I showed my kid this ancient video when they got into battle tech. It might look and sound like crap now, but I was so vindicated when they made me play it three more times.

"Ammunition level... Critical"

Aah. This was the point where I realized the joy of stompy metal feet.

I have found mechwarrior 5 to still capture the classic feel, myself. I have a few mods on though, the mech customization made me sad until I opened it up.

Really want clan mechs in there though. Due to my mechwarrior 2 background, it doesn't feel right to not have image enhancement.

What mods do you recommend? Would it be lacking if I went with the Xbox version?

[–] socialjusticewizard 1 points 1 year ago

Nah it's pretty good without mods, the mech customization is just a lot more limited.

Yet Another Clan Mech adds a bunch of IIC variants and a handful of Clan mechs. (Make sure to get Yet Another Weapon Clan too)
