It might just be me but the commando feels very meh to use. I just can’t seem to land almost any of my shots. I can use every other gun in the game so far just fine but then the commando. It feels far to weak and hard to control. The damage needs tuned up a bit and the recoil is a bit much and needs to be tuned down I’d say. It feels so weird to use
They should slow down the rate of fire but increase damage. Even the BR does more damage than the commando and it shouldn’t.
the commando is prob one of the most pwerful guns in the game currently. However, it kicks like a mule after the first 4-5 shots. Given infinite has way less magnetism and a weaker aim assist, your gonna miss a lot of your shots if your are spraying it. I suggest not holding the trigger for that long and burst firing it for around 5 rounds. Its a 7 shot kill and is pretty effective
If anything, the gun should prob be nerfed slightly to an 8 shot kill instead of a 7

Yeah I’ve even tried timing my shots a lot more and not spraying it but it still feels to weird. I don’t think it should be weaker it’s doing the same amount of shots to drop a shield for a Spartan as the sidekick
I just want the DMR back. Ill take that over this anyday. But I wil say this time around, I actually like the BR. Never liked it in Halo 3. Only tolerated it to get good and understand it. But NOW??! I just need the sound to be more powerful.
PC players rave about it apparnetly, I’m on XSX and i find it nearly unusable due to its lack of AA and insane amount of recoil when its scoped in

Don’t take this the wrong why (as I am not trying to outclass any one) but in competant hands (which anyone can be after some adjustments), you can melt multiple players with it in seconds. You are right that it kills in the same amount of shots as the pistol, however the pistol is a precision weapon. Given the commando is an auto with the initial accuracy of the sidekick (and at longer ranges) for the initial 4-5 rounds, makes it a bit more problematic. If given the extra round need to kill, it just rounds it off nicely. Where you can do a 2 burst drop without it getting too wild.
Agree 100%, I can’t kill anything with it.

Oh yeah I bet it does melt. Any weapon can be deadly given to the right person. I’ll have to try the 2 round burst a shot
Damage tuned up?
It has an extremely fast ttk, more than twice as fast as the BR. If you hit the shots with both weapons that is. It’s not the easiest to control no but when used successfully it’s almost OP. On PC it seems like it’s just OP and really easy to use.
I’m not a huge fan of it either, but mostly because I didn’t really want another automatic weapon in the sandbox. I’d like it to have a bit more of a unique design, otherwise I’m ok with it, just don’t tune the damage up more lol.

Are you on PC or console? On console people leave it on the rack. There’s no aim assist at all to counter the recoil. Huge chore to use on console.

I’m on Xbox, and I agree it’s not an easy weapon to use, but it does deal a lot of damage as it is if you hit the shots. I’m hoping that 343 improves the aim assist before release. When/if that is improved I’m afraid that this gun will be too OP, I’m already afraid that it’s too Op on PC. I might just switch off crossplay for Infinite if it isn’t balanced out before launch, there are a lot of advantages for pc players.
The killtimes in the Academy for it is like 1 second (which is way to fast for a regular primary weapon imo) but it’s harder to use under pressure in games and in real situations.

u good pal? Commando needs to be nerfed

I agree that it shouldn’t be out gunned by the BR but I think they are suppose to be the same “tier” of weapon. It seems some weapons in Infinite are a part of a general class tier. So far we have lower tier (plasma, needler), mid-tier (br, cammando), high tier (carbine, shotgun, heatwave) and then power-tier (sniper, rockets, etc.);
So I think the Commando is meant to be a BR equivalent.
Maybe because I’ve always been the kind of guy who burst fires automatics but the VK feels amazing to me. I’m getting over 20 kills nearly every match I get ahold of it.
I’m on pc with a controller and it’s my favorite weapon to use. I would recommend against holding the trigger and instead adjust your aim before pulling the trigger for each shot. I do think it’s a bit weaker than the BR75 though; I perform a lot better with the battle rifle. But I enjoy using the Commando more and I really think that all it needs to make it more competitive with the battle rifle is to give it one extra bullet in the magazine.
