Fozzie == Raivi?? - Faith in CCP restored. Good episode.

Also I just realized I was vaguely mentioned in the last episode. I feel like there definitely could have been some corrections made there Cool

Yeah wow. This was a nice surprise! And no offense to anyone but let's hope he's the only commentator secretly a CCP employee Big smile

Great episode.

ahhhhh you didnt talk about the caracal at all


Somehow we really didn't spend as much time on details with the cruisers as I intended to. The good news is that I think Fozzie will be posting specifics in the forums before too too long (edit: I hope).


Yep, was sort of looking forward to hearing from him about the caracal throughout the PC though :P

First up, Fozzie = Raivi makes me super confident in the changes coming.

Second and much more importantly - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgZIYdFmZqc

Good bye to the best podcast in new eden. You guys did an amazing job and had such an awesome impact on the way people thought about solo, myself included. I certainly wouldn't be enjoying playing as much if this podcast hadn't encouraged me to start soloing. I don't get the same pure hit of adrenaline from anything else like I do from solo. Thank you both so much. Hopefully I will see you out there.

I know this isn't the podcast, but special thank you to kil2 for your map video. I always point our new guys to it and it's the single most useful video I've seen.


Enjoy your rest, guys. You've earned it.

The fact that even somer.blink sponsorship cant keep competent smallscale pvpers to consistently go out solo says a lot about the state of solopvp in this game What?

Thanks a lot for the podcast guys, hope you'll be back at least playing in some foreseeable future.

episode 20 was the last of SEASON 1 (hopefully!)

the episode itself was great. CCP Fonzy / Raivi just knows so well what he is talking about; he is a great asset to the CCP team.

This podcast has given me so much. The formula you guys are using is just great entertainment and very informative.

Thank you Kil2 & Kovorix,

will keep an eye out for "SEASON 2" kickoff

Nice episode. Raivi sounds like he has some good ideas for the future of the game and I am glad to hear he has been reminding other CCP staff that soloers still exist!

I was disappointed though to hear that they still talk about tweaking when referring to future changes to ECM, rather than taking the reins and replacing it with something better.

Thanks for 20 interesting and informative episodes. I hope to see you guys back for season 2 in not too long :)

I agree with you here. Its the one thing I find myself really disagreeing with Raivi about. The entire mechanic needs an overhaul so that after its changed its actually fun. I think CCP will definitely get around to nerfing it, which is better than nothing, but it would be nice if ewar in general could be a fun part of the game.

To the rest - Thanks a lot for the support, I hope we get back for more episodes also =)

And also, we aren't slowing down because of the pvp climate, I think me and Kovorix both think the solo and small gang climate is more healthy now than it has been for a lot of Eve's history (with the small exception of ASBs atm). We are just busy in the real world.

Thank you Kil2 & Kovorix. I'm enjoying my small gang and solo flying so much more after realizing what is possible listening to your podcasts and watching your videos. I'll be looking forward to series 2!

Well, thanks for series 1 of BSB, here's to hoping that a series 2 shows up at some point in the future!

I've got to say the highlight for me was the fight round table; one of the most interesting podcast episodes I've listened to from any podcast.
