So one question Thunderheart.


What new weapons are Commandos going to see? Or is theCommando profession going to get kicked to the curbside again?






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 )








i know..just a little bummed out caz of no new info...tho yea the weaps look cool.. they should make a geonosian rifle...lol.. really long a lot thinner at the end than the rest of its versions

It's not "Doom and Gloom" my dear TH.

It's just, that we've been running on fumes for so long. After sniffing flamethrower fuel for nearly 2 years, we're itching to get something more..tasty in our hands.

That or maybe have our other weaponry fixed into such a state that we might even use them.

Nevertheless, any 2 would be a gift to the commandos, but..uhm..as I said, we're running on fumes. We need more than just hollow words. We need something thats more, something we can look at, point to and dream about...Not just hollow words.

You of all should know that TH..You have given us such hollow words before..That was not a pleasant experience..for any of us






I see you're not a fencer then


Fencers dun have flamethrower fuel to sniff




Lol, true. I was just pointing out that we've had the same few weapons at our disposal for some time, the strongest of them actually being sticks, and no sighting of the famed junti mace.

Care to duel me with... sticks?

You know at school, when you did the fullwrite up ( before and after) of the experiment, after you have actually done it?





Using my finely attuned skills from a while in the games industry and total intergalactic oneness ( Ace Ventura), I am speculating, that all the docs being read now are about systems, items, interactions they have already coded, at least on a base level.



Tweaking comes with feedback first from Corres, then CU alpha testers, then Beta testers - but the base is alraeady there. The base of our future game is already sitting somewhere.


Dont expect the whole process to take long to implement, after alpha is opened up.

Do I look suicidal to you? You think Commandos are suicidal huh? cuz we toss grenades that rip our legs off while the enemy just gets some wind his way? Cuz we set people on fire from close range and try to blow things up with rockets? You think we're insane, because we play with a leaky Acid rifle, just so we can fire it off once every milennia, only to be stomped by the angry Gronda we just missed?


Hrmpf..Stickfighters!



So, whens the duel? Bring marshmallows, as I've learnt to grill em just perfect, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside

True, thanks for the info.


Btw, I think many of us are just dieing for as much info as possible. And we can't wait to get more, especially for each one of our professions.

Oh wait! I figured it out! When you said that Alpha would start "after the Holidays" you meant that holiday that happens on those rare and occassional February 29's! The High Festival of Leap Year = Rocvember-nalia!

Now that I can relate to


I understand its been a long wait. I empathize, I really do. (Don't forget I still play on live almost every day and my main is a Commando).


Sometime next week we should have an announcement for you next week on why there has been an extra delay.
