Rentable Bots

[xxMATTGxx]

Some news for you all:


I SPY WITH MY LITTLE EYE….

Next week, we're piloting RENTABLE BOTS in Habbo.Fi. The first Bot will have some very special functionalities, keeping an eye on your room while you're out. Once the pilot round is done, there will be a global release, but details have yet to be determined and will depend on the piloting -- stay tuned!

WOO BOTS ARRIVING
I thought they cancelled the idea?

Wonder what functions they can do!

[Chippiewill]

I wonder if they'll count towards the room limit..

[iLogan]

This will be fun.

[Mark]

Glad they decided to stick with the feature as they would be very handy!

[MKR&*42]

Sounds great, can't wait to see how it pans out in the future if the idea goes ahead! :D

[Rainbow]

Sounds really good, i'm guessing they're going to cost quite a bit of money to rent? D;

[Mattchoo]

Very interesting, I'd love to try one of these! Wonder how it will go.

[Pigperson]

Sounds amazing, can't wait :D

Will

[Samantha]

Rentable, ok so if they're going to cost a lot I hope they last a long time too!

[Seikou]

ooh sounds cool :-) i can't waitttt

[geo]

oooh this sounds great.
i hope they're a reasonable price otherwise i just won't bother ha

[Chris]

Ahh this sounds really good, I'm glad they're finally trying them out! :D

[Zuth]

About time! This should be good :D

[Andii]

hope its pixel rentables :D

[lTraditional]

Sounds great, an actual good update - shocking! I must say though, the hotel keeps getting better and better...

[:odey:]

Pixel rentables would be great :)

Sounds like some sort of room recorder or something? :S

Maybe just what it sounds like to me :S

[Mathew]

Habbo will ask their fansites to stop spamming links, yet they're happy enough to release bots that will inevitably be abused just like the Guide Bot and the whole "ff" fiasco. Obviously I'm looking forward to seeing how they will be used, but I did find it slightly ironic.

[Aiden]

Sounds Good

[Cavies]

Something like this (http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=739161&p=7457337&highlight=#post7457337)? :D

[AlexHenry]

Ooooh, Defo trying one!

[e5]

Room recording lol?

[xxMATTGxx]

Update: The pilot country has been changed to the .com Hotel!

[MKR&*42]

Woo! Got a bit fed up of .fi getting everything before us lol. I bet there'll be aload of bugs though ;l

[Mathew]

Okayyyy, so any idea when they're coming? :P

[SackRace]

Can't wait!

[OllzIsTasty]

Sounds amazing.

[Bails]

Okayyyy, so any idea when they're coming? :P

Good question.

Also them being rentable will most likely be another scam.
50c for 1 week, Anyone?

[Memorilla]

Update: The pilot country has been changed to the .com Hotel!

Are you being serious? I really hope so.

And the bot sounds cool, wish they were permanent though.

[xxMATTGxx]

Yes I'm being serious, it's from Habbo Staff.

Another Update:

[Walks06]

[SaintsDead]

i may have to save up for the bot it sounds intriguing & useful for once..

It is actually on Habbo.com now as well, I can see it now :D

[xxMATTGxx]

Fansites,

Exciting update regarding the rental bot pilot. This might be tested in Habbo.com later today. Here is some more info I managed to squeeze out of HQ:

A Rental bot will keep track of visitors in your room while you're not in there.

Place the bot in your room, and when you come back it'll tell you if there were visitors while you were away
if yes, you can trigger it to tell names of 50 last visitors!!

Awesome!

Thanks

J

[:odey:]

Hmm, not really what I was wanting :(!

Wanted more than that really, hope there are more options available in the future...

[geo]

Oh.. I thought it would have been something to place in your room and you could program a response when certain keywords were said! :( Meh, not really good use for me, but hopefully this is just the start of new things to come with the bot. :P

[GoldenMerc]

What if you have over like 150 people in your room, since you were gone. Will it tell you all that? Pretty poor to be fair.

[:odey:]

I think it's only the last 50 before you return... :(

[GoldenMerc]

Wonder what the price will be and how long it will last for lol, seems a good idea, just gone crap.

[xxMATTGxx]

Forgot to post this as I was on my mobile:

http://mattgarner.net/upload/images/2012/05/22/5TGI9.png

I was hoping for them to be able to do more stuff.

[Nick]

It is actually on Habbo.com now as well, I can see it now :D

Noo i ment i seen the info but i got the picture from habbo.com lol

[lawrawrrr]

After spending so much on plants I know I won't be able to afford one. LMAO.

[:odey:]

I hope they cost the same as like, a kitchen inspector or something :(

10 - 15c I can deal with.. :P

[Toilet]

3 credits for 1 week.

[:odey:]

3 credits for 1 week.

Is that what they cost, or what you'd like them to cost? :o

[Vause]

Is that what they cost, or what you'd like them to cost? :o

Nope they're 3c in the cat! Bit boring imo. I guess it's of no use to someone like me as I spend most of my time in the Help Desk, aha

[:odey:]

Oh thanks, just seen :D

It's also no use to me either which is a bit gutting, hopefully it's a platform for loads more different ones :(!

[xxMATTGxx]

Expect more functions in the future. If anything what Jason said to Habbox is that this is basically a pilot test. (Hopefully)

Www.twitter.com/habbox

Edit: He didn't confirm there would be more but would be asking questions about it.

[lawrawrrr]

hmmm

quite cheap, but i dont think they're very useful atm - not unless you've got a popular room?

Interesting to see what else they'll do though!

[MKR&*42]

I guess they're quite useful if someone trashes your room? (If the room is mildly popular/not very popular) It'd easily shovv you vvho lentered the room after you left thus allovving you to easily spot vvho could have trashed it - if your room vvas trashed.

That's incredibly cheap though.

[e5]

cant really find a use for this spy bot, dont know what anyone would need it for? I've just bought one for the laughs. suppose it would be quite cool to see who visits my boring room lol, doubt many will without me being there.

[GoldenMerc]

Yeh i've put one in my room, not like its got much use. Would be more eclined to buy it if it was forever, not just a week. e.g 50c to buy it etc, but with the features it has it has barely any use to anyone, who cares who's been in your room :P

[Samantha.]

They seem pretty cool, quite cheap as well! I doubt i'll get one/use one.

[Mathew]

I'd be happy paying a bit more and getting it forever rather than just a week; I don't really see the point in buying one just for a week..

The only use I can see for them at the moment is if someone was to make a quest or maze - they could find out the last 50 people who made it to the final room and then give them a prize (or enter them into a draw).

[Velma.]

I like the price. Hopefully it doesn't change, like make it only for vip or some crap.
but I wish the bot did more than just tell you who stopped by. Like I wish it could talk
or you could make it talk and make it respect you xD

[e5]

It's been taken out now, right? or is it just me? :)

[Perfected]

I can't find them anywhere either. :/

[Samantha]

Maybe there were glitches or the opinions from Habbos didn't like the bots.

[MizzBex]

I thought the bots were a good idea, although I wouldn't have payed for one

[Mathew]

Did the bot start counting down from the second you bought it, or from when you placed it to your room? :)
