I just started playing this last night. It’s my first animal crossing game. Anyone mind if I visit their island? Not much to do on the first day. Planted a ton of crap and paid off my 5000 miles. I’ll try to observe etiquette, but I’m going into this kinda blind.

I'm kinda new to this (first AC game), and very reckless. I just blew my entire fortune on turnips the first time they were offered.

I know prices rise and drop throughout the week, but are they random? Or do I need to hunt around for islands to sell on the last day where sales are possible for maximum profit?

There are certain patterns they follow but they're essentially random, later is not necessarily better.

Does this just apply to your own island, or islands in general? I was planning on looking to the AC hoard and picking the best I could. I know there is a random element, do do they stack on each other (even if they're both negative and positive) or do they select within a range?

edit: Thanks for the quick responses!

edit2: Is there a better way of storing turnips? I just dedicated a room to them.

I just found out that the elephant watering can waters in an arc around your dude. I've just been using flimsy tools all along. I know the third upgrade for axs cuts down trees. Are there other tools that benefit from being upgraded, other than durability? I've just been using the flimsy tools as they were easy to build.

And if you customize them it resets their durability, so they can last forever and the cost can be quite small. If you remember to maintain your tools.

Though I'm experimenting with going back to flimsy fishing rods and bug nets. If I have crafting benches all over my island, and I keep a stack of sticks in my pocket, I just don't care if my tool breaks.

There is a nook mile reward for crafting tools after all. I got this game at launch, played every day caught every fish and bug, and I'm barely at a thousand tools crafted. And the final milestone is three thousand so... not sure if that's going to happen.


But yeah, the axe is an alternate upgrade- you can go from flimsy to stone (same functionality but more durability than flimsy- gets you wood leaves trees intact) or flimsy to metal (same durability as stone- this kills the tree). Metal axe and watering can are the only functional changes with upgrades though. The rest is durability. Including the golden tools- the gold watering can waters even more, but other than that they're just durability upgrades.

So the only bit I didn't know is golden watering can is further upgrade? If so, then thank you, dude!

edit: I'm barely 3 weeks. Never played any AC games before.

Fishing Rods only break when you catch something.

Shovels can break if they dig up anything. Even a weed. Filling in a hole doesn't effect them.

Later when you get two other items that you craft, you get unlimited uses. It'll make sense once you get them.

You can get a candy going to other peoples' islands. It's one candy per day per Nook's.

To anyone needing either a candy or an animal nose to go with your cat girl costume, Wugis is open.

If you want to water my flowers in the north, go ahead, but you'd need a pole to get there since my bridge is still under construction.

Do fruit trees need different conditions to grow? I planted 4 non-native trees with one space between them horizontally, and they all grew into full fruit trees.

Then I planted the same types in rows underneath this. Two paces vertically, one space horizontally. Only the cherry trees grew fully, but only the last orange tree in the row started growing.

If you feel appreciative, please water my roses in the north, or toss a few bells for me, since I blew all my wad on the turnip market and land sell plots, and have nothing left for construction. :geno:

C.J. is in the north. You'll need a ladder to get to him.

Able's has a flashy animal costume, a pig nose, and a crown if you have an extra 1,000,000 bells laying around.

I've put out colored pumpkins (yellow, white, green) for people to take. Please take no more than 3 of each to make sure everyone can get some. I've already grouped them into bunches of 3, so you only need to grab one bunch of each. Planting a colored pumpkin guarantees the pumpkins that grow will be of the same color.
