Just because it's a class-based system does not make it a Team Fortress clone.

AFAIK, Team Fortress was the first FPS to have actual classes. Now TF:WFC isn't an FPS, but 3rd person shooters are kinda the same breed, as most 1st person shooters can be played in 3rd person as well. So, no, i'm not saying it is a clone, but it is using an already proven system for its multiplayer.

Its not a bad thing. I think its pretty awesome. And mostly all games out now a days is a clone or uses 75% of whats already done by other games anyhow in terms of gameplay. The wrong idea here is thinking TF:WF is unoriginal. It is its own game by far. All i'm saying is that it borrows well known game elements from other games. Once again, not a bad thing. There are lots of high selling games out there that do the same thing.

Either way, i just freakin excited and i can't wait to play it. lol

You're never wrong, so to speak, everyone can have there opinion. I just did not see them as Power Rangers so much...Just another kind of superhero/powered up person.

The lack of individual vehicles that combine to form a robot, and mindless bad guy minions that all look the same, swayed my opinion.
