Episode 603: Tarkov's Nikita Just Changed the FPS Genre Twice in One Show
Episode 603
Monday, September 7, 2026 • Duration 02:01:25
The first FPS Games Show happened, and the two biggest things in it both came from the guy who's had Escape from Tarkov in beta for a decade. Nikita opened the whole showcase with Fragmentary Order — sci-fi, Unreal Engine 5, maps four to five times the size of Tarkov's, and a promise that it'll be "more complex, more punishing, more painful."
Then Battlestate turned around and launched a publishing arm for hardcore games nobody else will fund, with devs keeping their full IP. We go deep on both: whether a game more complex than Tarkov is a game anyone actually plays, why Tarkov's bloat (two types of croutons, twenty types of Keter ammo) is the thing a fresh start fixes, and why every extraction shooter after Tarkov has failed for the same reason — they weren't hardcore enough.
Also: Bulkhead built this entire showcase because a trailer slot elsewhere runs $300,000 for 60 seconds, then immediately fumbled their own big Wardogs announcement into a clip contest. Plus Tarkov's PvE player base hitting 50%, and Star Wars Zero Company. Timestamps below. Let us know if Fragmentary Order is going to be a bust or a banger.

Episode 602: The MW4 Beta Broke Us — We're Done With Call of Duty
Episode 602
Monday, August 31, 2026 • Duration 02:16:55
We played the Modern Warfare 4 beta this weekend — including Warzone and the new Zodiac Resurgence map — and it took about fifteen minutes to know it was over. Not "this year is mid" over. Over over.
This is the episode where a podcast that ran on Call of Duty for 600+ episodes says out loud that it's done. Raz makes the case that nothing else in an FPS matters if you can't see or hear the enemy, and everything else — weapon levels, perks, pipe climbing, the spawns everyone's arguing about on X — is fixing a leaky bathtub while the house burns down. Jake breaks down why CoD only takes from him now, why the lobbies are nothing but sweat, and the exact point where min-maxing your controller, your router and your ZIP code stopped being worth it.
Also in this one: the Zodiac verdict (better than Area 99, roughly Haven's Hollow), the weekend 2 nerf pass, the 60% negative Steam reviews, why Warzone was in the beta at all, and a DMZ 2 prediction we're standing behind. Then a palate cleanser — Star Wars Zero Company, permadeath, and a first playthrough Raz completely ruined — plus a brutal Tarkov week, the Tarkov roadmap, GTA 6's Netflix look, and WARDOGS.
Jake wanted it to be good. Raz stopped wanting that years ago. This time they agree.
0:00 - Intro
1:10 - New patrons and the latest bonus episodes
3:26 - Our first patron Discord hangout (and Death by AI)
6:10 - "The MW4 Beta Broke Us"
6:22 - How fast did we know?

10:17 - The raging inferno analogy
14:55 - "Call of Duty is dead"
15:10 - Jake: CoD only takes from me now
20:49 - Everyone is min-maxing (and moving for zero ping)
23:26 - SBMM, the missing casuals, and sweat-only lobbies
26:03 - Splitgate Reloaded and the death of 6v6 arcade shooters
27:40 - Warzone: the audio, the visibility, the haze
30:12 - Rolling the dice on what bullshit you get this year
31:28 - Bring back Caldera — at least it was different
37:28 - The first thing that felt wrong: audio
37:54 - Weekend 2's nerf pass: Tac Sprint, slides, TTK
40:44 - 60% negative Steam reviews and the player drop
41:52 - The Zodiac verdict vs. Area 99 and Haven's Hollow
42:50 - Why was Warzone in the beta at all?
47:16 - No custom loadouts, and the guns aren't fun to shoot
49:07 - "Activision devs do not play their own game"
50:18 - The one dev we ever ran into in Warzone
53:34 - The Quick Fix perk they "fixed" twice
57:07 - "Where does that put us? I give you Zodiac"
59:12 - Skipping a year, or actually done?
1:04:14 - What it would take to get us back
1:07:00 - Call of Duty is your old restaurant job
1:08:08 - "I want everyone that works there to suffer"
1:09:00 - It's a leadership problem — fire Infinity Ward

