Knee-mounted missile pods? Anti-infantry hull mines? Melee weapons? It’s all up to you. Thanks to an expanded mech-lab, you’re free to attach just about anything to any point on your mechs. The sheer number of weapons is staggering, and there’s few genuinely bad options. You can now choose which order weapons are fired in, and make granular tweaks to fire modes and ammo types. Pilot skills in general have seen an overhaul too, offering more options and multiple skill choices, making character builds as distinct as your hardware. There’s now five different kinds of melee attacks-kicks, punches, melee weapons, charges and the classic Death From Above-each with their own perks and tradeoffs, and pilot stats affecting them. Their new weakness is their lower mass, meaning that a running tackle from a much heavier mech will do absolutely terrifying amounts of collision damage. Instead, sensor locks (via unlocked pilot skills) are required to pin them down. Thanks to this, Light mechs are no longer deathtraps, as the evasion bonuses they gain from running fast aren’t magically drained by incoming fire. Sprinting no longer disables weapons, allowing you to take potshots while charging into battle. Hold still on a hilltop and you’re an easy target, but you can snipe targets with ease. Movement affects accuracy more on both ends of the scale. This is BattleTech with the training wheels taken off and replaced with flamethrowers.Įverything has changed, starting with movement. Almost every fundamental rule of the game has been rewritten to offer more tactical nuance, and the AI overhauled to let it pose a threat even on these more complex battlegrounds. While fundamentally familiar, every single aspect of the original game has been taken to the mechlab, stripped and upgraded into something vastly more complex.

There are three massive overhaul mods available for BattleTech, but given that a campaign with any of them is likely to take you dozens of hours, I'm only focusing on one, which I feel is the most polished and coherent of the three: BattleTech Advanced 3062.

There are of course plenty more options over on Nexus Mods to let you customize it to personal taste, but really, what you’re here for is the power of running a real mercenary operation, right? A dropship loaded with heavy weaponry, a mountain of salvage awaiting at the end of every operation. You can skip it after a while, but not playing it at all is nicer. Skip Intro - For some reason the game runs the intro animation every time you play.

Unofficial BattleTech Patch - Smaller and less comprehensive than it sounds, but it fixes a handful of old bugs that still plague the game to this day, the nastiest of which was the Brace order (telling a pilot to hunker down for a turn) not properly cooling down a mech.
