Subject: Classes -------------------------------------------
There are 5 classes available to start as in Too Human with more being a possibility for down-loadable content.
These Classes are:
Biomechanic The first of these classes is the Bioengineer which focuses on cybernetics and combat. The Bioengineer acts similarly to a medic repairing damage sustained on the battlefield, while also providing health bonuses for himself and allies, allowing them to fight deep into enemy territory. The Bioengineer prefers to fight with his dual sidearms.
Commando The second class is the Commando who fights using technological gadgetry and uncommon methods of warfare. The Commando focuses on long range combat using rifles although when attacked at short ranges, he is more than proficient at using mines, countermeasures and demolitions. The Commando focuses on harrying tactics, while still remaining a force in his own right due to the fact that when forced into melee combat the Commando will draw his hammer instilling fear in his opponents.
Champion The third class is the Champion, Odin's representative on the battlefield dealing out divine retribution. The Champion is a warrior class focusing on caustic force field and anti-gravity based attacks who also increases the combat effectiveness of his allies. In melee combat, one-handed swords are the Champion's choice.
Defender The fourth class is the Defender, the stereotypical tank. Blessed by Odin and protected by ancient runes the Defender is the core of the Aesir's defensive strategies. Defenders wear heavy armor to absorb damage so that their allies can deal out Odin's retribution. Defenders wade out to battle armed with mighty staffs.
Berserker The final starting class is the Berserker who is the master of close combat, delighting in its fury. The Berserker focuses on all-out offense, ignoring its own defensive needs. Berserkers fight with a twin-blade fighting style and are supported through the spirit of the bear. All Berserkers will willingly charge into battle for the glory of Odin.
Although there is only a limited amount of information about this game available we do have gameplay footage of the berserker class.
As well as being able to choose from these 5 starting classes there is also a skill tree which lets you customize your character to even greater depth, the skill tree formula is similar to that of Diablo II.
It looks like these classes fit the arch-types of mmorpg's which is an element in this game. We have a Healer (Biomechanic) Ranger (Commando) Support (Champion) Tank (Defender) and Damage Dealer (Berserker), however it should be noted that all these classes are described as being very well suited to close combat meaning the Biomechanic can heal or repair but can also get down on the front lines.