1:16:06 - The DMZ 2 prediction
1:24:17 - Palate cleanser: Star Wars Zero Company
1:32:45 - Permadeath, injuries, and squad bonds
1:34:36 - "This playthrough is fucked"
1:36:57 - Is it the Star Wars or the game underneath?
1:37:51 - Reviews, performance, and is it worth $50
1:38:50 - Eight classes, Overwatch combos, and base upgrades
1:44:46 - It should have been co-op
1:45:49 - Tarkov: best raid of the week
1:46:41 - The Customs transit raid that actually worked
1:50:02 - Worst raid: baited in the Reserve bunker

Episode 601: WARDOGS Beta vs Modern Warfare 4 Beta — We Played Both
Episode 601
Monday, August 24, 2026 • Duration 01:48:39
Two shooter betas dropped on the same weekend, so we played both and came back with very different verdicts. WARDOGS is Bulkhead's 100-player, three-team tactical shooter with a real money economy — you buy your loadout every respawn, you lose money when you die, and it turns out that changes how a match actually feels. Modern Warfare 4 finally dumps omnimovement, removes bloom from hipfire, and put a campaign mission in the beta for the first time ever.
We get into the WARDOGS recon grind and the 5.56 break-action "sniper" that shouldn't exist, the money system and whether it creates real gear fear, three-team fights and whether they actually matter, spawn vehicles as an infinite money glitch, base building and anti-air, and why there is never — not once, not ever — an unoccupied tower. On the CoD side: how the movement feels without omnimovement, no-bloom hipfire on keyboard and mouse, opening-night demon lobbies, whether Warzone and DMZ2 have a chance, and the annual spawns discourse that needs to die. Jake played both. Raz refused to pre-order. Somehow they still ended up disagreeing.
0:00 - Intro
2:26 - How to even get into these betas
2:50 - "I'm not pre-ordering this pile of shit game"
3:23 - Patreon, the FPS lore bonus episode, and the patron hangout

8:10 - Opening night of the CoD beta was as sweaty as it gets
11:09 - The WARDOGS recon grind is making the game worse
12:22 - The 5.56 break-action "sniper" that should not exist
13:31 - Two gripes: no free look, and you can't reload while sprinting
15:10 - Recon 10, the Mosin, and a $50,000 unlock
16:41 - There's loot on top of the towers — finding an SV-98
17:44 - What surprised us
18:43 - MW4 movement with no omnimovement
21:48 - So what's actually new in MW4? Pipes and underhand grenades
23:21 - Keyboard and mouse, and the no-bloom hipfire
25:26 - Did we quit a session annoyed? Demon lobbies on day one
26:36 - Ground War and looser SBMM next weekend
27:21 - "The MW4 beta had more concurrent players than BO7's peak"
28:20 - Spawn vehicles and the infinite money glitch
30:25 - Learning to fly the helicopter (badly)
32:19 - Chopper runs are the easiest money in the game
33:50 - Base building, FOBs and anti-air
35:26 - Best moment of the weekend: spawn camping a Lone Star vehicle
36:36 - Pro tip: pack a second optic and hot swap
37:58 - Claymores and tower loot
38:53 - Class leveling and why the grind is a good thing
40:06 - Tanks, attack helicopters, and getting strafed off a roof
43:56 - Do three teams actually change anything?
47:36 - The money system: did it change how you played?
52:01 - Gear fear — "I'm here to PvP"
53:59 - We want there to be consequences to dying
56:06 - Bandages, revives, and running out of resources
58:38 - The crane fight and the parachute escape
1:01:31 - There is never an unoccupied tower
1:03:04 - Shotguns, SMGs, and the two-primary backpack build
1:05:42 - Could a kit ever get too expensive to fight over?

