Well I thought that they have come a very long way from closed beta. There were many bugs which were eventually fixed and the structure of the game was quite simplistic. Enough weapons, codes to have them forever, no battlefunds to worry about and no boosters. At closed beta it was the most balanced time for this game. It was just as good, if not better when they released Oman and some more weapons but for me it was when they had a character wipe and then introduced battlefunds where I could see where it was going.
