DirectX is usually always the better choice if your computer can handle it.

DirectX9 crashes the game at the moment - please use OpenGL instead.

How do we do that? Sorry, not too savvy with this type of thing.

"Display Options" > "OpenGL"

Well, my three-hour slot is nearly gone and I cannot get into the game. After downloading the updates (45 min.) I got the message that it couldn't open because I was missing directx. I went to microsoft and downloaded that. Then had to do the updates again (45 min.). Still nothing. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling (and updates again), still nothing. Open GL is on. I don't know what else to do. Very disappointed. I've been looking forward to this all week.
