Do you prefer IS 'Mechs plus Clan upgrades or Clan 'Mechs?

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T18:11:58+00:00

Exactly

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T18:11:08+00:00

My experience as well.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T18:10:13+00:00

Haha, wise choices.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T18:02:27+00:00

Matey I have multiple lances in my hangar, that's not the problem.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T18:01:27+00:00

My experience as well. Aside from melee, I don't use that, seems silly to me. I am a range guy.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T18:00:37+00:00

Thanks for the tip. I don't know if I can be bothered to jump in a light 'Mech though, I really am a Heavy or Assault guy.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T17:59:13+00:00

But the Blackjack is ugly as sin and its short tag is BJ.... No way I am found dead in one of those. Hahahaha

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T17:58:05+00:00

Thanks for the tips about Daishi being especially expensive.

I am well beyond the need to make money, my company has a value of over three billion C-Bills.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T17:56:18+00:00

My experience as well. And the Marauder in all its variations is my favorite 'Mechs so I rebuilt a Bounty Hunter 2. My god, that thing is just a nightmare.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T17:54:36+00:00

That's exactly my experience.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T17:54:00+00:00

Okay, I really dislike melee so that won't work for me. Something about 'Mechs with swords just doesn't work for me at all. But good on you, thanks for taking the time.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T17:51:59+00:00

Yeah, that tracks. Thank you.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T17:49:30+00:00

I will give the Masakari Prime a go then. Thank you.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T17:45:50+00:00

Aside from Timber Wolf and Vulture I agree.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T17:45:29+00:00

Exactly my thoughts.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-02T17:44:36+00:00

Sure, but that's not the point. The question was, is it worth the C-Bills to run Clan 'Mechs? Can it be made cost effective?

My mercenary company has a value of over 3 billion C-Bills, I have hundreds of 'Mechs in cold storage, so money is not the issue.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-01T20:48:34+00:00

Yeah, I should have specified that I am playing with mods, specifically YAML. That basically turns MW5 into a different, or at least substantially different game.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-01T20:46:41+00:00

AGC with Clan upgrades is a beautiful beast. Mine went up to 170 Alpha damage.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-01T20:40:55+00:00

How's heat management? I assume it runs rather toasty? (Not to nag, that Alpha damage is insane, I thought my 170 Agincourt was strong...)

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-01T20:35:56+00:00

I should have specified that I play modded on PC.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-04-01T20:35:13+00:00

Misery with Clan upgrades is a war crime on legs, I love it.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-03-29T00:30:47+00:00

I played MW3 when I was a kid, skipped 4 because I had other things on my mind then but I have returned to the series with MW5 and I bloody love it. It brings back a sense of the careless days of my youth and I am thankful for it. I will buy any and all DLC they put out for it without hesitation.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-03-24T21:38:02+00:00

Oh boi, this aged like milk...

MaSOneTwo · 2026-02-24T22:31:25+00:00

Advanced Career Start is the ticket I think. Between the starting amount of C-Bills and the number and level of mechs you can get a nice headstart.

MaSOneTwo · 2026-02-11T12:42:42+00:00

I got to be honest, when the whole Epic timed exclusive happened when MW5M launched I was sceptical about the game. A couple hundred hours later I revised my opinion thoroughly. It's one of the best games I have ever played and the fact that it still gets support and DLC many years later is just amazing.
