They should be criticized and you certainly shouldn't be telling people not to do so either. They've had an entire year, and what have they actually done besides make things worse? Right now the servers aren't even playable because the latency is so high you can't even drive. At least G1 recognized and owned up to their mistakes and rewarded the players with free premium. They've prioritized things like rebuilding Armas, and this new shitty game mode Riot instead of the engine or server upgrades. They need to get their priorities straight before they do any more damage.
