Popular Post TeamWolf Posted April 1, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 Read all about the new development direction for Battle for Dune: War of Assassins and get a sneak peak at some of the upcoming maps! Battle for Dune April Update! Hello everyone and welcome to this April BFD update! I know that we have once again been very quiet but that is all for a great reason!!The team have been talking a lot about how long it's taken the project to release and how we can seriously cut down on work time, all in the aim to get you the best Dune game that you deserve! So, after much talk and much planning and redesigning we've finally come to a model that we all agree one!I present to you, Battle for Dune: War of Assassins the Real Time Strategy game!We realised how long things were taking and how we could best recreate Emperor: Battle for Dune, the answer was staring at us the entire time!!But enough with the reason why, here is what we have to show so far!! As you can see, we have all our maps that we've already shown off, Spice, Shield Wall, Dune Patrol and another new map, Lima Outpost!! Lima Outpost will be leading the way to our new gametype, Last Stand! In this gametype you control one Hero infantry or a Squad and you must take out the other players units!!To go along with our new direction we'll be fully recreating all of Emperor's features, improving them and adding more! Some of those features include; Constant Cloaked Snipers Earth Thinking Machines Rain! A new Green toxic resource! A new faction, The CHOAM Mercs Trees And much, much more! Off I go, like a wild Ass into the desert! Well that's it for this fun packed and overflowing update, I hope you liked it and expect to see more about it here, soon!!! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raap Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 Since W3D was also used in C&C Generals (just updated and renamed to SAGE), it's actually a surprise to me why nobody tried producing an RTS project up until now using W3D. This engine is a lot more accessible than the SAGE engine and with the right amount of work it could produce a better RTS game than anything on the SAGE engine. Looking forward to seeing more progress. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamWolf Posted April 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Earth? You mean Caladan? Newp. They're two different planets. Yes, I was referring to the once toxic and radioactive wasteland which is now nothing more than a glass ball called Terra. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delta Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 So, do I need to read Dune, and then play the RTS games (I assume it's just C&C gameplay in another setting?), in order to get what's going on here? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killing_You Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Not necessarily, but you should read Dune anyway. It's one of the best books ever written, and my personal favorite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, since the games take a different direction with a different universe inside of Dune's. But as Killing_You said, read the book(s) by all means they are great!

Isaac The Madd Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 (edited) (I played the games first) I never played the games. Also the infamous tiny text is here, you know one you have to copy and paste to read that everybody hates.

The Baron will be happy Hey there, I'm really sorry to burst the bubble but this was an April Fools joke! We are still going to be making an FPS/TPS but we agree that another Dune RTS is really needed! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killing_You Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 I'd like to see another movie as well, to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamWolf Posted April 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 I'd like to see another movie as well, to be honest. Yeah but if the last project for that couldn't take off, even with all of it's concept art, its highly unlikely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
