First off, I have posted this in the D-Uni forums for our members, but due to general interest, I'm going to open up this program to the rest of the community.
I haven't said anything to my superiors in the Uni so if I'm all of a sudden booted.....is is probably why
NOTICE: SAVE THE COMMANDO!!!!
So I've been thinking about this idea for awhile now and think its time to present it to the rest of the Uni.
So my idea:
The ARC program.
What does ARC mean? -Advanced Recon Commando.....kinda catchy right?
Why would I want to join this? -Because you have the commando suit and want to become one of the best commandos in the game!
What is the purpose of this "program"? -It's designed to show players how to effectively utilize the commando suit. Right now, the suit is rather gimped when in use rolling solo. But in a squad, it can be the difference between taking an objective, or losing one. It will help players utilize the suit to its max effectiveness in both squad ops and solo ops.
What do I need to join? -all you need is at least the basic commando frame and be willing to learn/use the commando suit.
Who should I contact if I want to help out or join? -well right now it's just me but I have a few players in mind who are (IMO) slightly better at using the commando than me and as such would be great teachers on this class.
When will this program be? -that's the best part, it'll be whenever you want it to be! I was thinking of setting up weekly 102 classes (we squad and go into a match) aswell as the occasional 101 class/lecture. If the number of people interested suits this than I was thinking about trying to get a full squad of commandos going whenever enough people are on.
I will post more information in the following days as I sort all the logistical issues out.
Best regards, Fire

Q & A notes:
Did a basic overview of the commando suit. -A variation of the heavy suit. -carries 2 light weapons (ie an assault rifle and a sniper), 1 equipment slot at basic level. -can be a force to reckon with, however it cannot take an assault suit in a 1v1 situation. -slow moving, large hitbox.
Went over some BASIC fittings & tips for fittings. -use weapons that complement each other. (Make 1 weapon do +Dmg to shields and then the other weapon do +Dmg to armour. Ie scrambler rifle and mass driver) -use weapons that can counteract each other. (1 long range weapon and 1 short/mid range weapon. Ie assault rifle and sniper) -I personally recommend using a "compact nanohive" as this can heal you and resupply you with ammo. -sniper & swarm launcher is a good combo for long range suppression of vehicles and infantry.
Tactics for squad ops: -bring up the rear of the squad. -lay down suppressive fire/cover fire for squad mates. -thin out the ranks of incoming enemies. -if you have a swarm launcher, you should be the one destroying enemy vehicles.
Tactics for solo ops: -keep your distance from the frontlines -if you do decides to move in, avoid CQC situations and stick to places with lots of cover (hills work fine on open plains) -stick with the majority of your team (unless you are being pub stomped.......in wich case, do as you wish without losing to much isk :p)
I will edit this post as more/new tactics reveal themselves

I thought I would do something fun with this post and create: "Fire's commando Fit of the week"
These fits will simply be ideas for you to try when using the commando suit. You can swap the weapons on them or completely change the fit :) Feel free to post your favourite commando fit and I'll add it into this post. So without further ado, my first fit of the week:
Commando A-1 GEK-38 Assault rifle NT-511 sniper rifle Compact nanohive
Next fit:
Commando A-1 CRD-9 Assault Scrambelr Rifle Basic Mass Driver Compact Nanohive
New fit :D
"Hunter" Commando A-1 Toxin AR (or any other AR) Shotgun Scanner
Tips: when using this suit, it's most effective to flank the enemy and then take them out. I recommend practicing using a scout suit with a shotgun to familiarize yourself with how to effectively flank and shotgun your enemy.
Fits from T'orq: Commando A-1 Gek-38 Assault Rifle Exo-5 Mass Driver K-2 Nanohive Or If you want to run cheap: Commando A-1 Scrambler Rifle/Assault Rifle Mass driver Nanohive
More from T'orq :p Commando A/1 Rail Rifle Mass Driver/Assault Rifle/Scrambler Rifle Remote Explosive
"Orion" Commando AK.0 Kaalakiota Rail Rifle Duvolle assault rifle Basic (or flux) active scanner (basic is all you really need :p) Enhanced light damage mod. Enhanced shield extender Enhanced armour repair
Commando A-1 Scrambler rifle Assault Rail rifle Compact nanohive (or scanner) NOTE: I haven't tried this fit yet but I have a feeling it's pretty effective :p)
Another from Thanjac :) Commando A/1 Scrambler Rifle Combat Rifle K-2 Nanohive
Enjoy :)

