Episode 176 of SITREP Radio sees the lads take an in-depth look at the plethora of changes that have hit the PTS this past week, and how they feel they will impact the live game.

With Fredrick Thylander on State of the Game this week to talk through the balancing to weapons and gear with Hamish, it was the perfect opportunity for Mike, Rob and Luke to discuss in detail all the tweaks that have been implemented. Rather than the usual nerfs there are a number of sizeable buffs on top of a series of reworks to weapon and gear talents.

As is now tradition the lads end the show with questions from their Discord server and the Twitterverse. As mentioned in the show, the Bullets and Beer Discord link is discord.gg/WUsujr5 and our Patreon link is patreon.com/sitrepradio.

Luke Mallatratt

I've been a gamer ever since I can remember. I started with a Commodore64, then Amiga1200, and various PCs. Consoles I've owned include SNES, Wii, GameCube, Xbox 360 and every version of PlayStation to date. My most played games are Team Fortress Classic, Championship Manager, early COD titles (don't mention Black Ops or MW3!) as well as almost all of the Gran Turismo and GTA series'.
