Okay Commandos have many weapon certifcations making them extremly deadly however, 2/3 of these weapons are disposable having a few shots before it is no more. I mean I can understand the grenades but the Rocket Launcer, Heavy Acid Beam, Heavy Particle Beam Cannon and the Lightening Beam Cannnon. But I mean these are all very good weapons but I mean with limited use it makes them bad. The devs should either make so that there is ammo that you can buy for these weapons or make them unlimited use weapons. Because seriously these weapons can get very pricey... and to keep buying them is just like throwing money down the drain. Anyone agree with me?

This is not the first time this is brought up, and most hardcore comandos agree with you on this.
Our former corr Garvin, and hopefully our current one, Starnick, is driving an issue to have a "launcher tube" with interchangable ammo packs.

Funny you should mention this....
The idea of a reloadable HW consisting of ammo packs (each ammo pack would represent each current disposable weapon...so there would be one that has rockets, one that has a high powered beam, another acid, etc), has crossed the commando discussions in the CU boards from time to time.
Even once from the devs, If I do remember correctly....in the notion, if we need that after the CU it could be a possibility. From that, however we're speculating theres some changes at least, maybe even fundamental changes to how our disposables work (with grenades, theres a good chance that the stack limit has been upped par to our requests). Currently, theres no hard information on numbers (since we're not in testing) nor on the schematics/behavior of weapons. So atm its just speculation on exactly how differently our weapons will function or be made.
If fundamental changes have been made to our disposables...who knows? We may be seeing some of the beam weapons not to have charges, or something of that nature. Personally, Im a bit curious on exactly how they changed those weapons...but one thing we're positive on: Post-CU all our weapons, disposable to non-disposable...all will be as destructive as they should be, and as useful as they're ment to be.

I belive commandos need a new unique backpack 
so that we can store all are ammo in it. i do belive it should have commando mods on it to! 
it would be a very big pack that has 80 spaces and would be certified at novice and would be a mark to show that we are the commando!!!

Hmmm... a Commando back pack... thats not a bad idea but why not take it a bit further then that eh? Why not a Commando Jet Pack that can not only hold 80 items but also give commando bonuses. Make it a loot of some kind... becasue I mean Commando's and Bounty Hunters are like the two biggest rivals and Bounter Hunters have all the good stuff... they god Mandalorian Armor (Though Commandos can wear this too but you only see BHs wearing it and its funny that the two greatest BHs of all time wear it) they got the jetpack... I mean it matches their Madalorian armor... (again an item that the two greatest BHs have) and they have their own type of back pack. Not to mention the Ubese armor which is like a form of a BH armor I believe. I mean damn, where is the commando armor? And the Commando packs? And the Commando mission terminals? Heh just something to ponder about. On my server Commandos and BHs fight a lot and I think if us Commandos hadsome more supplieswewould be more proficent in dealing with them. Like armor that is specifically for us and packed designed for us giving us special atributes.
