Why Single-Player Gamers Should Consider Evolve

GI

Evolve's 4v1 multiplayer is a concept that's resonated with gamers through successful public alpha and beta periods prior to its release on February 10. The game's multiplayer credentials, however, have not been created at the expense of those who want to play it solo. Evolve has effectively little design difference between single- and multiplayer, as well as gameplay and structural details that single-player fans should be comfortable with even while in multiplayer. If you weren't going to play Evolve because you thought it was aimed solely at multiplayer fans, you should reconsider.

Evolve really had my interest at the beginning and i was even more interested knowing there you can play offline but after i knew their dlc, the game interest went down to zero. Supporting a game that half of it is sold as dlc is not in my interest at all.

Honestly, i don't see how this will atract single-player gamers, Evolve looks like a great cooperative experience, playing alone it's not appealing at all for this game.

It attracted me the moment they offered the offfline play. As a singleplayer with slow internet at home or zero internet where I worked/stay for most of the week, an offline mode for any game is more than appreciated.

Plus, an offline mode is great for practice or keep my skills up when I'm not playing the online sessions for some time. I had to find empty servers late at night to practice flying helicopters in the Battlefield games and suddenly having others joining in will certainly ruin the practice.

So no single player story campaign? It's just matches with bots doing same thing over and over? I'm really bummed about this, didnt really realize it was going to be that kind of game.

So this is basically a multi style type game like quake? Destiny seemed alright for a single player experience somewhat. I really wanted this game to focus on single player story!

why the hell would single player based gamers consider this? You get half a game at full price. dlc for the other half that's not even remotly close to what single player based games can offer.

If you like big monsters go play monster hunter, it comes on 3ds on valentines day cause cap com loves you so much.

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.

TheColbertinator266d ago

All I wanted was Left 4 Dead 3 instead

Abnor_Mal266d 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.

MeteorPanda266d 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: 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

Germaximus1355d 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.

LordoftheCritics1355d ago

I used to play this a bit.

Was kinda fun.
