High Burst Damage Highlander IIC Brawler - Mechwarrior Online The Daily Dose

[@albertluke372]

My viewing preference is how ever you play. Because I am here to learn tactics haha

[@saldiven2009]

For the usage of night-vision, I prefer to see the game as it is actually played. If the situation is such that I would also likely use night vision, and it's the best decision for the game circumstance, then that's what I want to see. Visual aesthetics are meaningless if it negatively impacts a player's performance in game.

[@krosigrim]

Baradul, your performance is more important than visual considerations. To justify that... we all play yea? Sometimes we gotta toggle between and find the best middle ground during a game.

[@quinntus2559]

correct... and if I want to see mediocre gameplay I can rewatch my on matches.

[@Kevvvinus1]

I totally don’t mind you having heat vision , I even prefer it when it’s necessary, don’t know why people bitch about it , keep up good work and don’t worry about mouners

[@999wilf999]

I like the thermal vision in these circumstances, it means I can tell what's going on too!

[@noscream3809]

definitely your performance. I can't understand the people who are watching for the view. I assume most of the viewers are here to see how you play to advance their own skills

[@great-matze8171]

Use Night Vision, Heat Vision, Vision from Marvel and any other Vision you like Bara, do your Thing. Cause thats why the Most of us are here for. I like the way you fight, how you explain situations while shooting Strangers in the butt, or the face. You're not only a Content Creator for the Big Boom in Tons of Endo-Steel, but a Teacher, maybe a kind of Mentor for some Boys an Girls out there on the Battlefield. I personally didnt care which kinda Vision you uses, as long as you keep going doing such a great job. Bara vor, noch ein Tor! Oder so 😂

[@Miranda_Ghost]

As to viewing preference, I appreciate your thoughts about people who complain, but I’m sad that it weighs on your mind at all. We all need to understand that using different visual modes with versatility is as important as using consumables and even weapons systems themselves! Some people would probably also complain about using radar in a combat flight simulator, even when using long range missiles designed to be fired Beyond Visual Range (BVR). The Mark I “Eyeball” is not always the best tool for the job, friends.

[@kairoshin]

I haven't played this game in about 2 years, but I still watch your videos daily for enjoyment. Your videos are a very valuable resource for people learning the game and wanting to get better, so I believe that should always be your primary concern, with aesthetics as an after thought. You are already multi-tasking enough by providing commentary, and that is necessary even though sometimes it distracts you from comms or things happening in-game. That being said, I do think there are some times when it would be more beneficial to learning players (and possibly yourself) to switch back to normal vision: a perfect example being the brawl with the Mad Dog in the first game around 6:00 where the heat vision makes it difficult to distinguish between friend and foe. Heat vision also makes it more difficult to target specific components (especially up close), and while that's less of an issue for an experienced pilot like yourself, it's more useful for learning players to clearly see what components you're deciding to target. Ultimately I wouldn't worry too much about it, keep it simple and focus on the gameplay as much as you can. You're never going to please everybody, and need not apologize for that.

[@tommyboy054]

I watch to learn how to play well, so if heat vision is apart of that, than I certainly don't mind.

[@VexShiza]

I don't see why people complain about it because you show us when we should be using these other vision options. When it's a good idea and when it helps. We are learning from that. People that complain don't really play the game. I also like how you compliment the enemy players and let us know what they are doing right. You are a true entertainer whose goal is to teach us about the game. I really enjoy that about your videos. Keep up the great work. The people complaining aren't important but I am glad that you take their complaints into consideration. You are truly a good person.

[@miklawson211]

I'm happy enough to play with heat vision so i'm happy to watch you play in it. I don't understand why people complain when it effects what you can see. As for performance, i wish i could play as well as you do , i have good days some of which are helped by the team, i have bad days, some of which are effected by the team. It's nice to watch others having a good game but i can understand your frustration when people block you or use you as armour and stop you falling back. Keep playing the good game.

[@shadowfrost6021]

I finally got a kill back on you, even though I was on the loosing team in that first game. Always love you videos. I think most of us use heat vision on that map. I certainly don't mind it. Keep up the great work.

[@robertmartinu8803]

Enhanced vision is part of Battletech. Complaining about it's proper usage is like objecting to the blinding & obscuration from a large missile salve for example! :)

[@CinnibarNet]

For the record, my viewing experience is much better when you have heat/night vision engaged and I can see the enemies. I'm interested in tactical gameplay, and seeing the enemies faster is more useful and interesting to me.

