Learn English, people. It's a wonderful language used by most humans you'll ever speak to...


"Changed all delay moves to be on a 30 second timer"


This does NOT mean that all specials are getting a 30 second delay. What it DOES mean is that moves which can delay an enemie's action (Panic Shot is the first one that comes to mind - it prevents your enemy from taking any combat action for 10 seconds or so) are now on a 30-second timer between uses. This will prevent people from spamming these delay moves interspersed with higher damage moves to force victory in combat. (You would occasionally see a Smuggler simply kicking butt by alternating Panic Shot and Last Ditch, effectively preventing you from attacking while simultaneously dealing huge damage from last ditch.)



"Changed resource requirements for medium warheads (grenades) to require more generic resources instead of specific ones"


Woohoo! Maybe now we'll see the price of rocketlaunchers drop enough to make them a viable weapon, assuming proton grenades were one of the grendes affected.

the 30 sec delay probably is aimed towards attacks LIKE kd and them BUT it could be applied to our flamethrower specials. If thats the case I quit commando. The proffession is to **edit** boreing and I don't want my only weapon nerfed.

The delay attacks as has been said already above have no direct effect on any of the commando attacks. It's not a "probably has no effect on us", it's fact it has no effect on our special attacks.

A delay attack is much like a "slow" effect in the way that it slows you down. Attacks like thoes are among others War Cry from the brawler line and Panic shot from pistoleer. It makes you act slower when under the effect or when hit by such a delay move.

An exsample would be like this, if you were to melee with your wooden stick that has a delay of 5.0, and you have no aditional speed modifieres you would hit every 5 seconds with it. But if you were to be affected by War Cry, and in this exsample lets say it delays target with 4 seconds, you would then be makeing a tohit every 9 seconds until you are no longer under the effect of War Cry.
