Question about DirectX 12

I'm pretty excited for DirectX 12 but was disappointed when it was announced to be released in late 2015. However, does this mean that the actual release will be then? Meaning that we'll get Beta Drivers before then?

No one knows i guess. let's just hope mantle will be adopted by lots of devs.. 

Directx deserves to die

 

 

Why?  Directx 12 is basically doing what mantle does, but on a much bigger scale, therefore devs will actually do something with it.   Rather than using a broken API that still isn't completely ready for market, AMD screwed the pooch by releasing it + discussing it before getting people to adopt it, and to finish it.

 

  Full support for all games over one API is so much simpler.
