Reviewing some of the comments I want to add some points here. #1: Since doing this video I have progressed as an artist in many aspects and have better hardware nowadays I would do a lot of things differently than back in 2018/19. #2 A remake only offers a limited number of possibilities for changes, especially by sticking to the original soundtrack (which was a concious decision, because I love it). I agree that there are controversial topics like one-shotting an atlas and why was the Victor (originally Zeus) was left back etc. These were not my choices but the choices done by the original creators of the intro. With all that said, I want to thank everyone who viewed this work, stopped by and commented, whether positive or seemingly negative or with constructive criticism, it is highly appreciated. It shows me that creating artwork for the Battletech universe, which is one of my passions, finds some resonance. That's why I'm spending my free time on creating this stuff. Have a good day!
Beautiful work. The question is, are you going to tackle the famous mw2 mercs battle of Tukkayid end video? I think I speak for all mechwarrior fans here when I say it may have made a few of us shed a tears....
@@tplambert I was indeed planning to do it, but then got to work on another exciting project called Hired Steel: th-cam.com/video/12o4B9z2bD8/w-d-xo.html
Something I've noticed about the intros to the older MW games: The weapons are either totally ineffective or they one-shot their targets. Still, happy memories!
Funnily enough, the ballistics in MW2 Mercs were buggy and often didn't register hits. So when the colonel fires her AC5, it doing nothing kind of makes sense.
@@shaider1982 well, Ghost Bear‘s legacy intro ends with a Kodiak in the face :P I wish death from above and other melee attacks would work in MWO. Too bad there was never a Mechwarrior 5, same as there was never a sequel to the Matrix movie.
Well both with buggy mechanics but also sometimes it may not seem like you're doing much, especially when a good shot earns retaliation fire that you notice does more, then you nail it good and BOOM, definitely did something that time because it is down, maybe hitting the cockpit (which is the fastest way to take out a mech but hardest due to the tiny profile)
@@vexingrabbit1824 Only problem with the Shadow Hawk was its completely terrible weapons. An AC5 for mid to long range, A LRM 5 for mid to long range, an SRM2 to add more dangerous ammo your never going to be able to use before it get blown up, and a single medium laser for short to medium range. Even its main variants had terrible guns. AC5s are terrible for any era and the SRM2 would be better off as another medium laser and heat sink. That AC5 is better off a large laser with added heat sinks and armor. But as long as you are allowed to strip the terrible guns off and replace them then the Shadow Hawk is one of my favorite mechs around.
@@clintfell7668 I usually frop the AC5 and LRM5s for a AC-10 or 20 then armor it up and you have a mid class mech that can take down an assault mech if your careful with decent speeds and armor. However it does have it flaws like the big gun on the shoulder that is easy to destroy and what not but all mechs have some weakness. I still like my Shadow Hawk, leave my poor 700 year old mech alone T_T
Beautiful recreation of the original intro, which didnt age quite as well with time as i thought it would in my head. You did a great job matching the timing of the original while improving on the animation.
@@YurNikolaev MW5 is a good starting platform but it is incomplete as a Mercenaries game. Didn't need a story just a setting with handcrafted events in Battletech history spanning from the 4th Succesion War to the Clan invasion. MW2 had all that. I don't want to be attached to cardboard characters, I want to run a Merc outfit and keep all the money.
@@SuperScopeDogMechwarrior 5 mercs has gotten much better with the updates Heroes of the inner sphere an now Legends of the Kestrel Lancers..patches ..I used to play the orginal MW2 mercs when.it first came out.
Not bad, It could have used more of the cinematic character of the original, like the first missile the Catapult fired at Commander Harris flying above her mech before the killing blow. Despite that, it was a good remake. Once addition I very much liked was the scene of the dropship entering the planet's atmosphere.
Damn fine work here. I do miss the Zeus in there; the OG intro gave it a special place in my heart, and honestly the MWO model for it is a spitting image of the one from the original Merc2 intro. That said, still great work and very much appreciated!
Lol the ending is how all mechwarrior online games end up. everyone else being the light mech that made it to the drop ship and the assault left behind to fend for themselves and left to die.
This is really great. The different weapon types when the commander killed the atlas and when the commando fired on the Catapult felt a little empty. The SRM rocket sound in the original is very iconic.
I was indeed planning to continue these and already started setting up props for the MW2 Mercs end scene, but since last August I'm part of the TMC crew on the Hired Steel project and put other things on ice. But I think you will be delighted with Episode 1 which should be released in Q1 this year.
Right, something I wondered as well in the original intro. I guess in a mercenaries world the argument would be about not getting paid enough to risk some scratches on the hull.
@@Nxtl68 From what I heard years ago, a tactic of mechwarriors would be to wait for mechs to start to board, then launch missiles inside the doors into the interior which could bring down a dropship instantly. They probably had to cover the doors fast before the catapult could launch it's salvo inside.
my brother who's 10 years older than me had this game when i was little. i was about 8 at the time i believe. when he went to college he left this game at the family computer. i would boot it up just to watch this intro. Then I'd pick a random mech and walk through the desert having no idea what the hell i was doing or how to start the actual campaign. I just loved listening to the music and firing rockets into the void. good times
Lot of comments about the weapons in the vids not matching the meta. Gotta keep it real here folks- watching a 5 min duel between a Zeus/Victor and an Atlas isnt going to work for game intro footage. Even if it wasnt tedious to watch, the file size of such a vid would be gigantic and have consumed a ton of room on the game's CD-Rom. (btw I was the lead tester or MW2:Mercs 3DFX enhancement/multiplayer/dynamic salvage patch bundle ;) )
I may have grown up on MW3 Mercenaries, but damn does this look good. Lots of patchy memories from when I was 10 just sitting at a computer running Windows Vista (I still remember when 7 came out and I nearly blue screened the computer installing it) but having the time of my life. Maybe one of these days I'll get back into Mech Warriors, but for now it feels like the magic is gone with the newer games at least for me.
@@ra-ul1238 MW2 was one of (if not *the*) first new game I got after my family got our first computer. Was ~10 at the time and it blew me away. Got GBL when it came out, naturally, and then absolutely loved MW2:M. The way they introduced the clans and the mechanics of being a mercenary hiring others, picking missions, and making/spending money was all done really well. Will always hold a special place in my heart and memory.
Y'know, with the FFVII remake and everything going on, I'd love to see an MW2: Mercs remake. I know it won't happen because of rights issues, but still.
Really good work. I can live with Atlas going down easy and everything, the only problem I really have with this intro is that the Victor is standing *right* next to a dropship taking off and it does absolutely nothing to it. It could have, say, been blown over by the blastoff and the final image could have been the Catapult's foot coming down on its head. Not Ra-ul's fault, obviously.
That dropship leaving her behind felt more personal than practical, she needed like 5 more seconds for god's sake, i get the catapult was right there but still, i think he intentionally murdered her.
@@ra-ul1238 oh that clip captures the complete essence of how hopeless at first going toe to toe against the clanners is, until you bring the whole inner sphere together. Man, goosebumps every time I see that, the same as back in 1996.
@@tplambert Definitely. Also a lot of symbolism in the mechs chosen in that fight. The Commando, the mech you start with in the game, is the first mech downed. The Clan mechs are the cover mechs for MW2 and the expansion Ghost Bear Legacy, and of course the Kodiak totem mech for the Ghost Bears. Three of the IS mechs that are the last line of defense are the much stronger mechs in the intro movie (Atlas, Catapult, Zeus), and the covermech for Mercenaries, the newtech Mauler. As you say, thematically representing the IS coming together against the Clans.
Also this is great. I really love how it kept the feel of the original. If I had one nitpick, it'd be that I liked how the Commando got hit and shook at 0:53 in the original, rather than the close shave here. I'm totally fine with swapping the zeus for a victor.
I also had the hardest time to understand half of what was said, almost made me think of redoing voiceovers, but that would have exceeded the scope of what I could do myself
fantastic work! loved every bit of it, youre work is amazing! just wished that either they remade MW2 MERCS with new graphics or i could find an old win98 computer to run it on :)

