>What is Evolve?
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.

>What's new?
evolveupdates.com/stage2/

>I heard the game was dead?
It was, ~200 players on Steam and little to no updates from the developers. If F2P can bring it back is unknown, but as of right now it's been hovering in the teen thousands.

>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. By playing the character tutorials, you unlock one hunter (Markov) and one monster (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.

>Microtransation?
None as of yet.

Does anyone else just play Behemoth for fun in Training?
You can get a little xp for a while.

daily reminder that this is always best goliath

Hoping you guys can help. I play all my games through a headset but whenever a person uses voice chat on evolve the sound comes from my monitor. I have tried checking both the game and windows options but I can't find anything. Nothing on official forums and this is the only game it happens on. Halp

try completely deactivating your monitor as an audio option in the sound options?

Is it worth placing down mines as Markov if you can shoot the monster in the back with your assault rifle instead?

Set ur headset as your "Default communication device" under playback devices

Always put more mines unless its a kraken

anyone wanna team up?

on your mom? ok

>full armor
>guy with lightning gun touches my hp for half asecond
>suddenly armor is completely gone
>alt f4

should have reported him

Aside from Evolve, do the rest of you play any other "Free" games? I play Smite and Paladins.

>lightning gun guy 2 more games in a row
>feels like hes hacking
>wait
>is this not hacking
>no way its not hacking
>3 but 3 games in a row

TF2 really

Who is the best Evolve grill?

>inb4 wraith

...

Hank's. It makes for a fine cookout.

Caira

>mfw I see a rank 40 lazarus
>mfw Laz/Hank (me)/EGriffin/Markov vs Meteor Goliath
>mfw we win

I have no face for this.

Barely tf2 and league. Looking for something good like evolve

The FUCK do you do against a good Goliath?

Most will hit Stage 2 before the first dome and even if they are captured if you just save your hurdles for the second the dome falls the armor and heal will mean you won't suffer any real damage.

>shitters saying QC is good

steamcommunity.com/app/273350/discussions/0/353915953248175198/

as a monster no medic is easier to destroy than QC, not even Slim goes down as fast

Requesting updated tier list

Finally, 10 winstreak in shitty pubs

I bet in pre-made it would take me less than a hour.

How does this happen.

you have to have a sub 90 IQ for starters

how do you even make those tier lists?

Is she really that bad?

She's fine if you can stack healing fields properly
That's just never going to happen since either your teammates are too stupid to stand in the healing area or the monster can will just smack you out of the area with pretty much any attack

Dirty Bomb
Bucket. He makes food that Crow finds inedible.

>Bucket. He makes food that Crow finds inedible.
Uh-oh.
I see someone is literally asking for beans and jerky for the rest of the week.

At least it is dead

>she's fine if you can stack
>you will never actually stack anyway against anything but bot monsters or maybe the worst shitters

she's not fine
she is incredibly flawed and bad and absolute shit

>MM is once more pushing me to play with the same pool of retards as before
>the fucking kala pickers who shit talk while in fights when their strategy is to run in circles around rocks to avoid the medic and heals while still being shit at dodging monster abilities

fuck me

>get into a group
>set preference to monster
>free 150 keys each game + confusement hilarity as the lobby wonders why none of the monster preference people got it
Do it while it's hot

I guess I was winning too many times yesterday because now I am forced to play with bad hunters who also pick stupid shit like Waggie.

>its a premade team with jack when youre playing goliath episode

Yeah.. now I'm gonna just dodge Waggies again. I was in a match with a Waggie that could not track the Gorgon worth shit. Literally got free stage 3.

focus someone else

Dota 2 and Warframe. But due to work our pubstack plays Dota much less often. As for Warframe, I just like to grind.

>It's a the AI don't have double health to make up for how shit they are so if a teammate leaves in the middle of the match you need to abandon too

trying to stab the pit

Should I be using specific perks for different monsters? Currently I run leg breaker/feral instincts/evolved recovery on all of them.

>MM pushing you deeper and deeper into the shitter pit just because you won some matches
>seeing retards who all pick the same class and then go "looooool"

only the dead etc

You absolutely should be switching perks depending on the monster

Is new Caira good niggers?

read the thread, dumbass

Is gorgons acid bugged? As both hunter and monster I have seen people rez other hunters as he sprays them but it does nothing?

Make me nigger, you literally could had said yer or no but you decided to be an asshole

It doesn't interrupt revives. Neither does goliath's fire breath

short answer: no
long answer: nooooooooooooo

read the thread, dumbass

You have to cc them to stop the revive. Dots wont do it.

I've been cheated twice as monster today, insta killed soon as dropship opens and again with a markov bursting my hp for loads of damage.
I guess every kiddie is now googling for epik evolve hacks.

And of course this happens just as I'm near my first 10 win streak.

