Piranha Games has released a new gameplay video for MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries. This three minute video showcases entirely new updates to some of the biomes that will be playable at launch.
As the press release reads, new enemy base structures will force you to rethink an approach on a case, and the video takes a look at various types of weather and terrain you will encounter (heavy fog, electrical storms, deep canyons requiring a Mech with jump jets because getting stuck down there suuuuuucks – trust me.)
The build update footage also demonstrates a more complete look at the damage that buildings can sustain (more on that very soon because everyone likes wrecking stuff!), and the explosions that will result when you blast an enemy helicopter out of the sky.
Enjoy!

The large scale destruction and all the particle FX for hits and showing damage/status look amazing. At 0:44 an enemy mech loses even one of its weapons. This is looking very promising and I never think that about mech games usually.
Yeah..I think the destruction/damage system looks really good…this game like you said is looking to be good…hope that’s the case in the end!
I never liked this . If i want mechs then i want high speed japan mechs in the future what dooing flips and fly in space . Not slow dumb american buildings whit cannons . . . .
I want Mechs to function like vehicles, not f’ing metal superheroes, except when I do want them to function like vehicles or high powered jets of course.

Also I’d be willing to bet he’s never once touched or played the Table Top game in his life and doesn’t know what LAM mechs are.

so you saying this is like mech assault? Well it does have mercenary mechanics.
No wait bot acount.
I am not a mech warrior fun but i always wanted a game that you could get into a mech and destroy tanks, helicopters and enemy bases, as opposed to other mech games that you fight only other mechs.
