Dune 2000 > Dune: Spice Wars

[DRUNK_CANADIAN]

Seriously, I have been watching some footage of this and I can't help but feel that Dune 2000 is the superior Dune experience.

...which is kind of sad tbh....

....also yes I am a sweaty mouth-breather.

Dune I & Dune II made on the earliest of house Computers, before Windows 98...

Were the only good Dune Games, & if
i'm not mistaken... Dune II improved everything on the 1st Game...

Kinda like the T1 & T2 thing was done...

-------------------

People would debate which was better, though Dune I or Dune II...

I heard the new Dune Movie was crap,
but never saw it, & kept wanting to, just I keep thinking it's gonna suck... So I just keep blowing it off...

1.) The large Sand Worm in the Trailer, was the biggest thing that keeps me from watching it, the Worm looks poorly CGI together, oO

2.) I get the feeling the only thing they got right was the design of the World...

But I could be wrong, oO

Could you elaborate a big? Not exactly a lot to go on here

I loved the new movie, and the old movie, and read the books and loved them. And this game looks awesome.

Never got a chance to read the books or novels, knew about the Encyclopedia, but never got a chance to grab a copy of it myself...

I've played Dune I, but only owned Dune II on a CD, & still have it, including what should be the box it came in somewhere... :)

I was looking for the encyclopedia on ebay. It's available.. for a price. You should try the books. The lore of it all is incredible. I was also able to snag a digital copy of the encyclopedia, so that helps as well.

At least you're honest about it. It's apples and oranges. At this point I have to conclude y'all are trolling with these comparisons between this game and the westwood RTSes. Like, you can't be that daft and ignorant.

Even though i understand and share the sentiment about wanting a proper RTS with a proper singleplayer campaign instead of this 4x skirmish nonsense, this bizzare love for Dune 2000 is against what the game actually was - poorly received at launch as a primitive C&C clone that wasnt up to par with the best games of 1998.

It's a bit funny keep seeing it mentioned here as some good game that should have been copied

It is Dune 2000 redone but with freman as the 3rd faction, pulled the same Duke Leto speech used to sell D-2000. I don't see where the dev's can take this game to far but one can hope. You can bet they will publish so we can enjoy some questionable DLC. I will be braking out my 90's laptop and the disc for Dune 2000 to compare. I Do enjoy all things dune and will buy the game but expecting disappointment in long-term pliability and multi-player support. We need a Dune MMO. If you need something to do when you finish this re-fake. Listening to Heretics as I wright this out. Happy Spicing, Hope the Worms are cool and tougher then the original but how dose one make a worm cool?

Yes, yes they can. I hope you do not plan on interacting with game communities a lot. You will have a hard time (with your nerves)

This is northguard Dune dkin edition. The amount of similar mechanics is lame, the combat is lame. It looks about the same to me, fun for a couple games then gets boring fast. They need a LOT of content... EA is getting pathetic these days...

EA had nothing to do with this, It's Funcom

No, Dune 1 was real-time, it's just that the real-time part was very slow and indirect.

Sorry but no. Dune I was turn based. I still have my floppy disks.

You might be confusing it with something, the game had no turns whatsoever. You could stand in the desert and watch as the time of day changed on its own. All it had was a button to skip half a day forward.

I wouldn't mind a Dune 2000 update, not gonna lie. This one seems really cool but the straight RTS was awesome as well, back in the day.

thats what I was hoping for but I guess I\ll Keep dreaming XD

Dune 2000 = Emperor: Battle for Dune > Dune: Spice Wars
