Where is NEON for PC????

My God...It's full of stars - Neon, Psychedelia, Colourspace, Trip-a-Tron and all flavours of VLM...

They can ask all the questions they like but it's fairly obvious Jeff and Giles don't actually want to say anything about the matter.

Ok well I think there should be some informatiion on the future plans from LS Directly.
Seems only fair to all the people who have been waiting.
So what is the future plan?
Thanks

Nope. Big post was reasoning based on current state of play, and recent discussions with Yak & Giles. Later post was specific response to lis0r's comment.

It's true, there was a time when Neon was looking like getting published but unfortunately that didn't happen. Subsequently LS have decided that should they release a full blown Neon on PC it needs to be something more than what it currently is.

Hope that makes sense.

Yes I Understand that but what we would all like to know is what is the actuall plan for neon for the pc? We would like to hear that Directly from LS! I think that is a reasonable request to the many LS supporters that have been paitently waiting with no official word on the future of Neon for the PC?

this is not directly aimed at you, btw, you're just a handy post to grab hold of...

The endless questions are why you're not getting any feedback at all. Do you pester Microsoft weekly asking where Windows 7 is?

We will be told, at the appropriate time what is going on. Jeff and Giles have discovered that keeping people up to date seems to cause them more stress and "user disappointment" than keeping quiet does.

In fact, I am fairly convinced they don't even look in this section of the forum any more. If you read the content (rather than continually asking "where is it?") you'll see virtually no posts by Jeff & Giles, some intelligent guesses and reasoned statements from Rik, PVB and others... then masses of fanwank and speculation that'd make an Apple forum proud ;)

So this part of the forum is 1% content, 99% made up stuff.

I recommend we chill out and just wait for things to happen, when they happen.

Oh, and don't moan about Neon being broken - they know, but can't fix it due to Neon itself not being broken and Microsoft probably not caring enough to fix the dashboard (since this is a company that's only just decided to do something about the RROD problem that's been plaguing their consoles for years).

Keep calm and carry on.

The lack of feedback has *absolutely nothing* to do with people asking questions, it's entirely to do with Llamasoft being shit at PR.

So no more dev stuff here, from now on this will just be about sheep and plushies and other such non-work-related stuff. There will be no talk, no press, no screenshots and no videos of work in progress except as and when we are ready to release them, at the appropriate time, through the appropriate channels.
Seems fairly plain and obvious to me. We're not being told anything because they don't want to tell us anything until it's the right time. And that's totally fair.

But those two threads are nothing to do with people (AKA fans) asking questions, they're about Yak getting upset at not making sales.

Ok I would first like to say it good to see we a subject that actually sticks to the topic.
Next, I understand about not pestering MS about windows 7 but we know windows 7 is comming for sure. There is no guarantee that neon will release for the pc like Unity.
With regard to duke nukem we have heard from 3d realms that is is definately comming its just a matter of when. We would like the reassurance from LS that all our waiting will not be in vein. Since its been so long since we have not heard anything about neon for pc. and if they "can't" talk about Neon then they should say so. But I am sure they can give us some info on the future of neon PC.
Thanks
