I'm going to stay as focused and unbiased as I can at the moment (I work in software development too so I know the pain) but this is starting to become completely unacceptable.
Commandoes have been completely ignored for the last several months. We never had our top 5 issues resolved and all requests for this have been met with no response from the devs. It's a large game, tons of profs to get to but our proffession is still fun. The flame thrower is our only viable weapon (although heavy weapons can be handy at times -- as long as you're not inside anything) so I was able to be patient and just look forward to the day that this would be fixed. I assumed the combat pass in a couple months.. Not exactly what we wanted but doable.. Patience.
Today I do my daily pass at the commando forum only to see that we now have three nerfs in the mix for us on TC or development NONE of which we (commandoes) had any say or notification on.
1) Not being able to stack dots. As I stated we have one working weapon and part of the reason it's so useful is the fact that we can stack our dots.
2.) Flameout made by chefs will now prevent 85% of damage by our specials. We already have an 8-12 wait after we use the specials on our one working weapon now it might not land. Stacked with the DOT nerf we will be able to hit for 50-100 pts. Very worth the delay.
3.) This is in concept I believe but it is the most directly involved with commando yet there has been no mention of it to the commandoes themselves. The fire extinguishers. There is not a commando on the boards who isn't offended that such a class breaking feature hasn't at least been mentioned in the commando forum.
PLEASE give some sor to explaination for the complete lack of communication with the commandoes. We would love to have some sort of say or at least idea of where our profession is heading. I know my participation in this prof as a single player does not matter in the overall scheme of things but I hope that the fact that I will be leaving commando when these hit after knowing I wanted to be a commando when reading a CGW world preview years ago talking about one makes some impact.
I'm sure I've gotten too worked up to even get a response from the devs so maybe someone a bit more level headed will type up something that will get one.

Want to hear something funny. I left smuggler because this profession is still better than it. I am just starting in this profession. Next time you feel you are neglected go through the smuggler profession boxes. Pay close attention to Underworld and Master. I hope they fix all of them but we are all probobly going to have to wait until the space expansion before we get somewhat fixed.

actually fire extinguishers were mentioned in our forums by a fellow commando but the guy said something about high delay mind cost and doc only item which is fine with mei wouldnt mind it being a doc only type dot heal...its bad enough when they added decay most pvp doesnt happen anymore...but now the fact the 85% damage chef food will be in play pvp will almost be worthless oh how i miss the good ol days where you had to run to your corpse to get your items with the chance of the agro mob that killed you still being on top of it
