Time will tell how amazing this title will be but i'll call a shovel for a shovel untill i actually know that i have the most amazing shovel in the world in my hands... or the worst one :)

My optimism doesn't fully stand on the graphical part. If thats the case we all would be playing WoP. ;)

The shovel may not be the prettiest one but it if get the work done without breaking Im satisfied. ;)

I believe CoD will offer a complete experience where the graphics just play one of many parts. I hope that every serious flight sim fan can look beyond the DX11/tesselation/hollywood frenzy and just enjoy the fact that we have a new combat flight simulator in our hands.

That i agree with but DX11 has other advantages than just the looks and we do want the best performance :)
But as Ilya mentioned, DX11 is a high priority in the future so we just have to wait.

This is fantastic news for me.
Bought new pc 12 months ago and have been panicking that it won't be good enough ever since.
i7 860 @ 2.8 / 6gig RAM / ATi 5770.
That'll do for now.:)

Did you mean to say dx11?

4870 isn't a DX11 card, only 10.1. That's probably reporting the version of DX installed on your system.

The 5870 was the 1st DX11 card,

Yeah thats what I ment, so does that mean that my card wouldnt play a DX11 game then even though my system supports it? :(

Of course you could play it. DirectX11 would just run in dx10 mode not dx11. Its really no big problem.

it just means that your card wouldn't be able to take advantage of the DX11 path, it would run the DX10 path.

That video was just eye candy! It was of a very limited area and I doubt it took into account the physics of the wind interacting with the water surface. In short although nice looking I doubt we'd get any useful info from that technique. Being able to guage the wid speed and direction from the wind chop would be fantastic , though beyond the scope of any consumer sim in the near future.

Cheers!

Running a 480 here and I can run that simulation at max settings 60 fps.

Also you cant do that with dx10, because its direct compute/tesselation.

Im not whinning (any more), just irritated.
