Tomorrow morning... Oct 21?!? What gives?huh?
I was hoping it meant someone posted the wrong page, because we've seen the fencer weapons already.No, what happens is that the web pages are all handled with a big database.
During Friday Features and other events where a lot of people hit the same web pages at the same time, it sometimes gets a little wonky...
Weird. As a web developer that works with portal and content management, I'm having a hard time with that one anyway....
How do you know you aren't seeing some of the new Commando weapons? They don't need "Heavy" in the title or description to be a new Commando weapon

So one question Thunderheart.
What new weapons are Commandos going to see? Or is theCommando profession going to get kicked to the curbside again?
Look at Commandos now...we currently have a Pistol and a weapon with the word Rifle in the title...so we could be getting a new Pistol, Carbine, Rifle or Melee weapon for all we know...That is if Commandos are getting any new weapons...guess we'll have to wait and see 
All I'll say is that Commandos will be happy....Message Edited by garvin on 02-25-2005 03:07 PM

curbside by the looks of it...too bad caz it can be such a cool profession
Guys - please stop with the doom and gloom for no reason. All of the professions are getting a lot of love in the Combat Upgrade.
The information is just going to come out a little bit at a time as it is ready. Just because you don't see something is not a reason to assume the worst (thats just a bad habit =p )

Hey, let's give them a chance to answer before assuming anything. It's been all of 7 minutes (or so) since the question was presented. If after 90 minutes there's no answer, then we can start warming up the Flamers.
Cheers.
EDIT: See, he answered before I even hit submit. My comment on the answer is below.

JESUS FOLKS!
Commando weapons do not have to be labeled "Heavy Weapons". Right now we have the launcher Pistol as 1 of our weapons. The Proton carbine, Proton Rifle, Intimidator Pistol and Blaster Fists ALL look like potitial Commando Weapons!
We wanted more viable weapons that are good in all ranges, that includes getting weapons from other proffesions!
Also in increaces the number of possible commando mix proffesions.
Commando/Rifleman Commando/TK Commando/Carbiner Commando/Pistoleer.
All of thise become viable when they introduce new weapons to the commando proffesion that are not necisarialy "Heavy Weapons". Even more if they change it to give special moves or bonuses for thise weapons in the commando trees!
Simma down! Both the commando corospndents and any commandos who have been allowed to read the CU Docs have said we will like the changes! TRUST THEM!!

See? He posted before I even finished my reply.
Only thing is TH, other professions get a clue as to how they are "getting a lot of love in the CU" because they know that they use rifles, pistols, carbines or melee weapons. Commando's are just in the dark as to how they are going to be "loved."
Care to shed some light?
