Commando Archive

Here is what this "gentleman" is refering to:

Specialty Classes:

Commandos:

I’d rather not go through specific complaints about commando, but instead cover my view of the class, and potential changes.

I’m happy with the damage abilities of commandos. That being said, I am going to recategorize commando weapons to qualify as ranged weapons. This means that they won’t get a damage bonus against other ranged attacks, and all ranged defense modifiers will apply.

The other potential changes for commando revolve around the dot effect for flamethrowers (it might be too powerful), and maybe making the lefthand fire weapons more usable against larger targets as opposed to hitting everyone equally.

That said, I will argue that commando’s damage capabilities are reasonable, but they should come at a tradeoff.I might remove all defensive bonuses from the heavy weapons line to give commandos more of a weak spot, and might even add in some flame defense modifiers for other classes.

This was orginally posted by Holo for "Dan" their combat designer. Its hardly a nerf, with the possiable exception of the flame dot being looked at, which is honestly hardly a make or break in pvp. Even so, let me stress a few sentances for your reading pleasure, Takedown.

I’m happy with the damage abilities of commandos.

That's again, a statement by the combat designer. He holds more sway then nerf callers, or at least one could imagine, but lets carry on.

That's a known bug and something that needed to be fixed. Many commandos have pointed it out themselves as being silly.

The bold words are my little added hint. Fire dot is a bit broken at the moment and needs to be looked at anyway. Again, a few commandos have pointed this out themsleves. Currently burn continues after incap, and that may lead to greifing.

I might remove all defensive bonuses from the heavy weapons line to give commandos more of a weak spot, and might even add in some flame defense modifiers for other classes.

YAY, I found the nerf! So they -might- remove our already paltry defense bonuses (so what?) and may add some flame bonuses to -some- classes.

And this gets your panties in a wad? This makes your evening? That's hardly a hit with the nerf bat. That's barley a tap.

Should I come to the Bounty Hunter board, as you are a BH in training, and scream how great it is that eye shot is being made two special moves and how BH are due for a nerf? It's no different. So please, move on. Its sad what your doing here really.

Have no fear though, I wouldnt stoop to seeking other classes brought low. I'll be right here where its safe. Go predict falling skys elsewhere.

Thank you,

Takedown blathered thusly:

"I hope you guys get nerf really bad. Really really bad!!! "

I hope you play on my server. I'd like to come up and introduce myself to you sometime.

The BH fire DOT might even be better than your fire dot once the nerf comes in

Hmmm, you'd better not hope so jackass or you'll be getting about 100 commando's jumping on the BH forum whining and complianing like you're doing on our forums....why should a BH have a better flame attack from a CARBINE than we do from a FLAMETHROWER?

But I find this funny, you're training in the best overall combat class in the game and you're whining about us...well guess what buddy, they're planning on nerfing your precious tree too....so I'd get your box of tissues ready, you'll obviously be needing them.

So-TAKEDOWN- is an idiot. It's Official

dude.. no offense but that's been official for months now

you know that whole an infinite amount of monkeys in an infinite amount of time could write shakespeare thing?

i'm hoping one day i'll read a post by -TAKEDOWN- and it'll magically and/or accidentally be something intelligent. just like the monkeys.

at least his name is fitting.. he may not take anyone down with stunning wit or awesome in-game skills.. but he sure tries to get everyone nerfed.. that's one way to do it i guess.

Takedown, you've made a fool of yourself.

The changes mentioned by the combat dev were hedged by so many words like "potential", "possible" and "maybe", that absolutely nothing concrete can be gleaned from what he's saying except that the heavy weapons are going to be reclassified as ranged weapons (which we've all been asking for all along).

takedown grow up you baby.

Ehrgeiz Zwiehander

Hah forget this fool, he has no sort of credibility. I read alotta his posts, this boy aint nothing more than a little fool that hates it when he never gets his way. Better take that silver spoon outta your ass Takedown, cause you aint gettin what you want this time sonny. And also for the sake of others, just stop posting all together I'm tired, as well ofothersI'm sure,of your "wahh wahh, flamethower hurts, whine whine, commandos need a nerf, piss piss, I don't like being one shotted, moan moan, I don't like using my brain in PvP"

Seriously Take, it hurts when I read your posts, it seriously hurts.

I had to help one of the posters with a small error.

He said somthing to the effect that "you got owned by a comando didn't you" That would be correct if we are not talking about the flame thrower, if the orginal poster was killed by a comando using flame thrower, then the correct wording would be: " you got owned by the devs again didnt you"?

Also its never nice to make fun of a class that might get nerfed, because as that upity chick from scare tatics says, "laugh it up, you could be next".

That being said, im all for fair play, and if the devs think X thing is fair, then X thing is fair, untell they deem it unfair, which could happen just as easily. I personaly think wounds on flame thrower is unfair, but untell its changed, "And thats the way it is" i'll let you guess who said that.
