MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries
BE YOUR OWN WEAPON OF WAR
Welcome to the year 3015! It’s a hell of a time to be alive.
Humanity has colonized thousands of star systems spanning a vast region of space known as the Inner Sphere. The golden age of cooperation and advancement is now a distant memory, and humanity has once again splintered into disparate factions all vying for supremacy.
In the midst of these Succession Wars, power-hungry Mercenaries like yourself are in a privileged position to capitalize big time. It’s dangerous work but that’s why you’re here, right? If you’ve got an itch to blast, wreck, stomp, and go all out ballistic, step inside and become your own weapon of war!

this DLC added a lot of references to the clan invasion in the news tab, pirates going missing the periphery and the like, hopefully, if there is another DLC it will have some clan invasion stuff in it.
That would be baller as fuck. Those double heat sinks are so unfair.
@@mattkomlofske8912 I actually found they take as much space as 3 reg heatsinks while working like 2 regs they are good if you have space and are low on tonnage but not ideal if you have space and tonnage for more singles.
@@gunrunner7224 they only really shine on assault mechs
@@gunrunner7224 They are helpful to reduce weight so you can add armor or ammunition. I have light mechs with max armor because of using Double Heat Sinks.
Can we get clan tech next please? My favourite mech of all time is the Madcat.. please please please!🙏🙏🙏🙏
One thing I think everyone should know about cantina missions is that they can be canceled. On the home page click on where it shows the orange star on the upper left and then you can abort any of the cantina missions without any negative impact. I had no idea about this until I watched a UA-camr do it.
Can you do this for console?? Cuz there is no cursor to select stuff on the menu :(
Thank you!! I've been sitting on 6 missions making almost no progress. I'll need to try this out later today.
Damn, I had no idea. Thank you!
@@bombomos just discovered what to do. Go to the operations tab and go to objective logs.
There need to be a mode conquest. Choose one of the houses and you need to dominate all planets that would be so awesome
Yes or at least open more conrtacts if you have a friendly home on the frontline and you beat a mission
For real. I wanna join House Steiner and rampage across the Inner Sphere. Let The Iron Mongers take the field!
Mechassault 2 had something like that
I remember something like that on mechassault 2 on xbox around 2004.
the most lore breaking thing ever: conquering IS as Capellan
The random salvage containers will also give your mech ammunition of you need some.
Really damn
Another tip for people, moving a mech to cold storage will also strip the upgrades meaning you will have to rebuy the upgrades if you decide to use that mech again.
Thats good to know and hurts my soul cuz i got some upgraded mechs in cold storage.
@@madking1485 yeah it really annoyed me taking weapons off is fine they aren't to expensive to put back on. But having to repurchase say 5 mil in upgrades can really hurt your bank.
Thanks
That is just BS. Like how the upgrades just disappears from the mech like that. This is just a feature that makes the game unnecessary complicated without any logical reason.
@@JV-ll1cu Completely agree, there's quite a few choices in this game that made me think "What? Why? That's dumb" I still like it don't get me wrong but its really disappointing they seem to aim "just over the line" instead of "Aiming for the stars". Personally I think the perks are dumb they should of just expanded the customisation like the mods Merc tech and reloaded did where if you wanted better armour or acceleration or turn speed you actually buy new engines and reinforced armour and different gyros.
Missed the BIG thing for rifles, they can be mounted in smaller slots... heavy and medium rifle only take up medium slots, unlike heavier ac weapons.. which can only be mounted on LARGE ballistics slots. Light rifles can be mounted in small ballistics, which only had machine guns before.
I can not wait to the Invasion of the Clans, i would love to fight with Comstar on Tukayyid
I knowwwwww! Ugh I really hope it will be a thing
Yup
Do we know if there will be future DLC releases related to Clans?
@@cwyang80 not that I know of, but wouldn't make sense for them too to keep up with the storyline? Especially in the dropship after the last mission and how our main character learned that his father and himself are descendants of the clans?
@@cwyang80 we know nothing, i hope for the best 😅
god i wish phil made all the youtube videos i look up to find things out, such clean videos and explained so clearly. Thanks Phil
Really enjoying this game! First mechwarrior game I played, its getting me into the franchise.
O, that takes me back! My first was MW3. I would recommended trying BattleTech if you haven't already. Also in case you didn't know there is a table top, that's where all these came from. Though there are a lot of rules and dice rolls, etc. The models are great! So I buy just to have them around.
