Dx11 when?

We were told that PC is getting a dx11 version. When is it going to come out?

IIRC they talked about releasing it around 6-8 months after launch then mentioned the possibility of adding it after the PS4 version launched. Wouldn't be surprised if it got pushed further back though.

2.2 me thinks?

2.3 or 2.4 PS4 is 2.2-ish, DX11 is 2.3-ish.

I'm sure DX11 is (supposed to) coming out at around the time of PS4. The PS4 beta is scheduled for late Feb next year. I hope some of the limitations that DX9/PS3 causes can be overcome with the greater amount of resources that a DX11/PS4 system would have.

cant wait for this. dx9 is a waste of resources.

Looking forward to DX11 ver for PC as well...!

Would also love to get an ETA on the DX11 version. :)

There was a live letter where yoshiP said it would be out 6 months after the PS4 version. No way they will release it at the same time beside the PS4 version as it will canabalise potential sales, and the selling point is the new shiny graphics.

PC version will be free(if you own the dx9 version) and imo they'll release it when the game hits steam rather than having to submit two versions and going through that process twice.

I'm wondering if there will be a DirectX 11 benchmark...

I think the benchmark is dx11 cause its runs crossfire. The current state of the game crossfire doesn't work

According to the last Gamewatch interview Reinheart translated it'll be after the PS4 version launches. Most of their efforts are going towards development of that right now.

when pigs fly

i would bet dx11 wont even be a thought till the first expansion at the earliest.

As somebody else already mentioned they are doing DX11 after PS4 client is out.

But the real question here is, 'Why do you want the DX11 version so bad?' The reason I'm asking is other than a few extra FX/particle rendering and maybe a little anti-aliasing the game appearance isn't going to vastly change. We had a post going before about the DX11 client and the one big thing people hoped for (as it was doc'd as the higher graphics version) was better texture resolutions - which Yoshida has specifically said we are NOT getting.

So why the want for DX11? Want the extra glow on low-res textures? I guess personally for me there's no point with the same texture resolution as DX9.
