Do you think anyone will actually play operative/heavy?

I will, occasionally.

I would roll with Soldier/Medium.

I am thinking light engie, I think using SMART to get up on hidden cliffs and droppin muh gunz to rain fire upon them sounds good to me. Maybe even position myself for some cross fire. Ill be like the Heimerdinger of Brink. Lol. (league of legends reference >_>)

Im gonna be the same. Getting turrets into weird places just seems fun to me.

I put my vote in as a medium soldier. Ideally the poll would allow more than one option, eh? ^_^

medic/medium and engineer ( or soldier ) /heavy . Hah , unstopable pair for both offensive and defensive :flamethrower:
p/s : shotgun rain approve

Beat me to the punch on class, Beat me to the punch on reference. >:(

Those are classes, not roles. With the different abilities and weapons there's a huge spread of roles any given class can play. Roles will be defined by body, weapon, class, and abilities.

And I think the Heavy Op is more likely than the medium Op.

Personally, I will likely be taking a Soldier/Light with a LR and Pistol and work a split commando/sniper role depending on what abilities I find that work.

they werent cool enough to do that

Engineer/medium will be my most used.....for now

I plan for my main to be a Light Operative/Medic.

I'm multi-role in the first place, and I'm planning on trying out EVERY combination to some extent.

Need multi-option poll, less restrictive.

I will - and I'll be good at it. It will be my goal to anger the Light Operative ninja wannabes, by showing them that a Heavy can play the role just as well, if not better.

Yeah, you should change it to a multi-option poll. My main characters are going to be a Light Operative, and a Heavy Soldier.

I think a light operative would be the coolest quickly running in and getting the objectives completed also light soldier with a shotgun(or medium if lights can't use shotguns).

Light ninja medic and possibly a medium engineer just to try it out.......mainly the medic though.

Honestly, without playing the game yet, I can't honestly tell you what I'd go with. I'm torn between med/heavy soldier, light/med medic, and light/med engineer. I personally don't care for the idea of an operative, as I've always done more of the frontline/support work (except in Halo, I always did slayer there).

The theory behind med/heavy soldier is someone who is more of a physical presence on the battlefield, rather than someone who's movement is deceptive. The theory behind the light/med medic is someone who can get around the field to support the team in any spot, but won't be picked off easily (gotta experiment between light/med for this). Engineer looks like a MAJOR support role, so I'd like to be able to move from flank to flank or wherever I'm needed. I probably wouldn't be sitting in the frontline buffing weapons (which honestly, never has seemed to make much of a difference to me, the health buff is much more significant).

What the? Light ops? Weird, could be true though, looks like everyone wants to be ninjas....
:bowdown: :bowdown: :toughninja:

Operative/light, so I can ninja across the map like a boss.

I lol'd at both of those.

As a medium soldier, I'd ideally be mobile firepower: able to support the heavies where needed, be the muscle on a flanking attack, or watch the main cohort's backs capably. i.e. variable/medium combat ranges with an assault rifle and ideally awareness perks.

I am going to make one of each with my 10 slots they give me. Then after a week straight of playing and no sleeping i will be lvl 20 on each of those. Then at that point ill delete them all and make everything i didnt make the first time!

i am going to be the tank soldier/heavy. I will not jump over the wall, I will just walk through it. NP.

First Light / Operative then Heavy / Soldier!

yah what would that be like running around as an operative??

There is a thread around here some where that points out the benefits of having a heavy op on your team.
