Play Types

Below is some information about the different play types in ShadowOps.

Each play type has it's very own advantages and disadvantages that effect a player during gameplay. When you pick a play type, you should choose wisely, as you cannot change your play type once your account has been created, the only way to change your play type is to delete your account and re-sign up choosing the required play type that you wish to be. A hidden advantage in play-types is that players can not easily see, or guarentee what play type you are, obviously if a player is determined and skilled enough, they will use various legal ways to work out your play type.

Remember though, each player plays the game differently, so you may think that a player is one play type, when it turns out they are actually a different play type, so you can never be certain as to what play type a player really is.
