It is so incredibly sad how unoptimzied this game is.
I can run a skyrim playthrough with over 1300 mods with no crashes but this game can barely handle 50. I can't even complete one mission before this game crashes for stupid unknown reasons. My god the devs should be focused on fixing their awful game instead of making more half-assed DLC.

Limit your framerate.

Already did that. I've read guides, looked up videos on how to prevent crashing as best as possible, etc. It doesn't matter. Game is unoptimized hot garbage.

20 C-Bills it's actually the fault of mods you shouldn't be running because they're massively out of date. There's people running nearly 200 mods, stable.

In fact, if it's crashing on mission end, it'll be a reputation mod that hasn't been updated.

You know - you don't have to play this 'hot garbage'

This isn't a game-dev problem, it's a mod-dev problem. As for Skyrim, that game has evolved pretty sophisticated community tools to allow people to run so many mods with no issues. It was very different in the earlier days of Skyrim, when you had to micromanage load order without any alerts about mod intercompatibility issues, or mods not updated.
Sounds like a you problem to me... skyrim compared to this? No matter how many mods , mech warrior in itself needs more power from your GPU and all... also you cry about vanilla being to hard? Play with Yaml and some mods here, THEN you learn what your PC is truly capable off.

Also, load mods from Nexus only... safe YAML wich gets updated here on steam. Modoptions and all? Nexus version works fine. Should consider doing "all nexus mods" tbh. it speeds up loading process tremendosly.

Never complained about the game being too hard. Already have YAML. My modded skyrim uses more CPU and GPU than MW5. Not a me problem, definitely a game problem.

Most likely yes. The OP needs to review the release dates of all of the newer mods (YAML, VONBIOMES, etc) in his mod list, and ensure that they have all been updated AFTER the game version (mw5ver) release date. With the older mods it is hit or miss. Some will still work with the latest version of MW5 and some will not.

Maybe you should post your hardware instead of just crying.

Analring runs a potato and is an old none demanding game, cope.

you're comparing this game engine to skyrim? they're acres apart as far as demands on your CPU/GPU go. you may as well have mentioned that doom 1 handles performance with mods better
mods are your problem. the vanilla game runs great even on my old potato PC

Can't even blame mods in general. User error with mods (ie not reading, and using old mods) causes problems. My old i5 4460 with a GTX970 can run a modded up MW5 happily.
