Hawken: playlist how you play this game?
You want a critique of your playing, or do you want other to share their playstyles? You look like you are kinda just starting out at this point and getting use to the controls.
I'll talk about how I play, I suppose. I have previous experience with the game from the PC version circa 2013, but my computer fell into the point where it couldn't run a game anymore, so I decided to tide myself over on PS4.
For most open-field fighting, especially team deathmatches, I use a CR-T Recruit and stick with the team closely. I will make dynamic flanking maneuvers when enemies get caught alone, and I use my TOW heavily to rack damage in discouraging bursts. I generally prefer keeping my feet on the ground unless it gives me a maneuvering advantage on another mech. Generally that means I should be at close-range... too close to use my TOW safely. I especially will launch the TOW at every opportunity and detonate it when fighting down corridors cramped with enemy faces, because I'm liable to damage somebody. Considering the primary gun for that mech, landing TOW shots borders on an excessive practice for me. It must be done, or I'm not doing it right. The CR-T was always a mech I found dependable in its balance versus other options.
In corridor fights, though, I would probably prefer to use a Scout. The heat gun splashes a bit and with a TOW, anywhere or anytime the enemy limits their maneuvering options, I will have an advantage. I have beaten medium mechs face-to-face like that when combining my better positioning speed with that incredible burst damage. My aim with the lack of aim assist still needs to improve to get the most out of the mech, but heaven have mercy on anyone fighting me if my aim gets to the point I want it at, because I've experienced the DPS on this little guy; it's frightening how quickly it can kill mediums.
I am now experimenting with a Brawler mech, which I prefer to use to bunker down on AA during siege mode and hold corners. I've not been able to use it in enough matches to know what else it's capable of, though. I might prefer a rocketeer for slightly longer range and burst damage, but we'll see.
Sorry to say, I don't save videos of my games, though I should.
