They didn't learn any lesson aside from "don't take any risks or do anything fun, original, fresh, or intresting"
They learned to monetize EVEN HARDER.
Congradulations, retard. You bought into their plan, plain and simple.
Evolve did nothing wrong.
Proof: HL3 never existed, and certainly won't now because of this.
>They learned to monetize EVEN HARDER.
lol nah, people voted with their wallets and the game ate shit as a result
Evolve blew dicks and got stale really quickly
Deal with it
What about the new dota2 card game?
Isnt it the hl3 you expected?
>he thinks voting with his wallet does anything but kill franchises
L M A O
pffkek
they chose their fate when they decided to lock 3/4s of their content behind dlc paywall
This is a lie.
Cosmetic aren't content
that's the idea you silly willy
Good games should sell, bad games should eat shit. Evolve ate shit, so it worked
I played the beta, I liked it so I bought the game, enjoyed it for a bunch of months and then moved on to other games.
Big fucking deal.
all of the scrapped monsters are better than the ones in the game
Evolve ate shit because of the mongoloid masses who listened to the disinformation campaign. It's hard to develop anything when you have no money to do so.
Evolve failed twice because it just wasn't very good. Great, interesting concept with great sound & art design, but the game itself is shallow and repetitive, especially if you aren't playing monster.
...
It looks like you only played during F2P. I'm sorry you had to see the butchery of what was once a glorious legacy.
jack, lennox, Torvald, Sunny, kala, slim, crow...
those arent cosmetics, user
>pick goliath
>absolutely crush the hunter team because i have ridiculously high damaging burst
goliath was the best monster for the entire game if you knew how to throw rocks
although every monster could be cheesed by going up and down cliffs
also emet best medic solely becuase of his voice lines
meant to reply to oh, and add E.M.E.T. to that list
Bought 30 copies of this shit for dirt cheap because of steam pricing error. Sold all of it for double to triple.Played the game, it' shit and I got bored adter playing it for a day.
I don't give a shit that it died, but thanks for the money though.
>jack
useless shit char
>lennox
extremely op until they nerfed lance, then useless shit char
>torvald
useless shit char
>sunny
pretty good
>kala
useless shit char
>slim
pretty good until they nerfed him, then useless shit char
>crow
useless shit char
i swear the devs had hardons for claire and hank, those were the only two medic/supports that were good for the entire duration of the game
Blame 2K for that one
For the last fucking time
IT NEEDED A 4V4 VERSUS MODE
Sorry man, I ignored Evolve for microtransations, nothing about the game itself.
All of which did not require one to purchase. There were countless, intentional, BUILT-IN and WELL KNOWN ways to play them without buying them.
Played both, the only truly gamechanging thing about F2P was that the hide-and-go-seek aspect was all but removed.
i never claimed they did require purchasing, user. do not confuse me with the other guy
So protest the core game whilst chewing them out for their business practice. You can have your cake and eat around the bad spots too.
how pathetic can you be.

evolve launched with $100+ of dlc
>Game has deepest lore and neat designs for both monsters and hunters
>shit the bed in gameplay
Gorgon was cancer and 1v4 is a meme
>giving them money
Naw
I can tell you're full of shit. They removed all of the actual quantifiable team-play; stripped the tactical and strategic depth, and even neutered the visuals and animations whilst stripping out all the modes and maps.
>protest by giving them $60
>LAUNCHED with 100$ of dlc
No it didn't. Those didn't come out until several months after the fact.
Season pass 2 is unforgivable though
Mind mentioning the specifics instead of being intentionally vague just so you can shitpost more? Evolve was never deep.
>tactical and strategic depth
Was never there to begin with.
Evolve was a neat idea that was fucking boring as hell to play. "Okay, lets chase the monster for 30 minutes until it gets strong enough to wipe us immediately."
not that guy but c'mon, you just need to take a look at the trapper role to realize how much they dumbed down team play and coordination when it went F2P
F2P Evolve was a spit in the face to anyone who actually liked the game
Yeah, fucking sure.
The handholding compass making HUNTING a thing of the past- the entire fucking point of the game.
