Finally more people talking realistically about what DX12 offers, and not PR junk.

What are the overheads on DX12? Is it anything like the jump from Windows 7 to Windows 8? The only thing I can compare is that the Service pack 1 for Win7 takes about 20 mins to half an hour to install and the Win8 service pack 1 (Win8.1) takes about 4 hours to install. Why is that? Is running a larger api thingy on uncapable hardware really going to magically improve it in every way?
Its like a friend who officailly updated his phone to android 4.0. The phone did support it yet it clearly was not able to handle it as it made every single function act out slower.

In reply to Mark. Curious to see how Unity will be since it's claimed enemies are much smarter.

In reply to Mark. I really do hope this makes a great difference in single player titles though.

The ai is going to get too smart and start creating human profiles controlled by ultra smart cpus and dominate online multiplayer. *sarcasm

Well if UFC is anything to go by, next gen AI will be fun again in the upcoming years. Every fighter I face, they all use their strengths in a dynamic way, very unpredictable. Each fighter I play is actually fun to fight, for the varieties of AI logic. I still feel Halo 1 had some of the best AI in any game. Single player should be fun again.
