Dune 2: The Sleeper Has Awakened v1.44 Combat 1

This is a three-video series showing a brief game as the Harkonnen taking on the other factions. I will try to highlight as many elements of gameplay as I can with annotations.

@plazafob Thanks :)

The game has progressed a long way since this video. Join the forums and follow the blog to talk to other players and get the latest version.

That's hard to say... The user interface, probably. Between lots of options for map scrolling, controlling and selecting units, much larger visual area and much larger map size, I think that would have to be it. But you should give it a try and see what you think. :) There are mercs, new units/buildings, etc...

When I am finished, the greatest improvement will probably be multiplayer.

A 3d version would look more "modern". My game is intended to resemble the original as much as feasible.

id like it to have at least as good graphics as on megadrive

and FPS only!

[drackbolt]

Yep, not a fan myself. 3d belongs in FPS games.

3D sucks.

What's the greatest improvements have you made in comparison with the original Dune II?

I wonder how a 3D version of Dune would look like, or a version with a more comprehensive tech tree, and more varied gameplay.
