If you just try to use a tiny tiny bit of sense and then you read this comment from Illya:

"The game is indeed extremely scalable. For the past six months all we've been doing is scaling it back. Basically we had built a 2013 game and had to pull it back into the present. Growth in the next couple of years will be very easy. We'll just flick a bunch of switches back on."

Please don´t keep on crying about the lack of DX11 on initial release and the short life span. I don´t want to bash your head, just trying to make you feel better and look forward to this amazing title, thats all.

It's good to be optimistic and i've played IL2 since day one but i am abit skeptical when it comes to this title. There has to be a reason that we haven't seen screenshots or videos in highres using maximum settings from the newer builds. It sure makes me wonder why. Time will tell how amazing this title will be but i'll call a shovel for a shovel untill i actually know that i have the most amazing shovel in the world in my hands... or the worst one

My optimism doesn't fully stand on the graphical part. If thats the case we all would be playing WoP.

The shovel may not be the prettiest one but it if get the work done without breaking Im satisfied.

I believe CoD will offer a complete experience where the graphics just play one of many parts. I hope that every serious flight sim fan can look beyond the DX11/tesselation/hollywood frenzy and just enjoy the fact that we have a new combat flight simulator in our hands.

That i agree with but DX11 has other advantages than just the looks and we do want the best performance
But as Ilya mentioned, DX11 is a high priority in the future so we just have to wait.
