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?

I agree! I'd love to see more weather factors implemented into the game. ^^ Thunder snow would be unique because that's happened here before, although rare. Thick fog and wind (like you could see trees or the players hair blowing around slightly) are my most favored.

Meteor showers on the island would be neat. I also want a way to cheer up or calm down villagers. Sylvia made Kabuki depressed after one of their conversations and it hurt me to see him so sad. We should be able to give them ice cream or do a funny face, anything to cheer them up.
And Layered clothes! I want to be able to put an entire outfit together! Coats on sweaters on vests on shirts on tanks on pants on socks on shoes!

YESS this would be amazing. I feel like they kind of had this in Wild World. When I played wild world I didn't even know we only had a few personalities.... In new leaf the personalities were clear since villagers are clones basically. In Wild World they would each be into their own little hobby. I loved Nibbles in WW b/c she was so girly like me and obsessed with collecting clothing.... She would always ask me to get her more and more clothes. Egbert was also one of my faves in WW b/c he was obsessed with fossils and it was fun to try and find what they needed. They also talked about their dreams and aspirations more in WW so each villager felt unique b/c they all had different dreams. In acnl we know some things about villager backstories when Blanca comes but that's the only time. I wish they'd bring this back (and make it better) and do traits like The Sims.... that would be fantastic.
More personality on the animals just like mentioned and if they could interact with each other more, like in Wild World they would start talking and have fights etc. And it would be fun if they did more than just walking and occasionally fishing/shaking trees, not sure what though 
Maybe some more mundane events and hobbies like what the first game had, football and morning aerobics.
And not that I want AC to be a farming game but being able to grow vegetables as well as fruits would be nice.

I'm sorry if i'm repeated ideas anyone had earlier in the thread... its a long thread now lol!
I want the custom design system to receive a few changes. In existing clothing items there are parts of the clothing that are clearly meant to be skin coloured, yet they are not, and on characters with skin darker than the lightest shade they look weird. What nintendo needs to do is introduce 'transparent textures' meaning that they will show the characters skin tone. On the official clothing in the game from the start, this is a non issue, nintendo completely controls this and all of these can simply have the prior 'skin' tiles changed to these transparent ones.
The issue comes into play with custom designs, but there is an easy solution. Create presets that the user can use where the transparent tiles are all already there. It would be like picking a long sleeved dress versus a long sleeved one in new leaf.
So, lets imagine there is a preset called 'bikini' the bikini or swimsuit preset allows the user to create swimwear by having a normal low scallop area near the neck out of transparent tiles, and the stomach covered in transparent tiles. But what if you want the stomach covered? This is simple, just cover it up with non transparent tiles, as after all the only problem is if you place transparent tiles in inappropriate areas, not the other way around. The other presets for transparent tiles could be options like 'bardot top/dress', 'scallop neck top/dress' 'crop top' - and so on. To clarify, the user cannot place transparent tiles anywhere they do not currently exist on the presets. This will completely prevent people from being able to make inappropriate items. However, with these restrictions nintendo would have to offer a lot of presets, at least 20 if I'm being honest.
The limits only need to apply to items the player WEARS ON THE BODY! With items like floor tiles, umbrellas and hats, there is no need for limits on transparent tiles. this opens up options to make unique shaped umbrellas like the leaf umbrellas, or hair accesory patterns. and most interesting and coveted of all... transparent path options! Imagine if you favourite flower doesn't exist in the game. with transparent tiles you can simply draw the flower, and place it on the ground like a tile. It would look like the clovers that are in the game already.
I think nintendos current way of dealing with areas on clothing they want to be 'skin like' is very lazy. I think they need to fix it at the very least on official items.

Make villagers more unique. There's just no point in experience a new villager since it's literally just the same as any other villager of that personality group but with a different skin.
I'd like to see every villager have a combination of two personalities - one primary and one secondary. Add another 2-4 personalities to the mix and I think we're good.

