My guess is it is probably down to poor communication on both sides and a late understanding that CoD wasn't going to pass Ubi's QA. You can imagine the awful moment of realisation! This was probably there since 2008 but no one from Ubi thought to make sure 1C understood it - hardly a late policy change or anything like that I think.
I haven't cancelled my steam pre-order yet. I am hoping that we will see some decent vids emerge from Russia over the next couple of days showing settings tweaks (disable this, modify that) that remove the game-stopping problems in the short term. Then optimisation patches should cure it properly over the coming months.
Anyway, the Australia release is April 1 (yeah, you US guys aren't feeling so bad about the delay now, huh?) so enough time to wait and see.