Alright this is the "events" post.
To promote awareness, imma start an event night that will run every Saturday around 0:00-1:00 eve time.
Here's how it'll work.
We will have a "commando night" were everyone uses commando suits, everyone will squad up and go and play 1 domination. player with the highest WP/death ratio will win an isk award.
Entrance is 50k isk per player and you must be a part of the channel "ARC Program D-Uni" in order to enter.
All entrances will be sent to my alt "Sir Arthur Moneybags" and held until a winner is determined.
If we have 6+ players, the winner from each squad will move on to a secondary match were they will be in a squad with all the winners from the other squads and they will play another domination and the player with highest kills will win all the isk that was sent to my alt.
First event is Saturday (6 days from now), hope to see you all there!!!
EDIT: to clarify things, there is no equipment restrictions (any proto gear can be used.....seeing as the average life span of a commando is literally 15 seconds, it would be a waste of isk to run proto more than once)

Aero Yassavi wrote:And just to give some people more ideas, here are my two most used commando fits.
Commando A/1 Series Scrambler Rifle CRD-9 Assault Scrambler Rifle Wirykomi Triage Hive Basic Shield Energizer Basic Armor Plate
This is my frontline Commando suit. No need for armor reps when you are carrying the 70 hp/s Wirykomis with you, and also great for supporting fellow Commandos in the squad. Shield energizer helps get my shields up to as high as possible in the limited downtime between engagements on the frontlines. The combination of weapons allows me to effectively cover medium and short range engagements very flexibly with either choice.
Commando A/1 Series CRD-9 Assault Scrambler Rifle ELM-7 Laser Rifle Quantum Active Scanner Basic Light Damage Amplifier Enhanced Armor Repairer
This is my perimeter patrol Commando, working the outer objectives. Obviously any patrol job is only made better by the use of active scanners, so there's that. I don't get as much armor as I am not subject to as much enemy firepower, and in exchange I get to carry a passive armor repairer. Also since I usually have more time between engagements I opt out of the energizer in favor of a damage mod. The combination of weapons gives me a wider range to effectively assault my targets, from medium-far to up close and personal. This comes with the trade off of less flexibility, as each weapon as a very specific role in the fit. Added to "Fire's fit of the week" :)

Let's just hope CCP isn't cockteasing us.

On a side note, the Caldari commando seems to be the one I will spec into, due to my love so the RR.
Hbu?

Having the extra Speed and using the Plasma Cannon and Combat Rifle seems like a match made in ______ (whatever we call Heaven/Hell in New Eden). Before I make my choice, I will compare all the Stats and take the one that makes the most sense to me. Here is my current Command'oh Fit Command'oh A/1 Series Plasma Cannon RS-90 Combat Rifle Compact Nanohive Basic Shield Recharger Enhanced Armor Repairer If you have the CPU switch the Recharger for an Energizer. You do take a small Shield penalty but get the extra Recharge Rate. Added to the fit to the 3rd post :)
Idk how much faster the minmatar commando will be, people are making it sound like it's going to be scout fast, when in reality, it's only going to be slightly faster than the average commando.
Nice fit btw :p

Chit Hoppened wrote:I'm thinking the Minmatar Command'oh will be around the same speed (with Biotics) as a weighted down Logi (with no Biotics). I just really dig the medium range combat and having an AV option. The Slot Layouts are what scare me the most. If they all suck (more than likely) I'll skill into some other weapons to offset the crap that will surely be delivard. Indeed, slot layouts are terrible right now, but we have confirmation that CCP is going to take a look at the commando and edit it's slots/pg,CPU/ and shield recharge rate.
When the rest of the he commandos come out (here's for hoping that it will be 1.8) I'm going to make a big push for this program and we should get a whole bunch of players.

