The classes are blatantly ripped off of TF2. It doesn't bother me too much, the thing that does is that they're charging money for things ripped off of a free game. Honestly I wouldn't mind if there was something else to it, but there really isn't. It's just a generic shooter with TF2 classes.
@RavingKunaiX I'm tired of hearing about how team fortress is FREE and how it has Already HAD these classes, fact of the matter is team fortress just took the most efficient and reasonable classes and through them together. Would you prefer a slow, well armored, medic instead? that doesn't sound terrible until you realize medics are rare and needed everywhere. A cloaking assult? sounds wonderful until you realize that when everyone picks it and kills everyone. It's like patenting the word "and"
HL2 mod Empires is like this, Operation flash points 1 CTI (Capture the island) is like this, Savage 1-2 and so on. The list of games closer to ND than TF2 is huge. The comparison to TF2 is as close as it is to Doom 3. Having turrets in a game dosent equal TF2 rip off.
You're deviating from the subject. I just said I don't like how the classes were so similar, and I never said the game isn't a TF2 ripoff, just the classes.
@legolasisahobbo The classes described have very similar equipment and functions to those in TF2. That's a very good thing, though, and such similarities are probably pretty hard to avoid in class-based multiplayer.
imo this can become one of the most player online shooter.. dunno... liked it

LoL, yeah, because in TF2 you build bases and research tech and advance up in areas where your commander is telling you too...
This game is closer to Quake Wars than TF2, but that is maybe before your gaming time.

You can't deny they took a lot of this from TF2. Plus I've played tons of Quake.
