Same here. Loved the beta. Preordered and preloaded. Ready to go!
 
did they say at what time we can start playing on Tuesday?
 
I had fun in Alpha which I could NEVER get to work on PS4 due to the issues *go figure* so I just played PC and recently the BETA. I feel like its a fun game I can just bomb around and beat the shit outa people or monsters for a couple of hours and then get off. No MMO or FPS story grinding, just fast and furious blood and guts shooting spree to decompress my anger or long work day.

I'll be picking up my Gamestop copy Tuesday with preorder monster because hey, it saves me $15, so why not?
 
I don't have anyone to play with yet, but I bought it. Got it from greenmangaming for $45
 
Early on this as described something like Left 4 Dead, but with monsters. Are the betas anything like that? Do you have to play/coordinate with other people to have fun?

its 4 hunters vs 1 monster. and ya if the hunters dont work together, 9 times out of 10 they are going to lose.
 
I swear to God, if they they didn't nerf that Wraith monster, im gonna go on a tyrade on Turtle Rocks forums for bullshit game balance when 90% of the gaming population has stated its OP. My last game in Beta, I was with a REAL good team that we stuck around together and used EVERYHING at out disposble to try to capture, slow down, damage that fucking Cthluluu reject, but no matter what, he always fucking light zapped the bejesus out of us and sped away where we couldn't keep up. And we wasted SOOO much ammo and time on his fucking "clones"

The game is balanced around the hunters working as a team of 4 against 1 monster player. If you don't play/coordinate with your teammates I would imagine you are gonna have a bad time. You could always exclusively play as the monster or something though.

The gameplay is simply: team of 4 hunters tracks (and hopefully kills) 1 monster, while the monster eats wildlife and tries to evolve (hey that's the name of the game!) to gain power and either kill the hunters or destroy an objective. There are various hunters and monsters to choose from, but that's what the game boils down to.

they already stated that they made changes to Wraith after the beta...

While the Kraken did get some needed adjustments, the Wraith was introduced in a similar overpowered state for the Evolve beta, with a 71.1 percent win ratio

“We made adjustments and now expect to launch the game with all three monsters very near the 50% mark,” Turtle Rock stated...

Seeing some good reviews.

The Escapist - 9/10
Polygon - 8/10
GameSpot - 8/10

no post-release review embargo is a good sign...I already bought the game based on the beta but it's good that professional reviews feel the same
 
3GB day-one patch improves the game in a number of important ways...chief among them is shorter game and level load times, matchmaking and network bandwidth optimisations, and balance tweaks, Turtle Rock wrote in a post on the Evolve website...the update also squashes a raft of bugs, updates or replaces assets used for Elite skins for Hunters and Monsters, and adds connectivity to work with Evolve Hunters Quest, the Match-3 companion app for Evolve...

Is there any single player element to this game? Like in L4D you could play through the campaign with bots acting as your teammates.

Same option here? or is it always 5 players?
 
did they fix match making? In beta I had a ton of trouble finding games with a group. Solo Queue was fine.

Yes but not sure to what extent. My guess the tutorial for the hunter in the beta was a small taste on the campaign.
 
I'll wait for y'all to offer feedback before I take the plunge. I'm hoping for at least a little single-player content or something that doesn't require me to coordinate with a bunch of people to have fun.

Jesus H Post game launch patchs Batman! Remember when games launched "FULLY" and the developers had absolutely no choice but to release stable and bug free games?

I also remember when I couldn't remote in, purchase a game, and have it ready for me when I got home from work. The times aren't all bad! :p

Day-one patches don't bother me; that's just making the game better. Day-one DLC on the other hand...
 
Day 1 patches don't bother me, but I kinda wish the distro version of the game would just be pre-patched instead.

sounds like the single player will be similar to Titanfall's SP...but just like the Battlefield and CoD series this game is all about the multiplayer...if you want SP then this is not the game for you
 
That's a shame. I enjoyed playing through the campaigns of L4D and L4D2 on my own. At least the AI players help you, and don't run off Ramboing everything, and they don't scream in the headset at you :)

Anyway, I'll wait and see what you guys think in a few days. 100 bucks for the whole package is steep to begin with.
 
Not sure when I'm gonna pick this up still haven't finished the original.

4 hours and 20 minutes to go!!

i dont remember the last game i was this excited for.

Will a GTX 670 4GB with a i7 920 be able to run this at 60fps 1080p? And at what graphic setting. I played the Beta on Xbox One because a couple buddies were going to get it. I'm sorta thinking now PC may be the way to go.
 
I played the beta at 5760 x 1200 with the computer in my signature at just about if not full settings. AA may not have been maxed but I had no issues.
 
wow, not going to scream "another poorly optimized port" just yet but I'm extremely disappointed with the Evolve's performance so far, and this is on a freshly imaged machine in my sig.

I honestly hope the drivers Nvidia's drop tomorrow fix my FPS issues, playing right now on "very high" with 1xSMAA and I'm barely cracking 40FPS while in-game :mad:

So, I only played this game in the first beta (Where you could only be the goliath).

Never spent much time with any other class and I'm jsut wondering, why there's only a tutorial for the Golaith/assault class and no others?

Also why do they insist on dropping the hunters literally right on top of your head at the start of the game?

Played a few matches and I never could evolve because I was just constantly running fromt eh hunters as soon as the match starts and even if I just crouched they'd always catch up because there's such a little head start.
 
so played about 3 - 4 hours

the game is definitely fun, but can get stale pretty quick.

it is very boring if you're playing hunter, and dont have a team with mics workings together.

im just worried about how long this game will realistically last before people move on.

Pretty much my thoughts after spending several hours on the beta. I played with a full group of people the whole time, and I had a lot of fun. Unfortunately, I don't think I'd even bother playing the game unless I had 3 other friends to play with at all times, and even then, I don't know how long it would take to start getting stale. I have a bad feeling that after a while, most matches will start to seem very repetitive.
