Do not stop making content for this game developers. MW5 is a real gift for a fan of the BattleТech universe.
I would argue it needs less battletech and more mechwarrior. I love the series but I had hoped it would continue the story of mechwarrior 4. Every game since has insisted on going pre mW4 despite 4 being the king of the entire mech warrior series. I love mecha but the inner sphere pre 2049 is a society waiting to die as their tech dies out. I want to know what happens after the clans inject star league tech back into the galaxy.
@@heavymetallabrat there’s tons of books about that. It’s generally not a popular era with the fan base.
@@heavymetallabrat someone doesn’t remember The Helm memory core lmao , and clans are annoying plot devices I would much prefere seeing the Periphery uprising the Amaris Civil war and the all or nothing fighting of the first succession wars
With the Clans and their advanced toys comes quick death especially in a real time simulation of the game as they punch far heavier and faster than the standard 3025-3049 era tech. Even watching turn based Battletech battles last a short time and he who wins initiative with the better gear usually wins hands down.
@@dc-4ever201 Yes but in my experiece stock build are garbage , i use alot of Megamek and even if i restrict myselfe to SLDF Tech i can quite Easely beate most Clan designs of 3070 or beyond (Not Much experience with Ilclan ear shit and Republic tech but they dont seem to change much )
I’m just happy you guys still support the game and keep cranking these out. Thank you.
And oh my lord, MORE MELEE? Why yes, I’m already sold, look at those swords.
In all likelihood, this will be the last one. The parent company is shunting PGI's devs to fucking Elder Scrolls Online.
@@Servellion I can't believe they're favouring that ancient turd over MechWarrior! 😡
@@Servellion You mean LOTR: Online?
@@Razgriz_01 What are you talking about?
@@Servellion You said Elder Scrolls Online.
It was actually Lord of the Rings: Online that was rumored the devs of MW5 were being moved to. But they're saying its just a rumor and the devs are sticking to MW5.
In light of PGI not being dispersed to other projects as I'd heard in rumors, I really do hope to see something of the Clan Invasion. Yes, it's a big undertaking, but i honestly can't think of a better answer to Clan ER bullshittery than a Banshee or any other mech walking up and going "I CAST FIST" and lamping the Clanner straight in the jaw.
I cast wrecking ball , take that clanner
Out of curiosity, how far along the timeline is mw at right now? Is TSM out yet?
@@chocolatesundae8947 in MW5? it ends around 3049ish more or less , just before the clans make to the innersphere.
Triple Strength Myomer seems like an option then. If you want awesome melee, TSM’s the way to go. Boosts damage, running speed but you’re totally vulnerable to a certain type of missile ammo. Accessible to Davion and Capellan units?
@@chocolatesundae8947 well sadly not in the base game , but thats nothing mods can't fix
hatchetman is one of my favorite mechs, can't wait for this
They need the Axeman
I can see some of the MWO leaking through with the animated skin reveal, and there being only one new mech makes he pack feel a bit anemic, but putting in melee animations for pretty much every machine with at least one hand is going above and beyond. Great looking DLC!
But can we DUEL AX?!?!
Also, SHEILDS WHEN?!?!
Is this even multiplayer yet?
@@mk6315 Isn't that MWO?
@@DonaldWWitt I cant get MWO on a ps4 :(
@@derkrampus9986 any pvp? Lance on lance combat like?
Really looking forward to this, I do hope that piranha decides to include the Crusader into the mech line up.
Sadly I think it's just the hatchman
Crusader is the one being added to MWO
Crusader. That’s the mech that borrowed the design of Macross’ full armor valkyrie right? Missile boat that’s mostly screwed once it uses up it’s ammo.
Clan invasion DLC. This better be funding that!
heres to hoping or at the very least the first wave and do it in waves like how they released the mechs in MWO
I'd easily pay some good money for a Clan Invasion DLC. I want my MadCat. D:
@@Syenthros Ohh ho ho! put a Madcat in my hands. And i shall drink the blood of the Jade chickens and Smoky cats like it's fine wine.
Make it an expansion instead of a small DLC.
FedCom civil war would be fun too.
3 new biomes is welcomed. Good to see devs supporting the game in any form.
'Buy loot shares in salvage screen' really should become vanilla!
Finally someone got it right from the base game. There was ALWAYS melee in Battle tech. I still have the old gamebooks. A mech with hand actuators could pick of a tree or girder to use as a weapon. The ones with gun arms could just bash.
