Mechwarrior 2: Mercs Soundtrack p1

[Bdakkon]

Man thumbs up just on the fact that when the music kicks in I feel like I'm back desperately trying to get a few more shots off before my ammo explodes or the heat caused a shut down. The ones after this just never caught that lighting in the jar feel. Not only was the music just better but the story and missions have just never been tight as this game felt. Hehe that damned computer voice too :) basically saying "your going to die" every two seconds with warnings that I would just override :D

[1RiotKing]

I always play this soundtrack while playing Mechwarrior 4 Mercenaries online, it just makes the experience feel complete. :)

[MaNu03847]

I had the game... never played it actually but, I used to put the CD on my old stereo... felling so nostalgic!!

[ArtemisFour]

Go google Galbadiahotel and there you can find all free MP3's of MW series music (free, no ads or stuff).

[RSGreysky]

wow. i heard waltz and my jaw dropped.

im a girl.

i never even played this game.

...i love this soundtrack ;_;

[blackryoken]

Dear god, the level of nostalgia I get from this is insane. really wish i still had my copy.

[caxep32]

all the tracks are super in this game, I love it!

[woodrowhp]

I still remember each mission as the song comes on haha. Loved this game.

[Mortarion12]

Steel Drum FTW, man hunting the general on Prosperina was hard

[alpha19602]

janex, underwater hunt, and hunter's moon FTW

[victorcharlie1980]

I F*ckin´ Love the music on all of the MW2 games and expansion packs, but Mercenaries did it the best!!!!!!! 

[QuakinginFEAR]

Why is hunters moon so shread-tastic?

[mackles]

@QuakinginFEAR underwater hunter is pretty bad ass too I'm surprised

[TheMechGamer]

Waltz is my favourite. I still have my disks, so I'll probably go rip the cds to my mp3 for the full mechwarrior 2 audio experience.

[frogjedi4]

@TheMechGamer Make sure that it's the original edition because the titanium edition is cut off like this.

[TheMechGamer]

@frogjedi4 I have DOS/95 and speical accelerated Editions ... I never touched the titanium, although I played them, after that I never touched them again, gave them away.

[zonkabe]

i remember that when i was i kid i used to put the discs -mercs and mech 2- on my cd player and listen to them all day (skipping track 1 of course lol). Awesome OST, brings back memories. Does anyone now where i can download them from? My discs are busted

[frogjedi4]

@zonkabe You can get them from the downloads section of either khinsider[dot]com (also has a lot of other games) or sarna[dot]net (specifically battletech games).

[mackles]

@zonkabe same here! so many memories!

[mackles]

LOL! Track 3...how trippy. I haven't heard these tracks in about 13 years

[pandresa]

waltz is the best wen u get the nice little beat kickin in. sweet

[KSCIAA]

'Purge the Steiners' is where it's at. :D

[CyhAnide]

This was the first PC game I ever played, and I still love it. Thanks for putting these up!

[carnesaur]

Why are the songs cut off liek this? when i play the game the songs are longer but these are no longer than 1 minute.. is there full versions somewhere?

[frogjedi4]

These are the Titanium version songs. The classic edition has more songs and they are all longer. Simply use media player with you mercs disc in to get these full songs.

[carnesaur]

I did, i have the version that has 3 games in 1, including mercs, and when i pulled the music off the disc, it was short like these.

[frogjedi4]

Then it must be titanium edition.

[carnesaur]

yes thats it. but it doesnt solve the problem :P

Where can i find the full songs?

[frogjedi4]

I'll send you a message.

[Childinfaith]

Thats what I want to know!

[DIProgan]

fudge i wanted the whole tracks :(

[intelligentmeathead]

MW2:MERCS had the best music out of the series, IMO. Nothing wants to make you go blow stuff up like the song Janex.

[thadea]

Mercs was the only one I bought. I gotta agree Janex is great for demolishing everything

[altezzaprius]

I like steel drum. This was what I serched in my memory for long time. Thank you very much for uploading this!

[Mrguyisme]

Lyrics to the first track on this video...

Reactor Online

Sensors Online

Weapons Online

All systems nominal

BEEEEBEEP

i miss this whole MW2:merc universe it was pretty epic.

[lamesurfer101]

@Mrguyisme

You forgot:

"How does it feel to strapped to a walking Nuke Reactor at 6 AM? Bet you wished you'd studied more in school, huh?"

God this was the best game in the series...

[joshkill01]

awesomeness

[darthdestoryah]

Underwater Hunt is my all time fav in all mechwarrior music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[animatedtacoX]

well.... idk what i am.. i play mechwarrior but i dont know who im loyal to AND IM NOT A ROGE PILOT! ok? can someone help?

[StealthDonut]

Purge the Davions?!?!? Bite your tongue, Drac! ;)

Hanse Davion Forever!

[DuStAn15]

Guys, if you want to listen to this stuff in high quality, enter "&fmt=18" at the end of the url. (minus the quote marks)

[sunderking]

I especially like "Steel Drum" (also called Phoenix Dawn on the soundtrack).

[Grunts237]

Wonderful, cept some of the music cuts off at random intervals,but that really took me back, (purge stiener was the best PS: No offense inteneded for active stiener forces listening

[frogjedi4]

The actual tracks do that, I'm not sure why but they do.

[StealthDonut]

I think I know the answer to why the tracks are shortened. If my guess is correct these tracks were copied from the Titanium Trilogy CD. The music tracks from MW2:Mercs was shortened to 1 min per track...sad really. I can't think of a single track on the CD I didn't like.

Heck, used to play them during BattleTech tabletop games to set the mood! :)

[Not5id]

Hmm, the tracks don't do that for me. For me, they finish very abruptly and don't fade out like that.

[MGMan37]

These must be the tracks for the Titanium version.

They had to cut down the tracks because the upgraded graphics took away some space.

[PTKilowatt]

None taken here: Hansens Roughriders the entire way baby!

[frogjedi4]

I've figured out why, ingame the tracks are supposed to blend together with one playing over the last few seconds of another, that's why they fade out so early.