[@pushkin007sidamonidze7]

4:07 I recognised that voice, very first encounter of mine with baradul while under ATM fire xd. Keep up the good work bara, every video is as interesting as it is unique

[@kenalbus]

You battlefield performance is more important to me than what vision mode you use. Toggle that heat vision on when you need it!

[@5995Oblivion]

Performance is most important. Play however you want

[@bigdgrant]

Things I like-your a good player,for your second language your English is excellent,very good builds and advice. Things I don't like-you don't swear in German.Cmon give us some German swears plz.

[@Musabre]

Hah, best feedback. Funny to me as I'm a brit and i find myself swearing in German often xD

[@crazyshak4827]

As far as heat vision goes, use it how you normally would Bara. Especially on a map like Frozen City Classic, where you're essentially snowblind if you don't. Id rather see how you play to win. Also, I love this build! I run the same setup on my Scorch, and I LOVE it. Now you're making me want to get a Keeper as well...

[@tearstoneactual9773]

Baradul - I use heat vision a lot when I fight, especially on maps like Frozen City and HPG Manafold. Performance is king, and for me it's better because of the contrast. I have vision problems, so heat vision is always welcome. I don't know what other people are whining about.

[@themole70]

I don't mind heat vision at all. I use it often on my own matches.

[@perry92964]

heat vision is fine, when i play i use it so maybe im used to it especially on those snow maps i go snow blind if i dont use it

[@katkill]

I don't mind you having to switch into different vision modes. You should do what you need to do to have your best game.

[@connorhancock2624]

You are the goat at this game

[@bobdole3757]

I love seeing you play well. I would prefer to see the correct way to play be that night vision or heat. Watching your playstyle has improved my games a shit ton. Keep being awesome. Stealth marauder ftw.

[@sethcurlin861]

I think showing good gameplay is what is important. On that board I always use heat vision because you cannot see otherwise. I'm here to learn not get pretty visuals.

[@Grinchpryde]

For my taste not enough ammo. You only need one jump jet and fill it with more ammo.

[@aethernaught]

Much prefer heat vision, it's nice to be able to what is actually going on!

[@Ichaerus]

@Baradul: I don't mind heat vision or night vision. I wonder if you decided to use the Keeper for the Daily Dose after you came across one in your Clan Roguetech playthrough mission yesterday.

[@ChaosAvenger0]

Performance. Keep doing what you're doing!

[@inciacci549]

Funny how you show the Keeper right after the Battletech episode where the game throws you all the Highlanders.

[@johndillon8130]

Your personal enjoyment wins over visual appeal or even performance. If you're not having fun...we're not having fun! Whatever works best for you!

[@adamuk5037]

Loved the vid as always, leaving this for the algorithm.

[@akirasan1999]

night vision on dark maps is best or a switch from night to thermal for smoke/cold

[@Canadian2342]

Performance always over the use of thermos or night vision

[@FerreusVir]

Haven't even watched the video and the loadout already has me excited. LETS GET STUCK IN.

[@Jonathan9163]

Hi Bara, how comes you don't put one of the ammo in the head? I noticed you do it in a lot of builds and wondered if there was a reason?

[@TJKas]

Hi guys! Great videos on this channel. Very-very helpful. I`m new to MWO and was wondering is Raven with 3 large lasers worth it? I`m currently having fun with 2 large+1 medium lasers. Sorry for the offtop btw.

[@joem3172]

Play performance beats visuals. Use whichever view gives you the best tactical advantage. Win!

[@kappatalism6969]

Heat/Night vision have never bothered me in your videos.

[@durgymp]

In regards to visual appeal vs performance. I would like to see your performance, skills and tactics 100%. This game, in all honestly as much as I like it, it looks like shit for the year 2020. It look more like a good-looking game of 2013...

[@markchristy9704]

I have no problem when you use heat/night vision. Often it makes it easier to see what's going on (that's the point, right?). Especially on the Frozen City Classic map, visibility is absolute crap. Do what works for you. We're just along for the (very entertaining) ride in the jump seat! Thanks for the great content!

[@l4unchp4dgaming38]

Your performance IS my viewing experience. I'm here to watch you.

[@cdanielh128]

I am here to learn. Do what you have to.

[@yeagerlexics540]

I love this Mech thank you for making this video and showing it's power. I personally like it better with AC/20s on it because it seems to run much cooler with them. Might just be me?

[@tacenda3250]

Do you prefer this over The Scorch?

[@Twincobra13]

Vision-wise, do what you gotta do. If it improves your performance, it not only helps you, but your teammates as well.

[@greatmoney]

Forget the "Heat Vision Haters." Do your thing, mate.

