Episode 16: BETA Impressions

[Boomslangg]

In episode 16 we review new information about the season pass, give our impressions of the Dark Zone after extensively going rogue for "research", and review what we loved and would like to see improvements on from the beta.  Doom discusses a bit of history about the M44, and we talk about our real life and in game experiences with it. Strap in for another episode of Rogue Agent Radio while we finally get some sleep!

Great episode guys. Spot on with your impressions of the beta. 

Would love a get out of town mode for the survival content that you talked about. Where you have to retreat out of a section of midtown because of a big push back by the main bad guy of that area. Just like a normal mission but backwards, enemies coming from all areas so you just cant sprint away.

Yeah, I've heard the same thing. I downloaded that app when we started recording, then deleted it a week later and now just use the website. Can't believe it's still janky! 

And thanks for the kind words!

Great stuff as always guys!. Over the last few weeks I listened to every episode starting with the first one and finally caught up just before the Beta. Definitely looking forward to your future episodes, tweets, and YouTube content. I am watching The Division Podcast w/ Hamish Bode and your appearance earlier this week as I type this post

You got a subscriber in me... Cheers!

Thanks, guys! I'm really glad that everyone is enjoying the show!

Love that Dave mentioned his kids climbing all over him and wanting to watch paw patrol. I feel you man, the pup fever is real in my home as well! Great episode guys.

Had to do the same several weeks ago. After that it has worked well. I found the issues occurred when I did not download an episode and tried streaming it. Hope that helps.

Glad everyone enjoyed this episode! Next episode should help people start preparing which unlocks to go for first  

 

[Devindad53]

Great show! I've been listening since the beginning.

 

[spainish]

What unlocks to go for first will be interesting, I guess it will all henge on the first missions you complete. Also I'm guessing the Dark Zone will be locked at first, otherwise what would prevent us from going in and grabbing gear... oh wait, hard enemies.

Looking forward to your next podcast! I didn't got the chance to play the Beta but being following your info and MarcoStyle youtube videos to get the feel of it.

I'm also a dad here with three on our (wife is a gamer too) watch.

Being hard to find a cool adult community to play with online games so I've being hiding in shadow of Mordor and Metal Gear Online sometimes. I'm sold in The Division so please talk about how to get in this special community on one of your podcasts (if it did happen point me which one). If there is a plan to gather people together under one "flag / clan" or something.

Great work!

Is this the agent trust issues you always talk about?

 

[FlannelGuy]

Awesome episode!!!! Loved the "Run Forrest Run" technique in the dark zone for single agent extraction. Look forward to more great episodes and gaming guys.
