Anybody trying to play COD on a DX9 only card needs help, i cant even imagine the way it would look after turning down the settings to get acceptable FPS.

i absolutly agree with you furbs. but you cant change rules in the middle of the game. Also the problem is not so much the GPU you use but rahter the OS you use.

Buy a DX10 or 11 GPU but cripple it with XP? come on...

You'd be surprised at how many people still cling to xp claiming it is better. Why they want to stick in DX9 era is beyond me but there's plenty who do it seems.

I don't know for sure but I think a lot of people in Russia (their target audience) still run XP, which is why they still support it.

Not to mention this game was suppose to come out years ago, so when they started making it XP support would of been a must.

Keep pluggin away team I have many other games and sims to keep me busy, plus it's summer spend some time outside.

Yeah, XP is utter crap compared to Win7. Office or games, it is waaaaaaaaaaay more stable, easier, more accessible, as fast and has compatible software. Also using Vista from 2007 till today I had like 7 BSODs, while for XP I can`t even count how many.

it wouldnt be 49.99$, it would be more than that...

want it or not, and as much sense it woudl made to drop DX9 (trust me, i'd really want this to happen!!!!) it will NOT happen. Its like the grumman thing, tis stupid and childish, but its not going to change....

Except that, in the sequel all they have to do is not print out DX9 support, and that will jsut be a ghost from the past.

Flight sims were, are, and most likly will continue to be a rich mans hobby

Well not Bill Gates rich..

But if your out of work and living in your moms basement..

Please don't expect a new game to run on your 386..

Well I guess it is ok to expect it, just don't feel justifed in complaing about it if your don't get 60fps
