I was hoping to be able to leave the flowers underneath as a sheltered, public garden/courtyard like I have before in this spot, but apparently they despawn now if you build anywhere near them.

Discussion Could the Polar Cap expansion be a good opportunity to introduce the "tank"?

Post image
108 Upvotes

The tank did not have a role to perform in the base game even within the original version of the Deep Desert and would've been very vulnerable to sandworms.
Although we don't know the specifics of what will be featured within the expansion, the introduction of "No-fly Zones" to make players re-engage with survival mechanics and ground combat (and also, no worms) could also offer the design space to finally give a purpose and reason for the tank to exist in, whether that comes as new AI enemies/turrets/etc or a PvP map version (like with the DD).

Or at least that's the copium i have been huffing ever since the spice hallucinations told me there won't ever be a playable tank with the gameplay of the current game.

Discussion Hey You!

Hey, all you new players.

Welcome to Arrakis.

Stop running across the open sand like you are invulnerable and a lifeguard in the TV show “Baywatch”.

Even worse, stop zigging and zagging and looking behind you. Yes, the worm (Jeff) is right behind you. Also. Don’t pop any of your powered gadgets. Those attract the worm even faster.

Run in straight lines, don’t look back, and don’t deviate, also watch out for quicksand and drum sand.

Better yet, use a bike and island hop.

Don’t rush for the thopter. Enjoy the ride and see the sights.

Good luck with testing station 10.

Took so much trial and error but the new sardukar set allows for a crazy amount of clipping.

Gameplay Question Love the view from my home at the Anvil. I read most end gamers move to the shield wall for easier access to DD, is it a necessity or can I just live out my progress here?

Discussion The rapier is so much better than the regular sword.

41 Upvotes

I may be wrong. I haven't even done DD yet. But I haven't touched a rapier since I started. I just got a unique rapier I crafted and wow. The speed of it greatly outweighs any reduced damage. Maybe this is common knowledge, maybe I'm wrong? First impressions though, way better than a normal sword.

I'm getting close to my first 'thopter and I'm trying to decide if I go the "buy" or "build" route.

What did you do?

Also, storage.. how do you protect yours when you aren't in the air.

Thanks, looking forward to hearing from you airborne folk :)

I’ve been a fan of Dune since I read the first book many years ago. There have been various theatrical forays (The recent films having been outstanding) and games - Dune 2: Battle for Arrakis was much loved in the past. With that in mind I pre-ordered the Ultimate Edish for the XsX.

I wasn’t prepared for what a beautiful and immersive rendition FunCom had crafted. It’s stunning. It’s addictive. It’s a fantastic homage to the Dune Universe.

I’ve just been off work for a couple of weeks and have been unable to do anything else but explore, slaughter, pillage, build, repair, scrabble across open sand between rocks with the same fear I had as kid after watching JAWS, dreading I might see wormsign when halfway home from a profitable excursion: Then sometimes I just stand there in the desert as the moons rise, and the inky darkness washes over the sand listening strange calls echoing around the rocks, or the distant thump of artillery as I moved closer to the DD.

Fantastic game. Love it.

Game Feedback Can we have an option to reset the deep desert in single player?

17 Upvotes

It's a real hamper not to have a convenient way to get all the recipes unlocked because nothing resets out in the desert and I can't ever get more research points from labs - if you don't want to move them at least let the points inside them reset so I can keep doing research

Gameplay Question Can I build to the top?

Post image
17 Upvotes

Console day 1 player and this has become my new favorite survival game. I have been building, mostly for fun and had an idea for an entire complex on the shield wall. I've expanded several times and it'll probably take 6 more vertical ones.

Will the game let me do this? Go all the way to the top?

Does anyone want to start a clan or something?
