#98: Road to The Division 2 Mar 09, 2018

Show notes

In Episode 98 of SITREP Radio, the lads break the news that you've probably already heard unless you've been living under a rock this past day or two. Division 2 is officially a thing! Massive and a plethora of Ubisoft Studios have been working on the game for a while now (a small team since even before The Division officially launched) and while details are pretty much no existent other than the fact the game is in development, there will be a large Ubisoft presence at E3 in June this year where The Division 2 will be previewed. Until then the community will be left to speculate, and oh boy will we speculate.
During the State of the Game broadcast, a roadmap for Year 3 was also revealed. Updates 1.8.1 (Strawberry) and 1.8.2 (Parsnip) will be with us in April and June respectively, bringing 2 new Global Events as well as 4 missions upgraded for Legendary difficulty.

#97: YEAR 2 ANNIVERSARY GE EVENT ARRIVES Mar 02, 2018

Show notes

Episode 97 of SITREP Radio provides news of the surprise Global Events that have been announced to re-run during each weekend of March. That's right "Outbreak", "Assault", "Strike" and "Ambush" are coming back for 5 days at a time (Thursday through Monday) starting this weekend March 1st - March 5th. So, if you weren't able to play for long during their first instance or perhaps haven't got all the Classified Gear Sets yet, this month is the month for you.
The lads make it a short episode this week so that they can farm the Global Event on PC, having recently migrated over from PS4 meaning for the first time in a little while they don't end the show with questions from their listeners.
Again Apologies for probably the worst episode in the history of the show.

#94: Rogues, Sharts, & Year 3 Discussion Feb 09, 2018

Show notes

Episode 94 of SITREP Radio is here with all the latest news and views from the world of Tom Clancy's The Division.
This week's State of the Game broadcast was once again heavily community focused. However, before jumping into community stuff Petter was joined by Terry and Keith from RedStorm to talk about how they feel the game has been since 1.8 and specifically Rogue 2.0 went live. Petter also found time to talk about the emergency patch that was deployed on Monday to fix the AlphaBridge GearSet glitch, as well as a UI bug.
The lads ended the show with a detailed discussion about how they would like the story of The Division 2 to work, Linear Vs. Open World. There were some very interesting ideas put forward during this segment of the show, so please send plenty of feedback to Mike, Rob, and Luke as to whether you like their ideas and agree with their choices.

#93: Balancing Classifieds Feb 02, 2018

Show notes

For the 93rd time, the lads at SITREP Radio HQ sit down to talk all things Tom Clancy's The Division. Fresh from Global Event: Ambush the lads discuss how kind or evil RNGesus was during their week-long PS4 grind. Spoiler Alert, none of them got all of the 4 new Classified Gearsets completed. Close, but no cigar.
This week's State of the Game broadcast was once again heavily community focused. There were more "Stats with Yannick" which are always fun and interesting. Yet again Petter and Yannick re-iterated their stance of patiently waiting before they make any changes to any of the Classified Gear Sets (nerfs or buffs). Other than that there wasn't really too much news around this week.
As is now becoming a weekly tradition Mike, Rob and Luke end the show with questions from their listeners/Discord community members.

#92: GE: AMBUSH LIVES! Jan 26, 2018

Show notes

Because a Global Event is active this week's Episode (92) of SITREP Radio is a sleep-deprived affair, so be warned.
The lads have been chasing their 6-piece Classified builds of Alpha Bridge, Tacticians Authority, FireCrest and Hunter's Faith now that Ambush is live, but with only Tuesday and Wednesday night under their belts, the progress has been slow thus far. Hopefully, RNGesus blesses the 3 of them in the not-too-distant-future.
This week's State of the Game broadcast was once again heavily community focused. However, there was a "Stats with Yannick" segment, which is always fun. Petter and Yannick also re-iterated their stance of waiting until all 14 Classified Gear Sets have been live in the game for a little while before swinging the nerf hammer or even doing any minor tweaks, which #TeamSITREP think is an excellent approach.
As is the norm nowadays Mike, Rob and Luke close the show out with questions from their listeners/Discord community members.

#91: CACHES, SPECULATION & AN AMBUSH Jan 19, 2018

Show notes

This week is Episode 91 of SITREP Radio, which due to a lack of any meaningful news is a more chilled out, laid back edition of the podcast you all know and love.
It was announced last week, but for anyone that missed it, the 4th Global Event, Ambush, is going live on Tuesday, 23rd January 2018. It will be live for 7 days and will bring the final 4 Classified Gear Sets into the game. These are Alpha Bridge, Tacticians Authority, FireCrest and Hunter's Faith. May RNG be ever in your favor, Agents.
Mike, Rob, and Luke once again close the show out with questions from their listeners/Discord community members.

#90: GE4 AMBUSH IS INBOUND AGENTS Jan 11, 2018

Show notes

Episode 90 of SITREP Radio brings you the latest news from the world of The Division as only Mike, Rob and Luke can. Aside from official news the lads discuss Classified drop rates, the possibility of Classified Caches coming to the game in the future and a glitch that isn't a glitch because no-one can do the glitch. #Glitch.
As is now becoming the norm the lads round-out the show with a few questions from their listeners/community members.
State of the Game is back for the first time in 2018 and brought with it news of Global Event 4 : Ambush going live later this month. Petter, Yannick and somewhere in the background Hamish, discussed why they are not jumping straight into nerfing the Predator, Striker or Nomad gear sets and changes to the format of State of the Game from this point forward.

#89: Happy New Year Agents! Jan 05, 2018

Show notes

SITREP Radio is back to its usual format this week as Mike, Rob and Luke present Episode 89. Fresh from the holiday break the lads are on form with their usual mix of gaming info and in-house banter.
Official news is a little light on the ground on this weeks show so the lads take the opportunity to talk about their favorite 1.8 builds, provide early information on Global Event: 4 "Ambush" and Rob gives a detailed break down of his Classified 6 piece D3-FNC shield-tank build.
The lads round-out the show with a few questions from listeners/community members.
