BobLAN 2026.1 Roundup

Wed, 06 May 2026 08:17:00 +0100

What a quality BobLAN that was! Awesome company, lots of laughs and some brilliant gameplay. Here are some of the highlights:

Teardown - a revelation of a game, total mayhem, definitely one that will return
Battlefield 2042 - some really good games, especially the one that end up with only 6 points between the two teams
Battlefield 6 - this time it was mainly Battle Royale rather than REDSEC but we had some decent games. Third place was our best result!
Counter-Strike 2 - again, some really close games. Great work from Pup to get the server running, and Daz putting the map pack together
Wreckfest - the usual moaning and groaning as people got shunted off the track, but some excellent races. Even though a good number of us had Wreckfest 2, we didn't try it this time
GRID Autosport - the "serious" racing game for a BobLAN made its customary appearance
PupQuiz - moving away from Kahoot to Pup's own quizzing app, this was a brilliant debut. After a trial run and some feedback, the actual PupQuiz ran pretty flawlessly. Amazing work!
Frog in a Box - yup, it really was a frog in the box, much to Themy's surprise!!
Tech - plenty of AI chat. I'm sure this sort of thing will become a regular feature (until it doesn't need us anymore)
Bob Things - Foxy's PC, lightbulbs - the list could go on...
Food - what can I say? Superb food all weekend, especially the breakfasts!

Once again, massive thank you to Bob and Lynda for hosting us all. What you do is quite incredible!

See you all on Thursday 12th November for BobLAN 2026.2

PS5 Price Hike

Sat, 28 Mar 2026 01:06:00 +0000

The BBC is reporting that Sony have increased the price of the PS5 console by an eyewatering £90 - a consequence of current global trading conditions apparently. It was only a matter of time given the steep rise in memory prices due to the AI bubble, so the war in Iran comes at a good time to provide an excuse. Read the full article on BBC News.

CS2 Major Reload Change

Fri, 20 Mar 2026 07:28:00 +0000

Valve have made a major change to how reloading works in CS2. Instead of topping up your ammo on a reload with a small amount from your total, it will instead drop all remaining ammo in your clip. This means that if you reload aa 30 round clip after only firing a couple of rounds, you lose the remaining 20+ rounds! Read more on polygon.com

MW4 Not on GamePass?!

Mon, 02 Mar 2026 15:06:00 +0000

Rumours are doing the rounds hinting that the upcoming Call of Duty Modern Warfare IV - the Infinity Ward title that's supposed to include a new DMZ - will not be on Game Pass from Day 1. The presumed reason is that Microsoft made way less money than they expected following their acquisition of Activision after including all previous Call of Duty games on Game Pass. It is widely believed that the recent Game Pass price hikes were an effort to reclaim some of those losses.

BobLAN 2025.2 Roundup

Tue, 18 Nov 2025 11:41:00 +0000

Despite being a few bodies down, this was another memorable BobLAN. Okay, no kebabs down the stairs, but this one was memorable due to the variety of games we played.

Here are a few highlights:

Battlefield REDSEC - the big newcomer and very popular, although only supporting four players at a time. For a free game it kept us entertained for hours with solid squad play and organisation. I have no doubt this will return
Battlefield 2042 - this game gets some stick in the wider community but it can be fun. Ideally we'd have had more players, but still enjoyable
Counter-Strike 2 - some very close games with the rooms well balanced. Hats off to Pup and Daz for their work on getting the server and stats working!
Rocket League - a short session but enjoyed by all who took part. It had been a while since Rocket League featured, so nice to see it's return
Wreckfest - still a firm favourite, and will be until Wreckfest 2 is available at a reasonable price
GRID Autosport - a surprisingly clean set of races, still a great looking game
The Finals - a short session on Saturday evening, still a great game for team play
ARC Raiders - another newcomer that not everyone has bought yet, but looks amazing

Echoing all the comments in Discord, huge appreciation to Bob and Lynda for hosting and feeding us all again. There were plenty Bob Things for Bob to get on with, not least of which was the attempt to get a projector working for the quiz. Sadly it was not to be.

Thanks also to Pup for his efforts in provisioning a CS2 server for us, and also for producing the PupQuiz every time - a staple part of BobLAN!

The next BobLAN is scheduled for May Day weekend 2026 - see you all there!

BobLAN Underway

Fri, 14 Nov 2025 09:13:00 +0000

Setup day done and dusted, and far from the usual mincing, we had plenty of game time on Battlefield REDSEC - the new free Battle Royale version of Battlefield. Visuals are amazing, as is the gameplay - definitely more playtime on this one over the weekend!
