This will go the exact same way as Habbo Mobile Chat

Smaller markets work better for beta releases.

I think it will get used quite a bit and also bring some new users.

maybe i'm out of touch, but i still think this is a big deal. this is an opportunity for habbo to branch out from it's usual market and perhaps reach a new audience. i'm glad habbo are proud to promote it to such an extent, shows how much of a push they want to give it and that it's not just a half-assed attempt (bobba bar).

of course this is a huge moment to them, this is a new platform for habbo - not just adding an nostalgic game to habbo. you think this is the only thing that might fall on it's arse once the shine has come off? tell me how many people moan about wanting "old public rooms" back, and watch them gather dust as no-one visits the ice cafe or basement lobby.

but thats not our fault right? no one visits them because they are built slightly different! OH 2006 COME BACK TO ME!! OH LOST YOUTH!!

Hear, hear!

Of course it is a big deal, its a big, positive step towards the future. Habbo on iPad and coming to Android later in the year, that is great. I think some people are buying into the whole "big announcement" thing to much. For Sulake and Habbo, it is a massive announcement. I bet they're proud as punch and just want to share it with people, I don't blame them. It is fantastic news.

If you getting so het up about a Habbo announcement, regardless of your age, I think you need to reevaluate your priorities. As I said earlier, the reactions of some people in the Welcome Lounge were embarrassing.

And Plebings, in response to your last point, you're soo right. I believe Habbo as a PRODUCT is better now than it ever has been. Trust me, I can only imagine how good Habbo would've been, if the community of 2001-2005ish had the things we had today, like wired (amazing), horses, monster plants, fireworks, mannequins, holes, the marketplace and many more. Even simple touches, like the clear and easy to navigate "My Stuff" instead of the tedious big hand and a search function in the catalogue. The main issue with Habbo is the users. The spoilt, childish, brattish reaction to this announcement is symptomatic of the current community.

Remember towards the end of "old Public Rooms", aside from the Welcome Lounge and the Lido they pretty much just all lay empty all day, every day. I know I sure as hell didn't go in them. When I first joined, I pretty much only went to public rooms, but as soon as I discovered furniture and private rooms, I rarely went in them again. Its a case of not missing something till it is gone.

200 credits is C$19.99 through the app, which is much cheaper than the C$19.90 for just 110 credits from Habbo usually. If cheaper credit prices are the same for other markets once the app is released there, it could push the app up on the top grossing list too.

ofc its a step forward but they went the wrong way about it??
i was expecting something with the new commands, that it would be something different.. all the hype and speculation and everyones ideas and it turned out to be this...!
it may be revolutionary for the habbo developers but it isn't much biggie for us lol, habbo has so much potential for change and they end up working on something out of habbo on this bloody APP!!!!!!
