Nah, she was just brainwashed and had lived longer than the others so being part of Smoke Jaguar is all she knew. To give that up would have been like her giving up a part of herself and her identity.
1:39:30 Here's a thought: what if Naomi is basically Mia + 10 years' experience? That could help explain why she understands Mia's perspective so well. And why, sadly, her prediction that Mia wouldn't let Jayden take her willingly turned out correct.
Good point! I suspect that if the Invasion hadn't happened while Mia was so young, she could've had more time to mellow out (and/or grow cynical) like Naomi has.
Naomi Is interesting because she was eager to achieve something in the invasion before she would be relegated into a solhama cluster or a trainer role, but her being sidelined and slighted by her former commander made her cynical enough to avoid seeing the fanatically crusader mentality as her only path forward. She was definitely my favorite Starmate
A few small issues in illustrations Those helmets don't match the time period. They aren't dressed properly; those look like flight suits not what a MechWarrior would wear. It should be at most a jumpsuit. female mechwarriors should be in a vest and panties. They're dressing for temperatures in the 150 degree C ror higher
@@drmayeda1930 Lostech: Mechwarrior Equipment Guide (pages 50, 51 and 53) states that back in the SLDF, they used cooling suits, which the Inner Sphere lost the tech to do. that's why IS pilots wear wifebeaters and boxers in their mechs. it also states that Clans never lost the cooling suit tech, so what you see in this game is correct at least in terms of the Jags and the Dragoons, but not the pirate and Great House mechwarriors. it also states Clan neurohelmets are also similarly advanced, and compact like a normal flight helmet, not like the IS 5-gallon bucket helmets
@@drmayeda1930 You're thinking Spheroid. Clans never lost their technology and have been using cooling suits since day 1. Their neurohelmets also got more compact.
@@daemonhunter100 The early novels refer to cooling vests for both clan and IS. This is going back to the invasion leading up to the first Tukyid peace treaty. I can understand why neurohelmets weren't depicted correctly, it would be too hard to tell the pilots apart from V shaped slits in oversized dunce caps.
OK, so now that I've gotten a bit farther into the campaign, I can say I'm OK with how they designed the mech lab. I get it. The first thing I suggest people do after the first mission is unlock missile boat omnipods for every mech lol. I was able to unlock 4 out of the 5 after what I believe was the first mission. Then I unlocked the last one I wanted after the second mission. It was the ppc one. There's only one that comes with it I believe. I was having trouble with the second mission, kept losing a mech, so I loaded the autos Ave after the first mission and went into the mech bay and started configuring for missile boats. Missile boats are hyped for a reason. Every starter mech has a missile boat omnipod except 1 I believe, but thats OK because that one has a ppc omnipod. After switching omnipods and going with what I knew, I got through the mission without losing a mech or even a component on expert. Im also focusing on learning the controls and being more tactical and precise in my movements and strategy. God I love Mechwarrior lol.
@@eternal_affairs I'm currently replaying it paying closer attention to loadouts and pairing mechs according to character's buffs (like Naomi and LRMs). I find that investing in energy weapons and putting as many as physically possible helps a lot early in the campaign (Viper with 8 ER small lasers kicks ass). Nova with default 12 ER MLs is pretty good, but swap those for 14 ER SLs with room for additional heat sinks and armor and you will get a killing machine that can quickly cut through even heavier mechs. On my 1st playthrough I used stock loadouts, now I'm customizing and using my star more tactically during missions, and I find it now much easier to get through the missions on higher difficulty levels.
Nah. I think Piranha Games is just having some fun with a meme from 5 or 6 years ago that Tex, George and Crow started about TEETH in old BattleTech art from the 1980s. If that is the case, well done. Very well bargained and done.
Traitor! This despicable ending is most unacceptable, Mia is right, all traitors and spheroids shall tremble before our might! Clans shall emerge victorious! BTW I do not have problem with working under Clan Wolf's command.
Some cutscenes they look fine, on others they look like claymation. Think they had to rush out a fix for the cinematics when the trailers for the story was first uploaded and people noted the stiffness of the animations.
Honestly the backlash from the orbital brothers bombardment was dumb. FFS it was the norm pre- star league and the advent of the mech AND was the norm again during the first two succession wars. You got cap this in the age of armed dropships. That like have a fleet of Montana class battleships in the age of ironclads, USE THEM!
It shows just how much they had to work to keep the contractions out of their speech and make every word clipped, that is except Liam who uses a more natural dialect.
tbh it sounds fine to me, not all of the VA's are perfect but in what game are they? i think it works for smoke jaguar anyways because clans are pretty intense people and its fukin smoke jaguar so...yeaaaa
SOoooooooo i am bored. So this WOKE game where woman black are stronger then white man. And are leader somehow .... is Mechwarrior. I am sorry but I was so bored. And what is wrong with the story telling Writing? the drama is soo weak. I thank for the Cutscenes. Now I know and many people know this game is woke.
Also, this is Clan Smoke Jaguar. IIRC, their founders happened to include more black men and women than other Clans. As well as South Asian bloodlines like 'Mehta' (it's quite possible that Naomi is from that bloodline). (By contrast, Clan Ghost Bear is essentially Sweden/Denmark in space, so their leadership is largely white Nordic. Though it does also have some Chinese bloodlines like 'Tseng'). And Battletech was written in the 1980s. Nothing especially woke about that. If anything, the woke crowd could criticise this game for having several black men and a black woman leading a villain faction.
Well it just shows you have no idea what you are talking about. A bunch of "black leaders" female or otherwise leading Clan Snoke Jaguar to its demise should be a very anti-woke concept... If that would have been a thing back in the day.
@@NimbleJack3Another idiot mama boy. Nothing has todo the Game which i am a 25 years fan. To the cinematic woke shit. THE CINEMATIC IS BORONG , IT SUCK, Horrible writing. Woke s h. And the music if there is any just put you to sleep. Please go and finish school , let the adults talk about MechW. go to your real fiction like Mario and mushrooms.
as terrible as these cutscenes are they are superior to anything else in the game.. i can't believe the stole resources from mercs.. i demand new DLC for mercs or i will be refunding this game through the bank after being robbed

