the golden days of Westwood studios, before EA took em over and fucked the whole Dune and C&C franchise up. Looking back at this you can really see that Westwood were studio that really cared about their games. The music was amazing, the missions were challenging but fun and it was an epic (revolutionary almost) game for it's time. This is probably one of my top 10 favourite games...ever :) thanks for this little nostalgia trip you provided
With all honesty, this game actually wasn't made by Westwood, it was outsourced to Intelligent games, Westwood was only supervising. So even though it's a bit infuriating to say, Westwood actually didn't care all that much. Truth to be told, Dune 2000 has IMO smoother and more polished gameplay, than the C&C titles that were homemade by Westwood.
Mass Effect! I feel your pains! They did do a copy and paste sort of job on these games, but that was okay for the time! Better than many studioes now tbh. They just make boring simple paste B.S., I use the Civ games as a direct example of this.
Really the only things that seem dated is the resolution options and physical disc DRM, and both were fixed with fan patches long ago. Gruntmods Dune 2000 in hd does not feel like playing a 20 year old game. It looks good, runs on modern systems without issues. 10/10 RTS in 2023.

@@josepoika5388 .. Have you been looking into Satanism ? What about if everything has a God/Kami like in Shintoism ? You ever heard or read the wise words of Buddhisme and Daoism ? A lot of things has come out of India, I believe Hinduisme is the first and oldest religion... why is this not the truth ? One God ...? Why not more Gods ? No one can or has prooven God(s) exist. So the most reasonable "belief" would be Agnostic Atheism.
OMG that nostalgia 😂 I remember that annoying piece of shit when it swallowed my army The only thing i remember fully about this game from 20 years ago 😅😅
I used to send an engineer to capture enemy buildings with a concrete slab on hold at .1% from completion. as soon as the engineer captured a building I would lay the concrete down before the captured building was destoryed. Then I was able to build anything on their base so long as it was near the concrete I layed down (lay more concrete to spread out). Lastly, I would build a Baracks to 99% completion and put it on hold and train an engineer to 99% then put him on hold too. I would then finish the Baracks on the enemy's base with the entrance next to a building I was going to capture, make the baracks the primary building, finish training the engineer, and capture the nearest building. The engineer never got harmed cause the baracks was the first traget. Sell the captured building and repeat till the base was gone.
John Paul Hohenshilt if you capture cheap buildings like wind trap or light factory, you'll lose money... Engineers are expensive... But i think, when you reach that stage.. Money is not a problem anymore..😎
Probably won't work in multiplayer You should still be able to take advantage by building defensive buildings with your first part tho That way you can quickly gain more map control, which is essential for good harvesting
@@Toneai2007 Main point of his strategy, he has slab, barracks and engineer ready so as soon as he captures one enemy building he places slab, barracks and makes new engineer in seconds so a new engineer can capture another building quickly. Risky/ pricy and not that effective strategy if you can`t defend own base and would never work in multiplayer as human player is not stupid and would occupy concreet slabs build by oponent.
@@z00mbi3s Yes, I get the point of the strategy, what I was wondering was not letting the "building fiinish" and only finishing it after engineer grabs a building, you can have any building finished and it would be waiting in construction tab to be placed. I know the tactic, have fooled computer with it many a times, just the way he put it is bit inefficient.
radim22 It's a tough call for me. This game's graphics are definitely very polished, and if you notice the vehicles turn around very smoothly - that's because there are a lot of turning animation frames, probably 16. And the graphics still look very tidy and crisp today. Graphically, this could very well be mistaken for a mobile title coming out today.
This game was the first game I played. I started playing this game when I was 3 yrs old. Had so much fun playing this with my uncle. This game has a atmosphere that others don't. Awesome soundtrack, challenging missions, nostalgic environment and last but not least its story behind. When I hear this game's music, it makes me go back a decade. My all time favorite.
