Just kidding, but I wanted to make a point that all the posts calling for such are a waste of time, seriously. There is no way these guys are going to restructure the commando skill set, weapons..etc.



We should quit wasting our time asking them to do so and concentrate on fixing what's broken and getting this thing up and running asap. Besides, how many of us are willing to wait around for years while they reconstruct the commando skill set, weapons..etc? I'm certainly not willing to wait it out that long.



Instead we should concentrate our compaints on things that can be readily fixed, not our perfect vision of the commando because quite frankly, despite the vast amount of great ideas, it ain't happening.

I disagree. Look at the changes they've made ot the CH and to the Ranger. THe CH got totally revamped. The Ranger got some internal restructuring. I think they are going profession by profession, after seeing how bad the CH was messed up and working out all the issues with that profession, possilby including total revamping. The BE and the DE got fixed up mostly as well. I think they are doing fixes as they see thm based on the surmised ease of the fix, a couple frofessions at a time.If they see something totally screwed up, they wait until they can rework it completely...this is aside from the CH which everyone was complaining about and wasglaringly unbalanced as too powerful. Something that only the players of a profession are complaining about as unbalanced (such as lack of power/ability) isn't as high a priority, and they may want to wait onlooking over many responses to find all possible solutions b4 implenting one of them, as a total revamp. Just my opinion, though.

Yep, ranger is getting a complete overhaul. They hotfixed the T21 not once, twice...but three times. I figure by the end of September, which will make it 3 months since game launched, that the classes will be as they should be. If not, hey, WoW and FFonline will be out (wow in beta).

That's hardly a complete overhaul like some are calling for on Commando.

our class tree *needs* an overhaul


primarily, cuz we're still stuck in transition...there are many things about commandos that was suppoused to make up the class, but then was ditch, and they're changing or changed (for ex: in the manual how it said we construct our weaps and required engy IV)


thats the major problem here...we got some components (i believe for nades) to construct, but no way of using em - because we were but now arent suppoused to have the ability to do that - many of our weapons are broken, or are messed up because most undoubtedly, they hurriedly changed the tree around before launch (like how flamer is considered a melee weapon, acid spec was originally had to do with manufactering components, etc)

If they would just make the 'extremely powerful' weapons work as advertised I'd be happy. No way in hell I'm waiting around fora complete overhaul to commando. That could easily take months if not years considering the lack of progress thus far.
