Rather interesting that dx11 shows significant performance enhancements over dx10
http://forum.beyond3d.com/showpost.p...postcount=3801
We are seeing improvements up to ~38% in the average FPS when comparing feature level 10 and 11 on the same hardware.
Demirug is one of Battle Forges devs.
Created a new thread upon request.
i feel like dx10 was a big joke
i mean it lasted what, 2yrs, on like 5 games?
way more than five games:Quote:

Guys, WTF are you so happy about? It's only a DX11 game. Nvidia said DX11 isn't important to gamers so this is just some nonsense those ATI fanboys are trying to fool us with. I don't believe any of this "38% faster" mumbo-jumbo. Nvidia is the truth and ATI/DX11/OpenCL is a lie! Why doesn't everybody just use Nvidia...
The above is a representation of what Jen Hsun Hwang would want all of us to think after they released their statement the other day. It sounds like nonsense because it is nonsense.
Are we talking about this battleforge?

No wonder I never heard of it...A 7.3 game....
Anyway, good to see the performance jump, but being 1 title it's still too early to know whether it's due to a poorly optimized DX10 mode, or a very well optimized DX11 mode. It's a sign of good things to come, but it's sadly not golden yet. Here's to being hopeful though!
Funny that he says that , because Nvidia just said that they are working really hard on their new dx11 card and that it will win over ati's current dx11 card , remeber Nvdia said that dx10 was very important for gamers :DQuote:

Win7 being decent and Vista having DX11 should help, though.
I don't give a rats if it's only a 7.3 game on GameFaqs, I for one love the game:shrug:Quote:

i'm an avid pc gamer and i don't know much about battleforge :shrug:
besides the fact it's the game ati touts whenever you install ati drivers :D
dx10 got such a bad name mostly from reviewers imo. any review i saw had dx9 vs. dx10 and dx10 was 'less fps' but most forgot to mention that dx10 had volumetric smoke etc. enabled during the tests. comparing 2 things when one is doing more work than the other than glorifying dx9 when it had more fps but looked worse.
he was joking, and tacking the mick out ot the nvidiot ownerQuote:

Even if Nvidia had an entire lineup of dx11 hardware out the door things would still be the same as they are today. I really don't know the timetable it takes to finish a game beginning to end but I would imagine game development today takes well over a year from start to finish. I would also guess some dx10 titles probably are not finished yet after years of developing so much as finishing from the ground up dx11 titles.Quote:

they're not releasing their product at the same time as ATi's equivalent, which means ati will spend more time on the next product.Quote:

I doubt it considering early games released using a new api would have to be developed before the actual hardware is available in the case of both dx10 & 11.Quote:

Well Nvidia sure did one hell of a job whoring it out for their 8000Series. I think a lot of people expected a lot annnnnnnnd then flop. Really nothing considering most huge games this past couple of years have still been dx9. Why I haven't bothered to upgrade. I can still play everything I want, even L4D2 on high so I'm real f'ing jaded after spending $310 for this card, DX11 is going to have to blow me away.Quote:
