The Mechassault soundtrack. The first game though. The only two songs from Mechassault 2 I want is Getting Away with Murder and the final boss theme. Can't remember the name.

And down here...we'll just have one...happy little jenner. Happy jenner. Don't tell anyone - it'll just be our little secret.

And of course two more - One that goes with damned near anything



And one for when you need the raw power of UNTZ UNTZ UNTZ. Also from a pretty damned good movie, Redline.

I listen to the sound of my teammates on Teamspeak 3 providing me with intel and responding to my orders. Much more effective than music, although less enjoyable acoustically... well, I suppose the cheers of victory are rather pleasing.

I generally go with Papa Roach. Ever since hearing "Getting away with murder" as the boss fight music in the Mechassault games (and yes I am aware that those games are far from cannon, but they helped fill a MW void in my life for many years.) I find that band synonymous with a large scale mech battle.

Getting away with murder is one of my favorite songs. I also first heard it in Mech Assault, then again a couple years later. I was sure I had heard the song before, and looked back at the line of games on the bookshelf. "Why do I feel like this came from Mech Assault?" ... probably because it did, haha.

No music... It would interfere with the sound effect pumped through twin-18's, Polk Audio studio monitors and 2000 watts that shake my house like a real mech would.

I work at Best Buy. Those Polks would be insane.... Although you would have had to pay out the *** for them.

I usually have Pandora running in the background playing Black Keys, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Calvin Harris, Biggie, NAS, etc.

Ha!!! Bwaaaaaa, haaaaaa! That just made my evening...

I actually tend to get myself in trouble if I listen to music whilst I participate in a drop... Cuts down on my situational awareness. Tends to get me killed. Get the awesome music flowing and I get delusions of grandeur.

How about something like this:




(I actually made that video some years back, as MW4:Mercs was in steep decline. Was hoping to squeeze a little more fun from it before I put it on the shelf. Needless to say, I could never quite find enough people or get the scheduling worked out for the actors to get anything more than a trailer put together...)

HOLY CRAP! Thanks for reminding me Pied!!! If any song was made for Mechwarrior, it was this....

EDIT: In fact, this will be my official theme song for any MWO video I ever produce. "Metal rules the land" indeed!!!! :(

MW2 Mercenaries OST... or the Stariseige Tribes OST. Or just really anything from the late 90s back when games had badass hard rock soundtracks.

Drum and Bass is the only music a true mechwarrior would be listening to. It's futuristic and punchy and reminds of of the beaty robotech battle music.

Ed Rush and Optical's Wormhole is also good.

Grooverider, Mysteries of Funk - Starbase 23, Cybernetic Jazz

Currently been listening to classic metal stations from my Tunein presets. Lots of Judas Priest, Sabbath. When that's not cutting it, action oriented game soundtracks and movie scores (soundtrack to Mechwarrior 2 is PERFECT with this game). Big beat. Classic Rock/Metal. Industrial. IDB. Synth based music.

Loud & Crunchy.

Also, the music from the Command & Conquer series seems to lend itself rather well.
