In Dune: Awakening's single-player mode, players have noticed that transitioning between the Deep Desert and Hagga Basin maps triggers a new sandstorm each time. This recurring storm generation disrupts gameplay, particularly in the Deep Desert where storms are less predictable and players must frequently shelter their assault Ornithopters to avoid damage. It remains unclear whether this is an intended mechanic or a bug, but it is causing repeated interruptions and frustration. The community is calling for clarification and potential fixes to improve the experience.
- Sandstorms appear anew with every map transition between Deep Desert and Hagga Basin.
- Players must repeatedly hide assault Ornithopters to avoid storm damage.
