Hey fellowCommandos master commando here,Like alot of us here we are waiting till commando is revamped or given more *stuff* I was wondering and this has to be answered by those who know.
where is commando profession heading? i have read some threads and couldnt read them all do to timeand it seemssome things are gonna happan and tell me if i am wrong plz. 1. Commandos are gonna be turret gunner. 2. commando is gonna be spec ops ex. sneaking into bases and kicking the crap out of some imps 3.Commando is gonna be given better *Heavy weps* but 1 shot hit to us we die. You know i feel things are looking up but still i am wondering what is likely gonan turn out with my profession. i would liek to do spec op type ofstuff than take out ATSTs that i rarely see or turrets that i also rarely see. that is my 1 cent

Commandos become turret gunner? I can see it happnening. But Im not at all for it to come before a revamp or something.
Spec ops? Best all around fighter, very lethal to every enemy we encounter - sure. That would actualy justify out 169 skill points used to become a marksman witha flamethrower.
Better weapons? It better happen... or give us rifleman style speed...so we can hit speed can and do flamesingle every second
Right now, theres nothing that exacly says what the SWG commando actualy does. We dont even know ourselves. The proffesion is a bigger mess than Donald Trumps hair and a fix could take months.
A lot of ideas are being thrown around on the combat role of commando and how we should compare in damage with every other elite proffesion. Some people still think we should be anti-tank, althoug theres no tanks, and at-st's can be taken down easily by a buffed group. Some say we should be ( like you ) spec ops; taking out enemies at any range, swiftly, and very effectively.
Right now, were the main heat damage dealers. Once TKM gets thier new toy we areat the point where it is at the same level of usefull ness as... squad leader. Yes.. i said it!

Kyle Katarn was a commando...
Crix Madine was a commando...
The Rebel Soldiers w/ Han and company on Endor were commandos...
The ARC Troopers were commandos...
Dash Rendar could be considered a commando...
The Majority of the info on commandos i believe are really from the games....which the devs obviously didnt consult...absolutely none of the already defined SW Hvy weapons or commando/spec ops weapons...zilch...and how they regard the class..is NOT a SW Commando at all...but like the Hvy Weapons Trooper from Infantry....meanwhile the commando in that game..can CLOAK himself..SNIPE...and do HIDDEN SNEAK ATTACKS..and is VERY POWERFUL ON THE MOVE...but he has low defenses in a straight fight..we cant fight a straight fight atm....but we arent very powerful either...
Devs need to go back to Dark Forces and play a few levels...or try Republic Commando...or look at our own Armed Forces

Edit: Lmao..try doing that with RL...seekers at least home..most likely you'll miss a few shots, and only hit weak pings off the armour with an RL... by yourself that is

The ARC Troopers were commandos...
That reminds me... I would love it if a MC/MP could duel-weild those spiffy blasters the squad's leader had!
