When your stable, well-paying job collecting taxes for the Imperium gets deleted with an update.

This is the best summary of what 2025 felt like..

Life is good.

New Public Test Client dropped yesterday.

If you have time, please test the upcoming features and submit bug/feedback reports so the dev team can polish them up before we release it on live.

Thanks! 🙇

We understand that some of you who enjoyed the new behavior might be disappointed and we can’t wait to bring it back along with the rest of the balance changes we have in store at a later date!

Thanks for all your feedback. Please keep it coming! #duneawakening

Sleepers,
In patch 1.2.20.0, undocumented changes were made that caused enemy NPCs to dash out of the way of attacks and abilities much more often. While this is an intended change that aligns with our goal of making them behave more like players, we will revert it this week.

We fixed it this morning, so the nodes should be back in the A row as normal. Thanks!

Also, the missing Titanium Ore nodes from row A in the Deep Desert are not an intended change and the team is looking into it as we speak.

Thanks! #duneawakening

There was some chatter following yesterday's patch that rusher enemies are dashing out from slow blade attacks more than before.

It was an undocumented change caused by a fix to a bug preventing them from dodging while they still had stamina.

We updated the patch notes now!

Another patch with the highly-requested option to travel with harnessed vehicles across maps in #duneawakening!

We have more cooking in the oven. Stay tuned!

We have more details about the upcoming tool that lets you save your base in #duneawakening.

It is now officially called the "Base Reconstruction Tool."

The team is back with the Signals, too. There are some very cool community highlights to check out!

The Base Backup Tool we talked about in our previous Developer Update is ready for testing.

The team is still polishing the tool, but we wanted to release it to the community as soon as possible. #duneawakening

We are doing well, friend. I hope the same applies to you!

Gotcha. That's A LOT of storage used for schematics alone. I'll chat with the team next week and see what's on their mind.

Went to see the #chainsawman yesterday with @igmiro.dev Absolutely spectacular to watch on the big screen with the right dose of humour. Go and watch it if you can!

We have changed the loot distribution in DD some time ago to have most of the bps available with different drop rates, but there are no immediate plans to change the UI that I know of.

What are your pain points?

A brand new Developer Update, which covers quite a few exciting things coming to #duneawakening.

Have questions? Is there anything in particular you would like to hear more about next time? Let us know!

Has anyone tried giving candy to a Sardaukar instead of fighting them? That just might do the trick this Halloween.

We will be deploying a new hotfix tomorrow, October 23 at 10:00 CEST / 08:00 UTC

The expected downtime is 60 minutes and there will be a client download.

Patch notes will be published once the hotfix is out.

Safe travels!

Lastly, a good trip requires delicious food. KBBQ is the first thing I look for when visiting new places and, oh boy, did San Diego deliver!

San Diego also turned out to be a beautiful and walkable city. I tried to get every bit of sunshine I could to charge my batteries since this would be my last chance at summer this year.

A huge shout to Mitsu from #Twitch for having me on the panel during the event with industry superstars! It's always fun to share insights and learn how others work with the creator community on Twitch.

I'm really happy that I crossed the ocean to catch up with old friends and make new connections—this is the best part of every event!

I hope that everyone got home safe and sound 🤟

Now, as I sit jetlagged at home, I'm feeling the post-event blues. I want to go back to #TwitchConSanDiego!

Thanks, sweetheart 😘

Ready for Twitchcon with @spynosaur.bsky.social!
