Well I think its very poorly worded. Not all operatives are light and how are Soldiers not tactical and they aren't one man armies. This is a team based game. On a one on one fight there are too many variables.

However for the sake of the poll operatives.

Well I would advise reading the Compendium the link is in my sig. There are 4 classes and 3 body types. Also there is no better class really it's a matter of perspective and how you intend to play Brink. If one class was better than all the rest everyone would play it and the game would be boring.

I think soldiers are gonna control the field more than operatives, but I think operatives are gonna get behind the lines and cause havoc more than soldiers. They each have their trade offs and all these vs threads are kinda pointless because the game is built for balance. No one size or class or any combination thereof is gonna be better in every respect than any other. What will determine who is better will largely be situational and/or environmental.

these polls are annoying me to no end.
the purpose of the game is to have all classes at all times and to do everything at once.

there is no way there will ever be a full operative team vs a full soldier team, since the objectives could not be completed.

further more we don't know much about the game since it still get's tweaked every day.

sigh, yes it does.
and taking all that information as granted may be a folly since they're still busy balancing.

consider all the information as getting to know how it will play, while not fully believing anything you just read, except for how it will be played

only very extreme situations. like if an operative is right behind the soldier with his knife drawn etc. or if a soldier is standing with his gun pointed directly at the operatives head. In most situations, however, they will be very even.

The problems with a lot of these "this vs that" topics, is that a lot of players approach things in a very selfish manner. Usually, the debate basically comes down to, "who could kill who faster/better?" In terms of a topic like this, where the OP is asking which class is better, the answer is simple - whichever class your team needs. If it was Soldier vs Medic, and your team had 3 Soldiers and no Medics, the Medic is better. If it's Soldier vs Operative, and your team needs to hack a terminal, for the time being, Operative is better.

its depends on the situations and the person behind the controller.

You cant say who will win because it more to do with the weight you are, classes only come into play with teamwork and objectives, not a one on one fight. I say Soldier as they are more effective during a match.

EDIT: The only difference the class makes is that the operative will be able to backstab the soldier, but what they are both doing lone wolfing is beyond me :)
