Commando sucks.

[Dusty!]

Trying them out now, not seeing how they aren't just a worse version of any other class. In KF1 they killed gorefasts easy but they aren't even good at that in kf2. Am I missing something?

All the other perks get 1 extension if they're lucky. Stalkers deal more damage to players on HoE than big zeds.

Also any precision perk is universally better if you can aim. Zeds have a lot more body hp than head.

Yes, skill is missing.

[NekousagiKorouYTttv]

you're not missing anything, most classes in kf2 are garbage compared to meta picks like zerk medic sharp, anyone that cannot reliably deal with big zeds is only useful for farming money on waves 1-6

Commando is one of the strongest perks in the game. His ability to "extend" zed time and let everyone abuse their overpowered lvl 25 skills is the foundation of HoE+ games. Honestly hes the class makes KF2; KF2.

His main role is killing trash, you 1-3 tap everything to the head including gorefasts with minimal recoil and large mags making you very effective at this.

He melts scrakes with ease being able to 1 mag them with basically every weapon in his arsenal, his weakness used to be FP's but thanks to the FAL he can now 1 mag these too with a little practice.

The trouble is hes a precision perk meaning you need to land headshots to kill stuff and failing to land headshots means you are wasting your time as in KF2 enemy HP is split into head hp and body hp so hitting the body takes much longer and doesnt contribute to the damage done to the head.

The meta is always whats easiest and most accessible, my 60yo dad can spam as zerk/fb/demo/medic and win games, they're strong because the skill/effort requirement is low.
But if you have much experience with FPS games you can hard carry with commando, you can solo hold most lanes and as long as you have trash when zed time hits and you have lvl 25 team mates they'll be able to hold their lanes too.

A Commando can actually go to some random ass spot on the map and hold it by himself and still greatly benefit the team. Tho they do loose out on stalker callouts. That was actually a reason for me getting kicked a time or 2 but those same folks didn't know what zed time even was lmao.

Commandos full power level is realized when you have a team of level 25s.

Commando is great!

[Uberoot]

I feel that commando gets better at level 20, with the +30% damage perk

Apparently missing headshots if you think a gorefast can't be near insta killed by a commando.

[Wang]

commando is broken. The AK12 will one shot gorefasts. one of the meta loadouts is the SCAR for trash clear, and FAL for scrakes/FPs.
really good commandos can lone wolf so they can extend zed time without anyone hampering them, even taking down fleshpounds on their own.

Learn to spray control and go for headshots, you can't just rock n roll in full auto lol

Unless you're using the Minigun of course

[Shajirr]

The problem lies not within the class, but within its user.

Its a PEBCAK-class issue.

Commando sucks, if you need skill to use a perk then it sucks more than perks that don't need skill by default.
