Wonder if people are getting that mission mixed up with the MW4 Mercs mission where you push the Black Cobras' shit in for the second time. Don't remember APCs in that mission at all, but a fair number of vees and it looks like a moon.
Oh, Vengeance, not Mercs. People play Vengeance? Like, more than once? But yes, I definitely was referring to that mission against Burr's Black Cobras, which is coincidentally named Moonlight since it takes place on Talon, Wernke's moon.
It's OK. Not great, but OK. That one laser is dumb (Bombast? Bombard?), it got cut for Mercs. Black Knight expansion's a little better.
I know. I went back and played both Vengeance and Black Knight after a few playthroughs of Mercs. Overall quality is night and day.
Yeah, but you can take the Davion path in Mercs and kick Nondi Steiner's teeth in personally on Tharkad itself. Best part is getting paid to do so, too.
I want to say Nondi's got either a Fafnir or a Hauptmann in that mission (thinking Hauptmann) and utterly thrashing her in a Hunchback just because I could was fucking GRATIFYING. MW4M missions get very heavy on attrition but your lancemates can soak shit while you hammer things with a HGauss Hunchie. AI seems to gravitate towards "biggest perceived threat" sometimes (if you dump a ton of damage on them right away you're their BEST FUCKING FRIEND, but let lancemates draw aggro and buttfuck them with HGauss shots and you can manage)
She does indeed have a Hauptmann. Didn't save her when I rolled up with 2 Lances of ClanTech Omnis thanks to my Dragoon sponsorship. God, I love the Deimos. BRRRRRRRTTTTTTTT.
Honestly if someone finds a way to recreate MW3 in the UE4 engine (and make the AI not-shit) I'd be pretty jazzed. Kicking the shit out of the Jags is timeless.
Please, I had issues with that, too. The physics engine liked to shit itself and crash the game whenever I bumped into anything. Didn't realize until later there was some sort of fix for that.
That's the right attitude to have. You're at the mercy of the dice, so you might as well have fun and blow shit up. Or yourself up. Or both. The last two 'mechs in a skirmish KO'ing one another always result in a fun story to tell later.
Yes but HOW did you explode? Did you get a bad roll on MASC? Reactor breach? The details are the most fun thing.
Got shot by a PPC through my right shoulder, critted and proceed to cook off my Machine gun ammo with exploded taking the Fusion engine with it.
I was doing an LP of mw3 a while back and then the next day after recording the first few eps I turned on my computer and simply could not get the game to run like it did the day before; even after trying everything at my disposal for several hours. I had a theory for what was happening but I can't remember what it was anymore.
