We know that they planned to include DX11 just as they planned to include dynamic weather and a dynamic campaign.

And just as for those features they were essentially defeated by time constraints.

So, while DX11 will be a worthwhile addition (both visually and performance wise) when it happens, for now there is not much point arguing about it.

Regarding Tree's point about Ubi still advertising DX11 - that just underlines what a shambles Ubi are - and the generally bad communication between devs, publishers, buying public - Oleg still thinks the game is releasing everywhere on the 25th apparently!!!

Lastly - Blackdog made the point that Steam statistics on DX11 cards may not be representative of their wider use. I'll also point out that a percentage of people with DX11 cards will not be able to run DX11 games because they're still using XP.

With some peoples reasoning in here and other "expert" sites its entirely Olegs fault we cant run DX11 when using windows XP. Its Olegs job to FIX it or this game will be/allredy is a bust.

Several known games has left DX11 for now because its unstable, the ones using it is dam near unplayable (Metro 2033 anyone) Does that change anything? No, its still Olegs and teams fault for releasing an outdated product.

Dont u know.
