They've been taking advice from fans, the entire time. The game was fixed after the first two months, getting drastic improvements throughout the entirety of its existence.

"I did not play the original cause I heard it was complete garbage."

Probably the biggest issue with the game right there. People who never played it, reading it was bad, and perpetuating that it was bad.

Not a personal attack towards you, having played it, I have never had an idea where the idea that it was a bad game came from. It had a rocky launch, and would not play for squat on most peoples computer. Then again, neither does metro 2033, but you don't see people adamantly telling others it is a glitchy game on max settings, while trying to run it on a hd3850.

True very true. However my main gripe when I was looking to play was the server lag. I see today its still an issue. However, I suppose your right should have gave it a shot my self at least.

Neither. It's a complete remake. New graphics engine, new interface, new maps, new content, new server structure, etc.

It a had a reputation as garbage that was well deserved. I am sorry, but in this case it was truly was the case. There was so many broken things, that they had to keep it free forever just to keep people playing. I own a CE and it was as bad as everyone said. That being said the trailer was awesome, though Square's ability to make a good CGI trailer has never really been in doubt. I will definately give it a shot and hope they've made everything better, especially the combat/targetting system. I know they've said they've redone everything but the proof is in the pudding as they say.
