Players have identified a gameplay issue in Dune: Awakening where sub-fiefs, including large mega-bases and their valuable loot containers, decay very slowly even when fully abandoned and exposed. This sluggish decay prevents storages from being looted promptly, effectively locking away resources and limiting scavenger-style gameplay. Observations note that while vehicles like sand crawlers and assault ornihopters visibly deteriorate, the sub-fiefs themselves remain intact for extended periods. Accelerating decay rates could free up unused real estate and foster more dynamic interactions with abandoned bases in the game world.
- Sub-fiefs remain intact too long despite abandonment.
- Faster decay would enable better resource scavenging.
