they NEED to show melee fight to get me, integral part of DUNE is the close combat

The more I hear the more excited I get. Even if the heavy pvp focus makes me a bit anxious.

An Item I want in these types of games is a Drafting Desk, where you can go into creator mode to create building blueprints so as you fly about in this white space and design the building you want, then once it's done, you post out a construction area, and toss in supplies and just build it up like a RTS builder unit.

One thing that would be really cool is if you could use money or spice or whatever to hire NPC guards and the more spice or whatever the money is you use you can hire better equipped guards to guard stuff like your sandcrawler or your base

I am cautiously optimistic.

2:37 The heighliners are the biggest structures in all of the universe and there are worms on Arrakis big enough to swallow them.

What the article you're referring to said is, there are 10 "survival maps", but the deep desert map (i.e. the hardest place to survive, i.e. you're not going to be whistling in the park walking in it) is nine times the size of the Conan: Exiles map.

Ive had this game on my wishlist since it was first announced im hyped

Phantasy Star Online 2 has a setup where I believe most money comes from cosmetics and subscriptions give you bonuses that aren't really major things. I hope they take a route where money comes from cosmetic things, because this game could have some pretty cool cosmetics. Also an optional subscription with things that are useful, but not pay to win. I hate subscriptions, but I constantly pay for premium in PSO2, because the game makes me want to come back to it. Even though it lacks content there are so many options not only for cosmetics, but how you use them. For example I have a different looking character attached to each class when I switch them (you level classes separately on your characters rather than having to create a new character to use a different class. Basically like how FF14 works).

THE SPICE MUST FLOW!

would be cool asf if we could have badass looking sword fights like in the movies with different techniques and blades.

For the harvesters, being able to take them from another player/guild, the npc crew comes out once taken to fight. If the npc crew wins the battle, do they revert back to being your havester?

As far as the subscription goes, I'd like to see what the value of having it is. I've had subs before with SWTOR and ESO, both of which you can play for free but certain perks for having it and none were pay to win. Anyway I'm very interested in this game and looking forward to the release and hope it turns out good.

Old strategy was to cache water as you move forward so on the return you have water. I hope we can do that. I hope we get some sort of journal that helps us map the area. Too bad Prima went out of business, they made great guides .

If you can’t raid each other than I’m not wasting money

You know who else promised us a massive gane and even showed bits of the game and trailers and such ... Anthem. Also if you've played spice wars they are literally making spice wars into a pov mmo variant .. I'm excited as well truly but alot of devs have let us down lately so temper you're excitement

Got a feeling we'll be waiting until around fall 2024 before reaching either an open beta and/or early access release just like Conan Exiles.

I hope Stealth is a core mechanic!

Is there single player in the game

Why would you EVER suggest a subscription based pay model that shit is absolutely the WORST possible option.

I’m curious to see how they’re going to balance out the PVP, and not let it become so toxic that it turns people away. Im curious about the game and feel like diving into PVP can be fun and immersive. But a__holes always tend to ruin my PVP experience

all in as a pilot specialty.

It's not just that they are trying to Make money and it is a business is the development is not free neither people want content without paying for it

Are we going to create a CDG guild when this launches?

Good call, man! Keep on cruisin'. Keep on goin'.

THE GAMER HAS AWOKEN

Any idea if you will be able to get companions to defend your base and speed up workbench crafting like in conan?

I guess the spice must flow.

Ornithopters. Do you pilot them, or aim at a point and it goes? ie Does using Microsoft Flight Simulator - DUNE expansion, actually parallel skills you need in game to fly one?

His name is Joel Bylos btw not Jeff. Jeff is the other one lol

I really want to get excited about this but it's made by Funcom and they can't even release a Conan Exiles update without breaking the game. The last game I got excited about was Nightingale and that was a huge let down. This one is a wait and see for me.

I think it's cool it's based off Dune but I hope with time, it breaks away a little and stands alone as a game with its own identity. Dune elements mixed with different creative ideas.

IGN wants to know how gay it is

So a player can take your ornithopter and leave you stranded in the Deep Desert... but not really. You can just pull your spare vehicle out of your butt and fly off. That makes me not want to play it but not for the reasons you think. Dune is brutal, Dune Awakening the game already sounds like coddling babies. Aww somebody stole your safest method of transport... have another. NO! Make them walk. Make them call a friend. Make them pay a heap of currency for an NPC pick up. Make it SURVIVAL not convenience.