Yep, series started as a tabletop rpg combat game and got adapted in the 80s and 90s as BattleTech and MechWarrior.
BattleTech is an isometric style game with more open play where the MechWarrior games are FPS styled play.
Both pull from the BattleTech table game and both use tech and mechs associated with the game.
My first was MW2..... What a great ride it has been!!
Same here now I’m addicted I played Armorcore when I was lil and sucked at it cuz it was too advanced for me at the time so I thought these types of games was garbage but then recently got bored with FPS’s and gave MW5 a try and now I’m sucked into this genre n luving it
I started with MechAssault and MechWarrior online and now playing MechWarrior 5.
Very useful explanation. I knew most of it but I could learn 2 things that improve the way of playing. Thank you very much!
Career paths is a bad name for those perks from the Cantinas. IMO
Side jobs would of been better because they aren't really careers.
Thank you so much for this info!👍
You got the voice. Timing. Editing. Well done sir. Do ANYTHING in this genre or other games / hobbies in this format = win.
Who's bright Idea was it to loose all of your rep when Steiner and Davion join to the FedCom!
Don't tell me these things
Yes this my god.
I know right?
I was going all davion and now it’s worthless
You forgot how you can target an airstrike to a Tagged or NARCed enemy.
WHAT
I learned something new about the DLC. Thank you. Now I will be able to easier find the Mechs i want for my team. I am still having one problem,,,,getting gauss weps and ammo is terrible! One time I got them as I thought I should and the rest of the games have been harder than pulling teeth to get them. Battlemaster with Bap and Countermeasures is sweet.
GR is still a very rare weapon as it should be because it is a lost tech weapon, however medium or heavy rifle is a good alternative.
My friend in the year 3041 in the news it says that Gauss rifles become mass production with double heat sinks so keep playing. Also new models of battlemechs become available after some years like the wolfhound, Mauler and Hatamoto chi. And I almost forget to mention that it becomes easier to find higher technology weapons with the passing of time including pilots that can develop all their skills to 10 like the protagonist 😄
By the way, do the cantina jobs, I found 2 jobs which offered tier 4 GR.
Broooo what if after the clan DLC, we get a battle of Turkyyid DLC, where we actually have to hold off the clans in lore accurate battlegrounds with 24+ mechs on the ground?
I have to say, the community did so much work to make this game so awesome. Mods are a must in my opinion. I really hope we get Clan's and all other good part of Mech Warrior Online. I really hope the Bushwacker of MWO will come to MW5. It's such an iconic mech.
Fantastic video
I will buy this dlc after beating campaign so it like a new game lol. Enjoy the shit out of it confused at me first. But once you understand the mechanics.
If I beat the ge.and I get the dlc,can I used that data I have?
Great breakdown 👍
This truly is the darkest timeline when pc crossplay with pc is a thing to even mention...
9:35 i also had times, when picking up salvage replenished some ammo on my mech.
I had beachead operation and ran out of ammo on my lrm boat (no other weapons, only lurms). So while i was stumbling around and letting AI do the thing - picked up crate and got like extra 200 rockets.
And my friend told me he repaired some armor when picked that up in our coop playthrough. But i cant confirm that one
I havent gotten mw5 due to having a bad graphics card, but i would love a conquer galaxy rts feature.
Hopefully they add more mission types in the future (and the Raven 3M, that'd be cool too)
Great Summary!
I do have a question which is quite disturbing is that when you have a lance with 3 additional Atlas for example, how can you tell which Atlas you are looking at is F2, F3 or F4 if they all have the same color skin?
Just picked up the Hero Atlas that runs at 64kph 🥲
I love that mech, all those pulse lasers make it my go-to for boss fights.
Haven't seen an Atlas myself yet. Base model moves at Urban Mech speeds, I assume?
просмотрел весь ютуб,Ты реально первый блоггер который нормально обьяснил как же работают улучшение mech
im face palming.. i dint realize that the perks or upgrades from the cantina jobs was the ones I could put on the mechs... that's maybe why I'm struggling so much bcs the higher I go the more powerful enemies you encounter that also possibly also has this or other modifiers and such while we do not oof
yea me too I did that as well.
@@andytaylor5282ep... I thought that once you got an upgrade all of your mechs would have it by default... Never thought I had to manually install them on each mech. 😂😂😂😂
Can't wait for clans...
although i am happy to see this stuff...i feel like with the price tag of the game when it came out THIS should be in the base game, this is what we should have gotten to begin with.
