Commando Archive

I only played a minute or 2 andf didnt really notive having an trouble but wast really on long enough to.

One thing I notived is I kick my own asss with the HAR. dont even do halv the damage it seems and its HAM cost is a lot worse tahn the FT.

I'm pretty new to commando, but I did go hunt today.

- The initial damage done by FT will still hit any pool but tick off health. I thought this would be changed with healthShot1, mindShot1, and so on. If it was supposed to be fixed it would be nice to get some visibility on this and see it corrected in a hot fix.

- Damage, accuracy, ham cost, and speed on the FT and Launcher pistol seem pretty much the same as pre-publish. I don't thinkanything was steath nerf'ed in that regard.

Buff changes are sweet as can be.

i dueled another master commando, i basically let him shoot at me with his flamthrower while i stood still and ran. I have +155 range defense, which should cap at +125. When i stood still and he stood still he hit me about 80% of the time. But no one stands still in PvP, ran i ran around he was barely able to hit me at all, constant miss, miss, miss and miss. We need more accuracy!

while we do probably need more accuracy, did he try /aim?

I don't mind having to aim, i just hate aiming and missing a stacker 10 out of 10 times.

didnt see him use /aim

why was the 2.5 dmg modifier put in again against us? are we still looked as riflemen?

yup, looks like they fixed the "to hit" bug that was plaguing commandos, riflemen, and bounty hunters. no longer can you stand in front of a mob and just blast away. expect to get hit a lot more now. last night, i could tank a lair of quenkers, no armor, just power boosting, and barely get scratched. today, i had to be buffed, fully armored, and still had a few close calls.

slaag, /aim supposedly doesn't work with commando weapons. yeah, i know, shocking news.

also,elrohirsor, they didn't put a cap on melee and ranged defense yet. just dodge, counter attack and block. so all the pistoleer/fencers, swordsmen/carbiniers, riflemen/pikemen (were there ever one of these?) got the nerf bat today. all the riflemen/tka/fencers however, did not.

oh yeah, the HAR, still useless. like technohic said, you'll kick your own ass with it unless you're fully buffed and on brandy. i used it once without buffs, and a full set of composite on, and watched a big 165 float over my head....ouch. so we get to do less damage over a longer period of time with no DoT and drain our HAM pools while we're at it. fantastic.

Oh, you guys are gonna love this: I just tested out Acid Cone 2, and guess what?

Not only is the animation not changed, but there is no animation whatsoever for using this special!

ben that way for a longe time not saprized it wasint changed

they oviously dint spend more then 2-4 hour max on it i would say more like 5 to 10minets

Did they make defenses depend on the weapon equiped? Or is it just me?...I dont know if others are experiencing what I have been but I'm a commando/ carbineer. Last night while hunting fambaa's, they would miss me or I would counter attack quite often while I was using a flame thrower. Today hunting fambaa's with a flame thrower I get hit every single time, but if I switch to my carbineI all of a sudden start counter attacking and they are missing me just like last night. I switch back and they hit me every time...Did they make defenses depend on the weapon equiped?

so was an intentional "fix?" I was getting my A** handed to me by Baz Nitches which yesterday I was taking them on pretty good.

They fixed to HIT, referring to accuracy. Not increased damage, this effects anyone that has a ranged weapon equiped.
