I need to join up still 

Quick q, I was on the 1st mission after the intro mission, playing solo, but about 5 minutes in, after I killed a wave, I see another player running around, then what looks like him activating the same wave I just killed. So I get attacked again, help him out, and its fun.
So it's all good, but, is that how it's meant to work? Waves respawning as other players join to play the same mission? It seemed like we joined at different times so weren't synced up on waves of enemies... can imagine it being a bit painful later on in the game when you could die quickly, last thing you need is a mob respawn!
AFAIK, the waves just keep respawning endlessly, as you often see a drop ship appear above and drop off a new wave. Quite handy for grinding kills/XP.
I did not get much of a chance on the beta , so what class is recommended?
Once I have chosen is there no going back.
cheers
Played an hour this morning. Very impressed, tight gameplay. I never got round to the Beta but glad I got it.

So although there is a campaign in game and you have the choice to play solo, I take it that the world will always have other players in your game as well and have a choice to help them out?
How does it determine which other players are in your game at the same time?
I think there are 3 character slots, so you can have all 3 classes and level each one up as you please.
Not sure exactly how it chooses who you see, but yes there are always randomers about. I'd imagine once you have joined a clan, or added people to your fireteam, they will appear (or you can join their session/vice versa)
Prordered from Tesco, no dispatch, no destiny![]()
Should be here in the next few hours from DPD. They have a really silly tracker on their website that allows you to see where your driver is, how many deliveries he has made and where you are in the queue.
Now I can't resist checking up on him. He comes close... then he moves away a bit again. Torture.
My Tesco one just turned up with headset and a t-shirt I was not expecting....
