This is the story of a pilot who put everything on the line to complete the contract and maintain the units reputation. After destroying an endless number of artillery batteries, turrets, tanks, and aircraft all while fighting off wave after wave of light and medium Mechs, victory was in sight. The operation was nearing success when the worst possible news came over comms. The enemy assault lance was dispatched. Heavily damaged, low on ammo, and cornered by a hostile Atlas, the Commanders Nightstar was down to a single side torso, leg, and arm, with only a fraction of the center torso structure remaining. In a desperate attempt to survive and with only two heavy rifle slugs and four thumper artillery rounds remaining, each shot needed to count. Through years of hardened combat training, against all odds, and with a little luck, the Commander felled the Atlas with only one rifle slug and two artillery rounds fired center mass, and not a moment too soon. Allied forces were soon on scene and cleared off the remaining hostiles, surrounding their badly damaged commander. Ammo completely depleted, armor and torso shredded, and a single functioning small laser remaining, the site was captured and objective secured. As the friendly drop ships arrived with reinforcements, the Commander looked to the sky. Another day on the job, another contract complete. Just another day... ...as a Mercenary.
Nice, I was waiting for this to create my 'Mech Metal' Vol.2 , thanks Vincent! I've been obsessed with your entire music catalogue since I discovered it by the way, haha. Legend!
This is some crazy timing! I just started playing the game again a few days ago, and yesterday I thought about how much I enjoyed your previous covers (and also noticed that you hadn't done the main theme yet). What can I say? That's my kind of synchronicity!
As someone who plays this game regularly...this is better than the actual song by at least a factor of 10. I can vividly imagine some Solaris VII gladiator walking into a screaming arena with this as their theme.
You know personally I think each version is epic in their own right and I can't favor one over the other. Like the original I feel like is the intro to the movie and the recurring diddly seeded through. This version is what gets played during the climax of the battle during the peak emotional moment. It is one of those times where I can't pick which I like best. With his other covers I prefer them to the originals but this one is super tricky for me.
I just discovered your MW5 covers this morning and I am absolutely blown away by them! I love the entire soundtrack by Sean Kolton and you're totally doing it justice. Incredible work!
You should play Battletech. (The PC Strategy Game) Better than both. MW5 just has so many issues with map design and odd, tacked on features like the melee combat.
I still hope you'll ever want to do something with Metaphysics - Golden Despite. It's originally the theme of the game X-Blades, but it's an amazing song! Thanks in advance! Also did you remove your twitter Vince?
Hey Vincent, don't know if you're familiar with the Dynasty Warriors video game series at all, but those games have some real banger sound tracks that I bet you could elevate even further. Particularly Dynasty Warriors 4 has some of my favorite OSTs from the whole franchise. My personal favorites are the song "Eve", the Dynasty Warriors 4 Fire Mix (Lu Bu's theme), and "In Full Bloom". All of them have some pretty cool guitar work IMO and I'd love to see you cover the series some day! The series is all the way up to Dynasty Warriors 9 now and presumably 10 is in development but they still include some fan favorite songs from the past games (such as the aforementioned Eve for example) as songs you can get as small DLCs in the more recent games because they're so good.
I am knce again commenting in hopes of getting an answer to where i can listen to this off youtube as the links you provided dont seem to have this song there.
@@NKKS-33 Серия модов на игру Yet Another Mech lab. Добавляет в игру возможность заменять движки (можно атласа разогнать до 64 км/ч или марадера до 81 км/ч), больше оружия, больше возможностей для тюнинга, больше роботов, у всех мехов появляются особые черты. Единственный минус - не знаю, есть ли русификатор.
I like how even the game footage for an OST cover is using mods. Because we all know the UI for this game is trash. Great game otherwise, but the UI suuuuucks.

A mech pilot who also SHREDS?!?! Sick.
Mech pilot is my friend DamienEx, but thanks! 😁
I mean incidentally I do shred as well.... but Vincent is WAY better than I am.
@@damienex1021 Difference is, Vince shreds guitars where you shred iron! :P
I just adore the mw5 motif. Depressing and badass at the same time.
And thank good you worked it into this piece.

More coming your way (as long as the Mech videos continue to perform well) so smash that share button!
Awesome Mech Warrior 5 metal remix and neat in-game footage!😻
\m/
Need. More. Bagpipes.
Rock on 🤘
Dude, we will beat the Clanners with this! 🤩
Currently I listen to ur covers of Mw5 while playing Battletech Roguetech mod in preparation for the new online season get me going all session long
Should collaborate with a modder to get these tracks in the game.

Another banger! Really cool to hear these different takes on my tunes. All your stuff is awesome.
Wooow! Thanks so much! Blessed to read that.
Holy freaking shit..... this is probably the most epic endorsement EVER!
Thanks dude for giving us an amazing sound track to enjoy!

I'm new to the game
I love the theme and your version is so great.
Thanks for that banger ! :D

Thanks so much! 🤘
Wow! Seriously good!!
Love this game and love your covers.
I love this MechWarrior brand comeback. MWO and MW5 are both going strong and the overlap between Ace Combat and MW are pretty strong.
Neither he nor I are done yet. I don't do MWO but there are still at least 8 tracks from MW5 and the DLC's on our list.
@@damienex1021 That pumps me up to hear.... These are so freaking good, and I'm not just saying that as a MW fanboy. They're genuinely amazing.
You should play Battletech. (The PC Strategy Game)
Better than both.
MW5 just has so many issues with map design and odd, tacked on features like the melee combat.
Yeah Modern Warfare 5 is much more better
Absolutley incredible.

This is an AWESOME remix, A+ work!
Amazing work again Vince!
Yo this is sick
I still hope you'll ever want to do something with Metaphysics - Golden Despite. It's originally the theme of the game X-Blades, but it's an amazing song! Thanks in advance! Also did you remove your twitter Vince?
F***ing amazing!!!!!!!!!
I absolutely love all of your MW5 and AC covers. Planetkiller next, maybe?

Oopsie! MechWarrior covers haven't made it to my Spotify yet 🫣
@@HaarasNC I hope they make it somewhere soon. I couldn't find them on your apple music or Amazon music either!
Cool cover but, when i hear Mechwarrior, i think about Mechwarrior Vengeance and OG Mechwarrior Mercenaries. Still love those games.
I cant find this song at all in your Amazon Music page. Is there a reason for that? I really wanna buy the song and support you!
this makes my mech warrior 5 sessions more epic so i can continue to crush the cappelan scum for the Draconis combine and my lance-mate's
Imagine he did blacken winds next gosh. That’s would probably be rock on rock XD
When the Atlas brawl its victims !!!
