Well when you offer a shit ton of DLC it's inevitable there's suckers out there to buy it. Evolve is the perfect example of overdoing it on DLC... waaaaay too much. The worst thing is that for every sucker who buys it the message is sent to developers that this practice is perfectly ok and the worse it gets!

rdgneoz33335d ago

Yep, though if you look at the player base on steam, it has dropped a ton. Article the other day was saying peak was about 27k, while the 24 hour peak (about the 9th) was 5.4kish.

Anthotis3335d ago

A shame they can't get refunds, but then they brought it on their own mindless selves by buying this utter crap.

Still, i'd prefer Take Two lost rather than gained in this case.

MrGEE3335d ago

try pirate bay for games like this ,has reasonable price and tons of dlcs

guitarded773335d ago

Yup. We need more gamers to stand up against these practices and close our wallets.

". Digital has been very strong for us, not only with full game downloads but also the attach rate for our season pass has been very strong. "

Offcourse those greedy bastards wants games to go all digital because once you buy it, there is no way to refund your game. Take Two is a POS company.

All the suckers who bought this DLC fest game....just ends up being bad for all of us at the end of the day

Thanks guys ¬¬

DarkOcelet3335d ago

I actually pity the people who bought this game without knowing about their dlc plans or how its light on content. I can see this game will decline very soon.

Blackleg-sanji3335d ago

Why gamers why? Sigh their dlc plan is gonna spread like wild fire

Xavior_Reigns3335d ago

Why? Because the new generation of gamers have been conditioned to believe these practices are alright, along with a few "veteran" gamers.

WizzroSupreme3335d ago

I'm sure they are. Money talks.

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."

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

Germaximus639d 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.

LordoftheCritics639d ago

I used to play this a bit.

Was kinda fun.

Evolve or Die

Evolve is an asymmetrical multiplayer experience born at the tail-end of the wrong era, in the multiplayer world.

Great idea but poorly executed and destined to fail from the begging. Only thing I’m grateful towards this game is that it’s the one that convinced me to never buy a game blind again.

Shadowrun for the Xbox 360/PC would of been a better example of a great online game that launched At the wrong time.

Livingthedream1108d ago

Shadow Run was fantastic! Would probably do alot better now.

DaveZero1108d ago

Is this a new evolve game??
