Dude, if the code/engine is basically BAD then implementing/activating yet another element would most likely make it just collapse totally. This is not so much about what directx version they are using, there are plenty of dx10 and dx9 games that both performs and looks better. The code is basically xxxxx, now I'm sure they released the game as it was because, well they simply had to. No release, no money, no money, no game. It's harsh and not very nice to the customers (to express it politely) but I guess they just had to, it's reality, it has happened, deal with it.

You see, directx11 might improve performance but it won't fix bugs and other limitations inherent to the game engine itself. From what we've heard they are almost replacing the whole thing, which is good BUT don't be surprised when dozens of new bugs will appear.

On the note about people also asking for a 64-bit exe, this will probably improve performance but will it fix bugs? No it won't because again, it's inherent to the engine itself. I'm trying to see things from different perspectives, and the ignorants of this forum sometimes stuns me, some people barely know what they are talking about with regards to game technology and they couldn't probably even code a simple html page, yet they seem have to have vast knowledge of game programming/technology and also insight into the development team at MG.

I'm not picking sides because frankly there are just as many fools on both sides of this mess of a spectrum that we have here, I just wish people could stop expressing themselves when they don't know what they are talking about, it bothers me.

P.S I'm sure this must bother real programmers on this forum more than me.
