In this article the developer claims the game will also scale up to 16 cpu cores.
This is quite the opposite from other THQ games STALKER SOC and Clear Sky both of which are single threaded.
games.on.net: So if I go from a dual to quad core, what performance increase can I expect?
Olez: If you are not bottlenecked by the video card, we have linear scaling so double the performance. This goes all the way up to eight and sixteen cores.
I bet that comment is a load of BS. I doubt you will actually double the framerate going from a dual to quad of the same architecture unles you are playing at 1280 with a gtx295. and we certainly know the odds of it scaling beyond 4 cores are about nil no matter what gpu you are using.
I just use the generic italic commands. there does not seem to be way to automatically do anything on these forums or maybe I just cant find it. lol.it scales to 16 cores? lol that's good to know when i use my 16 cores in 2012. Unless they mean an 8 core w/ hyperthreading? which prolly wont be affordable until 2012 anyways.
sorry off topic, toyota how do u do italics on Anandtech forums? i dont see the option when making a post.

why is that funny? almost every game that will have DX11 will also be a console game.You forgot to add:
3D vision and PhysX and that it is a TWIMTBP game...
But funny they hype it as DX11 game...since the 360 isn't DX11 :hmm:

This was another interview about Metro form a Physics stand-point:

THQ is a publisher. They didn't develop those Stalker games. So it's totally unrelated.
I'm kinda hoping this game can deliver, it's said to be a bit stalker like.
