A.D. : anno domini 2010 DX10/11 ?

[No_Limit]

I expect in 2010 DX10/11 support.
If the game is only DX9 will provide in case of poor performance, I do not buy it.

Will there be only DX9?

lol. I hate graphics fanatics such as yourself. You are the reason game companies spend more time on nice looking water than actual fun gameplay. Shame on you

How old are you? 13 ?

I would ask the same from you... Bet you wouldn't even play les grognards because of it's graphics...

Gentlemen lets keep it civil here, its a valid question concerning graphics.

I think a good game has a nice balance of looking good and playing well. If anything a game company needs to divide it labor into the two camps ensuring that its an emersive experience with smart AI and good lookking graphics, and it is not as if there are prime examples of games achieving this, normally they are game of the year.

What I didnt like about his comment is he says he will NOT buy the game if it doesnt come with DX11 features which no games currently do. I would much rather CA focused on nailing the AI than adding in a few shinies for those who have uber rigs. The graphics look fine as they are.

To answer the OP's original question, DX10 support was included in Empire: Total War, so there's absolutely no reason why it wouldn't be in Napoleon.

I'd rather have 2d graphics and an AI that can set up a good ambush, pin me down and flank me with more than unit.

There is no DX10 support in Empire. Last time I checked, which was 2 minutes ago, I saw no option for DX10.
Shader Model 3.0/DX9.c is the highest the game will go.

I noticed that games using DX10 are less cpu/ram/gpu consuming than games using DX9. It's not just that DX10 makes the graphics look better than DX9, but the performance is better too. I agree that graphics are not really important at the moment, they look good enough in Empire and for me they also looked good enough in Medieval 2, but I hope Napoleon will have DX10 features just for a better performance on my system. But, even if it doesn't have these features, I will still buy Napoleon anyway.

By the way, my first post!

dx9 is ok.. the difference is very small.

ETW had DX10 Support. Of course NTW will support DX9.

[Qandow]

[S-te-Fan]

dx8 will do

Close Combat I - V... fantastic top down 2d games with morale and such.

Look for the newer versions on Matrixgames.com
