The current state of play is not doing 1C's reputation any good at all and a clean break would at least give them a chance to put it behind them as a noble failure and move on to something more worthwhile. A clean break might also give them the chance to make any necessary personnel changes.

Personally I think most people understand the difficulties of the development and would hold no grudge if COD were fixed either thru patches until the Sequel is released, and most importantly that COD were merge-able with future Sequels so COD would benefit from any advancements in AI, Commands, FM, DM, Weather/Clouds, new features, optimizations, etc.
