It's basically the same system with almost everything still behind a pay wall (anything I don't have, which is a lot of items, takes me to the shop to purchase), increased acoin prices for previous items in the progress path, having to purchase worthless junk to get to the good stuff (which then makes the wanted item even more expensive), nothing worthwhile can be obtained with credits, even worse matchmaking now since tiers are inter-mingled in pairing very weak opponents against strong ones, etc. It's all just a flashy re-design of the same old system. That's why it's a big fail. Just another way to push predatory sales...
And no, the majority are not fixed. Only a single task corrected itself so far, out of nearly 15 or so that are still bugged. The achievements for mechs still haven't been fixed either which is going on months now so I don't expect anything to be fixed for a long, long time or if ever...
