With the Public Test Servers for update 1.7 now officially closed and the development team working on the final balancing and tweaking pass, the SITREP Radio lads take a quick look at the remaining issues ahead of a potential mid-August release for this patch. Shotguns, RNG, Global Event Caches, and LAG are all discussed and/or ranted about — with several of the topics having featured pretty heavily across the Twitter and Reddit communities already this week.

With no #IFM discussion this week Mike, Rob, and Luke end the show with an extended chat about the games they have been playing this week while spending a bit of time away from The Division. Player Unknown’s Battle Grounds, Gigantic, Bioshock Remastered, LawBreakers, Rainbow Six Siege, and Battlefield 3 are all discussed, with the lads admitting to having a fair amount of fun across their various titles and platforms.

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'.
