Mechwarrior needs to be a combined arms game(yes I love Living Legends). Mech on mech action is just not fun enough on its own here, the group-tactical nature of the series demands it(as opposed to Armored Core solo approach). At least there will be a story this time around and since DUNC is all the hype right now maybe they'll do space opera some justice for once.

Jaguars calling Kuritans fascists, talk about pot calling kettle black.

It's extremely weird honestly, first because the Jags don't care about political ideologies (bar Clan ones, of course) and because as clan Nigger Pitbull they were written as tyrannical as they could (caste system bad even for Clan standards, loot economy, brutal politics). I mean, the ending of the Invasion is the lily-white Davion Man decapitating with a katana the Angry Black Man Khan of the Jags after humiliating him.

Still, a good pick for a campaign, it's not the Wolves at least.

Saw that later. Apparently the AI still does the thing where it absolutely has to be in engagement range of ALL weapons, even fucking small lasers, at all times.

Fucking laffo, the game is registered as MW5 Mercenaries in Discord instead of Clans.
That's the level of quality I can expect huh

E: MASSIVE texture pop-in right from the start. Worse than in Mercs. Incredible.

This is the UI at 1440p:

Aaaaaand they immediately got the dialogue wrong. Clanners using contractions.

Looks like ass, runs like ass. It's trash, worse than Mercs.

i guess you just ignored all of the dialogue directly addressing the trainee who repeatedly used contractions.
