New HC Prices!

[Samantha]

They've updated the general information:




Also, they've changed gifts back to monthly, not sure when this happened, but they did change it to 2 a month for some time.

It's a bit confusing though, if you bought HC on the 1st of the month, do you then get 10c on the 15th? Or just 5? Then the next month when it gets to the 15th and you're still HC, do you get 10c or 10c and another 5/10c for having 7 days consecutive too?

Ridiculous. Luckily I already have 6 months so the issue of renewing wont come up for a while. Hoping this is an April Fools prank.

With the streak thing you sort of get half of the creds back but still have to have the diamonds which is rather more annoying



Looks really shoddily put together so idk could be an elaborate attempt at a joke but it does also seem like something they'd think is a good idea so won't be too surprised if it's just a coincidence with the timing and it really is here to stay

Added note: it's still £3 a month on the credits page, preeeeeeeeeetty sure that would have been spiked a lot if this was going to be a real thing but it could be that they just haven't noticed yet

You've almost done it and are SO close! Soon, you will be forever known as the Habbox.com /Top Investeggator .....

on the consecutive months thing where it says 30 days - 10c 90days -15c etc, couldnt you just get hc for 30 days then don't renew it, get it for another 30 days and so on so in the space of 90 days you'd theoretically have 30c? if that makes sense

unless ive misunderstood idk


truly has to be a joke though its ridiculous

[FlyingJesus]

The 90 days thing isn't cumulative as a 1-time reward, it's how much you get each month if you've had X days of HC without breaking it, so doing it 1 month at a time and then having a day without each month means you'd never get more than 10c a month

Well, the new HC "center" doesn't even work for me. Apparently I first joined HC on either 10th June or 6th October 2010 (thanks Habbo for not specifying) but my total HC days is over 8 years. If it's from the start of the streak, then I know I didn't have HC when I came back in 2012 so it's false either way.

Either way, seems fairly ridiculous and I won't be renewing my HC. I won't even be buying credits ever since I was denied I Habbo Home gift

It doesn't work for me either. Mine also says First joined HC: 10-06-2010 when I've had consecutive membership since I joined. Also says current streak is 0 Seconds lol. And it doesn't tell me what my next reward will be.

Is 10-6-2010 when they changed to the newer badges or something? I think everyone's is showing as that

No, but 10th June 2010 is the date we fully merged to Habbo.com so that'll be why!

I think this is an appalling decision but also probably hints at the kind of financial issues Sulake are likely going through due to the drop in players and ad revenue. Literally the ONLY reason they would add Diamonds to the cost is to make you buy credits instead of using the gold bars etc and as a result giving them more money. I have a feeling the current Sulake are massively regretting the the introduction of Credit Furni all those years ago.

They really need to look at themselves and try and figure out what is going on, Habbo was once a very popular game which means at some point it had a winning formula. All this is going to achieve is annoying people and pushing even more people away. It seems all they are doing at the moment is thinking of the business side and not thinking how these decisions are going to adversely affect there player base, sure there are likely plenty of people who will still buy HC and credits, but its these kind of decisions that make people think twice before playing.

Just checked and they have now modified the credit purchasing etc, you used to be able to buy HC via Mobile in AUD and this has now changed. Also 1 year of HC is $62.99 AUD if brought all at once, no thanks!
