China Rips Off Team Fortress 2

[ReaperGrimm]

Hell looks fun, I'd play it.

 

[Hamish Durie]

gotta give it to the chinese if they want to do/make something nothing will stop them
and yes he does look like hitler

 

[Nouw]

Heh I'd even call it a parody.

 

[Zhukov]

For some reason I just can't get angry about this.

Actually, it's sorta cute.

 

[Slanzinger]

Seeing that other video... Ellen Mclain's voice in there makes it definite theft, no question of it.
The team-pose in the background is a little suspicious too.
Would quite like to hear Gabe's take on this to be honest.

 

[MattyDienhoff]

Hahaha that's awesome.
They don't even care to replace the announcer:
They just don't. Care.

That's not even a knock-off, it's mutilated TF2!

 

[Wireframefool]

Eh, I was walking in here ready to say "Well every game that's quirky or has classes isn't TF2" but this is tf2, this isn't even trying to NOT rip it off. But y'know, if I could try it, I would. For the fun of it.

 

[odBilal]

You think thats bad?
Look at this

They "rip Off" a whole village

 

[pyrosaw]

China reskins a game and sells it to the public as a completely different game?*le gasp*

 

[Sulgoth]

What we all have to remember here is that China doesn't give a damn either way, they say they crack down on IP infringement but they don't because if its being made in thier country they're not losing money due to imports.

I think VALVe should rip-off the rip-off and release a fire fighter Soldier skin/hat or something.

Call it "The Rocket" hat.

 

[Pedro The Hutt]

Hahaha that's awesome. They just don't. Care.

Okay, I totally saw a female sniper. Well, that's one thing they've got on Valve I suppose.

Really, Valve just oughta cave and make female models/voice packs for the classes, except the pyro given its androgyny anyway. I would totally play a female engineer that looks and sounds like Jesse from Toy Story.

That originally was the plan but due to time and budget constraints that idea ended up being scrapped.

And apparently those pretty much ~are~ Battlefield Heroes maps, or so friends who've played the game tell me. Oh well, if Valve or EA ever find themselves strapped for cash they'll know where to find some.

 

[Zeema]

OH WELL

Lots of Games Copy each other this is no different

 

[Aeshi]

Somebody needs to make a "TF2 vs this" mod

 

[electronicgoat]

Also, look up 'Brawlbusters.' Why isn't there a thread on that?

 

[headshotcatcher]

OP: They all look like fire fighters....

It seems to be what they were going for, especially with the fire axe


OT: Yeah it's pretty shameless, but it's probably a replacement for TF2 that can't be played there or something, though I'm wondering what it will end up looking like

 

[namewon'tfitin]

They also ripped off Battlefield heroes.
The map is stolen so EA will sue their asses to the moon.

(he may in fact be more honoured than Mao.
Salamm

Well the main reason people find Hitler bad is not because he killed people but because he went after specific groups with ruthless efficiency but that is why people like him less than say Stalin who killed more but they were his own people.

OT: Maybe we will finally get a Meet the Pyro and a Meet the Medic video?

 

[Wintermoot]

they even ripped of the rocket launcher model and SFX!
valve should sue them.

sadly nobody does that.
for some reason China is immune to copyright laws.
