wil we ever see the removeal of unarmed for commando's ??

also id like to see us get some defences and even some things like weapon loads say a

high impact (knockdown)

stun (dizzy)

and others

also why not a heavy MG for the commando ??

Hate to tell you, but the unarmed prerequisite will most likely never be removed. It is a sinkhole for skill points so we cannot master something else as well. Not to mention this is an elite-hybrid profession and taking away the unarmed would negate that title. Others believe it won't be taken away because of hand-to-hand combat being associated with Commando abilities in real life, but lets be honest, at the level we have them through training for Commando, they are useless (they were even useless before they took away the VK certification).

As for the defenses, I wouldn't hold you breath for these either. That is the trade-off we get for being able to do a high amount of damage.We hit the hardest and are put in harms way more because of it. Just the way it is, at least with the weapons the way they are now.

As for the MG, Iam with you on this one. I have serious misgivings about the acid rifle. I would much rather have some form of repeating rifle or even have the beam rifle which was dropped (by the way a Weaponsmith friend of mine was able to make one of these recently and the stats areawful). I am not asking for this weapon to have the same damage output as the acid rifle, but be more along the lines with a rifle like thelaser rifle (I think getting something equivalent to the T21 would be overkill). I think getting a weapon like this would open up the door for possibly obtaining some form of status attacks like dizzy, etc. I doubt this will happen though, and if it does it won't be for a long time.I'll just stick with my flamethrower for now.
