Is Evolve a Boring Game?

"There’s a thick cloud of controversy above Evolve’s head, full of whispers that the game is either boring or lacks substance. We’ve heard them, over and over, but are they really true? "

I'm so glad I will pass on this game.

FullmetalRoyale4049d ago

I think, if you had a group of friends playing together it would be a great time. I just don't find that to be a practical requirement for purchasing a game. I also think it wouldn't have legs, even if I had a dedicated group to play it with.

As it stands, my friend and I have been tearing through Dying Light coop, and having a blast.

Evolve is just not for me.

Spinal4049d ago

Playing Dying Light with a friend. It is just a FANTASTIC game.

breakpad4049d ago (Edited 4049d ago )

yes it is a bit ,...and considering the ridiculous DLC prices which accompany it(basically selling one game in many very expensive parts) ..they show no respect to the consumer and we see price cuts very soon

bmf73644049d ago

The game seems to be in grievously against the monster-players. Every video I see of this game, the hunters always win.

XanderZane4048d ago

I have it preordered, but I'll probably pass on it. I have no idea if my friends are even getting this game or not. I'd be better off saving my money for Bloodborne or just getting Dying Light at this point. If they release a Evolve Definitive Edition with all the DLC included, maybe I'll get it then. I still have tons of other games to play and finish as well, so I won't be bored waiting for more games to come out.

I'd say yes and no. From the BIG Alpha to the Open Beta, the game feels the same everytime. After a few games I'm pretty bored.

If you and 3 other friends plan to play this game together, should be fun...

If you plan to play this with strangers, don't.

ScorpiusX4049d ago

I played the beta , was different and can become boring but I learned that switching out teams makes it real fun. JMO

Grave4049d ago

The beta was boring after 5 matches of the same exact thing. I am hopeful that this game will offer more than what I've seen. It's gone from a "day 1 buy" to "meh" pretty quickly for me.

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.

jznrpg224d ago

Didn’t bother with the first one.

TheColbertinator224d ago

All I wanted was Left 4 Dead 3 instead

Abnor_Mal224d 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.

MeteorPanda224d ago

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

The_Blue224d 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."

MIDGETonSTILTS171313d ago

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

Germaximus1313d 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.

LordoftheCritics1313d ago

I used to play this a bit.

Was kinda fun.