Episode 600: Modern Warfare 4 Beta vs WARDOGS — Both Land August 21
Episode 600
Monday, August 17, 2026 • Duration 02:11:57
Episode 600. On August 21st the Modern Warfare 4 early access beta, the WARDOGS closed beta, and Call of Duty NEXT all land on the same day — and the two games are asking for wildly different amounts of money.
We go through everything Activision is cramming into the MW4 beta: a playable campaign mission called Entrenched, six multiplayer maps, the return of Ground War, and a brand new Warzone Resurgence map called Zodiac. Then we put odds on whether any of it actually works over a single weekend. Spoiler: 20%.
Omnimovement is gone. We get into what replaced it, whether removing it was a gameplay decision or a marketing one, and why "you can climb pipes now" is the funniest thing Infinity Ward has ever put in a press release.
On the WARDOGS side: $39.99 Early Access on September 10, over a million Steam wishlists, and a promise of no in-game monetization that came out of one very bad Reddit post. We argue that the promise is a mistake — and that the most consumer-friendly thing a game can do is just be good.
Plus DMZ2, aim assist, and why Infinity Ward is about to be spread way too thin.
0:00 - Intro — 600 episodes
2:09 - Patreon free trials all August
4:02 - Patron hangout: August 28th

25:33 - 19 weapons and a fake pre-order camo
26:59 - "It's gonna be a buggy fucking disaster"
28:51 - Putting the odds at 20%
31:13 - Why I win either way
33:23 - No more omnimovement
33:48 - Climbing pipes is just a ladder
35:58 - Was omnimovement actually better?
40:22 - Mantling as the Warzone middle ground
43:06 - What actually makes you a casual?
51:12 - WARDOGS

53:30 - Three maps at launch? We're skeptical
55:14 - The one thing WARDOGS is missing
56:54 - $39.99 Early Access, September 10

1:19:09 - Is $40 the right price?

Episode 599: WARDOGS Alpha Review: Battlefield But Dying Actually Matters
Episode 599
Monday, August 10, 2026 • Duration 02:21:46
Imagine Battlefield, but dying matters. That's the WARDOGS closed alpha in one sentence — and after a weekend in it, we're calling it the most polished alpha we've ever played.
WARDOGS is Bulkhead and Team17's 100-player tactical shooter: three factions, one randomized control zone, first side to 100 points wins. You start with $10,000, you buy your loadout from in-game vendors, and when you die you lose the gear AND the money you spent on it. The money carries between matches. You can loot the guy you just killed and walk away with a level 30 kit you couldn't buy for another six hours.
In this episode: what the alpha actually plays like, why the economy isn't the gimmick people think it is, how three-way faction warfare changes your strategy, the 256 square kilometre map, destructible towers, the reviving system Battlefield should steal, TTK and gunplay, why an Arma 3 King of the Hill mod is the reason none of this feels half-baked — and the two things that genuinely pissed us off.
Plus the final verdict, the scores, and the one thing that could still ruin this game.
Raz thinks it's a flawless alpha. Jake wants free look. Neither of us can stop playing it.

Episode 598: Saudi Arabia Bought EA — And Gamers Are Mad About a Camera
Episode 598
Monday, August 3, 2026 • Duration 02:07:45
On Tuesday, Electronic Arts stops being a public company. Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, Silver Lake and Jared Kushner's Affinity Partners are closing a $55 billion all-cash buyout — the largest leveraged buyout of a public company in history — and PIF walks away with 93.4% of Madden, FIFA, Apex, The Sims, Battlefield and BioWare.
So we spent half the episode on what that actually means: what going private does to a publisher, the $20 billion in debt that lands on EA itself, whether sports betting is the obvious way to service it, and what happens to queer characters in BioWare games under this ownership. Plus the question nobody answers honestly — is boycotting Madden a real position, or does it just feel good?
Then the other half. Tarkov's first post-launch wipe and the Kord Breach seasons drop August 3, so we get into the state of the game right before it resets. Overwatch Champions Series is live in Paris, and the jetpack cat strat does not translate to Silver. And Baldur's Gate 3's new true third-person camera mod set the internet on fire — someone told modders to be nuked off the face of the earth over an optional camera angle in a single-player game.
Jake wants a normal third-person view in everything. Raz is a Larian hipster who was there before BG3. WARDOGS Alpha hits Friday.

