Vaporware is where the audience is concerned that the product doesn't actually exist outside of a couple of mocked up screen shots and a lot of PR banter.

Instead there are real screen shots (and videos) and not a lot of PR banter. Juts folks busy working hard on something just a little bit complicated. This isn't TD's first rodeo... it'll be fine.

Im a noob to the forum... DUH

im worried it will be cancelled thats what im saying

How on earth did you get to that train of thought?

i thought vapourware was where something is half developed and just abandoned

Yep.. and usually not actually developed beyond the early stages. It's where the advertising campaign announces a product far too early into its development where almost nothing exists and the product wallows in development obscurity for many years before quietly fizzling out.

Duke Nukem Forever was in that state for something like 12 or 13 years...

Anyways... back on the subject of 4.12. Why would you think that 4.12 is going to be somehow cancelled?

Just curious: how much time spent enjoying the sim?
 

For the hard working members of team diadelos, how much time do you spend actually flying and enjoying vs making/tweaking etc. is more of your enjoy time on or off line, and do any of you build missions or campaigns/skin etc??
I myself used to make lots of off line campaigns and single missions until work schedule changed, now im lucky to get 4 hours a week online and 2-3 offline.

Why are you preoccupying yourself with thoughts of v4.12 being "vaporware" or getting cancelled? We've all been waiting anxiously for it, but there's no need to think fatalistically about the situation. It's at too far a stage in development, and it's release is imminent, so there's virtually no reason to think that it will suddenly be cancelled at this point.

It's only "vaporware" in that oncoming thunderclouds are "vapor." It's only been about 2 weeks since the "read-me" file was released.

RUN, HAMSTER, RUN!!!
Sorry, I drunk :eek:
