Evolve thread

I really like the game. I was a bit sketchy about the longevity during the alpha and beta tests, but when GMG did the VIP deal I bought the PC Monster Race edition for £44.25.
 
So far so good. Yeah it might lack a little in longevity but I think I'll go longer than I did on Titanfall as the teamplay and variety seam better.

I know I come across like I'm defending the game from criticism but that's not what I'm trying to portray... I'm not telling people to ignore the problems I'm simply stating that it's actually a really good game, one I have no mates on PC playing yet even online in pub matches it's a blast.

Thanks for the feedback eekfek, you're literally one of the only chaps actually explaining the game rather than the useless "I'm not enjoying it" posts with no explanation.
 
I'm actually getting tempted to buy this, my mates won't buy this as they have concerns regarding playability and to be fair I don't blame them and completely understand where they're coming from. I also don't like the dlc direction they're going in either so I won't get it full price but when the sales start I'm in!
 
In multiplayer, the only option that shows is 'Hunt' but you can join other modes randomly. I think it was mentioned somewhere that the actual options for specific maps/modes had not been implemented yet. You have to (apparently) open multiplayer set-up any map, mode and custom settings then invite friends or start the map and it will add random players. I don't know for sure, I'll see if I can find the information or post about it.
 
Still waiting for a patch so I can play the ****ing thing! (ultra widescreen user here). I wouldn't be so bitter but Turtle Rock assured gamers it would be fixed for release as it was an issue that has been reported since the alpha.
Bloody clowns!
:(

So about a week after release.. whats the verdict? yay or nay? people still playing it?

I've put 12 hours into it this week (about 2 hours a night which is all I get to play games really). I played quite a lot of the Beta as well.

I still can't get enough of it. I've played a lot of that time in single player - trying out new modes, maps and monsters etc. I think when playing as the monster the AI is quite good and make a decent game of it. Obviously it's not quite the same as playing humans, but it's pretty good. I haven't played as a Hunter against the AI though.

Online i have a 50-50 split between monsters and hunters. Played mainly as Support so still have to play with the majority of other Hunters and start levelling them up. As the monster I have just unlocked the Wraith, but really enjoying playing as Kraken. Went 3-1 last night with it.

I personally think there is a lot of game here.
 
I have spent just over 7 hours playing the game, which I am enjoying. I played the campaign for the first time last night and ended up playing it 4 times in the end. It's nice being able to vote on what you want to do in the next round. It's also great as you don't have to worry about being picked as the monster, as it's always an AI monster. :)

TotalBiscuits Evolve vid. A fair assessment of the games problems and merits and also tackles the DLC non-problem.

By non-problem i presume you mean people getting upset by 2ks lack of clarity in purchasing options ie. not wanting consumers to know that all the day one content is unlockable, as well as, purchasable.

I don't know if you have watched the whole video he does also address plans to release the monsters at a ludicrous price in what is already a $60 game. A game I might add that is mostly online in nature. This is most definitely a problem and TB states it as such.

Has the cost of Monsters DLC been announced yet?

During the preorder as part of one of the purchase options, it lists the RRP of one of the monsters. They have since removed that RRP. iirc its around $15 dollars, if you google around you will see that figure. The hunters are going to be 7.50.

Can anyone tell me if the hunters will be unlockable or purchasable only?

I suspect that RRP of the first monster was inflated to get more people to pre-order, especially if they've now removed it. $15 (~£10) would be expensive - I would be happier paying £5 per hunter\monster.
 
Does anyone else struggle with VRAM on this?

It runs fine using Medium textures (around 2.5gb usage)

Soon as I try High it maxes out at 4GB. God knows what Very High uses!

@1080p btw.

Crazy!

This game is getting so much stick, shame really as I kinda like it. Steam reviews are a ragefest, pretty much all negative.
