I’m starting to wonder if there is a hidden underdog bonus. Lansgrad had a hand in buggy for like 2200 points if whatever. I hand one in and got like 4300 points.
Our faction (hark) constantly loses lansgrad
In any case, 3 mk3 buggy for a mk6 pulse sword schematic is a good deal lol

Grabbed this finally, the PvP aspect turned me off, but apparently you can avoid it entirely except the one area?
Was looking at private servers, but doesn't seem to be a big benefit, so I didn't bother.
Anyone people playing on the regular in one place? Don't need a regular posse, but people to do shit with from time to time be good. I'll prob rando some low pop server if not.

pvp is basically entirely avoidable. literally every shipwreck is a pvp zone, but no one is in them. if you die in those you loose nothing. you drop your junk bag but all yoru items are fine. the pvpers are in teh pvp part of the deep desert.
You can basically build everything (albeit very slowly) without engaging with the pvp. when you do g o into the pvp areas, at least on my server, i've literally never had a person try to fight me for any reason. There's just such a wide area with almost no greifers. Though admitadly i play early in the day usually.

Wife and I built the carrier, crawler, large spice ref etc just completely bored with nothing to do. Rarely any schematics of interest the DD POI chests are constantly empty. Lack of content in DD just hits hard makes ending the game on a negative note. We managed the PVP /griefing but even if it wasn't there doesn't change the fact there really isn't anything to do.

All my bros did a "quiet quitting" on Dune. Everyone was having a blast the first month or so and then one-by-one they started to drop. There were legit real world reasons for some people to bail, but for the most part everyone was just looking for an excuse.
I still putter around in Dune for the survival/base building, but I don't see that lasting much longer.

My new world friends started the game late so they’re still interested, but they’ve tempered expectations. Goal right now is to accumulate as much as possible, that way when more content comes out we can come out swinging. The game has a really strong core and combat on foot is fun
Plus they like to PvP so that helps
Last night we did a spice operation with 2 carriers 2 crawlers and escort. Some guy put on a harko skin, flew right next to a crawler, and started to blast. I was flying the carrier so I went to pin the attacker, then everyone else dove down and blew him the fuck up after I picked up the crawler and got some altitude
The lack of friendly highlights does make friendly fire a big risk, though. One of the escorts got mistaken for an attacker and almost got fragged lol

Also, the way bases work makes the quitting process happen very quickly. If you're not willing to log into a game you're not actively playing for 20 minutes to keep it running, well, you're basically saying fuck it.
I know personally, it made it much easier to just quit cold turkey. I'm not going to linger just managing resources to a game I'm not actually playing. That's absurd.

if i get to the point i'm going to actively quit dune for later i'd prolly disassemble my non assault copters and buggy stuff those in the b ank, load my assault copter with key resources and park it at harko city...dunno if that works but i kind of presume it gets no decay docked there

If you do quit for extended break, I’d recommend just keeping the hard to get shit like spice melange and plastinium ingots, maybe a bit of duralumin, your buggy cutterray and storage, and some misc stuff. So long as you can get a buggy, it’s easy as shit to farm the Hagga basin materials. Store it in town bank + assault thopter hold and have your scout pocketed and log out in town
Anything lower priority, make a basic fief at the bottom of Hagga Rift and make a storage base. Make it layered and put important storage and console deep inside. No taxes and even if you forget to fill the generators, bases decay even more slowly down there. Assuming they don’t change shit, your base could still be there a month or more after the power fails

Private server just shares the hark/atredies towns and DD from what I understand. Everything else is private though, so no risk of muppets when I just want to build/grind, which is the main point for me. I chose one of smallest pop world servers, so should be quiet for the rest.
The xrealms host allows you to rent an entire world server and make it entirely PvE, but it's around $300ish a month, so fuck no lol.
Fun so far, restarted a couple time, best part of a game like this, when I have no idea what going on.

though not a soul is in those swordman/mentalist/swordmaster quest wrecks. the final story area too (but i think it's instanced).
I'm pretty sure T4 power packs are the ones you can make pre DD, and they drop like candy from boxees in the basin dungeons. i have a large box completely full of scavenged (half damaged) shields, power packs and full suspensors. i get so many i've literally never built one. i just throw on a new half dead one twhen the old one dies and carry a spare.
I imagine some servers may have busy pvp wrecks in quest areas, but i literally never saw another person and did my quests in a lazy sloven manner. the only preperation i did was to leave my coins in my base box incase i died to pvp johnny and he stole my coins.
