So unless im missing something you can't buy ANY of the habboween range without buying additional credits in order to get "pumkins" So basically habbo are saying you know the credits you already have? useless. Buy more.
:S
Thread moved by runeaddict99 (Forum Moderator): From 'Habbo News and Rumours' as I feel it is more suited here.
I agree, this is terrible.
I saved up 430c just to buy some new Christmas or Habboween furni, and now, as you said, they are useless!
That is stupid but just another way for habbo to earn more money!
It was only inevitable, along with the selling of the costumes. Two things I was just waiting for Sulake to do have just come true.
Can someone tell me if those costumes are permanent?
That's so annoying, ugh! Like db said, are the costumes permanent? :P I like the executioner.
same thing expected for christmas tbh
Well as a habbo who does surveys for credits like i get over 100c a year or so, i tested this with surveys and i got pumpkins pretty cool but as its not fair for people to have to buy, but maybe the quests will give pumpkins.
As much as I agree that it's a rather cruel thing to do to users, Sulake need revenue at the end of the day (as much as they can get if they want to even achieve/beat what they earned last year based on the Channel 4 scandal + global mute) so stuff like this is to be expected.
It's annoying when you have credits not spent and you simply can't use them on any of the new stuff they bring out because you have to buy even more due to the whole pumpkins thing. It was okay doing it now and then but each time? Gets annoying and also boring. But Sulake is a business and if people do buy credits for this then it makes them money.
Effects last 30 Days. @McDonalds;
3 credits for something that lasts 30 days? Hmm, not great. Considering you'd get 3 leis (or 5, not sure) that lasted a week for 1c, wasn't it? Sorry if I'm wrong.Quote:

30 days, could be better as well, then again it's habbo :P
This is how they earn money? What would be the benefit of adding new furni if they don't gain.
Well, there is no way I'm buying credits ever. Last year the effects were given out freely. I have hundreds of credits I want to spend and I can't even buy a thing? Pile of BOBBA.

I thought I already bought one, but I don't need anymore creds :( It creates such a **** atmosphere. Last year everyone was in their effects and halloween costumes. This year, barley no one will have them. Definitely won't work in the long term and just create customer dissatisfaction. I will not be happy if they do this with the christmas range too.Quote:

Because on the credits page it says "Pumpkins are the ONLY way to get some of the latest Habboween costumes and furni!" So unless they give out pumkins for free I don't see it happening.
I hate when Habbo do this. Nothing but money grabbing idiots. I hope that sales get out wayyy down so they will wise up and learn how to actually work Habbo
We don't but we are just expecting them not to due to the other promotions where you buy credits and get a number of X which can be used to buy the furni and what not.Quote:
