Got to be honest... I am an old skool table top Battletech guy. I tried MW Online, but it just didn't seem "right" somehow. Then I got hooked on MW5 thanks to these videos... now I'm heavily invested in keeping my merc company alive and growing..
That’s cool! Have you played the older MechWarrior games? And do you enjoy the video games more than the tabletop or hard to pick? They both have their merits I find haha
@@brysonkuervers2570 I've played all the video games... my best memories were from MW2 when they finally updated to enable LAN games.... but I miss playing the tabletop.
MWO is basically "Fortnite", but with bigger guns. It's pretty much Solaris matches. Those battle royale games need to die, and make room for real games.
I never finish watching any of your videos, they always hype me up for mech warrior, so I've got you on in the background as I play my solo each time one of your videos comes out! lol
22:15 "We gonna keep this build in mind" (Hint: Battlefield repair), Baradul quits out of the Loadout menu ... to expensive. Well, just saying that the [SAVE LOADOUT] button would've kept the build in mind. In the mind of the game:P Anyways, thanks for the entertaining video:)
With Mechwarrior 5 Marauders I like to put 4 Large Lasers in the arms, then add either an AC 2 or AC 5 & jump jets once I get an XL Engine for it, as well as all the electronics I can cram in. It is a headshot machine with all those large lasers, and chain fire is great for destroying bases.
WOOHOO: Watch out for those cantina missions. I took one and went to a planet to kill a mech and in the mix was a MAD V MDV-5B. got the salvage and that baby is mine. I only require 3 parts and got 4. Took the place of my MAD-IIC-2X with 11 laser hardpoints. Between lasers and mrm and lrm, I currently have 271 alpha. Happy camper. Had no idea there were 130 ton super heavy mechs in the game
Good Inner Sphere Orion builds usually comprise of two big LRM launchers with some medium or small lasers and an Autocannon for the DPS. That's how I have my Christmas patterned Orion IIC in MWO and I like the build quite a lot. 🙂 Well, the IIC variant is a (C) 'mech but you can get an Inner Sphere version to more or less the same configuration.
Try to find a ON1-M in the late game. It has three missile hardpoints; one has a NARC in it but you can use it for any missile. It's a master brawler with 3 SRM6s and your other weapons. You get one as a reward for the Rasalhague mini-quest "Operation Onoda" at Rep 9 if you have the Kestrel DLC.
Deadass just found one myself and set mine up exactly the same way, got 2 rank 4 10x's and just made the switch and was shocked, such a good brawler in my opinion.
12:21 Aye, the kind of lunch break where they were watching dirty things on their monitors, and when you captured that area, their internet privileges got turned off 🙃😆😝😅
Finished gathering enough Intel for the Bounty Hunter and he offered me a quest. It went how you think it went. I got the MAD-BH hero mech. Good but I expected better.
SPOILER? Aaaah, I understand! Because you are mad and disappointed. That, of course, excuses anything and everything! I hope you get over this one day.
Most gases (and especially the hot ones) are very intransparent for thermal radiation of the spectrum. That also (by nature) resembles a delayed picture of the present, meaning you see always what was there in the past. Not a good idea for fast moving killing machines and an environment with VTOLs and Rockets flying left and right, don't you think? Well just in theory(by which I meant THE PRACTICE here, how strange?! **g** ), but if it is good for Hollywood, it is also good for game immersion:)
If it makes the game “too easy”, put the self repair on the Jenner. Also, is it a coincidence that the mercs came in right after you gutted that skyscraper? They said they were hired because you were doing too much damage.
Getting there Baradul, tho if you like black knights, might want to keep an eye out for the Conquistador BLK-OA, B, C, D, and the BLK-MHL Macuahuitl Hero mechs.
Or you set the YAML Ammo setting to 2.0. Some call that quality of life. Others call it cheating. I call it a effing game. No, just to mention the alternatives. There is not only one. Including Patchwork, Armor, Structure, Clan Weapon to save tonnage or externalizing heat-generation/dissipation via upgrades to make space this way. Or even going down a weapon category or dropping a weapon. Recognizing that 5% more or less fire-power isn't even a fraction of a shot f.e. with four in charges fired weapons ... is not exactly one of the strengths of us humans (Because humans are dumb! Dumb and greedy, hehehe). Have a gg Mechwarrior Covah Redro!:)
You can make a quick bit of extra cash by taking Eisenfaust-J parts as salvage. They cost 0 picks, and if you kill a ton of them on the battlefield, you can build and sell them for around 2 million C-bills per mech. They're useless in combat, with very poor visibility in the cockpit.
From the page: Settings, Harjel Properties selfRepairArmor, selfRepairStructure, selfRepairDuration, selfRepairInterval, selfRepairScope ... which all of them you can CHANGE (You know, computers?). So that "nerfed" statement is a bold claim if you look at it my and the developers way and how the settings systems works, don't you think? Anyways it doesn't matter. Your opinion is as good as mine. Have a gg Mechwarrior Hero_Swe!:)
@@dieSpinnt yes. Obviously any power user can change the mod values back to how they used to be. I personally changed the mobility gyro to give it's old 10% bonus instead of 5. That's not who I'm generally speaking for when I say that something that used to be very strong isn't anymore. The comment was more for people and Baradul when he said that harjel makes the game very easy, I'd say they are a necessity with coyotes endgame missions. I don't think RUclips would censor GitHub, that doesn't make any sense.
How are you share costs so low for a whole mech? My share costs are double that for a whole build. IS there a mod that you can get to lower the share cost?
You have to set the salvage option in the yaml mod to v2 you probably have it on v1 by default but it means you can’t salvage entire mechs anymore only parts of them taking anywhere from 3 to 5 to build one
TBH with the newest expansion I've used infiltration as a c-bill gathering tool for my company. I can either do a solo FS-A or...if I decide to be evil an SP Small/Flamer loaded Firestarter, the Hero Raven, Hero Spider, and a Hero Firestarter and watch them melt everything 1 group at a time. But still I wish the Xbox let us mod the game like PC does
Hello Baradul, i have a high respect level of play mechwarrior today. i am 1 of first online mechwarriors of back in time battlemasters.(mechwarrior 3 i think?). do we have a mechwarrior 6 release this year(2023)?
12:20 - that seems to be a common theme in mechwarrior 5. No explanation, no logic, no instructions. Doesnt help that the characters in this game have the depth and personality of a used sock either. Like, when I started this game a little while ago now i was stuck in the tutorial for like 25 minutes because the game told me to "repair your mech" and apparently theres more ways to queue a repair order and the game only accepts one of them. HOW ABOUT TELLING ME, its a goddamn tutorial! As someone who grew up with MW3 and MW4 I really want to like MW5, but the game makes it very difficult for me. Like when I finally started my first mission and im given a 25T mech with like 2 tiny lasers with no range and they just... throw 35 tanks, 20 helicopters, 3 Igors and a light mech at me. How is a new player who havent touched a MW game in over a decade supposed to deal with that? (edit: it was supposedly difficulty 5 and unskippable) By mission 2 I just turned on cheats thinking its just a rough curve at the start, ill help myself get started. By mission 3 I was alone in my tiny mech against a lance of medium mechs in a mission to defend a base so i kept losing even with no heat, unlimited health and unlimited ammo. Just couldnt take them down faster than they took down my base. And this is still in the starting area, its still on rails. Theres no equipment to refit, you can only proceed with what the game tells you to etc. So I gave up.
Your tunnel vision is leading to poor decisions. You also need to look around more. You missed several caches in the first mission. Walked right past them. Take a second to scan area in visible spectrum to see beacons.

