Power through Clan Equipment - Yet Another Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries Modded Episode 40

[@nphil93992]

I'm currently only playing the base game, but i prefer salvage to C bills even there. It makes the game a bit more interesting imho. Before you all comment, the mods get installed this weekend once i've built my new PC😁😁

[@danielross7983]

Installing the YAML mods (YAML/YAW/YACM/YAS) is easy.. but I'm having problems with the Pilot mod and Mod Compatibility. Please let me know how it goes. I'm trying to build the same game.

[@ryanjohnstone8957]

I'm loving the whole "Barras used Atlas dealership" thing you've got going on 😆

[@danielross7983]

Thanks Baradul... Could you please post a screenshot of your mod list in-game? I am trying to build the same set up, but can't get the Pilot mod to work. Installing the compatibility mod crashes the game as it launches... as does the Pilot mod. Would really appreciate it.

[@AlexanderGarcia-bx7kg]

I'm commenting so that if its posted I get notified. I really want to play this build

[@Baradul]

I use my own steam library. everything works quite nice there. steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2859785987

[@AlexanderGarcia-bx7kg]

@@Baradul love you bara

[@danielross7983]

@@Baradul Thanks for that. Really useful. I have MW5 on EPIC launcher, so maybe that's why the mods don't work or load properly? I'll try doing it through steam...

[@voidpelican]

Hurray, after like several weeks of people occasionally reminding him, Bara finally remembered he had a T4 UAC-5 sitting around uselessly on the hero Zeus never runs, and stripped it. At this point he should finally be able to run all T4/T5 UAC-5s on his hero King Crab which he uses every mission, which I think still uses two T1 UACs. My autism/OCD can finally settle down, lol. EDIT: I don't know if this is something Bara would be interesting in doing, but I think it would be really neat in some upcoming episode of this series for him to spend some significant time reviewing all his current mechs, considering a specific role for each of them that he wants to keep (he probably will get rid of some), and optimizing the equipment for each the best he can or making a plan for future equipment upgrades - rather than just focusing in a scattershot fashion on each new mech that he runs across. This seems like it would be really helpful in preparing for the end-game/level 250 Coyote missions. I'm sure some some viewers much prefer the in-game action but I know a lot of us also like the planning/theory-crafting mech lab stuff a lot!

[@dazley8021]

Love that RAC action.... and no Ghost Heat in sight :D Makes a ballistic nerd happy.

[@paganhorde4463]

Love this sound of Racs in the morning

[@docthorr]

Everytime you wear that Tshirt, I feel better about myself 😊

[@Baradul]

Holy macaroni = best macaroni!

[@rickusjamesus]

If I'm not mistaken, Mantis was the pilot you lost to the melee Banshee several episodes back that when you did the mission to save her it didn't give you the popup saying that you saved her and since that time she's appeared as both dead and healthy

[@orbitalbutt6757]

Mantis is trapped in the Bardo

[@justinfriesen7155]

I think you should be grabbing some clan arrow ammo. At some point you’ll probably convert your arrows to clan instead of IS…

[@zak9129]

wicked, I RAC5 my King crab and it is nasty!

[@josephschulte1073]

The 380/400 tonnage drops is making my eyeball twitch Bara. Just drop one of the 100 tonners to a banshee/corsair and you can run the superheavy as well as the rachammer and one of the Atlas/KGC and be at 400.

[@manjujuju]

Reload last save point to get back wasted atlas, you did the same thing last episode 😂 also, you forgot to install predictive tc for the rac-hammer

[@cszolee7979]

ATMs are like in MWO, just one ammo (Clan ATM Ammo). The missile's damage is dynamically adjusted based on travel distance.

[@Seranov]

Yup, this! ATMs are easy enough to use, though you might want to use high tier ones with a Range Battle Computer in order to minimize the minimum range.

[@lidlett9883]

Table top og battle tech. Artemis fc was attached to the launcher

[@tomduke1297]

i think your "face window" could go to the upper-middle-right just below the credits in base/enemyinfo in battle, as far as i can tell the important stuff is always on the left side.

[@narutopendragon1705]

I suggest putting your head on the right hand side as most of the important detail seems to be on the left in this game

[@asd1234asd1234asd]

I would love to see that awesome ppc build, that seems to be fun

[@Plastikdoom]

I have done the rac hammer build, is mildly fun to me…but Emmy thing, a decked out 732-b…haha. My favorite and best mech to me, especially once you got clan tech…can turn it fully into the monster it’s supposed to be. With nore than 8-20 rounds of fire, lol.

[@tristanjosephbaldeo7145]

Love the king crab

[@MarvinWestmaas]

Not only can you find clan weapons Bara... you can also find lots of clan ammo in the stores, just jump around a bit. Most of the times you can buy a weapon the same store has also ammo for it and if not some other will.

[@WildChildfromBodom]

If you build mech and you have a full bay. Just move one of the mechs to cold storage and the one built shows up in the storage bay. You don't lose them

[@r3kk3n54]

what I do not like about the star map is that it is not interactive.. if you do a zone then that zone should go to the faction you fought for... also if a faction gets too big there should have been some special incursion missions

[@Novasterrr]

Hope a mod or MW6 for this

[@foobar1735]

One... two... five! (three, sir!) :D

[@LoliFoxQueen]

Baradul, don't forget about all the goodies you could buy on Tigress. There was some clan equipment and a 300 rated engine there you could buy.

[@zerofoxgavin1286]

Mantis is dead? F**k it, Weekend at Bernies here we come!

[@JS-mh9uu]

That Warhammer is the perfect frame to make a quad ER PPC build.

