Island Designing Ep. 5 - Beach Boardwalk

Finally back to decorating my new island and in this video I'm getting you all caught up with the most recent additions, specifically the boardwalk that you all suggested. Your suggestions help me out a lot, so keep them coming!

[@morganbates1575]

A small dog park could be good in the first area you need an idea for. A mom's plushie, the pet food bowl, the garden faucet, a bench or two, and some bushes. Not too much, but could make an impact.

[@rlewis36]

I think somewhere in those bare spots you could have picnic tables. It's so close to the farmer's market. Who doesn't want to take those honey and fruit snacks they just bought and sit down for a bite? Also, if you're worried the surfboards look too summery for the changing seasons (I think they look fine, but I feel you), maybe you could use the sled diy when you get it and put some knitted winter hats. Or some bikes and helmets.

[@cnr0118]

I totally use the outdoor bath as a sort of garden pond too!! It just looks more like a pond to me and I love the sound it makes too😍

[@cassfg1234]

A small library in that second spot would look good...

[@bmole3349]

I literally just typed that and then looked at the other comments and saw this

[@CatMuto]

Man, I woke up at 5 AM! Urgh, too early to be awake, I can't fall asleep again... *fires up New Horizons* Ah... already... sleepy...

[@amandaslough125]

The section by the Resident Services should definitely be something like a park bench with drinking fountain, but more relaxing than the bus stop. That way you're more likely to have animals sit at it since there's someone walking around RS as is. Or a news stand to transition the farmer's market from the plaza vendors. The bottom section really should be a park of some sort, being so close to the plaza and airport. The grass section is small, but you have a small beach down there too. So the grass section can have most of the trees, but you can extend into the beach. Which also would be great because your bridge will be right down there. So having another path heading towards the beach from the bridge would help entice people to walk down there, and give you more room to work with. Fences work on the sand, along with indoor plants, and you could reuse the cobblestone path throughout both halves.

I don’t even play animal crossing but still love these vids. Glad you’re feeling better :)

[@nevereatsoggywaffles1109]

You have too, it’s such a good game

[@luckyarchery]

I love the late night music and the early morning music in the game. It makes terraforming at 4am so much better

[@rogreywolf8371]

I regularly log in at 5 in the morning because grad school SCREWED UP MY SLEEP SCHEDULE...but you're right, that music is peaceful af. I love it. Plus none of the villagers are usually awake, so I can work on the island uninterrupted lol

[@cgpd6329]

That’s why RyanFtW does his 5am chill videos 😺

[@nikkababe]

When I was sick with covid it really messed up my sleep schedule so many a nights or mornings I was up playing at 4 or 5am. 5am has the prettiest music. I think 2am is also pretty ? You should check those out too.

[@drrichardew7878]

3am on the other hand...

[@franceliatrejo6064]

maybe like a painting spot with some stools and the paint sets? or an open “lounge” for all the visitors?

[@arithiana29]

in the small area you could do like a little painting area or blanket picnic spot! and maybe for the skinny area by the sand like an outdoor laundromat area?? there are cute examples of all of those on pinterest! love these episodes from you they always brighten my day :) hope you fee better soon!

[@eirianf]

I also use the little outdoor spa thing as a water feature, I only recently realised it’s a bath 😂. But it looks cool so... Loving the Stu appreciation, he’s my bestie and I love him loads. He lives next door to me and has a big garden because he’s my favourite.

[@livereater4462]

Oooh, maybe you could do, like, a fortune telling space in that little spot? Or maybe a little picnic thing?

[@whitmanproductions]

I had just recently logged on around 5 am one morning because I had to wake up early and oh my gosh the music was gorgeous! Glad other people are just finding that out now too 😂😂

[@bludangell]

That background music is so beautiful and chill, could listen to that all day...🖤

[@MysticStorm9431.]

I don't play this game but have been watching your vids since playing fallout 4, a little over 3 years ago, always love the commentary on your vids and always love the builds! Keep up the good work!👍

[@blind_gamer16]

I love 5am!!!! The music is super chill...

[@sofia_hk]

The board walk looks sooooo pretty! I was like wooahhh :D

[@AtomicSuperMe]

I took the little grass bit that sticks out on the end of the island and raised that as a board walk/dock where you can fish and jump off of, and I think I might continue the board walk all the way down that side (so bottom of right corner up the the river right above that grass extension) so I can put some shops. on the raised platform with it, or I put the shops on the ground next to it but still in the theme with the board walk

[@rogreywolf8371]

ALSO that first spot you talked about...what about a cute little park eating spot thing? It looks like it's by your farmer's market...so if you use the log table and benches, you could create a little eating spot. Maybe throw in a grill?

[@thebeautywitch9155]

Omg yes that soft piano music comes on my island late at night and it’s so dang peaceful! I literally feel like things will be okay and it helps me fall asleep lol I thought i was the only one but I’m happy you realized it too! Love your vids🥰

[@sunnyquartz]

glad your feeling better! the added details and boardwalk are looking great. In that area, you could always add a small orchard or farmland for the farmers market. (I'm pretty sure we'll get more crops than pumpkins too) or have like a holiday/seasonal display area. something to change around for the holidays or seasons that's going on.

