#MW5Clans (#Mechwarrior5Clans) by Piranha Games. Get it at mw5clans.com
MechWarrior 5: Clans is an upcoming BattleTech Mecha game under development by Piranha Games and due for release in 2024 on Windows and Consoles. It is the first Clan single player MechWarrior game since 1995.
MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries is set in 3015 during the final decade of the Third Succession War, casting the player as a rookie mercenary MechWarrior rising from the ashes of a demolished mercenary unit. They are able to accept contracts from the various factions available in this time period. The campaign is said to go all the way up to 3049, just before the Clan Invasion." - Ігри
The clanners speak correctly too, not just some items like "aff" and "neg" but they do not seem to use contractions. very cool!
Longer words and no contractions are easier to understand on the radio and minimize any possible confusion. That's why contractions are frowned on in ATC and military radios, and proper radio chatter is quite ritualistic.
It's called brevity, and it's something the majority of sci-fi militaries including BattleTech lack.
@@TimberWulfIsHere Contractions are seen as lazy to the clansmen. You're supposed to be disciplined in all things, including the words you speak.
I was listening for that too! Great attention to detail!
@@TimberWulfIsHere In lore the Clanners don't shorten the language because they see it as disrespectful to Star League English to do so.
Aren’t aff and neg contractions
The original Mechwarrior 2: and Mechwarrior 2 Expansion: Ghost Bear's Legacy, we played as Clans. In Mechwarrior 2 Mercenaries, we were an IS Merc company. It is possible the campaign for MW5 Clans might be the parallel of Mech 2 Mercs, since in Mercs you battled a ton of Smoke Jaguar, culminating on the final mission being the battle against Smoke Jaguar at Luthien. But we will see, it looks interesting.
This looks good. Battletech has so much lore you could cook out these for years if it takes off.
Honestly wish they would pick up MW/Battletech after seeing the success of Dune.
Edit: It's basically Game of Thrones; in space; with giant robots instead of dragons.
For real. Individual Battletech factions have more lore than entire other GAMES
And this one (finally!) looks like it portrays the clanner culture in detail accurately as it was in the lore and sourcebooks, and not just the mechs.
The trailer really nails that ‘brainwashed, terribly competent, slightly unhinged zealot’ energy the clanners bring
Hopefully they have Company/Trinary scale engagements. Sure you can only control your Star/Lance but it would be nice to not be the only hope on the battlefield.
I mean there's a binary worth of friendlies initially at one point...
UI is made to be more console compatible, additionally the fact they demo as 3rd person means they're looking to make this game more accessible for a larger audience
I liked to play in 3:rd person in MW4 a lot actualy, helped seeing if you were actualy cooling with the feet in water/not trampling friendlies :P
It’s damn near always been 3rd person I started playing on MW2
Surat is a common insult Smoke Jaguars use to describe Pirates and Mercenaries as they're not good enough to deserve being insulted by being called Freebirth or Stravag in their eyes, so nice call on the narrative designers.
Also, almost the entirety of the warrior cast of the Smoke Jags are Vat tube clones. So, expect to see multiples of the same person at different ages. They are also the most cold, militaristic and zealous of the crusader clans. So the way they reacted to the situation is perfectly on point, it is a bizarre mix of emotionless professionalism combined with a desire of vengeance and seeing those who wronged them as scum.
Jaguars were a bold choice, I'll give them that. The least warm and fuzzy of all the Crusaders by far.
All Clans use Surat.... Surat is a Monkey like creature
@@Ruebezahl07 We all know that, you're not "educating" anyone.
@@foxdavion6865 I read some falcon books! Quiaff
@@Ruebezahl07 Uh huh and never have you ever bothered to consider that the attitude of each clan differs ay?
Been using your Hero Cyclops on MW5 for years, first time on your channel. Nice work!
Welcome aboard!
Well done TTB, thank you for the time and effort you put into reporting on Clans, it's much appreciated.
I have excited anticipation for the new engine and storyline development that seems to be in place. One of the top issues I will be focused on is customization for I do remember MechWarrior 2 and then MechWarrior 3 with its completely unrestricted ability to run anything in any Mech granted you had the slots and the weight to handle it. Also from MechWarrior 3 you could take your customized Mechs that you ran in campaigns and play online against any player out there who also had dial up service lol. That being said I would also like to see that in Clans because it was a great way to practice one-on-one etc with a player of your choice and you can really focus on how you want the team to work together unobstructed with no timers and game stats. As far as UI options I'm really hoping I can change colors for my heads-up display and even in game scenery due to the fact that I am color blind specifically with reds greens and browns mixing together it can really make things get lost on the screen with me which in MWO is probably my largest handicap and definitely decides if I win or lose on certain maps at times. But regardless of what any reviews say good or bad I'm looking forward to the purchase because I will do whatever I can to keep PGI afloat to progress forward with their good intentions to expand this game back to a very popular platform. Keep up the positive work PGI so far it's looking very promising.
Can't wait for it to come out. The latest Solaris League DLC was great! Especially Duncan Fisher's jokes and the arena weapons.
Mentioning Wing Commander.. ahhh!!! memories.. I wish they would bring out a new one!
Hopefully they have less exposition while you're in heavy combat.
Mechwarrior Tube-Tykes and Vat-Babies your Inner Sphere Overlords welcome you!
Looks fantastic!
I agree, after all we actually PAY our Space AT&T HPG bills.
@@BeansAndWeens Good ones!
Looks like David Lynch didn't make it out of the meth lab before the explosion.
Looks like the story telling goes back to classic mechwarrior, where you had a Lance and not randos. Man all they ever needed to do was create a modern version of Vengence. Just model it after that.
The mech animations (shadow cat) look really stiff to me. I hope they clean it up a bit. But everything else looks great. Love the sat map, something starsiege had in 1999 and something mw5mercs needs badly.
I am pretty sure it is the same, now three times recycled, old MWO animations.
Still so thankful for my best friend in grade schools dad who got me into this series with mechwarrior 4 then burning copies of the game and expansions for me to take home. I've been with my boyfriend for 8 years and recently have been trying to get him into the series with some co-op on merchwarrior 5 mercs and now we're both playing mwo. His biggest complaint is a lack of story driven missions with mercs 5. Hope this new game reaches more people of this awesome universe.
I am excited to see where the story goes. As they obviously may not be characters previously explored in the novels or lore.
I like the voice acting a lot better, and the lines seem to be a lot better, but I feel like they’re speaking reeeeally slow right now. They’ve already got the text up there, so I don’t think they need to be that slow in order for the meaning to come across.
TBH, I'd like to see Clans as big DLC for MW5:Mercs too. Like we'll have standalone game and may be DLC for Mercs sandbox?
I would pay full price
I am excited that the MechWarrior franchise is expanding and starting to include more RPG and lore elements. I am in turmoil that they decide not to keep it an open BattleTech universe (perhaps in later DLC?). Experiencing a dynamic BattleTech universe (inputs from AI and player campaign) like Hell Divers 2 and seeing the internal and external impacts would create a bigger fan base.
At the level of a single lance or star, even most mercenary companies barring the really big ones like the Northwind Highlanders, Mcarrons Armored Cavalry and Wolf's Dragoons you don't really have any impact except being another body on the battlefield. The only time that I know of smaller units having some sort of effect on the Inner Sphere at such a scale would be the Lone Wolves training the militia of the Alyina Mercantile League and defending them from pirates, and even then, they were just one of many mercenary commands, though the biggest player there at the time.
This is the first time ive been excited for a mechwarrior game in a long time. I love battletech but i don't actually play the first person games anymore, and prefer to watch people like you play. But this might have sold me to come back.
I like the jags mech paintshemes!
It's from their Delta Galaxy ("The Cloud Rangers ")
Really looking forward to the game. Thanks for the video!
I would expect/hope for "procedual generation" on TOP of the Campaign (maybe only in instant action), as that's also one of the strong additions in UE5.
It all handmade content they said as much. Also the game was originally made in UE4 for old gen console so they wouldn't have been able to use those tool. (And they don't currently work well at runtime so it there would be some big tech challenge)
Like the old mech warriors game building your lance and getting to know your lance mate to the point I would reload if a favourite one died. Any one remember Goblin ? He was in my Lance the entire game :)
Standing by to co op this game with your sir o7
Could have easily been a Mercs DLC with a UE5 engine overhaul. But of course for the sake of marketing and appeal they had to be seperate the games. It's a shame because I really like Mercs which I feel has more lasting power than a one off clanner campaign.
Hopefully it’s not a one off bc the clans are way more interesting than the IS, with better mechs. These houses using mercenaries to fight their wars is super lazy and poor story telling.
looks awesome,add alot of the mods in as well.
TTB. Where can I find the unedited video footage you show? Thanks
I think shitty crosshairs is a representation of deteriorating targeting equipment... But it's supposed to be this way for Inner Sphere, not so much for the clans, this they've got backwards 😂
Honestly having a bad crosshair and improve it with targeting computers sounds like a neat idea
It doesnt look like the enemy ai are any different, still no torso twist. Oh well hopefully TTRulez comes to clans
you can expect that many assets and code are coming from M5, they just don't have the budget/time to redo it. Perhaps it will be improved somewhat, but I'm not expecting too much
That's my fear
What surprises me is they don't engage with the modders that have done a lot of the hard work improving the AI. But there seems to be few developers that truly engage with their modding communities. Either way I'll still bite as a decent cinematic campaign in an up to date engine will be a nice take away!
@@PALADIN867PGI has been notorious to ignore people who improve their game. Both MWO and MW5 shows this.
The cool down pips on the cross hair could be toggleable in the options menu like in MW5: Mercs. The footage may just have them toggled off.
I had someone ask me about the lore of Battletech and I told them it was Game of Thrones before there was Game of Thrones, but without the incest.
Actually, in the lore, it's common for sibkin to have sex with other sibkin. There's no taboo on sex for Warriors and they often have recreational sex with other Warriors.
Apt description since both universes are based on real medieval period conflicts, according to each property's authors.
GoT is a weird remix of the War of the Roses. Battletech sets out a modified retelling of the onset of the Dark Ages after the collapse of the Holy Roman Empire.
This little taster has me wanting this game so damn much.
Soo looking forward to CLANS yeah !
This looks great! I hope they add some new mechs like the Mongrel and Pouncer.
I am very much looking forward to what they do with this game. Still playing MW5 mercs with all the dlc that they have been making. 100% agree about the pilot AI. Also those previews being incorrect just show that the reviewers didn't play MWO or Mercs.
I'm looking forward to this much more than I was Mercenaries, mainly because of the story driven design. Story felt kinda bolted on on Piranha's Mercenaires, although it definitely improved since launch with a more feature rich story cinematic and of course the dlc mini-storylines. But to me, I am very interested in learning more about the lore and over-arching story simply because while I find it interesting, I've never really delved into it, so this is my chance.
It might be nice to see how if your actions somehow loosely affect the perceptions of you and your unit though. For example, I have heard somewhere that the clanners tend to think of melee as being barbaric and even dishonourable, it would be interesting to see if I fight up close and brawl often if somehow the game tracks that and my character (Jayden?) is seen as something of a maverick etc, etc.
What tickles me- Mercenaries has always been the next-gen Mechwarrior sequels. It always came out type of expansion of the original. They turned it around this time Mercenaries came first
This game is what many fans have been waiting for years. Mercenaries had some shortcomings such as a lack of CG cutscenes, a soundtrack that didn't quite fit, and randomly generated stage levels. However, Piranha Games have taken on board feedback from players and improved upon these aspects. This time around, we get to experience the game from the perspective of Smoke Jaguar.
The half assed mech lab lol.....but casual fans didn't notice that. Hopefully they fix the mech lab because some clan tech won't work in the mw5 mercs pathetic lab
I'm not sure what you're talking about, but MW5 is a disaster and a huge disappointment for any fan of the MW game franchise. Anyone who is content with a gameplay loop cycle that consists of "deploy on randomly generated map, blow up a few waves of poorly equipped punching bags, retreat, rinse and repeat" should spend the rest of their life playing rogue-likes.
@@TirenSilverfallAre you well? A disaster for you maybe. For me its great though not fantastic. Sure there should have been more. I wish they had a more immersive gameplay, like what was shown in the early trailers and gameplay. But Im sure you are a fanatastic programmer, why dont you get a job at PGI and show them how its done! I have a 30+ note list of features that me wants 😂 Get to work or I'll review bomb the game if you dont cater to MY needs!!!!!
The biggest problem in Mercs was the proc generated environments, and the AI - especially lancemate AI. The AI would get stuck constantly on terrain features in the proc generated levels, and would require tedious player intervention to fix. Further, the AI was just... bad. Especially once you get toward the endgame - it handled itself better with light and medium mechs, but heavy, and especially assault mechs, the AI just doesn't know how to use.
@@acehigh79 the mechlab was pretty bad.
My main concern is that the game will be too shallow and even less depth than MW5 Mercs. I strongly prefer the mechlab customization that some mods have brought to the game to the point I don't particularly enjoy vanilla.
Im so hyped for this. I hope this game and armored core bring mech combat games back to their former glory.
Helmar Valasek missed a golden opportunity to say "smoked jaguars."
They're tasty, especially teriyaki style.
Why is this not a dlc? Its basically the same game, and they can ask for whatever price they want for it anyway.
Because dlc sell less the older a game get and they rarely generate interest outside of the current player base aka not much visibility/growth opportunity. High priced DLC are very uncommon as they get compared to full game (You can find plenty of data/articles on the subject if you are interested). And it's kind of a MechWarrior tradition at this point
It's a new game. They are just using the mechwarrior5 name because otherwise they'd need a new IP licensing agreement.
Hopefully I can get it on xbox
I am excited for this release and there is no scenario where they won't be getting my money. Thank you for linking the Jade Falcon trilogy. Folks should check out humble bundle. They had a bundle of ALL of the Battletech universe books (around 60) for super cheap for ereaders
My biggest concern is the replay-ability. Mechwarrior 5 had great replay-ability. I'm afraid this one is going to be stuck in a linear story with very little replay-ability.
I kinda hope we have the option of a IS campaign where you can import your MW5 mercs save to compensate for the clanner BS. I definitely would like to bully a Madcat with a Marauder 2 and Atlas ganking it
I would love it if clan mechs would have a different-sounding Bitchin Betty. Unless that is supposed to be an AI-voice from the SLDF-era that everyone copied
20:52 I have that article clipped and framed on my wall!
Wow! that dropship wasnt playing , it was gone
After that slob that was Mercs im glad to be on rails.
Thank god the graphics look beautiful now
I would like it if some of these assets in clans could be crossed into mercenaries. I'd love to have clan mechs and the clan invasion to play in the sandbox style. I can handle the wonky AI in mercs but what frustrated me to no end was being in a battle in the scrapyard for instance, and lancemates would get stuck.
I knew it! I *KNEW* IT!!! When I saw three dead and empty drop ships on a desert planet and Jags getting blown up, I rembered the source book "Invading Clans" and how the Jags got fooled by Helmar Valasek on Santander V !
Well, let's wait for OPERATION REVIVAL then :D .
I am super hyped for this!! This looks like the Mech game I have been waiting for since Mechwarrior 4!! And yes I do enjoy MW 5 but I kind of miss the Linear story campaign like the good old days. Battletech could easily be Game of Thrones in space. So much rich good story and history. Still hoping for a mech assault 3 and a MechCommander 3 as well...... Getting this day one.
