    some of us closed beta testers have seen the vast improvements from the time the beta shut off to the time the preview weekend turned on. Thats why some of us are very very impressed by what mythic is doing. plus we have paid close attention to how mark and jeff and josh and all of them ahve been discussing the game and being up front with what they are working on.
    
    To even use the name aoc in the same sentance is silly. Aoc was amazing for half the ganme and then got totally broken end game and content wise. This game has none of those issues. The content is definatly there from 1-40 completly. There are end game systems in place. I have experianced them and if your in closed beta so have you. Aoc didnt have any of it working. You couldnt siege what so ever in aoc it was broken. You can siege at this point in this game. You can raid you can do pve dungeons. All the systems are in place and working.
    
    So to compare a broken game end game wise to a game that works end game and just needs more tweaks to the system is silly.