All games nowadays
Where is the Infantry?
It is gonna be a mod i think.
@@MajorAce_usedtobeMechchad Think it's been cancelled.
@@dmaxwell910901 idk maybe
Supply crates were in the base game as were Chem Lasers, operation mission view/mech view... and every weapon, Chem Laser and Rifle ammo was a dog to find but you would get the weapons all the time in missions. Laser-SB has always been in the game.... did you not find any as all? The biggest thing that kept me away from SB lasers is there is no ER variant (base game) there might be in the dlc, i havent made it that far
Finished the game vanilla, no DLC and I've never found chem lasers or Rifles
Where is the infantry mod? You know one of the features you sold the DLC on and literally removed it day of launch
They just refuse to release it, despite the fact it's already been made.
@@dmaxwell910901 Kinda like the DLC that was suposedly finished last november...
Probably knocks your framerate to single digits when they spawn in
Let's see if the old Battletech books will go back in print since there is a bit of a renewal for the series. But this game needs mods to fix the broken economy.
Still a long ways to go to have all of the features of MW2 Mercenaries. Good start, but more to add.
Most definitely
Like what?
@@Drewbyy Play MW2 and find out.
Thing is... this would be better if you could stick things like ams and ecms into any hard point or something that remedies the fact that there's a handful of mechs that use them. This is one of my biggest criticisms along with the total lackluster of a.i commands and nav points. Clan weapons etc would be epic too.
So much potential and it's almost there, that's what's so frustrating with it.
Agreed, lots of features in MW2 that really made that game amazing is entirely missing here in 5...
It almost baffles me... MW5 is like half of MW2....
Just why?
Then you'd have nothing but PPC'S in the torsos and missile holes of mechs
Instead of the purpose built designs with recognisable weapon hard points.
This is an eighteen minute video from an official channel talking about their game. This is where you find a lot of the gold that we go to Let's Plays and Video Reviews to find, the kind of stuff that doesn't easily fit into review columns that are pressed for time or where advertising time or trailers are limited to being about a minute long.
The bombs on the left, background, gave me a lootbox PTSD moment
I love this game. I don’t know if it ever had bugs or other issues but as of now I think it’s beautifully made and very, very, very well designed and I’m downloading this expansion now.
My only complaint, and it’s a huge one, is Ryana’s voice.
I have never heard a voice actor with a northern London accent, I don’t think anyone has and I think that’s for a reason.
I love all my fellow humans and Ryana’s actor is a better actor and speaker than I could ever be but some accents are extremely problematic for people from some areas.
We were certain she was chosen by a team for whom English is a second language because I don’t think anyone else would choose a Northern accent for someone who is speaking to their players constantly.
I’m hoping Ryana is on a well earned holiday during the career mode of this dlc or that I can choose a different crew?
You need to addres the issue of not been able to see who is the employer and the opfor without the need of travelling to the star system. Lots of times I end up travelling to find that there are only contracts with factions I dont want to work with.
Apart from that, the game is great🙂👍
It's not exact, but you can View Intel in the Starmap for each system, which tells you who offers which mission and which mechs are likely to be encountered by the OpFor.
If you mark the planets where you may want to go in the map and click on "View contracts" in the lower right corner of your screen, it will show you who the employers are, who do they want you to fight with and what kind of missions they are proposing. I know your comment is 1 year old, but just in case!
I must admit that graphics, framerate and UI is much better here than on Xbox Series X. Shame.
Sad part is it was so much better than what you see now for pc then they made it look horrid for console, should have been 2 versions but you get what you put into the hobby I guess
I always never read they type of mission and then take a annihilater on a beach head mission.
Haha that must have hurt 😂
@@cwyang80 I just turn throttle decay off point towards the objective and go do laundry or something.
I guess one way to sum up MASC (to those that're unfamiliar) is that it allows the equipped mech to "Sprint", where fatigue would be harmful, literally.
am I right?
Tour graphics look good, would you kindly post your graphic settings?
Bring infantry back and upgrade them, c'mon :(
Hi, can you help to understand in what part of game troopers were first implemented?
@@Charodiy_UA I never played the game with them because i wasn't aware they were even in the game. It was apparently sometime after a larger update, pre inner-sphere DLC. Sorry it's not specific.
@@RoyalOps1222 they arent they will be a mod soon
Another thing to note about the Rifle weapons is that they are lighter than their AC counterpart (Light - AC2 Medium-AC5 Heavy-AC10)
I typically use them to augment my alpha damage and for precision shots to deliver knock out shots to damaged mech sections
I still think the Autocannons are better all round, but if you're not able to pack a heavier autocannon they get the job done
they reload longer, tho. one miss shot and it's hell to wait for reload.
