Developers recently patched out the ability of ornithopters to &#8220;<a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/mmo\/dune-awakening-patch-fixes-the-ornithopter-goomba-stomp-problem-in-pvp-just-not-in-the-way-i-expected\/\">goomba stomp<\/a>&#8221; players on the ground (although in kind of a half-assed way) but even without that goofy exploit, air power still dominates: As PC Gamer&#8217;s own <strong>Lisan al Gaib<\/strong> Chris Livingston <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/mmo\/funcom-says-its-working-on-a-bunch-of-changes-for-dune-awakening-pvp-after-player-calls-out-the-survival-mmos-biggest-issue\/\">recently wrote about Dune: Awakening&#8217;s PvP combat<\/a>, &#8220;In most fights it&#8217;s just pilots trading missiles with each other in the air instead of engaging on the surface with swords, shields, and skills.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Establishing ornithopter-free zones &#8220;is not the plan,&#8221; Bylos said. &#8220;However, a lot of our adjustments and balancing are going to drive combat towards the core vision, which is people competing over points of interest in the Deep Desert. The current balance between vehicles and on-foot is not tuned to our liking and there are multiple changes in the pipeline to address this (above and beyond bugs we will fix).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Funcom also isn&#8217;t planning to remove rocket launchers from scout ornithopters, the source of another common PvP complaint. Instead, it&#8217;s working on changes that will see a scout ornithopter&#8217;s speed and maneuverability impacted by its loadout: Specifics weren&#8217;t provided but presumably you&#8217;ll be able to either come heavy or go fast, but not both.<\/p>\n<p>That, Sommerbakk said, will make the assault ornithopter a better choice when you specifically want to engage in combat, but still leave some offensive capability available to the scout for those who want it.<\/p>\n<p>Bylos acknowledged that he was &#8220;not being very concrete&#8221; in his answers, but said that&#8217;s because the team is still &#8220;planning and watching how people are playing and finding the right points to address.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>One thing that is on the way, though\u2014not related to PvP but that I find interesting just because it&#8217;s Dune\u2014is &#8220;sandwalking,&#8221; the Fremen ability to walk the surface of Arrakis without <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/mmo\/i-cant-stop-watching-these-dune-awakening-videos-showing-players-having-butt-puckeringly-close-calls-with-angry-sandworms\/\">attracting the attention of sandworms<\/a>.
