Guild Wars 2

working with Microsoft for DX12 support?

No they’re too busy keeping DX 9 in.

The ones working on DX12 are bigger players in the gaming industry (Microsoft), hardware manufacturers (Nvidia, AMD, Intel), etc. Other gaming companies are working on modified versions of their game engine for DX12 (CryEngine, Unreal 4, Frostbite, among others). Some of those engines are also being ported to work with OpenGL for cross-platform support (OSX/Linux, Source 2.0 by Valve is one of them).

ArenaNet is still on their in-house engine, which is running on DX9. DX12 wouldn’t be a practical upgrade for them short of developing the engine from scratch (they’d have to dedicate a lot of resources for that, while maintaining the game post-expansion, and then convert the game to the new engine).

Well I hope they have something planned for the zergs that run around.

Ain’t going to happen—-forget about it.

Somehow this thread made me lol