[@bigsarge2085]

✌✌

[@minard13son]

if you have pirate tech enabled, this is what the chain cannons are like. you can find them much sooner in the timeline, and theyre much easier on heat

[@CabinFevr]

I wish the mods would be available as DLC for console. They add alot of depth to the game

[@LecherousCthulhu]

I really hope that the modders add in a full clan wars mod. So we can fight against and do missions for the clans on a large scale. I know there's clan missions in the game right now, but a full scale clan invasion mod would be awesome

[@ChadKanotz]

I put black carapace armor in my RAC Hammer. It is the best thing ever.

[@ZacHawkins42]

49:30 Warhammer romancing advice

[@thescotsman9825]

There is a mod that lets you buy salvage above the granted salvage for a cost markup, really helps when you get those got to have items :)

[@SinnfullDuck]

Im new to the game and it seems most people run ballistic or missle weapons but I really enjoy lasers for some reason. Is there a way to make a laser boat work in the clan era? Not sure if there are good clan lasers or if lasers just don't hold up later in the game.

[@Texray1]

I use more lasers than anything. I never use PPCs but lots of ER Pulse and regular lasers. Some Heavy lasers here and there as well if I have enough heat management. Lasers seem to work better on artillery than missiles or ballistics so I always have a speedy laser boat ready for Beach Head missions.

[@bblvrable]

I think the RACs should sound like a C-RAM or a GAU-8.

[@albertko1]

Still waiting to see if you can find that supercharger or even a clan masc to make crazy melee mech. Also, you could try multiple Long Toms on the HAG marauder super heavy

[@shadowkiller1166]

I built a sleipnir with 4 of those clan lb 10s and went at 64 mph because of clan xl engine it was terrifying

[@andyr5579]

There is one advantage to streak which you might be overlooking (maybe not). You don’t need to load up with extra ammo. It all hits, guaranteed. That means you can save tonnage AND slots. Worth bearing I mind, right?

[@hgbugalou]

The should be a mod that shows a column for value per share on the end mission screen.

[@Gozza71]

To fix the issue of salvaged mechs not appearing exit Mech lab and reenter it and they will appear for bay assignment.

[@corranhuss]

this, it also was fixed in an update i downloaded yesterday

[@grubdug3156]

Yay. Evening is saved. BTW.... What happened to the live streams?

[@jambaliah7056]

I watched all the videos, on Twich and on KZbin.... need more.... I'm addicted....

[@indignantlamentation6307]

Comstar would like to thank you for your atlas donation to help fight the clans.

[@thescottsman1996]

it funny, but rifles are the best ballistic weapons in the vanilla game, lighter, harder hitting, and as you get larger, actually go faster.

[@elcdow2726]

You're severely underrating the LB10Xs... A far better weapon than the ER PPCs you bought. ~10.5 DPS vs 3 DPS on the PPC. 300% DPS for 50% more weight (say 100% with ammo)

[@BLACKFLAME4941]

arthur morgab is the red dead guy

[@morhadel]

do you ever list what mods your running? this is what I've been waiting for to play the game.

[@SteelDragon78]

Marauder squad go 125 + 100 + 100 + 75 = win

[@gr3ndl3r]

What mod is it that lets you train pilots?

[@andrejtolotschin613]

Pilot Overhaul from Nexusmods

[@darenwood9164]

Can you use mods in consoles?

[@andrejtolotschin613]

You mean on consoles like PlayStation or Xbox? Unfortunately, no.

[@AlexanderGarcia-bx7kg]

This is probably a dumb question but does anyone have the mod list for this game build

[@TheInsomniaddict]

Check a few videos back, Bara posted his mod list.

[@perry92964]

why do i expect to see a hero bara hammer in the near future

[@windi3798]

why not take a multi mission with a battlefield mission at the end then you have enough salvage for the good stuff . you can get artemis bc for your mechs but it comes really late in the game

[@capt.graybeard]

I don't know if anybody's ever told you this but if you would slow down a little bit I know you're trying to keep everything within about an hour's time but if you would just slow down a little bit and pay attention to what you're doing you would probably find yourself seeing all the things that you miss and not having to get all excited about stuff. Also if you could miniaturize your picture or delete it all the way that would be very helpful.

[@voidpelican]

People have been telling Bara this kind of thing for a while - I certainly have before, lol. Unfortunately, he seems to have a serious case of "streamer brain," i.e. getting "fun" content out as quickly and as often as possible. Plus I think it's just his personality to play aggressively, go quickly, and miss things some of his viewers consider "obvious." This is the inevitable downside of the good things he brings to MW streaming, which are his jovial nature, excitability, and general "zaniness" which is otherwise very entertaining.

[@Evocatorum]

What's the deal with his distaste of stream missile systems? It's literally the sniper rifle of missile systems vs the shotgun. There's a reason why, after a certain point in the game, you can can only find IS launchers as LRMxx-ST+ArtIV. Oh, not to mention the better damage. Also, how does it not bug anyone else that he keeps ditching his pilots and ignoring the pilots chassis affinity???? It's literally deducting 10% off of all his mechs just to get "the best" pilots while also being required to further train the pilots back up. I think my Goblin, who I got at 40, is now 70+ and mastered like 3 different chassis at this point (3035-3063).

[@rolandlee6898]

The scale of things always bugs me... The mech weights are off by a factor or 10 at the least, given their sizes.

[@jambaliah7056]

i vote 4 Stundenlange Streams

[@felderup]

i restart when i get a bad bug. i have the privilege of not being a streamer.
