Twinfinite: Evolve's official delay until 2015 may be disappointing for many, but there are certainly good reasons behind the delay that make a lot of sense once considered.
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.
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.
if lm not mistaken it started the asymmetrical pvp matches. Evolves logo was a nod to their concept.
Back in 2016, Turtle Rock announced that support for its 4v1 monster-hunting shooter Evolve would end but fans wouldn't let it die.
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."
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.
ummmmm the article claims that Destiny, Halo collection, and Assassin's Creed are somehow "more fierce" competition than The Order 1866, The Witcher, and Batman. I have to disagree. As big as Destiny is, i don't see the fall line up to be "more fierce" at all.
I do agree however, that when a game is not complete, they should delay it so that they would deliver the best possible product. I have no problem with that.
PS: i wish it had made "perfect sense" when The Order 1866 was pushed back to February. I distinctly remember some people banging a different drum. wonder why.
I don't think this is good for the game at all. It had good momentum and a fall release would have been ideal due to the relative lack of AAA titles available for ps4/xbox one at the moment. A delay til 2015 slows the momentum it had built at E3 and puts it up against the onslaught of other games set to release in 2015, with games like The Witcher 3 and The Order:1886 scheduled to release in February 2015.
WHAT WHAT WHAT?!? This is the first I'm hearing of this.
This was delayed too? Geeez!
THIS YEAR WILL KNOWN AS THE YEAR OF THE DELAYS.