There are two Jaeger's with the Focus Fire quirk that gives you a %20 rate of fire increase to RAC's. It's fantastically good.

Excited for the Orion. Have kind of a spot for them. I only have vanilla but the va with twin srm4 plus lbx scatter

the most important thing I have learned from watching your videos is to horde double bins of all types of Amo.

Modern Infrared sensors can usually calibrate themselves for the ambient temperature, so you might not just see all white in a really hot environment.
Most gases (and especially the hot ones) are very intransparent for thermal radiation of the spectrum. That also (by nature) resembles a delayed picture of the present, meaning you see always what was there in the past. Not a good idea for fast moving killing machines and an environment with VTOLs and Rockets flying left and right, don't you think?

Why keep 36 pts in hear as armour? Drop head to 25 ish to keep legs high. (32:38)
You could probably dump some of the cooling in the Marauder for more ammo for the Chem Laser setup.
Or you set the YAML Ammo setting to 2.0. Some call that quality of life. Others call it cheating. I call it a effing game.

Good run so far, i would equip the jaegermech with 4 lbx 5.
dumb question but are u running any other mod besides those in your collection? cause im missing the duel missions and the RAC in my playthrough. D:
im guessing the bounty hunter works for the phone company

Harjel has been severely nerfed since I last played with it. It even nerfed the Black Carapace as well.

I like Harjel. Its black carapace that is OP. Harjel while strong requires quite a bit of weight and slots.

Baradul have you got a list of all your mods? My interface runs so poorly, I’m convinced it’s the addons causing it…
Hello Baradul, i have a high respect level of play mechwarrior today. i am 1 of first online mechwarriors of back in time battlemasters.(mechwarrior 3 i think?). do we have a mechwarrior 6 release this year(2023)?
