Fans of Dune: Awakening can now download patch 1.1.0.13, a hotfix aimed at smoothing out gameplay with improved server stability and key bug resolutions. This update is a must for players on Arrakis looking for a seamless experience.
Essential Fixes in Patch 1.1.0.13
The latest hotfix for Dune: Awakening tackles several nagging issues. Funcom has rolled out backend enhancements to boost both client and server stability, ensuring fewer crashes and smoother multiplayer sessions. If you’ve been struggling with connection hiccups, this could be a game-changer.
Contract and Faction Updates
Some story contracts have seen tweaks in this update. Notably, the option to betray Jocasta Cleo in the 'Impact of Ecology' contract has been temporarily disabled due to progression bugs. Additionally, dialogue in the 'Planetologist: Advanced: the Search for Kynes' contract has been updated to fix issues for players who’ve defected from the Atreides faction. These changes aim to keep your journey through Arrakis’ political intrigue uninterrupted.
What’s Fixed for Guilds and Graphics?
Beyond stability, the patch resolves a frustrating bug that prevented players from editing guild descriptions, sub-fief console names, and base blueprints. Plus, the 'Limit CPU Usage' graphics setting now works across all quality presets, giving tech-savvy survivors more control over performance. Small wins, but they add up!
How to Get the Update
This client-side download may require restarting your Steam client if it doesn’t start automatically. Servers are expected to be back online shortly after deployment. For a deeper dive into known issues, check the official Discord server or Steam discussion boards.
