I LOVE running the Mad Dogs! I’ve got 4 or 5 of them and have them all set up differently. LRMs, Ballistics, SRMS, mixes. I LOVE them!! I was finally able to find a Timby as well. I would love to have Bushwackers in the game though too. Those are my absolute favorites. JUST above the Mad Dogs.
MW5 is slowly becoming one of my favorite games. The mods for it keep pushing the bounds of the game and bringing more replay value. However, one thing always seems to irritate me about this game. Ryana and her constant nagging. If only there was a way to remove her or replace her with the old "Betty" computer from previous MW games...
Didn't Clan mechs also have the option to display a condensed 360-degree view super-imposed on their cockpit? I seem to remember that from the Jade Phoenix trilogy or something.
Clans lore wise never cared for close in fighting and did not like punch and kicking other mechs, They found that going hand to hand with Mechs was barbaric and not the Clan way. But I doing love the Mad Dog (aka (IS) Vulture),
some of that logic dont make sense to me. its kinda like klingons from star trek, they were "honorable warriors" but had to use cloaking.... but clan mechs accel at damage output and that tracks.
I like running me in a Marauder with 2 mad dogs escorting and maybe something for longrange missle bombardment or peppy litl high speed scout rounding out the 4th slots
well if you wanna dig into lore clan mechs where not designed for melee attacks as they where all about using the weapons in 1 on 1 honorable combat so, that's why the mad dog arms look so fragile where as the marauder was built with reinforced weapon pods to bash your enemy's cockpit in while you waited for the ppc heat to dissipate, now you need to with real friend as your team, that's when tag and other systems really start to shine, get someone in that kitfox with a tag then watch those art-IV 15 racks just strip heavy and assault mechs like crazy, I do find it harder to play solo now tho so pros and cons I guess lol
They're the same. A lot of Clan mechs are called a different name by IS people, beginning when an Inner Sphere pilot encountered a Clanner for the first time, piloting a Timber Wolf. His targeting computer couldn't identify the foreign machine, but because the Timber Wolf's profile is similar to that of a Marauder (MAD) and Catapult (CAT) the targeting computer kept switching back and forth between MAD and CAT, earning it the moniker of Mad Cat in the Inner Sphere. Throughout the Clan invasion, people had to make up their own names for Clan mechs until more was learned about the invaders. I believe the Mad Dog earned the name "Vulture" because of its tendency to stay out of the fight lobbing missiles, then moving in at the end to finish off weakened enemies with its lasers--kind of like how actual vultures pick apart carcasses after stronger predators make the kill.
clanner scum lol, nothing but love. Centurian is mine. wish someone would mod in the CN10 55 ton model. (and work with all new dlc, there is an outdated mod that adds it.)
The only real problem i had with it was the constantly respawning enemys. It killed the entire game for me. Once I realized they would never stop coming, i turned the game off and have never played it again.
I always like the Timber Wolf myself. It had, in my opinion, the best balance of attributes.
yeah agreed :)
Did you forget to count "cost" as an attribute, by chance?
Pyre Light mission had the best music. I remember playing it for the first time, it just felt so immersive and mysterious.
Vultures are the best, from all the way back in the Virtual World days!
totally agree!

I think the latest update of this mod added the bushwhacker. I haven't looked at it yet though.
@@RaySavagesMechwarrior OH SNAP!! I’ll have to check it out!
Mad Dog is my favorite from an old game....MechAssault 2

agreed. Sometimes it is that way.
1000% yes.

Not just clan mechs, that was standard practice. Either as a condensed view, or in some cases it was a feature of the neuro helmet.

OMG that MUSIC!
There is a "your mom" joke for every clan mech..
5:38 that laser hit nothing, lmao.

I agree, punching should damage the weapons unless strengthened..

Why is this Clan Mech running around only with IS Weapons? Makes no Sense man xD
Isn't that a Vulture that you're piloting or is the Mad Dog a variant of the Vulture?
