Two highlanders? Oh, but don't you know? There can be only one!
lol may be the only one who got that
I prefer Jagers
At 37:25, someone asked about PPC ammo...ಠ_ಠ
... technically .. heatsinks are ammo mfor energyweapos:P
yes i had to write that ..
The in game currency is insanely expensive along with the items in the game. I mean about $6 USD for a fucking color
28:46 Press the T key on your console to go thermo. You can really see a man's fear through thermograph.. - Dead Eye -
I remember playing "Mech Warrior 4" back when I was 14 and I thought it was the greatest game in the history of mankind. I remember scrabbling to get my heavy mechs, and when I did, I felt like a GOD on the battlefield.
And then I watch THIS, and flip the **** out when I see that (I'm fairly certain, anyway) ALL of TB's mechs are heavies. In the words of Iron Sheik, "F***ING BULL****!!!"
You can tell TB is enjoying himself immensely. Especially when he calls his targets out. He goes into total roleplay mode. And really, if you've ever played a Mechwarrior game before, get this. It's amazing. Even for nostalgia only, but it's also a good game.
µTorrent, Daemon Tools
Oh, TB.
May he Rest in Peace.
TotalBiscuit, The Cynical Brit Sorry for all the hatful and hurtful comments and posts that you receive on a daily basis. No one deserves that, especially you since you're providing a service for gamers. I totally understand you pulling back from interacting with viewers. From all of us real fans, we all wish the best for you. Just wanted to tell you that. Thank you for all that you do.
I wish they added this game to steam, I'd definitely get it then.
"Skip to gameplay"
Thank you so much.
I've been enjoying MechWarrior: Online quite a bit, the only problem being that it's practically the only MechWarrior game you can play on modern systems.
MechWarrior: Needs DOSBox
MechWarrior 2: Also needs DOSBox
MechWarrior 3: Refuses to work
MechWarrior 4: Free release no longer available because of PGI copyright bullshit.
MechWarrior: Living Legends: No longer being developed due to shitty ass copyright bullshit.
MechWarrior: Online: The only one that is easy to play on modern systems.
So if I could have a non-MMO MechWarrior game to play (maybe if GOG.com got MechWarrior 2 and 3 released on their site) I would be happy
First map reminded me of fallout new vegas:D. Fallout New Vegas with Mechs. Holy shit life complete.
It's turning into WoT; which is what Mack(Mackscorner) said when they started selling MC consumables. They basically sell golden modules now, in addition to unique Premium variants.
This game looks good... although I hear bad things about the pay for mechs stuff
The ppc kill effect looks awesome, like it blasts straight through the opponent.
So do you have to pic a house alignment or is it automatically assigned? Or can you just be a Mercenary?
You are automatically entered as "lone wolf." You can go to your online profile to change it to any of the factions as well as "Mercenaries."
MrSpecialKTJ Draconous Combine one of them?
Yes it is
MrSpecialKTJ Hot diggity!
You can be a Lone Wolf or pick a house alignment from the website
It's funny, while watching this I keep catching myself trying to press the steering keys. lol
this.... game..... looks...... AWESOME!!
"Red makes your mech go faster"
It's a reference to the orcs in Warhammer 40k lore if you didn't get the joke.
Cool vid guys! I used to regard the old mech warrior games almost as a religion lol. I've been out of the loop for a very long time. The last MW I played was mercenaries. That was what.. almost 20 years ago? Have there been more recent games made and if so what kind of following do the have.
18:59 Seeing Ceasar III on TBs desktop makes me a happy man.
every time the guys start calling you "TB" i immediately start thinking "Tuberculosis" and that's just bad...real bad...
damn my medical knowledge to hell.
Would love for this to be a mini series :P you and joe running around in big stompy mechs getting destroyed by randoms. Would be fun :D
If I hear Biscuit say "evasive maneuvers" one more time I'm going to punch myself in the face.
I really like this combo of TB, AJ and two experts involved with the game
Since the Clans launched BEWARE! This game is now purely pay-2-win. Over 4k matches on my account and it's gone downhill in a major way.
This game is tons of fun!
It is easy to gather enough credits for your first one or two mechs and equipment.
The first 4 Mechsbays (character slots) are free, after that you buy them for about 1,5 euro. Old mechs can be sold back for 50%.
Ignore the haters, this game has shown steady improvement over the past year. It has been BETA so all sort of game play mechanics were tested and polished. I guess that's where some of the comments come from. (ppl expected a finished product, which it wasn't)
Been playing this game for a few weeks, have run the repair tool 3-5 times in this very short period because the fucking game keeps crashing. It's good for a few days after repair, then the same or a new error cause the game to crash :|
The hitboxes for the terrain in this game is fucking horrible. With lighter mechs you really notice that there's some serious problems with the "netcode". Also this game needs voip since it's really teamwork oriented, or dependant I should say, and also ADD A DAMN FOV - slider! You can change it with a user.cfg file in the game folder but the default FOV is horrible.
I like the concept but the implementation is kind of depressing...
