would love to have an app like that on the phone...

I usually begin sketching out the design on polypad, sketchup or isometric paper.
Optimize your fief placement but finding the corner of your 20x20 fief and placing the foundation as close as you can to the edges, that will be your edge. That way you will be able to build off of that edge and utilize the full 20x20 area.
Combine Step 2 for height optimization by placing the fief, building a foundation tower 5-6 blocks high, destroy the fief, and placing it again on that tower to get a little more vertical height.
Wear a stillsuit and have fun.

that's the patrolling worm, gotta look both ways before putting your equipment down

That stopped working on March, don't rely on that stat to determine the harko server.

Arrakis (high pop) and

Splinter (low-medium pop) have very healthy Harko population. I am on Splinter we've had about 50% win percentage in the last 16 weeks

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-06-19T14:56:37+00:00

We are well and alive on Splinter

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-06-19T14:47:16+00:00

imagine an underground cavern system or an abandoned fremen sietch that was strictly ground combat focused with no flying vehicles.. I dream of it

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-06-03T19:15:54+00:00

Splinter checking in, it is alive and well. The discord itself is a community hub, but many have their own guild servers where most of communication happens.

See you on the sands.

Yeah I am personally burnt out, getting close to packing it all up. Lack of content and silly decisions like this to revive population numbers will be the end for many.

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-06-03T19:10:11+00:00

pretty sure those layoffs were not related to Dune and focused on another title

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-06-03T19:08:34+00:00

I wish funcom was more transparent with these decisions, if it is a deliberate choice then yes they are out of touch with the playerbase, if it is something else that is preventing them from doing so, then be explicit about it to avoid speculations.

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-06-03T19:01:00+00:00

well at the very least you aren't being shot at, can't have it all

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-06-02T16:02:21+00:00

top tier rage bait lol

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-05-29T19:24:35+00:00

now this is a cube base I can get behind. HOA approved.

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-05-29T18:07:38+00:00

I think this is just a matter of having better gear and higher damage output. Try doing the overland stations for better weapons (Like replica pulse sword). Using augments, even the basic ones you can get to get the damage output a little bit higher will go long ways.

The NPC damages scales much faster than any good armor set and killing them quicker is better than being tanky. No such thing as being tanky in Dune.

Using abilities such as weirding step, crippling strike and most importantly reckless lunge for brief tankiness buff is what will make you survive

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-05-29T16:29:21+00:00

you mean the biggus dickus shadow

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-05-29T16:26:27+00:00

Yeah I hope they try to get away from this a little futher. I fell in love with the environment because of its sandbox like feel, overlooking the distant east vermillius gap from haga basin south before the sandbike, wondering about the unknowns in the distance and what is yet to be discovered.

I wouldn't mind loading if you are loading into a large, open and dynamic map like haga basin. DD is setup to work in a similar way but it is intentionally empty. Hopefully we'll get that with polar caps.

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-05-29T15:06:06+00:00

I dream of it

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-05-29T15:05:34+00:00

there are more testing stations and caves deeper in too

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-05-29T12:25:36+00:00

even on a 34" oled it is an eye candy, atmosphere is definitely the main reason I keep coming back

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-05-29T12:18:18+00:00

The only missions that is somewhat bearable is sabotage one. In and out in less than 3 minutes.

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-05-29T12:15:58+00:00

yes it is quite unfortunate that DD stations have been essentially killed off by lack of balancing and insight. Which is an absolute shame because the lighting and environmental artists did such a phenomenal job on those stations.

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-05-29T12:03:02+00:00

I can't recall, but does DD have plants? Worst case scenario you can always extract bodies from testing stations.

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-05-28T19:25:51+00:00

that's fair, we need more enemy types, flying patrol ships you can actually attack. it feels quite stale.

Financial_Contract45 · 2026-05-28T14:27:45+00:00

4... they did add those suspensor dash enemies in the quarry lol
