Ok, I have this mod completely planned out, and I think its original enough. I decided to combine TFC with Megaman. alot of people have already said that its a bitchin idea and they would love to play when it comes out, sadly none of then know anything about modding at all. I am in the process of learning C++ out of a book, and believe me, it's not easy. I already know how to make maps, although im not very good at it. Honestly if one of you want this idea, then you can go ahead and make it, just give me a position in testing it. I just think that it's too good an idea just to go to waste.

There are 2 play modes: Team deathmatch & CTDC (capture the data chip)
In Team deathmatch, it's just like normal tfc where teams battle it out.

But in CTDC , It's like CTF except that when you grab the data chip, it slowly corrupts your data (slowly kills you), but you have stronger weapons. You must return the data chip to a console (capture point) and then upload it to the system. it takes about 10- 15 seconds to upload completely, making it more challenging to complete, but during this time it can be interrupted by you dieing.
Ok now for the classes:

Keep in mind all classes will have a mini boomer (grenade) and a regular shot. (damage will depend on class)
Health, armor, speed, and damage is listed next to name in the form: (starting health/armor) (max health/armor) (Speed: very fast, fast, normal, slow, crawl) (damage: very high, high, medium, mild, low)

Engineers:
Ice Man:
(90/25) (175/125) (normal) (medium)
Uses ice to make walls (damageable and slowly deteriorates(melts))
Can also make ice turrets (shoots ice shards, upgradeable to ice cannon, then ice tower)
Has a freezing attack that slows enemies while dealing mild damage (kinda like flame thrower except with freezeing).
Has ice grenade (does a stun with slowing effect)
Can grant ice armor (raises allies max armor by 20 and gives some defense Vs. water)

Medic:
Bio Man:
(100/50) (185/150) (fast) (low)
Can heal with a ranged attack for low healing or can heal for alot with a close attack (will only heal allies)
Has the ability to heal self over time.
Can set disease traps (enemy steps in and gets diseased for moderate disease)
Has disease grenade (like trap but less damage in grenade form but like grenade affects that area)
Can create a bio chamber (gives disease protection to allies, takes all but 1% of your total life, if at 100 left with 1 but below 100 and you're dead)
Can grant vitalization (raises allies max health by 50)

Pyro:
Heat Man:
(100/50) (185/150) (normal) (high)
Has a flame thrower attack (does damage Just like the normal pyros flame thrower)
Has a flame rocket attack (just like normal tfc)
Has flame grenade (Makes an area of flame that ignites anyone in that area)
Has flame sword (deadly close range weapon)
Has heat vision (can see body heat of allies and enemies but not through walls)
Can heat the air around an ally making them lighter (increased jumping height & defense against ice)

Heavy Weapons Guy:
Damage Man:
(100/150) (200/250) (slow) (very high)
Has rapid shot (Mega man version of assault cannon, slows down Damage man to a crawl)
Has spread shot (shoots about 8 shots in a wide range in front)
Has bullet grenade (Makes an explosion of bullets that shoot out a large distance)
Can charge up allies weapons (add 20% to max ammo and damage (allies only not self))
Can boost the power of all turrets (adds an additional 25% damage)

Spy:
Chamelion Man:
(90/25) (175/125) (fast) (mild)
Has sticky shot (tranquiliser gun from tfc but a little faster)
Has deadly blow (1 hit kill but must be invisible and behind target)
Can blend in with their background for a short amount of time (partial invisibility for about 30 to 45 seconds)
Can climb walls (but not while invis. and cant attack while on wall)
Can take on appearance of enemies.
Can play dead (feign death)

Scout:
Aqua Man:
(75/25) (160/125) (very fast) (low)
Has hydro gun (Basically the nail gun)
Has hydro grenade (restricts enemies movement by emitting water)
Has hydro slide (makes hydro man move faster by creating water in front, which he slides on)
Can grant allies hydro armor (grants 25 armor, defense Vs. fire, and increases swimming speed)
Can change from solid to liquid for 15-20 seconds( immune to all attacks but ice, and cannot capture any chips or damage enemies, but still mobile)

