Originally I didnt notice much of a difference between the two shots other than shiny floors.. Until I saw this!!
I cannot wait for DX 11.
I just hope that the weird haze that seemed to plague DX9 games, is fixed with DX11 :O

Thanks for this, I could barely see the difference lol.
I wish the Benchmark was out, I can play on MAX with usually no problems unless
some Grid places without a lot of shrubbery...the Benchmark needs me be out so people can start getting upgrade replacements if needed.

Sorry if I missed this piece of information, but have they said anything about when they would release the DX11 client?
They keep saying with Heavensward, but if thats the case, who wants to sit 2-4hrs patching the whole 2.0 client up to 3.0 again and miss out on EA time.
I hope that they release it like a couple of days before hand to give us time to upgrade for when the big 3.0 patch hit.

As far as Ive heard during Live Letter's and Interviews it will be out with the launch of Heavensward. The new client may take time to download but dont worry, I doubt the servers will be up for some time during the maintenance. If you have a decent connection speed you should have time enough to download it all.
Also, if I'm reading the JP blog correctly (where these screenshots were posted) the upcoming benchmark will have DX11 support as well to test it out.

(Would be great if someone whose Japanese is better than mine could confirm that for me)
