Meet The Goliath – Evolve

Gameinformer :

"A monster movie is only as good as the monster, and that’s often the case with games. In Turtle Rock Studios’ upcoming shooter Evolve, up to four players battle against a powerful player-controlled beast on an alien planet. The company has unveiled the first such creature, the hulking creature known as the Goliath. Read on to learn more about him and some of the behind-the-scenes stories behind his creation."

I loved L4D so I have full faith in this team and this game.

Such a great premise and I hope it works. This and Alien: Isolation seem to be taking a different route with the standard gameplay. Instead of big huge players and more MORE gunplay, we have devs going for smaller more intimate game experiences.

Yes, next gen looks to be going well so far.

I see photoshopped sprites for the flame.

just pointing that out.

Notice the blur masked area along the whole spout of the flame.

looks good though

TheRedButterfly4487d ago

Really looking forward to this! By the time that L4D came out, I was just so done with zombies… But sci-fi? Yeah, I'm all about it! Gonna be a blast when it releases.

FlyingFoxy4487d ago

Left 4 Dead 2 is a great game, though personally i am more looking forward to Left 4 Dead 3 over this game..

I was interested until i learned that it's a 1 v 5 game.. odd to say the least.

Lon3wolf4487d ago

Depends how its balanced, I will be keeping an eye on this.

kaiserfranz4487d ago

That's part of its charm, it's doing something radically different for sure.

inmusicutrust4487d ago

Its 1 huge powerful monster(after it goes through several evolutions at least, until then the beast os better off avoiding combat) against 4 hunters with unique powers and abilities that need to work together to take down a greater foe. Its co-op boss battles but the boss is human and unpredictable. Whats not to like?!

wsoutlaw874487d ago

i actually really like the idea of a 1 v 5. A lot of people have been wanting battles vs mosters and stuff that arent just even teams shooting eachother and dead space tried it, and it was cool at first but very unbalanced. 1 v 5 is a cool way of taking care of that.

Report: Evolve 2 Was Once in Development, Concept Art Reveals Scrapped Sequel

It has been recently revealed by an artist that a sequel to the 2015 title Evolve was in the works. However, this project wouldn't last long.

jznrpg277d ago

Didn’t bother with the first one.

TheColbertinator277d ago

All I wanted was Left 4 Dead 3 instead

Abnor_Mal277d ago

Was this game ahead of its time? A few years later games like Dead By Daylight, Friday the 13th and other asymmetrical games exploded onto the scene.

MeteorPanda277d ago

if lm not mistaken it started the asymmetrical pvp matches. Evolves logo was a nod to their concept.

The_Blue277d ago

They should have because I played the first one when it was already dead

Evolve or Die: The final days of the follow-up to Left 4 Dead

Back in 2016, Turtle Rock announced that support for its 4v1 monster-hunting shooter Evolve would end but fans wouldn't let it die.

‘Evolve: Stage 2’ is back from the dead as peer-to-peer servers come back online

From NME: "Evolve: Stage 2 had its multiplayer servers shut down back in 2018, but today players are once again able to matchmake and join peer-to-peer multiplayer games.

Several months ago, peer-to-peer functionality was lost for Evolve Legacy, which was the only way fans of the series could play with friends. Upon a multitude of players reaching out to publisher 2K, the issue was eventually fixed earlier in July. It seems 2K have gone a step further now, and reinstated peer-to-peer and matchmaking functionality for Evolve: Stage 2 after four years."

^^this, I have so many awesome skins on Xbox that I’d rather not lose

Germaximus1366d ago

Yes so far because it's just the servers alone coming on and the console version never had the free-to-play update.

I imagine if they find people playing the PC version and enough players are enjoying it then they'd probably reconsider opening console as well but I wouldn't count on it.

The game was epic as a monster. Hunters were really boring to play as to me.

LordoftheCritics1366d ago

I used to play this a bit.

Was kinda fun.
