I am sorry for having been too "angry"

Those who read this forum may have noticed i sometimes overreacted against Crytek. Learning the game was dx 11 only saddened me ,not just because of the game, but because of what it wa smeaning.

This current computer was the first i got in my life, in december 2009, and when i got it i was happy.I Purchased ithe componants on a real market but found out, much later, i could have paid less for better.

However the cost was about 1200 euros: I paid this for a 19'' screen, a E8400 duocore and a gtx 275+ P5QSE2, xhich replaced the inital P5CQ motherboard for stabilities issues.
Back then i was just starting to learn the things about hardware pc and all this complicated stuff.

Until know i have run every game i got perfectly, except the witcher 2 where i just gpt 30-50 FPS,and GTA4 or MAFIA 2 which i couldnt max out, but that wasnt important cause i could play smoothly.
So i felt sad when i learnt that decision cause i truly believed it could run on my computer, since i could do so with all other games.


In the end since i prefer RPGS, that was less important,but yet ,somehow, i had the feeling that Crytek decision was targetting me. I know its absurd, but i had the feeling it was somehow "negating" the efforts i had made to get what i have.

So i believed i could change this situation, granted that players have been able to change things in games in the past: getting drms removed from games because they affected buyers, balancing the game when it was necessary(Diablo 3).

I was also hoping that since EA is often said to constantly dream about money, that could make them ask Crytek to bring the dx 10 support. I was betting on the "money temptation".

I was also thinking players could do something about it, for example a player discovered EA could have done SimCity offline, so that didnt seem completely impossible to make Crysis 3 DX 10-9 friendly.
