Zitat:
Hello everyone!
Community Update #3 is now live! This update includes several reworks and balancing changes all inspired by your feedback and suggestions. The standout feature? Our brand-new spectator mode!
Check out the full list of changes below and let us know what you think. We’re excited to hear your feedback on these latest improvements!
Spectator Mode
Multiplayer lobbies can be set up to allow up to 8 spectators. Eliminated players can keep watching the game as spectators.Pillaged Sietch rework
Fremen can no longer build in a devastated sietch. They can, however, repopulate them for a large cost, which removes the “devastated” trait. To compensate, Fremen now have 1 more building slot in their Main Base, forming a new 1-slot district. The eligibility condition for Dune Governorship has also been revised to only account for non-devastated sietches. The condition is now:- control 1/5 of the map
- ally all non-devastated sietches
- at least 3/4 of sietches are not devastated
Assassination UX rework
Assassination UI has been improved with additional information on what you are supposed to do. A new option “Assassination tips” will help with learning the Assassination mechanics through targeted alerts. The option is “on” by default. The “imperial intelligence” Landsraad resolution, that allows Cell Search, even without having detected any assassination attempt, now works properly: you can prepare Cell Search operations, but also use them on your territory.Spaceship Balancing
