MW2 has started to take place. I haven't played them before. The Clan Wolf campaign in 31st Century Combat and the Clan Ghost Bear campaign in Ghost Bear's Legacy have already passed. I am very happy with these games. There is a lot of ent in the first game, there is no plot yet. In the company of the Ghost Bear, the plot has already started.
I keep playing MW2: M. I was pleasantly surprised by the first mission under contract with the Dragon Syndicate to suppress the uprising on Galedon V. Activision simply amazes with its imagination and diversity.
In general, there was information that on Galedon V, one office with a factory for the production of ammunition and cartridges began to supply the rebels, while they had recently been almost bankrupt and now it seems they decided to make some money in the war. Our goal is to send them a message that it is not good to cooperate with criminals and violate the laws of the Dragon Syndicate. The task is to go to the business center in the early morning and destroy the third floor, where the offices of the management company are located. It is not advisable to touch the other floors, since the message is specifically addressed and everyone should know who it is for. And we don't need extra sacrifices, even though no one should be at work.
I'm still thinking, is it really necessary to destroy one floor specifically? And yes, even in the briefing video it is indicated. I run to the building, and there's a light on on the third floor. Well, I sawed it out, the main task is completed. On the way, he destroyed 2 APC, a Commando and a helicopter. What did the secondary tasks have to do with it, if I don't destroy other floors and for destroying enemies along the way. At the starting point, the mechs of the Dragon Syndicate were standing, waiting for me. As supervisors.
P.S. And the light on the floor was on because there was a cleaner and a guard there.
Playing MW2 games, I realize that these are really the best games in the Mechwarrior series. The rest were unable to reach this level. In other parts, the gameplay itself may become more modern, the graphics, the simulator mode as in MW3. But in terms of plot, atmosphere, mission variations, and information delivery, MW2 has no equal. And the fights here are interesting, I like them. In MW2, the characteristics of all iron are like in a board game, fights are very fleeting and dangerous. The music is awesome, very cool. The time of day changes, the weather is different.
MW3 has good gameplay in terms of combat, MW4: Vengeance has a fur lab and a plot thanks to the actors' play, but otherwise they have nothing to surprise if you look at MW2. Even the MW3 briefings are a further development of the MW2 briefings: Ghost Bears Legacy, Mercenaries. But there is still news, an event log, and in MW3, apart from briefings, there is nothing in terms of providing information. Imho)

According to the trailer, the game is about earning the Blood Name. So that's already been sorted out.
As someone who has played all the Battletech games and read the books since the early 90s, I don't expect anything exciting when it comes to mission design. What you want would come down to every single mission being created specifically. It would certainly be cool. But after the first playthrough, you'll never pick up the game again.
I bet there are a lot of randomly generated missions (with constant repetition) and story missions sprinkled in.
I like to repeat myself here: In Mercs the level designers were lazy. During a mission I wanted to take a different route (open area) to avoid an enemy spawn point and ran into a previously invisible wall. I never started the game again after that.
You're wrong. If the plot is exciting and there is an atmosphere, linear campaigns are great and can be replayed many times. I did exactly the same in MW3, MW4. And you're wrong again, here all the missions will be created manually, there will be no random missions with procedurally generated tasks.
