Its an issue with the dev team working with the API, not the API itself which is praised as far better then dx10 which it was based off.

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.

It says this:-

New 3D engine – Latest-gen graphics engine with DX10 and DX11 API support. Huge variety of photorealistic ground vehicles, buildings and other environmental elements recreate minute details of 1940s Europe.

and also this:-

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.

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.....

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.

Ibuchele,

1-I did not call you a " fanboy".
2-My question was polite and respectful.
3-My question is not "childish" in regard of your statement :

"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."

"Trust me".... What does it mean for you if someone says " trust me" ? That he is guessing ?
Wouldn't you think that this person knows something you don't but can't tell as in NDA? Beta tester maybe ? You seem pretty sure of the outcome here...
So don't be surprised if you are indeed called a fanboy after this kind of reply of yours...Humor and good temper...? What was childish you said ?

Salute !

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.
