HELP US STOP THIS SHAMELESS STEALING.

That really just looked like a new TF2 MOD, eh? BUT.. NO! It's another Korean game that requires real cash to buy things!

I mean, they are trying to MAKE MONEY OUT FROM this TF2 Copy-cat!

http://www.petitiononline.com/tf2lover/petition.html...

If you want to help us; Sign the petition first, then tell people about this shameless ripoff game.
Oh and don't forget about sending Emails to Valve :D

A horrible TF2 knock-off. I know everyone rips each other off nowadays, but this is JUST so blatant.

I hope Valve does something about this. Also, it's called "Have Online". Really, can they come up with a better name?

P.S. I signed the petition as well.

People are talking about this already. Wow. It's also going to be "free", using the usual scheme of micropayment on gear (real life money on gear)

OMG! That is almost the same thing just with different people. We must stop this madness!?!?!?!
 
Honestly, not much of a case, since the soldier/heavy/sniper formula is common in battle games. This game seems to also have its share of original content.

I like the trailer for it, but if they charge cash for items, that's pretty lame.

Also, online petitions are worthless.

Also also, TF2 didn't invent the graphic style they use.

Plus, anime characters fighting it to the death like that? I'd buy it.

Hmm... it seems to have its own differences. But real money for a game like that is a no-go.

Yes, I know but they basically stole scenes from Meet the Scout, Demo, and sniper. Also, they're charging cash for items. Also, I found a korean forum that has a thread with comparison pictures.

The girls are hot. That ends the matter for me. I cannot accuse a game with cute girls like that of being evil.
 
It looks too crappy to compare to TF2.

Goddamn Koreans and their shameless mooching. Sometimes I feel ashamed to be Korean.
 
looks intersting. but calling it a complete rip-off is a bit much since you have to achieve your items by finding them during the match :o
 
Well I can't really choose a side on this. Even though it has the same "classes" with the same scenes from the trailers it still seems to play very differently. I don't see any control points or intelligence and it is third person. There is also a trampoline and very wide open maps reminiscent of toyfort. Maybe calling it a tf2 rip off isn't out the question but petitioning it seems a bit much. Just don't buy the game.
 
i dont know what to say i wouldnt buy it but its like tf2 so yeah cant argue with that i like tf2
 
Ummm - I can see the resemblance for sure. I don't think there'd be much of a case to stop it though, especially if its coming out of Korea. I think it has enough difference to make it a non-factor. Looks kinda crappy though.
 
Saw it earlier today and welcome to the world of video games. Stuff like this has been going on since the days of Pong.

Hey, we don't need any of that around here, even if you are Korean.
 
Imitation is the best form of flattery - or something like that. No one should care, Valve should feel proud that even Koreans like their game enough for a knock-off.
 
If you're going to get mad at this game and call it a copy, then let's look back in time and use your formula:

Every RTS is a copy of of Command & Conquer/Warcraft
Every MMO is a copy of Ultima Online/Everquest
Every Space Flight Sim is a copy of Wing Commander
Every Traditional RPG is a copy of Final Fantasy
Every side-scroller is a copy of Super Mario Bros.

I could go on but I think you get the point. We all know these examples aren't really the case. Even with the similarities certain games share there's still something about them that set 'em apart.


I'd let it slide. ;)
 
I'll buy it simply because Haruhi is the scout....

Anyway, I'll work on a translation for that korean page.
