>Evolve gets lauded as a meme for it's "DLC Scheme" and supposed DAY ONE DLC (which there was none)

Did I just fall into another dimension or something?
Ubisoft gives the DLC content free unlike the rest
>Evolve came out two years ago
Feels like yesterday
I know your pain.
Ubisoft is like steam in that it shits money and can probably afford to do so.
2k However is another story, being a greedy cunt and buying out TRS and Evolve just so they could drive it into the ground. They have the money, they just want to fuck everyone over even more, for even more money.
It's why Gearbox took a nosedive once they got bought out.
Because evolve could of been good but 2k killed it and people who bought it are still pissed off.
Only played Evolve when it was free to play but it was one of the better multiplayer games ive played
Too bad 2k killed it
you don't know what lauded means
The F2P version is a fucking joke; stripping out most of the heart and soul of the game because people kept calling it a running sim and refused to learn to play.
It did, however, add a couple of good things, but what the fuck were they thinking when they overhauled the gameplay and stripped out all of the modes?!
We're on Sup Forums. It hardly matters.
I honestly enjoyed Evolve. Playing as Caira was the most fun I've had as a healer in a long time. Also Griffin with his harpoon was pretty fun.
Because it was a shit game.
Evolved is boring as fuck.
I liked hyde's getup, Lazarus was dickish fun, and the majority of the trappers were pretty neat; although I mostly used abe/crow for that one. Cabot was pretty neat.
Kraken was really good, but then Behemoth came and I didn't look back very often.
They don't make them like they used to; and when they do, usually people like 2k ruin it.
I think Evolve would of been better if most of Metamorphasis wasn't removed from it.
I thought it was alright, but "fps raid encounter" is a hard niche
This is terrible bait

