Tessellation. Thats a nice feature for destroying framerate.

You can have high res textures in Directx 9. So whats your point again?

I was being sarcastic. I was saying that textures "destroy frame rate" just as much as tessellation does (meaning it DOES, but its worth it when your framerate is >60)

What the hell is the point of this thread?

I have a feeling DX11 will be nothing special. its not like DX10 was a huge step up from DX9. but DX11 will look better and more hi-res than DX9. thats about all.

I'll make a common comparison with cars

Formula 1 is completely useless for common people, but the innovations it brings is usefull for everyone later.

So if nothing moves, in 5 years (and next consoles won't be in 5 years) you will still have the same consoles and the same based games.
Why would they change, they make you believe what you're saying now.
Gaming has changed, what if this situation was the same at the time of PS1 ? You would still play on the PS1. Great

prolly just a troll. Heres another vid showing why dx11 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEGYaS9mGTM

Edit: if the ps3 came out shortly after the ps1 I sure as hell wouldnt touch the ps1. In case you hadnt noticed, the crysis gaming community does not own the average computer

that's why crysis 2 is disappointing

I never said it wasnt

» Sun Mar 13, 2011 4:15 am

I think most people want it because it was advertised as being in the game.

» Sun Mar 13, 2011 3:09 am

Well, that, and that it's pretty much a standard nowadays.

It's kind of embarrassing that Crytek, the leader in PC graphics, released it's flagship title without basic DX11 support or graphics options.

Forget the lack of dx11, they didnt even spare us dx10. That being said, they found a way to make dx9 look a fair deal sixier than most dx10 games

First do some research. Yeah it will cost some frames but it does not destroy frame rate. This because the extra polygons only get rendered for objects close to you.

yup it is appalling that crytek has fallen so low in terms for graphical fidelity. I am vomiting our a Dx9 game when they were known to push boundaries of pc gaming?

All respect lost for them

So much folks seemed hell bent on wanting Directx 11 but why? Why do you want Directx 11?

Because DX9 was outdated by games that came out years ago? (Including Crysis 1 lol)
