I like the paintjob, but lot of Mechs just won't see it. The Commando is just too small out of the Cockpit of a Heavy or Assault
Still hoping for a Hero-Atlas!

What more could I ask for? I would ask for an ECM or the following:
1. Make it so streaks can actually miss. I always laugh when I see streaks looping around a mech until it hits it. Sure streaks can home-in to the target but they should have inertia and not be able to turn instantly. Then having a mech that can do a quick anchor turn and potentially dodge unskillfully fired missles will make it useful. Until this is fixed, this mech is just pretty looking streak fodder and food for the ravens.

Obviously you don't use streaks because then you would know that they do miss and they don't do crazy turns and yes you do have to watch your angle when shooting. I pilot a Jenner 7D and when you are doing the circle dance with another light you have to lead your target by a fair amount or the streaks will go past them. The benefit of streaks over a standard SRM is the tighter grouping and the lmited tracking ability. The downside is its only two missles not 4 or 6 at a time.
I would advise you learn to dodge when driving a light mech and use the terrian to cut corners. Good luck and see you on the battlefield.

Commando with ballistic hardpoints - that's the fun.
Well, there is the COM-1C variant (introduced in 3020) - it's primary weapon is an AC/2 carried in the Right Arm (with one ton of ammo in the Right Torso), backed up by a Medium Laser in the Left Arm.

And it's not in MWO.

I have a master class Command COM-2D that I didnt pay for. It's primary weapons are streaks. Since you drive a Jenner, you too should know that once a raven is on you with streaks, you usually have two options. The first is fall back into the group and try to peel them off you. The second is engage in a circle strafing war. In your case you may have a chance because of the amount of armor. In a Commando, it is a losing situation. You both end up getting the same number of streaks off, but the raven almost always wins in this situation. I dont have a Jenner, but I know when engaging with one, I usually have a better chance of coming out alive, than with a raven.
