Battlemech Primer Episode 26: The Cyclops
Rusty Bollocks is notorious for saying stupid shit in defense of his company's garbage games.
I remember the bait and switch they pulled. I refunded, and picked the game up years later on GoG at a steep discount.
Need company if not companies to make new Battletech and Mechwarrior games
This had the quality of a decent mod, but not a DLC. PGI wtf
Literally have been complaining about PGI for 15 years now and unlike some of the diehards I just completely quit all of their products 10 years ago. I really can't recommend anybody support this company they are worse than they appear, I've had enough conversations with people who either worked there or are tangentially related to know it is really bad
I have been voting with my wallet. I stopped after Krestels and have not looked back. Same thing with Destiny 2 didn't buy Final Shape due paying to much money for crappie content and woke agenda.
LOL I bet the 10 down votes are PGI devs!
Seems the IP brings out the worst in companies. MS, Catalyst, PGI, ect.... $$$ at our expense and love for Battletech.
This video is basicly like a Trump speech. It could have been 5 minutes with useful information but it became 37 min with a big an emotional rant.....
I'll take that as a compliment
I LOVE MODERN GAMING I LOVE MODERN GAMING
Its sad when the Mods are better than the official DLCs(speaking of MechWarrior 5, I'm sure it'll be the same for Clans too)
So pgi doing pgi things.
I can't believe they sold Invasion skins, when the fucking game is during the invasion.
Remember, kids: "Don't feed the Piggy." Classic PGI cope. Modders gonna have to clean up the pigsty (shout-out to the Wolves Mechassault revival project and YAML Classics mod for Mercs).
On EGS it costs 18 Euro, they have 20% discount so the price is less than 15 Euro. I had some EGS coupons so the DLC costed me 12 Euro. Reasonable price.
What would be your dream Battletech game?
If this DLC ISN'T FREE I'm giving up on pirahna
So, if it was designed and implimented, and made ready to release inside a month... how much work went into it? How much testing? Yeah...
You took the craziest clan and made them shit.
The enshittification of everything continues...
I liked the story in mw5c better than in mw5. I will not buy this DLC
Wait isnt this also DLC for what is more or less a standalone X-pack?
I won't be playing MW5 Clans, I have no interest in clan smoked jaguar.
As a fan, I bought it because I want more Mechwarrior stuff. I haven't played it much yet but I'm sure i'll be having fun with it. Loved the base game. Horde mode was something a lot of people were asking for.
whooo?
I bought it no problem but truely should have just been in the base game. I really want to be able to restart my campaign without having to unlock everything I've already unlocked.
It would have been better if they would have just let us be a merc company during the clan invasion
That fighting with COMSTAR with COMGUARD.
Blake's beard... This is bullshit. MW5:Mercs only got great thanks to mods. Clans is pumping out "content" that came prepackaged with Mercs and something that a modder probably can do with a weeks worth of work. The only way I am going to by Clans at this point is when they package everything, collectors edition+ ALL dlc for like 25€. Not a dime more. The last piece of content I'm getting from them is the last mercs dlc. And then I will wait.
May I make a suggestion? Yaaarrrr, matey.
Online multi-player. Whats that with this franchise. Online player base... good luck with there code send out bit to link up with friends. Until this game has Online match making you bought this game just like me. For the story! MMO MechWarrior is what we MechWarrior fans want. Why is MWO the only match making mechwarrior game. Seems to me its all part of a money scheme to keep MWO relevant. Piranha needs to make the MechWarrior MMO game. What a joke!
eh, i fitgirl'd mw5 mercs until everything was released and then cdkey'd it on the cheap, i'll be doing the same with clans.
Me: Oh neat, they added some non campaign modes! Wait... 20 dollars?
Excellent episode Mage. Eagerly looking for the next episodes + wondering how much will change compared to the first version. 😮
To be fair, the including of Duncan Fisher (or more specifically, his voice actor) was the biggest reason I did NOT buy that DLC.
Yeah, guy's an a-hole. I haven't forgotten how he treated George. Turns out he wasn't really playing a character. That's just who he is.
That's a bit ironic but ok
Wait, what happened with him?
@@superknight9152 He sided with the psycho stalker that got George fired.
@@superknight9152 If I'm remembering correctly, when Pardoe got dropped by cgl george ledoux took to twitter to bad mouth Pardoe. I can't remember with it was just interpersonal stuff, or if ledouche went after Pardoe for politics.
current day video game companies, and how much parasitic they can they get away with
Putting the Annihilator in E, which carried me from Tier 4 to Tier 1 in MWO alone by itself is already getting me salty ^^ ...easiest personal S tier for me
It feels like the old cutting content from the main game and selling it to you for a premium as DLC. The only way to save MW5C is going to be mods and even then, mods won't fix story/acting.
To this day I only have MW5:Mercs base game. (no dlc) I loved MW4 and MW4Mercs and still do even though I don't have the mech packs for it. This is appalling.
Dod not buy the DLC because there is no Kodiak.
I didn't care about clans then was hyped but didn't buy because I don't buy anything week one anymore and then I was disappointed but glad I did spend a dime. Another developer down the corporate drain. I'll probably have to give my money go GGG instead if poe 2 early access launches and is any good.
