Commando Archive

I don't think the devs ever stated anything at all regarding whether we were a PvE or PvP class...

I dont think that PvP should be the focus of any profession.....but I do believe that we shouldn't get the snot knocked out of us by a Chef/Fencer! The Skill point cost should equal the benefits. And we deserve the ablitily to use more then one weapon effectively.

Even though the combat rebalance is a ways off it will hopefully be worth waiting for. As long as theit is actually taking itwill beagreat thing. The constant band-aid fixes that just about every other game gets, and many professions got in this game end up causing more harm then good in the long run. Compare any of the other profession's changes to the the chef revamp. It took a long time for the player-base to let the Dev's know what a chef really should do, (read: the Dev's to listen to the player-base about what a chef should do) but when it finally came out, theresults were simply amazing, and no ammount of band-aid style fixing could have achieved that. We can only hope that the same level of attention to detail will come into play with the upcomming combat rebalance.The Devshave put so many temporary fixes on a problem that needs a permanent solution, and at least they have realized it is time to stop the cycle, something which NO other game developers for any other game will admit. We as a player base just have to understand that it takes a very long time to recode the whole combat structure. It took years for this game to get initially released, and in order to make suchmajor changes toacore part of it is going to take some serious time as well. Commando will have its day in the sun again, and perhaps we won't be quite as insane as we were before (man I miss those days) but we will certainly be more combat effective in PvP and PvE.