I remember reading how at Atlas used a locust to smash a Wasp... Good times.
Thank you for this and the hard work that went into it. We love and appreciate you all. Now that melee is officially official. Bring us a Solaris VII expansion!!!
Sincerely,
Everybody
I am here for the long haul. I am a founder for Mechwarrior online. Hell I played battletech as a game tester at Poly Con in the late 80s. Got first place out of 30 player tournament. I was hooked I played every video game of Mechwarrior. I am a huge huge fan. thanks for bringing this game out. Please keep the content coming. Shaking my head....Melee in Mechwarrior/Battletech...just wow.
I love Hatchetman; I ran a Hatchetman in Battletech the turn based game for the PC; he destroys almost any full strength mech in 3 turns in melee alone, and almost one shots any weakened or damaged mech. Melee is brutal when mechs have the weapons and gear for it
Just a wild guess, missed an opportunity to introduce Solaris VII gameplay.
So excited ! Not quite as excited for this as I was for Kestrel Lancers, but still excited!
Finally, now I can engage my enemies at the optimal IS range bracket!

The most honourable form of combat
*I CAST FIST!*
Piranha, you guys are doing some great work on Mechwarrior 5. Please consider Solaris VII as an update/DLC.
Now we need a dedicated Solaris Biome for coliseum-style matches, especially with the new melee options. That would be killer!
Solaris, however, shouldn't be just one biome. Solaris has several arenas that can be configured with any biome that is needed for the current competition, only that it will have walls at the end and will, at times, be a bit more artifical looking.
I dunno bout y’all but I think there’s gonna be more melee in this dlc
(Looks at Hatchetman) I remain unconvinced.
I dunno... I think I saw a gun next to that sword...
@@adamrogers6227 I mean, this is the inner sphere. If you're close enough to melee, you're in optimal range for Disco Deathmode.
Hatchetman! Hatchetman!
Cannot wait to see you play it!
Wow! Amazing! Love Mech Warrior! 🤗
oh yes I do
Excited to see there is still support for the game and slowly integrating some mods.
I always said the game has such HUGE potential that isn't being used, either by lack of time or funding. Some awesome mods out there that could easily be added by the devs into the base game, like Pilot ovehaul, Coyote missions, vonBiomes, unlocking the mechlab either the more "traditional" way like Yet another mechlab or adding all the features from Merctech... going one step further and being able to drop 2 lances, field some vehicles and air support... extending the timeline to the Clan invasion, adding Clan mechs and weapons... so many possibilities.
Anyhow, the melee side of things is more of a "shit hits the fan" aspect for me, unless the Solaris tournaments get added. Otherwise, on the battlefield I prefer the "see first, shoot first, kill first" approach, using cover and modern armored warfare tactics. Enemies rarely get close enough.
But props to devs and modders for keeping the game alive and relevant.
This might be very good for taking buildings down and city fighting needless to say I'm gonna put a melee weapon on most of my fast assault & heavy mechs and still pop cockpit/torso/legs with my ballistic annialators 4 max level heavy rifles at stand off range. I'm not kidding 1-2 of those in one spot will rip almost all the armor off and 3-4 will either cripple or remove the limb or kill the mech out right and that's to 90 toners.
Agreed that melee might help save some ammo taking down bases.
But yeah, 4 high tier heavy rifles on KGC-CAR with some backup SRMs and ballistic cantina upgrades takes care of almost anything in one strike, 800m out.
@@jnmason6283 for some reason I cant stand the king crabs cabin motion and lack of visibility, but I have that one rigged with med rifles an 2 lrm 20 lv5's for my fast lance.
This looks amazing!! Cant wait!!
You guys deserve a lot of love
I want some more campaign missions.... something like the final mission of the base campaign. That was great.
I like what I see and for the price. But I would be lying if I said wasn't disappointed to not see a new mission type, something as simple as a "big team battle" or an arena mode, or something I would quite like a "soldier mode" were you go solo with whatever mech you want. But you don't get any controllable allies maybe a full Lance (and a haft if the ai is bad) to back you up while you got to go into a full 2 lances of enemies. No crazy mission objectives maybe something as simple as kill their leader before they kill you/yours, no reset.
Anyone of these and I would be over the moon, doesn't even need to be overly scripted. Just something straightforward
Very very nice to see, eagerly awaited!
I am so excited to get melee weapons. Thank you so much.