O I will buy this ASAP !
COME ON MAN...they make the Clans look nasty...and I am here for it!!! I have been all in on this franchise since its inception! I have played tabletop since 85, and still do. I remember the getting suspended from High School for installing it on the library PC!! Hey...they shouldn't have left the admin password out...just sayin!! I played at the Battletech Center in Chicago when I was stationed at Great Lakes for A school in the Navy. God those were awesome, 150 something toggles, switches, pedals and triggers, and none were for show!! I am happy where the franchise is now. The tabletop is still going strong, you have the tabletop on PC, you have MWO which I am a founder of, and you have Mechwarrior 5! Yes it's had some up and downs, but the modding community for it has been insane!! So I have High hopes for this, especially since my favorite Battletech novel series was The Legend of the Jade Phoenix Trilogy. Can't help it, I AM A CLAN MW....(0.o)
Is that running on UE5? *edit* - Confirmed! Wow that is gonna be friggin sick! Could tell UE4 was holding back some of the things they wanted to do with MW5 vanilla. Cant wait to play this!
I like the changes and I agree that the interface needs work
My guess is that we won't have cutscenes of the kind we saw for the trailer a lot. Maybe here and there one but I have my doubts they can keep it like that for the entire game.
Hope that I am wrong about it.
The tactical map reminds me of MechCommander in a simplier version.
I hope that the radial menu is optional. I prefere hotkeys.
Is there a gameplay without somebody´s narration? I would like to hear in-game sounds too :/
oh ok i can play the game now thanks
In the future it would be very cool to see a casual pvp system in the game. Like helldivers having missions that can be completed on either side of the conflict causing sectors of planets, if not the whole planet, to change sides.
That would be sick
The " blue-green " colors name you are after is called teal or cyan which is brighter. Yeah I hope they dont gut actual great features, details MW5m had like regarding the pips etc. I assume the health is of the pilots? If the total structure+armor, I would prefer smaller mech paperdolls also HTAM bars as option in general
I hope we get a dlc were we fight the clans
"THE CLANS ARE COMING, FREEBIRTH SCUM!"
Me: Just keep them talking while I prep some explosives, or mines, or-
7:55 Yeah, something like that! That's exactly what I would have done.
It's going to be interesting to see how they handle tukayyid since smoke jaguar did so poorly there. Unlike many of the other clans that despite defeats found success in the innersphere as a whole, smoke jaguar's story is pretty sad from their perspective. I'm curious as to the decision to tell a story from their side.
Ghost bear ftw. Kodiak with 4 clan ER PPCs.....double heat sinks are the way!
Mechwarrior online graphics seem dated. Do you know when the next version(just PVP) will come out.
I'm looking forward to it but I would rather pit my IS merc group against them. I would like to be helping Victor rescue Hohiro or be part of the fight defending Luthien.
I suggest everyone read the Legend of the Jade Phoenix, starting with Way of the Clans. The books are available in various places and Amazon has the Kindle version. It'll be the best way to build a foundation so you can understand the terms, structure and society involved.
There does appear to be a bit of disconnect with the introduction of the sibkins when meeting what appears to be a new commander? Usually the sibko has the same Warrior(s) until testing out. It wouldn't be normal for this type of introduction unless the Star has tested out. Also, unless under extraordinary circumstances the Sibkins won't fight Non-Clan opponents.
Happy Hunting.
it sounds like something happened with their sibko, or they somehow failed out and are being given one last chance before being relegated to a lower caste.
@@TheWorldsprayer while we don't know what we don't know it's possible something happened to their sibko. As far as a 2nd chance? Only happened once in lore. And it created quite the scandal with far reaching consequences. If you fail in any of your trials you're either dead or removed. Regulated to a lower caste. That's why I suggest reading the books
It's a completely alien society from our own.
clans were special until they realized every IS mech just scoop up tech decades ahead of theirs and just plug and play.
not holding my breath with the AI cause well pgi and understanding that players actually want help from AI seems hard for them to understand
Please be good, please be good, please be good.