Soldier:
Rocket Man:
(100/100) (185/200) (normal) (medium)
Has Rocket shot (Rocket launcher)
Has Rocket Grenade (grenade that when it lands, eplodes to about 6 minirockets that spread out a short distance)
Has Rocket pack (kinda like a jet pack, it absorbs ammo when in use)
Can attach a rocket to a wall to act as turret (only has 10 shots per rocket attached but only takes 8 ammo)
Can grant jet pack to ally (can grant only 1 at a time and lasts about 2 1/2 minutes)

Sniper:
Energy Man:
(80/0) (165/100) (normal) (high)
Has conscentrated energy shot (zoomed sniper shot)
Has energy shot (regular sniper shot (no zoom))
Has energy wave (enemies around him become stunned)

Can turn to energy giving all members of his team increased damage (has to die to do it but all allies recieve a 75% damage boost for 1 minute)
Can grant a temporary energy scope to all allies weapons (must use all but 1 health, lasts 1 minute)

Demoman:
Grenade man:
(90/50) (175/150) (slow-normal) (very high)
Has grenade gun (grenade launcher in tfc)
Has timed grenade gun (pipebomb launcher in tfc)
Has detonation gel (like c4, but can be placed from a distance, placeable on
enemies backs so they take it with them unknowingly, activate by remote, defuseable by allies of affected)
Has nova grenade (only have 1 per spawn, kills all enemies within a 5 meter range, and moderately damages from 6-10 meters)
Can grant suicide armor (placeable on only 1 ally at a time, if ally dies, suicide pack goes off dealing moderate damage to enemies, gives 25 armor)
Can refill all allies grenades (does not affect self or other grenade men)

Thats basically it, I had alot more ideas, but i figured that this would already take a long enough time as it is. seeing as I would like to see this come out before Half-life 3

Haha, it's not like "omg lets remake megaman X!", we need more TFC variants anyway, Wizard Wars isn't enough.

Hmm, I'm torn. There's a lack of originality, but it could be quite fun if done right.

maybe i should add all my ideas, hehe then it might have its originality. only problem is that it would be very complicated. what i tried to do with this was to give tfc a twist but to do it with a new idea. nobody suggested megaman for tfc :P and i guess you are right when you say its not a combine, its a remake, onlything is that there is no tfc version for HL2, so making this would be in a way combining. still it just sounds so fun to me. also if you look closely, i tried to level it out a little bit more by making resistances to certain classes, and making certain classes contribute more instead of being all solo no team effort. But through all thats said and done, I still hope that somebody decides to make this, even if they change alot of stuff.

Last year I used to think Capcom Fortress would be a good idea.

Scout - Super Joe (Bionic Commando) - Grapple claw instead of jump. Can tap communications.
Spy - Codename Viper - No footsteps, and can jump high.
Pyro - Firebrand / Red Arremer - Fly, latch onto walls.
Soldier - Megaman - Can use special weapon of a victim.
Hwguy - Ryu (Street Fighter) - HADOOOOKEN!
Demoman -
Sniper -
Engineer - Dr. Light or Right - Builds crap.
Medic -

Can't remember what I had for the other three.

Demoman - Leo

Just my opinion, really. :)

Sounds like a good idea, though. I'd play it. I love me a Megaman game.

hehe thanks guys, sadly i only have a VERY rough idea of how to make mods, and im not going to ask for help on this because i know nobody will do it (i basically would need a whole team and it says not to ask for that so im not). I'm in college right now (20 years old) for networking specialist, kinda makes me wish i had went in for programming instead.

Or even just having all the Street Fighter 2 characters as classes. That'd be awesome.

I know i said that this was a free idea, but i think i will have a crew to make this in no time. alot of the people said they would love to help if they knew how to make mods, and i found an online guide about how to code C++. and im currently looking for one to make models, so this may actually go underway soon.

why not just play Fortress Forever when that comes out (i forget the website, or i'd link to it), which is a recreation of TFC on Source. Then when it's out, make model replacements of the characters you want, and then maps as well, if the current maps don't suit the style you want.

Since it sounds like you don't have much modding skill at the moment, at least not enough to undertake a mod like this on your own, this could be a better way to go about it.
