The only reason I would blame Q for anything here is the fact that this thread is now 10 pages long and no dev response to all the complaints against the company about the way they are screwing over their player base commandos.

... Hey, Mr. Dev people, it's not april, where's the REAL answers? Oh... you mean, you're serious... oh.



Sheez, I cannot believe this, I mean, come on, this is absolutely pathetic. I am SO glad that commando has never sounded interesting for me, because this just makes it... well, PATHETIC!!! I just can't understand how ANYONE could be this stupidly blind to anything, especially after 10 pages of 100% negative feedback (minus the melon!), especially when alot of that feedback is coming from NON-commandos (myself included).



I was really looking forward to going out and hunting with my commando friend (when things got fixed) but now it looks like we won't be a powerful killing duo, as one of us will have to either stay nerfed or find a less capable class for what a commando SHOULD do.



Utterly pathetic, and idiotic, not to mention being a big step for losing your company a large amount of money, because obviously there are plenty of people who feel strongly enough about this to quit entirely (I would to if I were a commando, OR if they did this to my class). This is just SUCH a joke, it can't POSSIBLY be real! Pathetic. What a crock of horse hocky.



Sayonara Commandos, we never truly got to know you. *bows head in reverence to the potentially great profession*

Yanno, I thought half the responses the TKA's got were non-answer BS. You guys got bent over and rammed with a 10-foot pole, sideways.



without lubricant =/ and in a non-nice way...




yeah..



*pitpats the commandos* lord you guys weren't even given a bone!

well, if i have to choose the non-answer 'we'll investigate it' after they've been given specific isntances, screenshots, examples, mathwork, and so forth...and you poor lost souls....wow.


i (a carbineer/crappy armorsmith wearing my own armor) saw a commando in town the other day who actually had a flame-thrower, so i challenged him to a duel, to see the flame effect. he said i would be under-whelmed, and he was correct. i let him spray his fire on me, and shoot the fire balls (**edit**? fire balls from a flamethrower??) and i finally got down to approx 1/3 life in around 3 minutes, wearing armor with no heat resist. most of the damage i took was from theflame/bleed he did to me. i then incapped him with one shot (scatter-shot2, it decided to target everything on his mind-pool so down he went). i felt so bad i got my doctor friend to heal him up all the way and get rid of his wounds and everything.


the only response i can suggest you all have to this is to all quit commando, stop posting, just act as if the class has died and breathed its last...if you do, then maybe the devs will decide to stop by and see just WHY everyone left. obviously, having a 10+ page thread isn't enough to attract that attention...maybe they're just assuming that since Q started it, of COURSE lots of people will post lots of meaningless jibba'jabber.


i feel for you, and thank god that i decided to go to a class that was given the run-around, instead of a red-hot poker shoved straight up my <ahem>

Posting again, saying that my jaw is still dropped from reading the Dev's response to your problems. Wow.


Look, not a single Pistoleer is here sticking up for you guys. Looks like it's mostly us Commandos and Bounty Hunters now! Oh, and the occasional doctor.


I compiled a list of my favorite quotes from this forum, they seriously made me laugh my ass off.



"Hello Devs,
Please make commandos not suck.


Your pal,
Zurian"



"Hello devs, please stop violating me and make commandos not suck.
Thank you"



"Face it, the only way this class gets any attention is if suddenly we all became mobs and other classes started exploit killing us for uber xp and cash.

Buzzy"



"In all seriousness, i'll admit that i've been incapped by a nuna trying to kill it with a flamethrower. I only took out like half of its health. You know theres a problem when you can actually go from full health to incapacitation while fighting a nuna. Sigh."



"The flame thrower in SWG is more like a Worm Eaten Club actually."



"yesterday i saw a merchant (not even master merchant ) beat a commando. Work around that."



"Yanno, I thought half the responses the TKA's got were non-answer BS. You guys got bent over and rammed with a 10-foot pole, sideways.

without lubricant =/ and in a non-nice way..."



"'Sir, where do you want the howitzers placed?'
'Place them on the front line near the trenches, Soldier!'"



"Wow. I guess Commando was the wrong description for the class, but Suicide Bomber was too politically incorrect."



"Anteraan wrote:
Commandos - the new melee class of SWG!!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, yeah. They're kinda like Brawlers, except they do half the damage and have a shorter range."



