Commando Archive

Assault Blaster, of some description. Give us a High AP ranged rapid-firing Energy weapon. I'm not bothered if it's a Carbine or a Rifle, but just cause Rifles are probably getting a 3 second cap, doesn't mean it'd suck. I am 100% sure though that of all the professions in the game, a heavy repeating blaster would suit Commando the most. The way this profession is set up, it's idea for filling the HMG squad support role.

4. Assault Rifle

Although people should stop describing it as a rifle or carbine, or whatever - it should be a heavy weapon - that is, after all, what us Commandos deal with, right?

Lets just call it repeating assault blaster

Assault Rifle.

What Commando DOESN'T have a rifle type weapon?

they should add an assault carbine (the HAR is TECHnically a rifle lol..... they should just make it more useful)

they should add an E-web, a grenade launcher, perhaps some melee combat skills
and a bunch of specials for the launcher and new carbine that can only be used with that weapon instead of any pistol or carbine

with commando like that, you have the option to dabble in any or all of four other professions (rifleman/pistoleer/carbineer/TKA)to specialize in one weapon or be very versatile in any situation (launcher pistol, heavy acid rifle, new assault carbine, new melee skills)

i see commandos as the most versatile combat profession (or at least they should be)

I keep seeing the words specialise and people going into mastering other professions to increase the ability of one of their commando weapons. That should not be the case, all the commando weapons should be Heavy Weapons and nothing else otherwise we are going to have to choose one of our weapons to specialise in and use at all times, that is not what a commando is about.

The reason why there were no votes for 1) Launcher Pistol...is because it IS a weapon already...we just need mods/specials...and that will definately be a part of our package deal (devs said so loong ago)...

Definately 4) Assault Rifle aka Launcher Rifle as coined by garv

From then...id say e-webb and a gernade launcher are tied....UA tactics...Id say most of the community would agree on a Hybrid form of UA coupled with our weapons..similar to the Pistol Melee Defense 1 special...where we use our weapon to hit melee attacks against an enemy. Thats the most logical way of adding UA tactics into commando since we're always dealing with ranged weapons...but taking it a step head of Pistoleer.

Easiest way to prevent that: The Assault Rifle would be COMMANDO only....it would be a heavy weapon....where it uses our mods only, like the "Special Hvy weapon" specific mods the community wants instated. This way, its a culmination of all 3 ranged specializations...but it starts down a radically new path of a weapon. I agree 100% to making the LP like this as well...
