This really was settled a long time ago when they decided against UO 2, etc. They have a niche place in the market, now a very competitive market. It was decided they would split their customer base, ala Tram/Fel as diehard 2d players would never make the move and both games would actually suffer/fail.
The technical part was said that the whole game would have to be rebuilt. So in essence, one could say they had some foresight (I hate to be Devils Advocate for this).
They keep UO thriving and more importantly, running profitably and by buying Mythic they actual do have a true 3d game coming out .

Warhammer® Online: Age of Reckoning. :-P
