Just a little random question for everyone.  Which class(es) do you use the most or only use?

As for me, I like them all, but I've always loved Q2 deathmatch.  I played it all the time when Q2 was in its prime.  I'm also a huge Doom fanatic. So Doom and Strogg are on top of my list.  Pretty good with them.

Earth and Arena are fun to use at times as well and I can get a few frags using them.  

I completely suck with Slipgate.  I do love Q1, but I never was good at it for some reason haha.  But I know the power it holds hehe.  I just can't harness it well.

Anyways, so yeah.  How about y'all?

 

It really depends on the map. On iksdm3, I prefer Arena/Strogg over all others. On Eternal Arenas, Doom all the way. On Deva Station, I like to play Earth. Any map which has lotsa jump pads & ramps, I have the most fun with Slipgate =]

I'd say my favorite to play is Doom because he can be a little reckless and it'll help him =]

DOOOOOM ! I love me chainsaw.

Weird,  I thought most ppl would use one of the characters that sport a railgun or earth model that has a sniper.  I like the game for the nostalgia it brings, I really could care less wether win or loose, just try to do the best I can with either Doom or slipgate.

I use Slipgate and Earth only... wait, that's a lie, I do use Gladiator once in an extremely rare while.

I'm the best with Slipgate on every map, and also have the most fun with that class... but Earth has gatling guns, a mortar, and a napalm launcher... I can't help but use that class once in a while.

why does this topic even excist? like you didnt know everybody was a bunch of slipgate whores.

doom - strogg - slipgate - earth - arena

in that order, slippy comes out faster depending on the number of slippy-whores

Definitely the Doom Marine.

Perhaps the best reason (for me) to use Doom is cause of the nostalgia factor...I still play Doom religiously, and as a result I feel right at home with the weapons and his physics (even his jumping feels like it WOULD feel if you could jump in Doom...good job on that).  The SSG is still just as satisfying as it was in Doom 2, and the Plasma Rifle is still brilliant.  I can sometimes kick serious ass with Doom.  I don't stand a chance against Slipgaters, though, even though Doom is by far the best class I've got.

After that, Strogg.  The weapon diversity of Quake 2 is one of the reasons why it was so cool.  This amazing weaponry really makes Strogg stand out in Generations, from the pinpoint, nearly one-hit-kill Railgun to the constant hail of lead from the flesh-shredding Chaingun.  His strafe jumping also helps a lot, and he seems to be able to take more of a beating than the other classes.

Earth is alright...I like that class...just a bit too slow for me, though.

Slipgate I suck with.

And Gladiator I never play as, cause I feel that playing as a standard Q3 character is not the reason Gen was created.

Me Strogg. Ugh.

Seriously, the amount of slippyness in the gen player community annoys me - I'm sure the air-control & only having two weapons that account for anything has it's nostalgia-value, but it's never struck me as the kind of thing you'd want to restrict yourself to. Oh well, I usually just play on random, so it pops by every now and then ;]