Where is the video of this without the commentary...
I hope the ai is improved
This man needs passion fruit juice and a good night's sleep, as he is very stressed.
2:50 you wish your hairline was that good 🤣 and i wish mine were that good too, womp womp.
That's true born genetics for ya. 😂
Is this a whole new game? I thought it was a big DLC
I won't buy this game unless the ai for enemies is vastly improved over the trash we got in Mechwarrior 5. They need to get rid of those tiny square mission areas and create some good quests/missions for us to do.
So an entirely different game? Or a DLC for 5?
One more dlc for MW5, Clans is standalone
Such a cool Universe. Can not understand why there are no movies or tv series... Maybe Netflix has some interest?? Movie Makers please read the novels! So much material!!!
For many many years FASA hold rights on this universe tight. They think that tabletop game is enough for them. No games, no movies, little books...
This is cool but I would have preferred to have the improvements this game has, added to Mechwarrior 5.
i like it...
i hope modding is given a proper api so mfers can mod in the post ilClan superheavies
Accessible?... Maybe; in need of a zellbrigen mod? Yes.
I get no mission cross progression but during co op they NEED to allow you to use your own mechs and not just the host's.
Timberwolf
⚜️💀⚜️
the portraits look AI generated, a bit unfortunate
the cutscenes with the models also had some weird AI shimmering you can see it on the kid's lips when it's that side view
makes me worried how many corners they're gonna cut, already a lot of reused audio and the shaders look similar to the other game
overall looks promising, but I'm still not holding my breath if they can make a compelling story campaign that can hold up on it's own
at least with MW5 I can just have fun doing the mount and blade gameplay of it
They are 3d model and don't look like IA generated at all. PGI has a no AI generation policy too
wow it has old computer voice
This looks much more engaging than MW5 Mercs, I couldn't even bring myself to complete the campaign with that. But MW5 Clans I can imagine getting some friends together to play it with. Fun times ahead!
In og mw5 the AI was so dumb it would shoot you in the back. 🤦♂️
I hope you can just have random people join you or join someone else's game.
Nop, same system as MW5. Invite only
I cannot get behind the command wheel, it screws with me often in MWO already... missing the usage of F1 to F8 and such, quick tapping and no menues screwing up the picture. Its for consoles ofc. Maybe it can be bound... just like adding CD for weapons groups on the reticule should definitely be part of the settings for the game.
The hotkey are still there
It better be in The Clans! I know its in MW5 Merc., played through it on my old computer, forgot to save the savefile so havn't taken the time to play again on my "less old" computer... gotta get them last 3 DLCs and some nice mods... *yum yum*
@@Iliyena87 As I said they are still there, it's mentioned in one of the preview articles. The radial menu is a replacement for the Dpad menu of Merc
Big thx for adding that there is a real source! I thought it mostly speculation so did it back :) I just love to tap the buttons to command everyone in just a few moments. Let my will be done!
PvP?
I really don't get the UE5 hype, MW5 Mercs looks nearly as good with just the Ultra Visual and Weather mod.
It's UE4+PS4/XB0 game ported to UE5 late during dev with the old gen version canceled. And it's not a big budget game either. You'll just have less LOD popping thanks to nanite but otherwise it's a game made with UE4 tech in mind
Everything I’ve seen… I’m good. Looks amazing. I want a Mechwarrior 20, so I’m going to give them a lot of leeway. It’s clear they are passionate about the series.
I wish they would consider making a mwo2 because mwo has alot of flaws and the playercount reflects that. They should keep the mechlab the same but re think the store and match making. I would really enjoy light only pvp or any weight exclusive modes really. Also ditch the mech being locked to a game if you die early on. It doesn't add anything to the game and just makes people have to either wait or queue with another mech they might now want to play.
All I hope is, the career mode still has an IS merc option so I can take the fight to the clanner scum.
nah those portraits and message boxes are going to be an annoyance in combat and block too much of the player's view