>mfw tromping through the jungle burning everything that moved
My god it was like playing Evolve; it aint me edition as that motherfucker.
>"I'm going to burn the fucking monster's fucking face with my fucking flamethrower"
>most of the cast were going to turn into monsters/monster hybrids
What the hell, man? Why did it have to happen this way? We could have been blessed with something truly amazing (which it was, but really short lived). Half of the variants sounded really great too.
Evolve's primary game mode felt like a secondary/"fun" game mode as part of a better MP game
Only fun I had was when I played the kid with the green repulsor beam. It was fun cucking the monster from eating my medic.
OP is a faggot, but he's somewhat right.
EVOLVE got fucking bashed by everyone 2 years ago while now those same people are probably playing Dead By Deadlight or some other shit like that.
You speaking of Evac?
Agreed, however. While TRS was a little on the molasses side (arena is hardly a new gamemode); they also didn't need 2k shooting them in the balls.
Monster versus Monster and a variety of other gamemodes should have came a lot faster; Shit, I practically BEGGED them to put in the UT/2k4 "Assault" gamemode.
Wasn't it because it was pretty expensive and the DLC content could have been part of the base game?
The developers fell for the "no PvE content" meme like many others.
Seriously, do people think about this when making a game? It's why evolve and titanfall died the second the next game of that year dropped. Meanwhile, people still play Left 4 Dead for the PvE.
It makes me sad because even in current year people haven't figured this out so stuff like Dead by Daylight is dead. Thankfully the Friday the 13th game had enough brains to delay the launch to make a campaign which means that the game will still be able to be played in the future once the playerbase declines.
Hold on for a moment there, son
I liked Evolve. I can say I was an Evolve fan, but it was not just skins but actual content on an already content lacking game
Behemoth was DLC and had to be paid, so it was the batch of Hunters. Then Behemoth was nerfed into uselessness, fucking up people who paid for it and people who didn't.
The DLC content was skins; and the majority of the DLC content that wasn't, was in development after the game had already went gold/finalized.
The DLC content that "could of been part of the base game" couldn't, because it literally didn't even exist outside of a base couple of rough sketches that didn't even have a name; Shit, the PLAYERBASE named Behemoth
They should of launched with Mod Support too.
>content lacking
Why does everybody keep saying this? Each of the monsters and hunters in different combinations required differing strategies on differing modes. I don't understand how that's a lack of content.
Too bad they hold the optimization, patches for the broken gameplay, and servers hostage.
To be fair, Evolve had a TON of day 1 DLC. They also had a DLC package called "season pass" that literally wasn't a season pass (you could see how people could get pissed at that one).
Awesome game fucked up by greedy incompetence from the higher ups. The lore is incredible, the animations and characters are awesome and the concept is pretty neat.
But only 2 fucking new Monsters and they were paid DLC? who the fuck thinks this is a good thing?
Then It's free and that's cool and all until you realize it's a butchered version of the game YOU PAID FOR and that content is gone. Gone forever. Deleted and never coming back.
TRS might not be as bad of a bunch as they seem, but someone there really fucked everything up.
Evolve was a great game that managed to convert a very RPG-like party format into fully realtime action-based FPS combat, but it should have cost $30-$40 for the base game plus all the first season pass DLC. Instead they tried to milk it to a ridiculous degree without even offering some kind of bullshit in-game currency that you can use to purchase the extra characters. Even shit like For Honor had the decency to do that.
I honestly feel bad for the devs of this game. It obviously started as a labor of love, but it got devoured and shat out by the publisher's greed.
You can still play the original under the betas tab in steam if you bought it.
Shut the fuck up, you dumb fucking nigger. Evolve was fucking cancer, I played it for 2 hours when it went F2P and I still felt jipped. Go fuck yourself, faggot.
Now how do i know you are underage?
Nintendo DLC for the most part is some of the best today. Mario Kart 8 doubled their entire track count for like $12 and aside from amiibo the Smash DLC is top tier, not to mention how Splatoon's DLC probably quadrupled the game's content and was constantly updated each week for a solid year. Oh yeah and that was free.
Evolve's DLC is just not up to par as many of it are just cosmetics for like 2 bucks or things behind a paywall.
>used to watch TRS streaming matches/new hunters and monsters and get hyped for how fun it looked
>ruined by a shitty business model and a publisher that sucks literal ass
I wonder what happened to those two faggots they had commentating.
This isn't a MOBA or Siege, my man, there's not much change of strategy and pace involved
Also 3 Monsters only is abysmal. Goliath is a tutorial character, basic and bland. Kraken was OP as fuck and had to be changed to prevent people from flying forever till T3 and killing the Hunters, same as Wraith.
And Wraith was the most fun of them all; low HP high damage with sneakiness, but proved OP too in many occasions and others just plain annoying to fight, like Kraken was.
OK then, now imagine that the game came to a balanced state between Monster vs Hunters, which took a long time to find the sweet spot for these two; You're still fighting the same monsters over and over. The pattern doesn't change at all and there's little variation to what the Monster can do against good Hunters.
If only it had more monsters and more depth to each match to throw off balance the meta but OH IT'S PAID CONTENT.
Nah, Evolve tried to jew people out of their money by calling it the "Hunting Season Pass". It's really fucking easy to assume that it's a season pass like with other games, but nope, not this time. It's not a Hunting SEASON PASS, it's a HUNTING SEASON Pass.
That's just fucked up right there. Call it what it is, don't trick people into buying shit.
MK8 DLC extended the track count by 50% (16 stock + 8 DLC), not double. Though it's still nice value.
Smash DLC wasn't too bad but it didn't come cheap.
When it was announced I got hyped because I could finally play the game I loved again with new people
And then realize maps have been reduced (which is a good/bad thing) and the very very interesting AI that acted like fauna around was butchered too to be just mob pockets for you to kill and feed. Some Apex Predators were removed from the game entirely. Bushes where you could hide and sneak past the Hunters were removed. The beautiful Hyde's Flamethrower effect was converted into a .gif.
>It's to get a greater audience to play it so their toasters can run them
>But still we're not adding new Monsters, just reskins and less meta game in a stale meta game.
>MK8 DLC extended the track count by 50% (16 stock + 8 DLC), not double.
Oh shit my bad.

Part of that literally just boils down to "Git gud faggot"
Nobody in their right mind can; or does, defend that. What in the fuck? It wasn't even called "hunting season pass" at the time, it was literally "Season Pass 2", Hunting was added later on down the line as a pathetic attempt by 2k on damage control; on damage THEY caused.
>all of this
SWEET FUCKING JESUS
This is why 2k is a cancer killing games. Bordermemes probably wouldn't of been such a problem if Gearbox just stayed the fuck away from them.
It failed because of this shit.
Seven of those things are basically irrelevant anyways.
>tfw headshotting Krakens big stupid head with the Rail Cannon over and over
Shame it was the same shit game after game, got old fast.
>Part of that literally just boils down to "Git gud faggot"
Agree, PART of it, but not all of it.
There are so many whiny players on both sides that didn't even bother to know the meta and call unbalanced to the most asinine stupid shit.
>Waaah lvl1 Wraith killed us landing! why didn't she run? So OP
>Waaah the Assault won't fall down he just keeps getting shielded and healed by Hank and Caira what do?
But THEN there's legitimate unbalanced combos
>Behemoth can't escape the Abe and Val slow combo
>Can't reach them, can't run away, can't pounce them, he's just become a lava piñata
Or Lazarus being annoying as fuck. Not extremely OP but too annoying to be dealt with or think you're having fun when you're not.
>Punching monsters with Lennox for damage stacks until you deal 4x
Such a shame because I could launch it and look for players since it's free and all now.
I mean, it's a good game after all...
Yeah. I get the unbalanced combos, but the balance babies were the real grating on the nerves.
WAS a good game. Stage 2 made it free; but otherwise butchered the gameplay even more.