Episode 597: WARDOGS Looks Incredible... Then They Got Banned On Twitch
Episode 597
Monday, July 27, 2026 • Duration 01:45:32
WARDOGS ran its first ever gameplay livestream this week and it went about as well as you'd expect from a studio full of guys in their late twenties: the alpha codes were a QR-code disaster, the stream started two hours late, and it ended with a Twitch ban for throwing a sex toy across the room. And yet — the actual gameplay looked incredible. We break down everything we saw: the enormous map, the three-team control zone loop, the destructible environments, the buy menu, and why Bulkhead's 60 FPS performance floor and "gamers first, devs second" attitude has us more hyped for this game than anything else on the calendar. Plus: is a monthly subscription for better servers and anti-cheat a genuinely good idea or the start of a slippery slope?
Then it's Hell Let Loose: Vietnam, which just opened its first free crossplay playtest on the new Đắk Tô Airfield map — the performance is fixed, the hit reg is fixed, and the map is a massive upgrade over that awful jungle one. And Battlefield 6 Season 4 finally brought naval warfare, Tsuru Reef, and a Top Gun crossover that people are somehow mad about.
We close with what we've actually been playing — Overwatch ranked, Stellaris Nomads, a lot of Tarkov, and one MMO Raz will absolutely keep playing despite telling you not to touch it.
Jake's out here getting one-tapped in Tarkov. Raz is defending a game he just called a pile of dog shit. Business as usual.

Episode 596: MW4 Gameplay Reveal: Kill Block, Recoil Backlash & the DMZ 2 Problem
Episode 596
Monday, July 20, 2026 • Duration 01:46:06
Infinity Ward just had its biggest Modern Warfare 4 reveal week yet — and the community immediately found the flaws. We break down everything shown at the MW4 creator event and Fanatics Fest: the Kill Block modular map with 500+ configurations, the gunplay reveal and the instant visual recoil backlash, VFX masking, no-bloom hipfire, doors, takedowns, proximity chat, and the Aston Martin Dreadnought that quietly confirmed Warzone isn't dead yet.
Then the real question: MW4 looks like MW19 2.0 — but is a well-executed return to form enough in 2026? We get into why the arcade shooter can't hold anyone's attention all year anymore, why the "third game mode" is the entire Call of Duty paradigm now, and why everything — the game, the year, maybe the franchise's momentum — is riding on DMZ2. Plus: why you should treat beta weekend two as the final verdict, because beta tests aren't beta tests anymore.
Also announced: monthly Patreon hangouts are BACK starting in August — hot take open mics, trivia, and more. patreon.com/thedropshot

Episode 595: Bethesda Layoffs, Black Flag Resynced & Tarkov Kord Breach
Episode 595
Monday, July 13, 2026 • Duration 01:52:36
Black Flag Resynced just became the biggest Assassin's Creed launch in history — and it's a remake of a 13-year-old game with mixed Steam reviews. The boys break down the day-one microtransaction backlash, whether the remake gold rush is good for gaming, and which classics deserve the full ground-up treatment next.
Then it gets heavier: Microsoft's July layoff wave hit Bethesda and ZeniMax hard, and Raz makes the case that AI is a top-three reason why. Plus the office memorial HR forced down, 14 layers of management, and why Elder Scrolls 6 should have shipped a decade ago. Also on the docket: Doom: The Dark Ages – Revelations DLC and its Metroidvania-inspired level design, Stop Killing Games taking Ls in the EU and California (and the list of "dying" games nobody has ever heard of), the full corrected rundown of Tarkov's Kord Breach Season 1 modifiers, and the BO2 remaster shipping with bugs that were patched a decade ago. One host thinks the ownership question matters. The other thinks the market already answered it. You know how this goes.

Episode 594: The Steam Machine Is Weaker Than a PS5 (And Costs 2x)
Episode 594
Monday, July 6, 2026 • Duration 01:46:40
Valve's Steam Machine reviews are in — and the verdict is brutal: by most measures it's slightly less powerful than a base PS5 while costing more than double. We break down the benchmarks, why Valve went semi-custom on the chips, and whether "access to the entire Steam library" is worth the price of admission. Before that, we go deep on Escape from Tarkov's first-ever season, Cord Breach — the new seasonal character system, the Path of Exile-style trait modifiers, the Kappa protocol, and whether this shakes up the Tarkov loop for good. Then it's War Dogs: the alpha impressions are rolling in, the hype is real, and the only "complaints" are people mad about camping in a large-scale warfare game.
Plus: Sony is killing physical disc production for new PlayStation games in 2028 — do you even own your games anymore? And one last Call of Duty story from our CoD heritage: Warzone's cheater problem has never been worse, to the point streamers are teaming up mid-match just to survive. Jake sees the upside, Raz calls it like he sees it.
