Well, it makes sense for them to keep their next gen engine which allows them to make MMOFPS games like Planetside under wraps, its given them a massive head start on the competition.
If this game is as successful as we all think/hope it will be, and MMOFPS becomes the new buzz word in town like its threatening to do.. then they are going to have EA, BioWare, Infinity Ward and every other FPS company in the genre clambering to:
A) Buy a licence to use their engine to provide their own iteration of the MMOFPS experience with their own IP
B) Spend a HELL of a lot of time making their own engine (at least 10 years of development knowledge/experience has gone into Forgelight, it will take a LOT of time to make something comparable).
