I think that is the most concerning thing. So 4 months ago they had already started rebuilding the game and trying to address those technical issues, after what was already years of development. After those 4 months they still have nothing to show and are addressing technical issues? ..... that's not good.
Honestly at this point I'm not even sure if what they have is a game or just a bunch of disconnected ideas. This game has been announced for 3 years and seemed to have been worked on for quite some time at that point. Given that SotC launched in 2005! I wouldn't be too surprised if this game has been in development from not long after that, as you don't simply leave a development studio twiddling their thumbs and doing nothing.
I'm sure that people even saw playable demos for this years ago. I just don't see what could be such a massive issue it would delay the game for this long. Only thing I can think of is a Duke Nukem Forever style of build it to near completion, scrap it and start again, near completion, scrap it and start again etc.