This game is a masterpiece, I wonder what kind of people could have made such great work. And I used to love those dark purple super soldiers, has been my favorite color ever since :')
@Artuurs Z. Exactly my point. Actually I tried this again at full speed and I got bored playing on because of the luck factor. I tried so many times with varying success. Luck factor arises because of your skill at micromanaging at that speed. It was so fcuking easy when i played it slow last time but it did need some strategic placing on troops which was fun to plan
I used to played this game so much as a kid. Tbh I kind of cheated most missions by sending a horde of engineers to enemy bases and taking over just one building. Then I placed concrete so I could place buildings there and spammed baracks and engineers to take over other buildings xD
good old devastator spam, remember spamming devs on multiplayer 4 devs 1 siege (still remember troopers being dangerous) but absolutely crushed combat tank spammers!
Despite probably being 10 years since I played this game, I can still remember the what the various buildings do and how to play the game. This is my number one childhood game , happy times :)
Hardest mission in the game by far imo. Version 2 is a cakewalk by comparison. I only learned this decades later. As a kid, I thought the Harkonnen campaign was the easiest one. But had I clicked this instead, I might not have finished the game as Harkonnen back then.
@Count Cobalt Hmm, that doesn't sound correct either. As far as i can remember, in books Atreides used RED EAGLE as their symbol, while Harkonnen used BLUE griffon. Harkonnens got ram as their symbol due to a mistake in Dune Encyclopedia. Ordos too had theyr symbol changed. In DE they had crossed bones as their symbol, but later got snake, which belonged to another house. But while Harkonnen's ram was a mistake, Ordos' snake was deliberate choice made by developers.
I think the developer's just wanted to use iconic colours of bad guy and good guy, as in the books, Atreides were the hero's and Harkonnen were the villains.
@@JohnDoe-lb2hp I read somewhere that the Harkonnen might have their origins around Finland on (in the Dune universe) ancient Earth and that "Härkä" in finnish means "bull", and that's why they got a bull or ram as their symbol. The name "Harkonnen" alone sounds very finnish.
Even though this is straight from C&C, I really like a lot of the unique aspects, like upgrading buildings, not to mention those sonic tanks. Looks cool!
Awesome thanks. "Worm attacks" still gives me the creeps. I always played Atreides and i always hated the Harkonnen missilies destroying half my base. Or was that on Dune 2? And i remember the massive nuclear Harkonnen tanks in Dune 2.
Looks like you didn't hear about Dune 2 The Golden Path. Its main focus is multiplayer and gameplay was adjusted to modern strategies, so no more single unit orders! Matches are being played every day and this is supported project. If you want to learn more just google it (Dune 2 TGP).
Actually all houses are equal if you know how to play with them. And yes there are differences between houses, not just by unique units. For example, Ordos strenght is in speed, most their units, including unique, are faster than in other houses, Atraides, are balances in all, speed, strenght and defense, Harkonnen sacrifice speed (defense stays same as Atraides) in order to gain more strenght, 1vs1 (tanks for example) against Harkonnen no other house has chance to win. Hope this was useful. :)
You guys are both right, one of you is talking about Dune 2, the other about Dune 2000. The original comment stating this is a rip off of RA is also right in a way, because what he means is that the infantry units WW used in Dune 2000 are the same they used in RA, and those were not used for Dune 2. This was also subject to criticism in Dune 2k reviews as WW did not put much effort into this remake, but it's still my most favorite game.
@UTCyborg Hey man, glad you like the video, of course it could have always been better, depends on how many attempts you give it. I have tried like 50 attempts beating this mission without turrets, but no luck. So only in this mission I use them, you can see I dont use turrets or walls normally so i suck at placing them :) The worm actually ate 3 harvesters (after eating 3 units he disappears), leaving me with only 1 left. Usually when everything works out perfect it is like 1 game out of 10.
Also I would wall the bottom section first as yeah those are false bottlenecks. The Atreides tanks are easily agile enough to go through it, create decoy for AIs as their siege units stay untouched to shoot at your command center. in front of the part you first turreted are the actual safe zone for that Atreides trampling issue I mentioned before. So usually I just put my infantries there. The only issue is siege units but well it's easier to micro the infantry + rocket turrets right on the open zone. You have a backdoor via the spice hole at the bottom, so you can rotate your units in and out from there, circling your base, and striking every force that comes to attack you with Harkonnen's superior tanks. and oh yeah: leave at least 1 rocket turret on the bottom section, if you decide to wall them. target distraction.
