We are officially depreciating DirectX 9 as an option with this update! Since its soft launch last month, around 40% of players have switched to DirectX 11 and we've had some great feedback specifically around performance improvements! This updates starts to showcase some of the new capabilities of moving to DirectX 11, like our new Dynamic Weather system (showcased below), and we have more performance improvements ready to release.
