They removed the DX11 flag after the sale spike opening week...
Blatant false advertising and lies. There are many things I care about more than DX11 (even on the graphical front, like textures and reflections), but I DO care about when I get lied to about a product (aka 'scammed').

You're telling me even Nvidia didn't know?? Or they did but lied anyways to help your sales? What's the deal here?

Always good to be called an idiot for pointing out that a sponsor of the game was apparently unaware of the technology the game contained.

Oh, by the way, it says right in the manual that you can't have a Crysis 2 online account unless you are 17 years of age or older. Most people that age are literate and able to spell so I'm taking a leap and assuming that you are not. Go away.

Even when they did take it down Crytek didn't say anything.

Crytek should've told us what we would get because they were already taking pre-orders for a game most people (ones who didn't check the Nvidia site every day) thought was DX11.

And they must know something we don't either that they are working on a patch or not. We need to know that now from official sources.

The way to do it. Crytek knew that there were a lot of places, webs, stores that where selling the game with Dx11. The game have not it. it will have this in the future, for sure(at least now there is some kind of official announcement of this, with the "no news" in one of the official posts...), but this is false advertising. Nvidia was one of the sponsors to downlaod the demo, and in the download page it was shown "Dx11".

You can delay the release date. No problem. But release something with no promised features... it is not excusable. Imagine you buy a house, go to live to it(cause this is finished)... and you discover that the toilet will not be done until next month.

1) Game set to release with DX11
2) Marketing with DX11 begins
3) DX11 not ready on release date
4) Pause marketing DX11

It's a real conspiracy over here!

No, I didn't read the rest of thread.

This is old new.

Nvidia removed the DX11 from their parent website nvidia.com before the game even got released
Obviously becasue they cant advertise a feature that currently not available once DX11 is implemented they will ad it back.

For people who were not here a couple of days after launch, a developer tweeted about working on DX11 (which quickly got deleted). It will come eventually.

.

I'm afraid that is not entirely true:

http://www.tweaktown.com/news/19222/crysis_2_to_not_get_direct_x_11_patch_yet_its_listed_on_nvidia_s_site_advertising_it_as_a_dx11_title_what_the/

They continued to refer to Crysis 2 as a DX11 game in the sales blurb for the 560ti for some time after release March 30th a believe.

It stated: "Built for DirectX 11 - Enjoy all the visual glory of the latest DirectX? 11 blockbuster games like Crysis 2, HAWX 2, and Civilization 5. With massive geometry processing power of the GeForce GTX 560 Ti lets you enjoy incredibly detailed environments and characters."


The page remained live for 12 hours or so after this article went online.

I think by 2 weeks you must mean afew days. I think it was something like 4-7 days out from the US release that Nvidia removed most of it's references to Crysis 2 being DX11. 1 reference I am sure remained until the 30th of March give or take a day or so (see post directly above).

I think this last one is just a FAIL on the part of whoever maintains the website though.

they probably forgot to remove it, something that little is easy to miss
shame on people if they actually bought that one card just becasue it says DX11 for crysis 2
when it was clearly mentioned on many articles and even on the site itself prior to release and
when every other 5xx didn't mention this

but I DO care about when I get lied to about a product (aka 'scammed').

You're telling me even Nvidia didn't know?? Or they did but lied anyways to help your sales? What's the deal here?They didn't know. If there is someone in the world that suffers the most from Crysis 2 not having DX11, it is NVIDIA & ATI. ATI is usually quiet due to its lack of budget to promote DX11 developing and has let NVIDIA deal with it alone.

What has been the case now is that either NVIDIA considered that DX11 would surely be in Crysis 2, judging from Cryisis 1, or, as someone else hinted, it paid $2,000,000 to EA in order to assure DX11 and of course use it for its own marketing. Right now, it is possible that EA/Crytek are trying to get more money from NVIDIA. The adsence of an official announcement about WTF is going on with the DX11, makes me suspecious about this.
