About Directx 10-11 situation
Can someone from developers clear this?
I have Mobile-GPU called GeForce 330M and as I know it supports up to Directx 10.1.
Can I run this game with it? If answer is yes, I will buy it. So please.

Take a look at the official FAQ, there is also a mention of a command line code that will allow you to run the game with DirectX 9 as well.

Aww. Bought DX11 card only for this game :-)

I'm certain it will run a lot better with the latest graphics cards, so it wasn't a waste of money. I'm just waiting to see how my PC will handle all 25 tiles unlocked!

Your card is well below the min specs regardless.

@Mystic Thank you.
@AG.Miller Nope I've just found out they changed minimum req page. It now requires 512 mb, directx9 supported gpu.
Mine is 1 gb, directx 10.1

And I am over other requirements, too. Me so happy, paradox. Please continue to support directx 10 graphics card. Some new games like bioshock supports, so I guess it is not so hard :=)

A 330M is no where near the same performance level as a 260.

Paradox and Colossal Order appear to be doing everything right to please as many gamers as possible. It's been years since I've seen a company make so many efforts to give such a positive experience. Many people were concerned about DX11 requirements, now DX9 is minimum, and 1gb video cards are now 512 minimum. I'm sure the performance won't be as good on lower spec machines, but I'm glad that more people will be able to play.

The game runs on openGL too.

And there's no harm in it. Only an ever decreasing number of games will support DX9/10 as time goes on. Hell even DX12 is expected to arrive in Q4 this year.
