      PuswadBelch Robot Jox was the worse "mech" movie I've seen. Pacific Rim on the other hand, was awesome, and coupled with the--- and I quote, "unique mythos, history, characters and stories that deserve to be told, seen and enjoyed on the big screen." As odojang had said, yeah, I'd like to see a few movie done. If a T.V. company can pull off what'll be a lot of CGI, a T.V series would be better.
      But hey, after Microsoft(headed) got a hold of this title and then shelved it, it's been downhill since. Now the "hidden" is owned by some small time anime company, and we got this poor bastard of a title called Mechwarrior online which after something like a hundred patches, still haven't got proper joystick support.

      Alain Archambault Robotjox was okay for it's days when it came out although not a great movie even then and the story has no relation to the actual MW/BT at all. Still, one of the first efforts to portray piloted robots in live action.(La version Française était pas si mal non plus ;))

      @alainarchambault2331 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      odojang (Robotjox) Granted, in as far as the technology was at the time, but the plot stunk to high heaven. The "Bolo-saw", would've never worked. And the Russian bad guy suddenly ceasing his attack at the end, just because the stranded American pilot says, "We should be friends". Someone was smokin' weed the day the script was wrote.
      There was a brief animated series based on the mechwarrior universe a while back.

      @Shenaldrac 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      ***** No, I didn't. That's... really strange. To have an IS outfit equipped entirely with Clan mechs, even if it looked like "only" a lance. I mean yeah the Sea Foxes/Diamond Sharks/Sea Foxes sell to everyone but they don't sell cheap. And you'd think a whole lance worth of clan mechs could handle, what was there, an Uziel, and another 2-3 IS mechs?
      Then again, the dude's brilliant plan to buy time was basically just "run out, then use, what, a single MP's worth of movement while firing missiles and a few shots from my LPLs while all the enemies concentrate fire on me." You're in a Vulture, dude. You've got thin armor, keep moving and using the LPL's to-hit bonus to keep at range and fast while taking apart the IS mechs. Yeah, I know he was trying to buy time, not win, but you'll buy a lot more time by being evasive and a hard target. If your goal is to buy time then you shouldn't be trying to actually take out the invaders, you should be prolonging the fight as much as possible, keeping mobile as I mentioned.
      Also, that ammo explosion shouldn't have destroyed the entire mech, what with Clan CASE and all.

      I'm aware, I'm more meaning the fact that even after the Jihad, hell until fairly recently in the timeline (3140s compared to the 3060s) Clan mechs were still incredibly rare in Inner Sphere forces. Even the Great Houses didn't use entire lances of Clan mechs except in their most elite units, and as I've pointed out, that lance didn't exactly act very competent. I'm guessing they used a lance of Clan mechs primarily for the fanservice value, but it was still a bit jarring to me.

    I really enjoyed the film presentation. I don't mean to stray from the original universe but this reminded me a lot of the cutscenes from the first Command & Conquer. A perfect mixture of news snippets and action scenes to help construct the story in a realistic perspective. Great work! Had an awesome director!

    A Battletech movie worthy of being called "The BattleTech Movie"? Now it could be done, but it has to be done from the concept novel, evolved through a light novel format, turned over to manga teams for the storyboard and character design and then live acted in front of a blue screen . . . BEFORE you allocate special for the effects budget. Why do I say this? Because to take something this deep and give it insufficient coverage, vis a vis its vast and broad backstory, is to cheapen it till it looks and feels no different from all the other brain garbage out there. It'll have to be somewhat like a a series, but more of a 12 hour movie divided into convenient one hour segments for general consumption. As for the plots and subplots, Kung Fu movies are redolent with them; revenge, rivalry, secret missions, failed coups, invasions, assassinations . . . mesh a bunch of those together in the background against the panorama of the Inner Sphere in, say, 3030 or so, to keep the mind occupied while you tell your Heroic Epic in the foreground. I know it's gonna be a headache, but I'll take the romantic lead role. It doesn't pay as well as Arena Mech Jockey, but I get to the bars before they close.

  • @JuergenGDB
    @JuergenGDB 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I agree with everyone here.. maybe a petition of sorts to get a film started with some good advisers so they get the story right... A good MechWarrior Movie.. not Pacific Rim... but a real mechwarrior story. You could begin with the movie where the Star League leaves.. then the next 10 minutes or so with tell the story of the succession wars.. and begin a story with the Clan invasion... go from there. Pretty sure a successful movie would beg for more.

    Its odd how davion / Stainer are fielding a absurd amount of Clan/Lostech for that timeline. I remember when this game came out and kinda hating it. Felt like they dumbed down the mech customization tried to turn it into a FPS shooter. Multiplayer almost always boiled down to everyone just stacking PPC's and sniping.

    • @odojang
      @odojang  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's why I never care about PvP in any game; it's either pay to win or the one built and/or playstyle that rules them all; if not both. It makes a game quickly bland and boring to me.

  • @america8706

    Played 1, 2, and 3 as a kid as well as countless hours of the xbox game with a friend. I was always on the lookout for people with mech warrior on pc when I was a kid because I didn’t have a pc of my own and every on e and awhile I did find someone. I could either watch or play for hours just entirely engrossed in the environment and my young mind trying to grasp the concept of piloting one of these titanic beasts. It was a great time and I’m really saddened that I haven’t seen more singleplayer mech warrior type games lately. Luckily mech warrior 5 comes out this year! Lets hope that it lives up to the standard and doesn’t follow the path of mech warrior online.

      That's because a walking tank looks so cool, but it is a completely asinine concept, even if we had the uber-tech to make them move as well as human bodies, especially despite their size (the square-cube law in physics alone is a huge problem). Not to mention legs are a huge liability and not the most efficient mode of locomotion, especially with only two.
      Real war machines are as compact, low profiled and simplistic as possible, so as to offer maximum durability, minimum target profile and ease of fabrication and maintenance. And they use threads for all terrain capabilities or wheels for speed and energy economy.
      Battletech is fantasy. Let's enjoy it as such.

      +Kidzin One of them was a medium mech, the Centurion. Both of the light mechs in question ( Raven, Commando ) are known to carry a larger than average payload for their weight. The Commando specifically is designed to be used exactly like it was in the cutscene. All hits were to the rear and that's more than enough firepower to take out a 75 ton heavy.
