Evolve is a jetpack dance between prey and predator. It’s a multiplayer tango with ever-shifting positions: in a typical round, you go from being a frag god to fragile and back again in the span of about 12 minutes. One moment you’re a firebreathing Goliath, rolling a strike through Evolve’s four Hunters with an enormous boulder, and the next, you’re a fleeing, bloodied heap, scraping the map for alien wildlife to chew to regain lost armor.
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.
I don't get why this game is getting high review scores.
The game is fun and hard. Your team must know how to play or else you will fall to the monster.
Matchmaking is the worst in this game, it doesn't take into account player level at all it just randomly places you with anybody. If a high level player is playing monster you might as well quit and try to find a new game as they can almost one shot kill you. Same goes for if you are playing monster, if the hunters are high level you got no chance.
If you played the beta you know what you are getting with this game, especially since accessing the other game modes seems to be almost mission impossible as the game picks randomly for you, 9.5 out of ten times it's that same hunt mode.
