Just a suggestion though, can the next class update come with another? I realise that there is probably some money incentive or something for HiRez and I totally support that. But I was enjoying Infiltrator a lot when the patch came and suddenly for a week there were 8 infiltrators per team and honestly there still are too many. I get that eventually after all the classes have had all their weapons introduced things will be in a "balanced state" but it's a bit annoying till we get there. Just implementing one class at a time does suck the fun out if it. Ironically I've been enjoying a raider a lot recently and now I don't especially want loads of raiders per game. If you introduce two classes at once, like one opposite sides of the spectrum (Tech and Brute or something) then at least the "wow new stuff" will be split down the middle and games might be a bit more normal and fun.

When you have a look at the raider class now, compared to the soldier class, it seems that there is not much reason left to play soldier, because the raiders guns and shield packs are simply better. If this trend continues, that instead of balancing existing issues (and there are a lot), new broken features are added, fans and players will eventually get pissed and that could spell doom for the game. I would have rather payed 30 to 60 euro for this game with more or less content and balancing patches, but when I look at the pricing scheme the idea of Hi-Rez seems to surface, that more than 100€-200€ or hardcore grinding are needed to get anywhere in this game. Don't get me wrong, I like this game and enjoy playing it, but I think that this approach of releasing and pricing content will eventually lead to its downfall, because most new players will simply be not willing to spend so much money or time on a title they just got into.

I am sure the new stuff is awesome, but it makes it so hard to be optimistic when all you want is such a tiny easy feature and yet it never comes...
