which class is alot of fun to play as i want a class where every fight isn't the same making it feel like i have to think alot during the fight and also i want to use Cyro type of attacks im not a big fan of sentinel so i didn't list him in here but those other three do i'llbe playing on the hardest difficulty so i need help on which i should play 

Bonus Question

i know i remember it but its been so long since i played but when making a character in mass effect one which one is the straight normal looking nose lol odd asking that but i remember all the nose's were kinda odd looking and all i want is a normal looking nose but mass effect 1 doesn't look at the side of your character's face too well so its hard to tell which one is straight when picking a nose lol

Are you playing ME1 or 2 here? You mention cryo attacks which sound like ME2 since it's an ammunition in 1, but then ask about ME1 noses. If this is a two game playthrough then you need to think about how those classes play differently in the two games, e.g. I found ME1 Vanguard and Infiltrator a bit meh but in ME2 both were heaps of fun, mainly because of their class biotic charge and tactical cloak abilities made them more different than soldier with some biotics and without some weapons training etc.

I like all the classes so I will be of no help. I will say that in ME1 the class don't feel as different as they do in ME2, mainly due to how they were re-engineered.

In ME1 I would tend to prefer the Infiltrator over the other two, but in ME2 I like all the classes nearly equally with Soldier being my favorite.

One thing to keep in mind is many consider Engineer to be the most difficult to play well in ME1, and not all that much easier in ME2. Vanguard has a steeper learning curve in ME2, but once you get it then it is very powerful.

I'm a fan of the vanguard. I used to play the infiltrator but came to love throw and lift - biotic powers are fun. Adepts are actually pretty fun too. Infiltrators are more combat oriented I felt. I played an infiltrator for a while, too. Never played an engineer except in ME3 MP. Nothing about that one interests me. I'm not a soldier type either. So I guess it depends on what kind of play you want. Do a search on Mass effect classes and wiki has a list of them and what you get for powers for each character. For ME2 vanguards get cryo and incinerate. I prefer incinerate after using it because it's a great effect and I think it's funny when they scream.

Never drone spammed Harbinger with an Engineer Shepard with Tali and Legion in the team? Okay, childish of me but it was still fun.

You say you don't like sentinels, but I have very much enjoyed my sentinel with sniper rifles (had that weapon unlocked because I completed an infiltrator playthrough, so I don't know if you have that option available in ME1). And sentinels have cryo in ME2... Besides that, infiltrator is my favorite. I really enjoyed sniping. Vanguard is pretty different and it's easy to get yourself killed if you charge to a group of enemies.

I just finished a playthrough on ME (1) with an engineer and it was much more fun than i thought it would be! I always looked at the class as kind of boring but with Wrex and Garrus we were a killing machine. Geth were simply destroyed without mercy! AI hacking was fun as hell too! And so many explosions lol

At ME2 i have to strongly recommend the Vanguard! One of the most exciting, adrenalin filled gameplay experiences ever!

alright all of these ideas sound very fun so now im stuck between these two Vanguard and Infiltrator Vanguard sounds fun cause of the charge skill when i start playing ME2 and 3 but infiltrator sounds as well being a combat sniper moving forward with only a sniper and pistol sounds very fun as well

I meant which were you playing at the time you asked, but I can see now that you're on ME1 at the moment. Another point to consider in your decision making process - you can change the class when you import your ME1 saved character into ME2. Want to play ME1 as an Infiltrator and 2 as a Vanguard? No problem. Trouble is the ME2 Vanguard and Infiltrator are both good to play so the best sugestion I can offer is to play both and flip a coin to choose which one to do first.

The immediate opposite of fun would be the Sentinel. It is easily the most boring, easiest class to use on Insanity because of how OP Tech Armor is. I prefer Infiltrators/Vanguards. For my Infiltrator I focus on using Cloak as much as possible to get the damage bonus+the upgrades throughout the game and my Mantis does impeccable damage. However, later in the game, ignoring base damage per shot, the Viper is immensely useful because of being Rapid fire and spamming it against Harbinger and Scions make it very easy. I recently imported a playthrough in which I already used the AR proficiency, so when I get to the Collector Base the first time, I will upgrade my shotgun to the Claymore. (Right now using GPS).

Rifle: Mattock
Shotgun: GPS/Claymore
Heavy Weapon: Cain
Heavy Pistol: Carnifex
SMG: Tempest

Favourite weapon loadout so far.

I take it that this is a modded playthrough since by default you cannot use both Assault Rifles and Shotguns (and the Claymore is unavailable) on the Infiltrator in Mass Effect 2.

Yeah that makes no sense.  An Infiltrator that took AR's in the first game wouldnt' have shotguns.  And there is no sniper rifle listed at all.

Ok I see.

You won't get a choice for more weapon training on the Disabled Collector Cruiser in any NG+ though.
