>What is Evolve (stage 2)? Evolve uses an asymmetrical structure where five players, four playing as hunters and one as the monster, battle against each other in an industrialized alien planet called Shear. Stage 2 is the transition to Free To Play + a lot of gameplay changes.
>I heard the game was dead? It was (at least on PC). 100-200 players and little to no updates from the developers. If F2P can bring it back is unknown, but as of right now 18k people are playing it.
>Should I "get" it? It's free. 18GB. Download and test it out.
>F2P Model?
Every week, four hunters (one of each class) and one monster will be in the free rotation. There are currently 24 Hunters and 7 Monsters in total, though some are variations of others. By playing the character tutorials, you unlock one hunter (Markov) and one monster (The Goliath) to keep forever.
Additional monsters, hunters, perks, and skins are unlocked by earning silver keys. Silver keys are earned by playing the game, leveling up, or getting login bonuses. Currently you can't actually buy silver keys, presumably so they can test the unlock rate, but that's coming later.
There is also a monthly login bonus punch card. You get one punch for each day you log in. Beyond silver keys, this can directly award new Hunters and Skins.
>What if I don't want to grind for characters and perks? You can buy the game and it to gives your account full founder benefits, which gives you 30k keys and most characters.
come to our discord its f-fun and we talk about VIDEOGAMES

Oliver Brown
We lost.
I caught up to him as abe in the first 30 seconds of the game because of sunny. However I got there a bit ahead of my team and got downed pretty easily. We got him to half health in the first dome.
Blake Martin
What would happen if Jack hit on Maggie
Juan Bell
I think I've fought kraken twice total from 1-20.
Get kraken.

Which monster unlocks the silver DoT?

>making a worthless statement like "Fearing Monsters" >When picture evidence of a supreme fucking autist with 71(now 72) wins a row in a fucking gorgon yeah okay dood, just fuck off
Christopher Edwards
Gorgon because after logging in everyday for 18 days you get Kraken for free!
Wyatt Williams
Kraken is free on day 18 of the consecutive login thing
Isaac Wright
Torvald 13 Parnell 17 Maggie 17
Dominic Reed
You admitted to have fucked up here:
Hudson Thomas
Im not him, im just pointing out that your statement is not only fucking worthless but wrong
Lucas Phillips
Do the post match key rewards dwindle later on? I got like 9.5K in about two sittings, so I wonder if it's worth just waiting for two and a half week not playing it.
Ryder Hill
they do since profiles stop leveling at 30
at higher levels your best bets for decent bonuses are X amount of matches as class x "hidden rewards"
Dylan Brooks
The monster version
Jackson Lopez
It does slow down some, but if you really want to play Kraken soon I'd say it's alright time buy him it's only a 6.5k key investment. Actually I just remembered I saw this a few times when I was playing so Kraken is probably the next monster to go on rotation. So you should at least wait until tomorrow
Justin Fisher
>pounce what
Xavier Wright
Sneak attack/pounce
Same shit
Mason Young
>Kraken is probably the next monster to go on rotation there goes my fun as Lennox
Jordan Rogers
Alright then, thanks.
Kevin Cook
Is it just me or do Wraith's trajectory projections just straight up lie 70% of the time? Dead center abduct's targeting circles thing on a hunter, and Wraith flies happily into the edge of the cliff 5' below that, perfectly consistently.
If they don't want people just spam decoy and supernova, maybe warp blast and abduct should actually hit where you aim them. Decoy is a boring skill, but at least it isn't incredibly frustrating to try to use.
Levi Flores
I have no issues aiming warp blast ever, maybe you're trying to move the camera before the ability actually goes off and are fucking it up?
Jack Lewis
Teach me master. Cant win any match when im playing as gorgon
Brody Wilson
People are not getting better even at level 20+ and it annoys me you guys
Medics have like a 10% heal uptime Supports never save anyone Trappers never CC the monster Assaults have like a 10% damage uptime
Austin Parker
monster is pretty fun
Parker Roberts
usually level 28-30 players at least know their preferred role
usually
there are fucking level 26 players that don't know how Laz works, I got resurrected by one idiot support when Laz was alive and well and that fucked us over bad because I got a strike
>game in the bag >support runs out and dies to the stage 3 monster by himself >immediately returns to dropship as I'm reviving him.
I hate people
Mason Martinez
The Laz player was ok. There is nothing wrong with Laz. The other two were idiots, especially the Bucket support that revived me.
Chase Davis
I've got some currency
should I buy all the 2750 characters or are there some characters that are "unplayable"?
Lucas Gray
>There is nothing wrong with Laz.
David King
Here's a list of characters you really shouldn't buy:
EMET Slim Torvald Parnell
You can make other characters work. Those four are the bottom shitters.
Aiden Rogers
>dome is up >I go down >laz comes in for the save >assault stops what he's doing and revives me
Aaron Hughes
I'm sorry you suck at playing the game if you don't know how to work with Laz or can't play as him?
Mason Garcia
Do not go to the steam forums for this game, it's so dumb >Laz and Parnell are OP >Wraith is the weakest monster and needs tons of buffs >Emet is the best healer for beginners, you can't lose as him
Brayden Turner
I'm a monster player you shitter. No Laz has ever caused me any issues.
Owen Wood
>completely dumpstering shitstains as Behemoth >fully leveled damage reduction perks that make it so I take 40% less damage
I AM FUCKING INVINCIBLE
Brayden Perry
How is anyone supposed to know you're one of those monster only autist retards from what you're posting? Fucking mongoloid. Still, Laz is a fine medic in the right hands. Even after his nerfs.
James Kelly
Not him but whatever
Lvl1 is 1Net 1Spidertrap 2Acidspit Lvl2 is 3Acidspit 3Spidertrap Lvl3 is 3Net Take it slow while you fight, find a place to hide and draw them to you. AOE them with Acid and net while staying mobile Lay up spider traps and wait for them to make mistakes, someone getting isolated by an unlucky spidertrap will usually allow you to go ham Acid is mad strong on spidertrapped and incapped hunters but do not stop ressucitate (net does) Spidertrap last indefinitely, drop them behind you while you run away from the hunters
Blake Morgan
>There is nothing wrong with Laz a a a w
god this game is fucking doomed with worthless players like this

