It's a shame that the campaign will be shown from the point of view of the antagonist, and not the Clans with their views. Plus, it is already clear that there will be internal conflicts. As I wrote earlier, there will be snot and whining against the background of the actions of the Clan, condemnation. I also didn't expect Russ Bullock to talk about the Smoke Jaguars as a sinister clan with mean deeds. As if Nova Cat aren't frostbitten or Great Houses are saints. They also did a lot of things during the succession wars and were more violent in military operations. It is believed that we will be shown a story about the traitorous hero of the Smoky Jaguars in the style of Trent. If all this is confirmed, I will make a refund and write a negative review. Fans of Clans and indeed fans of the universe are waiting for a normal story, not an internal conflict with condemnations. It's sad that we decided to go down this path.
This is not the way of the Clans.

"For such an extremely hawkish Clan, this is more than the norm. For most of the other Clans, it is also quite normal. For the Sphere, in principle, too, but with one caveat - by that time they simply stupidly did not have warships and there was simply nothing to bombard. As they appeared (and when they were before), orbital bombing was also used, including with the use of weapons of mass destruction.



In general, such snotiness was to be expected - now it is a trend."

Listen carefully to the melody at the beginning of the MW5: Clans trailer, where the commander calls the Clan. The sounds resemble the growling of wild cats. And in this video alone, there are already two Easter eggs for MW2: 31 Century Combat.

Does everyone have a game page available in EGS?

I wrote here that the trailer for the Smoky Jaguars carries a lot of references to the trailers of the MW2: 31 Century Combat campaigns, where the beginning is repeated one-on-one, but in relation to a new Clan.

All this fits into the roadmap, where it was indicated that MW2: 31 Century Combat (the most successful game in the series) was taken as a model for the creation of MW5: Clans. So, in the videos of the Jade Falcon and Wolf campaigns, first there are sounds imitating the falcon cry and howl of these predators. In the video of the Smoky Jaguar, we hear something like a growl. As they say, everything is for the veterans of the series and it's great! Nostalgia and very pleasant.

I highly recommend reading Chris Lowrey interview. There is a lot of interesting and useful information. I am glad that the developers think adequately and sensibly about things, they approached the matter objectively. It is very well said why Smoky Jaguars, the general theme of the campaign is what it looks like and much more.

Well I was excited, but now I'm just disappointed. a expensive 79 dollar edition, you have to buy if you want the Timberwolf War variant. A DLC that will be free for only a week, then you will have to pay to get, if you miss it in that time. Very disappointing.
