The absolute only thing I want in Commando is to make it so we actually have a chance surviving in PvP and actually do some damage. On my server, I belong to a PvP guild and I love the Commando profession but I can't really do much with it in PvP. I have to resort to my Swordsman skills to do anything. SO basiccly what I want and I hope that the rest of the Commando comunity agrees with me is the following:
Accuracy: I barely hit with my Flame Thrower and my Acid Rifle.
Damage: Sure we can do some damage, but the DOTs are just horrible now
PvP: I don't know what is up with this but the PvP with Commando is terrible
Range of the Heavy Acid Rifle: I think that since the HAF does less damage than the FT, it should have longer range
If you would like to add something, please do.

god damnit.
Look guys.
Commando will never be a PVP profession. Stop whinning. Take TKA like the rest of us if you want pvp. PVE is what we do. We burn animals. I admit that commando needs to be fixed, but not to do pvp. We should be pve powerhouses, not pvp'ers. Not even alittle.
Maybe you took it wrong, but that is what the dev's intended, and we're never gonna be pvp

Says who? It's satisfaction like that with the mediocrity that defines our profession now that will never get it fixed.

I agree in part with that. Commando is a PvE profession. I love it to bits. But I'm going up the Teras Kasi tree for PvP.
Commando should be fixed yes. But for PvP not really. I don't agree with the totally NON-PvP that's just pap.

Ditto.
Also, we are getting Mando armor because we are warriors. You can't say warriors shouldn't be good at PvP. Actually, they should be the best.

warriors against animals, not other PC's
And to you Raptor, we're always whinning anyway, thats what i've been told by several Dev's along with anyone who's written to one
"stop complaining and maybe we'll fix it"
I'm not being mediocre, im just acknowledging the facts, you should too.
EDIT: oh and 1-staring me really hurts my feelings guys, stop it, you're making me cry

Maybe you're whining, I try to offer constructive ideas on how to rectify the situation myself.
By the way, what the heck ever gave you the idea that commandos were designed for killing animals? That's the entire point of the ranger profession, not commandos. You're looking at the way the prof. is set up right now and stating that that must be what we're intended to be.
There are no facts whatsoever the state: Commandos are only supposed to be good at PvE and killing animals, that's utter BS.

Sauron I couldn't agree with you more. I was a master commando and a dable in CH, this is where one realiazes that commando are tanks. One does not use a tank against a single infantry men, (PLEASE no one be dumb and say "What about machines guns? Those r good against infantry" Cause i swear to god ill slap u) And ur also right bout this being the way the devs set it up, if u read the official SWG copyrighted explanation of the Commando skill it states, and i quote, "A fearsome foe upon the battle field, adept at taking out heavy targets and armored vehicles" Now where in there does it say "Can run round and kill anything they wont too?" NO WHERE! U wanna know why? Because if we were as killer at PVP as we are in PVE than all the other professions would be whining to the Devs justlike a large pecentage of we commandos are. Instead of running crying to the Devs about how "It's not fair! BOO HOO BOO HOO" Why dont u grow up, and find a way to use the positive aspects of the commando skill in junction with another. The game was not designed for players to only have one skill set, thats just not feasible. If everyone could just master one skill and go out and stomp a krayt dragon and 13 enemy faction memebers what would be the point? Please come up with a good opposing argument to Sauron's and mine, im am getting really bored of telling this same thing to people and no one coming up with a logical come back.

By the way when u guys decide ur done sucking on the baby bottle and wanna get out of your crib and play with the big boys, check out Garvin's latest post. While we are sitting here talking about something the most likely wont change, he is practically deciding the fate of the commando profession.

truethfully, i think that the devs when making this game and this profession were hoping that there would be a lot of PvP, not a butt load of holo grinding. There were a bunch of battlefields (however broken) set up through a bunch of planets that the devs probably hoped would be used by large groups of Imperials/rebels to use. On said battlefields, I would assume that the devs hoped would be lots of troops that would be fighting back and forth with commandos fighting alongside riflemen and such taking down large groups of troops.
Also, since commandos are supposed to be good at taking out armored targets and such, why is there only one in the game? (AT-ST) and the imperials cant even destroy it.

Many good points...all well made...the title "commando" says it all...we should be killing giraffes and elephants...what kind of muppet would think for a second that commandos should be involved in the the galatic civil WAR (such as it is)...???!!
