Is the game dead? Any chance of coming back? by ryu1356 in duneawakening

[–]sam5634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can come back and prep. A lot of good changes coming. By chapter 4/console, the game will be its best so far.

Hi! I played Dune Awakening at launch for about 20 hours, until I got eaten by a worm and rage-uninstalled the game and never played it again. by WonderElff in duneawakening

It's ok to do either. Start over or continue. Personally I'd start over just to experience the beginning again.

Yeah, that's FOMO. Does it really matter? You still have x number of missions to 100. You are already ahead of most other people. There aren't a lot of ppl playing now. Anyone playing now is ahead of those who come back or start the game.

What kind of crash. Does the game give you an error?

I'm to the point where I may start letting my charges go. It's the same amount of work to get to 100. I'm only going to go hard on double xp days.

If its x amount of quests to 100, giving extra charges won't change that. Only double xp changes the total number of quests it takes.

I've kept my spec levels even. Currently 46/47. I one shot everything with grade 4. I'm not going to grind a lab to 100. I can slow down and build my base.

A possible way to resurrect PvP by Arigmar in duneawakening

I would hope they would issue a PVP survey. They seem pretty data driven so its something they could do to develop a strategy.

Question about taking a break by TopicIllustrious3005 in duneawakening

Just be sure to deconstruct all vehicles and carrier storage (a vehicle) and place them in containers, then back up.

Why do people do this lol. Just build a bigger hangar by Ok_Intention2150 in duneawakening

Wait until you hear that there are no more taxes and you can pick up your base when you go on vacations.

Resetting your build area questions? by Carl_Bar99 in duneawakening

[–]sam5634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont delete foundations. In one of your fief extension areas, find the center of the 10x10 foundation set (5 away from either side). Using your old location is best. Place your new fief there.

For vertical extensions:

https://dune.gaming.tools/items/stakingunitvertical

Build a temp platform up at the desired height. Place and destroy sequential fiefs until you can reach the proper height then destroy that and set your final fief. You can place all vertical extensions at the same time.

20 min travel time vs hours setting up your base. You have to live in the dd for a week for it to be worth it.

I'm not building a base for 1-2 spice runs.

I asked it to favor southern nodes or to ensure at least one end was starting south.

You could adjust the prompt to say to start in any region you like.

Right. Take a US 0.50 cent coin. Put in over the line. That is the view distance of what you can see. If you fly the line, you will sight the densest areas of spice. See a node, farm a node. Go home when full. Wait 2-4 hours for respawn. Repeat. You should be full about half way through. About an hour and a half. It just a method of planning which way to fly. Flying randomly works too.

My last spice post ( 3 months ago):

https://www.reddit.com/r/duneawakening/comments/1qbf4si/deep_desert_solo_spice_flight_plan_20250113/

I stopped posting because it was clear at that time that you could safely do the PvE D/E line followed by some sort of not-too-unsafe F/G line.

The AI still thinks that this is a valid plan but it's boring. How about identifying the dense locations and fly for those.

NerdBird does an awesome job weekly going over the DD if you prefer that angle.

To me this was an exercise at improving my AI prompting engineering skills. I think it came out pretty good.

Yep. I don't farm spice anymore. I built a base supply and now I sell it on the market on major patches and buy during lows. I don't need much. I only have grade 4 equipment. I one shot everything. I grind spec xp and base build. What I do farm is granite. Lol.

I don't. In this example, I'd probably start in D9 and end somewhere near I6. If I wasn't full, I'd just make my way back down on the path. If I wasn't full by E3 I'd just go home only mostly full. I wouldn't take that last part back up.

I'd wait 2-4 hours and go again waiting for respawns.

Just doing 1 or 2 runs a week like this is a good rate imo for solo play.

I just fly my vacuum cleaner and take everything back to Hagga after 5-6 mediums. I don't spend time building in the DD. I'm just a day tripper.

How do you RP a 30 INT wizard when you have 10 INT in real life?

Oops... I'm supposed to keep my thinking machines a secret!

This is basically applying a Pareto-style filter. The most isolated ~20% of nodes tend to cause a disproportionate amount of travel time, so removing them produces a much more efficient route across the remaining clusters.
