Your strained eyes are filled with golden dawn that basks scorched earth with morning rays... Land filled with burning metal, craters, corpses... Flames are dying down and the heat is gradually being replaced by the freshness of the morning air. You look at the survivors that pick up the scraps. Some of them are crying. Some of them are frantically looking for something. Some of them are just standing and looking at distance with empty eyes. All covered in dirt. Bruised and scratched. Bandaged. But still alive. And then you look behind you. You see the faces of your comrades that smile back at you with faces filled with relief and fatigue. We are still alive. Yet another miraculous day of fortune we don't deserve. Your tired mind is confused with the fact that you an your friends all survived despite impossible odds. You sit down and lean your head to a chunk of metal that used to be the arm of your mech. Ripped appart and dropped here. It feels so pleasantly cold to your burnt out head. In a funny way, you feel like you are being hugged by it. You look at the distance and become aware that your mind is no longer floded with fear. The tension of your body lets go. The fatigue catches up to you and you doze out into a slumber.

This song sounds how piloting a lumbering 100 ton war machine feels.

First time Playing MechWarrior 5 and this suddenly plays on the mission where you get your first Co-Mechwarrior, I was failing the mission but i got through coz o dis hehd

2:30-2:50 is peak mechwarrior fighting music

2:21 I am the reinforcements. And I have arrived.

I remember piloting a king crab with two ac20s going into a small enemy outpost solo with 3 enemy medium mechs and some support vehicles.. just weathering the enemy fire and turning enemy mechs into piles of slag just feels sooo good.

No more sorrow intro 4:36 🤘🖤

This isn't complete without the sounds of a dropship suddenly floating down at you and artillery blasting off at the most inopportune moment.

When the previous part of the multi-mission cored your favourite urbie... You whip out the Warhammer and go in solo. It's time for judgement.

This is the iconic MW5 song for me

Your Star…warriors you’ve fought with, warriors you’ve bled with. Warriors that have slowly shuffled themselves towards extinction. They’re all dead now, dead in a backwater system on a now dead planet. You see the mushroom cloud engulfing the horizon. You realize all too well what is coming, and you accept it. The last thing you hear before the scorched air slams into your crippled Mad Dog. REACTOR CRITICAL The Smoke Jaguar Exterminatus

Am i the only one that likes to return to the starting area sometimes to Field an assault mech solo and just Destroy everything in my path? Just me? Okay

The whole OST slaps

I always loved how the OST beats somehow always synced with my mechs footsteps

This song feels strangely melancholic. It reminds me of the fact that no one listening to it right now will ever experience this far future and whatever awaits us in space. "Born too late to explore Earth, born too early to explore Space."

The background theme that starts at 1:10 sounds almost like the sped up string line from Temper Edge from the Mechwarrior 2 OST, to my ears.

*keys the ignition sequence and starts up my 60 tonne dragon DRG, along with a balanced centi a rifleman DNA, and a balanced atlas* whelp, time to go make the chimi-fu-*duck quacking sounds*-changas

Hello my friends, Mechwarriors! ♥

The man just killed it, thank you for the most badass tunes since Jeehun Hwang. Wanna ride my Orion with you mate!

You see the red dots closing in, target the heaviest thing and tell your lance to go in and you start eating the enemy, overheating every 4 targets

this song plays, The Clans Invade: Objective . . . Survive

I've certainly been missing out, time to listen on repeat for hours for the future, thank you so much for uploading the OST

No guts, no galaxy!

The full version of this song is fucking Zen. MechWarrior has had one of the best soundtracks since it's inception. MWO disappointed save one song in my opinion, but this song embodies it completely.

Absolutely the best

When paired with rhythmic stomping of a King Crab, thumping of AC20s or an HGs, roar of a Large Laser and a whirl of LRMs, this song hits *entirely different*

Based on the comments in this video, this must be where all the Steiner scout lances meet up.

TIME TO KILL KANE!!! 😤

That opening oozes comstat dropping in on a fight over lostech between a merc company and some pirate or other entity neither of whom are packing anytbing over 55 tons...and they drop a whole lance of king crabs

Love how it has some Western, "Fronteirsy" vibes, yet absolutely is heavy enough to bring to mind Mechs. Always loved the Mechwarrior/Battletech games!

At one point in the mission with the abandoned union dropships I was just staring off into the mountains in my AS7-D, God damn it was beautiful.

What I love most about the music in MW5: Mercenaries is how it often comes across as Space-Western music.

*All systems nominal.*

such a mood

This is a crime that masterpiece is played only in one story mission.

Alert! Friendly dropship has entered atmosphere. ETA dropship, 1 minute.

“I have to eject, Glory to House KURITA!”

The boss music you hear when 4 black knights drop right outside your pirate base.

Space AT&T didn’t mess around in this fight.

Jake sits in his quarters, just as he's done every single day, thinking things over and brooding in melancholy while peering at a portrait of his father. Ryana has just finished some small talk with Fahad when she decides to see Jake in his quarters. She opens the door without announcement, slowly crosses the threshold and sees Jake at his desk stiffly grasping his father's framed portrait with both hands, and an open, full bottle of red wine. Ryana speaks in a soft rasp "I had a sudden chill thinking about you always being in here alone. When-in fact-you might prefer some company." Jake continues his facade of disregard, but doesn't seem to mind Ryana's presence. She notices the unlabeled bottle is set with two glasses and approaches to pour a sip into Jake's glass. Jake absent-mindedly drags the glass nearer and then Ryana fills the other glass and takes a sip. Finally giving Ryana a subtle glance of acknowledgment, Jake takes his sip. She refills both glasses and has another sip. Jake ignores the glass and glances at Ryana with glassy eyes "I don't want revenge anymore," Jake slightly stumbles in his speech "I just want him back!" Ryana walk briskly to Jake and places a firm hand on his shoulder "I understand, commander." Jake looks back down at the portrait and quickly gulps his glass. Ryana switches her embrace to the other hand and grabs her glass for a cheerless toast "To those left behind." Jake reluctantly places the portrait on the desk and pours himself a another sip.

One of the favourite battle themes. Sure it's not as "punchy" as the other pieces of battle music but I bloody love this!

starting from 0:30, it seemed that I was listening to Tsoi.

Comstar casually losing entire lances of assault mechs to an orphan and some pilots

Man I love one shotting commandos with my nightstars gauss cannons

You either love this song because you hear it so much in MW5 or you love it because Sven Van Der Plank uses it as his outros for History of BattleTech.

Remember, it's only a Warcrime, if it gets reported ;)

2 mad 2s, 1 Crab, and a helluva lot of LRMs from my catty. One hell of a way to start a gunfight exceeding 80 tons

00:03 Attention. Prepare for Battlemech departure 00:05 Warning. Hangar doors opening. Stand clear REACTOR ONLINE

This song reminds me of my absolute favorite mech in the game. Watching assault mechs confidently charging at me before they start limping as my KGC-CAR Carapace with 4 LBX 10s rip their leg off in a few salvos will never get old. Salvage heaven!
