Description

Upgrade to the BATTLETECH Season Pass and receive Flashpoint and two upcoming BATTLETECH expansions.


BATTLETECH's first-ever expansion adds new gameplay, depth, and over 30 hours of new content to your mercenary experience. Introducing Flashpoints: high-stakes, branching short stories that link together mercenary missions, crew conversations, special events, critical choices, and rare bonus rewards to take BATTLETECH's endgame and Career-Mode gameplay to the next level.

Flashpoints embroil you in the feuds and machinations of the various Great Houses of the Inner Sphere, and are designed to keep even the most hardened mercenary commanders on their toes. In addition to narrative twists and turns, some Flashpoint stories feature consecutive deployments in which players can’t repair or heal between missions, while others feature infiltration contracts that restrict the tonnage of deployable BattleMechs.

Beyond adding over 30 hours of exciting Flashpoints to BATTLETECH, this expansion comes complete with three new ‘Mechs (including the highly anticipated Hatchetman), a challenging new mission type, and a new tropical biome for the biggest and most challenging BATTLETECH experience yet.

FLASHPOINTS
Here's just a few examples of the many new stories and challenges you'll face as a mercenary commander in Flashpoint:

Extracurricular Activities
The petty squabbling of political rivals takes a deadly turn when civilians are caught in the crossfire. Will you escort them to safety at the risk of your MechWarriors and their 'Mechs… even if they can't pay?

Criminal Minds
The routine capture of a criminal syndicate’s warehouse uncovers the resting place of an ancient BattleMech. Will you share this information with your employer or keep the ‘Mech for yourself?

Headhunting
The Zhao twins are a thorn in the side of your employer and it’s time to terminate their command. But when their forces are routed and the siblings flee in two directions you’ll need to choose which commander - and which unique salvage - you’ll pursue.

NEW BATTLEMECHS
Expand your 'Mech arsenal with the armor-chopping power of the Hatchetman, the speed and versatility of the Crab, and the battle-computer-equipped Cyclops.

NEW ENCOUNTER
Target Acquisition is an exciting new mission type that challenges you to put your light and medium 'Mechs to the test. Take control of three locations to triangulate fire on an enemy installation before time runs out.

NEW BIOME
Take the fight to all-new lush, tropical environments - but watch out for the spore clouds (or use them to your advantage!)

Bad...

The missions are so badly balanced, it is no fun. Some you breeze through, some are impossible, either using a lance of 100 tonners or swifter units. New Mechs are nothing special, too, more boring than exciting. New traits for warriors,each to their own taste, But i seldom used Bulwark in the original campaign, now seems mandatory. Base game, though with a short campaign, was much more fun than this crap expansion. Owning (sadly) the season pass, i await the other DLCs with dread. Well. got to find some guys/gals again to play the tabletop like i did in the early 90s.

Just not enough content

For the high price of this DLC package, you get only a couple of mechs, and a few multipart missions. The multipart missions really aren't a new feature as advertised since the exact same system was included in the base game and was used for the final campaign mission. Now the Hatchetman is an awesome addition and is an absolute ton of fun, but by the time you're mid game medium mechs become useless as they just can't tank the masses of enemies the missions throw at you, and running lower difficulty missions means not bringing in the cash to keep up with your monthly expenses, so you get this amazing playtoy that you really never get to use. I hate to say this, since I like battletech overall, but wait for a hell of sale to make this worthwhile.

Very little imagination.

Too little. Art design still feels `off`. Mechs did nothing for me. Didn`t see much of anything that I thought added to the game except for the Jungle bio which is ok. The problem with these environments is they`re too few types and they`re not dynamic. How about forests catching fire after too much fighting with volatile weapons, adding smoke for a while (cover and heat), but then removing all cover once burned out? You could even have forest fires all across the map. Even 20 year old Xcom did this. So much lacking of imagination and what could be done in the game mechanics. I shouldn`t be surprised as they wasted time with stupid gender politics instead of making a good game. Glad I waited until a cheap sale.

As garbage as ever

It's not that there's no love here. But god damn, what a broken unfinished beta test of a game. This DLC? It fixes nothing.
