Is this client software still extremely buggy? I want to know if it is worth me re-installing this game basically. Thanks,

I hated KR when it went into beta and was officially released. KR is way beyond where it was then. It is still not where it needs to be. I play in 2D, but you can see the developers are fixing KR based on what the players are saying needs fixed. I've been really impressed with how far along it has come. It's definitely playable now, however there are a few things about it that keep me from playing. The main thing is the macro system is horrible. They either need to allow UOassist to create their program and we can hope that is released soon, or they need to make the macro system within the game much more managable. The 2nd reason I don't play in KR is because the graphics on items looks really bad currently. The graphics for the game are far beyond where they were, so I am fine with that. But I like the detail on items in 2D much better than KR as of now.
KR has come a long way since it's launch, but I believe there is still much to do. Thus I still play 2d mostly, checking in on KR now and again, to see the progress. Bugs are not much of a problem as they were, although the pathing and collision is still a little off (last time i checked), and the crappy macro system Wrek spoke of. I feel they need to do more to make it more like 2d, but with the shiny new graphics. They have made some progress in this regard, adding Legacy chat and Legacy art modes, but imo the "Feel" isn't quite there yet. I have high hopes for the future of this game, and am a Mythic fan (and I know they're capable of pulling this off), but in order to succeed, the new client must recapture the "Feel" of the 2d client. This is all in my opinion of course.
thanks for the info guys. I think I'll leave it a little longer still then.
