I am loving the way this looks, but man that pricing and DLC stuff if putting me off big time.

If only my buddies were picking this up. I liked the beta a lot, but I won't play this game without buddies, and sadly the DLC shit has turned quite a bit of them off.

Still trying to decide if season pass is worth it
It'll be on sale before any substantial amount of content is out. I'll probably grab it whenever it hits $15.
45mins till midnight (00:00) according to steam anyway.
da fuq, steam now says:
"Coming soon
This item is not yet available."
instead of a countdown

Is anywhere running a good sale for this on PC in the US? Any 15 - 20% off pre order deals still up?
Afaik theres a GMG VIP sale (dunno the details) or you can buy it from nuuvem, just need to "move to brasil" to put it in your cart

Why not play with folks here on GAF? DestinyGAF and TitanfallGAF were fantastic with meeting up with great people, and I imagine it'll be like that here.
And honestly while I'm not happy with the DLC prices, I'm kind of sick of all the misinformation and spinning going on in regards to it. You have Jim Sterling not mention the free maps and modes (while praising a game this week for doing free updates to show a game 'doing it right', though I agree with him that HW is indeed a model to follow) in his analytical response, people refusing to look into it while spouting their hearsay and bias driven assumption, and even Jason from Kotaku of all people making it look more complicated than it actually is(I think GAF is rubbing off on him). Makes me wonder how many folks are being turned off by the legitimate issues of pricing and marketing focus principles rather than all the shit trying to make it look like a Watch Dogs situation or Day 1/cut content DLC garbage.

I have ten days to plat this. It should be fun.
Can you matchmake for coop? I don't think I ever saw an answer for that.

Looking forward to playing this with mic players (that talk!) on PS4, PSN name is WhupTroy, feel free to add me!

A 'Season Pass' consisting of a single DLC drop at that price, not really IMO.
As someone else said, there will likely be a sale somewhere at least for PC down the line.
Like if you're in a party/with friends looking for others? I think so. Only restriction I remember was that you can't have someone in the party in-game as the Monster or something to that effect.

Nah, I was hoping for a coop option like L4D so 4 people could vs a bot monster.
ArkkAngel007

Oh, I think you can set up with bots, though I'm not sure if there's a way to prevent it from autofilling with a player in those conditions.
Are you talking about co-op with friends? If so, you can build a party beforehand consisting of you and three other hunters, however you can't build an entire game with the monster through the matchmaking system. Instead there is apparently a custom match option for those wanting to play 4v1 with friends.

Well, I was expecting the worst anyway. After the Beta I have no interest in playing with randoms. We'll see how fun SP is.

Nice OT! Despite the fact I love the gameplay in Evolve I was worried about the potential sheer lack of longevity and bang for my buck. However, I managed to secure a PS4 copy at a very very good price and it should be with me for launch day tomorrow. So I am in and I am subbed!
How many other people are picking the game up on PS4?

Thanks for the kind words everyone.
This does exist for Evacuation but I don't think the other modes have that option without doing a custom game.

Set Monster as my least favorite = become the monster.
I have no idea how people play them properly, everything feels so clunky
I think the big issue I have with the monster versus a decent group of Hunters is that most maps getting spotted=death. Tranqs are brutal and most maps that I played in the Beta just aren't that friendly to the Monster in being able to hide from active pursuit.
Really hope the sequel (please let there be one) will have maps with more nooks and crannies more suitable for the monster outside of hugging a cliff wall in hopes the hunters jump over and don't hang around, as well as offering some more options in breaking line of sight.

Evacuation matches are rather difficult to find.
I hope they fix this cursor issue fast.
Edit: Ran into someone earlier who had already unlocked the third monster. Was really cool to fight against.

Here here I find it all to be quite rediculous. I feel like 2k and Turtle Rock have been really upfront about things.
They are treating Evolve like a title that will last a few years. I like them handling it this way with strong post release content and fixes.
It means that more then likely 90% of the main team won't be making Evolve 2 in the next coming weeks and are actually focusing on making this the game is needs to be.

I hope that's what happens. That's what I wanted from Titanfall too.
This is why I like Valve and Blizzard.

I've been complaining about it on their forums since the private alpha in August. Maybe they'll finally get around to it now that the game is out. -_-
And it's not hard to unlock all monsters. A single round of Defend with Goliath and then Kraken should do it, provided you use all of your abilities.

That's what worries me. I remember this issue from beta. It's fine for like 5 minutes and then vanishes.
Seems like something they should have fixed quite sometime ago.
I feel like they spent most of the time fixing the console versions since the betas. Motionblur enabled through a config file and with graphical glitches still...it really helps with this game too.

Very gorgeously designed OP, well done!
I'm still very skeptical. I picked it up during the $6 price error, and the DLC madness isn't really a huge concern to me right now. We'll see if the full game has any better legs with my crew than the Alpha/Beta did.
Best of luck to the Turtle Rock crew.
