Dune: Awakening temporarily disable Steam home sharing feature to resolve bugs

　　"Dune: Awakening" has begun to show results in the MMO field, but like most multiplayer games, there are problems with cheating and bad players. To ensure a fair experience, developer Funcom announced that Steam home sharing feature has been disabled to resolve the serious bugs it causes. Although hundreds of players have been banned and illegal resources have been cleared, Funcom believes that the feature needs to be disabled first to completely fix the bug.

The overall score of the game Steam remains 75% "mostly positive", but the positive review rate in the past 30 days has dropped to 63%, and players' dissatisfaction with cheating and bugs continues to intensify. Although the recent hot patches have been used to fix bugs such as item copying and ban cheaters, banning family sharing this time is a more radical measure.

Funcom explained in the announcement that the home sharing function was abused, so it was temporarily disabled and apologized to the legal user, and the goal was to restore the function within the year. The team has dealt with hundreds of illegal players and illegal resources, and has begun to fix other cheating-related issues, and plans to implement them through subsequent patches. As the rectification advances, the official expects that players will complain less and scores will rebound, and the family will be shared in the future.
