What's your point? The current game development is working towards version 3.0. Are you complaining because the last update to the current game was a couple of years ago? Maybe you want them to change the date stamp to make it look "more current"?
The new version is available as an open beta...
I think one of the issues with retaining new players is the current graphics, which is being addressed in the upcoming new release. Another, perhaps more important issue is the players themselves; hiding from fights, clubbing the new guys to pad their stats and get their name in lights instead of helping the new guys learn and have fun, etc.
