The best thing about this game was the narrator at the start of the game; the voice acting was superb, unlike every other game, completely believeable. The officer who gave your briefings and so on, completely believable. No MW title has matched 3, and it's been 13 years. How sad is that?

This game had the BEST immersion

This is definitely the best classic Mechwarrior intro cinematic. No goofy live action mixed with dated CG, or the bad acting that came with it. The combatants also displayed intelligent tactics that made the battlefield scenario feel real. The horrifying screams of the dying soldiers. Perfection

I don't know, about the intelligent actions if it was reality the atlas should have fired weapons while closing fullspeed to put his battlefist in the mix instead of just walking out and standing but yes the rest is pretty good. I like the mw4 one more despite the much dumber choices the lanceleader makes

How typical of the Smoke Jaguars to waste a PPC blast on a single soldier.

If I understand correctly they were one of if not the most brutal clan. Even the canon books and games mention they were hard and brutal to those they occupied, especially to civilians. That's why they were target by the IS for total annihilation. Even Clan Wolf didn't like them not to mention the Nova cats

+cv .echeveste A number of the Clan sourcebooks, including ones that speak about the origins of the Clans, explain the Smoke Jaguars in detail -- they were harsh to everyone, even themselves, believing in "survival of the fittest". Their training regimen was even more harsh than the Jade Falcon one (already considered one of the most difficult in the Clans). Only Clan Blood Spirit had a tougher warrior training program (by far, the toughest out of all of the Clans, hands down).

Timberwolf is most likely Prime configuration too, but visible 2 M-Lasers 4 machine guns, and 2 LRM20

MechAssault games usually aren't considered canon to the original series' storyline. MechAssault was actually seen in the eyes of many old BattleTech fans as a bastardization of what the series is about. All the MechWarrior games take place before the events of MechAssault. Also; BattleTech takes place in the "Inner Sphere", which is a collection of thousands of planets that humans have colonized. If one world blows up- there's many, many more to live on.

I think some people forget that these Jaguars are cadets and did not fully understand how capable and powerful their mechs were in comparison

The last Mech Warrior game I played for the longest time was MWII: Lone Wolf. Then I learned of Mech Warrior Online. Nothing between, until you.

Leave it to Smoke Jaguars to slaughter infantry and legged scouts rather then looking for true prey.

+Mark Balcombe Yeah, MC 2 was great, much better than this heap of junk. All you do is run and shoot their legs off. If you're the slightest bit careless you get blasted to oblivion by a larger mech with high ac. In mechcommander you could at least use some strategy and tactics.

MC1 was my favorite

wow this bring me WAY back

This, Ztar Craft and Putt Putt were my childhood PC games.

I played so much mechwarrior when I was 5/6 years old I wanted to join the army just to become a mech pilot...

I love the BattleMech 'Mechs. None of this Gundam or Eva jumping around, or even the limited agility of Warhammer 40k Dreadnoughts, just big, umbering yet somehow graceful, walking tanks.

I like how the Thor was just standing there and not destroying the remaining firefly.

Surat overheated his mech using PPCs on infantry.

I've had it since it's release. It's lasted that long.

I still have the CDs for this game and the expansion, Pirate's Moon. I wish I had an optical drive on my modern computer to RUN the game.

Боже! Какая это была офигенная игра)))

"Die Clanner..." Good stuff.

+TymeTwyster Last Looking back on this though...they're kind of asking us to presume clan-borns are pretty dumb. Two mech pilots charged alone into enemy territory where they were clearly outnumbered and didn't even cover each other when both were still alive, nor retreat when one was slagged? That's pretty boneheaded... ...the line is still pretty badass though. :3

Clanners are warriors, not soldiers. They don't fight wars, they fight a series of single combat engagements for the most part. They likely underbid this one anyways, and they might've been dishonored pilots looking for an opportunity to get some honor back (by going on a suicide mission).

This opening makes the Thor look like a unstoppable monster but really they are kind of squishy

In MWO, yes, but in the lore, they were pretty scary pieces of machinery. Fast, agile, a lot of armor and powerful weaponry to boot.

***** Because it has a very loose basis in the lore. It was quite nice in that game.

I don't know about MWO, but the Thor was only decent at mid to long range in the tabletop game, similar to the medium Griffin. Close up, the PPC and LRMs are outmatched by medium lasers and SRMs. The Mad Cat was a beast though.
