Last I saw, ETA for DX12 patch is early June. Not bad for an unfinished implementation so far.
Wait until it comes out 6 months from now (hopefully not!).

if that comes true, that would be marketing done right.it should not come out too late. Otherwise AMD gets not much benefit from it. My guess it will time well with Polaris and be bundled with it. If they got mirrors edge in on the dx12 bundle action that would be epic.
I would like to wait for final patch before judging DX12 version. So far we have in game bechmark that couldn't be really compared to DX11 because we can't test DX11 in same conditions. It's really strange that in this DX12 demo there isn't also DX11 test for comparision, maybe real gains aren't so big as expected.:thumbsup: DX12 is amazing. Finally we are seeing 6-core i7 smashing i5 into the ground in one of the most CPU demanding/limited genres - strategy games. I cannot wait until every AAA game supports DX12 properly. Once DX12 adoption takes hold, my next CPU is likely going to be a 6-8 core AMD/Intel.
In meantime - if somebody is interested in DX11 performance test with worst scenario (4x4 battle):

Ladies and gentlemen, this is a great DX12 implementation and credit goes to Creative Assembly.
DX11 vs DX12 comparisons:
We have higher performance across the board for both NV & AMD. A big margin higher too, not a wee little bit. This is DX12 done right.
Amazing how CPU bottleneck this game is in DX11 despite Creative Assembly spending so much time to optimize it and make it multi-threaded. With AMD's help they added DX12 that's great for all gamers.
The minimum FPS are excellent, it's quite amazing to see a Total War running so well.
Credit where it's due.
Why are you spreading lies and misinformation?
Warhammer Total War only has built in DX12 benchmark which cannot be switched to DX11 rendering mode
So you are comparing results from canned DX12 benchmark to dx11 numbers from real gameplay

Unfortunately, the DirectX 11 build we ran did not include the same benchmark. We were thus not able to do a direct 1:1 comparison. Instead, the DirectX 11 numbers came from several custom battles. We attempted to emulate similar conditions and camera angles.
1440P is very interesting...PCgameshardware.de has its GPU benchmarks up now and the game is apparently refusing to run in DX12 on GCN 1.0 and Kepler and Maxwell 1

I can clear that up. According to PCGH all benchmarks were run on the same map, displaying the same battle, but the benchmark utility uses a free moving cinematic camera that skips around between highlights and is not consistent. That is why the benchmark scores vary wildly between runs.Yea, but 980Ti, 980 and 970 performance make no sense. Must be something wrong there.
Strategy game Total War: Warhammer, which is still not called Total Warhammer, is the fastest-selling Total War game ever.
It sold over half a million copies in the first few days on sale, developer Creative Assembly said.

^ Expected, Warhammer + Total War is such a good combo. Can't wait for this DX12 patch.
where is that guy that kept bringing up numbers and comparing totally different genres? :sneaky:
also something funny on tw thread on reddit