[@xXxDinEnesteEnexXx]

I remember I used to aspire to make an island as good as yours.

[@guhhuh6757]

Wow great vide Cordless almost as great as the glorious Kim Kardashian

[@al.puentesh313]

In the small spot near resident Services, you can put a picnic zone

[@culpy2449]

Glad your feeling better btw I love your editing

[@randyftobias]

I like the boardwalk. I don't play this game, but if it's possible, it would be cool if you could add some sort of planks down the middle of the sand for the boardwalk.

[@Kirabeth5]

I love how much you love stu

[@kimberleydavis6819]

A seafood shop in the area by the beach would be cool

[@veleo9641]

You are the best

[@bmole3349]

For the new area you could make a small library for the villagers.

[@Purple_Usagi281]

This past week, I logged on after midnight and heard this melody. If there was a way to have this playing all day, I would.

[@Iemonaide]

Wow great video CordlessVII! you know what I think I’m done with KZbin gag, too much work

[@Iemonaide]

I’m still gonna worship kim on discord

[@Puppy52]

Hope you feel better soonest! And I love the early morning music, almost as much as the island beginning before town hall happened

[@pepperandchebbels387]

Animal crossing the bomb when you play it and for the little area you should put like some playground equipment not a whole lot but I think it will complete it

[@culpy2449]

Wow I love your animal crossing creations, there’s just one thing wrong tho, NOT ENOUGH BATHROOMS!!!

[@LeeisCool-yy6zk]

I love this so much

[@enriquenunez6973]

bro nice island!! you’re the best animal crossing youtuber! love the edits and your island man

[@ruby_g]

5am is really the best time! Have you listened to the music playing when Nook Shop is about to close? It’s also beautiful. 🤩

[@aliviarydz]

you should make a little picnic area! 💗

[@kenziefurin4740]

Picnic spots? Or some flower beds!

[@Crazypeople246]

How about cliffs? Unless if you wanted to keep the main part of the island more flat, I’d suggest some cliffs to help break up the space and make the island seem bigger cuz you can’t immediately see what’s behind the cliffs

[@phillynation2906]

Man next month is going to be really busy for me, need to get the Series X, ready pre ordered Valhalla and Cyberpunk, can’t wait

[@theshiningemerald4288]

I just found your channel, and I crave more videos

[@gl2675]

Wait...so he's sick, and there's peaceful and calming music.... Coincidence? I THINK NOT!!

[@lololelei8297]

Empty space could have a park if you have kid villagers such as cody

[@cam5275]

I think a green house or a outdoor movie theater

[@superluigiodyssey1337]

Wow

[@cnr0118]

🤣🤣 Was the "little comment" comment an office reference??😂 either way, amazing bahahaha "she's always got somethin to say" 😂

[@NimbusDeluxe90125]

cool

[@thetanman4464]

I love it! Glad you're feeling better. For that lower empty place you could try doing a sunken waterfall with some statues and a jumping path through the middle, I think that would look cool. Also why's ur hair brown again, didn't you switch it to blue?

[@anonbobanon7320]

What about a wheat field? Ive seen people use just weeds or the yellow hyacinths as wheat and it looks super pretty

[@JustCallMeMeghan]

I trust you....

[@maeganmariee1879]

Maybe a community picnic spot?

[@bonkeyboy1713]

You should add trees in the space

[@niniseconda5839]

Maybe a picnic spot?

[@emilyerojas]

4 days ago and I didn’t know??? *clicks bell*

[@andrewfilmsproductions9351]

You should do like a really nice garden in that small spot

[@JayDayKay]

A little cafe for the little area you have open? Idk you probably already did that

[@RaptorShadow13]

A dog park! 🐕

[@TheOrangeDealer]

If ther was three mods in fallout you would want to added to the base game what would they be?

[@callmejago6654]

Your voice is so charming

[@dankzilla981]

Murder dungeon should go in the next spot?

[@enzoparise]

Early kind of🤣 love ur content:)

[@Macarontonic]

More crossing of the animals

[@jamescallaghan270]

You still plan on releasing vault vii?

[@umarmotala323]

A tiki bar or a park

[@SpenceBeaw]

What happened to the zelda theme island you said you were going to do and was planned to do? lol

[@CordlessVII]

That was a tour of someone else’s zelda themed island that I did

[@arabelle1773]

Can you please give me the code for that sand path?

[@CordlessVII]

just added to the description! Sorry about that

[@yazzybananas3106]

Why does it feel like this video went by too fast? I guess I missed ya! 🥺

[@IARESMART8]

You're sick too?

[@Midna29]

Me, looking at the single dislike on this video within the first hour of it beong posted: but why

[@colsanders2035]

Please tell me there’s going to be more fallout 4 🥺

[@IForgotMyUsername5000]

Fallout 4 please
