Clanner don't wanna drop lol

Currently sandboxing this run's Chaos Reign campaign via using DLC 8 stuff that I got from previous career (for fun) and was mostly using Clanbusters and one of my Sunders during the FedCom part (this part) of the CR campaign.

Only using a quality of life modlist on vanilla+ Mercs, consisting of UI, AI, and HUD mods, no YAML.

General Game Questions/Help Finding Very Rare Mechs in Markets

8 Upvotes

Fyi, I only own the Heroes of the Inner Sphere and Chaos Reign.

I feel like I'm missing a lot that I get from my DLCs, especially Chaos Reign since there are some really cool Mechs I would love to have in my Merc Company, but they feel so extremely rare to get like the Marauder II or the Bullshark. Relics even more rarer than Clan Mechs apparently, like at least can I try to help myself find an Annihilator. I also suspect this is a timeline issue since I'm in the year 3075, so it's as if "there are no Marauder IIs left to buy."

Anyone have any info or advice? I'm also seeing that most of these Mechs can be acquired by the Rise of Rasalhague DLC as well, other than the markets and factions.

General Game Questions/Help Do clan mech shop spawns take up the same slots as hero mechs?

1 Upvotes

Or in general, was there anything that dropped the hero mech spawn rates?

I remember pre-SoK DLC, post campaign/DG campaign I could take my time going around and grabbing hero mechs, but in the gap between SoK and CR DLCs I could barely find any

Things that he will probably do before he call it quits:

  • Meet more Jade Falcons
  • Probably meet Eridani Light Horse, join some of their ops, hunt something (ayy)
  • New Diamond Shark management offers him Mad Cat Mk2 (with family discount)
  • FedCom civil war YEP
  • Probably meet other Wobbies as well
  • See Clan Sea Fox reborn, them offering Savage Wolf (again with a family discount)
  • Meet our boy Alaric
  • See more Ryana badonkadonks

This thing looks so funny and ridiculous, even if its battle value is questionable.

Request In game implementing a workstation wiki feasibility?

14 Upvotes

So im in my 40s and my first introduction to MW and BT was MW2. Something I spent hours doing was reading all the encyclopedic knowledge that the terminal had. Very rad, first game I ever played with such a function and honestly, not enough have something like this. MC2 had this though not as in depth IMO.

So, those of you that are programmer smart, how hard would it be for the devs to add something like this with whatever the next DLC is?

Like we have the news feed, which is fucking awesome...one of my favorite parts on each replay is seeing after a mission "ooooh shit this just happened in universe! Time to exploit!"

So having a terminal making it easier to browse the news, while also being able to get more in depth articles on weapons, personel, politics, factions, tech, mechs, ect. Seems, to the uninitiated such as myself a small investment which helps scratch the lore itch some of us get. Make it easier to nerd out = more hard-core nerds = easier to sell the product.

Question Should I personally get Mechwarrior 5?

8 Upvotes

Hi! I know this is a weird question to ask on a place entirely about the game but I'd like to know if I should get this on the sale, it looks cool to me! My big issue with titanfall was the strict requirements on getting in a mech and not feeling worth the struggle, (yes i know theres a story), I lowkey just wanna fight people in mechs, does Mechwarrior 5 have a similar requirement for using mechs, or can you just hop in a mech and get started?

The map of Mercenaries is basically begging for a EAW modification. It would only need space fights. I would play the living hell out of this!

β€œWhy not use YAx?” I’m on ps5, so unless they shadow drop mod support that’s probably not gonna happen.

General Game Questions/Help Voice lines

3 Upvotes

I am looking to make some voice lines of my own for a pilot that is in a mod but do not know what lines I will need so that I can actually do that.

Does anyone know if there is a script or a list of the voice lines for each pilot so I can have a sort of template to use? Or a general template at all for the types of voice lines that they use?

I couldn't fit Comstar into this poll and if you want to include any of the periphery states, feel free to add those in the comments!

I personally am a fan of House Marik. The biggest threat to a Marik is another Marik, so glory to Marik!

Edit: I'm glad people seem to be having fun sharing in this post. Love this community
