Get the mod that eliminates structure tonnage for Battletech. Balances out the difficulty spike immensely when you can load up your mech to the tits with dakka, armor and enough heat sinks to make clanners cry.
Eh, why not, the balancing was shit anyway no point in trying to make it actually balanced at the cost of fun. That MechAssault mod is looking nice.
What makes it balanced is that you're a player who can do custom loadouts and actually shoot well, the game isn't very hard and the real bulk of it's difficulty comes from doing multi-mission contracts where you end up having to field the B and C team mechs.
I run Mechwarrior 5 with the mod list I'm attaching to the post. I been using MW5 Mod Organizer to handle the mods and it's pretty good.
Mechwarrior 5 is pretty damned great with the Yet Another Mechlab mod + all the addons. Adds a shitload of mechs and the like. There's a few others, Von Biomes, a mission pack called Coyote, an AI overhaul called TT Rules. I can find some more but those alone make it a completely new game in career mode.
Still getting used to it since I don't use it often. I'll get something done...eventually.
Noted, much appreciated!
YAML is mandatory, change my mind. You can't. I try not to go overboard with the mods since my game gets real buggy otherwise, load order be damned. Never got TT Rules to work properly and...well I talked about Coyote. Man I fuckin' hate Roguetech. I like the amount of effort they put into it but given the awful lag, long load time even on an SSD, the terrible hit chances no matter how good my Mechwarrior is and how accurate the weapons are and if I only fire one weapon once, among many other issues...just not worth it. Also yeah having to relaunch the client frequently or suffer, not to mention keeping the save count to an absolute minimum (both are vanilla BT issues due to the engine version) sucks tranny cock. Speaking of tranny cock.
Big reason why your mechwarriors accuracy sucks so much is because they have to do so many sortie's in a mech just to get comfortable in it. It creates a bell curve of enjoyment where it starts off being nearly impossible to hit anything, then begins to get fun where each side is pretty evenly matched, then finally becomes way to easy because by that point you have a full minmaxed lance that plows through everything.
I did notice that, however it's just so slow. Once I get a mech I "personally" (my character at least) want to pilot, I have to bring the "usuals" onto several very weak missions just so he can learn to pilot this one fucking Mech. And then I have to do that with the rest of the Mechwarriors if I get better Mechs? Nah, my max level Mechwarriors should be able to be at least competent in any Mech, at least of the class they mostly use, it's retarded.
God I hate convoy missions in Roguetech for that exact reason, I get wanting to make the game as accurate to the tabletop as possible and I respect that, but changes like this without thinking of the consequences (for years now) is also retarded.
Look its well known that Canopus is the Vegas of Battletech including prostitution. But saying the Clans should start delving into them..
In his defence, he did say that in response to a joke about the Sea Foxes doing anything for money. Still weird, but its not like he said it out of the blue.
I don't know how someone conscientious enough to call it sex work instead of prostitution can talk about something literally called a caste system with anything other than revulsion. The clan's genius solution to mankind's inherent biases and bigotry being a strictly collated class system will always be funny regardless.
Funny thing though: Terra's Moon has one of the biggest and seediest Prostittion business cities in the IS. Maybe Clan Sea Fox can do something with that (if they survived the IlClan trial, Mars got the bad end of the Falcon's claw)
Eh, clan officials are known to turn a blind eye to recreational sex so long as birth control is used, to be fair. What I'm wondering is if Sea Fox will just pull folks from other castes into their sex industry, or say 'fuck the rules, we like money' and use clan genetic engineering to create a whole new caste of exotic prostitutes to compete with the Canopians.
The merchants will bring out the huge calculator and state "My Khan it's cheaper to conquer the Magistracy then breed new toys. War it is!"
And here we get to the crux of the fetish.
Either is a horrifying implication. The first would be creating a prostitute dark caste, the second is an entire caste whose role in life is to be a dedicated fucksteak. Guess we know Bryan Young’s fetish.
