Should mechanics be added to the game that promote these playstyles rather than just relegating them to the "metagame" position like they are in similar MMOPVP games?
Were you satisfied with PS1 mechanics that allowed you to gather intel?
Personally I believe that scouting in PS1 was the most unrewarded profession there was. You never got any reward personally for providing information to people that could use it, and once you actually got back to the fight it was over.
Espionage is metagame just because the game never caters to such a playstyle. You have to make a new account or alt to be involved. If there were mechanics to promote this playstyle in the game in the first place it would be an accepted and respectable role to their communities.
