before the update. Now that I know gyroids are separate from the fossils, I might have to bury them back there.
 
You can also find vine (maybe moss?) DIYs on the archipelago beach, there's a new bottle every day.
I TTd around a little and every DIY I've received so far (granted I've only gotten 3 DIYs total lol) has been vine related.
 
So I have a 2 questions regarding HHP lol. There might not be answers to this yet but I'm giving it a shot regardless.

If you invite a villager to the archipelago, and they move out, will they still keep memories? Will they keep their vacation home? (I assume they would, but just making sure.)

If a villager moves in that you've already made a vacation home for, will they remember you from Paradise Planning? Or will there be 2 copies of the villager?

Thank you if you answer!!

The answer is yes and for some strange reason your villager stays on your main island while at the same time still at HHP. Clone villagers I tell ya!
 
Has anyone noticed new Trash clothes from the recycle bin? Today I found this ripped doctor's coat and was wondering what else might've been added since I think the damaged clothes you can get from it are really cute.

Also pictured are the new Knee Bandages (socks) and Cast (shoes), both just from the clothing store. Has anyone seen new injury/damaged themed clothes?

From a quick glance, the Dirty Tank Top is the only other clothing I can see that's new to the recycling bin clothing. For new injury clothes, again, from a quick glance there's the Eye Gauze and Head Bandages.

Do I need 3 star island to unlock HHP? I have a new island, and I'm just wondering when I can access it.

No. You just need a house, and the resident services building built as far as I know! But definitely don't need a 3 star.

Oh, okay. Thanks! My residence services is still a tent.
 
Just charting my progress with HHP and marking down any notable events, since I don't think there's still a notable guide for it yet? (went from 5 houses -> 16 houses + 3 facilities):
  • After the 6th house, you get more work clothes + more Poki per house and can design the school
  • Designing the school unlocks changing room sizes + windows and entryways - Room size cannot be changed in your home or at Photopia
  • After the 7th house, you can use amiibos in HHP
  • During the 8th house, you learn how to use partitions
  • After the 8th house, you get the DIY for a partition wall
  • After the 10th house, you have a celebration party
  • After the 11th house, you get more work clothes + more Poki per house
  • During the 12th house, you get different polishing effects
  • After the 12th house, you can build 2 more facilities (restaurant, cafe)
  • During the next facility you pick, you learn about changing lighting
  • After the 13th house, the Happy Home Academy allows you to share homes/facilities online
  • After the 15th house, you're able to use DIY items you've crafted before
  • As well, when I talked to Wardell at this point, he allowed me to buy things even if I didn't have enough Poki (though I have more than enough right now, lol)
  • Moss and vines slowly come back (I only saw 2 of each)
 
Something just happened to me, will spoiler it:

So, I just went back to the HHP island and I found Leif wandering around by the entrance. When I spoke with him, he told me he was here to visit the school to teach a lesson on flowers. He let me lead him there, and it played out a scene where he taught the class (with you, the player, also taking part) about hybrids. Once it finished, my player celebrated and stated he learned how to decorate with hybrid flowers!
 
I just dug up a glowing spot and there was 5k bells inside instead of 1k like usual. On Night Owl ordinance, so I don’t think it’s related to that
 
Does anyone know how often the furniture for sale changes in HHP? My switch was dying before I got a chance to buy any and there was super cute stuff I don't want to miss if it changes tomorrow.
 
Please tell me that Brewsters cafe with every visit and every coffee that you take every day, will make him more happy and unlock things as time progresses because otherwise my heart is broken .....

in NL i could say which coffee i wanted, the amount of sugar and milk i wanted. Now i jist go drink a random coffee and thats it ? Anticlimatic!

plus! Where is my take a way? And also on that note here i was thinking at least about tea ...

Am i the only one disappointed and in distress ?

I believe it changes every 24 hours at 5 AM, much like Nook's Cranny.

yes, you can befriend Brewster by ordering coffee daily. you unlock takeaway after a handful of days, as well as other things like a recipe and furniture as you continue to purchase coffee. while you can't add sugar (that i know of, for now), you can also add milk after a certain point. there's nothing to be disappointed / in distress about, because it is in fact a feature.