I remember playing this mission i think and i was almost in the the end, then someone touch in the power cable of the PSone who had bad contact and...... NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Ahhh the good old days.. after school. I miss so mutch that moments. Thank you for sharing radim22 greetings from Portugal
Dune 2000 definitely had one of the best game soundtracks. I wish they have the full Dune 2000 version on GoG for sale, since my CD version of the game doesn't work on my W7 64bit machine. I tried the Dune2000online link but the game installer is only 16MB? No cinematics?
@BeFairToYourself I was thinking about playing it on Hard as well. Nothing is recorded at the moment, but I might do it in the near future. If you want to see that mission on easy though then you can find it in my video list.

@UTCyborg There is always some problem like this - worm eats you harv, air strike kills you important building, enemy comes with too many units at once or is just lucky. This was first attempt with turrets, so I was like let's wait until the big wave comes that will finish me off and I will restart. But I kept playing, but no such wave came, and then I knew I was going to win, so I thought it would be interesting to post this to see that the game can be sometimes won after getting fucked up.
One of the things i liked about C&C and DUNE2000. Is that you could limit the techlevel in skirmish mode. When you just wanted to play against very hard AI level for 2/3 hours and just trolling them for fun. And not having to worry about those annoying nucular missiles or Ioncannon strikes.
btw, how good are the turrets against vehicles, compared to rocketturrets vs vehicles? I cant remember, but the feeling says its rocketturrets are preferable .. :P
The Atreides base in the west of the map has almost no turrets in it's western entrance. A rear attack from there would enable you to destroy their conyard, heavy factory and at least one refinery without putting you in striking distance of the east entrance's rocket turrets. A full frontal assault is therefore not necessary. Plus the main Atreides base in the north has an entrance in the north guarded by a single gun turret. An attack there puts you within striking distance of their conyard and palace. Again a full frontal assault is not necessary for victory here.
Yeah, but I don't think it's a good idea. The devastators move slowly, and like this I can move them back to help defend with towers when there is attack from top. If I go around, it has some consequences: 1) It takes time to travel there 2) I'm vulnerable in main base 3) If I wait longer to have defense and decent group to come from behind, I already waste time and there are more units produced from that factory 3) Even if I kill the heavy factory and Yard, I still have to kill the turrets anyway 4) If I come from behind, it is harder to reinforce the units, they also have to go same route around, so you would need to send the exact amount of units to wipe the base 5) There is a threat of getting attacked from the units in the base and also units coming from top left, so the units might get smashed if that happens In short: I was happy to do it like this :D
Yeah man, I tried to do this one several times without Turrets too recently. No chance. I had to use Turrets in the end too. My BO was a bit different from yours (getting the Heavy Factory up earlier, and holding out with regular Turrets for a short while, plugging whichever defense line was failing with a handful of Combat Tanks, before later replacing the regular Turrets with Rocket Turrets - though I think your approach is better), but ultimately I don't see how one could do this mission without them. You just don't have enough staying power otherwise in the opening segments of the game. At least once you've finally secured your defensive perimeter it basically just plays like an incredibly long-winded version of any other mission. Don't have to worry about getting unlucky and having a Death Hand decimate you like you do in the final missions for the other two factions, though the frequent air strikes are tedious until you get critical mass of Rocket Turrets set-up (and can really screw you up early). It does make me wonder how this plays on OpenRA though, seems in that Rocket Turrets are anti-infantry instead of anti-tank. I suppose you could try my approach, but without being able to replace them a bit later with Rocket Turrets if you still wanted to hurt vehicles, I'm not sure how doable it would be, seems you'd end up struggling against the Siege Tank/Rocket Tank spam too as while they don't outrange Rocket Turrets, they do outrange regular Turrets. I expect they' must have had to rebalance the mission on some level. I have zero idea how I managed it when I was younger. Maybe I was a more defense-minded player back then anyway though, so probably would have used Turrets anyway. EDIT: Come to think of it, there is two maps for this, and the other one probably is much easier, so maybe that's simply the one I did when I was a kid lol.
I never played OpenRA and do not plan to do so. As for this original version, I've seen a guy do this mission without any turrets, but basically you need to be nonstop microing units, buildings production, repairing units and harvs management for the first 20 minutes, while also getting lucky (not pulling too many enemies in 1 attack) and you will need to restart many many times and you need top skill level. If you miss one of these, you are out of luck.