I like to think it was the Neural Implants that made Mia even more unhinged.
Nah, she was just brainwashed and had lived longer than the others so being part of Smoke Jaguar is all she knew. To give that up would have been like her giving up a part of herself and her identity.
Yea soon as saw the implants, you knew it was not going to end well for her.
I am the super clanner....yet I'm so feeble that I require these implants to compete....against surats...

Well she didn't blow herself up so she's got that going for her.

@@danielchen87 well being brainwashed does that too people too..
Could have been different if she didn't lose the fight of equals.
And especially if they'd managed to rescue Liam... Oh well. :(

Blake did nothing wrong!!!!
well, he certainly tried his best
Sadly leaving his journals caused thing to go way beyond anything rational.
The master did nothing wrong!
@@joeblogs8049 define "nothing"
Blake indeed did nothing wrong. Toyama, on the other hand...
He just wanted the employees take their job seriously, but apparently they take it TOO seriously.

Tukayyid......
Need to play mias path
I'm already on it.
Dragoon path is superior
@@ALV694 ok and ?
In the end of Mia's path it is Ezra's turn to sit inside a toppled mech which will go critical in a flash.
@@hujiaming6151 technically jayden kills him, but in ezra path Mia self destructs upon defeat.
This is a better story than Dawntrail.
Did Comstar's face change from her introduction to the suceeding videos?

Do clanners never smile when they talk to each other? It's like the gene for a grin was removed.
It's the SJs. they've always been a bit... intense.
@sablevo Since no one really likes them that's kinda understandable.
@@Blackout5871 Nahh... They were that way before everyone disliked them.
A true Mech Warrior would not use contractions
Traitor! This despicable ending is most unacceptable, Mia is right, all traitors and spheroids shall tremble before our might! Clans shall emerge victorious! BTW I do not have problem with working under Clan Wolf's command.
The face animations look like they were animated using AI.
Nah, I personaly think it has to do with the engine they use, Unreal is a bit uncanny valley for me at times, the very high res is always a bit off.
They sound OK to me.
Some cutscenes they look fine, on others they look like claymation.
Think they had to rush out a fix for the cinematics when the trailers for the story was first uploaded and people noted the stiffness of the animations.
Traitors always find a path of betrayal. At least you could call to trial of refusal but you prefer banal betrayal. Disgusting plot device
silence clanner you have no soul
@@nineballmk2 pew, this game can be played to both sides, IS you have no idea. ^)

As nice as all the cutscene are I just wish they made a better mech game.
All the voice actors sounds like this is their first gig. Absolute yikes.
I wouldn't say all of the voice actors, but it honestly kinda fits Battletech anyway. That said, some cutscenes are definitely rough.
