Even if all the rumours are true and we are looking at a worst case scenario here, total canning of project (speculation on my part), protecting the brand itself would be an obvious thing to do. Which is what is happening now.
A defunct product can always be repackaged at a later date or sold to another developer with deep pockets.
Business 101 is to protect the brand, ie Maddox Games, Il2 Sturmovik - XXXX etc.
With the flood of MMO's being launched they would have crunched the numbers I guess and made a call on that.
