    Tanks

    One other quick point. What about missile tanks? They can stand on rock and shoot out into the sand. Kinda like the artillery the Baron uses in Dune.

    Tanks

    I agree tanks should be left out of the game; it sticks with Dune. Well, tanks on SAND anyway. Nothing to keep tanks and other ground vehicles from rushing through the city streets exterminating everything. And yes, a couple thousand running madmen would attract worms, but hey, Muad'dib got away with it =) One other thing. In Dune: House Atredies, Dr. Kines had a trike-like thing he rode around in, so yes, I suppose they could have vehicles that crossed sand, although having a worm suddenly chomp ya would hurt
  3. I love the Harkonnen theme! yeah......that's about all I have to say on that subject.

    Hey You..!!!

    well, it's bedtime, but i got a few minutes to spare. I'm 15 yrs old, live in Texas, and am a Christian. Which doesn't mean i don't do weird stuff...such as carve my name in the front lawn with the weedwacker or apply for credit cards over the phone, or sign my friends up for weight watcher's programs. i'm a big dune freak, love Tom Clancy (Jack Ryan's my hero), and am big into theater. I currently act in my spare time and get paid to program lights and sound for various theatrical shows for various companies and schools. My partner and I make a lotta money that way. ummmmmmm, let's see, what else is there? I got a big 'ol head ache right now (i just finished whooping up on some cussers who thought it fun to do a 2 against me game, but found even a Christian can become angry enough to tear out eyeballs). If i think of anything else, i'll let ya'll know!

    Dune 2000 problem

    yeah, i couldn't play for eternity cuz i accidentally installed Directx 4. get version 7.0a (best out there)
  6. i've never heard of heat.net, but i'll check it out. As for playing dune2k without the cd, that could turn into a serious copyright problem if people start making copies of the game and selling it off. It's easier to clone programs off the computer than if they were on the cd.
  7. the only real thing i missed in dune2k was the inaccuracy of the missile tanks. It's more realistic in dune 2. you're missile's were affected by the wind and weren't always accurate...just like real life.
  8. are u using a trainer or editor? if u are, the game won't work online--u have to hack it manually, but let's not even start on that one. if u are using a trainer/editor, i suggest re-installing dune2k. GOD BLESS U 2
  9. actually, i just played a 5 way (or started to, but my bedtime's coming up soon) It was a bit slow--but i have a 56k modem. :( yes, they have hacked the game. i've seen 1 player games and -156 player games. it's incredible (for more info look in the ONLINE CHEATERS OR MEGA STRATEGISTS topic for more info on what's going on in dune2k with the hacking.
  10. ok, i gotta correct myself You know how u can play 6 to 200000000+ player games online now, cuz people have hacked the game? Well, i just tried a 5 way with Shaggybel. pretty interesting. For starters, he game each team an ADDITIONAL 9 infantry men (why he did that, i have no clue) He then proceeded to make ONLY his tanks cost $1 to build. I left cause it was a litle too slow and my bedtime is approaching. So, yes, there are some mega-cheaters out there, but there are also some incredible strategists i've played against--such as KINGOFDLA. he's pretty good--taught me some stuff. these hackers do it for fun, but u gotta be carefull nowadays, especially if u want a clean, honest game. Check the host and other people in the game to make sure they haven't hacked it. And if the game is hacked repeatedly by the same person, inform ww. AFter a while, it isn't fun anymore.
  11. I believe Dune is the best--but Dune: House Atredies comes pretty close to it. The philosophy that was in the original series isn't in House Atredies--which is why it comes short of Dune. But it's got all the imagination and action that made Dune a hit with thrill-seekers.
  12. yeah, i'm into all those "side-kicks" to Duke Leto (Duncan, Thurfir, Gurney)--but, without Duncan, Paul would have died half-way through the book (Duncan made himself a "door" between the Sardakaur and Paul and Jessica so they could escape and, sadly, dies doing it) It would really whomp if they left out Duncan. He's my favorite character :(

    Dune 2000 problem

    make sure u got directx 5.0 or higher (it should come with the game. if not, check microsoft's website for the latest version).
  14. u know, the FBI needs to form an online police force to keep people from hacking and terrorising people online.
