Players in Dune: Awakening's single player mode have noted that world time pauses when logging out, unlike the persistent live server environment. This pause affects passive resource gathering and base facility operations, making progression slower and more tedious. Originally balanced for continuous time flow, the mechanic creates a bottleneck that changes gameplay dynamics significantly. The community is calling for solutions to enable persistent time in single player, highlighting a key design challenge for developers to improve solo play experience.
