Could there perhaps be something along the lines of "medium assault" that we don't know about yet? No jetpack, more armour than LA but less than rexo. :P

Highly doubt it, we saw the class list in the GDC video: Light assault, heavy assault, engineer, medic, infiltrator and MAX.

That said, I spotted that in the GDC video, Higbys engineer had the thigh armor plates I'm referring to, while his LA/medic didn't. So there's a chance they are for engineer only, but I'm not sure how would that make sense, so I suppose it's just his engineers customization.

Now that you mention it (how could i have forgot that list xD). Sidegrades perhaps? A more heavier armoured combat engineer sounds tasty

Just a heads up, I think I edited my post while you were typing a reply about the thigh armor :P

Is it just me, or does the helmet/visor need some work? Looks like the NC raided a test facility and grabbed up all the blast visor helmets and then issued them to all the poor smuck's who were last in line that day.

I've voiced my "concern" over those and so have many other people a few times now.

But yes, do need a bit more work. Either make them less "black hole" black or add some frames to them and/or also make em a bit less bulky. They also feel like a bit too close to the face.

Luckily, we obviously arnt forced to only that visor:

Your wait is over!

Looking nice though - as others have said, I like the destinction of classes in the design.

Interestingly, we haven't seen and female models in gane to date yet...