A lot of the mechs have that feature. It started with the Jaegermech, and I believe they're slowly going through and adding this feature to older mechs as well.
SRMs with an Artemis? Why would you need an Artemis? Half the time if you're using SRMs, you'll be close enough where accuracy wouldn't matter!
Red makes your mech go faster, but it stands out more so you're more likely to get pulled over by a police mech
i was so excited to play this game when i heard about it... but damn was it boring. great graphics. but no missions? no atmosphere? just some deathmatch type lame crap. they should have made campaigns and shit like mechwarrior 2 had. mw2 remains the greatest title of the entire genre because it had ATMOSPHERE. it really felt exciting to be in the mechwarrior universe. this has nothing substantial whatsoever. so disappointing.
Can be hard to hide with it on, too - that drone has a pretty bright red light on it, after all. If the obstacle is high enough to hide the 'mech, but not to hide the drone, that guy you're trying to flank is gonna know you're coming. If you can see them with third-person, they can see your drone.
This game looks like shit compared to Hawken XD
Putting an air freshener and hula girl in a mech? That's pretty much a must for any vehicle I own XD
Hawken>MWO
Agreed. You both had a cool dynamic with Phil and Garth playing this game. Some of the most fun team footage.
Warning: 90% of this video they dont speak english.
I got me an acr-576 with two 457-djg and some probe95s in the model 457-djgt which is like the rjs-586 except with parts of the 467-loer
Anything that has do with fighting at night is just awesome, I feel right at home hunkered down in that environment
This game has turned into worthless trash, stay away...far away.
no sir it most certainly did not
The city map is one of the best scale-wise, it really looks like a disaster movie. As for the cover, there are plenty of large objects in the world that can be used, I don't think that's a real problem.
But what I would've liked the most is for the weapons to have more kick to them: sound effects that make you realize how powerful your weapons are, lazers vaporizing the air around them and so on.
Right now it feels mostly like you're playing with toys ;_;
Wow this game fucking sucks. I played MW3 for like 2 years (online at BattleZone back then in 2001). That was alot of fun but his crappy joke of an attempt just sucks big ass. It is 100% pay to win as you can not get any mechs or weapons beside the trial versions without buying ingame coins, can not even go into mech lab unless you pay, you even need to buy Zoom wtf! The physics are shit no more knocking over mechs with missiles? come on where is the fun in this shit? Standing in water doesn't cool your mech? And hey, we have 2014, why the fuck cant you destroy buildings, you straight run thru trees? Interaction with environment? That was possible in the 90's already! What's with repair service? Yeah wait until you are killed then pay for it.... And what about different game modi like light mechs only, stock mech only? In the game you are shot down by rich boats in seconds with your trial crap
Someone else who remembers Phantom Crash!
I sunk an unnatural amount of hours into that game. It's one of about 2 XBOX games I still own and play.
well, I'm hooked
thanks TB and Joe, you've added another timesink to my library
I find it difficult too since the only indication of which way your legs are facing seems to be the line on your minimap. Is there no hud indicator? This seems very wrong.
Seeing TB running around and screaming in his Commando = Welcome to Light Mech piloting. Hectic, fast, and your butt will do all sorts of clenching.
"you use the jumpjets" wise words from a wise man
That was awesome! You gotta set up more footage at some point, loved this!
As others said. Hawken you can think of as a FPS, but you still gotta choose your weapons before rolling out, you have heat to manage as well. But all mechs have jump jets, you got a dodge *even in the heavies* and you respawn. Also mid fight you can repair but that leaves you vulnerable as all hell.
They've actually fixed the 3rd person mode and attached the camera to the drone, limiting how much benefit you can get out of trying to peek over corners.
It is the one clan mech modeled and working. The devs are using it to test out and balance clan tech. It has yet to be implemented into their test server or live game.
Thing is that they're picking mechs that have 3 variants within the timeline, so things like the Daboku won't be seen (at least not unless they decided to add more variants themselves - there's plenty of other mechs to do).
They have stated that eventually they may pull some weapons/mechs that aren't in the timeline (i.e. loosely follow the timeline as opposed to their 1:1 timeline).
Nice teamwork on that second match. ^^ You played well, all of you.
(Just saying, The TGS Podcast has been remade into the Polaris Network's Co-Optional Podcast, so feel free to check that out.)
Right now, it is World of Mechs.
However, they're going to add a larger wargame map and system soon. Instead of just having a battle for the sake of having a battle, there will be a galaxy map and you can capture planets for your faction.
These maps are pretty badass in detail, holy shit
"I need to manage my heat better!" - Fires the lasers...
I am so happy I love in an age where this kind of awersome is a thing.
Heavy Metal tune when you get a confirmed kill? Hell yeah!
Just a random question, but are there quadrupedal mechs? I'd love those.
"They eventually want to have every single mech in the BTU and then add more if they get that far." They only have 2 if you count hero mechs (Which are variants of existing ones) and they're lucky if they get out a new chassis once a month. Even if they did manage 2, they'd be lucky to finish a TRO. One thing I will give them is that their reseens look alot better than Catalyst's though.
