Now I know that the classes will change because of different objectives. So, I ask you people, what do you think the most used class or classes will be?

At first, I think we'll see a flood of Light body types.

At first I think we'll see Op swarms.

Over time, it should all balance out, as players stop thinking "ooh, imma show off my awesome par- WHY AM I DEAD?!" and start thinking "I'll stick to a Medium - I still get to play with SMART, but I can survive a couple of hits now" instead. Or "Well, I like the parkour thing, but I'm just better as a tank - HEAVY!"

For Classes it'll be more like "Imma sneaky sneaky-WTF? WHY AM I NOT DISGUISED? WHO CAN SEE-" *dead*

This should turn into "Well, I'm better at tanking than that sneaky stuff - I'll go Medic/Soldier/Engineer and help out the team" and "Well if I stay with teammates, I'm not really that useful as an Operative, so I'll get no XP that way. And if I'm going solo, I get killed and also get no XP. Guess it's time to try something else."

Ultimately: Medium Soldiers & Medics.

People seemed to be raving about the Neers during/after PAX, I anticipate a lot of them to surface.

DAMMIT!!! I hate playing the class that everyone chooses. If everyone in the world went Resistance, I would say hell no, I'm playing Security. If everyone in the world used the Barrett sniper, I'd say screw that and use the Drognav rifle, if everyone chooses engy, I'm saying [censored] YOU! and playing soldier

And if everyone is playing Brink, you'd say "screw that" and start playing tetris? :tongue:

Light operative sitting way behind friendly lines trying to snipe people.

Tetris IS pretty awesome to be fair now.

I heard soldiers have an ability which brings up a tetris screen and if you place blocks on the screen then the blocks appear in game and crush all the enemies....

-obvious troll is obvious,

anyway. I plan to be playing a heavy medic with self revive just to annoy people They have a tough fight against my minigun and then bam i just revive myself anyway I might go with a light soldier too for the whole run and gun deal.

Heavy op just to troll,

You'd need support - when you're down, it takes you longer to self-res than it takes them to finish you off. you can only use it when incapacitated, not fully dead. if you have someone else to distract them, though, that would work.

Maybe a nice stealthy Operative dropping out with SMG or Machine Pistol as you go down - enemies redirect their fire, you get back up, mow them down, and patch up your friend.

It's a shame you are on PSN i think me and you could tear some people up online

We both have some great ideas on how to play this game.

XD I'll fill oblivion's roll for 360 hahaha

Haha, hopefully. I'm trying to convince my friends to get the game but they were like "well i will rent it first, i'm not sure about this multiplayer business"

They are call of duty players mainly, but they are always open to other things. And even on call of duty we don't play TDM... ever. We play HQ and Domination and CTF mostly so they are no strangers to objective, i think they just kinda got confused with the whole approach to this game.

But hey, if i can get a team of 8 down that would be so great!

I really like the idea of a heavy medic - perfect mix of firepower and support abilities. I'm personally going to be rolling as a engi and I'll be focusing primarily on buffing/turret placing/mine-laying. I'm gonna be a light so that I don't get bogged down in heavy combat and I can get in and out of hot zones quickly to maximize my effectiveness

If I was on 360, I'd still be security.

My primary character will be a Medium Soldier, however I intend to play all classes.

I'm probably going to be a medium soldier for my first class. I might have a heavy soldier that I'll use to break up groups of enemies. I'll always have medics and the other classes as I have rallied my friends to join the fight.

Well in this game Body Type and Weapon have just as much to do with "class" as the actual class does.

I expect to see more

Heavies
SMGs
Engineers

But not neccesarily all in one.

well, the only other great class based game with a hot following is hat fortress 2 (know your memes fools)

And in that everybody plays engineers pretty much. So i'm going to have to say engineers will play a big part in this game.

Lol I was gonna say that but I wanted to be more serious <_<

Swap "Tetris" for "Frontier: Elite II" then?

for 360 i expect alot of engineers or ops with barrets the first week when its released. hopefully alot of bfbc2 fans get brink that way there will eventually be alot of medics. ill be playin soldier and engineer myself

I'm going to go with light medic. Light because I can get to my team mates quicker and medic, simply because I like taking care of my team.

I'm definitely expecting more medics than engineers, and unfortunately soldiers will probably be a minority

Why so unfortunate? They have a very specific set of uses between crowd control and objective demolition, and ammo handouts which are rarely neccesary in large amounts in any respawn game.
