Hey guys ... been away from the forums for a while.

Has there been any news on when DirectX 11 will be implemented?

And the 3rd person view (Toggelable)

All I have heard is the comments on the NGNG podcasts.

Cheers in advance.

Rick

*sigh* why couldn't you just include your whole question in the title instead of breaking it of, with a cheesy "....."

and read the dev blogs/ corners, if it is not mentioned there, there is no news......

Because there are two aspects to my question which would have made the topic too long.

And are you suggesting that the command chair / dev blog are the only source of info? What about interviews?

Was there really any need for your sarcasm?

No it wasn't necessary ,
but good topic titles keeps the forum clean and readable, a lot of topics are created with titles like yours lately, and such titles don't tell anything about your topic, or what you want to achieve with your topic.

Your topic title could also have been "News about DX11 and 3rd Person View?"

But enough of the off topic chatter, back to your question
Which I will now try to answer in a serious way:

The Dev Corner/Dev Blogs/Roadmaps contains the information of the implementation/changes/plans etc.
In interviews they are telling their plans, but if those plans are not yet on the roadmaps, you know it will not appear in the game for the next couple of months (or at all).

so the only answer i can give is,

- Yes they are probably going to implement some sort of 3rd person view in the future, but how it will eventually going to work is not yet complete clear.

- Yes PGI wants to upgrade to DX11, but how and when is not yet known.

1. No news on DX11. Will not happen prior to netcode fixes.
2. No news on 3rd person. They brought it up as an option testing its viability and whether people would like it, not as a serious feature they are implementing.
3. No news on CW. It has never been part of the updates.
4. No news on dropship mutator. Deleted from the features roadmap.