The all-class Dome making Tracker/Trapper pointless
Positioning no longer mattering
Composition no longer mattering
No longer about who outsmarts who; it's whoever mashes their buttons the most
Butchering of the map to force "flee-til-three"
Unescapable, inaudible dome
Only Hunt, four maps.
They turned it a game of wits into a game of mediocrity.
No wonder it failed
so we are just ignoring the part where you had to buy monsters and hunters that were straight up better than the vanilla ones
I guess we are also ignoring the blantantly overpowered monsters at launch
oh yea lets also ignore the extremely repetitive gameplay of just following monster tracks or daisy
That's one (1) change, which isn't even a good example. The trapper was most interesting as someone who hampers the monster's movement, not because of "lol I press button and dome come down."
how to spot a shitty hunter, the post.
F2P also took out fucking fauna and plant life so the monster cant hid anymore and juke hunters
Why couldnt they have gave us a 4v4 hunter vs monsters mode I mean there were fucking animals all around the map
>so we are just ignoring the part where you had to buy monsters and hunters that were straight up better than the vanilla ones
never happened. most of the non-core hunters and monsters were fucking trash.
>blatantly overpowered monsters at launch
only wraith
>oh yea lets also ignore the extremely repetitive gameplay of just following monster tracks or daisy
learn to play, fucking codbabby
>No it didn't
Yes, it did.
Hey, if you like getting good at bad games, that's up to you.
>never happened
but it did
>only wraith
doesnt mean it didnt happen i had a good amount of friends that stopped playing because of how fucking boring wraith was to play against
>codbabby
not an argument
>14.02.2015
wew lad there are tons of articles documenting the absurd amount of launch DLC the game had
>but it did
literally when
>doesnt mean it didnt happen i had a good amount of friends that stopped playing because of how fucking boring wraith was to play against
not an argument
>not an argument
exactly an argument
Who /hyde/ and /parnell/ here
>the entire fucking point of the game
I bet you thought Witcher 3 had a really fucking deep tracking system. There was nothing interesting about the tracking mechanics, don't kid yourself. "Entire point of the game," my god, you just ran at the monster and when you found him you went "well, I'm satisfied! after all, this the point of the game!" Don't make me laugh.
>The all-class Dome making Tracker/Trapper pointless
If a class's whole design is to press one fucking button, it's a fucking shit design, and you're ignoring the actual fun parts like, you know, their actual fucking abilities.
The rest of your points are so vague and lack any examples or substance I'm not going to waste both of our time trying to decipher what exactly you meant. The "flee-til-three" thing I'll give you though, absolutely.

EVOLVE DEFENSE FORCE ON FULL POWER EAT SHIT GLAD YOU LOST YOUR JOBS
you are probably that vore loving furry that shilled this game non stop
Yeah they sure paid all of those journos to shit on their dlcs.
I still enjoy playing it
Doesn't change the fact that they thought they could get away with it
>that video
this game looks cool. What happened?
lmfao who pays people to shit on other games
fucking lunatic
>I'm only pretending to be retarded!
How about you use your fucking eyes, ears and brain, you idiot? Corpses and Trees were clear indicator of monsters.
Fucking faggots wanting spoonfeeding. Back in my day we had to LEARN the game.
I thought it was fun, but 60 freedom papers is WAY TOO MUCH for that game.
Also, in the beginning they decided to lock content behind dlc
I'm glad to have played the pre-release demo and the free-to-play version
its repetitive
too much dlc
But it's okay when any other company does it, right?
Rival companies. It happens all the time.
Misinformation campaign plus utter shitstorm as a result.
Everything that happened after was directly because of the initial lies and shitstorm spread because of
it also affected the monster play by a lot, as a monster you had to learn the shape of the hunters to locate the trapper if you wanted to avoid getting domed, and also incap him to take it down when already trapped, so support and medic would always need to keep the trapper in good shape while assault does his thing. You should attack the medic or the support and then switch to the trapper for a quick incap or use some other TACTICS. The game had a lots of strategies when it came to making decisions on the fly. And this is just one (1) example and I didnt even talk about positioning or fuel management.
>Rival companies.
lets see some names
>Learning a ded game.
