The Titanium Trilogy Cheat Codes
Links
Despite the series' loss of detail and realism from MechWarrior 1, MW2 started a grand tradition, and far be it from me to knock any exposure BattleTech can get, no matter how sloppily it was executed or prematurely released. The Titanium version created more bugs than it solved, but the 3d-enhanced graphics are gorgeous on high-end machines. The plot of MW2 centers on the Clan Refusal War between Wolf and Jade Falcon; the player can choose one side or the other and play from glorious start to ignominious finish. Missions could be simplistic or near-impossible, and often there were no hints as to how a certain task should be accomplished. Lancemate control (up to 2 friendlies) made life easier, and varible difficulty settings, two mission paths, and unlimited available modifications made up somewhat for the linear mission structure and bizarrely altered game physics. Still, there was little replay value after finishing both paths (especially on Hard setting, which wasn't terribly difficult), but NetMech saved the game from many dusty shelves. Trivia note: There are "easter eggs" scattered throughout the game, usually in out-of-the-way buildings whose contents can be Identified - look for the Harrison Ford in the Amish village's bell tower (Witness), and check out the buildings lining the roads of sparse-urban landscapes, especially the Police Stations.
