  • IAP #270 – Summertime, Summertime, Sum-Sum-Summertime

    On this week’s show I started by talking about the possible upcoming Playstation 4 game update for Planetside 2. Andy has shown a date next week but will that mean it will be coming finally? After that I talked about the July 16th PC Game Update which brought back summertime to Auraxis. Then I spent a few minutes going over the new Firestorm implant and the bickering it has started in the community. I finished this week by talking about the image teased by Alan last week. Also, did he say Lodestar?

  • IAP #269 – I Want To Hack

    On this week’s show I started by covering the rather small July 8th game update which fixed a huge problem in the game: the Infinite Repair bug. After that I did a PSA about the current Nvidia graphics drivers and how they are affecting Planetside 2. Next I talked about vehicle hacking and how I. Want. To. Hack. I finished this week by covering Arshee’s Planetside 2 Debate Night stream in all it’s 8+ hour glory.

  • IAP #268 – Repair Bug Fireworks

    On this week’s show I started by covering the ending Summer Event which included Double XP for all and the return of Independence Day themed items to the store. Then I covered the July 1st Hotfix which most importantly brought a band-aid fix to the Voice Comms issue in game. After that I talked about two YouTube videos that did some excellent explaining of things both new and veteran players need to know about: Router Bases and Currencies in Planetside 2.

  • IAP #267 – Something Wicked This Way Comes

    On this week’s show I started by covering the June 24th PC Hotfix which brought a new round of tweaks to the Colossus as well as some miscellaneous bug fixes. After that I made a second plea to rethink the removal of Directive Weapons from ASP unlocks. It’s been two years since ASP was looked at and I think it’s time. I finished this week by talking about the strange occurrences on Esamir and what it might mean for the next game update.

  • IAP #266 – (Said in a Deep Voice) The Punisher

    On this week’s show I spent the whole show talking about the big game update that dropped last week with the Colossus, Facility Modules, the Punisher and much much more. This included the small hotfix that followed. So what are you waiting for? Get your Outfit together and pull a Colossus!

  • IAP #265 – So Long My Dude

    On this week’s show I started by saying goodbye to another Planetside 2 developer, this time Carto. You will be missed my dude. After the sadness I talked about the June 10th and 12th PTS Updates to the Colossus and then did some future speculation based on some datamined information. Disclaimer, just because it’s data mined doesn’t mean it’s true. All that plus some listener e-mail.

  • IAP #264 – The Dingo Ate My Baby

    On this week’s show I started by covering the June 5th PTS update which brought a number of Colossus changes to the PTS along with some Bastion, Punisher and miscellaneous changes. After that I congratulated the 5 finalists in the Community Creator Video Contest. There were five really awesome videos and it was hard to place my final vote. Lastly, I did a deeper dive into the Turrets, Utility, Defensive and Logistic slots of the Colossus. Something that hasn’t been covered much by the community yet.

    On this week’s show I started by covering last Friday’s Dev Live stream which included a new War Correspondent video, Outfit Wars changes, the Colossus and a sneak peak at the next next game update’s new Mission system. After that I talked about the May 29th PTS Update which brought everything to the PTS for testing along with a bunch of other balance changes to weapons, implants and the game itself.

    On this week’s show I started by going over the 17th Anniversary of the Planetside franchise and what great bundle deals you can pick up for a limited time in the Depot. After that I cover Andy’s Reddit post about the status of the next game update, the next Dev Live Stream and how work is coming along on the PS4. Next I talked about Andy’s interview over at wccftech.com and finished this week questioning if the honeymoon phase of the Escalation game update is over and where we need to go next in game.

  • IAP #261 – Liberty or Death

    On this week’s show I started off talking about Wrel’s post about things they’ve learned from the Alpha Cycle 2 qualification phase. I’m most excited about the brackets for larger outfits! Then it was on to Outfit Wars Alpha 2 results with congratulations going out to the winners as well as my stats wrap up just like last time. Unlike last time though, NC was the big winner. After that I talked about how everyone can help fix the in-game Comms issue and finished this week talking about an upcoming PSForever event that vets will want to check out.
