Obviously The Rocket isn't a ripoff of The Soldier, it's clearly implied that The Rocket is just what Soldier shoots out of his Rocket Launcher. That's why there are so many The Rockets in his video, it's a representation of all the Rockets he has stored in his back pocket.

Ripoffs of TF2 have always seemed like a strange case to me. On one hand if you like the idea of TF2, but hate how it looks, it's nice to have another option to choose from. But on the other hand, ripoffs usually dont function much differently from TF2 at all. And I've always thought it would be neat if decent looking ripoffs like Final Combat had more of an identity than "Its TF2 but for Chinese people" So I took a decent number of TF2 ripoffs currently available to own, and gave them their own reviews, ranging from "Slightly worse option to playing team fortress" to "Completely copied idea that's not balanced at all and definitely not fun."

That mechanic absolutely has to be in TF2

It was wery buggy and low budget game, but worked in browser of russian social media VK. The game gained popularity among community because of simplicity and overall childish concept of killbox games, and was populated by a catch phrase-forum banner "все в контру" in most cursed 2010s meme style, translating into "hop on contra". Such a gem made me cry.

Final Combat having a dedicated Assault Rifle class might be the only original thing it has over TF2, and the French SF bastard may or may not be origin of my descent into insanity that is assault rifles in tf2. Yeah, he’s French. Another fun fact about Striker: Apparently some time later in FC’s life he got an M32 as an M4 (errorneously named the MK18) alternative, which makes him Final Combat’s equivalent of the Demoman, sorta. Demo’s kit was split between Striker and Rocket, with Striker getting the GL and Rocket getting the Sticky Bomb Launcher in his primary slot. -Blizzard ripped off Soldier 76 from Final Combat’s Striker-

Let me add some things regarding Contra City. TDM, CTF and Control Point werent the only game modes available. It also had its own Zombie infection game mode; One player is selected as a "fat boss zombie" at the beginning, and its job is to infect the living players. All zombies have no abilities, only a basic melee attack and increased health. Plus, a generic "free for all" game mode, as far as i remember. And here's the most interesting thing... The weapons. Apart from the ones shown, there are actually weapons you can buy for in-game cash that replace certain weapons. For example, you can buy a flamethrower to replace the mini gun, you could deadass buy a grim reaper's scythe to replace the bat, etc. It doesn't stop there, however. Certain "expensive" weapons have actual perks that come with them; like bleed, poision, slow down, etc. And as you would expect, there is absolutely NO balance to those whatsoever. Any 13 year old could steal their mommy's credit card and get some perk weapons to just demolish the enemy team. And when i say expensive, i mean it. You either grind for hours on end, or just use your money. A lot of high tier (or in TF2 terms, "tryhards") players have these weapons equipped at all times and usually have the same fricking SWAT cosmetics with either a Joker or a generic mime face paint, and a "V for Vendetta" face mask. Oh, and the game had a MASSIVE cheating problem back in a day. Aim assist, wall hacks, NO CLIP, it was a total mess. The anti-cheat was practically non-existent, since the game ran on Unity. All you could do is take a screenshot or a video, post it to a group's "forum" and pray to whatever deity you believe in that they will read it and ban the player manually. There was no "kick player" system either (it probably still doesn't have one, i last played the game back in a 9th grade.) But yeah, the game is a mess, can't believe it still has servers running.

Was expecting the gameloft tf2 rip off to appear. Imagine if the medic, had a crussadors Crossbow that healed on splash damage. now imagine 2 medics, and 2 heavies walking around being bassically immortal with the only counter being, to do the same

The real reason why Final Combat is lost for good was because of its source was an enigma to crack that even the most devoted hackers gave up on it, not sure if the thread at FacePunch forums got archived.

One of my favorite games with a TF2 reference in it is the Strikeforce Heroes series of flash games, specifically Strike Force Heroes 2. They include a lot of pop culture references from the 2010s, including Heavy's minigun. There's a couple more tf2 references and other pop culture references sprinkled in there, too.

I'm surprised you didn't mention the mobile "ripoff" Blitz Brigade. Personally, I think it's very different from TF2, but I remember seeing a lot of people call it a mobile copycat because it's a class-based FPS and it having a cartoonish art style, which might be kinda similar to TF2, but still really different. Considering how people used to call Overwatch a copy just because it's also a class-based FPS... I guess it makes sense. Still, it was a pretty fun game, unfairly forgotten by both the developers and the community (I don't even know if their servers are still active lol)

i want to show you a really well made tf2 inspired game called blitz brigade made by a now bankrupt company game loft. blitz brigade is a mobile game that i grew up with and the thing that killed it was it's abandonment. (game loft was very well known for abandoning their games soooo) but what made people upset was that they wanted a pc version of this game and never got it. soon after it got swarmed with hackers and bots. now the servers are shut down(i think, cause it wont load any games/maps)this game was extremely fun to play and i wish some devs soon buy it and get it back online

I played Final Combat back in the day, and I remember fake heavy being able to jump while firing, which was basically a huge buff to the class, which was already insanely good due to fake soldiers not being able to rocket jump, as well as the absence of both demomen and spies. If you're going to rip off a game, why not go all in and also rip off the game's balance..? Also, if you typed any variation of the name "Team Fortress 2" in chat, it would show up as censored in chat, like "*****". How subtle of them.

Final Combat _did_ have demomen in the form of Strikers sacrificing their assault rifle for a grenade launcher but I don’t think any overseas version of the game ever got it before shutting down in 2015 (for international versions, the chinese version shut down in 2018)

The thing i appreciate about Typical Colours is that it actually does a good job at recreating the game in Roblox, which is great because the game itself takes next to no storage space to play online and doesnt has low res graphics I could play Typical Colours on a really old and bad work computer when I couldn't play TF2 because I'm not even sure my computer had a Graphics card (Atleast, not one made in this millenium)

Final combat making the healer a cutesy anime girl was always a given, when medic is clearly superior because *men.* One thing I noticed, ripoffs try so hard with their cosmetics in particular for whatever reason. You can really appriciate the simplicity of tf2's customization from that.
