Thread: BAH! For Those Wondering About the Commando Before Smuggler Thing...
Here's my 2 credits worth....
Being both a smuggler and commando, I see that both professions need some serious help. HOWEVER, commando's fixes would take less for the dev team to implement then smuggler, which is why we will most likely see them get changes first.
A few weapons changes, some damage changes and bam! commando's will be happy.
The problem with smuggler is that it's the only profession in the game that cannot do what it's title states. This alone will require a complete revamp as opposed to some quick fixes.
As far as the expansion goes...I'm rather po'd that jedi get another expansion geared towards them, and we have yet to see any content added from the time period we are supposed to be in. Great, we get a bunker house if we buy it.....that same bunker house was supposed to have been a 2 year vet reward. No other profession gets a specific item bonus from getting "glowy world" except jedi. Whoopee, we get another ugly, useless mount. And if you're really good, and smile and give them your money, you get a YT2400. It may be a pretty planet, but I didn't start SWG to play a jedi or play during the clone wars. I started because SWG was set in the movies I remember. Where's Hoth? Where's Bespin? Where's the "hiding" jedi? Where's Ord Mandell? As it stands, "normal" toons are just cannon fodder for the jedi plague. Not all of us wanted to be jedi when we grew up.
