Evolve delayed - should we be worried?

Dealspwn writes: "2K claims that the game will benefit from four months of extra polish, citing an "overwhelmingly positive response from press and fans," but should we be worried that the asymmetrical multiplayer experience isn't shaping up properly at this late stage?"

I personally think delays are a good thing!

showtimefolks4329d ago

delays are good majority of the times, GTA5 was delayed, the last of us was delayed, and we all know they turned out great

q1-q2 2015 will be packed

witcher 3
the order 1886
evolve
battlefield hardline
bloodbrone(supposedly q2 2015, i am sure we will find out more at gamescom/tgs)

It's because of the consumer base. It's why every game that is next Gen only has been delayed. The consoles sold isn't enough to maximize profit. Why not wait til Xmas and tax season hit and then release it?

I'm more worried about second rate journalists creating these constant 'should we be worried' articles instead of reporting real news

equal_youth4330d ago

thats the problem though i have missed when game journalism turned into this sh*t

lifesanrpg4329d ago

It's important to realize that not every site posting on N4G should be considered "journalistic"

2014 is the year of delays.

Not a bad thing though.

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.

Didn’t bother with the first one.

TheColbertinator327d ago

All I wanted was Left 4 Dead 3 instead

Abnor_Mal327d 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.

MeteorPanda327d ago

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

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

Germaximus1416d 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.

LordoftheCritics1416d ago

I used to play this a bit.

Was kinda fun.
