Well ... the Steam survey show a XP descent per month of -0.56%, while Win7 has a increase per month of +0.76%.

This trend can vary but in the supposition that its not in 12 months the DX9 users will be 8.18% and in 24 months 1.46%, while DX10/11 will be 77.63% and then 86.75%.



I think that the team worked hard to support DX9 at the release time and I guess that the development road-map predicted an increase of the development team members which let them cover all areas, but I think that the team is still small to the magnitude of the Storm of War project.

They should offers a solid DX10 support immediately, and starting to project a DX11 support so I think that a small team like this which have a project of this magnitude in his hands should reorganize his priorities to let aside superficial stuff to concentrate the work where Storm of War can become strong.

Obviously ... I'm only speculating because I know nothing about how is the project is managed and the work distributed and anyway they can´t break the game to those who are playing in DX9 so guess that its helpless anyway.
