Commando Archive

I just did a search to see the progress being made on the TestCenter server with regard to commando.

I was a little surprised, or not, to see that there wasn't much posted about commandos at all. There was a very good post by our Correspondent Garibaldi_di_Alia encouraging testers to pursue the Commando road in order to help those already gated Novice Commandos on the Live Play servers.

And then there was an endless page posting war by Popojiju and MrCreed. That was useful and fun.

But really other than that, there was not anything of substance.

Myself, as well as the rest of you, are hopeful that much work is being done on TestCenter as it relates to the Commando profession. This doesn't seem to be the case andit is of real concern tome.

I say this for a couple of reasons:

1) On TestCenter, when an update is made, the fixes are posted on the forum by an Administrator for all to see. When I looked at the update text, I saw no mention of Commando. I saw everything else. Basically the same type of fixes we see everyday at 6am PDT/ 9am EST. Why is that?

2) There are one, maybe two commandos now on TestCenter. How can they really test 'all' of the fixes effectively so that they are released live in a timely manner?

It is safe to say that I am not getting a real warm and fuzzy as to the Developers ideas of progress, as oppposed to ours, and what their idea of a fix is, as opposed to ours.

I sincerely applaud the efforts of Garibaldi and I believe that it is by means of the Correspondent that the Commando will finally be fixed. But, at what cost? Literally, how many paying months will it take of back and forth negotiating, between the correspondent and the developers,before Commandos are made to be what they were meant to be?

Food for thought.

The only way we are gonna get alot of Commandos on the Test Center is if the Devs work out some way to copy characters as a 1 time transfer(unless there is a wipe). I don't see many people wasting the large amount of time it would take to become a commando on th TC only to have that character potentially wiped. Also the lack of experienced weaponsmiths on the TC is going to make Testing commando moves and changes hard due to the lack of weapon availablity.

I myself just started a character on the TC if there are any weaponsmiths or other fellow aspiring Commandos on there that have weapons available to them that they wouldnt mind helping me out with it would speed my progress though the skills to becoming Novice Commando. My Test Center characters name is Behemoth. Please help me out there if you have the means to do so.

My live server character is Sseyton on the Lowca server.

i asked if this could be done someone respoonded sayin no and im late anyway cause there are already a few commandos there so i said really...any info on the fixes and i havnt seen any responses back = / so ive HEARD there are a few ppl commandos but no info
