The way i understand it is that it starts with your race choice, E.G. Alteravers are the heavy gung-ho type while alternix are the stalker types, from there i assume you can shape your charcter however you want (it is an MMO after all).

Hoping the game lives up to it's fast paced combat UT/Quake style it will be almost impossible trying to heal someone when fighting is going on. I think the different "roles" will be player made and not already set up by the devs. By this I mean it will probably be like who ever learns how to use the rocket launcher or something will play his role as a support guy, etc etc. And it wont be like there are a bunch of different classes to choose from and you pick what you want to be.

Dogg, i can't give you an offical answer cause i'm not as well versed as some of the guys, but i'd be more than wiling to bet my alienware + 200USD that there will be support classes in a quazi typical mmo sense.

You will not find Classes of any sort like you do in WoW or EQ or DAoC. AS you acquire levels by getting XP by Questing and engaging in PvE, you acquire the ability to choose differeing "Licenses". These Licenses will specify things like "Heavy Weapons Specialist", "Medic" or "Engineer". This will be one way that you can develop your character. Now whether or not Webzen has licenses titled "Heavy Weapons Specialist", "Medic" or "Engineer" I do not know, just like everyone else frequenting this website. Those are merely examples. I would love to see a list of Huxley Licenses and a description of what each License does for you in order to plan your License choices prior to the game.

So the quick answer is yes, there will be people in support roles in Huxley.

From what i have seen so far, Huxley has taken some of the Aspects of Planetside with the licenses, to where no matter what you currently specialize in at the time, you can change what you want to be later on as stated above..... then again its not 100% for sure on that, we just dont have much info to go on.
