Ok, correct me if I'm wrong, but isnt a Commando a heavy weapons expert(ie slow, heavy, powerfull weapons), and in the star wars universe are they not adept at destroying structures, armored vehicles, weapon implacement and stuff like that. Seems to me the original defining line of the class in the beginning was just that. You are not Snipers, you are not Martial arts experts, hell your not even a real pvp class by definition. So why then does everyone feel that because you have the biggest gun, or one of the best dot attacks that you all should own everyone else. Hell guys face it until big battles occur regularily with at-st's, at-at's, weapon implacements and large defensive structures, you are going to get beaten 9 time out of ten by any class designed to kill a person not buildings. I'm military, you can see rockets moving through the air, you see the time it takes to fire one, hell you can follow the path of a flamethrower with just your eyes. but its really hard to see a bullet lol, and its harder to swing an acid steam launcher then it is for a TKA to swing his fists to bear on you.
Thats just my two cents, and I think Commando is a very cool class, just you guys dont have the real defining targets for you to shoot at to show everyone what you really can do and what you were designed to do!
Commando, the building removal system on two legs!
thats my vote for motto

No. Commandos are not heavy weapons experts. A commando is an elite soldier, trained to fight utilizing unconvential warfare, small units, subterfuge, stealth, suprise andliberal applications of high-explosives. In SWG, the commando's only apperant role is to the whipping boy of all the other combat professions. Our fx sure are neat though.

Lovely. So, as a commando, I'm not allowed to kill other players, just turrets and "to be added later" content. Even so, I can't PvP, because I cant stay alive long enough to kill a stationary object. But I'm real good at setting pikets on fire. Yay.Pistoleers can kill me from 64m and Rifleman can kill me even faster at 5m. And Brawlers can lunge 20m, thus, killing me.My flamethrower is only good 16m.
First and foremost, I actually have to be able to SURVIVE combat to get to said building. I dont not relish the idea of 9 trips to the cloning center just trying to get ONE shot off at a turret.
I'm still learning commando so my motto isn't going to be about how broken we are, but here it goes.
You can run, but you'll only make the the flames that are engulfing you body grow higher!
