This week for Episode #115 Mike, Rob and Luke talk at length about The Dark Zone that the lads know and love, and also speculate as to what The Dark Zone Experience may be like in TCTD2 after Red Storm’s Terry Spier put out a couple of tweets asking about peoples love/hate relationship with The Dark Zone.

Petter and Hamish presented State of the Game episode 101 this week, with Yannick away on his holi-bobs somewhere. There wasn’t any news, as such, but the guys did say that while there definitely will be a new shield launching this month (July), the in-game counter showing that it is launching in a week may not be completely accurate and that agents should keep their eyes peeled for announcements on this soon. There was a brief round up of news from E3 seeing as this was the first SotG since everyone went to LA for the TCTD2 reveal. There was also plenty of community focus this week too.

The lads quickly wrap up the show with a couple of questions from their listeners and discord community.

As mentioned in the show, the Bullets and Beer Discord link is discord.gg/WUsujr5.
