    I was thinking that there should be another class which will bring new play styles to players and can be useful like heavy assault and Light assault which can destroy vehicles Combat medic which can be bring dead team mates to live and change the tide of battle and etc, etc you get it I dont what the new class would do but you tell what you think.

    The day Daybreak Games gives an ounce of respect to the mechanized assault class will be the day that feels like we actually have a new class.

    Pilot Class or Driver Class.
    I am a terrible pilot but a pretty good driver, though their are amazing pilots in game and drivers with skills that defies belief. Having a dedicated class that could cater some benefits to those who really love driving and piloting those vehicles could be a very interesting choice with new options for that style of play.:cool:

    Noice thanks for the recommendation and yes they should add ONE of those two classes.

    There are two ways we can go. We can either overhaul and rebalance each of the existing classes to accommodate a sixth (not counting MAX), or we could completely overhaul the gear system, and switch to something resembling the PlanetSide 1 gear system.

    Or, we can do option three, and do nothing. We can add more implants that are LA and more importantly Engineer specific, so they can be used as a custom pilot or driver loadout.

    Personally, I think the amount of work it would take to design a unique sixth class, combined with reworking the other classes around the new one, is too much to warrant the addition.

    For what purpose. Classes have become less and less specialised over time - especially with implants and ASP.

    Many classes have access to what is in effect a sniper rifle. All classes can now access cloaking technology. All classes can self heal and self restock ammo - and one implant even gives the ability to res yourself too. Most classes have access to C4.

    As Blam says, rather than create more classes its better to start enhancing current classes with diversity and variety so that even a single class can be considered to have sub-classes.

    "Pet class". Remotely control mini-mechs (MAX like units). There's AI for turrets, add it to 'mini-mechs' with robots following us around/remoting running into a room and detonating.

    They need to add a class that can cloak and spot enemies better than other classes and most importantly can Hack Vehicles... but DOESN'T get access to SMGS. ...

    ... that woulda been a really balanced class from the very beginning of the game that woulda been helpful at shutting down HE, Zephyr, & PPA spam that chased away so many players in its earlier years. . Infact I think there was even another game before this one that they could have looked to for guidance on exactly that! ...It's amazing to think we went this many years without them ever realizing this

    I think "Drone Operator" is a better name.
