I could spend all day going round this forum just answering that one question. And as Ive said everywhere else you CANNOT patch a DX9 game to be DX11.
Crytek know this, hence prob not bloody responding and deleting threads left right and center.

You CANT patch to DX11!!!

Funny I remember F1 2010 doing just that, I also remember being able to use a user patch to make the Dx7.0a Deus Ex use a Dx10 renderer
all the patch would need is a seperate game.exe
OP that post doesn't say there is or is not only that unless an announcment appears on this site then the news is FUD

But it IS in the engine, therefore it is LOCKED out. That can be patched.

OP, Shader Model 4.0 is Direct-X 10, Shader Model 5 is where it's at!
And Silver420, of course you can patch to Direct-X11, all you need to do is reissue the rendering engine in a patch, replacing the old one with one that is Direct-X11 capable. (of course, as well as updating any assets and shaders to take advantage of DX11 where appropriate, and add features such as Tessellation and multi-threaded rendering etc again, where appropriate)
Or was it a dream when I saw they patched in DX11 to World of Warcraft engine with the latest expansion? Changing the rendering codepath is nothing that's impossibly tricky.
Oh and I can play the original Deus Ex with a Direct-X 10 renderer - http://kentie.net/article/d3d10drv/
So while there hasn't been any proper announcement about the Direct-X 11 patch, it does not mean it won't happen because it's impossible to upgrade. We just have to think positive! Glass half full and all that... (not that I think DX11 will benefit Crysis 2 all that much, besides performance increases if they do a good job of making it efficient, instead of just changing D3D9 to D3D11 in my MSI Afterburner overlay...)

Where did he say there will be no DX11? he didn't even say it won't be included in patch 1.2
Reading comprehension problem, eh?

OP, you are one of many MORONS who cannot read. Seriously stop spreading this **** about no DX11.

Newt182, it all came from a comment Tom made in another thread where some website took a tweet by CRYTEK_TIAGO stating he was cooking some DX11 code for Crysis 2, which somehow became proof a DX11 patch being released the next day.
All Tom said was something along the lines of "I don't know where they got this information from, nothing has been announced etc etc etc" which a lot of people have read between the lines as being "OH NOES NO DX11!!!11111oneoneone!!!"
It would be nice to have a definite confirmation one way or the other though, rather than all this "nothing to announce at the moment" type stuff. It'd put the forums to rest.

He denies it ever having been confirmed... but he doesn't confirm that it won't come either.
Please get your head around the concept of RUMORS. Stop posting discussions like this which feed conspiracies and rumors and just wait and see. If it won't come, nothing would change... if it does come you'll all be nagging about what doesn't come. Give it a rest already.

Hey guys, i'm glad to see a lot of people acknowledged what I said, unfortunately however this thread has a misleading title and really starts off on the wrong foot, if this was one post we'd be happy to delete it and move on, but as it's the OP the thread is being closed.
