During a recent interview, Dmitry Grigorenko, lead game designer for Saber Interactive,spoke with GameRantabout the changes being made to the PvP mode along with the addition of a fresh co-op operations mode. He said:
I think the biggest difference is the fact that we have six classes now instead of three like in the original. Plus, each class now has its own signature ability. This versatility promotes more teamwork and coordination between players.
Shedding further light on the matter, he went on to say:
With PvP, it is very important to keep it fresh. Replayability comes from the fact that you are playing with and against different humans each time across the three types– Annihilation, Seize Ground, and Capture & Control. But with Operations mode, it’s much more complicated. That’s why we want to ensure to include as many procedural elements as we can.
The addition of 3 more classes is a big leap from the studio as it widens the scope for team play as opposed to the earlier approach of hack-n-slash gameplay that players were used to before. The replayability of the game comes from its ability to stay fresh continuously, and with the addition of a new mode, Operations, Saber Interactive aims to provide players with options.