Melee A+ | Trailer A+ , trailer sound really hit the nail on the head and sliced it
I think I just shed a tear...I love this franchise, I have since MechWarrior 2 black knight and mechassault. As well as the battle tech books and lore this IP could totally kill it today, but as long as it's been out there has been content drought since before the 1st update, and I was excited for the 2nd dlc update. Didn't expect there to be 3rd but it looks like so much fun.
Black knight was MW4, but MW2 is still king in this series
Just got into this not too long ago,I had only ever played mechassault before, happy to see it’s not a dead game
ah yes. Mechassault, the game that got me into Battletech. Followed by MW4....good times.......good times.
Really just wish that we could get a true co op mode where they bring their own mechs in
Me too! My buddy has been struggling and I know I could fuck shit up with my Atlas if I could just bring it along.
I just wish the co-op would allow for full access to my 1 billion C-Bills-worth of Cold Storage. No joke. Would be a lot more fun if my lancemates could pick and choose their own 'mechs rather than have to... There is a long list of things I would change. Whenever I join someone else's game, I almost always turn into the mechanic. I have the mod that removes tonnage restrictions for missions, but still. Everyone has their favorite 'mech and style. Imagine a full lance of Nightstars, for example. My favorite lance is me in my Jenner missileboat and three custom King Crabs. UACs for days, with those suckers. (contented sigh)
@@Deridus yeah been having a blast with the up close laser boat battlemaster while i have my heavy LRM boats dropping missles while i front line.
@@224224josh I distrust the Battlemaster. I'd rather use a Thunderbolt.
That looks amazing it's been a while but finally getting to the point where you could with mods have a similar experience to battletech advanced.
Mobile suit Gundam or Armored core would be a nice mod
@@AtiCrossfireX I still want the full craziness of a 40K game like this with tanks, knights, and titans. Ahh… the things we can dream of..
Fantastic, love it!
What a lovely surprise!
I didn't dare to hope but there it is!
Oh boy, this ig going to be crazy,........and I love it! :D
Nice! Glad the game is still getting new stuff!
VERY VERY EXCITED
Whatever you guys are paying your audio department/musicians?
DOUBLE IT.
Very excited.
omg i cant wait lets go boi!
I cant wait!!!!!
Main thing holding MW5 back is the co-op with a better co-op system this game could be brilliant.
Honestly don't know why co op people can't bring in their own mechs. I'm just to afraid of randos messing with my builds
@@bombomos just Save the Builds , randoms can’t delete weapons and co and u can just load ur builds
Amazing
Trailer music is awesome
Can't wait to see what Rougetech does with this. I love the hatchetman.
Let's goooooooo!
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. Hope the VR mod will be made compatible with this!
This isn't even out and I am gonna go ahead and ask for more DLC. Pls don't abandon MW5!
These weapons look sick
Introducing
How to Kill a Game Off with Nonsense"!
Woop woop hatchetman time
love the content drop so stoked, just waiting for a clan storyline/mechs cause those were the stories that got me into the series
I miss the "gladiator fights" in the arenas in MW4:Mercs... "Here comes Spector!" I miss fighting different levels of bouts and mech types. I did that for hours. That commentator was funny. He will be missed.
You know, sometimes it feels like the world is weighing me down and nothing's going right and all I want to do is sit in bed and let everything drift away. But then someone slaps a sword in the hand of a Centurion and everything makes sense again.
Hatchetman vs Centurion... A match made in Solaris VII
I can only think of Yen Lo Wang. Come to think of it, Solaris was where the Mercenary Review Board was based. Heavy Wolfnet intrigue there. I remember an old storyline about a Davion agent with a Hatchetman attempting to infiltrate the Dragoons by posing as a merc thinking that the Dragoons would be interested in an IS original mech. Jaime managed to trick the agent out of his Hatchetman without bringing the agent into the fold by offering to trade it up for one of their custom Archers. I wonder if we’ll see side stories like that.
Definitely hatchetman a must get dlc
I've never been much a fan of melee in my QUASI-realistic giant stompy robots but I do want to support this game and the hatchetman is a cool lookin mech so....
Love the melee focused update. We need clans though too… can you guys deliver?
That would end up being an update on a much larger scale than any of the other updates and it would be smarter to just make a new mechwarrior at that point
Nope. PGI's devs are getting moved to fucking ESO by the company that bought them.
Don't care too much about the melee stuff but more content is always welcome. Bring it on! :)
now we just need this trailer song extended so I can go around stomping and slashing to an epic track
Love this game!
