Saw this coming.

Maybe I'll give it a shot. Looked fun, but there was no way I was trying it with its price tag. I'm a poorfag, my mid-tier gaming PC is my greatest luxury and is probably nearly worth what my car is.

Also I don't wanna read the whole damn post but I'm willing to bet they didn't make characters free and you still have to grind or buy.

I will never understand it. The entire game is basically an upgraded version of a multiplayer mode that's offered in dozens of other games for free along with all the standard modes like DM and TDM. It's like if someone tried to make an entire game from top to bottom centered around CTF and only CTF. It doesn't make any fucking sense.

Buying content doesn't give you any inherent advantage

I'm pretty sure that all the monsters and classes are balanced, so unless the classes that are paid for are significantly stronger than the base game ones, it's hardly P2W.

You aren't fucking "paying to win" then, within a match, no amount of money you throw at the game will guarantee you a win.

Paying money simply advances progression faster. P2W isn't the proper term and has entirely different connotations. If anything it's "pay to advance at a significantly faster rate", it won't necessarily help you win.

Fucking why.

Overwatch has no paywall, freemium, unlocking or really any kind of similar garbage. There's some custom skins that don't interfere with the game at all and nobody with their head screwed on tight gives a shit about them.

Also the game is actually popular, well made and has nothing to really fear.

Enough of a reason right there.
>>
>>344108216
But that content that you pay for isn't necessarily stronger than the classes available to you from the beginning. You'd only be able to play as a single hunter or monster at a time, ones available for unlocking to F2P players, that are just as balanced as the classes available to F2P players off the bat. It literally just gives you more choices and cuts out the middle man. It may be content that F2P players don't have initially, but the point I'm trying to stress is that the content you can purchase is still on the same level as the base unlocks. They aren't better. Hence, not P2W.

They're countdown ends in 12 hours, probably starts then. They removed it from Steam today on top of that countdown for the last few days so everyone was guessing F2P already. Probably only did the forum post to try to get ahead of the potential shitstorm from their 10 fans.

I enjoy it immensely. I see it as a sort of sequel TF2 never got and never will get since hats are more important to Valve than developing new games and new ideas.

I really tried hard to hate this game because I hate Blizzard and Blizzdrones. I thought it would be handholding garbage, turns out it's a fucking arena shooter with actual depth and a huge skill ceiling.

You are really not getting the message here

It's not like Evolve is a game about fucking counterpunching or some shit. You choose your balanced character in the beginning, and it locks you in with that character, who has a specific role and the game is balanced around that role.

I want you to tell me exactly where the advantage comes from in having additional choices in who to play. How does having more hunters/monsters increase your odds of winning? Riddle me that Batman.

Hey man, that's all you had to say. If the DLC characters are significantly stronger than the base level characters, then that's an advantage.

i mean people have thousands of hours in PoE because it's the kinda game you can devote a shitload of time to

nearly maxing a character in D3 doesn't take long and there's no incentive to go for gg gear because it's literally the same unchanging grift gameplay just with higher enemy numbers. at least PoE has atziri, lab and maps (which are more interesting than grifts cuz of the mods)

yeah but in D3 it happens so quickly that you drop it a few weeks later. PoE has more depth so it keeps you invested for longer. but some people might not dig that so D3 is an option. two different games for different things really. both good at what they do - D3 just isn't the kinda game you play for long. hoping for a new xpac.

We did it boys, we fucking did it!

I kinda feel bad for turtle rock because they put a lot of effort into the game just to be jewed on by 2k master overkike
>lol they pay me full price for only 10% of the game
>i sell them the rest when its done
>i am a business genius.

NO just no, if any turtle rock dev is reading this, sorry for the storm we waged on you i was part of the leading team (even though my english is broken my point got through) its not that i didn't appreciated the artwork nor the gameplay i actually did, the problem was it being incomplete charging full price and charging extra ... see, we can tolerate early access as long as its honest and transparent but to witness greed this obvious was painful and diminishing to any interested party.
The great job the game devs did were overshadowed by the terrible business decisions 2k made.
>>
>>344114937
The problem was THQ dying, since they were original publisher, and in charge of the jewry. 2k just took control.

We didn't have anything to do with it.

The game was shit on a fundamental level, which is why it dropped 90% of its player base in under two weeks.
>>
>>344102027
The reason the game died so fast was because of the DLC shit and the fact the game is repetitive. Its always hunters chase monster, until monster chase hunter. It is just a grind always running to catch a monster or always running away.
I wish they would have had side projects for the Hunters to do. Things that would give them buffs, besides just killing animals

I haven't played in quite a while, but just by the nature of their toolkits Lazarus and Cabot will never really be useful. They're both a design case where there is no middle ground to be found in competitive play with their toolkits; either they are overpowered or useless. Back when Kraken has first become insanely OP due to shitty programming it wasn't that bad because a good Cabot could absolutely wreck a Kraken as the primary damage dealer while assault helped with its secondary. Both were too strong but only Cabot got nerfed.

Sunny is in the same boat but they've elected to keep her viable which means she's gamebreaking. As before: no middleground possible here with toolkit as it is

But the biggest problem is not any one balance issue, it's the way TRS goes about their balancing process. Using pub metrics to argue that characters are balanced is ridiculous. I don't care that Lazarus has a ~50% win rate in pubs, at a high level of play he's fucking useless

Should I just buy the $5 base game so I get a bunch of free characters and items? I actually really like the game, but never bought it because it was dead. $5 to avoid massive grinding seems fine since I'm sure I can squeeze at leat 5 hours of enjoyment from this game if there are actual people playing.

Evolve to only 1.5 million dollars to make, yet MN9 had 4 million and Bloodstained had 5 million.

Evolve is actually a fairly decent game ruined by the most disgusting practice of DLC jewry in the west. Home come Evolve looks and plays okay st 1.5 million dollars, yet MN9 looks like shit and has tons of bugs?

turtle rock is a really good studio; talented devs. i dont think /v/ understands how influential it is, this site gets riled up by anti-marketers and marketers alike all the time. like any intelligent marketing team will invade here months before a game drops to sway public opinion, a lot of this board openly accepts/operates on a hivemind. its astonishingly easy for like 10-20 people to turn an opinion into "/v/'s opinion"

I wonder when devs realise you cant trust journalists, they are acting like con artists, you know, the one that woe you into sense of security with BS only yo rip you off later.

The game is honestly fun, it just wasnt anywhere near worth what they were asking for it. Beta was a good time.
>>
>>344138901
Well when I played it in the BIG ALPHA (and against the devs) it was pretty damn great. Minus the laggy servers, the game didn't have many bugs and monster play felt great.

Once released came though monster play got nerfed heavily. They put heavy cooldowns on sniffing(Your wallhacks) and jumping(Your travel/escape).

It slowed the pace of the game a lot, as well as releasing new hunters that further pushed the monsters to the breaking point.

For months after release the game was riddled with crazy bugs like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScSt9IWvXOQ
or
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBOwrkaEp4I

Skills not landing properly or not even working.

Balance has always been terrible as well, especially for new characters that were released. They either made them OP, or worthless on release, such as Torvold:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcB3vPojBZk

I haven't played in months though. There have been months of patchnotes/changes and I haven't played since Tier4(?) Hunters got released. Game is dead and took too long to find games. It was also VERY STRESSFUL because ONE WRONG MOVE and you lost (as monster or hunter)