A criminal system would only be okay, if you were seen stealing a vehicle, or seen with the stolen vehicle.. I hate it when everyone magically knows that it was you..

the potentiality for dune is massive ... including space exploration etc. This could be the eve online with walking on planets everyone has always wanted.

Funcom making an endgame?!! ...Yeah....right.....

so is it like a actual MMO or like conan exiles MMO?

wait each server can have up to 500 players ?

EVE online 's monetizzation system is the best: you can play for free but youre limited in waht you can do, you can pay subscription with real life money.... or you can pay for subscriprion giving in game money to players who basically payed a subscription for you with real money, all that is made with ingame systems and markets. In dune it would be someting like you can pay X ammaunt of real money to get a "special kidnd of spice" or "the water of life" or someting that you can than sell for alot of solari (ingame currency).consuming that item give you then acces to 1 month of subscription. It cannot be normal spice as this item existence MUST be linked to a real money transaction twoard the game and must not be obtainable in game.

Spread the word of the lord❤

No base raiding though?

Its Joel not Jeff😂 Joel Bylos and Jeff Besoz is close tho

on the one hand I love dune... on the other hand... forced PVP just annoys the hell out of me.... so maybe I'll just watch people stream it. (edit) ohh no forced PVP... ok ok... I'm listening!

I'd like to see cryptocurrency integrated in this game and allow an open trading systems like we see in GUILD WARS 2 and being able to store that crypto into cold wallets if we chose to. I would like to see players have the option to select any of the great houses they choose to be a part of and also offer the chance to start your own great house if certain requirements are met. I would like to see weekly or monthly events held which will allows guilds to compete amongst each other and build a reputation among the guilded communities through sheer force victories. You can't imagine the feeling a player gets when one receives recognition without decoration. They will remember my name...

#Funcom #Dune #lesson #Slow #modified

I would love this but the forced pvp make this game a no go area for me, The reason for this is clear they dont want to pay for the servers so they are trying to force everyone into the same few servers and for a pve player who just wants to play the game without a bunch of idiots ruining it for us having thousands of hours and many dlc on conan they are clearly trying to be smart but it wont work. This is just a forced pvp game pretending to be friendly to pve.

Glorified version of conan and we know how broken that game is and how useless the devs are in fixing it. This game will be broken also

It's Funcom. As someone who has a long history with the company and their games, especially Conan Exiles. I'm here to tell you. Don't support this game. Don't support these devs. They spend more time breaking their games than anything else. They spend more time removing what was popular, and investing in things the community as a whole didn't ask for. And if Conan has taught me anything. Anything official will be 1,000% toxic. While sure this game looks like something that'd be right up my alley. I've been burned and spurned by Funcom to actually continue to support them as a studio or dev team.

If there no single player fuck game i hate multiplayer

But is there nudity ? :)))

Here is what I fore see happening. Not that I am anyone special, but.. so people can build their huge sandcastles without being knocked over.. cool. That’s cool. But, just like any other pve game, they get bored after they have satisfied their want to build something huge, then move on to another game. Like, valhiem. Where did all the hype go? Gone. Pvp is obviously the more popular choice in “survival” titles. Rust dayz scum, all great games. Like how single player games, you beat the final boss, and most people just don’t come back. Anyone inside the shield probably doesn’t like pvp, so anything that goes out outside, they won’t be a part of. So all that’s left are pvpers. But not even sure about that, because as far as survival pvp, rust is the king of that genre, there is something about being able to base raid, and get loot that just doesn’t get old to pvpers. It’s replayable and exciting. This game won’t really have a lot of that. And it sounds like the pve dudes will pretty much have the same success without doing anything pvp, so that’s kinda lame, pvpers like thrill of survival in player conflict. Sure some people play simple games like call of duty for quick pvp. This game is a survival game. We already have a king of that genre. Probably always will be for the foreseeable future. So to say that people don’t like that gameplay is Ignorant if you look up the charts to see how many players that game has even to this day. Facts are facts. This game sounds like a jack of all trades, but a master of none. It’s really hard to please a pve crowd, and a pvp at the same time. Safe zones suck. If they just had a military just guarding a certain area, but still not impossible to do some shenanigans, that would be cool. Have the players a bounty on their head or something that keeps balance in a higher security area. Like eve online, for example, in high security space, you do something wrong there, concord comes after you. But, pve people always act toxic towards pvp people and use personal insults towards them rather than just letting them play how they want to without saying things like, they are horrible people. It’s pixels for crying out loud.

I smell scam

But will there be sandwalking?

Yeah but if you have dragon flight in conan then this map was looked not so large yeah? But in dune everybody gonna have fly
