All things considered, from the earliest renditions of FASA to the current CGL crop, Rasalhague has ever been doomed to be dominated by someone. It's as if they're the whipping Mech of the Inner Sphere. The proverbial underdogs.
I would like to see a long end game type Strategy, where you play Inner Sphere House/Periphery group right at Kerensky's Exodus and Start of the Successor Wars. I would enjoy that more than first person shooters, Cannon amerced.
I'm actually kind of in the middle about MW5. It's one of those games with amazing potential but just isn't properly utilized by the devs. I don't think the devs even realize what they have. But ultimately, its biggest flaw is the same as that of Skyrim: the fucking owners just _refuse_ to stop updating it and breaking all the mods that make it great! /rageface
@@Knightlyfrog From the Beginning, you knew the end. In a way yes. And it's very possible PGI could retconn some things from existing lore to change that. Kind of like how Bungie really screwed with the Halo Reach lore.
Funny...you did a Crusader video like a month ago...guess I need to check that out...Make room folks I'm getting on the hype train. I like the mission packs and expanded mission types thus far.
>ok commander. We're dropping you into a box canyon to defend a small military facility that's too small and isolated to defend anything and looks like it was made specifically for a video game I really didn't understand how bad this game was until I tried it. The UI for the starmap, the post battle pilot skills, the mech bays, etc are all so ugly or poorly designed. They put a lot of detail in small areas and then don't add any strong borders so that your brain can quickly seperate them.
Too bad Dominion Divided has Ghost Bear/Rasalhague self-immolate! Damn, just when I'm getting into the tabletop game & had my faction picked out they had to screw it up!
I'm curious on what the base game will get out of this DLC. All the other ones seemed to add decent QOL updates. But I'm happy the game is getting just one more update, but seems to be lacking. Upside just a month and a half until its released.
Guess you got stuck for a little longer, Mage Leader. Personally I see Rasalhague as a recurring setting in the universe that's useful to writers who want to shape things the way they want them in a particular time. They may go down but NEVER count 'em completely out.
why haven't you done a video on if not the most, one of the most numerous mechs in the Battletech universe? The Locust is one of the longest lived, numerous, and modified/variants in the Battletech universe.
Bought the game have the current DLCs, when I tried to play it, I fell asleep, haven't played it since to boring and hate the layout of the screens of the game. I still Play mw4 though!
Mage leader I'd like to know what your thoughts are on this. I'm not going to lie I'm not really a fan of mecharger 5 mainly because piranha are a bunch of dicks. And while I like the legend of the kestrel lancers are a very good add-on the idea of the rise of Rassall hog is kind of interesting to me. But I like to hear your thoughts on what you want to see out of this expansion. And somebody who's often declared himself a straight-up rasselhawk player I'd like to know what your expectations of the game should be.
it was horrible at launch but not bad after a few dlc. Demolishers dont suddenly spawn behind you anymore and your AI lancemates get a huge hp boost so they dont drain all your c-bills. The mods like merctech & YAML add a lot of replayability

@@orionhan2431 The game is fundamentally bad. It core mechanics are terrible. Compared to the games that came before it in the series, it's completely soulless and dull. It should have had a linear story with unique maps for each mission. If only it were easier to get MW3 and MW4 running, I'd be playing those instead.
I for one am excited. The actual gameplay on MW5 is better than it's predecessors. The shooty shooty bang bang part of it I mean. The mechlab needs mods to be good, I refuse to play the game unmodded. The monetary management is ok for the early game but as soon as you start salvaging assault mechs that goes out the window. But that is how it should be. You run a company and you become successful at it so your overhead costs should not be able to keep up with the dough you're raking in. A twelve mission campaign for this dlc sounds great. I believe that's longer than Kestrel Lancers. What the game lacks, and I kind of even like that, is a reason to shoot at mechs beyond: I want to earn money. You're a mercenary, not some kind of loyal Great House Soldier. Your reason to do anything should be: "Fuck you and pay me" The bounty hunter and rival mercs can be what the game needs. It's a blank canvas to paint your own story onto. To realize the game's potential we need more dynamic interactions. Simulations that create a story. Your story. It doesn't have to be something with the depth of a dwarf fortress or Rimworld but that's the direction it needs to go.

Hmm...the Urban mechs of the Inner Sphere... heh.

Must be part of the Video Game franchise.
Crusader Kings: Battletech let’s go!
It’s good to see there’s some modicum of effort to further the game.
Rasalhague.. the Yamcha of Battletech...
I told you. Archbishop of rasalhague. But no, you don't want to crusade.

"Aw fuck"
Down the rabbit hole you go Alice
I'm no expert, but Rasalhague seems like the Halo Reach of BattleTech.
If by that you means it's the best one then I agree.
@@mageleader3699 Sure, but also, don't we know how it ends before we start?
@@Knightlyfrog From the Beginning, you knew the end.
In a way yes. And it's very possible PGI could retconn some things from existing lore to change that. Kind of like how Bungie really screwed with the Halo Reach lore.
They knew. They waited.
ONCE MORE WITH FEELING!
Can't wait to see what space Ikea brings to the table, I just hope they ship the mechs assembled
YES! I hope the story about Altenmarkt is included.
For Rasalhague!

Crack out the longships, here we go again
I saw this and immediately thought of you lmao

I suspect a mission pack
They said AI updates and rival mercenary units.
i think the main draw will be the Crusader and the 12 missions.

Mechwarrior is still alive and well.
FUNNY SPACE SWEDES
YES!!!
Crusader!
Ah shit, here we go again!
No step on snek
why haven't you done a video on if not the most, one of the most numerous mechs in the Battletech universe? The Locust is one of the longest lived, numerous, and modified/variants in the Battletech universe.
I've been putting off getting this game because I dont have the next gen system. But I might to have to bite the bullet now. Sigh...
I hope this one is better than call to arms. Plus it will fuck up all my mods for a week or two.

Should of been us helping fight off the clanners to try and "save" Rasalhague if anyone actually cares (you don't)
not possible because they dont want to release clan mechs
@@orionhan2431 Thank god for mods
Too bad Mechwarrior 5 just really sucks. No amount of DLC with fix it.
Mods on the other hands help.

Some of this $ will get to crapalyst games. So no.
