If you follow technology news you should have got surprised reading the article title because there is no official DirectX 11 for Windows XP or Vista as of now, Microsoft DirectX 11 (6.01.7000.0000) will be made available on Windows 7 and Windows Vista when officially released in coming months, but virus creators have hoped onto the opportunity and started taking advantage of gamers curiosity to install the latest version of DirectX by posting fake trojan infected DirectX 11 links on blogs and forums, these so called DirectX 11 For Windows XP and Vista installer contained Trojans created in perl scripts which got detected by only three lesser known anti-virus scanners on VirusTotal out of total 39.
Fallout London hasn't exactly had an ideal launch—crashing issues have been reported by players—but overall reaction is still posititve.
Games Asylum: "Well, this is uncanny. This school management sim bears a startling resemblance to Two Point Campus, especially when it comes to planning and decorating rooms. Be sure to add a window and a radiator, along with a plant or rubbish bin. Indeed, certain aspects are almost identical – it’s just like revisiting Two Point Campus, only something is…off. It’s the visual style that leads to the uncanny valley feeling, using a low-poly PlayStation/Saturn aesthetic. An odd choice, considering the 32-bit consoles didn’t have a great amount of management sims. The PS1 did have Theme Hospital though – with Two Point Hospital being Campus’ predecessor, so we guess we can give it a pass on its artistic intent."
I almost bought this yesterday lol. Then I remembered I have 1000 games I need to play and I would probably touch this once.
After being forced under the map with no way to escape, Helldivers 2 was an option added to force respawn so they can get back to action.
Ya this was a little obvious. Just look at the file names. Xp would not be able to take advantage of Dx11 anyways.
What a completely misleading title. :(
On topic: Thanks for the heads up!
There IS actually a way to get DX10 and DX11 running under XP. It's called using the "reference" driver that comes with the SDK. It'll work and give you full support for everything DX11 does....at about 2FPS on a 16-core machine.
PLEASE CHANGE THE TITLE!!
Doesn't Windows 7 already have DirectX 11? If you open the start menu and type DXDIAG and hit enter. You'll see in the window that pops up, that your running DirectX 11.
