Dear developers, please make the next expansion for the Jade Falcon in the Refusal War or in Hegira War.

A Jade Falcon DLC in the Refusal War wouldn't be that far off to be honest with you. I hope that the Turkina can make it into Mechwarrior 5 since it's the Premier Jade Falcon Mech to that clan.

I don't want to sound like "one of those" people, but I don't think that this DLC will be that good. Don't get me wrong, the Arrow IV's, Naga and the Directional Jump Jets that allow us to move in any direction akin to Mechwarrior 2 are fun aspects, but it's the story that kills it for me. Unless you know the fate of Clan Wolf, there is no way to "Forge your path through the legendary Battle of Tukayyid" as PGI put it. But if you don't know the full lore of Clan Wolf, it can be fun.

This DLC needs more to it in order for it to stand out from the Ghost Bear DLC. In order to forge our path through the Battle of Tukayyid, PGI should give us missions that we can diverge from where our actions can affect other clans and work for different outcomes and endings. Another thing that PGI can do is make alternate "What-If?" ending like Jayden choosing Ezra or Mia, but shows what would happen if the Clans actually won Tukayyid. I wish PGI could be bolder with things like that and throw us a bit of a curveball with the story instead of following the status quo.

I'm not hating on the DLC, it's just my own critique for the DLC. I think it will be fun, but unless PGI does something like divergent paths or a "what-if" alternate ending, the tagline of "Forge your path through the legendary Battle of Tukayyid", will just be misleading for those who already know what happens.

It turns out that we will be playing for Ranna (Kerensky), and all our fellow starfighters are also canon. The names of the mechwarriors are visible in the new screenshots.

Oh, I know. I just want share my out thoughts about the DLC. I'm interested to see how far it will go.

I'm quite sure this DLC is going to rock and roll. And for the next DLC: Falcon vs Wolf: The Refusal War!

If that's the next DLC, then I hope we get a remake of MechWarrior 2! Only instead of Single Missions like the previous (that being just one `Mech versus a whole army), but something akin to the Ghost Bear and Smoke Jaguar DLC from recent.

In any case, as soon as my balance sheet is cleared of some bills, I'll nab the ones I need to play.

Speaking of Mechwarrior 2 Remake, I know someone who is making one in MW5: Clans
