They announced laying off half their staff.  They can't find a publisher and it does not look good for those that are left:

Ehh such a shame. They had such great ideas. A ground breaking Sci-fi MMO, could have been.
 

P.S.: I bet the reason why NCsoft turned them down,  coz they propably would copy thouse ideas and make a MMO of there own, with there own engine and there own quality. If you look at upcoming Blade Soul MMO, thouse guys take things really seriosly.

The only difference between a Troll and a Fanboi is which side of the fence they stand on.

or the reason NCSoft shut them down is because they didn't want to do a cash shop...

Which, if you look at all the big publishers (except EA apparently)... is the way they're all going...

Were they going for a cash shop, with this game? I heard nothing about that.
