"We are Jade Falcon, great among the Clans. We are warriors who fight with the strength of the falcons claw and ascend to the heavens on the wings of the same. We remember with the clarity of falcon-sight the words of Kerensky. Through the smoke of time he speaks to us, his chosen, and urges us onward with the promise of Eden. We will retake what is ours by right, that shining jewel Terra. Not the vastness of space nor the Wolf's obstinate howl will stay us from our righteous goal. We are Crusaders and will trample all who stand in our way!" Well that isn't Clan Smoke Jaguar but hey.
This bloody road has come to an end. Our fallen comrades litter the wastes of these barren worlds. We were trapped in the Wolf's maw, he in our claws. We bled from our wounds yet we did not die. And now the Warden Wolf broken and limping, forsaking history, all that is honorable and right and fled like a coward into a den of our common foe. We will heal and resume the track. We are back on the true road. The road to Terra.
As an old Netmech player and a MWO Founder, I'm very excited about this, plus I picked up all the expansions I missed over the last couple of years ago in the last sale, so that playthrough will tide me over until I can get back into a Timberwolf :)
Nope. It was a neat thing for the era. Ironically with all the improvements in graphics technology it would probably be cheaper to go back to filming actors.
I feel LA lends itself more to the space opera part of the universe: Like, I love the Mech Commander intro, but it's hard to portrait lore-accurate mech cockpits etc on a budget. Whereas the talk shows in some Mech Commander 2 cutscenes were top-notch, well-acted, lore-accurate and hilarious.
I REALLY appreciated that they're actually trying to portray even the SJ's as the righteous ones. They were written as the 'comically evil clanners' for way too long.
Well, they were the assholes who orbitally bombarded a planet because they lost patience with hit-and-fade attacks down there. Also, the Clans are comedically evil, minus the comedy when played straight: eugenics programs, a very painfully rigid caste system, worshipping a lunatic who may very well have murdered his own brother so he could make his own sequel to Amaris' regime, it's a very long list of why the Clans are arguably worse than House Kurita or Liao. Also, it's hard to consider a coked-out Elemental watch officer tearing a man in half for daring speak out of turn comedic.
Still no news of a GOG release. We got GOG releases for Mech5: mercs and it even mentioned it in the trailers for the DLCs. But it's conspicuously missing from this trailer.
finally! I've been wanting Clan invasion story for a long time! I like that they're doing a story narrative this time around. I hope there's a mix, or an option to also just run some missions, but I'm excited!
I'm in, im SO in. but that HUD man... like c'mon guys. you know we are going to just replace it with a modded HUD thats far less cluttered... so why not just design a good HUD and beat the modders to it lol. you guys literally made the best HUD in Mechwarrior with MW:O and you're gonna make us download a mod that makes it look just like that. like why is the weapons screen so big? I don't even want to think about how much of my screen a fully custom Direwolf would take up. even a Piranha-Prime would take up the entire side of your screen lmfao. anything that boats small arms is gonna obscure the right side of the screen. Timbie-prime only has 9 weapons + arms... Piranha has 14 + arms.
People complained about MW5 1.0 HUD being too clean and not futuristic enough and some people think MWO is too big and cluttered. Weapons screen (and everything) else need to be readable from a TV viewing distance which is something MW5 doesn't do super well. Ideally you'd have HUD scaling option to fit both use case
@@igi44 MW5s HUD was terrible at launch. It's better now in terms of where things are but yah it lacks so much character compared to MWO. You're right though there should be scaling options but the way the weapons are laid out here doesn't look like it would scale very well. The classic weapons screen could be scaled and it's alot easier to look at imo. Also again placement of things. There is no reason your star/lance info should be crammed into the corner next to the poperdoll. Put it in the top corner where the objective marker is now and put the objective marker under the lance info... Like it is in MW5 currently lmfao. Also fire group pips are not on the reticle anymore and they moved speed and heat up there for some reason. Heat makes sense but speed is probably the least useful HUD element in mechwarrior