Lolnothx
It's not, and no one is suggesting that it is
You sound like a salty Turtle Rock dev
Man the lore and characters on this fucking thing didn't have any right to be as good as it was.
>You'll never play poker with Hyde, Griffith and Bucket
>You'll never have a drink with Cabot as he tells you stories from his cops days
>You'll never learn to hunt with Maggie and Daisy
>You'll never make your own lavasuit with Jack's mum
>You'll never see them all slowly die trying to contain the monsters all the while Shear is made more and more like an apocalyptic nightmare, to the point where even people are starting to mutate on their own all thanks to Kala giving every single little bit of information about Humanity to the monsters by accident
>You will never fight a corrupted Kala to the death
>You'll never wake up to see Humanity having to go down back to the fucking dark ages because all the spacetravel devices work on fucking patterson devices
No fuck kala she was the worst hunter who bitched so much not even the bug man was that much of a bitch
Which games are rivals to this pile of shit? Rival companies, lol
The evolve defense force are a bunch of delusiobal idiots.
i will samefag your post until you give me names of companies that paid for bad reviews
You had to learn shit that was highlighted for you on the screen? Fucking hell, someone stop this Einstein
Self-fulfilling prophecy.
Gearbox, who sabotaged them, for starters.
Valve, for leaving the company because they wanted to actually work on the game
Basically anybody not part of 2k
Cosmetics ARE content otherwise they would be free
Did you just... google a screenshot of Quake, name the file "wewwwew.jpg", then try to use it to defend Evolve's barebones "tracking" system? Or, like, do you think it gives you hardcore gamer cred because you played one of the most popular FPSs ever?
Anyways, the fact that you think corpses and trees are even worth mentioning, as if they add anything significant to the pathetic "tracking" game, really says it all. It's not deep, it never was.
So why didnt they give a 4v4 mode when the other monsters acted like special infected?
Any developer who blames consumers for bad sales isn't a very good developer. If you don't believe, remember how assblasted Tale of Tales was after their Kickstarter-funded "game" failed?
You are definitely a salty dev. Valve bathes in money and uses it as toilet paper, you so mad
Yes. You wouldn't believe the number of 360 noscoping idiots as medic
You also wouldn't belive the number of idiots not using their jetpacks
Or not communicating
Or not using their equipment.
...
Because this isn't L4D, and Valve owns that.
>Valve bathes in money and uses it as toilet paper
That's exactly my point, thanks for agreeing.
goliath was great, but i just loved playing cheeky Kraken.
Get pinged by the trapper scan, lay all of your mines in some corner and move on. 20 secs later someone dies on the ground, while i was having a snack somewhere else.
gearbox is part of 2k you dip
you could copy the mechanics
I'd blame the publisher in Evolve's case
I guess Duke Nukem Forever, Aliens: Colonial marines, and several more didn't happen.
Picking off targets is still a thing though, except now you just don't have to immediately focus one, and instead have to weigh the advantages of going after each one.
wasn't gorgon heavily dependent of his mobility? if you had a trapper or someone who could slow or tether him he was royally fucked, wasn't he?
Nope. Patented. They legally can't.
>WE'LL NUKE THE MONSTER 'TIL IT GLOWS AND FUCK IT IN THE DARK!
the fact that his voice actor actually send his lines edited to sound like in the game when they were casting's amazing
>I guess gearboxs worst games ever didnt happen
yep you are correct
>he thinks voting with his wallet does anything but kill franchises
Yes that is the point, do not support practices you find scummy. That is the main reason I pirated Samus Returns instead of buying it because of the stupid amiibo bullshit.
TRS wanted to make the game F2P, but 2k insisted on full price.
This was somewhat mentioned in their very last twitch stream.
you can shoot banshee mines so easily that they are only somewhat useful while engaging the hunters in combat and placing them mines right behind the hunter youre aiming for.
You must've been facing some terrible hunters
Never thought I'd see Evolve Defense Force on Sup Forums but wow here we are
>
Just don't buy the amiibos then...
because it lost a lot of its stealth aspect? I imagine stalking as the monster was fun, but you weren't you just underpowered against the hunters? You had no reason to engage bevor lvl 3?
This is all I have to contribute. This is the impact evolve left on me.