Personally, I would like to see the holidays that mimic real world ones have their dates moved to the day after the actual holiday, Halloween and New Years need not apply since the event lasts all night anyway.
My reasons for wanting this aren't religious or political, but just for the fact that those of us that have family events to attend or work retail and can't partake in the events the days of can have a chance to sit down and experiende the holiday in-game after the real world mayhem has calmed down some.
I am a top performing employee (unfortunately) at my place of work and thus get scheduled to manage things in the absence of office assistants and managers, thus I am always there, especially on and leading up to holidays. This would give people like me the opportunity to really put time into these events.

^I think it would be nice to have those holidays take place over a few days or a week. That way even if you only have time to play for a few minutes each day you can fully take part in the festivals. And it'd be nice to be able to celebrate for longer anyway! This would be great for fishing tourneys and such too, maybe PC style.
These came to my mind!
- Toolkit that doesn't take any space from inventory.
- You could stack seashells just like fruits
- You could move camera angle freely (omg please!)
- More interactions with animals and more dialogue. maybe more option what my character can answer/say?
- You would be a normal villager, but you still could make a change. (like you did as a mayor, but I didn't like that I needed to be higher status compared to other villagers. It made our relationship inequality in my opinion)
- Sometimes villagers could ask you to design their apartment like hhd, or just your opinion like "welcome, I'm wondering here I put this couch, could you help me with it?" it would be cute
- You could have front yard and you could place furniture there too
- Even some kind of artificial intelligence when villagers answer your letters. But yeah this would be hard to do and there is problems but still, it would be cool... But like, you have really bad day and you tell that in letter and villager cheer you up a little bit. Or you could put an emotion icon with letter and villager knows how you were feeling when writing the letter. I don't even know, just thinking.

It's not really a game idea, but more of a general switch idea that will certainly make the game easier to handle online, but I hope we will be able to connect a keyboard to the switch like how we did for ACCF. It'd make typing online easier, especially since its very tedious to type a whole sentence with the joystick. as far as i know, I don't think it's compatible with the switch as of right now(i may be wrong)

I want to lead a conga line through the town!
stacyadams
Let's play a game.
A lot of people in this thread have said what I want (some of which I stole ideas from bc I like the ideas), but I'll say what I want here anyway.
Customizable floor plan
Customizable town
- choose where animals live
- choose where the rocks/lakes/cliffs are
Airport
- type of travel we haven’t seen
- use TSA to see if visitors are stealing or bringing unwanted items in
- good role for Copper and Booker
Exterior house design
Ability to turn BGM off
More realistic looking graphics/more open world looking
Pok?mon/Nintendo Cameo Villagers
- Meowth
- King Dedede
- Squirtle
- Charmander
- Pikachu (unless he looks just like the mouse villager)
Choose skin color
Lawn and/or Backyard that you can decorate
More weather effects
- Thunderstorm
- Fog
- Heavy snow
Bigger town (goes with Open world)
Player created events
Wearing more than one accessory (i.e. sunglasses with mustache and clown nose)
Ice Skating (would require a pond big enough for it)
Restaurant (maybe a high end one)
Theme park/fair
Climbing/jumping
Toolbox
Debit Card
More opportunities for trolling (I'll still play the game without this, but I'd still want this)

I want to see more things we can interact with, things we'd actually end up using. In PC, we see villagers doing things with all kinds of furnitures and amenities, and here we are, only able to look at them and not touch them.

At the very least, bring back the debit cards! Gracie Grace **** is ridiculously expensive.
Absolutely! I never understood why they removed old villagers.
Green flowers would be ugly and blend with the grass too much but aqua is legit.

I dunno the Welcome amiibo update added a lot of stuff I missed in New Leaf. I think the campsite area next to your town is neat along with the coupon feature. I love how they essentially added daily challenges to the game as a fun and easy way to earn rewards. It's just a nice extra something to do when you're done with the daily town chores.

I like all these ideas and they all mesh very well with the feel of animal crossing! Implementing ai for the latters would be extremely difficult, but you idea of adding emoticons is great! It would be nice to stick emotion themed stickers to your letters to show the mood of the letter. Maybe you could collect these stickers randomly by sending letters, if a villager sends you a letter with a letter with a sticker, you can now use that in mail.
I also like the design apartment idea, I did this manually and... its very hard. you need to send the character the same furniture so many times for them to use it, and also put it in the right place. It would be good to get this request when you have very very high friendship with the villager.