Have to agree, the HUD still looks like something out of PlayMobil sets. They have a really great concept artist on their team, or at least they used to. Seen some of his HUD designs back when MW5 launched and they looked pretty "fighter jetty", which is something I'd expect a battlemech HUD to look like, but instead we get this weird, big, blocky, mobile game look-a-like stuff. I suppose it's for the consoles in mind, so that you can see all the details while sitting away from the screen and such, but I'm more inclined to believe the person who works on the UI stuff just isn't up to snuff designing HUD layouts/styles that look good and work well enough when it comes to gameplay. Same goes for the general menu styles too, for MW5 at least. The general visuals for basically anything that had to do with the menus, fonts, style in general, everything felt very amateurish visually speaking and almost like being pulled out of some first time indie dev project.
And here's to the people of Clan Smoke Jaguar Who say the Inner Sphere, well they just don't understand That they're only there to be won for the honor of the clans 'Cause those born from stinking flesh wombs, well they're clearly less than man If Kerensky saw you now he'd choke you with his own two hands Oh, here's to the Star League you've torn out the heart of Clan Smoke Jaguar, find yourself another cosmos to be part of
The more I read the comments, I’m finding there are a lot of people who have no idea what facism means. The clans are a Caste society ran by a council of blood names who choose a Khan from within the council. Not everything you disagree with is facist.
God I remember playing the game back on Win95. With full controls. I was 5 and I figured out how to move that M/Fer. I love this. I loved the RTS style game (I can’t recall the name). MWO even looked good (gotta see about that, Digimon Online and if there’s a way to play Battlestar Online). But FFS I’d kill for a reboot, remake or sequel to MechWarrior (Then again I feel. The same for Dead Space 3, Mass Effect, Army Of Two, BLACK, Cold Fear, RLH, Splinter Cell, non reboot MGS ie a WW2 one, a proper R6, Titanfall , and so on).
Not to mention the first story-based MechWarrior game to focus on Smoke Jaguar too. MechWarrior 3 technically does as well, but that's from the perspective of the Second Star League during Operation Serpent.
@@557deadpool I like how while everyone gloats about Tukayidd no one talks about how this was the one and only time the comguards were halfway competent as a standing army. Or how they are ~ya know~ dead.
While this is a smoke Jaguar game I still get to pilot my favorite mech, the timberwolf. Hopefully if this game does well we get dlc in the other invasion corridors. The wolves are waiting.
Oh, I did not realize that this is a standalone game and not just a DLC for MW5: Mercs. Proper campaigns are a lot better than the shitty random missions in MW5: Mercs. Some of the updates brought some nice missions to MW5: Mercs which feel like proper campaign missions, like the FedCom invasion of the Capellan Confederation, the Tikonov and Sarna missions were great.
Wait... Hang on, 1:11 Something about that damn scene reminds me of Mechwarrior 3's opening, to the point where I can practically hear the ''Die Clanner!'' voice line. I know that the only thing that's relevant is that there's a Mad-dog mech, but it just feels right somehow... Man... Or maybe I'm just getting freaking old and the nostalgia of seeing my beloved Mad-dog/Vulture in a cinematic is hitting a bit too hard.
The two mechs I miss the most, and always complain to my buddy about not being able to pilot, are the Vulture and Mad Cat Mk II. He gets real tired of my complaining, as he never played the early Mechwarrior games so he doesn't know what he missed.
Smoky Jaguars, kick Kurita's House's ass! Klaners, revive the Star League :)! I'm really looking forward to the game! Everything looks very cool and excellent.
Only in the sense they did not become Ilclan. They had some serious setbacks but eventually settled into a place in the rebuilt star league alongside the Jade Falcons after Clan Wolf captured and held Terra.