Wow we almost fell to the bottom.....
Bump.....
And a new fit
"The general" Commando AK.0 Balac's Gar 21 assault rifle Thale's Sniper rifle 2x enhanced shield extenders Enhanced armour plates (or armour repair, it's up to the player)
This suit is the culmination of all QQ ever know, you can redline snipe and get called a chicken or whatnot, or you can go frontline and put the mighty duvolle to shame....this is very SP intensive fit though so it is not recommended for the rookie commando.

Hey aero, I was thinking, once the other racial commandos arrive and the cloak arrives, we could probably do specific "branches " for the arc program (like one is AV dedicated and one is more assault oriented etc.)
Perhaps the AV division could be called "the juggernaut division" and the scout oriented division (the ones that use the cloak a lot) could be called "the shadow division"
Just a thought :p

Just a thought :p I doubt the Commando will be able to fit cloak to be brutally honest.... combining weapon, module, equipment, your slow speed, and higher scan profile, with cloak costs.....I doubt many commando fits will be effective with it. Meh, I'm going to hold my breath and wait and see, my basic commando has literally half of its pg and CPU unused on all of my fits.

Okay so first
http://i900.photobucket.com/albums/ac201/fireofprometheus624/image_zpsa21dc0ce.jpg
The original picture I found at the top of one of the pages on the website, I believe it was for one of those monthly emails when we got sentinels that this was up there.
Now, the enlarged pic of the Caldari scout
http://i900.photobucket.com/albums/ac201/fireofprometheus624/image_zpsca227557.jpg
I sent in a help ticket asking about this and got the usual run of the mill "we cannot comment on this"
And then a few days later, the picture was changed
EDIT:
http://dust514.com/news/2013/06/developing-game-mode-variations/
Second pick from the bottom, he's using an HMG, yet those are definitely not sentinel/amarr heavy hands looks like the Caldari medium hands, but that's just me

Who knows, maybe. CCP could of also changed the design yet again. Idk, but it is holding what looks like a rail rifle, and it's definitely not the medium Caldari frame....looks to thin to be heavy, therefore most likely a light frame,
Has a similar placing of lights on the helmet as that of the Caldari medium, has the regular steel grey of Caldari suits.....it just reminds me of Caldari.....
Did you check the last link?
EDIT: as for them changing it, I hope they don't....I rather like that version of a Caldari scout....

For the most part I've always been a bit of an omni-soldier, but seeing as this is likely the last respec we will ever get it may be time to change that.
Hopefully with the Commando buffs plus new racial commandos we will get plenty of students for this group. Agreed, this toon can do basically every role on the battlefield, although he only has 3 roles to proto (logi, commando and basic medium Caldari, wich I use as an assault)
I will definitely spec into scouts, there is no doubt, however, depending on if I like the scouts, I may or may not go past basic (although I do think the Caldari scout(?) will look awesome in black

Ehhh......I like my duvolle for those CQC situations I tend to end up in....although I will definitely have an Ishukone sniper/ kaalakiota RR combo...... (Or perhaps a complete kaalakiota Caldari commando )

True, although I never use Dmg mods (weird I know)

So I think I've got a solid commando ck 0 fit.
Kaalakiota rr Kaalakiota Sniper
Compact nanohive
Shield energizer (whatever level I have by the time 1.8 hits ^.^) 3x complex shield extenders 1 complex armour rep (or reactive plates)
Seems like a fast moving, long range monster and with all those shields, I'll be able to regen pretty fast (provided I survive the initial fight )
EDIT: forgot to add a shield energizer
And on a side note, what should I get? Complex armour reps? Or complex reactive plates?

Well true pretty much has summed it up, but the cal commando is definitely a long rabged fighter, urban combat and cqc fighting is your weakness, i suggest using a rr on all of your calmando fits.