"Lets re-cap todays events, shall we?:


1) Garibaldi Resigns
2) Holocron comes and tells us everything will be alright shortly
3) Q-3PO COMES OUTTA LEFT FIELD AND KICKS US IN THE NUTS."



"Nytewaulker wrote:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
relations


1. The mutual dealings or connections of persons, groups, or nations in social, business, or diplomatic matters: international relations.
2. Sexual intercourse.



Not true. Look at definition 2. He's done that to us us plenty well."



"'Sir are you sure we are supposed to target the Nuclear Missle at ourselves'
'Everything is working as intended soldier'"



"screw that nuke his ass. Oh wait I'm not standing on top of him I can't!"



"Sinron wrote:


Ill try the patch. If it doesnt work I dump commando its fairly simple.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ill dump this game."



""You should use your main attack becuase specials are just for a little extra damage.... **edit** **edit** **edit** **edit** **edit**????????????"



"I hope Q stops drinking and doing drugs so much he can get cleaned up and make some reasonable statements/solutions to your OBVIOUS problems."



"Commando class, darn no edit option"



"Musad wrote:
Especially if the command class is meant to take out vehicles.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe we are intended to take out the vehicles we are riding in?"



"Wow, you guys got screwed!"



"I love how you can't rate admin posts. I guess they're afraid of negative numbers."



"I just had to register after i read that post. Did I buy a Collector's Edition Beta????"



"Hmm, I hear commandos are kinda broken, but my class, armorsmithing, does have a lot of problems of it's own...
*Reads thread*
OH SHI"



"1. The devs moonlight as jew bankers and just care about money.
2. Cancel your account
3. The devs are morons who don't have the slightest clue about the game.
4. SWG is horrible game.
5. Play World of Warcraft.
6. Commando SUKCS and will never be fixed."



My respect to everyone who wrote that stuff, you are truly comedians in dark times. (I'm just waiting for this entire thread to be deleted.)

I preface this with the obligatory "I am not a commando but.."


Dear god, does that designer honestly think you guys are working as intended? I presume Q is just the messenger here, but Christ, did he just cut and paste from the internale-mail without reading it? What the heck kind of happy land is he in where he thinks commandos are even close to viable.


The only way you can kill things is with your marksman skills and with your marksman weapons, the only way you can gain experience is to use grenades or weapons you don't even get the certs for


Youdo 10 or 15 damage a pop for half an hour against a nuna outside the city gates to maybe get 50 or 100 experience.


The weapons that should define you are by design rare, and have *charges*;and with the damagethey do, you need to buy a new one after two or three baby nunas.


And this is working as intended?


I thought the commando was actually supposed to be using those heavy weapons, not a pistol 99.999% of the time and the HW only when showing off he lag-fest. Why not just scrap the whole profession and tag those weapon certs into the pistoleer line and get it over with?

All I have to say is DO any of you DEVS Read the posts??? Do you not see that the people who "PAY" to play this game are upset... Do you not care? I think it would be down right funny as **** if youlost most of your player base becuase you dont seem to give a crap what we have to say. I want to be a commando and I havent even got to the point yet in the game where I want to start complaining about my GIMPED class. I have been sending bug reprot after bug report about how the game likes to spin the wheel of what will my stats be at today. Hey but never fear they are designing new "broken" things to add to the game. Here is a large CLUE fix the basic game first then add new things. Listen to the players, HENCE our name is the player. Who else would know what is not working. How did this game get released with these many problems. It just simply amazes me that there are so many problems and all we get is "we are looking into it"


Come on guys get your butts in gear and get things working.


Sincerly,


A very Dissapointed player

just wondering.. but what is the armor piercing level of heavy weaponry?


perhaps that's where commandos shine? other classes pierces maybe one layer, perhaps yours pierces 3...


well, if not, it should be.. heh.


oh and.. sucks to be you - 0.0 meter.. rofl.

I'm a Bounty Hunter and although I share a little of your pain with the LLC in our line, you guys take the brunt of it.

From now on, everytime I see a Commando, I will /tip 1000 to them, cuz God knows you can't complete missions for cash, and will need something to give the Doctors who are healing you after you get chewed to hell by gnorts, and durnis.
