Now that modding is available for MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries and has had time to mature a bit, we are going to install a few and see what they add to the experience. All of the mods were downloaded from NexusMods.com. When modding becomes officially supported through the epic store we will explore that, but for now we will stick with Nexus Mods. Our basic overview for this series is based on the historical Russian WW1 Air Force unit nicknamed "The Night Witches." The 588th Night Bomber Regiment was one of three all female Soviet bomber regiments in WW1. They flew low altitude bombing missions in what were essentially crop dusters. You should definitely look them up and learn more about them. For game purposes this means that we will be employing only female mech jockeys and our main character will also be female. This is made possible by the Career MODe mode. Our full list of mods is as follows:
MW5 Compatibility pack
MW5 Mercs Reloaded (beta)
includes the Laser Fix and Thermal Vision mods
Yet another weapon
Hanger Spawn Location
Career MODe
Table Top Rulez Lancemate AI
includes the Sensor and Jump Jet mods.
Table Top Rulez Enemy AI
Table Top Rulez Rescale
Better Spawns
Ultra Visual and Weather
Paint Theme Saving
Techy Hud
MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries is a first person / sim game based on the Battletech tabletop universe. At launch it will include a campaign mode as well as solo and co-op instant action scenarios and custom scenarios. Modding will be supported. It is a fast paced, entertaining window into the Battletech universe from the makers of Mech Warrior Online. As I type this, it is in closed Beta accessible to pre-orders. It launches on Dec 10, 2019 and is available on the Epic Games Store.
