Well unless he was soloing yes he would have teamates. But the point I've been trying to get across is that the Infiltrator should basically be the boss killer, the single target nuke, but be poor against waves of enemys that can overwhelm him.
Infiltrator should be whatever you spec it to be. whether that is nuking with a shotgun or a sniper or using tac cloaks dmg bonus to empty a hurricane clip or a few shots from a falcon and grenades to clear a room.
That choice should always remain with the player.
Well in that case remove the class system. The player already has a choice, the choice of which class to play. If I want to use shotguns in close range devestation, I use the Vanguard. If I want to do something the Vanguard can't, I change class. You can't have everything in one character, he has to have some kind of fallacy.
too bad thats not how the games classes are set up at all which gives your whole argument no merit.
TC cloak gives you a very brief burst of damage and add survivability and utility with the added option of favoring snipers IF YOU WANT TO USE SNIPERS. Other than that its a general damage buff showing that the Infiltrator is a rouge type class made for DPS and UTILITY.
+ this isnt or ME2 what bonus is their for using a shotgun with a vanguard? do they have shotgun specific perks? wheres that law? Thats what you want to do....not what i want to do, and the number of shotgun infiltrators is is a testament to that.
+ Infiltrators don't have everything in one character, they just have 2 very useful things in one character one of which is multifacited and the other has become a beacon for cry babies because of a single gun.
Theres no longer any rule that says what class should use what weapon, now its down to what weapons compliment the classes powers and playstyle.
Almost every RPG has at least two ways to spec a class and both ways are usually different but hold the heart of the class....the infiltrator is DPS, both ways i stated are DPS.
Your just trying to use exaggerationg to fluff up your post, spec'd infiltrators for DPS in different ways doesnt even suggest that classes should be invalid.
