    Anybody remember the old Mech Commander games ? Those were fun games to play back in the day .

      When I first started playing Battletech Total Warfare. I was playing Mech Commander Gold. That game was great, the cutscenes were reminiscent of the Command and Conquer era and the amount of customization before missions was excellent.

      And people managed to put MechWarrior 2: Mercs in MechCommander Omnitech, stand alone add-on of MechCommander 2.
      They also have some fun campaigns about Gray Death Legion and Wolf Dragoons.

    "The manticore is a nasty one", yeah it is, it was designed to take on battlemechs while supporting infantry with its main weapon being a Parti -Kill Heavy Cannon PPC.

      @@DoubleWhammy The Demolisher, Rommel and Patton tanks aren't as scary as you think, they are purely for urban/close range and yes while the Patton does pack an AC/10 and an LRM-5 for medium/long range that's not really all that threatening to a battlemech that has weapons that can hit targets from even longer ranges.

    "What happens when you find a mod for battletech in any game? You download it and try it out."
    -that is if you find any...wondered about something like this sometime ago though...wish there was a video showcasing mods or total conversions that turned "x" game into Battltech.
    they are rare, and abandoned. Capellan Soluton for C&C Generals comes to mind.
    as for this...gonna keep watching the video to see if it's worth the $2.99.

      Yeah I've really been enjoying it. The graphics look a lot better when you're playing. I wonder if there might be some graphics mods on the workshop that might be compatible with Rusted Warfare and the Mechwarrior: Civil War Mod. Thanks for the comment I really appreciate it.

  • @gigabad5439
    @gigabad5439 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Would be interesting if the modder could implement pilot skill level increases so they get % more accurate as they level up. But the CPU players would need behavior to baby their pilots as well.

    • @Frankslab
      @Frankslab  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Alot of C&C games have the veteran mechanic for units where they get stronger after surviving and passing a certain damage threshold. A star will usually appear over units who achieve this. The mech pilots can be saved when ejecting,
      but the amount of code to implement all of this might be a lot of work for the modder, just to implement something that wouldn't necessarily influence gameplay in this genre (RTS), that much.

  • @Draelren
    @Draelren 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Do you have a mod that makes the construction units sound like the SCV from starcraft? Or is that just ripped from the game? lol I also in the first few minutes heard the comsat station.

    • @Frankslab
      @Frankslab  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      The mod creator used SC sounds in the mod. I think it's great.

  • @Quoxozist
    @Quoxozist 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    I'm curious - does this game have actual projectile physics? at least, when you shoot at a moving target with non-seeking projectiles is there a chance to miss? can you move out of the way of incoming artillery shell sand other slow moving projectiles? or it is auto-hit the second you are in range?

    • @Frankslab
      @Frankslab  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      So if you start watching from 17:14, you will see the Mauraders I'm microing are able to dodge slower projectiles. I would have to watch closer to see if it's possible to dodge a ppc if the enemy fielded any.

    • @shittinontheceiling3474
      @shittinontheceiling3474 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      For the mod, it depends on the projectile.
      The vanilla game is mostly made up of projectiles that will follow target movement, altough some (namely most artilleries, and IIRC the battleships) have straight-going bullets. The property can be off in some mods

    • @Frankslab
      @Frankslab  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      @@nickc1425 Terrain does matter. This map that I showcased the Mod on was flat. But if you play on other maps with variable terrain elevation you'll see the mechs use JJ's (Jump Jets) they'll also walk through water and have to climb leveled terrain. Terrain will also block projectiles if your mech is behind it.

    • @josefinstalling8154
      @josefinstalling8154 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yup. There's a chance a unit could miss but that's up to the modder. You'd see them a lot in medieval themed mods or 16th-20th century mods