HYPE!
Yes please!!!!
I definitely know this game is going to be more awesomer and I can't wait to play as the hatchet man battle Mech and collecting all the heroes in that dlc
June 8th???? Holy shit! Yes! I thought it was later this year. This is awesome!
Amazing! Maybe one day we'll get Axeman!
Who's ready for some metal splitting, oil spurting, mech cqb my dudes!!! Love the trailer love the soundtrack I'm hyped
WOW!
Over tonnage, switch after death instead of automatic mission failure with three other Lance mate that are still active and combat capable to press on. Dream come true. Hell yeah. O7
Nice.
Like a good warhammer mech
This game just won’t stay down xD
Glad to see more content coming, a lot of these will be much appreciated QoL updates
Need moar hype Mr. Katz!
Nice dlc And game i have pre-order 2019 Cool Game to play with
friends
Mech 5 is so very close to being a legendary contender with it's predecessors. What we truly need is a massive content expansion that adds new enemies, new buildings, more enemies, more mission types, changeable territory control, buy more or a bigger dropship, build or buy a homebase, more challenges, better optimization with graphics, to adjust graphics easier in the menu, make every map as large as they can be, better lance controls, the ability to control and have more than one lance in a mission, chose different drop types: long walk, danger close, drop pod, the ability to pre-plan a mission Rainbow Six style with wavepoints and created paths given to lance teams, have autopilot, different vision modes, farther zoom 4x and higher, civilian and civilian vehicles moving, infantry, the ability to destroy dropships, more enemy types, larger battles, engage multiple lances, have three or four way fights between different enemies, honestly the best place to look it taking the best ideas and features from Mech 2, 3, and 4. And of course, have the Clan invasion, Mason's dad is a clanner for sure. The more the better
Im glad the devs are still working on MW5. Bought it day one, it felt like a half baked beta, then played a few years later it was a lot better, but still felt a bit empty. This June Im in for the 3rd run, which could be the best one yet. Keep it going 🔥🔥🔥
*HATCHETMAN WOOOOOOO!!!*
Atlas with Battle Axe - now it's an epic conclusion to classic Battletech picture.
Hatchetman is my boiiii!
That was beautiful, I can't wait to play it.
Looks like a morbin good time
Hahahaa - FINALLY built out the Hatchetman. Too late for me, but that's awesome: it looks great.
but but most of the mechs are dead long before i even get into that close Range
I will buy any new content for this game. Hope it gets continued support
Being able to go over tonnage is all that was required for me to pick it up again.
Totally agree. If I want to make a SteinerScout Lance and go visit some level 1-3 missions to grind some quick cash, then, sucks to be them. I want to bring to the fight what I own ya know.
31st century and still no second lance deployment option?
Go on......
Time to get your Solaris on!
Its alive!
Interesting. I wish they introduce clans already in MW5. Why they don't expand the story and clans ???
Just the era, I guess. The 3025 starter point means they have about a quarter of a century to go at before the clans Hove into view.
I hope they do too, but clan stuff also takes a sledgehammer to any idea of balance because its *SO* much better.
They are holding clans back until we all pony up another $80 in three years time.
And apparently, that's only *if* their previous DLC's/offerings sell well.
This does not sound like a healthy way to do business.
@@malcontender6319 So they would charge us 50-80 $ just for one big massive expansion that bring us Clans and probably more inner sphere mechs. phew who would buy that? Nobody on that price.
Looks like Piranha finally said "Screw the rules." The thought of an Atlas with a battleaxe should be enough to make even bloodnamed clanners sweat.
Aside from the dlc, I would also like the song for this trailer.
Finally
good switching mechs at death. =D
I got this dlc and let me say: ITS AMAZING
10/10
Will reccomend
5 stars
Tons of fun
So cheap
Amazing stuff
👏👏👏👏
Clan invasions coming soon ya'll! This mini expansion is pretty exciting still!
I have 400 million C-bills saved up just for the new hero mechs and platforms, can't wait!
Not really into melee, but new biomes and Battlemechs will always be welcomed.
cool... get some proper Mech Fu going on! now I can't help but picture that one Battletech animation parody of the Steiner Assault scouts where a fucking Dragon pulls out a fucking Katana and gets bitch slapped by an extremely German Atlas with a subway nunchuck. it's definitely something I can see a Kuritan Madman do with their Dragon.
Was hoping for clan invasion but melee update is nice.
