• 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.

What do you think is the worst news about AC:NH?

The worst news is that I have to get through half the school year before it comes out. Luckily it comes out on a Friday, so I'll be able to play after school.
 
That we don't have double screens that let us see the maps easily so I'm going to have to open the map every time I want to know where I'm going. I'm sure I'll figure out the layout and ditch the map eventually, though.
 
I agree with donnell crossing about we don't know enough about the game yet to determine anything bad about the game! I hope there will be nothing that is bad about the game though!
 
for me, it is definitely the cloud save issue ...I am paying a service that I cannot use...thank you nintendo
 
It?s on a deserted island. I find that kind of depressing. I have never been a fan of feeling isolated. This is only a very small issue but it was slightly disappointing to me. I?m also not sure how I feel about incorporating the craft making from pocket camp. Whilst I love new features and stimulating game play, animal crossing (in my opinion) requires a certain simplicity that I fear my be lost by adding crafting and activities from so many aspects of the game. What if I want to pull out a weed without having to stress or worry about the things that I could make with it. My other concern with crafting is that it will remove an equivalent of Main Street which I would dearly miss with so many lovely characters and less isolation by having it. Who knows! I am overall (despite sounding quiet negative) feeling very positive about the game. Very exciting
 
It’s not really “news” since this is a switch thing not a NH thing, but I’m sad there won’t be any Streetpass. I came to NL too late to get many streetpasses and it makes me sad! I want to feel caught up in the fervor of a new game. Like Pok?mon Go but AC!!
 
I'm not even mad about the delay to be honest because I kinda expected it. Probably the "worst" news for me is that we're only allowed one island per Switch. I share my Switch with my brother so it would've been nice to have at least two islands between us. This game is pretty much the only reason I'll be buying my own Switch haha. Other than that, I'll pretty hyped for the game, there's plenty of time for improvement on the niggly things right now.
 
i don't like that you can't just buy a second game if you want to restart and that there is no cloud save. also i think it's very different from the other games and that makes me kinda sad. i don't like crafting and the energy system that much, too
 
The only thing that really bothers me is the lack of cloud-saves. Come on, Nintendo, trust your fans that we're not going to abuse the feature because it offers us peace of mind. Imagine working on a town for three years only for your Switch to break... R.I.P. town I guess? I mean what's the freaking point of the feature if you won't even let us use it?

Yeah, the delay kind of sucks too, but the way I see it the longer the game takes to finish the better that it will more than likely be. And since we've been waiting for this a while now, it really needs to be amazing.
 
I was a bit iffy about the crafting at first, but as long as it’s not like Pocket Camp I’ll be ok.
And as long as the shops already exist and we don’t have to gather materials to build them, like, “Oh, so you’d like yo build a clothes shop? Certainly! We will need 1,000 wood, 500 hardwood, 100 iron ores, and 450,000 bells. Much thanks, I look forward to its completion in a literal week, hoho!”

Also, from all the footage shown, there are no natural dirt patches. Just a blanket of lush green grass. Reminds me of the hacked towns I visited in NL. Probably means there will be grass deterioration though, just wish there were already dirt patches to begin with.

But from now until 3/3/20, I’m sure a lot of things will change.
 
Crafting. I get that they want to add new stuff to the game and make it different than previous entries, but it honestly looks so boring and feels like something I'd dread doing.
 
Mmm the fact that it’s on the switch so my family would want to play too. Meaning that we all have to share the island. I prefer being alone haha as they’ll ruin it. :/
Also I’m nervous for crafting. I feel as though I’ll get used to it and look back at this post and laugh but it’s something new and different. And different scares me :p
 
If I ha to choose, it would be the overall see of the island.

If the island is all that consists of the games world, then I will be hugely disappointed that they couldn't make more areas to explore.

I would hope they came up with ideas for other places where we can maybe travel to and do things.
 
I think I'll most miss street pass. It was a fun feature in NL and obviously wont be in NH.

I imagine cookies wont be in it, or work the same at least. Again, a fun little feature missing from the lack if features on Switch.

I wont be using cloud saves either but not having the option? That's disappointing as Nintendo continues to drop the ball on this lackluster """service""" we need to use the online I already pay my service provider for.
 
Cloud saves not being an option....I mean I get it, it’s to deter cheaters, but what happens when the switch dies unexpectedly? All that hard work you did? Gone. Never to be recovered. and I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t just start a new town/island right away... I’d put it away on the shelf for a while just to take a break...

Stupid of Nintendo to offer a service, then say you can use this game with this cloud service... splatoon 2 still has cheaters....yet it has no save cloud either.... this makes people want to mod their switches even more, only to have the security that your saves are protected.
 
I think the lack of cloud saves is a really big issue. Nintendo would have had the opportunity to do something right here, to fix the anxiety of losing save data that's been with the whole franchise day one. And it's a little ridiculous how there are many games that wouldn't really need cloud saves have them anyways. I could imagine how devastating losing save data for any Animal Crossing game would be, and this is a missed opportunity.
 
So far the thing about cloud saves and one island per switch. Also not to keen on the auto saving but it probably won’t be such a big deal to me when I play it since I play ton of games with autosaves, I just prefer not doing it for AC :/ I guess i’ll just have to get used to it.
 
My least favorite thing in Animal Crossing New Horizons are probley the flowers, and bing able to plant whole trees. I just think they dont look very, or feel very realistic. Other than that, the game looks great!
