Trooper first, Agent next. Thanks for the write-up; now I'm sure the Agent will be my first alt. I want a mmorpg where people have gone through misery, have gone through school stuff and actually have had sex even. -sagil |

Wow, those spoilers were something, I just took the fool out immediately for delaying my progress. The Agent story is great fun, now to just get back to playing the game next weekend :) |

Agent was my final alt... I wish I'd mained him. DEFINITELY going to be maining him on release. MMO's played: Ragnarok Online (For years), WoW (for a few weeks only), Guild Wars, Lineage 2, Eve, Allods, Shattered Galaxy, 9 Dragons, City of Heroes, City of Villains, Star Trek Online (Got someone ELSE to pay for it), Champions Online (Someone else paid), Dofus, Dragonica, LOTRO, DDO and more... A LOT more. I've played good AND bad. The bad didn't last long. :P |

The IA has without a single doubt the best storyline in the entire game. Even if you dont like to play ranged DPS toons aka paper cannons you should give the IA a try based on the storyline alone. That is how good the storyline is for this class. |

Wot, a whole article and no Kaliyo?! I am disappointed, she's a real love or hate companion, and I adored her. Stopped playing my IA at level 25 last build to keep it for launch (I keep rolling IAs and making myself stop playing them), as aSpartan said above, the storyline completely rocks. But it's also worth mentioning that you can muck about in your skill trees and be less squishy up close as an operative, with a lot of rogue-like abilities: stealth, grenade, stabbity, shoot, stabbity moar - tons of fun! |

If I play the game...this class would be my main character. I played till level 11 and stopped. The class and I just click.
(I say if..... because 24/7 persistent faction conflict is why I would play...and I haven't gotten enough information on that subject yet) |

IA is awesome. The best mechanics out there. Boy did I have fun in pvp with mine.

Was a little disappointed with this write up probably the weakest of the class previews, guessing the author was desperately trying to avoid spoilers and went the other way making it quite an ambigous preview. Greatness is difficult to appreciate from close up. The great mountain on the horizon is only the ground when you are standing on it. |

I didn't get flagged for beta until Monday. It was a huge download. The article was due Thursday. I have a day job where I usually work 8 - 6. It was a completely new build and new class for me, and servers went down Thursday morning. Soo... partly trying to avoid spoilers, partly - I just did not have much time with the game before I had to write it.

The imperial agent storyline was pretty good. Definitely, the class is looking like my first alt. |
