DVD-ROM, those are getting hard to find in pre-built computers. Everyone I've seen, or even most build-to-order ones don't offer drives except RW burners. Hope this isn't a problem, my current one DVD-ROM is basically dead, (drawer won't open) the other two optical drives are DVD-RW drives.....

Advanced physics – wind, lift, turbulences, rain, fog… Feel the air rush on your wings as you push your aircraft to the limits in epic dogfights. See your fuselage torn to pieces while every single enemy bullets ballistic and damages is calculated.

It's all true.DX 11 was not cancelled but delayed and it will have advanced physics.
Dynamic weather was delayed because it's pointless to launch now if no PC it's capable to run it now.
Trust me we will have a lot of new features to discover at launch,enough to make us all happy.
The missing ones we will get in later updates.

Hello Ibuchele,

Is your statement a wish of yours, or do you have inside information ?

Salute !

No need to be ironic.I'm guessing,of course,based on Oleg's statement about the new engine.
Yes,I admire and believe on the staff capabilities.
And please , don't call me a fanboy.
It's childish.Professional respect is not a demerit for anybody.

If you buy a game advertising dx11 play on the box legally it has to be dx11 when you play it, adding a feature later entails that the advertising has to say that it will be added later or that conditions apply.

Otherwise its false advertising, irrespective of the product.

DX 11 may be and probably is better than DX 10, but that doesn't mean its without faults. The developer actually using DX11 found the API unstable in manor he was trying to apply it. This could mean a DX11 code problem, a COD code problem, or a mix of the two. Whatever the problem I'm sure it will be worked out at some point.

It may be false advertising but it pales when compared to Microsoft advertising. I could care less as the developer has a history of supporting their products and DX11 will be available in COD at some point.

The weather engine is shipping with the game and can be used at your own risk...maybe the first up-date will have the dx11 cure

The DX11 cure will be a long long time coming.

I for one couldn't care less of DX11. I will look at the overall game experience. At any rate, even after DX11 implementation, someone will always find something missing ... DX11½, DX12, and so on.

I met this sort of people since kindergarten, destroying sand castles done by others because they werent perfect enough ... but incapable of producing a miserable hole in the sand by their own ! LOL! ---- I will try and enjoy what we will get ----


Of course any reference to anything resembling actual forumers is purely coincidence ...
