Yeah, from everything I've seen there is no lore.  I mean, yeah there is, but no one cares.  The focus has been on gameplay, not on story.

I'm assuming that the main purpose of the lore is to add a bit of flavor to the trash talk.

Exactly. It's the exact same thing as in Tribes: Ascend. Nobody gives a crap about the tribes, their only purpose is to enable the players to refer to the opposing team with derogatory nicknames like "sand rakers" and "butchers".

So wait, are we going to be Vanu or NC? I'd prefer the latter. In any case, anti-air/anti-infantry heavy weapons man reporting in.

Russia is simply taking an anti-Fascist stance against European Nazi products, they should be applauded. ¡No parmesan!

Vanu won the vote, NC apparently won the max-whatsit aesthetics contest, leading the threadmaker to unilaterally decide NC for the second poll thing. No love for the ninjacrab.

I'd prefer NC as well. Vanu always felt a bit elven to me. Maybe have them as an alternative outfit in case the NC start outnumbering the others too much.

For the role, I'd prefer to wait until the game comes out to decide.

Changed thread title, separated engineer and driver in poll and added infiltrator as a choice.

In Sweden, digital electronics is considered unteachable. That is why you are not being taught about it.
Most attempts of sesquipedalian loquaciousness on the internet will most likely end up in egregious delusions of eloquence. Finagle's law commands it!

As you will be limited to joining one faction per server, but with multiple servers, I'd suggest we pick one server for each faction.

Same here. I'll probably pick either heavy weapons or infiltrator.

I'd be tempted to say I'll go with the infiltrator and deck myself out as a sniper. Since there is a headshot mechanic I might be able to do very well, if of course the hit detection is at least as good as TF2's.
(And many people think TF2's is bad, I do fine with it even if it frustrates me on occasion)

I'll play scout.
Always loved fast/ambush classes.
You can count on me.

EDIT:

I'm just hoping like hell that microtransactions wont be game-breaking/P2W, but more like those in tf2.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

Eh. Sounds like my main system won't cut it, but the family computer might. I dunno what I'll play, I'd have to try things first. Maybe a pilot/driver, maybe a MAX, I dunno.
