what actually killed the hc

[AgnesIO]

Yes i am not an old player. I started playing back in 2009 so 2 years this year when they were devolving the "beta" for habbo (which back then it was v26)

Thats how i assumed

Fair enough

If you don't know (or are wondering), you used to be lucky to get a new version of habbo every six months. So v9, believe it or not, was only in 2007 ish (can't remember exactly when)

If you want to see more interesting things about version releases, go to: https://habbox.com/index.php?opti...365&Itemid=218 It has all the releases from version 6 onwards, to make it easy for you to find each version you want to see

Wow... and I thought supersize rooms were relatively new. I've played this game for too long *sigh*

No worries I have always found Habbox's guides useful for little bits of information. They have lot's of other guides here: https://habbox.com/index.php?opti...911&Itemid=218 too. Although I only helped make the Release ones :L

[Nick]

haha yea i have done a quick "scan" but i never seen the releases (i dont think)

Yeah Habbo kinda got wrecked when they started bring out new updates every 2 weeks. It took years to go from like V7 to V9 and when you did change version it was a rather BIG change that was brought in. I remember when i first left in 08 it was like v21 then when i came back it was like v50 i was like... wth? And now we are on like v63. Although i think since Beta they changed it from v to r so it's r63 now? I think it either means release 63 or revision 63 not sure.

HC price peaked at 80RD and then it dropped to 60RD (or was it 60RD peak and dropped to 40RD?) one of them anyway and I remember the RVR Manager saying on Habbox it will not drop again.
It is a huge shame that the Market Place was invented. It was invented to kill off fansites rare values departments for one main reason. However what it has done is taken the fun out of trading. Before I remember that if I needed something, I used to run around every trade room and shop looking for stuff and it was actually quite fun when building a room as it took effort. Now hardly anyone sells in trade rooms and shops are ... well not what they used to be. If you need something now, open marketplace and it will be there. Yes it saves time but it has ruined trading - one of the main features of Habbo.

Another thing I dislike is that trading has been disabled in Games rooms. This means that a lot of classic games like Bingo, Races, Takeshis have all disappeared. I have not seen a decent Takeshis in ages - and I mean ages. I quite used to enjoy them, or Bingos. Now its all wired games, bb and freeze, which just sucks. Yes they probably disabled it to avoid people scamming prizes, but still, it was a stupid decision.

And wow, prices of Grey BBs and aloe have dropped dramatically since before the merge!
Merge may have brought more new people, but I dislike the changes which have come with it. Maybe they would have come even if we didn't merge, but they still suck.

The RD value at the time was seriously inaccurate - especially after the grand exchange came in. Realistically the HC was worth about 30-40 RD all along - and you would normally get around 10 lodge corners per HC - one lodge corner being 3c. But then the grand exchange came in and suddenly lodge corners were only worth 1c each - HCs were now only worth 14c each - rather than the previous 30ish.
