Will there ever be a DX12?

Post » Wed Dec 14, 2011 11:36 pm

So, if Crytek were ever to make a crysis 3 and they wanted to keep up their reputation about graphics its going to be kind of hard, isnt it?

Because for crysis 2 theyve got the best out of DX11, they could use DX11 as their base for crysis 3 as im guessing most ppl would have cards which support that(by the time the game came out), but for the push on graphics do you think a DX12 is needed or just a better engine?

Patience Jared, patience. DX11 (and Cryengine 3) are just babies as regards untapped potential. Still, a DX12 API is inevitable... many think before Q1 2013.

Bro... If crytek are making homefront 2 and some news site or shizzers said its to be released in 2014 ( @_@ ) then does that mean they wont start development of crysis 3 till like 2015? -.-

Well, you can bet whatever their plans are, they have been made by now. I wish someone would leak those plans.

Exactly, dx11 is gonna be here for a while, what we got now is somewhat unpolished next-gen material(xbox 720 material if you like), you know the best lookin' game right now?, Batman AC dx11 EXTREME, it tortures 2x 580s to give ya'll an idea. Still Crysis 2 ultra SP uses the most VRAM of any game i know.

Did you not read my messages?
my guess is that if there will ever be a crysis 3 they will start development in 2015 game release maybe 2017/2018+ and by then everyone would be using DX11 and maybe a DX12 if ever one will come out in time.

From what i know Win 8 will use dx11.1.So no question of dx12 now.

And sLI since u love graphics so much, did u play witcher2? Inspite of being a dx9 title it looks similar to Crysis2 dx11 with better textures.

Still to have a look at that game dude, but yeah i'd gladly get it, i picked up Saints Row3 the other week it's a lot of fun and has hi res textures too but unfortunately they're disabled right now. :)

Do you think that thew new xbox 720 and win8 coming out next your summer ( estimated ) will be able to play with each other? :D

Cuz they both by microsoft and i sent an email to em as a suggestion that in the future pc and xbox players play together and they said other people and companies have suggested this to, but they would pass on my request just like any other...

So, do you think there is any chance? :)
