SNES Mechwarrior gameplay

Just a video showing the final mission and ending (noticed some wanted to see how this game compared to the PC). This game seems really easy in the first 3 'chapters' but after the third boss kill the 'guard base' missions are really hard to beat.

Yep. Enemies have TOO MUCH ARMOR at the end. It's IMPOSSIBLE to beat with rockets alone. Usual strat I employed was SRM x6 -> MRL x6 -> PPC x6. Unfortunately the makers of this game thought when you overloaded on coolers that you can basically spam PPC and not overheat because the cooldown index automatically dropped all your heat. You can't tell how many coolers I have in this video but basically I used MINIMUM engine to MAX my coolers to spam PPC. Engines too heavy to make mech run fast.

Oh god mechwarrior SNES. Nostalgic bugs actually made me play the other mechwarriors. It only has two types of weapons; lasers, and missiles, no ballistics except for machine guns. Missiles were either homing, or non-homing but non would still track, only barely. But if you have 8 heatsinks, and you're on the ground, your mech CANNOT overheat even sitting in lava firing ppcs. So you don't need an engine at all. Mount 5 ppcs, max armor and jumpjets and land 0.5 sec every 10 and you autowin.

Yep. Engines are OVERRATED IN THIS GAME.

Who needs ground speed when you can fly faster anyway? #LOL

That mission looks insanely hard. Well done, though.
