Well, as far as I know it's still under investigation as of like April/May or so. The story is basically seven of the team members quit and then went to apply at a Japanese gaming company. As part of "showing their skills" one of the programmers showed off the code to Lineage 3 which was suspected of being copied then. It is also suspected that the original game designs and outline were shared via e-mail and that it was sent to the same company and other net locations. Many think this has happened because previously the Senior Game Designer on the project was fired for poor leadership skills. After they fired him nobody on the project team wanted to work for NCSoft anymore. They're still trying to recover from this.