Is there any difference between the 3 houses except their unique units like devestator and sonic tank and the airstrike and so on? Cause it seems like ordos unique unit is pretty bad compared to the other houses. No faster harvesting or something?
According to the game manuel, the regular medium assaults tanks are differents, in first place the sprit isn't the same. In second place, Ordos tank is faster but powerless, harkonnen tank is slower but powerful, and atreides tank is in the middle. But to be honnest, i have never seen a real difference while playing the game. Forgive my english
1. I DUNE 2000 for PC elite soldiers but I have not: (Ce type, the special forces soldier Harkonnen and those who throw bombs based birds, and finally, the jeep invisible the Ordos do not have it, I tried to finish the story but did not go out and see that on TH-cam, type in you come out and give them to you at the beginning of the battle. Could you help me please?
Oh, i remember this game. Way harder than Emperor: Battle for Dune. I liked to play as Harkonnen, though i imagined i was the Emperor by picking purple as my color. In fact i went so far as to modify game files to allow building of Imperial palace instead of Harkonnen one. Imagine my joy when i built it the first time! Thing sure looks impressive.
Which capture programm you take for the videos? I would like do the mercenary, smuggler's and Ixian campaign on hard :D But i need a good capture programm =/
still better than halo wars would bet. I used to play the psx version and liked it a lot ,and am thinking of trying the pc version after all this time.
this game changed my life, i played it as a kid and it had such a big impact that i became concept artist!
Wow man. Im studying 3D modeling, remember the time when I played the Dune 2000 game on PS1 when I was a kid .... The only same hardcore gameplay driven value without DLC and micro transactions can be seen in Darkest Dungeon and those types of games. We lost the Long War man, we lost it all ....

Looks like you didn't hear about Dune 2 The Golden Path. Its main focus is multiplayer and gameplay was adjusted to modern strategies, so no more single unit orders! Matches are being played every day and this is supported project. If you want to learn more just google it (Dune 2 TGP).
Actually all houses are equal if you know how to play with them. And yes there are differences between houses, not just by unique units. For example, Ordos strenght is in speed, most their units, including unique, are faster than in other houses, Atraides, are balances in all, speed, strenght and defense, Harkonnen sacrifice speed (defense stays same as Atraides) in order to gain more strenght, 1vs1 (tanks for example) against Harkonnen no other house has chance to win. Hope this was useful. :)
You guys are both right, one of you is talking about Dune 2, the other about Dune 2000. The original comment stating this is a rip off of RA is also right in a way, because what he means is that the infantry units WW used in Dune 2000 are the same they used in RA, and those were not used for Dune 2. This was also subject to criticism in Dune 2k reviews as WW did not put much effort into this remake, but it's still my most favorite game.
As little as I played this game when I was a kid. This was the one that I always thought about when I played Warcraft 2 and Age of Empires
OUR BASE IS UNDER ATTACK!
I LOVED this game as a kid. Once stayed up for 12hrs straight playing.
I once stayed up like 40 hours and mostly played Dune 2k :)
@UTCyborg Hey man, glad you like the video, of course it could have always been better, depends on how many attempts you give it. I have tried like 50 attempts beating this mission without turrets, but no luck. So only in this mission I use them, you can see I dont use turrets or walls normally so i suck at placing them :) The worm actually ate 3 harvesters (after eating 3 units he disappears), leaving me with only 1 left. Usually when everything works out perfect it is like 1 game out of 10.
One of the most fun games I’ve played. Those worms were a pain!!
Also I would wall the bottom section first as yeah those are false bottlenecks. The Atreides tanks are easily agile enough to go through it, create decoy for AIs as their siege units stay untouched to shoot at your command center.
in front of the part you first turreted are the actual safe zone for that Atreides trampling issue I mentioned before. So usually I just put my infantries there. The only issue is siege units but well it's easier to micro the infantry + rocket turrets right on the open zone.
You have a backdoor via the spice hole at the bottom, so you can rotate your units in and out from there, circling your base, and striking every force that comes to attack you with Harkonnen's superior tanks.
and oh yeah: leave at least 1 rocket turret on the bottom section, if you decide to wall them. target distraction.