What I like about Battletech and Mechwarrior 5 is that they go for style over photo realistic graphics, but this trailer go for the opposite route, possibly using Unreal Engine 5, meaning that a very few people would play this game, because it would have high specs, you not need a overly saturated photo realistic graphics to have a freaking good game.
@@cloacky4409 The last Sins of the Solar Empire use Unreal Engine 5 and have so high specs that is practically unplayable in mid specs computers, even mine that is a mid/high specs computer, the specs of the game are to high, I was looking forward to play the game till I watched the specs, are to high.
@@cloacky4409 But how old is Fortnite? Five, ten years old? You would have lucky that any recent Unreal 5 engine game work in your computer now at days.
Plz let this game go to the Battle of Tukayyid. I’m betting the aerospace fighter shown in this trailer is the kamikaze pilot who crashes into the drop ship carrying the IlKhan
That wasn't Tukayyid. The Pilot who kamikazed clanner ship was a Rasalhagian and it happened as the IlKhan, then Smoke Jaguar, who was "visiting" Clan Wolf flagship. But during Tukayyid one of clans tried fancy hover drop maneuver and a Comstar pilot decided to wipe out a good chunk of that clans force and command by ramming into their DropShip, by Tukayyid IlKhan was a Wolf, who survived untill clans started to settle matters within their own ranks.
@@Jaegerrants Definitely 👍 I’m aware of that , I just wanted to make that observation I noticed in the trailer. The pilot was Kell’s ex girlfriend. My bad on my poor grammar, what I meant was (do Tukayyid) stop, new sentence (btw I noticed that ship looks like it maybe the famous moment when the Jags lost their IlKhan). Again sorry for the confusion.
@@kryptonianguest1903 really? I could’ve sworn he was on the clan equivalent of a union class dropship overseeing the invasion and checking up on the Steelwolves clan since the crusaders never really agreed with the warden clans on how to prosecute the invasion. But if I’m wrong that’s cool.
@Gaming_Helm The IlKhan arrived on a dropship, but it had docked with the Dire Wolf and he was on the Dire Wolf when he died. The Dire Wolf could be called a jumpship because it had a jumpdrive and could carry dropships, or it could be called a war ship because of the sheer quantity of firepower it carried.
Why would the clans every say fascist as an insult? They love to use examples of fascists as great military leaders because all they respect is strength, they dont care about morality.
I hope there is a Career Mode after you do the main story campaign....otherwise rip It would be hype if you could take the role of other Clans in the Career as well...just give us a Generic Star Commander for that.
Quite a lot of people. Remember that people played mech 4 black knight, where the entire concept is you go and blow up the people who you played as in the previous game
The fact that Space AT&T smacked the cigarette out of Smoke Jaguar's mouth & then made them eat it. I'm not so sure things are going to work as they planned.
Whoever wrote this, I am sick and tired of the fascism obsession current year types have. The combine is Autocratic not Fascist. Most of these Sweet Baby Inc types can’t accurately define fascism as it is. Furthermore, the Smoked Jags were culturally Mongolian inspired. Then again young clean cut white guy is very current year to play a “bad guy”. The Jags were notoriously brutal and inflexible. It’s part of why the clans let them get killed off during operation “Bull Dog”.
We all know what any invading force takes great care to do is to make sure to absolutely never mischaracterize the people you're invading. What's the matter sweetheart? Upset over the misuse of fascism?
@@jonathanmensch9698 call them wanna be dictators, call them xenophobic, call them eugenics freaks, call them brutal killers, call them clan cultist jack a$$es, all of the above fit. Fascists they are not. No fascist society would put that much pertinence on earning a name and accepting personal risk. It is a grossly over used term by people who firstly don’t understand what one is, and secondly don’t understand that the enemies of decent life come in many flavors. Personally I am amused how often the champions of “diversity and inclusion” attempt to use a singular catch all term for anyone they oppose. It is doubly amusing considering only one of the axis powers was actually fascist. The other two were a socialist dictatorships and a homogenous empire respectively. Call your enemies what they are, and damn them for what they are actually guilty of.

