The cone of silence dropped long before the release.
If I was a betting man I would bet that it is tied to the release of SH4 and the problems that came from the community reaction to that and some nonsense that happened subsequently with some patch releases. My guess is that Ubisoft corporate slammed the lid on all Developer communication with the community due to the way that just about everything they said was twisted around and used to bash Ubisoft.
If that's the case you can't really blame them . We are just reaping what we sewed.