I admit I am part of the problem in this particular case. I have a huge soft spot for Battletech so when I heard that they were bringing MW5 Mercs to Xbox, I immediately jumped on it. And when MW5 Clans was announced I got lost in the hype and bought that too without looking for the reviews. And that was dumb of me. I really enjoyed MW5 and a large part of it was because I could finally play a MechWarrior game on Xbox and with my friends. And that blinded me to the issues. And the part that sucks the most is that Piranha (and most other studios) are likely taking advantage of mine and other's excitement for these games. And that just sucks. I miss the halcyon days of the golden age of gaming. Where most of not all games were released polished and completed and not overpriced segmented garbage. DLC should be an addition or dare I say, expansion of the original game. Not a pay wall patch or bandaid to an incomplete or broken game.
You should make a video about mechwarrior online
I would love to see it , I want to enjoy the game at times, but damn they just have no passion for the game to grow let alone make it in a new engine, and expand the game. But I don't expect much, learned that early when my old clan SWOL surrounded terra and allow us to fight for terra during that season of Community Warfare.
@2awsommee4U I'm shocked by how few modes there are. Every game is 12 vs 12. each game results in everyone going to the same points on the map in a murder ball. I haven't tried faction play, but I have that few play it. There should be way more maps, different team sizes, the ability to choose your mech based on the map, more modes with drop decks, etc. The monetization is extremely out of control. Surrounding terra sounds really cool. Yeah, they really should redo the whole game in their new engine and add a bunch of stuff. Make it cost money upfront instead of the free to play while having to spend $5 for a single color to customize your mechs with. There is also the balancing problems they don't address.
@@billjosh3819 The game used to have alot more game modes but people rather play skirmish 99% of the time, and anything else that isn't skirmish isn't popular. The game would benefit it alot if the devs actually put effort into the game, it had alot of potential, but I doubt it. The game will always be half backed, but the devs only see a cash cow from the small pops to fund their single player games which is mid at best, and the cauldron is good at balancing the game even tho they need to buff lockon weapons a bit so they're not dead weight in higher tiers and not op in lower tiers
@2awsommee4U that's too bad that's it's the players' fault for fewer game modes. It's a very frustrating situation.
First, they launch the game The gameplay is good, but they’re lacking an I would like more Omni max
I love it when companies rip stuff out of the main game to sell it to you for 20 bucks. For the foreseeable future the MW Games will remain dead
I still play MW Black Knight, I have the newest MW5 - I have probably less then 30 hours in it. I am a BT fan from the beginning. TT from the original release, then MechCommander, MechCommander 2, MW I-IV, and MW LL, I have started teaching my daughter (just turned six) BT about 8 months ago through BTA (honestly one of my all time favorite programs) She loves stompy robots, has declared herself a spheroid and I will be starting her on TT soon. We will be starting back in second or third succession war with the original mechs I used - from the original rule book. we will slowly add more tech and the like as she gets it down. She is six and we will start with basic stripped down wasps to just a med laser to teach movement and basics, then add in more and more tech and mechs. She loves throwing hands in BTA and cannot wait to do it on the tt. Luckily for me, I am poor and cannot afford to buy the NGT and generally get games years after their release. the BT 2018 game, yes I backed it prerelease, it was to me what I wanted in a BT game, then BTA and Rogue Tech came out and they filled in the gaps I needed filled in. I really wish they would have done a Succession War DLC or Mod or Original Star League as I am a grognard. But BT 2018 paid off. Hell I could not even open BT 2018 for over 3 years after release as I did not have a system that could run it. I supported it as I had faith. .... rant over....
Very cool comment. Thanks for writing all this out. I enjoyed reading it.
I purchased the collectors edition or whatever it's called for not just one but two of my sons. I figured something this standard would be a free update included with that & not some DLC behind a pay wall!
you know that you cant view the extra content outside of the game right?
Fool me twice...
Fully Subbed and haven't got a channel notification in months... Glad I have a backlog to watch...
I've personally tried to play MW5 Mercs, but every single time I try to customize my Joystick + Throttle the damn game constantly drifts to the left. No way to really fix it, it's either "Drift slightly," or "Drift like its Initial D." Combined with the BS behind both it and Clans, I'm pretty much done with Piranha. I NEED Zipper Interactive back.
Im hoping 1 to 5 with ai is the group size for pvp because star vs star sounds cool but if this is mechassault pvp itll be fun but its not as arcade fun as mechassault
If it wasn't for mods, I wouldn't have played so much MW5 Mercs. I have roughly the same amount of time as you do. I haven't even finished MW5 Clans. We all really want to like these games. Searching for the kernel of good. It's tiring doing that for many modern games now.
This is why Living Legends is my favorite MechWarrior game.
AHMEN Chummer!!! Living Legends for the WIN!!!
It’s just sucks that it is always dead.
@@ResetIncoming You got full servers on the weekends. I've been playing it since 2017 and built my gaming setup around the game at over 10 thousand dollars so I've gotten very invested in it.
@@TheStrayHALOMAN I tried playing on the weekends and the most I saw was around 5 to 7 players in one server. I gave it a fighting chance by trying for over a month but ultimately deleted the install because it was dead. I’m not against the game but in reality, nobody plays it but the same dedicated 20 active people in the discord. The game is just too old and dated looking to attract new players. Hopefully MW LL 2 will attract more players once that it is developed and released.
@@ResetIncoming LL2 was cancelled for now due to lack of developers.
PGI is up there with EA and Ubi regarding their handling of good frenchises... Milk it till you break it, but the BT community is not that stupid as they think... PGI is the most mediocre game dev that you could've had for this project. This DLC is absolutely dogs**t. I have a deeo loathing for them since MWO. Eff them
So they are adding a horde mode to a game where half the missions are already horde mode? Oh, but it's multiplayer now. 😆