Smooth Jazz Joe this needs to be a thing
I just wanna revive my fafnir. Oh Mechwarrior Mercenaries you gave me such good memories!
I think the best thing they could do is massively increase hitpoints.
The time to kill should be long enough for mechs to be capable of engaging fully (not just hugging cover) and pulling out several times without a decisive victor. This would give a greater margin for error when timing a flanking maneuver and give a greater length of time for the main body of mechs to exploit the disruption caused by an effective flank.
This looks so awesome. I don't typically go in for the types of games where competitive online play is the big draw but I am such a huge Battletech and Mechwarrior fan that I might buy into it anyway.
I don't play enough card games to agree with you, but I have always liked building things then testing they're effectiveness.
Um, no. Heat sinks provide padding against critical hits so they provide much more to the mech outside of the engine. Plus the 2x only applies to the heat sinks that are in the internal structure of the engine, not the extras you can add in the extra heat sink slots.
The problem with lasers is that they generate more waste heat the more powerful they are and if you fire them a lot it has little time to dissipate. That's one of many reasons they don't get used as weapons much IRL. The mechs must actually have a pretty advanced cooling system to maintain that fire rate.
The most useful thing a player carries from the older MW titles is familiarity with style of movement. It can be initially quite disorienting for a new player to control the direction of their sight line (torso) separately from the direction of their movement (legs).
TB mainly had trouble with his mech builds. His Highlander setup is difficult to use to its maximum damage potential. Secondly an XL engine is a must have for a Commando, by using a standard engine his speed was far too limited.
Depends on what is critted; it could be your engine which gets blown to hell; IMHO, if they've gotten through your CT armour you're already boned. Putting ammo in the arms means 1) using arms by torso twisting to shield more valuable bits gets half your mech blown off, and 2) your ammo is in one of the least armoured bits of your mech and yet one of the most shot at. And even if you don't like putting ammo in the CT, at least shove it in the legs or something! :)
Mechwarrior/Battletech was born in the same year as i was. 1984.
The last 4 pc mechwarrior games (plus expansions) also had a similar multiplayer to Mech Online(minus the micro transactions of course).
The drone also gives away your position. If your enemy is attentive then all you'll be doing is giving away your position.
in brilliant pink, considering the environs, TB is wearing a (shoot me) sticker complete with neon arrows and confetti for the enemy mechs xD
Never before has such a glorious form of warfare been witnessed by man.
why did tb allow comment voting in this video and then disable it? was it a mistake?
I'd love to see more of this, TB.
Being able to even fire these guns without melting from the heat is pretty advanced to me. Have any idea how much heat giant guns produce?
It's actually fairly easy, but I've played some of the older titles, it becomes a non issue. There are also keys to center your legs or arms, which ever you prefer. You can also play in 3rd person with F4, but it has it's drawbacks like not being able to aim your arms separately from your torso. You also lose your mini map and it deploys a drone other players can see :/. There are also two dots on the top of your screen, one moves where you look, the other stays where your legs are pointing
Haven't played MW:O recently but I know originally they weren't going to have Clan designs. Did that change?
Where do I get the lore for mechwarriors? I've played through 3 without knowing a single thing about it.
'more missiles than god - to the face'

Quite true, I made sure to get a 5D immediately when I decided to start playing with Spiders. The 5V is outright lesser, and the 5K was just something I had to put up with to progress with Spider pilot tree unlocks.
Can you use trackir to look around in the cockpit?
They've been having patches every 2 weeks with an occasional patch that would go in the next week instead of bi-weekly. They've also been running public tests for the major features (12v12, 3pv, etc. with DX11 public test soon)
You can still like when you haven't refreshed your page like I haven't
how do people see anything at long range in this game, is there a colorblind mode or something that I should be aware of?
19:30 is where the game play finally friggin starts
This was awesome! Would love to play this game and was great to see you guys have so much fun.
no this was streamed on twitch, so its a recording of twitch. if you were watching it live and your subscribed on twitch you wouldn't have seen any ad's.
1:18:52
"Oh they are shooting at me!"
"God, why is this ..."
"...that usually happends"
Definitely, I like games that focus on a certain aspect, because I can't think of one off the top of my head that does a combination of all three in a simulator-ish way.
Interesting to see the same game played through both TB's and Joe's channel
Awesome slew of matches, guys!
Even with the elite clan trash they're running through Mechwarrior Online, it's still incredible.
You seem to forget that I've been following this game since it was announced.
I've been waiting for this Video for months
Finaly it's here!
I'd love to see more of this, TB. You & Joe have great rapport.
MechWarrior Onlines biggest issue is the fact it uses table top damage values, without table top accuracy values. You can put 100% of your fire on one pixel at any distance with any non-scatter weapon. Drop off may lower the damage, but this still leads to situations where a single shot can cripple or kill your mech outright and you have 0 ability to do anything about it. there needs to be convergence variation between weapon types and mount locations.
He doesn't re-enable them, they just aren't disabled for the first x minutes.
That day is rapidly approaching for me as well, especially with TB's comment page.
