That poor, poor cicada pilot. on patrol in your lovely little light mech and stumble across 4 assault mechs. time to stick your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye.
Dear Mr. Tex, do you happen to have a list of the in game mechs that can mount Auto Cannons? I am trying to do AC builds but cannot find any Heavy and Assault mechs that can mount them. I do have all the DLC's. Can you help? Every thing I look up online leads to a Reddit spread sheet that lists the mechs and the number of hard points available but not what can go on them. If you could name a couple from your play through that would be awesome. Thanks in advance. Will Box Station only be available to the BPL? Or will you eventually Allow some of the general public onto the server? Hail ZORG!!!
about rumble from 3 minute – because people are just copycats by nature, they afraid to not fit in something, in the group that surrounds them or one they interested . This make them feel safe, comfy, *normal*, maybe useful, maybe cool.
I too am a descendant of an Okie Grandma who grew up on a farm during the Great Depression (and I adore Battletech) so that's kind of neat. Though she was Scots and would never spend a penny on lotto tickets as she was too busy pinching pennies so hard that they screamed 😉 😀
Professor Tex, as someone who tends to play the Battletech game while trying to absolutely maximize my mechs, i would like to thank you. Your playstyle has inspired me to try builds i would normally not have even considered, and has resultet in some rather amusing, and surprisingly effective, mech builds. Like my banshee kitted out for absolute melee stability damage, with a light mech specced pilot, which i now use to run right up and punch things over with.
Tex, are you running the DLCs? Im at the end and never came across an annihilator or the snub nosed PPCs or UAC/20s lol my crabs run hot running twin ac 20s while laughing the feeble flaw of sending light/medium mechs to an assault fight lol
Ever since I started playing video games purely to enjoy them, a few years ago, and avoiding walkthroughs, etc, I have experienced levels of enjoyment I never felt before. Highly recommend. BTA 3062 has been my post-work crack the last few weeks
The medical team was already at the airlock when the leopard docked with the Argo, trauma kits at the ready… But the apparent lack of injuries left them speechless. "Even… Even Scrombles is okay?" one medtech asked the other as the healthy pilots marched past them, clapping each other on the back. The second man, a veteran of two years with the Slaughter Division, patted Scrombles down and checked him for blood, but simply shrugged when no injuries were detected. Hell, the big oaf didn't even look dazed. Well… No more dazed than normal. The medtechs even counted the pilots to see if anyone had been KIA, but a quick headcount showed four very intact pilots. The first just stared at the older man. "So… What do we do?" "Hrm. Beer." "Beer?" "Definitely beer. Let's roll, rookie."
So there's this old Russian cartoon from the late 80's. At the very beginning this kid is coming down the stairs of his apartment and he,s eating a sandwich. And the cat thats napping on a windowsill wakes up and he has no sandwich of his own but he goes "hello Uncle Fyodor; you know you're eating that incorrectly…"
Dark Souls has such a weird community. Over time the meta has been refined with near mathematical precision, and a lot of people hate anything which breaks the mold. BUT Its also a community which will laud members for doing something stupid and weird and not remotely meta, like beating DS2 with dual wield poison infused ladles while fatrolling in crossdress.
Sadly the former is usually louder than the latter though.
I understand what you're saying. I admit I've been tempted off and on to try to throw some advice or hints your way, but I quickly realized it wasn't my place to do so, so I haven't. While there have been times where watching you play has been somewhat painful from a serious gamer and tactician's standpoint, I get that you're just doing this for fun and we should all just relax and let each other enjoy things. In fact, with a relaxed attitude one can even find the times that you completely screw something up or do something totally asinine to be absolutely entertaining! 😉 In any event, I enjoy watching you play and wouldn't ask you to change a thing. Keep doing things your way and keep making these awesome videos and stay safe out there!
I understand that the Tube frowns on cussing but I would have loved to have been able to hear Tex's rant about the Saturday Night Special blow you damned hand off edition, not Goat's music even though I do enjoy it…LOL EDIT for: Oof I see Tex has already addressed this with his pinned comment, so I too have now made a Dumb see it happens to everyone…
Totally agree about "optimized builds" ruining MMOs. They created a variety of ways to build your character to match your style of play- but then competitive play drove optimum builds. Then so many people used these optimum builds that the games were balanced around them. The result, fewer ways to build your character to play your way.
Never in my 37 years of life have I ever heard the phrase, "got served up a hot plate of done-ion rings." It's now my personal life goal to use it correctly at least once before next year. 27:25 – Thunderbolt? More like… wait, I got something for this. Uh… More like *DONE*derbolt, amirite? Hah. Got'em. 28:58 – Well, MOSTLY white, let's be real here. 35:27 – Rolling my eyes? Hell, I'm giggling like a whackadoo and my neighbour is wondering what the hell's wrong with me at 0130. 46:30 – Oh yeah, that alloy garbage that every hardware store budget drawer- and cabinet-handle is made from. ZAMAK. Crumbles under a stern glance. 1:10:23 – … And we shall call it, "BRRRRT's Bees."
Yes, the outro music randomly blared in at the middle. I made one dumb. Its okay. Embrace the weird. This is the channel and place for it.
The cicada pilot came around the corner and thought "Biggie Biggie Biggie WTF Buck?"
Holy crap! I'm in the corpse closet!
You should Outfit a Blacknight with all small lasers and call it the microwave
I kind of wish there was more folks on my ship that were into Battletech.

Loving the idea of you playing BTA. The target in it has to be having all the pilots that you done voice packs for.

That musical interlude feels like it was meant to cover us what Tex was saying to avoid lawsuits. I'm aware it wasn't, but still funny to consider.
Tex, I greatly enjoy watching you play and hearing your commentary, keep up the great work. It's entertaining to watch.

Ok, I've gotta know…WHO is that band playing the kazoo Red River rock song?

For me it's not how a youtuber plays a game, it's more a question of are they entertaining or informative.
Tex, games are meant to be fun, its as much about your enjoyment as it is ours

Your the engineer and you can wreck this train however you want, and blastin those hip tunes I'll ride it on into the station.
Old BSG had better theme music
speed is more important than firepower….. i don't think i've seen a locust outrun a round from an AC20 🙂

Scrombles punch: water's wet, sky is up.
Have Fun: FUCK the haters

Tex, please play the game worse… much much worse. That'll teach 'em.

bud, if you do one, 1, , tex talks battletech a year, ill be ecstatic. you're amazing and i love the content.
“I’m playing the game to enjoy myself.” That is how you should play every video game ever.

I love the kazoo music at the beginning. Keep the weird alive!
