Animal Crossing New Horizons (Player list in OP)

Does anyone have roses on their island? I have tulips, hyacinths, cosmos & pansies. I think roses is the only one I’m missing.

If you do, can you share a dodo code?

Having to switch to the vaulting pole or ladder every time I need to use one of them is a real slog, don't understand why it doesn't just automatically use the pole if I press B at a stream or the ladder if I press it at a ledge. The tool wheel being bound to up on the D-Pad is also a confusing choice, especially because you select from the wheel with the left stick, meaning both actions are made for your left thumb. Why not have the entirely unused L button bring up the wheel, or allow you to make the selection with the right stick?

I wish it had something like Minecraft for switching tools.

You can move items around in your inventory if you press and hold the select button. So then if you put the ladder and pole beside one another you can flick between them with left/right on the D-pad.

Banjo

On top of that, pretty sure neither the pole nor ladder can break as that could leave you stranded on a Nook Miles island forever, so if you put them beside eachother once, they'll always be beside eachother, unlike breakable and recraftable tools.

I also wish you could craft multiple items at once - making 25 wooden toys just so I can make 25 wooden bookcases is no fun. You can save a few seconds per craft by mashing the A button but still not great. Also wish you could pick things off the ground faster. Minor niggles though.

I fished a tire out of a river on my island last night and also learned that you can pole vault across a river and into a hole you have dug!

Gotta sell one of my Animal Crossing to pay for a new Switch bye bye Bluebear and Hyrule

keane2097

Is there a tool or a site somewhere that shows what fish/bugs are available currently based on hemisphere and time of day? Even a spreadsheet I could filter rather than a list showing all fish regardless of the fact that I can't catch them because they aren't available after 4pm

RobbingBandit

Link below has some very useful guides they are full of spoilers so enter at your own risk

If Flick shows up in your game, don't give them the first crappy butterfly you can catch 3 of, cause they only take one commission at a time.

The swine ran off and hid so thinking theyd left I ended up selling a bunch of white mantises for face value then the bollox saunters out from behind a house and starts asking for bugs.

RobbingBandit

Him and turnip girl go hiding out at the beach or the bamboo plants for me hoping that slimball Redd makes am appearance soon too he's worse than Nook.

Banjo

Looks like the new patch tones down egg appearance rates - good news for the iron-deficient!

Edit - shudda said 'eggcellent news..."

The drop rate ramps back up on Egg Day.
I think you only need 34 or 35 of each egg to make all the furniture that you need to earn the reward.

Do you mean the game or a switch?
If the former, it's one island per switch, does it know the difference between carts?

Otherwise - No way to system transfer that save to the new switch?

Gyan84

How do you know when you have all the Easter Egg Crafting recipes ?

I found that nightmare fuel Rabbit standing over Gulliver's incapacitated body on the beach so I feel like I have to craft all the items or the surprise will be my villager's head inside an egg :pac:

RobbingBandit

Game I'm selling it to buy a Hori Split pad if that doesn't work I'm gonna buy another switch lite and cover it in diamondium

SMC92Ian

Reading back on what you lot are doing in your games I really don't know what I'm at.

Any tips for getting Iron Nuggets? Herself only has 9 after 5 or 6 days of playing and she needs 30 nuggets, 30 soft wood and 30 hard wood to build the shop.

The problem is she gets some but then her fishing rod or her axe or her shovel break and it takes one to build a new one.

She's under a bit of pressure at the minute because Tom Nook is giving her death stares to pay off another loan :pac:

The drop rate for the nuggets seem to have gone back to normal since the recent patches so you should be getting at least 3 nuggets on average for every rock - I’m assuming you’re getting the full 8 items from each rock (using holes or whatever to stop the knock-back). Before the patches I was struggling to get them also because of all the poxy eggs but it’s much better now.

Anyway, for a start I’d stop making anything that requires iron. You can get by just fine with wooden tools until after you’ve got the 30.

Bash all the rocks you can on your own island then get a few Nook tickets and do the same on those islands.

And if she’s still stuck then send over a code and I can hop on a flight with some nuggets. Some nice boardsies helped me out so only right to pay it forward.

RobbingBandit

If you go to an island dodo pilot will sell you flimsy tools for 100 miles each

TitianGerm

Thanks lads I'll let her know.

She had been get 6-8 items per rock using the hole trick so I think she was just mistiming a hit.