Whoa whoa wait...a new game in this franchise that is *not* based around Mercenaries?! Yes!
The Mercenary thing gets old after a while doesn't it. I much preferred the story driven main MW3 and MW4 rather than their mercenary versions
The Mercenary titles and the salvage economy side always did it more for me, but also very excited to get another story-driven entry!
@@jasongarfitt1147this is one thing I always felt like MW4 Vengeance and Black Knight had that was criminally underrated and overlooked: good, solid stories.
If they could mix the economy of MW5: Mercenaries (salvage, too) and a story at least on par with MW4:V, this’ll be a great game.

We will retake what is ours by right, that shining jewel Terra. Not the vastness of space nor the Wolf's obstinate howl will stay us from our righteous goal. We are Crusaders and will trample all who stand in our way!"
Well that isn't Clan Smoke Jaguar but hey.
This bloody road has come to an end. Our fallen comrades litter the wastes of these barren worlds. We were trapped in the Wolf's maw, he in our claws. We bled from our wounds yet we did not die.

As an old Netmech player and a MWO Founder, I'm very excited about this, plus I picked up all the expansions I missed over the last couple of years ago in the last sale, so that playthrough will tide me over until I can get back into a Timberwolf :)
Is it just me that really misses the Live action trailers and cut scenes?
Nope. It was a neat thing for the era. Ironically with all the improvements in graphics technology it would probably be cheaper to go back to filming actors.
@@Halo1138 and look better and more realistic with a lot cheaper set design to boot
Nope. That Mechcommander intro lives rent free in my soul.
@@AmanOU2be absolutely loved that! 😁
I feel LA lends itself more to the space opera part of the universe: Like, I love the Mech Commander intro, but it's hard to portrait lore-accurate mech cockpits etc on a budget. Whereas the talk shows in some Mech Commander 2 cutscenes were top-notch, well-acted, lore-accurate and hilarious.
I REALLY appreciated that they're actually trying to portray even the SJ's as the righteous ones. They were written as the 'comically evil clanners' for way too long.
Well, they were the assholes who orbitally bombarded a planet because they lost patience with hit-and-fade attacks down there. Also, the Clans are comedically evil, minus the comedy when played straight: eugenics programs, a very painfully rigid caste system, worshipping a lunatic who may very well have murdered his own brother so he could make his own sequel to Amaris' regime, it's a very long list of why the Clans are arguably worse than House Kurita or Liao.
Also, it's hard to consider a coked-out Elemental watch officer tearing a man in half for daring speak out of turn comedic.
I'm excited to see what happens to Leo Showers, nice to see a Smoke Jaguar in charge. I bet he's around for awhile.
Still no news of a GOG release. We got GOG releases for Mech5: mercs and it even mentioned it in the trailers for the DLCs. But it's conspicuously missing from this trailer.

damn the voice acting and cinematics are amazing ! I hope its like this for the whole game!

