Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp still repairs old features to repair the ship

Last week, Nintendo announced a paid subscription service in the game and things looked bleak. Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp had turned into a game where most new content, such as clothing and characters, was hidden behind the premium currency. Then, Nintendo announced two subscription services, one of which pays $ 7.99 a month to get storage and five loot boxes.

Nevertheless, a new update contains some promising features that have revived my friends list. Players who have not been online for weeks have registered and are playing consistently again.

The latest update of the game has resolved some of the game’s biggest issues. When the Gulliver’s Ship feature was updated last month, players were not happy. It started out as a place where you can recycle extra furniture for some pretty good rewards. Then it morphed and forced you to exchange rare materials for items that nobody wants.

The latest update has made it possible for you to send everything – extra furniture, crafting materials or the rare things you want – for good rewards like Fortune Cookies, the game’s loot boxes. Now that you can send pretty much anything, Gulliver’s ship is worth a visit, even if you do not necessarily want the shirt you have.

Players can easily bring fortune cookies from golden islands that appear on Nintendo

All players also received a month-long trial of the Happy Helper subscription plan, and while I hate to admit it, it’s pretty good. The villager of my choice (I have chosen Carmen) follows me, and if I do not play, she does tasks for me. And she not only does the jobs I have at my disposal, but also does a series of errands that I can not access. So if I help my villagers, I’ll double the reward.

I do not know if I’ll consistently pay $ 2.99 a month for this feature, especially if Animal Crossing: New Horizons is released in just a few months, but I can fully understand why people are on my Pocket Camp friends list could stand for the AI ​​helper decide.

The “Cookie and Depot” plan remains disgusting. It’s terrible to pay $ 7.99 for five loot boxes. Many items in the game require the Premium Currency Leaf Ticket. There’s still a lot of bad mobile game play money in this game, but when Nintendo listens to players and fixes things we hate, I give them credit where it’s due.
