Nope!

Your still missing it!

Allow me to clear this up for you..

Note in that link you provided it says

Quote:
DX 10 and DX 11 API support
If what your saying was true, than that statement would imply 1C used 'both' the DX 10 API and DX 11 API in software development..

Which any programer will tell you is silly! Especially in light of the fact that the DX 11 API includes everything the DX 10 API contained and more!

Now that that is out of the way.. Read it again with an open mind and you should see that statement is saying..

1) CoD is a game that runs DX 10 'feature levels'
2) CoD is a game that is programmed using the DX 11 API

Two very different things!!

And at that same link you provided, under the PC CONFIGURATION Tab it says

Quote:
VIDEO CARD: DirectX® 9.0c compliant, 512Mb Video Card (1GB DirectX® 10 recommended)
Not DirectX® 11 recommended

Thus CoD was never advertised as a DX 11 'capable' game (as you were trying to imply in your inital posts)

By capable I mean capable of making use of the DX 11 'feature levels'

Hope that helps! S!
