Commando Archive

Good lord why cant those boneheads stay out of proffessions...ooh i want to be uber...ooh i want to kill harder and take down AT ST. This makes me sick ...in beta i was a master marksmen and when SWG went live ..i worked to be commando even though i wanted to quit. now these dorks comin after Devs made some changes....bah !

Sorry i dont mean to rant but this is ridiculous.

I'll just say that I too am sick that these bandwagon guys are just following whatever profession is hot.

For you out there that haven't decided on what profession to choose and are looking at commando, I say come on in. At least you guys aren't (hopefully) jumping on the bandwagon.

I personally bought SWG to be a commando, and I am a true commando. I won't change.....ever. I agree that once the nerf bat swings our way and all the wagonjumpers start complaining, I'll LOVE to see us old-timers say "Wow, that's still pretty good". I've been here almost from the beginning....I made commando a week before they switched the LP to Heavy Weapon xp.

I'll remember when it took 20 secs for my flamethrower to fire again, I'll remember when my particle cannon's/rocket launchers/lightning cannons did damage for 100.

Simply put, that guy who was covered in the opening message in this thread is an idiot. He's complaining about our Rocket Launchers before we even get to see them. The dumba**.

I would like to just post here in order to establish that I am a Novice Commando on my way to the top. I have been at this for awhile, and I read the forums but rarely post. I dont want to be considered "on the band wagon".

Later Gators,

I'm gonna check to see if they act like this on the Chef board.

Knew there would be some bandwagon action but I have gone from seeing 2 or 3 commando's a week to about 3 or 4 a day am not saying I have been commando from the start or any thing but when I looked on the boards for commando I think the sum of the post read something like this......DO not be commando it sucks and you will hate it. Well I dont hate it kind of liked the challenge of being the bast ard son of the elite professions still funny to break out a LP and watch people wonder what is makeing all the explosions.

Hopefully all the power hungry gamers dont get us nerfed by whoreing the RL.

Commando since the suck.

Get off the wagon and put the nerf bat down.

i must REALLY suck at this game. I've wanted to be a commando since i knew of the preffesions, but my guy doesnteven have mastermarks yet!

Hey, let all these people who say they are going to create a commando cuz they "will maybe soon possibly be at one point in this decade" a fixed and powerful class. They will soon realize that they cant just be a commando at will, 75 pecent of them will quit when trying to get master unarmed. Mostly all the others will quit when they realize it takes 187skill points to master commando and that they cant be a creature handling ninny, along with being a commando. same goes with trying to get any sort of descent healing skills. People are just blowing smoke because they are mad that they will actually have to look at their monitor while having their AT-ST's out, incase a commando or two calls to arms against it. Oh and the T21 whiners just cant stand a class that may have a bigger gun than them, why? sheesh.. you decide.

I am neither trying to become a bandwagon jumpernor a dabbler. My original plan when the game first came out was to be a commando/CH, a one-man army if you will. Then I agreed, through much beer, to become a commando for my PA regardless of the gimps to the class. I thought "hell it was what I wanted to be when I grew up anyway instead of a BH or pistoleer". So I happily said "I take the challenge" and have been studying up ever since. Tonight I will finally start the grind towards Commando and will do it with a smile not cause I am jumping on the bandwagon but because I am doing something of Alvis and because good things come to those who wait.

Hopefully the dabblers will not hurt the true blood and soul that are the Commandos

Peace favor your weapons

I played a commando in beta, wanted to try a BH but the game went live before I could. So from day one commando was pretty much my second choice.

However I changed to commando expecting to change again shortly because of all the suckage stories I heard, figured I would see for my self and if it really did suck that bad I would quit commando or quit swg.

Alot of the newer people will be 'bandwagon' people - but so what? Alot of people are trying differant careers so that they can salvage their enjoyment of the game. I am sure a certain percentage of these will be complete idiots 'd00ds' or whatever, but I am sure that a larger, mostly silent, percentage will be people who bring value to the commando community as well as the swg community.

I usually stick to caustic remarks and insults, no idea why this post is so nicey nice - try not to hold it against me.

I've been working on becoming a commando for about three weeks (work/school kills me), and this is probably worse than putting up with the broken class I was soon to become (which thankfully, has now reversed). Guess it's time to suck it up, the rocket launcher pvp commando craze will die at the hands of the nerf bat anyways...

I'm mastering commando today and personally I think it'll be funny when I'm walking around displaying my "Master Commando" tag proudly and I'll have people from the bandwagon train asking me for training.

I'll either a) refuse and mock them for bandwagoning or b) charge them at least 75% of what I paid for my own training


They won't like it but hey.... they didn't have to bandwagon....

Every since the first day of release Ive been working to get commando. when I got it I had a really hard time getting heavy weapon Xp.(a few week before they fix the LP to give heavy weapon xp)I have never once thought about turning BH, or Pistoleer. (no matter how many time they kill me) now the table have turned. and I see so many people wanting to be commando. Whatthey dont know is thatwe still will not be over powering BH. Flame knock down does high dmg and also knock us on our arse.If we miss the first shot or hit any bar beside action bar and our target still alive. safe to say we'r dead.

as for taking down AT-ST. We need a few sec to set up our rocket launcher before we can fire. Ever seen black hawk down? Imp will be calling out commando when they see us set up our rocket launcher.

And with 28 charge on those weapon pluse it being a pain in the arse to make. how many commando do you think will have rocket launcher handy when imp roll into town with an AT-ST?

While the rebel is setting up his RL to take down an atst I'll run up and acidsingle2 his ass.
