ie: if you have a 200 series GeForce, maybe they figured you couldn't suitably run the game anyway, DX9 or not.

You can't blame others for your own undoing!

"We dont know what the latest DX11 card is, but you need it for our game" They MIGHT want to specify it being a gamers wet dream card because I am sure the M variants are new and do DX11, if poorly.

The f*** you talking about, did you even read all the words? They gave two examples of the kind of cards they were referring to at each of three different levels, that's more than you normally get for new games.

Um, except for your poor grammar let me respond.
DX11 has been supported in NVIDIA since what like the 200series.
We're now up to the 600 series. So that's a good 4 generations of cards. The 200 series came out in 2008, so literally 5 years worth of cards to choose from. If you want to run Crysis 3 on a computer older than 5 years old you're going to have more problems than direct x 11 support.
Like the fact that you're stupid, that kind of problem.
Because you wanted a M variant that would do it, here's a 1200 dollar laptop to play your crysis 3 and pretty much any modern game.
It's not exactly breaking the budget as far as computers go hey.

I couldn't play the alpha smoothly maxed out. But close to and it looked great. I really couldn't see the difference between what I was running it and the max.
@copuis - no consoles can't do DX11. However earlier in the year the Crytek people were talking about how they've been doing a lot of custom coding to try and replicate DX11 looking effects on consoles and getting some good results. So I think the DX11 version is the main version, they're then trying to cheat that on consoles where they can.
@Whoop
There were some code issues with Crysis 1. Improved in Warhead, generally though it's because they were doing stuff so ahead of the time, no one had experience with doing it.

I know in Crysis 1. You definitely could see a difference between Dx9 and DX10.
Crysis 2 with DX11 you really just saw features only in dx11 like tessellation.
