The common and proper way of programming games today is to enable DX11 features for gamers on Vista/W7 with a vidcard that supports DX11 while still support DX10/9.
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and now BF3 are just two examples of this.

So reading that CloD has DX11 API support the natural thing is to think they built it the same way everyone does and not that it is just informative text saying they are programming CloD's "Latest-gen graphics engine" using DX11 APIs indicating that we might see some DX11 features some time in the future...if we're lucky.
I mean it's like blocking all gears in a car except for 1st and 2nd but still claim the car can do 150 mph.

Well if i do remember correctly full DX11 support was dropped right before release because of performance issues. So perhaps this is something that can be reincorporated at a later time once the issues are ironed out? Maybe this could be part of the "major graphic engine overhaul" that luthier mentioned. I guess we'll wait and see.

Yep.

I too believe that this >50% fps raise that Luthier is talking about has something to do with DX11 support. This would imply that some with older OS/HW won't experience that big of a raise though.

LOL!
You can always spot the guy who is upset and has absolutely nothing to back up his claims.

How you ask?

Typical troll attack the messenger tactics and ignore the message tatics

They are easy to spot, first thing to notice is they didn't quote anything I actually said, let alone provide anything to the contradict (link, book reference, etc) what I said

Thus all they are left with is to attack me personal, because they know they can not attack the message.

It may be natural for the average person to 'think' that way..

But I think we all can agree that 1C, UBI, and STEAM is not responsable for what some people may think.

1C, UBI, and STEAM are only responsable for what the advertised.

And it should be clear to all now that just because some people here like you 'jumped' to that conclusion does not mean 1C, UBI, or STEAM cheated us out of something or tried to fool us into something.

I will say this, I am glad to see that you are open minded enough to not only admit you were wrong, but open minded enough to read and learn what API support means. So a big S for you!
