I always loved playing either anti-vehicle or engineer classes, so my favorites would have to be PIC Sydney/Raveshaw and Hotwire/Technician. The former because they excel at shoot-and-cover tactics even against vehicles which typically make mincemeat of infantry; as awesome as LCGs and VARs are they require constant exposure to return fire in order to actually do appreciable damage, while PIC/Railgun doesn't. The latter because of pure utility- like Spoony said, there just isn't another class as useful as they are. Engineers, lower or upper tier, are the lifeblood of a successful team- and I've happily ridden them to third, second, or even MVP quite a good number of times.
I've got a soft spot for TAR Sydney, also- I don't know whether it's my love for playing the underdog or just that my aim sucks badly enough that I need the splash damage (sometimes I do), but I enjoy using her for base defense and skirmishing. The TAR is pretty handy for clearing SBH hiding spots so that the wrench-monkeys can get in and disarm nasty things, and sometimes the damage-over-time effect of the Tiberium can make people itchy about getting to cover when they'd otherwise be blowing your head off.

There are no black guys. If you mean the gunner, the gunner is middle eastern.
|
I'm pretty sure Gunner is black, or at least he's supposed to be. Hotwire is already the token middle-eastern character.

Gunner is black, if you listen to his voice in the mission maps it is a black mans voice.

Havoc is American and Sakura is from Transylvania (just as Yuri).

Oh...I thought she was from eastern Europe due to her heavy accented English. And that makes sense too, the MOSSAD (and the Israelis) are always blowing up shit and plant bombs lmfaooo

Hottie is Asian.
I like Havoc/Sak as they have n00bjets. great for taking out infantry in a single shot. They can also do fairly decent damage to mrls/atrys.
I also use Deadeye and the BHSniper to hone my sniping skills.
|
Gunner is also Black.
And Hotwire is NOT Asian.

I have never seen an Asian who belongs to MOSSAD.

The character you will see me as the most is a deadeye/black hand sniper
If I need to clear out the tunnels I will be a chaingunner.
I am rarely a havoc/sakura unless I have to take out artys/mrls or orca/apache

Shotgunner, Chemtrooper, and Grenadier simply because most people don't know how to dodge against their attacks and the fact they are cheap as chips.
Plus Chem-guns destroy the MCT faster than any other weapon in Renegade (other than c4 and beacons)
Who here thinks shot-gunning in first-person is easier? Of course when you are not in combat you stay in 3rd person.
