UPDATE TO MY ODL WARNING:

Edit: This is defunct. False alarm!

Interesting. This would confirm my experience from other games that DX12 is just trash.

It's rubbish there's no DX11 mode, this game is DX12 only, it uses DXGI Flip and DLSS which are DX12 only techs and you can check the install folder, there's only 1 .exe, there'd need to be more than one if the game supported multiple versions of DX.

I'm not going to try it, I'm tired of being a beta tester for incompetent developers and will wait to see if the game is fixed. I'm just talking about my experience with other games.
For example, I'm now playing BL3 again - with DX12 the game takes longer to start on my PC and I can't get rid of the occasional lags, while with DX11 it runs without a problem.

MancSoulja: I see you deleted the post. So you're not sure if the game has a DX11 mode after all?

It does. I'm running the game in DirectX 11 right now.

I've uploaded a guide on the two easiest ways to boost performance in the game -- please feel free to check it out! :)

Nice guide, let's see if more players confirm a better performance.

Why don't you try DX11? I get that you shouldnt have to but if the visual quality doesn't take much of a hit, at least it gets you playing.

Sorry, I won't even try to install this game after recent annoying experiments with games in a similar technical condition like Forspoken. But I'm sure there will be others who will give it a try. :-)

You know that -dx11 is an Unreal Engine parameter, right? So this is just placebo as the game doesn't use the unreal engine.

So please give us proof that you are running this game on DX11.

-dx11 is not just an Unreal parameter, it works on a multitude of engines such as Riot and Source. Here's some screenshots as proof: https://imgur.com/a/0IpUefZ

There's no evidence of the game having a dx11 renderer. Show us an in-game screenshot with MSI Afterburner's/Rivatuner's overlay on?

The overlay should be like this. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2954761654

Thats no proof. Thats just an ingame screen.
Something like this is proof https://i.imgur.com/oigr36n.png

I refunded this game and won't buy it again just to see that this parameter does nothing.
