Yeah, I thibk they're changing it to 'before 2021'.

At this pace, Chloe is gonna finish her new client before Habbo does. Retros progressing further than Habbo, so weird, and so good.

What about the closed Beta, nobody knows anything about it and the Beta testers? It makes me think that maybe it still isn't even 'testable'.

The fact that they ONLY show mockups is worrying too.

Do you have some sort of URL that directly links to the claim? Maybe even add an image (screenshot) with it

Bye forever room trading.
The "relatively" soon announcement sounds like another month without any updates.

Since there was the beta open for people to test, this thread has been moved back and you can create your own threads if you wish, about Habbo 2020 in this official Habbo forum section.

Hey, the beta is open... Let's talk about?

 

[Joopie]

It's a massive disappointment.

Holy poop its slow. It took like 3 minutes to load on my Intel Core i7...



The UI seems to be designed with tablets & phones as primary devices (the font is way to large on a regular laptop/computer). But with the market shifting towards mobile gaming for the last few years (at least for the age group Habbo is aimed at) this seems like a very wise business decision.

However, neglecting a large proportion of the current userbase (which is mostly pc users) seems a bit weird. Its not that hard to make the UI responsive, certainly with a larger development team. Since they are switching to this new client, starting January the 1st, this is probably what we will get.

didn't have any problems with speed on a ryzen 7 but man is the font large. rip sulake

 

[Joopie]

I got the tip to hit alt + 1 to "fix" the large font size. It was a lot better, but it's still crap.

 

[The General]

It's a massive disappointment.

And we didnt even have any expectations!

 

[James]

It's horrible. They managed to rip the last bit of Habbo out of Habbo. It's slow and ugly, took 3-4 mins to get to the hotel view on my gaming computer. I get the UI changes to favor tablet, but I don't see kids downloading it on their tablet at all, I see them skipping it altogether.

Not sure about the load time everyone's complaining about. For me it loaded in like 20-30s.

It would have been more pleasing if they kept the pixelated style, instead of the slik smooth butt style. It totally does NOT fit Habbo in my humble opinion.
