@@joe5hm03 I find it a bit odd that there's three versions of this song. This version, which I don't believe is played in the game officially. Then there's the menu version which is a bit shorter and has a higher pitch to it. Then in the base game (without the Inner Sphere DLC), there's a couple chords of this song that are melancholy.
Snatched this on Steam on the black Friday sales and dear lord i am hooked. Haven't touched the franchise since the glory days of Mechwattior 3 and this really hits the spot
no MWO does, it's called more customisability and one time purchases (honestly it fees good to not have to panic about deductions for dying like with every other game of its type)
Agree'd OP. Sure I could nitpick some things I wish where there. 3 is where I was introduced, and I miss some if its features. But my GOD this is the still fun AND beautiful. And some mods are there to fix some aspects. PLUS ITS THE ONLY TITLE SINCE HBS's BATTLETECH TO DO MELEE IN ANY FORM!
Shame the individual songs I used to listen to got pulled down. Way to go licence holders... make people dislike you thus limiting your base. This is song 25: Mercenary
Closest movie we got is Robot Jox. Which funny enough was written partly by a guy who was involved with the Battletech novels, especially around the time of the Clan Invasion. So you'll see some similarities between Robot Jox and Battletech.
@@Ratkill9000 I just looked it up; didn't even know this existed. Also, I'd say Pacific Rim is pretty close too. Although the robots in Robot Jox resemble Battletech more.
Hmm... CU on a Clint (CLNT-2-3T) as it walks through a desert towards the middle of a city. Several Urbanmechs peak out around buildings and retreat again. A lone Atlas with a black paint pattern and a painted on mustache turns to greet the Clint. “You know this town ain’t big enough for the two of us.” “Go ahead. Make my day.” “Whaddya say, boy, a draw?” CU Clint cockpit. Pilot squints. CU finger on trigger. Atlas: “DRAW!” Clint raises AC5 and a stream of bullets spray the Atlas’ eye. Atlas falls.
The actual menu song is a different version of this song. True on both the Steam and Epic version (can't confirm on the Xbox). Unless there's another version you are referring to.
What a theme to introduce you back to piloting a battlemech
Battlemech. Battletech is the overarching franchise.
@@Ratkill9000 typo i meant Battlemech goddammit. Thank you
Just bought this game on steam and man does this song hype you up to play or what?

@@Ratkill9000 honestly, I have trouble telling the difference between versions.

Started playing 2 years ago. I've had 900 hours of play time already lol. I just discovered the mods and it really brings more life to the game!
This theme plays.
*Jaime wolf:* You can be my Lance mate anytime
*Me:* BS, you can be mine.
Everyone says it's bad, but I loved driving my Warhammer again! MWO got nothing.

@@osmacar5331 Nah. MWO is shit. MW5 is true Mechwarrior.
King Crab life!! 🔥
@@NorthernNorthdude91749 2 weeks, and I've already acclaimed 60 hours on MW5, best one since MW2, Still play that too for nostalgia purposes.

This needs to be on a 10 hour loop
Underated theme for an underated game.
Shame the individual songs I used to listen to got pulled down. Way to go licence holders... make people dislike you thus limiting your base.
This is song 25: Mercenary
I'm surprised no one has the guitar or bass tabs anywhere for this.
yeah just check the tabs for short change hero its a dub
They need to make movie or series set in this universe and play this music during battle scenes.

Closest is Battletech the animated series from the 90s. The only worry about a modern Battletech show is the woke marxist agenda they'd put in it
Even so they should make toys of them

FOUR Nightstars here. Come and fuck with me. I dare you!
The only thing I want more than four Nightstars is one Fafnir.
Bring it!
This is definitely a real THEME for MechWarrior veterans after 20 years of wait.
This is my favorite mechwarrior theme
This is such a good theme great to get back into mechwarrior
Fuck yeah
Mw2 back in school sounded like that...
Good times.
We will beat the Clanners with this! 🤩
Small request: If anyone out there plays MWO and does modding, can you add this to the music sound pack? Thanks :D
I thought the same thing when I first heard this. Would be cool if the regular mechlab music alternated with this one
no
Surprisingly slaps.
Start the game. Listen the menu song... I am ready to piss metal.
Guitar and bass tabs please.
Hellyeah! Now THIS is Western MechWarrior, heroically defined!

I like this part 1:55
A meh game, but a kickass theme.
gets a lot better with Mods :)
You should check it out now with the DLC. Campaign got a huge revamp.
One reason i ended up getting it
A middling game with an absolutely fire soundtrack.
FUCK YEAH!
This is just like..four base guitars
Hey, as someone who loves base, that's pretty cool
That makes it a Lance of Guitars
Why does the Steam release have this track butchered in a way that makes your ears bleed through sheer repetitiveness?
PGI being salty nobody bought the game as a EPIC exclusive.

@@Ratkill9000 Im playing the XBOX Game Pass PC version, and the menu music is the same as you described it. (First heard during the Biomes trailer)
1:58
This made me just sit at the main menu and take it all in.