I cannot wait for this to drop, I’m so hyped!
I'm in, im SO in. but that HUD man... like c'mon guys. you know we are going to just replace it with a modded HUD thats far less cluttered... so why not just design a good HUD and beat the modders to it lol.
you guys literally made the best HUD in Mechwarrior with MW:O and you're gonna make us download a mod that makes it look just like that. like why is the weapons screen so big? I don't even want to think about how much of my screen a fully custom Direwolf would take up. even a Piranha-Prime would take up the entire side of your screen lmfao. anything that boats small arms is gonna obscure the right side of the screen. Timbie-prime only has 9 weapons + arms... Piranha has 14 + arms.
People complained about MW5 1.0 HUD being too clean and not futuristic enough and some people think MWO is too big and cluttered. Weapons screen (and everything) else need to be readable from a TV viewing distance which is something MW5 doesn't do super well. Ideally you'd have HUD scaling option to fit both use case
@@igi44 MW5s HUD was terrible at launch. It's better now in terms of where things are but yah it lacks so much character compared to MWO. You're right though there should be scaling options but the way the weapons are laid out here doesn't look like it would scale very well. The classic weapons screen could be scaled and it's alot easier to look at imo. Also again placement of things. There is no reason your star/lance info should be crammed into the corner next to the poperdoll. Put it in the top corner where the objective marker is now and put the objective marker under the lance info... Like it is in MW5 currently lmfao. Also fire group pips are not on the reticle anymore and they moved speed and heat up there for some reason. Heat makes sense but speed is probably the least useful HUD element in mechwarrior
Have to agree, the HUD still looks like something out of PlayMobil sets.
They have a really great concept artist on their team, or at least they used to. Seen some of his HUD designs back when MW5 launched and they looked pretty "fighter jetty", which is something I'd expect a battlemech HUD to look like, but instead we get this weird, big, blocky, mobile game look-a-like stuff. I suppose it's for the consoles in mind, so that you can see all the details while sitting away from the screen and such, but I'm more inclined to believe the person who works on the UI stuff just isn't up to snuff designing HUD layouts/styles that look good and work well enough when it comes to gameplay.
Same goes for the general menu styles too, for MW5 at least. The general visuals for basically anything that had to do with the menus, fonts, style in general, everything felt very amateurish visually speaking and almost like being pulled out of some first time indie dev project.
They’re making a new game stop complaining lol
I'm not sure the clan invasion is what Aleksandr Kerensky had in mind when he said the SLDF (Star Legue defence force) would one day return to Terra
I can not wait!! This some great news😊
And here's to the people of Clan Smoke Jaguar
Who say the Inner Sphere, well they just don't understand
That they're only there to be won for the honor of the clans
'Cause those born from stinking flesh wombs, well they're clearly less than man
If Kerensky saw you now he'd choke you with his own two hands
Oh, here's to the Star League you've torn out the heart of
Clan Smoke Jaguar, find yourself another cosmos to be part of
The more I read the comments, I’m finding there are a lot of people who have no idea what facism means. The clans are a Caste society ran by a council of blood names who choose a Khan from within the council. Not everything you disagree with is facist.
True.
The Clans are caste-based militaristic imperialistic communists

God I remember playing the game back on Win95. With full controls. I was 5 and I figured out how to move that M/Fer.
I love this.
I loved the RTS style game (I can’t recall the name).
MWO even looked good (gotta see about that, Digimon Online and if there’s a way to play Battlestar Online).
But FFS I’d kill for a reboot, remake or sequel to MechWarrior
(Then again I feel. The same for Dead Space 3, Mass Effect, Army Of Two, BLACK, Cold Fear, RLH, Splinter Cell, non reboot MGS ie a WW2 one, a proper R6, Titanfall , and so on).
Finally a return to the Clan perspective in a mechwarrior/battletech game. I was so tired of having to play as freebirth scum.
Not to mention the first story-based MechWarrior game to focus on Smoke Jaguar too. MechWarrior 3 technically does as well, but that's from the perspective of the Second Star League during Operation Serpent.

Oh, I did not realize that this is a standalone game and not just a DLC for MW5: Mercs.
Proper campaigns are a lot better than the shitty random missions in MW5: Mercs.
Some of the updates brought some nice missions to MW5: Mercs which feel like proper campaign missions, like the FedCom invasion of the Capellan Confederation, the Tikonov and Sarna missions were great.
Wait... Hang on, 1:11
Something about that damn scene reminds me of Mechwarrior 3's opening, to the point where I can practically hear the ''Die Clanner!'' voice line.
I know that the only thing that's relevant is that there's a Mad-dog mech, but it just feels right somehow...
Man... Or maybe I'm just getting freaking old and the nostalgia of seeing my beloved Mad-dog/Vulture in a cinematic is hitting a bit too hard.
im glad im not the only one that thought that when i saw the maddog.
although now we get to say "DIE FREEBIRTH!" hehe
I remember running the vulture in mechwarrior 3. Good times, especially if you had a joystick like an Intek.
They have been putting various things in trailers referencing to the old games. The teaser was a direct callback to mechwarrior 2
The two mechs I miss the most, and always complain to my buddy about not being able to pilot, are the Vulture and Mad Cat Mk II. He gets real tired of my complaining, as he never played the early Mechwarrior games so he doesn't know what he missed.

