Im pretty confident that 1C has prepared the game engine for DX11 and future releases and will activate those features when the market is ready for it.

Or is DX11 a deal breaker for you?

o.k my original post was on about the fact i am disapointed about no DX11 to start with, basically because i couldnt be bothered to trawl through the endless flaming and wisecracks from people who post thinking they know the motivations behind the madness is. BUT i manned up and took the plunge. IF dx11 is a no no because of the lack of FPS why not include the openGL option? OPenGl worked way better for most of us IL2 then DX ever did. Sorry i am not a programmer nor a Hardcore geek . But i know alot of peeps that enjoyed Il2 that much that they upgraded thier pc(including me) just to be able to play this game, if/once it got released (oh how we waited!!!!) If the DX11 is to be postponed then plz , dont make it too long! . I aint getting any younger and neither is my pc!

@ Wild Weasel

Actually you would be incorrect in your assumption...

Modern Game Development Life Cycle.

Pitch Idea to Publisher
Publisher Gives you a budget based on what they think they can cell (number of units)
You work your but off to deliver the game within that budget and in some cases time limit.
Compromise between game elements as to what ships on the release date.
Majority of the budget is Art

Now that isn't to say Oleg's group went this route. They could spend a lot of time developing on their own (Game Engine) in the hopes of selling it to other game companies. Yet another sources of income.

Bottom line is games are always a compromise. DX11 was dropped for now.

also just one incy wincy question. Has the release of COD and the lack of DX11 due to the fact of whinners and or pressure from "crap" UBI? . Sorry Ubi , but your lack of customer support haunts you.

@captstubing. Thanks for the heads up m8, i hope you read my edited post, i fear the first post might have been to harsh for some peeps in this forum, (might have made thier head explode!)
I just had a lot of respect for 1c for not bowing to pressure and took thier time on the product to ensure a quality product that truly follows in the footsteps of il2.

Of course I'm guessing here but I think it was a design decision at this time. Remember they might have deadlines that are driving this decision.

I would also add in there the fact that most developers aren't up to date in terms of DX11. There is most likely a learning curve and possible a design curve involved. Think about it. There are very few titles that are DX11 and that's for a reason. Bleeding edge stuff can't be accounted for when developing a game engine from scratch several years ago. Sure they can make guesses but again decisions happend a long time ago and without fully understanding how exploit DX11. I don't think it's the end of the world either. I'm sure they've built this thing with DX11 in mind so moving to the new spec might happen at a later time.

Hi all,

today I have this pc config.:

Asus M4A78
AMD Phenom II X4 940BE
HD-WD 640GB
Sapphire HD4870 1GB VaporX
4GB ram PC8500 1066

Do you think that is still ok for CoD?
In the past I got many trouble with ATI drivers in IL-2.
CoD will be better or I have to change my card with Nvidia's card? Is Gtx 470 enough?

Thanks.
Bye

[JG52Uther]

See how CoD runs on your computer,and see if you need to upgrade then or not.Thats what I am going to do.
I think you will be fine.

[kendo65]

You should be ok with that set-up.

Latest word from the devs is that they have worked to ensure ATI and nVidia both work well, so stick with the 4870.
