To Spy or not to Spy

[Anonymous]

Hmm...how many of you are considering being a Spy when MxO is released? Ive done a tiny bit of deciding between the two, Spy or Hacker...Soldier really wasnt something I thought of, because I would like to have a certain purpose other than being a tank lol. And with either Spy or Hacker, I can mix a lil bit of fighting skills in. So what Im askin is, can someone detail a little bit on their preferences between Spies and Hackers, and why they think so. What makes it interesting to you? And what is your goal when we are jacked in??

Tanking is always fun, but then I love being sneeky (Go Thief Deadly Shadows) So I will be a Spy/Soldier but mostly Spy.  I wanna do this Spec ops thing we talked about ages ago.

I like the idea of just getting out and fighting, so im definitely gonna be a solider. But then again the idea of a hacker seems cool, so im probably gonna have a little bit of hacker ability. I'm not too crazy about being a spy though

I think I am still sold on Soldier.  I just wanna kick ass.  Although the cool sneek attacks from the spys are cool!

So far im going for spy, fill me in with this Spec Ops??

If the spy doesn't match up to what I was looking for then i'm going to be security

But are sneak attack skills going to be usable on other players, or just npc's? I only like interacting with real players.

That is a question I hope Stratics will ask the devs for me.

depends what type of spy you'll be. but we'll see. as for me i plan to be a hacker, understanding that hacker will be the "building" class, ive always been good at it and will continue to aid my clan. i hope everyone in this clan will follow my example, we dont want any mishaps..

I rather like being a solider. You can do alot of the many missions that need to be done. Besides, if you need spy abilities or hacker ones you can get them from the people with those abilities in your group. I plan on being a soldier and having to a lesser degree some of the other spy/hacker abilities. I'm planning on anti-viral sweep from hacker and disguise from spy. Other then that nothing else is needed atleast to me.

I'm going to go with Spy on my character.  I decided this for the same reason why I like our clan so much, the element of mystery and surprise.  It's somewhat cool to just go in and kick someone's ass, but IMO, there's nothing like the feeling that you give your enemy when they have that split second to realize that you've just sneaked up and are about to kill them or hurt them real bad, and there's nothing they can do about it.

Yeah and who doesn't love stabbing people in the back

I know I'm going soldier all the way with other abilities mixed in that will be helpful to me and others around me. I've played an online game where I was either in the background killing when I was in a group or when I soloed I was the group. For those who have any knowledge of EQ you'll understand that I'm talking about. Playing probably that most powerful class in the game as your first choice kind of destroys a game quickly.

*Spy performs sneak attack on soldier, sits back and laughs*  *Soldier gets up* "That sorta hurt! Nice Try." *Soldier commences to kick spy's ass*
