DX9 for B.o.S??

[RickRuski]

Why would the new production team go with a 12 year old Dx system (based on the release date for B.o.S. and the first release of DX9) when there is a better one now. The subject at the new forum has been locked , why?? is it becoming a hot subject that the new development team don't want to answer?.

Is it because the R.o.F. engine is based on DX9 and to change it is not economically viable.
Surely this is a bacwards step, by the time B.o.S. gets released there may even be a new DX system (Dx12 or whatever). It sounds like the new series will be using old technology based on the R.o.F. engine. I have R.o.F. and find it not as good as C.o.D., the clickable cockpit features will disappear along with what else? so that it will be easier to use the R.o.F. engine?.
What a disappointing start to the new release.