@@KoeSeer Definitely. You need to be confident in your shot and you absolutely cannot waste it. You also get fewer total shots per ton of ammo
Marauder 2 4a/5a Haven't found a single one for purchase outside of the Steiner/FWL dlc campaign missions best places to find them?
Hey man i dont know if you found any yet but there is a reddit thread where a guy found one in meachan(or however you spell it) and i found both of my 5a's in the industrial hub in the heart of kurita space its gonna cost like 27million though so prepare
What are the specs to play using a Steam Deck? Does it allow to connect amonitor, keyboard and mouse?
It would be nice if you can actually affect the expansion of a house when you do mission for them :(
Your 1 battle is one among millions going on at the same time across the inner sphere, it makes sense to me that there isnt a huge effect from missions
I thought I was getting news reports about my house's enemies struggling and their leaders getting fired etc. Not actual physical evidence of my effect on them but a token. Then there's my standing with everyone
and that's... something.
This dlc is a stand alone next to the campaign? or wil it overwrite the campaign + all the c-bills + mechs earned over time.
if only they would add a Metal Gear Rex as a fun easter egg life would be complete
Just play as Stalker it looks really freaking close
@@molassesman4066put hands on it,it might
@@ruthiekest3218 REX doesnt have hands thats why it needed thr street fighter progam to kick yhe shit outta RAY
can you install things like mechtech v2 and pirate tech on teh xbox games pass edition?
Should I start a new game with this DLC continue while play the last DLC
I have seen masc but never seen any of the other equipment
I wonder if they actually fixed any of the pressing issues of the game mainly the enemy spawns, but I doubt it they probably just left it to the modders to fix it for them.
They actually fully fixed the spawns. Enemies never spawn right on top of you anymore. If anything, they're too far at spawn now sometimes. Hahah.
What about infantry? :(
I thought the official mod was coming out? Has it been cancelled or delayed?
Coming in patch 2
@@TimberWulfIsHere Another few weeks... it just keeps getting delayed.
@@dmaxwell910901 it's not delayed when they never gave us a specific date. They initially planned to release it as is, but decided to keep working on improvements.
Hell, could release the mod myself RIGHT NOW if I wanted to. But if you knew exactly how it worked, you would be disappointed with how basic the ai is.
Let them perfect art and release when ready.
@@TimberWulfIsHere I wouldn't be disappointed, I fully expect it to be simple as hell. I just really like the sense of scale infantry provides. I guess I kinda hope someone else does release it early, it'd just be a nice addition to the game.
I more mean that the feature itself has been delayed so much. First it was delayed in December, along with the DLC. Then they pulled it out last minute to release it as a mod. Now this.
@@TimberWulfIsHere Believe me, just a bunch of little people running around and shooting is enough.
Now on PS4 and PS5 as well
I want to play this so bad on my playstation but the controls with the controller is really awful. I hope the controls get a good rework.
is crossplay also for Epic Games too
Yes
Please add GYRO-AIMING FOR THE PLAYSTATION thanks!
Im surprised you even found 10 features ot make a video about...
Is it possible we go through the heroes of inner sphere career mode first or kestrel DLC, then transfer your progress to the main story campaign of the original game?
Unfortunately not. Would be fun tho
If u beat the game our not,can I used my data on dlc?
Yes
I wish the console supports mouse and keyboard.
Wish you can set game in day or night like in mw4
Just fix the AI for the lance mates.
Hey British and Australian people! Now just befor we commence battle we can all get our baps out!
So, when will this DLC will be available on Epic?
has been available since May 27
@@20SidesOfZeke Ouch. How could I've missed it....
Bruh
Go on......
Is this all you comment? Why?
@@TimberWulfIsHere I want to see more quality work you have here. That's why I say Go on.
Dovreste ottimizzare meglio il gioco su xbox series x.
its new patch or dlc futures ?
jobs = fucking grind for a few modificators
Half the shit he listed is in the base game. Why talk about it in the dlc video if it's not added with dlc?
The feature we didn't need was killing the current mods.
Not worth the money I’m waiting
I'm guessing you expect to pay 5 dollars for a BMW too?
@@TimberWulfIsHere Comparing MW5 to a BMW? Maybe a BMW you found at the bottom of a lake