Same here, oh man, such good memories. Do you remember the multiplayer jump hop trick? oh man, it was pretty intesne.
To this day... I still don’t understand that line
I mean, she’s dead. What’s she keeping? LOL
He was saying it to the rookie pilot in the commando that made it aboard.
DUH!
All about the Cbills and glory.
What she said "Damn, Eat This!"
What I heard "Damn, He's Thick!"
Which is a very good description for an Atlas.
Yeah, the Atlas does have a thick torso.
In 2021 it’s ‘he’s thicc’.
I mean, you'r not wrong
and here I thought she said, 'he's history!'
You're not wrong. The Atlas has a very thicc torso which makes it a prime target to hit it.
The VA of that dropship captain is so badass. I just love the way he says, "look at the bright side kid, you get to keep all the money."
Yeah, but I still hate the guy.
Am I crazy or does the dropship captain sound like Crispin Freeman to anyone else?
@@procrastinatinggamer It kinda sounds like Phil Lamarr to me.
I love when she said, “there is still room in hell for your sorry carcass”. My favorite Mech just annihilated her. I love the Catapult

Beautiful recreation of the original intro, which didnt age quite as well with time as i thought it would in my head. You did a great job matching the timing of the original while improving on the animation.
Damn, think this is the greatest thing ever done with Piranhas assets. That ramp segment using the cockpit view lookedfantastic.
Would love to see MW2:M come back as a remake. Such a cool game
Yes, MW2:M remake on MW5 engine. That would be a blast.
I would love something similar but as an rpg. Like fallout or skyrim, in a sense

In 1996 Zeus? In 2019 Victor? Am i right?
Correct, I took the (artistic) freedom to go for that change
Great work, thank you :-)
Notably, we haven't seen a Zeus with a right-handed ballistic hard point in MWO
Yeah Zeus cant headshot an Atlas in one shot like a Victor can
I thought that too!
