I wasn't having much luck finding people to go in on a 4-pack with me and I got impatient so I bought the game. The game seems pretty fun so far, although hopefully the match making will be significantly better on release. You start as lvl 5 if you skip the intro or lvl 5 if you do the intro, and in PvP matches you tend to get into games filled with lvl 20-30s. Some classes it isn't that big of a deal, but Robotics class gets some really powerful turrets and healing deployments that really make it damn near impossible to take a point without really organized teamwork. I tried a pvp match or two with a lvl 5 Robotics and they kinda suck at first, but after 4-5 levels the big guns make them essential.
I'm playing mostly as a Recon atm, I plan on trying out each class to know what I want to focus on later, but since there are only 4 I might level them all eventually. The Recon class has stealth, sniping, and improved melee dmg and speed plus some nice mines. The sniper rifle takes about 3-4 shots to kill a person though and has a 1 sec refire speed so having a stealthing sniper isn't exactly OP.