I am not too sad as I made a few pointless skill investments that I do regret.
Could you maybe help me make a good Galmando? I want to be fast-ish with good close-quarters capabilities. I was thinking AR and Shotgun, which I heard was a bad weapon on the suit.
Is this absolutely true? Is there some way I could make this work? Or should I just skill into the Plasma Cannon like everyone else?
Any help would be appreciated. I would go Minmando (CoMindo?) but I know that is one of the most popular, and I hate going with anything too easy mode or overused........ If it feels easy mode, you are using it for its main role

First is a Gal Commando with a Burst AR and either a Plasma Cannon or a Shotgun (latter works well for Scout counter), tanked with an Enhanced Plate, Enhanced Rep (sometimes second plate), Basic Shield Extender (need to spec into higher) and the equipment varies from Rep Tools to Nano Hives to REs.
Second is a Cal Commando with a Sniper and a Rail Rifle, Basic Shield Extender, Enhanced Energiser and Enhanced Regulator carrying Allotek Nanohive (R) to work primarily as a sniping suit. Alright well it seems you have the jist of building a commando, my only suggestion is to make sure you have some type of rifle on every commando, this will help with virtually every situation.

Edit: What fits do you find yourself running as of late for whichever commando you use? Ummm well, calmando is always a rr + whatever weapon (Usually a sniper or AR)
Shield extender and shield energizer (gotta have that regen) plus a compact hive. ^.^

It would be great it you had some YouTube videos you could link that y'all make for commando gameplay advise. Any chance you are looking into offering this? Personally, I don't have the equipment and stuff to make videos, but I can talk to some people who may be interested in helping :)
If you are an year commando, join both channels mentioned in the OP, and join "PIE Ground Deployment" (they an all amarr FW channel and you will find lots of amarr buddies there)

You should try to recruit every commando you see on the battlefield, not just rely on a thread full of random fits that may or may not be relevant to most people. I'll invite them to the commando squadron chat, we'll run recruiting out of there :p

Also curious about fitting variability as a calmando. Ive got full 5s in fitting skills as well as armor/shields but I feel I might be missing something, im nanocircuitry 3 and generally run a real standard fit w 2 or 3 complex extenders, a rep/regulator, and a hive of some kind and im wondering if there's a piece of equipment I should look in to.
I might be stuck in calassault mindset or just mediocre play since returning from long hiatus, cant keep myself out of trouble anymore. Hmmmmm, I tend to go for Regen on my calmando, but if your going for ehp, than I would suggest having at least 3 blues between you and the nearest red, ideally, you want to be out of the range of your opponent.

Alright, then go amarr :)
Here is a solid fit: Amarr A-1 Scrambelr rifle Weapon 2 Equipment Shield energizer (basic) Armour rep (as high a tier as you have)
Use whatever equipment and weapon fits after the rest of the fit is set up as listed.
That should work, I use that as my amarr commando fit (plus a laser and compact hive)

Thanks that does help a lot. As far as tactics you do guys just do point defense with this suit? Or do you work the perimeter objectives? If you are going to be moving, stay with some blues....they make good meat shields and give you time to haul @$$ the opposite direction.....other wise, point defence is pretty solid.

Fit one minmatar commando with a proto swarm with Prof. 5 and something to defend yourself from incoming infantry ( CR would be the best choice here) and then put as many complex light weapon damage mods that you can on the suit and you get one hell of a AV armor damage dealer with the explosion damage bonus.
Team up with a gallente commando "Whale" (seriously they look like stranded whales or not?) who has a prof. 5 PLC and again put as many complex light weapon damage mods on that suit and you get an effective way to melt the shields of a caldari tank and the swarm Minmando takes care of the armor.
it's a little situational but it should help if the enemy tries to stomp a match with HAV's and LAV's.
I hope im not copying some others fit idea from a former post that I didn't read. Those are some pretty sweet fits, my only concern is the effectiveness of AV against vehicles in the current state of the game.
To be honest, right now the best counter to a tank, is a tank.....as much as I hate to say that.
But seriosuly, those are some nasty wicked fits!!!!

Ok so turns out, regen tanking a commando is pretty much the best way to go....even in a squad with a logi
Stack armour reps on a Galmando
Energizer and rep on amarr and min
And energizer on a calmando
I can use all 4 proto commandos ^.^
