Games are meant to be Entertainment, Not a heavy investment, after all the game is going to devalue rather very fast at there high price DLC, the cost of the game is enough to make millions for the devs and publishers, so why be so very GREEDY? we the game players have stud by for long enough being ripped off, and then they want seasonal pass cost to be added as well.

I't just not on.

Falconian, its rather simple most of the time,

Investors give theyre money to 2K, i assume 2K promised to build a modular shooter game based on DLC extensions wich can be extended into oblivion = high revenue over a longer time then a simple release window.

Investors then demand from 2K a Business Model and game concept to prove theyre promises.

BAMM there you go you, evovle dlc and retail price plan.

Most likely they made such a price plan to get invest money even after release to make those dlc`s, normally the investment stops on release, by promising a longlivity over dlc`s you can secure funds after release. Getting you invest money long after release.

im serious i bet my ass thats what happend there.

Im totally against such practices, but only a failed promise to the investors will change such invest methods.

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

Germaximus1051d 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.

LordoftheCritics1051d 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.

Livingthedream1520d ago

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

Is this a new evolve game??
