your and class bodysize

(TJskwared) #1

what class and body size are you going to be, how do you think the two will complement eachother, is anyone planning on being a heavy opperative?

i’m fairly unoriginal - in team games, my style is mostly focused on speed and getting objectives done as quickly as possible. light operative mainly, due to the all-important command post capturing system, but depending on the map (and how many operatives there are already), light soldier could also come into play, but likely not as often. i am generally never very good at playing real support roles like engineer or medic, sadly, so i’ll leave that to people who like to do it, unless truly called for.

Heavy medic seems very appealing right now.

Perhaps a heavy operative can be used to clear out turret chokepoints.

or with a slightly incompetent team, be able to effectively clear out the enemy to get to command posts. and allow the team to advance. the possibilities are pretty huge with this size/class mixture.

Light with whatever class has low-rof, high dmg guns.

I’m going to copy/paste stuff from this thread http://www.splashdamage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21528 but I need to get some sleep first, sorry.

It’s not a duplicate, this one is about personal preference while the other was about balance.

(H0RSE) #9

Medium Engineer for me. I like the flexibility to perform a broad range of movement, whilst being able to carry the larger weapons (Shotty :D) and still have a decent amount of health to compensate for getting caught off guard. I’ve never enjoyed the large machine guns or noob tubes or slow movement so the heavy has no appeal for me.

I will more than likely build a light soldier also for giggles. I like the hit and run tactics in TF2.

My Mrs will be making a medium medic. She loves the support roles, but doesn’t like complex maneouvres, so super flexible parkour moves don’t hold an appeal. Similarly she’s impatient, and so won’t be able to deal with the speed of a heavy (Watching team mates run off into the distance and having to wait whilst she’s trotting behind).

A friend who plays online with us most nights will likely be a medium operative. Between us we should have a pretty capable team to compliment eachother I think.

I’ll be using whatever the smallest body/class you can get away with using a sniper rifle with.

(maxtalent) #13

maybe it was wraith on the bethsda forums? ahh whatev some is going to play as it.

(maxtalent) #14

light engineer for me

(Joshua Morrison) #15

I’ll probably medium body and I will defiantly be operative unless someone else can backstab.

(Nattyboy97) #16

I will be a light - medium operative, but if there already is a lot of operatives or if there is a lot of engineer objectives then I will be the engineer.

(Badmagix) #17

i’ll prolly make a dozen characters, i think light class sounds the most appealing since guns usually kill people really fast, and headshots usually kill people in 1 hit reguardless to how tough they are. im going to be a soldier since im awesome at using hand grenades, and i like assault rifles with grenade launcher attachments.

(Global_Insaneo) #18

Does anyone know how many create-able characters you are limited to on the console version?

(Badmagix) #19

i heard in a video that you can make abunch at least 16.

(H0RSE) #20

you can make 16 characters

Also, Paul mentioned they are play testing with around 50-60 abilities spread over all 5 categories - so that’s about 10-12 abilities for each.

Also, the current lvl cap is lvll 20.