Who are Clan Jaguar? never heard of them no sir they dont' exist.
Only in the sense they did not become Ilclan. They had some serious setbacks but eventually settled into a place in the rebuilt star league alongside the Jade Falcons after Clan Wolf captured and held Terra.
Badly.
What I like about Battletech and Mechwarrior 5 is that they go for style over photo realistic graphics, but this trailer go for the opposite route, possibly using Unreal Engine 5, meaning that a very few people would play this game, because it would have high specs, you not need a overly saturated photo realistic graphics to have a freaking good game.
UE5 specs arent that higher than UE4 lol
@@cloacky4409 The last Sins of the Solar Empire use Unreal Engine 5 and have so high specs that is practically unplayable in mid specs computers, even mine that is a mid/high specs computer, the specs of the game are to high, I was looking forward to play the game till I watched the specs, are to high.

In honor of blessed Blake, I welcome the clanners to Tukayyid on the 1st of May 3052
There we will break you
Plz let this game go to the Battle of Tukayyid. I’m betting the aerospace fighter shown in this trailer is the kamikaze pilot who crashes into the drop ship carrying the IlKhan
That wasn't Tukayyid. The Pilot who kamikazed clanner ship was a Rasalhagian and it happened as the IlKhan, then Smoke Jaguar, who was "visiting" Clan Wolf flagship. But during Tukayyid one of clans tried fancy hover drop maneuver and a Comstar pilot decided to wipe out a good chunk of that clans force and command by ramming into their DropShip, by Tukayyid IlKhan was a Wolf, who survived untill clans started to settle matters within their own ranks.
@@Jaegerrants Definitely 👍 I’m aware of that , I just wanted to make that observation I noticed in the trailer. The pilot was Kell’s ex girlfriend. My bad on my poor grammar, what I meant was (do Tukayyid) stop, new sentence (btw I noticed that ship looks like it maybe the famous moment when the Jags lost their IlKhan). Again sorry for the confusion.
Guys, the IlKhan was on a jumpship. The type of ship that carries dropships.
@@kryptonianguest1903 really? I could’ve sworn he was on the clan equivalent of a union class dropship overseeing the invasion and checking up on the Steelwolves clan since the crusaders never really agreed with the warden clans on how to prosecute the invasion. But if I’m wrong that’s cool.
@Gaming_Helm The IlKhan arrived on a dropship, but it had docked with the Dire Wolf and he was on the Dire Wolf when he died. The Dire Wolf could be called a jumpship because it had a jumpdrive and could carry dropships, or it could be called a war ship because of the sheer quantity of firepower it carried.
I'll get this when released of course. But, I can't help myself...
"Smoked Jaguar." -Any member of Operation Bulldog.

Why would the clans every say fascist as an insult? They love to use examples of fascists as great military leaders because all they respect is strength, they dont care about morality.
Because in their eyes, Kurita represents a "false God."
I hope there is a Career Mode after you do the main story campaign....otherwise rip
It would be hype if you could take the role of other Clans in the Career as well...just give us a Generic Star Commander for that.
Cute. The Dragon eats the Jaguar, in the end. (game looks good tho)
I like both sides to be honest.
Not without the aid of the mercs.
I wish they would have put this kind of effort into MW5 Mercs story.
Who wants to play a game where the end is you get bet by a phone company and almost wiped out?
Quite a lot of people. Remember that people played mech 4 black knight, where the entire concept is you go and blow up the people who you played as in the previous game
"Who wants to play 'Tie Fighter' as the Empire in Star Wars they lose to teddy bears." Not everything is about picking a winning fictional team
The music sounds so teasingly close to MW2 OST.
Spoiler Alert: they lose, and they all DIE!

Whoever wrote this, I am sick and tired of the fascism obsession current year types have. The combine is Autocratic not Fascist. Most of these Sweet Baby Inc types can’t accurately define fascism as it is. Furthermore, the Smoked Jags were culturally Mongolian inspired. Then again young clean cut white guy is very current year to play a “bad guy”. The Jags were notoriously brutal and inflexible. It’s part of why the clans let them get killed off during operation “Bull Dog”.
Current year son? You new to media? Fasicm is, has and always will be the bad guy across time across media.
