    DirectX11 client at early access, or at release?

    When will we be able to download the DirectX11 client?

    My assumption would be early access, bundled into the Heavensward patch.

    There is no apostrophe in Au Ra.
    Stop adding one three years later.

    I believe they said before it would be a separate client, so wouldn't be bundled.

    It is a separate client, but it's not client as in "entire game" it's client as in the .exe that runs the game and tells it what it can/can't use graphically. They did say it would be patched into everyone's game, but I can't figure out where that was and I'm trying to find a source. see below

    Early Access.

    They stated that the DX11 client and DX9 client will be the same (like it is in the benchmark)
    So therefore the new client will be provided at early access when the game is patched.
