So, I played a game not too long ago for the first time in about 7-8 months. Tried playing Team Snipers, but sat there for about 5 mins looking for a game. So I went to SWAT and found a game within seconds and now they added Commandos? Why!? 343 really hates KBM that much? I didn’t do too bad for my first game in a while but I swear I got robbed of at least 6 kills. Just hit marker after hit marker. Commando is so dog crap with KBM, they should of never added it.
Also, I felt a delay in sprinting which I don’t really recall there being. Every other movement felt instant but sprinting had a noticeable delay. This new?
It doesn’t work going up against a lobby full of controllers with a Commando. Have you seen when Frosty tried KBM out? He himself even said it doesn’t work with KBM.
Yes it does. Quit pretending controllers have this amazing advantage. Aim assist is strong in this game, but KBM can still be way more precise and doesn’t have to deal with slow turn speeds with turn acceleration settings even set at 5 being horrible.
Things are not going to feel the same after a 6-7 month break. Take a moment and hop into training mode. Get your bearings. Screw around with the weaponry.
That will help but until 343 buffs kbm, you’re still gonna be working your arm quite a bit with the aiming.
I didn’t do too bad, and I felt like the game was against me. I got a couple double kills and working on the 3rd kill and felt like the game was avoiding giving me the triple kill. Just hit markers after hit markers just to get turned on and one shot. I am/was pretty good at picking picking off when they jump because I can predict them but just getting hit markers until they either turn and find me or land, then I get one shot. Then I was working on a killing frenzy but the game said nope. Again got turned on after multiple hit markers and got one shot.
The reason they Added commandos originally was to be the “dmr replacement” it’s still a 1 headshot kill gun much like the sidekick, br, stalker, mauler, etc accept it’s automatic. ultimately the swat (tac slayer) is a headshot mode. So they threw the gun in there. I kinda enjoyed the game actually. Personally I like the commando over any other gun besides the battle rifle. My only gripe is the commandos optic. The sight picture is huge making it hard to actually pinpoint the head unless it’s closer. And by then they’ve got you beat. So it’s a fight of trial and error. Making shot counts and learning from when you miss to when you make an impact.
You should also take into account paying attention to enemy movements, and always thinking there’s a kid camping behind every corner. Because half the time there is. It’ll make life much easer. I’d rather waste a couple rounds pre shooting through an exit and there be no enemy over being domed after walking out with my hands basically tied because I didn’t expect there to be an enemy.
And Ik, EWWWW I pre-shoot the exit which makes it annoying for the enemy players. Yeah well it’s also annoying when you die for the fifth time to the same kid hiding in the same corner at the same door the entire game.
Yeah. The optic is a bit shorter. It’s like Halo’s version of the holographic sight.
The commando is terrible at picking off unshielded opponents. That’s one area that needs improvement. If the commando had decent accuracy when tapfiring, it would not be as bad as it is.
After all, it’s a “tactical rifle.” The way it performs feels like a scatter gun.
I just looked at the stats from that game and the other team had a total of 5 reversals, and I bet they were all from me. Two I know were from a double kill and one was from a Killing Frenzy. I thought it was three other kills I got robbed from but but maybe the one kill someone else got that I wasn’t fighting.

I actually enjoy the commando on KBM. It’s definitely a weapon with its issues, but at least in SWAT it’s not bad with KBM from my own perspective, not Frosty’s.
I play KBM commando swat just a little while ago. I didn’t do amazing by any stretch of the definition (13/9), but I was 2nd place in KD and got an overkill. I’d argue that commando is a bit more difficult to use on KBM than the BR, but it’s not so bad against controller players.
