Considering there are reports of pistoleers outdamaging us. I rather liked the Idea of each class doing something different, that or everything being completly the same. Legshot headshot bodyshot for instance all having the same modifiers, but anyway, how are crowd control pistoleers outdamaging "nuker" riflemen?

Probibly because the rifleman who got outdamaged by a pistol doesnt know what he is doing.
But I would like to see our damage cap on rifles raised another 200 points or so.

Or maybe its because carbines and pistols have harder hitting specials than we do. At the same time we have larger sac. All in all, we should be outdammaged in the long run or in the short run

At least we have 65m range, but yeah our damage should be on par with pistoleers.

Impossible, paint works on one target only, and commando weapons do an average 60% splash damage. So you'll hit hard the primary target, but not so hard everyone around.

Rifleman with one melee person is great, i pvp alot and tend to have a jedi or melee template, all i need is them to do an AB and i can rain hell down on my enemy's.

so all i can hope for is about 8000 on my main target and 3-4k on the rest? sounds ok to me 
especially as i follow with headshot.....still this may all fall apart as i am very unfamilar with the workings of commando so may not quit be understanding how specials from rifles work however

That plus the fact that they fire faster and their specials cycle faster...even if they do less damage per hit they are hitting more often so do more damage overall.
