So, i bought this game because it was ridiculously cheap (2 usd) and everything works fine except when i activate the dx11 options in the launcher, when i do so the game just stays in the batman logo and nothing happens, but i can play it with dx9 and everything else maxed out (except for PhysX) any solution to activate the dx11 options?

My rig is
-Amd fx 8350 oc to 4.5ghz at 1.45v
-R9 280x sapphire vapor x oc to 1120 core/1600 memory
-Asus m5a97 r2.0
-8gb of ram 1600mhz
-Thermaltake 750w +gold
-Windows 10

The game actually quite problematic in dx11. It is known problem. But graphically there ia almost no difference between dx9 and dx11 except there are more tesellated area with dx11. Gpu PhysX actually offer more obvious visual upgrade than dx11 did. That's why some reviewer recommend user with nvidia card to play the game in dx9 with physx instead. The only area where tessellation really visible in that game probably ivy poison's lair.

A few hours ago i did the verify cache steam thing and it said it was missing some files (39 to be precise) and i installed them, now it works with dx11 but in the benchmark my fps drops to the 25 some times but if i use dx9 the minimum fps is 53 with 37% of load in the gpu and 25% in the cpu in dx11 and 30% in the gpu and 25% in the cpu in dx9, is there a way to improve this or should i just play it in dx9?
