They seem pretty adamant about keeping skill is the deciding factor on who wins. So if during Beta it seems these "options," whatever they may be, are too much of an advantage I would have to assume they would scale them back somehow.

Clearly they don't want to chase everyone off before the game is even released.

Re: What's your role going to be?


I always loved getting a friend or two around or behind the enemy lines to unleash any kind of havoc we could. (Be it with engineering, hacking, infiltration or just well placed weapons fire.)

So I guess small quick transport combined with a versatile setup that adapts to whatever we find out there is my game.

You can't be "adamant" about keeping skill the deciding factor and then give people +1 chaingun damage for playing longer.

I am really leaning towards armor, though I gotta see the final product before I make a decision. Really want to go in an entirely different direction from PS1.

Didn't we have this thread already?

Probably light infantry(medic, if it has decent combat options). Then a combat vehicle of some kind.

Long range tactical support (sniper ) and medic so I can be useful in the indoor fights.

Re: What's your role going to be?


I love to ground-pound. I love the smell of exploding ordnance and the acrid aroma of expended rounds. I love leading my troops into battle, hearing them confidently communicating between themselves knowing they know their jobs; knowing they will always have my back.

I will serve my troops by leading them from the pointy end of the spear, with my boots on the ground.

Honor, Valor, Victory! Tis good to be CDL...

I'm looking forward to piloting air vehicles in Planetside. Also perhaps ships! I suppose I'd be in one of those roles

Re: What's your role going to be?


I anticipate delving into the command tree on behalf of my outfit, as I sacrificed early BEP in favor of CEP in PS1.

I imagine I'll diversify enough to let me function comfortably as a MA grunt (/engineer, if the role armament options shake out the way I expect them to) and I hope to be driving transports again (long live the Sunderer!), too.

Perhaps, down the line I'll apply some aerial talent to something niche like Liberator pilot. But squad support in the form of driving and leadership are my first loves.

Re: What's your role going to be?


I really have no certainty on what I plan to do since I want to see how the game works first.

But off the top of my head

1: MA/HA grunt ( Depending on how infantry battles stack up.

2: Engineer / Medi (depending on which has toys I like better)

3: Lightning driver. Seriously I fucked so many people over with lightnings and loved being able to be a one man nuisance army if not that then i'll probably tank it up.