So many good memories.... Wish I still had this game =(
9:05
That worm is such a dick. ;_; Apart from this, those missile towers are a Godsend indeed.
Yeah he is, it was like my first attempt while using towers.
@Reinc01 Fastest production is 3 factories, it applies to heavy and light factory and barracks. No idea about Emperor though.
I remember playing this mission i think and i was almost in the the end, then someone touch in the power cable of the PSone who had bad contact and...... NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Ahhh the good old days.. after school. I miss so mutch that moments. Thank you for sharing radim22 greetings from Portugal
You are welcome :-) Although, playing this on PS is a sin O.o
Well i discover Dune 2000 in a friend psx and back in days i don't had a pc so... But i'm glad i discover it.
My first RTS game. Prob the best to this day. Ah my childhood was great.
NOSTALGIA ALERT! O_O I used to play this game along time ago and its awesome.
Dune 2000 definitely had one of the best game soundtracks. I wish they have the full Dune 2000 version on GoG for sale, since my CD version of the game doesn't work on my W7 64bit machine. I tried the Dune2000online link but the game installer is only 16MB? No cinematics?

+StoneColdza i tried to run a skirmish game but it says change resolution. tried alot but still not working. any ideas?
used grundmods
"Insufficient funds" ,the most annoying sound when we are in hurry besides " unit lost" lol
GOOOOOD play, dude! The best passthrough I've even seen! I play bad and not a pro gamer at all.
man i still remember this on my playstation when i was a kid and those worms always ate my harvesters are whatever they are xD
Shao khan, is there a legit site which able us to download this game !?
Gruntmode edition
U can play it online at cncnet its more fun
Damn is it free?
@BeFairToYourself I was thinking about playing it on Hard as well. Nothing is recorded at the moment, but I might do it in the near future. If you want to see that mission on easy though then you can find it in my video list.
Who’s here after watching Dune 2020 trailer? :D
me~

Alter dune 2
awesome! but as you take units on the target, not the cursor highlighting?
English please :)
radim22 she mean that you move your units without selecting them ! the cursor is not green
what's the point of building two heavy factories? if you only can use one at time.
wow, this was when games were actually challenging. You were holding on to your dear life defending and then countered. Good old strategy games
hey at 1:13 how to you make the soldier move in random direction ?
Try X :)
@UTCyborg There is always some problem like this - worm eats you harv, air strike kills you important building, enemy comes with too many units at once or is just lucky. This was first attempt with turrets, so I was like let's wait until the big wave comes that will finish me off and I will restart. But I kept playing, but no such wave came, and then I knew I was going to win, so I thought it would be interesting to post this to see that the game can be sometimes won after getting fucked up.
Childhood nights and days went past playing this game
Wow I couldn't even follow half of that, awesome stuff man
Samuel Jansen Thank you man, at least half is a good advancement :)
+Samuel Jansen Game is taken place easily!
Even on complexity Hard.
What?
Samuel Jansen Easy game!
I love this game 🤕 the game and the music so underrated.
wow what a great game.. much more atmosphere then C&C imo. You motivated me to replay the campaign
One of the things i liked about C&C and DUNE2000. Is that you could limit the techlevel in skirmish mode. When you just wanted to play against very hard AI level for 2/3 hours and just trolling them for fun. And not having to worry about those annoying nucular missiles or Ioncannon strikes.
Where can i get this game again !!!!!!! God this brings me right back
I played this game for hourssssssssss. It was awesome :))) Good old days.
btw, how good are the turrets against vehicles, compared to rocketturrets vs vehicles? I cant remember, but the feeling says its rocketturrets are preferable .. :P
I played soo much of this game when I was younger.. half of it mixed in with C&C, and forgot about this title.
The Atreides base in the west of the map has almost no turrets in it's western entrance. A rear attack from there would enable you to destroy their conyard, heavy factory and at least one refinery without putting you in striking distance of the east entrance's rocket turrets. A full frontal assault is therefore not necessary. Plus the main Atreides base in the north has an entrance in the north guarded by a single gun turret. An attack there puts you within striking distance of their conyard and palace. Again a full frontal assault is not necessary for victory here.
