Tabula Rasa Interview

Killer Betties has published a lengthy interview with the development team behind the upcoming sci-fi MMORPG Tabula Rasa.
Q: Could you explain how players go about determining their class and what types of classes there are?

A: That is correct. TR uses an inverse tree leveling system. Periodically as players level up they will reach a branch point. Players are able to view the entire tree at any time to help them determine which specialties they want to '˜branch' into. Each branch builds on the previous, so players who move to the '˜soldier' branch retain all their weapons and ability skills from their previous recruit level.

Classes range from basic recruit to highly specialized classes such as Spy, Medic, Engineer and Grenadier.