[@jsuxatgames]

Use whatever vision you need at the moment. No one will watch, if while you are catering to fools, you get destroyed by a target you didn't see coming.

[@zer0nix]

Night vision or no, you should use max settings for everything!

[@hgbugalou]

Cooking with Baradul, today's recipe: Peppered chickens.

[@jessefeldstein1618]

As long as your majestic goatee is in color, it's all good.

[@psyantologist]

Vision when needed. Don't apologize for using core game features. That only encourages whiners to whine more.

[@RenzorTheRed]

This is like the Scorch meta. With JJ's.

[@darrenskjoelsvold]

For the first match for that map, you aren't the only one who can't see anything. Use heat vision.

[@RoamGaming]

If I am watching you than your playing performance is more important. If i am playing against you than the youtube viewing experience is more important. :)

[@bengoodheart3705]

My vote is for you to use whatever means that helps you perform best.

[@justincarlozmaxino1100]

Performance first but there has to be a minimum visual experience but in that map there's no reason not to be in HeatVis otherwise you can't see

[@justincarlozmaxino1100]

Ian Robertson So you wanna see Heatvision gameplay 24/7? Lmao

[@Alzorath]

Ah, thought I was the only one who regularly ran this build... (seriously, had never seen another player using it)

[@Alzorath]

@Ian Robertson It's one of the easiest mechs to get kills and 600+ damage with a match, even on a bad day with a passive team, so they'd be doing it wrong lol. It is the quintessential "tip of the spear" type mech.

[@PreacherwithoutaPulpit]

As Performance and I have to ask those that disagree why they wouldn't want to see the most effective use of a Mech/Load Out, I mean it's fun to watch but learning's good right?

[@lhommex5967]

I want you to "Crush your enemies. See them driven before you. And hear the lamentations of their women!!!!" by any means necessary!

[@sirdavus1458]

There ist a mad cat build thats 2 Lb20x and SRMs too, isnt mad cat better because its smaller? Highlander II is such a easy target...

[@TheArchaos]

Depends, mad cat has some pretty bad hit boxes, once the arms get shot off, its just dead weight. The highlander is rarely seen on the battlefield so might catch some newbies off guard with the sheer destructive potential.

[@Grinchpryde]

Highlander IIC has way better mobility and better hitboxes for brawling. For this this loadout go with Highlander IIC or Marauder IIC (Scorch).

[@lustreaux]

performance > visual

[@chrisadams7216]

How you get so much c bills

[@Cbamptronious]

Premium time + lots of c-bill bonuses like components destroyed, lance in formation, etc + being a skilled pilot with high damage output.

[@chrisadams7216]

Caseton how you get premium time as standard

[@casssmith2002]

I am wanting you to win. You use whatever means at your disposal to accomplish that mission. Move out Mechwarrior!

[@micksumsel3509]

I don't see any good reason to complain about heat vision or night vision. If you can see better with it, we do so, too, don't we? I mean, it is authentic gameplay, you use it to be able to play better. I actually learned a bit from your videos how and when to utilise these functions for a benefit. And by the way, your videos should not be watched on a small smartphone screen anyway.

[@flow5tate346]

Nice to see a 1K dmg Veagle take the L. Hi Black Caiman! XD

[@SierraSierraFoxtrot]

I will never understand who exactly complains about heat vision. Is there such a thing as reverse colour blindness? people who can't see in black and white?

[@Talon771]

Random comment for channel interaction.

[@r30413]

the...scorchlander...

[@TheFishman180]

It would suck if you kept losing because you couldn’t see

[@social3ngin33rin]

i guess a little bit of both? lol

[@wugrut]

Balance. Do what is pragmatic.

[@d-obvious]

I use black white for most snow maps for the same reasons you do. I prefer to watch you play in optimal conditions. The colour of the view is irrelevant

[@thorstenschafer6907]

Performance all day long.

[@benlaskowski357]

Use your heat vision when you can, and I watch your vids for the builds and their performance. Let haters hate; they're FUCKWITS anyway.

[@ChayosDimension]

Put in to your performance first Mr.Baradul.

[@nbsmith100]

performance

[@dystopianparadise5916]

Hey

[@Texas_Red_01]

I would rather that you optimize your game play. I learn from watching you play. I do not want you to handicap yourself on purpose. That's not a lesson I want to learn. :-)

[@ericneiman9887]

Poor performance = a poor viewing experience. Go b&w and be molton =)

[@sanjeever82]

hey that map is already black and white to begin with. i'd rather see you shred some targets than watch the graphics. i say NO WORRIES with heat vision!

[@OS2tuxbird]

Definitely not your performance. We want to see :D Death is over rated.
