I'm not sure which "phase" you consider phase 2... or if you consider "opened up the goodies" the "release" but if not.. then your knowledge isn't very accurate.




Phase two was 2nd round of invites. Phase 3 was when guilds were given 20 invites, and it was more of stress test, This was the time they unlocked a lot of things like clans, clan cities, overhead swing, spells, weapons, more skills, etc. Maybe you did play longer, but I don't remember seeing you at all.Then again I vaguely remeber seeing you in screenshots from Obs where you were in group.

As for the complaints about AoC, I do remeber that. They enforced a rule not to make posts bitching about the game in AoC private because of it.

Really your complaints now are pretty much towards non-existant parts of the game (aside from the mounted archery), but one of the main ones (the grind) is getting lowered again upon NA release. Apparently the "soft cap" hasn't existed this entire time to make the transfers feasible (allowing new players to catch up in the month before transfers start)..
