I haven't even been able to really get into [NDA BLOCKED ] like many others are currently enjoying....
Like me, buahahahaha! 
Anyways, for those of you that find yourself loosing hope, I found a great quote on the Battle for Middle Earth homepage, that is kinda cool in its truth and metaphorical simplicity...
"The darkest hour of night comes just before the dawn."
Speaking of BFME, anyone else looking into that when it comes out in November? Or Half-Life 2? (If it ever comes out, muahahaha!)

Raptor...that's actually an old quote..."It's always darkest before dawn."
I know, but it was phrased in Tolkeinese, so it was cooler sounding.

Nay the tongue of Man. Those of Tolkienese whisper to the soul of all!
Bravenese: Ya got that right Bro! Tolkien is much cooler!

I have found WH40K and SW: Battlefront very theraputic.
I have found Garvinsperpetual hinting on those nuggets of information he is sitting on very frustrating (read my sig).
I have found the waxing and waning of the community almost as entertaining as the game itself.
Me to, and with Halo 2 out in November I can probably keep busy till the combat revamp

Anyway, I think the lack of posts here is basically the fact that We've faught the good fight and now we wait. As a Commando for officially over a year now...I feel like I'm sitting in court waiting for the jury to release a vedict. My attorney knows the verdict...but he can't say anything untill the Judge sentences me. Until then, everything is a moot point.
As for passing time...I've been messing around with other SWG based stuff (which leads me to believe Combat Revamp might not be so quickly here...speculation on my part). Also, Guys!, I've been having a BLAST with Battlefront. Don't get me wrong here, I'm not compairing SWG and Battlefront. Two different games here. SWG is much more immersive, time consuming, and hopefully rewarding. Battlefront is more like an Energy Drink...quick, short, to the point!
Let me tell you this though. I've finally been a Rebel fighting impossible odds in the snow of Hoth. I've finally been an Imperial Scout Trooper swooping though the forests of Endor. The graphics are superb. The sound effects match the movies to a tee. The soundtrack...wonderful. Battlefront is very entertaining!
Four out of Five Slainte's for Battlefront. If Starship control was more then Shadey at Best...it may have got a perfect Five...
...I have a strong feeling JTLS will more then fill that role!
Slainte' Commandos!
Yikes I hope they don't give us the death penalty. Yeah I've been playing BF's, and I'm a commando in that game. I think I'm done with games though, thanks Soe.

I just got Rome Total War - it's sweet (if you like those kind of games).

seriously.... i've had a commando since just after retail release...
he still isn't a master. i still play that char from time to time, but it's a forgotten profession.
coming here... i mean, how many times can ya read the same post about flamethrower/acid rifle being the same tree...there being no specials for the rocket pistol, and gernades and or disposables...being too costly and hard to find for them not being all that effective.
i miss the stacking burns.
i feel cheated that we, as a class... are pretty useless. when i started, i envisioned commandos, to be the clunky, powerhouses of the game. tossing gernades, rockets, devestation...blah blah blah.
but...a year later. i'm still a flame thrower jockie... with a beam cannon i whip out every once and awhile for novelty's sake.

Well, there is one other possible reason, that is a large group of normal posters have gone over to beta at this time working really hard to get the devs ears on fixing and changing quite a few JTL breaking bugs and annoyances.
but that is just a though.
