The next update will include additional class customization and a better user interface that will show off some of the sci-fi graphics and high resolution. Hi-Rez will be dropping the total number of classes from 12 to 9, but adding the ability for players to unlock new weapons for each class and further customize what they use. Three of the nine classes will be available right away so anyone new will have access to a Light, Medium, and Heavy class right off the bat.
Press release from Hi-Rez states:
“We feel very good about the fast and fluid combat we’ve been playing and refining with the community over the past few months,” explains Todd Harris, Hi-Rez Studios Chief Operating Officer. “We are now excited to announce new features that have been among those most requested by our Beta group.”