You can stop posting any time, retarded mong.

How many traps can you have up at a time?

See Again if you didn't get the hint the first time.
Oliver Russell
So how do you start and level your Goliaths?
I've been on a monster winstreak with: Lvl 1: 2 Rock Throw, 1 Leap, 1 Fire, 0 Charge Lvl 2: 3 Rock Throw, 1 Leap, 2 Fire, 1 Charge Lvl 3: 3 Rock Throw, 2 Leap, 3 Fire, 1 Charge
Is my 'loadout' acceptable?
Connor Nelson
He's better at escaping than even Wraith or Gorgon, and he has SO MUCH HEALTH
I literally just spent 20 minutes in a match and got like 40 kills. I just kept letting them come back at me and not killing off the last person. Got to stage 3 and just shit on them next to the power relay right where the drop ship reinforces
>they started raging in chat >these people were on a 12 win streak
the salt was tangible
Tyler Morales
>He doesn't main crow
Jackson Foster
But I do
Elijah Perez
>someone mentions a support fucking up >this autistic and retarded monster only player goes on a sperg shitpost parade because of Lazarus
lol are you from the Veeky Forums group
Brody Gray
>40% less damage
really? is that achievable through perks? I thought it was like 30%?
What is your skill-level order?
Josiah Campbell
>trap posting get out bob is the only monster where I truly suck, I can't kill anything with it and I waste too much roll power for wildlife
Eli Diaz
need super weewop goliath tips
should I spend money on perks or save up for guys
Angel Williams
>There are people who unironically take Laz out to do anything BUT Grief pubs in Absolute tip top fucking kek anyone who takes that shitstain excuse for a medic out needs to gas themselves, its a shitty character, with a shittier ability and loadout roster compared to every other fucking medic.
Kevin Howard
See for the thid time. Fuck, you are slow in the head.
Daniel Jenkins
start with 1 of each, charge is very useful for gaining distance in straightaways before using your traversals
Camden Thomas
no you You play a character that is inferior in every way to all others in his class outside of a shitty gimmick that doesnt matter anymore in the new balance
you need to fuck off, and Laz needs to be moved into Support, removed from the roster or made to not be fucking trash ass faggot like yourself
Grayson Anderson
>Tfw leveled up playing mostly monster >Now feel too high level to play hunter because no perks >Keep playing monster and make the problem worse
Angel Ramirez
See for the fourth time. Get a fucking clue already, worthless monster autismo.
Connor Harris
one of the gold perks will give you 20% its like 5000 for each level though
The first two are 8% and then 12% giving you another 20%
Pretty retarded and op
Senpai its almost impossible to lose as Bob. Don't worry about stealth, and dont use abilities on wildlife, roll in to them and on the exit of a roll smack them
Tongue Grab is important Rock wall is fine at level 1, its mostly to by time
Use tongue grab and then lava bomb at your feet, usually an instant kill
Jump on downed hunters, and constantly place a lava bomb down on top of them so nobody can revive them
Fissure can climb over walls, so the faggots that try to keep the high ground cant escape It also knocks them over if they're on their touching the ground
>when the dumbass hunters dome you when you aren't trying to escape
Luke Fisher
who is laz and why is he controversial
Jace Sanchez
I'm trying to, but it's just so much more difficult than Abe when paired with low-level pubs.
Bentley Mitchell
It's just a some shitty monster only player that got buttfucked too hard a few times by Lazarus players when he was just starting out. Permanently fucked up his sissyboy brain.
