    I got the ability to island hop tonight and a shovel so think things might get more interesting now.

    Finally managed to scrounge up 30 iron nuggets to get the shop finished.

    Only thing I'm not a fan of so far is the nook miles ticket. I liked in New Leaf the island you could go to as it was different to your town. Every island I've been to in New Horizons is basically a smaller version of mine: same bugs, same fish and same basic flowers.

    I was really really hoping for the return of the gyroids. So no.

    Does anyone know if you can make your islanders move out, like you could on the GameCube. I’m furiously smacking them with the bug net in hope. I used to write them nasty letters, and they would complain to the second player about me - it was fun!

    The other islands become your main source of wood once you start clearing land for new islanders, you land with fresh tools and empty pockets, stripping them bare like some kind of locust-man from Greta Thunberg's nightmares. You can get different fruits (I've gotten coconuts and cherries) if you persevere, as well as bamboo and new villagers which are necessary for advancing the plot/DIY tree.
    Dig flowers up to transport the plant since flowers are now a harvestable.

    I've yet to find a really valuable bug. Playing New Leaf at 3am (system time) let you catch hundreds of thousands of bells worth of beetles and sharks. Nook is behind this.....

    So I've added a few for online play. Do they need to be online in order to visit their island ? Dodo ain't letting me go no where

    Yep, the player needs to be online, and needs to have their airport gates open on their end.

    Nook will get a call mid-announcement one ofthe mornings, make sure you speak to him after. This game encourages the worst in humanity - nosiness, stripmining, plying anthropomorphic animals with tawdry baubles so they'll invite you into their house....

    Island-devouring tip - it looks like if you put a flower in your hair, you put the whole stack of flowers in your hair. So your head is like a free inventory slot for blossoms. That's 1 more thing you can take home to flog!

    Aghh just logged in to see the Museum is gonna take another day to build, it's the one thing I want built so I can get rid of all these creatures


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,081 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    You've all got it wrong Nook doesn't own that studio it belongs to a guy named Harvey

    I thought he was doing 23 large in the big house.

    Put them in storage in your house

    Picking up a flower isn't enough to be able to plant it you need to dig it up you can pick up flowers too to use or sell but you need to did em to plant em

    Anyone had a spade fail during the 8-swing-at-a-rock mini-rhythm game?

    Just got a gold nugget. Thrilled.

    Getting solidly into the groove of grinding activities for Nook Miles so I can get a ticket to grind an island for resources so I can advance the plot and get more activities that earn more nook miles. Still no sign of a shark. But I caught an Oar Fish and by golly it looks insanely big.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,081 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Zebra turkey fish looks like evolution pauused halfway through that one.

    Sharks don't turn up until June according to the internet. I did some time travelling yesterday to confirm a few things and saw a shark fin in the sea. Didn't catch anything or pick up anything or talk to anyone so the universe wouldn't explode around me.

    Well I just had a great expedition on my friend's island in Australia, picked up plenty of off-season creatures.

    Damn - now you don't even have a Switch to play on the toilet or toilet paper either. Things are getting bad ! :)

    If the Museum from New Horizons was real I would be in it all the time. So nicely laid out, beautiful displays. Superb.

    I miss the Kapp'n and his shanties full of rambling advice...


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,081 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    And his granddaughter offering pennies for items she's a touch of the Nook in her


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,298 ✭✭✭RedRochey