RobbingBandit

Earth Day in two weeks get your island cleaned up before then pull your weeds used them to make haybeds and sell the beds to the Nooklings. Keep some clumps of weeds in your storage too. But definitely get to clearing the weeds asap.

652 bells per turnip on my island this morning :eek:

I just press the A button as fast as possible and don’t worry about timings, always get the full 8.

Wow nice! My shop have been selling them for 50 and 55!

/Edit: Turnip prices a whopping 42 bells in my shop this morning! Thanks again holly.

Star Lord

Bought 1100 turnips at 108 bells on Sunday morning, used https://turnips.exchange to find someone with a high turnip selling price and sold them for 535 bells each yesterday!
Handy site for the old bookmarks list, and has a nice queueing system for anyone looking to visit open towns!

RobbingBandit

Madagascan sunset moth wtf that's the weirdest bug I've caught so far

Banjo

anyone tried the Forecasting tool for turnips?
https://turnipprophet.io/index.html
Didn't buy any this week so haven't been paying attention myself

AMGer

Got the Landscaping app on my Nook Phone yesterday. Can see myself getting a lot of hours out of this!

holly_johnson

I’d love to visit other people’s islands, but they never have their gates open! Does anyone want a visitor? Friend code: 5977-8954-4666

RobbingBandit

I'm trying to get KK on my island am very close need to pick up the random items I've dropped all over will hopefully be set to open my gates by Sunday

Does the gate stay open until you close it yourself?

My island is too boring to visit.

holly_johnson

Omg. I’m on an island right now that is *crawling* with tarantulas! So many that for every one I catch I’m knocked out by another. This island is the stuff of nightmares. But also loads of bells!

Are your turnips still selling for a high price? If so can I visit? I added your friend code earlier

No sorry, the price plummeted after lunch. The price changes every day after midday. But please send prayers. This island is so tatantula filled, I’m being knocked out by 1 for every 1 I catch! It’s horrendous.

RobbingBandit

Turnip price changes at midday unfortunately

I haven't been lucky enough to come across tarantula Island yet. Fill your pockets and make a mint from the Nooks.

RobbingBandit

One very important thing to note if someone does have a great turnip price and we all visit and sell our turnips that person's Nooks Cranny will upgrade I sold 7m bell worth of turnips on an island and the Nooks Cranny upgraded it was selling some special tools after the upgrade too

SMC92Ian

Anyone out there willing to let me come to your islands? I just wanna mouch around for a few flowers or fruit my island doesn't have and use the shop. I'm new to this so I won't be ruining your island as I wouldn't know how.

Gimme a few mins & I’ll post a dodo code. I’m still stuck in tarantula hell. Once I get back home I’ll post a code while I cry in a corner.

RobbingBandit

Max amount of turnips I can currently carry is 4000

40 lots of 10

If you time travel to Sunday morning and the island you are visiting is on a day where Turnip prices are 500bells or higher the instructions below are how to get rich quick

If you visit another island you can drop those 4000 on the grass go back to your island and buy 4000 more the person whose island you are visiting can pick up the turnip's take them to the Nooklings and sell then drop the bags of bells for you and just keep repeating this till you're both filthy stinking rich

holly_johnson

I’m in some kind of island hell. They just keep coming. I’ve cleared no plants, trees or weeds. But they’re everywhere. EVERYWHERE. I can’t catch one without being knocked out by another. It’s my worst nightmare. But I persist coz I’m too scared of Tom Nook & his “mortgage”

RobbingBandit

It's a special island dig a circle of holes around you completely and then start swinging the net at them when they come close

RobbingBandit

I'm gonna try to find spider island tonight hopefully won't take too many tickets

holly_johnson

Holy effing crap this was the most intense island I’ve ever been to I don’t even know what plants or fish were there! It was literally infested with tarantulas! I must have been knocked out a dozen times because for every 1 I caught there were 3 at my ankles. The stuff of nightmares!

312,000 bells somehow it feels like it wasn’t worth it. It was the most horrendous hour of my life!

RobbingBandit

I'm dreading finding this place I'd rather commit Turnip fraud

It was the most horrendous experience I’ve had. For every 1 I caught there was another 2 or 3 at my ankles knocking me out. I’m so traumatized

RobbingBandit

Yeah fcuk that spiders are evil incarnate I'm not doing it
