They include the basic biotic powers like pull and shockwave and their special ability (all classes have different special abilities) is charge where you can perform a powerful charge towards the enemy. They can use submachine guns, heavy pistols and heavy weapons (by default, all classes can use em')and i think shotguns. Later in the game...

[spoiler] ...you can learn to specialize in a new weapon, i.e., assault rifles or sniper rifles. [/spoiler]

Soldier is the sort of "default" class, but it is still the best... They can use all weapons apart from SMGs... They get all types of upgraded ammo (apart from Warp which you get after beating the game and getting the ally achievement related to it, which I think is Jack)... They get adrenaline rush which allows them to slow down time, allowing them to hit a target with several burst in the time they would normally only get 1 burst...

Pretty good starter class since you will rely more on guns and cover than tech/biotic abilities... Those are better for a second run through, which I recomend a Vanguard for...

Vanguard was my first class when I played the game, and that was a lot of fun, but I'm also having fun with the infiltrator

vanguard isn't that good believe me, in harder difficulties you only use their class skill to suicide. Sentinel is amazing for denfense power, you can try engineer, its amazing.

Infiltrator and Soldier are best for higher difficulties. Infiltrator's my personal favorite for ME2 because it's mainly a mix of sniping and tech powers.

I myself am not one to mess with biotic powers or tech... I enjoy playing Mass Effect 2 as a shooter, so the Soldier class is my favorite.

Thanks for the advice, I think I'll go for the Infiltrator class. It seems the coolest and best.

Vanguard is commonly accepted as the best class for Normal and Casual difficulty. Sentinel is best for higher up difficulties, either way, if you ever do higher difficulties, get Heavy Geth Shield Boost as your bonus power.

Soldier or Sentinel or infiltrator. in higher difficulties the vanguard is useless, the adept's biotics are nerfed to hell since they don't effect enemies with protection(90% of their total health), and the engineer is imo the most underpowered. Soldiers do the most damage, sentinels are like tanks and have biotic and tech powers, and the infiltrator is a sniper with camo.

Obviously it is a ninja link to his blog that no one reads...
