Hey Baradul, as someone who has been following your channel since the beginning, let me say this. Your English has always been good. Now, it's perfect. Keep up the good work.
It's a slim chance but I hope this means we'll see things like small cockpit, compact/XL Gyro, and such added to the game as equipment we can swap out in mechs.
I was waiting for this video! :D I've been running 3 LPPCs in mine, but I've been thinking of going down to a bunch of lasers and leaning into the zombie a bit more. It is a really fun little mech. Thanks for the great content as always!
First time I've been this early, been really glad to see all this great Mechwarrior Content of late, the Daily Doses are always jsut great to relax to. This Commando is so goddamned Zippy, especially with the MASC I've never seen its like... and the Light Engine makes a lot of sense to me as well if your purpose is to be a buzzing little fly that's impossible to hit, impossible to smack and coming to bite your ankles off.
Good video Bara and good too you stop hating on the Commando. Even if it is a for-fun Christmas variant. The Wolfhound might be my favorite IS Light but the Commando is definitely the most fun IS Light when creating utter chaos behind enemy lines and dropping arty down on the slow movers and launching UAVs behind their backs. 😄 The Commando really is a lot of fun if you play it correctly. 🙂
It was kind of weird watching this while answering emails as I work from home. I had to keep pausing and I lost track of the action. Still, Christmas Commando doesn't seem like it should be something to be afraid of, until it's chewing up your back armor and sowing chaos among the ranks of your friends. Nice video!
I went with the zombie build with 2x MPL + 3x ERSL, since with the quirk they have almost-exact range and cycle time matches (the ERSLs have less cooldown but a longer burn duration than te MPLs, and it basically evens out). Nothing else can do that kind of zombie shooting, but if you're going LFE or XL there's a lot of other Sphere lights and mediums that can bring the same firepower and go as fast or faster than the Commando can even under MASC. Basically all going to LFE on with the 2x MPLs and 3x ERSLs bought Baradul was the AMS system. And don't get me wrong, I'm always happy to see people carrying AMS instead of complaining about being hit by missiles, but I don't think an AMS system is worth the durability trade.
because of these vids i reinstalled MWO and have been playing here or there. i've been using my builds that are several years old now (when i last played) and they have been working good to ok. my pilot rating dropped to the lowest in that time frame though lol.
Crap, over already? I was out of town and missed the event. Was really looking forward to getting this when I got home. Oh well, it's as sweet as I thought it was.
When I got it at first I was like "oh no, XL does nothing! I cant go faster! lame!". Then went with standard engine and just... had A LOT of fun. Just small pulse lasers and no need for more. I've survived many matches without any side torsos and still killing enemies.
This is the first I'm hearing of the Christmas event where you get a free mech by playing a single game. I thought I was watching Mechwarrior content pretty regularly lately.
@@zoltanhorvath5989 I know, I got the marauder with the bright green paint job the other year. I'm just the kind of person who grazes across several games more than focuses on a single regular game. I frequently put games down for months or years at a time. I was imagining that I'd get a video talking about MWO's seasonal events somewhere in my feed, but I guess I didn't train the algorithm well enough.
I love this one too. It's one of the few lights that I can consistently play well in. Harassment at it's finest. Wargaming could learn a lot from Paranah about how to give away vehicles for the holidays. This year's free tank is less than stellar.
I just can't find a build I like on this mech. I like to put LPPCs on light mechs for the range and anti-ecm properties, but it doesn't suit this mech very well. Xpulse require too much face time for safety, and anything bigger (ie LL or up) is a serious DPS loss without any real benefit.
EMS worker here. ROUGH-ass day. This is a super welcome video to decompress on.
Hey Baradul, as someone who has been following your channel since the beginning, let me say this. Your English has always been good. Now, it's perfect. Keep up the good work.
I took the zombie option, std 170 plus MASC, 5 ERML. A commando that doesn't stop moving is hard to hit, especially when it fights at 300m range. =)
It's a slim chance but I hope this means we'll see things like small cockpit, compact/XL Gyro, and such added to the game as equipment we can swap out in mechs.
Not a chance, in this implementation all it does is give you more slots for free.
Doubtful, it would defeat the purpose and main gimmick of the Warlord Atlas.
you might see them more on future variants, but I don't think we will ever see them as an option to use in the mech lab
Yup, it will just be individual variants. Sell more legendary mechs, basically.
@@gbprime2353 I Imagine they will come to non legends too, much like with this commando. There will be much cooler stuff to make legends appealing
I have been running mine with a LE175 a Snub PPC and 4 x Small lasers. It's a lot of fun
wow all these years I never knew you took less damage in thee water.
I wish they'd introduce a cooling down mechanic like in MechWarrior 3 where your heat is gone when you stand in water.
@@TallDude73 pretty sure being in water does cool you faster if your heatsinks are under the wster
Leg mounted heat sinks do cool faster when submerged
There were spots in river city where a locust was completely submerged and untargettable
@@Artificer1911 same with that map with the boat in the water which the name escapes me now. Loved using those spots.
I was waiting for this video! :D

The convergence on this little thing is pretty nuts.

The "Hello! Goodbye!" Mech. Thanks for the video.
Played it yesterday and loved it! 500+dmg 1 kill and several assists.
Thank you for the MWO content once again and have a happy new year

red and green lasers is a nice touch
So this is the commando we used to use in MW2 mercs. FUN!

Commando is my second favorite light.
Good 'ol Commando!
That looked like a lot of fun.
I run it with 5ersmall, the range after quirks isn't much less than medpulse, and easier to manage with all identical weapons.
Having a bounty on you is so cool!
This is the first I'm hearing of the Christmas event where you get a free mech by playing a single game. I thought I was watching Mechwarrior content pretty regularly lately.
MWO had the same event every year. We got some nice mechs in the past.

@@Thalanox Ohhh. I got it. It happens. Set a calendar next time. 😁
this game is still sooo good
Dang it. By the time family time was done with I ended up having to be admitted to hospital and missed out on the event 😭love that setup though
Happy New Year!
I think a standard engine would be better, because no matter what side torso you use you don't lose weapons and you can still fit 5 sml pulse.
The mech is too small. They shoot the center always
Very nice! Thx!
Build suggestion, a double binary cannon xl cicada.
Ok, I want one of those...!!!
Wish I could have unlocked this, but I was dealing with moving.
I love this one too. It's one of the few lights that I can consistently play well in. Harassment at it's finest. Wargaming could learn a lot from Paranah about how to give away vehicles for the holidays. This year's free tank is less than stellar.
Happy 2024 Bara.
Five missiles worth the AMS?
I run mine with snubs, its hilarious
I can't play this mech. I just can't play it because of how the lasers are situated on the mech.
It is a little suggestive, isn't it?
@@dakkath414 just don't put a flamer on this thing....
Are you 8 or a mormon?
100 out of 💯 !!!😃😃😃
was there any benefit , when you get kill a streamer ?XD
Depending on whether it's a Dev or a Streamer, you earn a title and some GSP/MC.
I just can't find a build I like on this mech.
I like to put LPPCs on light mechs for the range and anti-ecm properties, but it doesn't suit this mech very well.
Xpulse require too much face time for safety, and anything bigger (ie LL or up) is a serious DPS loss without any real benefit.
The game is super unbalanced NOT worth playing DO NOT BUY MECHS