Christopher Thompson
>STOP PLAYING THINGS I DON'T LIKE >IT'S NOT TIER ONE SO FUCK OFF >REEEEEE
Ryder Martinez
your resident mad mags main here
the devs confirmed that wasteland daisy's AI is no different from vanilla daisy and that she will only attack if the monster is right next to her
goodbye to the days of pretending i'm furiosa
Ethan Jones
Dont play monster, I play hunters, Im an actual decent medic and an alright trapper, go fuck yourself. Every single match ive had with a laz he was worthless deadweight and brought nothing to the team. Fuck yourself glove fucker, face the music, hes a terrible character and hes trash where the gameplay is right now
James Morales
how do we buff Torbad?
Hudson Clark
>no snake/seaserpent monster >no sasquatch monster >no burrow monster sad
Carter Gomez
Combo of both. Buy a couple of perks that would be the most useful to roles you mainly play, then spend the rest of your sheckles on characters. You'll unlock a fair number of perks via leveling up the hunters, and should you outright buy the perks they would normally grant you wont receive any compensation when you reach the required level.
Brayden Davis
>tfw Laz saved your ass from strikes twice and helped you win against a 22 streak Kraken faggot
based Laz
Dylan Ramirez
remove minimum distance on mortars make shotgun more satisfying to shoot
Hunter Diaz
Just bought Parnell. What am I in for?
Wyatt Gomez
make mortar faster or make it track a bit improve shotgun damage
Christian Gutierrez
They need to spread the damage out on Gorgon's skills more
That shit is fucking annoying to fight because NONE of the abilities do anything except the acid spit and that shit burns 75% of your health off before you even get to jump away.
I mean honestly it's fucking cancer to play against, I should get punished for eating too many abilities not for having him just breath in my direction once
Joshua Jenkins
>22 win streak >couldn't keep pressure on a downed hunter with the ranged AOE monster he was pretty shit to let a laz res anybody ever.
Jacob Bennett
/evog/ will tell you he is bad, but those are lies. He does decent damage.
Daniel Parker
on what level do you play?
Liam Martinez
Can't be worse than Hyde and his flamethrower that good monsters try to avoid.
Colton Rodriguez
A big black ____________mistake.
Daniel Hall
swap speed perks.
Wyatt Robinson
When hes in Super Soldier. Outside of it, hes fucking garbage.
Parnell is just a direct disadvantage because a Lennox or Blitz would do it better.
Hudson Adams
How can I improve as Griffin? Should I just spam harpoon all day or should I try to time it for when monsters uses traversals/abilities?
Robert Adams
Okay who are the worst characters right now? from Worst to least offending >Laz >Emet >Hyde >Wasteland Maggie
Who else????
Liam Foster
Ranked and regular I'm level 31
Bentley Morris
post proof of your Behemoth win-streak or your stat page.
Ian Anderson
I shoot as much as I use the harpoon. I harpoon less if it's a monster that is barely hindered by harpoons. If I see it's a retard that takes over 3 seconds to escape the poon then I will be pooning him a lot.
Christopher Cooper
So about the game's "story" and "lore":
Was there anything added apart from Hunter backstories, like Parnell and his old crew's or Slim's, or is it still just "killing weird, unnatural alien monsters because they kill people"? Is there any place to read up on it, if there was any progression in the lore?
I know it's pretty shitty but I like the universe and the characters
