Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Online is an upcoming multiplayer free-to-play class based third person shooter for the PC and Wii U. It is being developed by Ubisoft Singapore, and is currently in Closed Beta.
Classes are the main stay of the game. They each have their own weaknesses and strengths, specific weaponry, and specialized abilities. It is essential for a team to have a diverse class setup in order to win. The only three things the classes have in common is that they all have secondary pistols, grenades, and unique abilities. Note, the player selects their class before going into a match, once in a match the player is stuck to this class for the entirety of. The only thing/things the player can change in match are their weapons and abilities.AssaultAssault class is medium built and they exhibit the best of the other classes, Recon and Specialist. There main role is to fight, be in the thick of things. Assaults choice of weapons include Assault Rifles and Shotguns. The abilities available for the class are Blitz and HEAT. Blitz allows the player to rush an opponent with a shield and knock him down. HEAT causes a microwave affect which stuns the enemy and if in very low health will kill the opponent. ReconRecon class is light fast and nimble. Their main role is to provide sniper support or infiltration capabilities. Recons have access to Sniper Rifles and Sub-machine Guns (SMG). The abilities available for the class is Cloak and Oracle. Cloak, should be shelf explanatory, it renders the player invisible to some extent for some period of time. Oracle, is a sonar like technology that detects the enemy and highlights them for you and your teammates. SpecialistSpecialist are the heavy and sorta slow. Their main role is support. Specialist have access to Light Machine Guns (LMG) and Shotguns. The abilities available to this class are Blackout and Aegis. Blackout is an area of effect EMP discharge that stuns your opponents and fries their abilities. Aegis is a force-field that is generated in a bubble format and deflects both bullets and grenades. The bubble is big enough to encapsulate several teammates as well as the specialist that generated it.
