Ya this game DOES have alot of potential. It is just going to take some time. I think if you are someone who doesn't spend the whole day, every day on grinding and trying to max out everything, then the game is running pretty smooth update-wise. Though that is not the case, we have elite players, and we have very very casual players. I have been using my wait time to help a friend in my area get started in the game so I have someone local to play with. Not many Oregon players it seems; I have yet to meet one at least.
