• 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 want differently/new in the upcoming AC game?

Be able to change my face and skin color freely any time I want like I?m pocket camp.

I?d also really like it if pwps were eliminated and we could freely place furniture outside
 
One thing I'd love is a couple extra players in a town at a time. If you could have 5 visitors as opposed to 3 it'd make a huge difference. I'm also a fan of bigger towns.
 
- The ability to have a backyard/front yard to place furniture there
- More clothing, face, and hairstyle options (AP:pC is doing a great job with this)
- More villagers, and more villagers added to Uchi and Smug
- More furniture sets/furniture items
- More downloadable content
- The ability to redecorate villager's houses (Like HHD)
- More PWP options
- More flowers/collectibles
- Player created events (kind of like in The Sims 4 Seasons)
- More things to do in multiplayer
- Game created paths (I like the cobblestone in the game, but I have to use player made paths which don't even fully match it)
- The ability to place buildings where ever we want (no more having to map reset for the perfect map except for rivers & coasts)
- More town name and character name characters allowed
- The ability to use amiibo figures and cards to spawn in NPCs/Villagers
- Birthday parties have minigames
- More part-time jobs
I have more things I've thought about but they haven't come to me yet. Even if I don't get any of my wishes on my list, I'm still happy to even have the option to play an Animal Crossing game on the switch.
 
Eh I'm seeing like huge lists from everyone and I'm like I just want to see different levels of wind for a new weather pattern. Or thicker fog.
 
I'm probably just gonna repeat what a lot of people say lol but here's some things I want to be changed/added :0

- better player customization (like how it is in pocket camp + new hairstyles would be cool)
- more storage pls thank
- fishing improvement (at least in new leaf, and in my opinion, it gets tedious at times bc the fish sometimes act like they never see the bob when it's right in front of their face :/)
- having legit pathing options rather than patterns on the ground that only look like paths

tbh that's all that I can think of right now ?\_(ツ)_/?
 
The dialogue for sure. It gets a bit repetitive after a while especially when you've maxed out your friendship with a villager. And also reduce the furniture tradings/buying by a lot. The villagers always seem to make a habit out of it and it annoys me so much. Happens to me 45% of the time and I hope Nintendo addresses this issue.

Oh and the tiles as well. Have like those triangle tiles so we could finally make proper diagonal paths.
 
The PWP system. After a while it started to feel kind of hollow, and PWPs on top of like four houses started to make towns feel cramped. To be fair I don't usually have multiple characters in Animal Crossing, but I know some people keep them for pattern space and whatnot, which brings me to my next wish:

More pattern space per character. There really should've been more space, between being able to customize furniture and the introduction of Pro designs.

Also I guess I wasn't really into the whole mayor thing in general. This is probably something a lot of people won't agree with, but I don't want to have too much control over the town and the villagers. HHD is a fun little game, but I don't want to have to set up the villagers' houses for them or even be able to redesign them (unless this is something optional). At that point it feels less like my character is living amongst the villagers so much as they're controlling them, and that makes the game less fun for me.
 
@ Timpani The mayor felt like they had a reasonable amount of town control to me, and home design is your job in HHD, but yeah I imagine people here would go wild for that idea to be imported...

I'm uncomfortable by town control things that also intersect with real money, like the Amiibo. Hope its run its course.
 
For the love of God, please do not force us to buy new items/dlc to get the villagers we want. Provide an option in game to bring in any villager we want.

When you think about it, a create-an-animal feature wouldn't be that tough to implement since they follow basic templates.

Also, does anyone else want more depth and variety in dialogue? Would new personalities do the trick or perhaps variant versions of the current ones available be better? Variation depending on animal type for example.
 
I would like to have interactive PWPs like a ferris wheel or a rollercoaster that even your villagers would be able to use, a man can dream right
 
I want it so that villagers don't plop their houses wherever they want them. That got frustrating fast.

Same.

You know what we need to be in AC Switch? Something more powerful than just simply a mayor. Maybe a city planner sort of role even, where you get more power to dictate exactly how your town is set up.
 
More immersive villagers is a big one for me (more dialog, more interactions, more effects based on their personality, maybe even moods?), and that bank card from ACCF would be great! Anything involving more customisation is a huge win for me too! :D
 
They used to have proper moods and stguff way back in Wild World and the GC edition, but alot of parents complained their kids were getting easily upset over the dialogue so nintendo toned it waaaaay down and made the villagers all super happy instead, like in NL they rarely get angry compared to how often they did it in WW or GC
 
I'd like to see a new shopkeeper that sells jewelry or something...like a magpie or something
 
? More town fruits (like Grapes) but it probably isn't happening

? Ability to layout designs in town using the touch screen rather than walking and placing a pattern one by one

? More PWPs (preferably Illuminated)

? Higher villager limit

? More town map options in the beginning

? Ability to destroy/relocate Rocks

? Have Puzzle League and Desert Island Escape return along with new features in it.

? Introduce a Switch furniture piece that allows you to play a board game esque game (like Amiibo Festival but being able to use your own villagers and also having upgraded features.)

? New Villager species

? Compatibility to Pocket Camp with the ability to transfer furniture/clothing and also being able to obtain those items in-game regardless of having played Pocket Camp or not.

My boyfriend said he wanted some sass back into the game, which I can agree with to a certain extent. New Leaf improved things in such a way that it rendered games like Wild World nearly obsolete. That said, Wild World had great character dialogue in a way that New Leaf didn't, IMO. They watered down Blathers, who no longer gives you fun information on what you donate. Celeste was relegated to the gift shop instead of helping you make constellations, and the cranky and snooty neighbors usually aren't either of those things. I'd like to see more dialogue options from the villagers and just more personality overall, like in Wild World. :3
 
I really want some new species, hopefully tortoises and hedgehogs.

I'd also like the return of being able to mail items to another town via Nook, just like in the GameCube game so you send/receive items without having to be online at the same time.
 
I'd like for villagers to have the sass (and, at times, flat out rudeness) back that they had in past games. For the personalities where it applies, obviously. I felt like it was toned down a bit in New Leaf. For me, it's part of the charm.

Also, I kind of don't want Re-Tail back. I prefer just doing everything at Nook's, and I used to really like Flea Market day, which Re-Tail seemed to replace.
