What do you want differently/new in the upcoming AC game?

[smonikkims]

It'd be cool to have like an eBay in-game service to trade with others online. I don't like adding people just to trade with them and never see them again.

Also have a way to access a gallery where you can upload and download designs people make at the Able Sisters. Since QR codes won't be a thing anymore, I'm pretty sure this is going to make it into the game.

The first of these ideas is something I've seen around a lot and thought of myself, so I think it may be something that has been requested and thought about for some time. That always means there's a decent chance of it actually becoming a reality, even if it's in an update down the road!

As for the second thing I was thinking earlier it'd be cool if we could set prices for these patterns too. That way they could be sold through the game instead of having to charge for them on the forums. Of course charging TBT would still have to be done here. xD

Make remodeling Timmy’s and Tommy’s store optional. If you want longer hours, yet you spent enough to remodel, you should have the right to disapprove of expansion. If you approve, there’s no going back. If you disapprove, you can always change your mind. Not only I would like to visit the shop at the depths of the night to make an order, but the convenience store is aesthetically the best of the Nookling expansions, both outside and inside. The problem is that remodeling requirements have such a low bar now, especially when money making is easier now. Ordering from the catalog counts towards the remodeling requirement.

There's a small feature I've always wanted. It's not much, but it'd be nice if there were a separate inventory space just for tools. I find I'm always carrying around most of my tools which leaves a lot of my inventory space kind of... useless. But it's just a small annoyance. Since I've been using the mail slot as an extra inventory space, that's proof there definitely needs to be some kind of adjustment.

Character customization should definitely be expanded! It's talked a lot about in this thread, but I'd be really upset if it weren't like HHD in that aspect. Picking your skin tone and such. It'd also be nice if it were possible to change your face anytime. The "makeup" option in Shampoodle's should be just that, instead of a Mii face. There have been too many times where I'd make a new character just to have the face I wanted.

As much as I adore the music in New Leaf, there aren't a lot of tracks that stand out to me. I really liked the interesting and jazzy, bossa touch of the first game! Everything was so unlike anything I'd ever heard before, it was so unique and really added to the charm of everything. But that just might be the nostalgia talking...

And yeah, definitely more personality to the villagers would be nice. I liked the idea of there being a main personality type and then a secondary personality type. If not, then I guess just more dialogue? I get attached to villagers due to their designs really, nothing to do with personality. It's really boring to pester Snake over and over again for him to keep saying things like woohoo check out my muscles!! Like yeah dude I've checked them out 27 times now. <:'/

I'm confident the map will be bigger since it's a console game. So I'm hoping more PWPs to go along with it. It feels weird being the mayor, but I feel like that adds a lot more achievements to the game overall. Though, it'd be nice if you could choose a "casual" play mode, where the mayor is still Tortimer (or Isabelle!!!), or "advanced" play mode to be the mayor yourself. Just for the people who'd like to fill their encyclopedias and chill and stuff.

...you can tell how excited I am for this game. I went back to ACCF and was blown away by how good it looked. I'm super excited to see just how pretty the Switch version will be!! Town decorating would feel much more satisfying! Oh, and on that subject, it'd be nice for some in-game path options!

It would be really cool to be able to sell things that aren't in your inventory (i.e, in storage).

It's tedious to keep running back and forth.

 

[smonikkims]

^Yo.

I would also like some kinda way to sell things without having to run to the store... Not sure how that would work but it would be convenient!

 

[Jason Voorhees]

It would be cool to teleport to any place on the map.

These are excellent ideas and would be absolutely perfect features within the phone app.

I've got an idea for a toolbox, but I'm not sure if anyone ever said anything about this yet...

Basically, my idea for it? You carry it around like a knapsack, or what have you. It can be used to carry around 5 or 6 tools, and you carry the bag around, like the bag you get from Jingle for his job on Christmas. They can even come in a variety of colors, too!

Course, I think it would start being sold at Nooks around the second expansion?

EDIT: Can someone delete this post, please? Internet pooped out on me.

I want Blathers dialogue options to not be as repetitive and boring as it was in ACNL

Bring back the Blathers we all know and love!

Please bring back WW Blathers!

Also, please bring back some of the cute WW events like Yay Day and La-Di-Day!

Oh yeah, and a return of those villagers they used to have but don't anymore! If Smash is going to be doing the whole "everyone's here" thing, Animal Crossing should follow suit. It'd be nice to see those obscure villagers again. Meow, Champagne, Megumi, Analogue, the whole lot.

Also Woolio, rebranded as a smug because he is definitely not a jock in any way, shape, or form.

Something I have thought would be cool- if we had, or could unlock, the option to switch the hourly music to hourly music from one of the past games.

 

[Mayor Kera]

It would also be nice if the tutorial dialogue ("Hey! Do you know how to use your camera?") had a shut-off date. It's weird to play for over, say, six months and still hear those things.

I would loooooooooove this.

I just got a idea in my mind while I was reading another thread: We need sleds! I know
there a sled as a item which you can put in your house, what I mean however is a sled
that you can use in winter, like one player can sit on the sled while another player can
pull it. Or villagers! Like talk with a villager, he/she sit on the sled and then you can pull
the sled and go with the villager around through your town. It my be not that usefull,
but it would be a funny thing to have a little bit more fun in the winter time.

 

[LemonInator]

I want some more interactions with Pete as he just kinda wanders around and you can talk to him but that's about it. I'd love it if when you speak to him you could get the chance to deliver letters to villagers or find missing letters that have been dropped on the floor.

I just want more simple things that increase immersion within the game. The little additions like sitting on tree stumps and benches and To-Go coffee cups in New Leaf, though small, were huge factors in increasing that games immersion.

- Small puddles that form after it rains that splash when being run through, but disappear immediately after.

- Make weather play a bigger part in the game with weekly forecasts that can be viewed via a newspaper that is delivered to a machine outside town hall.

- Varying degrees of wind strengths

- Rustling leaves, branches swaying in heavier winds

- Varying storm intensities. For example, the heaviest thunderstorm could produce heavy winds that could potentially blow fruit away, or even damage trees (think dead perfect fruit trees in NL). This could also open the door to new events, such as special character being blown into your village and you have to help them(earning a special item in the process), or a villagers house is damaged and need money for repairs.

- Falling leaves in autumn. This was an effect in the original game but never utilized as far as I know. It could only be seen while attending a K.K. show.

- Varying degrees of snow accumulation after a snowfall. It doesn't have to be anything that slows down your movement, but just enough to see a path through the snow rather than quickly disappearing footprints.

Like the GameCube version, put an emulator in there. Perhaps a GameCube one so I can finally play Twilight Princess on the Switch.

 

[AccfSally]

Another thing, I hope they make the villagers ask for a new greeting or catchphrase once a week.. instead of everyday! (unless that's just my game).

 

[LemonInator]

I'd like to have the ability to bunch flowers together. This feature would be the same as stacking fruit but with flowers instead. It makes it easier to garden and you can carry more round with you at the same time.
