Something I've noticed, In the bounty hunter video, and also the Hope trailer. Troopers have had rocket launchers. I'm not saying troopers Should get them, since it's known that bounty hunters have rocket launchers, but it would be kinda cool.
I'm happy with the chain gun sure, and having the best "armor" in the game, but who wouldn't want to shoot a nice HE rocket into a troop of mobs sending parts /bodies flying in all directions?
I'm wondering if different weapons for the Trooper will be like "stances" or lightsaber forms for the Knight. If the Trooper has a rocket launcher equipped, for example, it can do X Y and Z ability, all rocket-related, but it certainly can't do some basic blaster abilities (like sniping or full auto). If the Trooper can easily swap between weapons in a fight (which evidence suggests is the case), we could see some really cool combat styles come from this class.
That would be nice, a little mechanic like in relation to wow's fighter? where they have 3 stances they can be in, one for "protection" one for "balance" and one for "all out gung ho do damage, screw the taking damage." (I don't know the exact stances, since I play a priest mostly) Sounds like an easy/ good mechanic to be able to use all the trooper's abilities (like combat roll to a log, to throw a grenade)
If the rocket launcher is included for the Trooper, as either an ability or weapon, is it fair to assume if would only be for the Commando. I don't think its really in line with the Vanguard to be carrying around a massive rocket launcher, food for thought.
You can fire an explosive round that kinda looks like a rocket, it makes a cool sound too. It's not a rocket for sure, it comes out of your gun, but it's still pretty cool.
In the Flashpoint video where the Republic is overthrowing the corrupt, self-proclaimed King of Corellia (?) it shows the Commando Trooper fire a rocket launcher at one of the shield generators protecting the guy. I believe in the "Info Gathered on TOR So Far" thread in the main forums it lists the Commando as having a rocket launcher, as well.

That specific rocket launcher is apart of the flashpoint.
