In the latest Dune: Awakening patch, Funcom made a mistake while deploying a deep desert layout change, resulting in multiple PvE areas abruptly switching to PvP. The areas that were affected were heavily populated with end-game bases full of vehicles and valuable loot, and when the zone changed—swarms of base raiders could smell the blood in the water.
It wasn't long before players began reporting massive losses at the hands of looters, with many players saying they wouldn't be returning to the game unless there was a rollback. Fortunately, Funcom has quickly addressed the situation and has responded to the community.
"On Monday the 7th of July, we patched out a layout change to the Deep Desert which caused several areas of the PvE Deep Desert to become PvP enabled. This was an oversight in our development process and internal communications, which led to people suffering an unfortunate amount of lost bases and equipment."
In a sincere apology letter to Dune fans, Funcom has stated players can expect to receive reimbursement for their lost vehicles and items by the end of the week.
Not only is Funcom planning to reimburse players that were affected by the layout change...
