Please, try to use your minds sometimes, it might help you to better understand things. Also, there is the "DX9 on the box" issue.

This is very true.... but then we are back to 1C being at fault in a very big way! If Russia is in such financial dire straits (I don't doubt that.. I know it is.) that they can't afford to splash cash on DX10/11 systems and Russia is the biggest fanbase.... then we are faced, yet again, with a development company who, at least appear, to not have a clue what they are doing and a majority (Albeit a different 'majority' from the Western DX10/11 one) who are getting...erm.. excreted upon from a great height. Not good. Not good at all.
I think they really should take the gamble and release a DX10/11 patch and work on the DX9 whilst us guys are flying around happy as larry.... it would, at the very least, remove some of the tension and, perhaps, save the dev team from a few strokes or aneurysms on the way. lol (Especially poor Blacksix! lol)
I can think of at least one software developer, who shall go unmentioned, who are praised for their series of strategic war games who have managed to get away with not really fixing two.. yes TWO.. of their titles whatsoever.

I just pray they don't "fix" their latest one as that works just dandy. LOL
