I'm rather boring. I'll be playing Soldier for my first playthrough, like I always do.

Adept! It's part of my "canon" Shepard! Or, well, I have three files with that character lined up, each with some slight variations. Regardless of which one I chose though, adept it is!

Presuming it's all the same classes (and I don't see why it wouldn't be), I'll be the Vanguard again. I've only ever played as Vanguard and Infiltrator, and I hated the latter.

Let's just hope they make the shotgun bloody useful again, like in the original.

I've always played the Sentinel and I've had no trouble with it either. I don't know why people don't like the class either.

Surprising how many people will go Soldier, I'm not surprised that Infiltrator or Vanguard are high up though.

Well...what do you mean?
Shepard IS a Vanguard. There's no choice, he just is. Unless there's alternate universes and a Shepard of a different class for each. But that's crazy. The REAL shepard is a Vanguard.
Could you elaborate on this - why do you think this? Do you have sources to back up your claim?
My source? It was broadcast on Citadel News Net in a report by Emily Wong. Need the transcript?

Welcome to Citadel News Net. I'm Emily Wong. Commander Shepard is currently facing allegations of endorsement fraud after several Zakera stores released statements by the Spectre saying each is his favorite store on the station. Alliance Ambassador Anderson, when asked if the situation would hamper Shepard's current mission, had this to say: "Shepard has swatted away worse pests than this on the way to real problems. He's a true Alliance Vanguard, and he'll continue to charge forward". Asked if he may be considering joining Shepard's squad in the future, Anderson replied, "I'm too old for that shit".

Yes, I just made up a news post for a game to support what I said. I'm not proud of it, but there it is. No, I was really just joking when I said the real Shepard is a Vanguard. Everyone starts to feel like their version of Shepard is the true one, and even get uncomfortable seeing other people's versions of the character. I kind of hinted at me joking with the whole "alternate universes with Shepards of every class" thing.

if they keep the thermal clip system, probably an adept or a sentinel. if they go back to infinite ammo totally going soldier.

Adept, mostly because that's the class I've carried throughout the series. Then most likely Vanguard for the rush ability.

Whichever one is Biotics/Tech combined.
I've played that through 2, and would like to import my file.
Although, if I find a certain build to be more fun/better I'll just get an import file from somewhere else and use it in my playthrough.
Biotics/Tech is Sentinel.

I will be sticking to sentinel in my playthrough, granted that it doesn't change fundamentally from its ME2 version.

I'm working on having a playthrough ready (ie. imported from ME1 to ME2, then onto ME3) for each class, but the first I'll play is Infiltrator.

In ME 1 and 2 I started out as a vanguard, so maybe I should keep that tradition, but I actually had most fun as an Infiltrator and Adept, but classes changed alot from ME1 to ME2, so maybe they'll change in ME3 too, so i'll make a decision when some of the class walkthroughs will be released

Engineer, as that was my first playthrough Shepard. I made a lot of messy choices, but I will just see what happens.

Vanguard, since that was my first ME1 character. Then, Adept if they don't nerf it like they did in ME2 past the easy difficulty levels. I just finished my Renegade Sentinel playthrough and that was pretty great too.

Infiltrator.

Loved sniping in the second - kind of surprised at how many people play soldier. I found it to be easily the most boring of the classes.

I'll play an infiltrator like I usually do. Sniping things and the skills/abilities that come with the Infiltrator suit both my personality and play style very well.

I've also played the tech one, which was pretty cool, but I had to adapt my play style quite a bit to feel comfortable playing that one.
