    SOunds good, but didn't this game just make everyone switch to directX11. With this everyone will have to upgrade to crappy Windows 10

    Support for DX12 is not bad... but please don't force it only. I like Windows 7 too much.

    ESO will run both direct x 11 and 12..
    i play HITMAN on directx 11 and 12... well, i actually dont notice anything if its directx 11 or 12 :)
    not like DX12 will bring magic to ESO

    I certainly hope they don't REQUIRE it because I don't want to upgrade to Windows 10.

    I'd rather see them start supporting Vulkan instead.

    lol stop talking about ZOS forcing direct x12.. such thing wont happen before good 7-8 years..
    the game, however, might support both, DX 11 AND DX 12 at the same time.
    i gave the game HITMAN as an example of such support...
    ESO used to support both directx 9,10 and 11 some months ago

    I love this game BUT I don't want to upgrade to Windows 10, when I bought this PC I deliberately chose Windows 7 not 8 and I still prefer it.

    Whilst I'm pretty sure ZoS won't do this for quite a while, I would definitely be looking for a new game to play if they did. :(

    As much as I love the game, but I'd rather quit for good than upgrading to Windows 10 if I had to.

    No worries. Kai Schober already confirmed that TESO won't enforce DX12 usage.

    It would be extremely silly if they made that move.

    the DX9/10 support drop was questionable at best, but to drop 11 would be flat out insane. Fully DX12 compatible Nvidia cards only started coming out Q3 of last year, and are priced at 200+ still (the GTX950 and higher)

    ESO does not support DX12. You can only run it in DX11.

    Exactly the same card. Had a multitude of problems with Fallout 4 black screen of death with no monitor signal. Same problem hit me 4 times on Sunday playing this game. Absolutely no idea why. Although doing research at the time of the Fallout 4 crashes, it appeared to be quite a common problem.

    Try using DDU(display driver uninstaller) and then install the latest version of AMD Crimson drivers.

    Anyone with a cheap crappy PC better stay away from windows 10 because its only good for good high end PC, if you have a bad PC then you better stay with your crappy windows 7.

    Got the latest version. Reading more about the problems, the TdrDelay value could be the cause of the crashes. I'll try the solution later today.

    This is great news for the future of ESO.

    HOWEVER.... if they can't fix the existing broken game mechanics, ESO won't be around when it would finally be optimized for DX 12.