Yeah, but I don't think it's a good idea. The devastators move slowly, and like this I can move them back to help defend with towers when there is attack from top. If I go around, it has some consequences:
1) It takes time to travel there
2) I'm vulnerable in main base
3) If I wait longer to have defense and decent group to come from behind, I already waste time and there are more units produced from that factory
3) Even if I kill the heavy factory and Yard, I still have to kill the turrets anyway
4) If I come from behind, it is harder to reinforce the units, they also have to go same route around, so you would need to send the exact amount of units to wipe the base
5) There is a threat of getting attacked from the units in the base and also units coming from top left, so the units might get smashed if that happens
In short: I was happy to do it like this :D
Yeah man, I tried to do this one several times without Turrets too recently. No chance. I had to use Turrets in the end too.
My BO was a bit different from yours (getting the Heavy Factory up earlier, and holding out with regular Turrets for a short while, plugging whichever defense line was failing with a handful of Combat Tanks, before later replacing the regular Turrets with Rocket Turrets - though I think your approach is better), but ultimately I don't see how one could do this mission without them. You just don't have enough staying power otherwise in the opening segments of the game. At least once you've finally secured your defensive perimeter it basically just plays like an incredibly long-winded version of any other mission. Don't have to worry about getting unlucky and having a Death Hand decimate you like you do in the final missions for the other two factions, though the frequent air strikes are tedious until you get critical mass of Rocket Turrets set-up (and can really screw you up early).
It does make me wonder how this plays on OpenRA though, seems in that Rocket Turrets are anti-infantry instead of anti-tank. I suppose you could try my approach, but without being able to replace them a bit later with Rocket Turrets if you still wanted to hurt vehicles, I'm not sure how doable it would be, seems you'd end up struggling against the Siege Tank/Rocket Tank spam too as while they don't outrange Rocket Turrets, they do outrange regular Turrets. I expect they' must have had to rebalance the mission on some level.
I have zero idea how I managed it when I was younger. Maybe I was a more defense-minded player back then anyway though, so probably would have used Turrets anyway.
EDIT: Come to think of it, there is two maps for this, and the other one probably is much easier, so maybe that's simply the one I did when I was a kid lol.
I never played OpenRA and do not plan to do so. As for this original version, I've seen a guy do this mission without any turrets, but basically you need to be nonstop microing units, buildings production, repairing units and harvs management for the first 20 minutes, while also getting lucky (not pulling too many enemies in 1 attack) and you will need to restart many many times and you need top skill level. If you miss one of these, you are out of luck.
Is there any difference between the 3 houses except their unique units like devestator and sonic tank and the airstrike and so on? Cause it seems like ordos unique unit is pretty bad compared to the other houses. No faster harvesting or something?
Omg this brings back so many good memories
This and Dune 2 are on my top 10 list of good old games Thats for sure :-)
did you play it on win7/8 or via virtual machine under winxp ?
win 7 64bit, it lags too much on VM
Is this deji??

According to the game manuel, the regular medium assaults tanks are differents, in first place the sprit isn't the same. In second place, Ordos tank is faster but powerless, harkonnen tank is slower but powerful, and atreides tank is in the middle.
But to be honnest, i have never seen a real difference while playing the game.
Forgive my english
1. I DUNE 2000 for PC elite soldiers but I have not: (Ce type, the special forces soldier Harkonnen and those who throw bombs based birds, and finally, the jeep invisible the Ordos do not have it, I tried to finish the story but did not go out and see that on TH-cam, type in you come out and give them to you at the beginning of the battle. Could you help me please?
Oh, i remember this game. Way harder than Emperor: Battle for Dune. I liked to play as Harkonnen, though i imagined i was the Emperor by picking purple as my color. In fact i went so far as to modify game files to allow building of Imperial palace instead of Harkonnen one. Imagine my joy when i built it the first time! Thing sure looks impressive.
yeah, remove the -f / -g parameters from shortcut or disable v-sync in settings of your graphics card for OpenGL
from all the games i played since i was born,this is the best....so many hours played!
my childhood is right here lol, me and my father used to play this together a lot, good times...
Which capture programm you take for the videos?
I would like do the mercenary, smuggler's and Ixian campaign on hard :D
But i need a good capture programm =/
still better than halo wars would bet.
I used to play the psx version and liked it a lot ,and am thinking of trying the pc version after all this time.
