Exactly what I came here to post.

I cannot vote on this as it is a pretty dumb choice.
I do not use DX9 but am happy to support those who bought the game because they do use it and as has been said already was probably a requirement of the original contracted requirements when the game was comissioned.

i do not use Dx9 and voted in consequence... i can't barely not imagine a past 5 years old computer running this game decently and this is the fact till the birthdate.
Supporting DX9 is just a matter of money as for me and not pointed to computer users but console user... in game sound is already set to be used in console. I may think that as usual we know a quarter of what it's going on in the office.

Yes indeed, they have to support it, I don't think there is a dx9 card out there that can run the game properly, but there are many xp users out there with capable hardware who would be left in the cold if it was dropped.
Maybe it wasn't the most sensible decision to support it in the first place, but that decision, having been made, must be adhered to.

Flawed poll.

Choices lead to the outcome you want to see.

Do you work for the Democratic Party in the US by any chance?

Yea but the dx9 usage will only go DOWN from now on, well 2 years ago that was true too. In 1 year time I bet dx9 will be out in Russia/Asia because we are now on gen 3 dx11, gen 5 dx10? They are trying to dump dx11 cards at cheap prices now, they havent manufactured new dx9 cards at all for atleast 2 years, in fact nvidia made the last 500 series batch about 3 months ago: aka dx11 card prices will start dropping very fast now, let alone dx10. This dev output needs new managment.

Exactly my view. People chipped in to support the sim and are waiting to fly it. I don't care if they have a 4-month old card or a 4-year old card. If the game told them "i will work on your PC" (system requirements), it should work on their PC. It will not be as fast or as pretty, but it should work.

I can't vote because the poll choices are too one sided. There should be more options, for example

"i don't use it but i want it supported for the owners of DX9 systems who bought the sim", etc.

Why do I need to buy a new operating system just to play one game? How come it's not on Linux? Why do I have to be married to Microsoft to play CLOD? Why do you keep saying you need a dx9 card when dx10 card will play dx9? LIES, LIES, AND MORE LIES. This game will never be fixed. It is dead.

Sadly, legally, it looks like CoD will have to continue DX9 support

Hopfully the comming sequal will drop DX9 support!

But I guess it all depends on how big 1C thinks the DX9 market is.. Based on what has been said thus far it appears they think it is big enough to put some effort into supporting it.
