The Republic Trooper progression video came out today as the Friday Update, and it was extremely well made. I suspect that Brandon Miletta and Brooks Guthrie worked on this as part of their new jobs at BioWare with the Creative Services Team. You can check out the video here, in case you haven't seen it already: http://www.guildumbra.net/custom.php?gid=111348&page_id=&page_id=81620
The Commando is the Special Operations advanced class that focuses more on DPS, while the Vanguard is the TANK or front line soldier. They both can deal and take a ton of damage relative to most classes, thus I suspect they will be a core backbone to successful PVP or Raids. Not everyone can carry a glow stick, and their capabilities, like those of the Bounty Hunter, have very great usefulness in shaping a battle.
Thank goodness they are working on the cartoonish looking hands to get them down to a normal size. Here, this trooper seems to have better hand size...unlike what we saw in the Sith Warrior models in the Sith Warrior Progression Video a month back. Hmmm, we have gotten 3 character progression videos in like 5 weeks time.....hmmmmmm.
If nothing else, these lapdogs are loyal to their masters, as witnessed int he Hope trailer and again here. The learning point here to all wanna-be Inquisitors is that there are many FORCE lightning bolts and some are channelized like this one...thus you have to remain in place as it is firing. If you move, then the arc is dropped...but it will pump out a ton of DPS if you can remain planted. This is similar to the Trooper's heavy blast that you see the Commando do to that crew of imperial troopers and the huge droid. Either way, have situational awareness prior to use to avoid the imminent beat down this Zabrak femail Sith Inquisitor gets.
Hope to see you all in Vent this weekend, and hope to test out TeamSpeak 3 with Mr. Fester.

I'll admit, the Commando has one serious BFG.

Awesome update, I was hoping it would be a timeline this week.