So I was in a match with a Torvald, Jack who didn't use his repulsor Val and Bucket.

Now I'm not 100% certain on Bucket's turrets, but they+torvald can't drop goliaths armor in 4 seconds at stage 3 can they? Afterwards the damage slowed down significantly until I killed 2 people when it picked up hugely again. This was a cheat, right?

>val
I meant Q Caira. I was laughing at their lineup but I was taking a shit load of damage 24/7

If bucket's turrets can take advantage of weak points, it might be plausible
Otherwise something's fishy

Tryhard premade I guess? I know what you mean I've seen these goliaths go super sonic around the map and juke us then pop up 200m away in less than 10 seconds. They hit stage 2 literally a minute after the game has started it's pretty bullshit but so is good hunter teams too.

If you aren't running full dmg reduction perks q caria can amplify dmg on you by almost 3x, all the time. She's also a support and healer in 1.

Yeah, bucket's turrets can hit weak points, but it's unreliable.

they specifically target weak points with aimbot levels of accuracy.

Well that sounds rather annoying to deal with at relays.

>lose because yet another waggie retard stops playing mid match and just hangs around at relay
>only because the assault called him out for being shit
>would have won if they didn't essentially ragequit from one comment
>then the retard medic tries to start shit with me at the end when we lose just because we have one retard who gave up on the game

that's it, even if it means it takes 10 minutes longer to find a game I am dodging all Waggies

I can't believe I was actually enjoying some matches yesterday but now today it's nothing idiots and total shitters

It is, I think you just gotta stay out of the red aoe areas she shoots but if you do that then you'll never hit the hunters.
Thinking about it now it's kind of a double edged sword for hunters.
>Stay in aoe healing and dmg amplify area
>Monster can now slap all your shit
etc.

Wait her damage grenades amplify the damage you take?

It's not. Just kill her. She's literally the squishiest medic.

Kraken is fucking terrible to face... I'm bored of losing every time against it.
I think that evolve is going to lose one more shitter, me.

stop picking lennox all the time then

Maybe play monster and have fun, fag.
Maybe get friends so you can actually beat monsters.

Well I'm talking out of my ass tbqh since I haven't read her abilities yet but it's the only explanation I can think of since I just had a game with qcaira + blitz and I accidentally hit one of markovs fully charged mines and it took half my armour with just 1 of those things.
Don't want to even think what a couple of those would do.

>stop picking lennox all the time then
Well you are rigth... Every fucking one picks the fucking kraken...

I play with friends and I'm sure that we lost more rounds against Kraken than we win. With the rest of monsters we have a positive match win streak for sure.

You got four options.
Maggie, Jack Griffin and Aesthetic Griffin.

Bring the shit head to the ground with harpoons or boost above it as jack and kamehameha the dunkass to the ground. A kraken on the ground is an easy kill.

>boost above it as jack and kamehameha the dunkass to the ground

this is hilarious because only a shit kraken would let this happen

So most pub Krakens.

I don't have the trapper role in my team but i will ask my teamate to stop using Jack...
and we will stop playin like mother and son

You couldn't even do that to me and I am no monster autist.

Lennox lose her Tier 1 fitting with kraken.

Tips for elder kraken please. Do I take all his abilities? Perks? Playstyle?

Evolved Kala monster when?

>be m goliath
>have a casual match with a val, cabot, w maggie, and markov
>go pretty well take down cabot and markov
>evolve
>fight them again take down cabot again
>about to evolve when we fight again
>take down everyone except w maggie
>all of a sudden die instantly
>have loads of health
>figure out it was the assault

Can't remember the fucker's steam name would have reported him

Remove "Elder" part.

Everyone will say don't play ekraken because he's piss easy to beat but fuck them he is fun to play as.
I usually go movespeed/dmg reduct/brawler but only because I don't have perks like cooldown reduct yet, just do whatever can't go wrong with dmg reduct.
Tips would be only use missle when you have a hunter pinned to a wall or your right in their face, also lightning doesn't slow you down when using it so it's a nice wildlife killer.

Never, but i want to see a 70% monster 30% kala support hunter.

Also: Is trapper the hunter with less responsability in the team now? The only thing that must do is spawn scan every time...

Least responsibility? Maybe. Supports usually don't do shit but shield the retard being hit where as trappers need to properly use CC.

where is this from?

stage 1?

In stage 1 there was tubes with captured monsters in them. You're not the only monster on the planet, there's hundreds/thousands. You play as an Alpha though.

Not certain if they're on maps in Stage 2 however.

The wraith's still in the tube on Wraith Trap. I don't think any of the other current maps feature trapped monsters
New maps fucking when, I miss Aviary and I don't like the sound of these map variants

>that goliath in the forest river map who would shake the fuck out of his cage if you flew near it

That does not answer my question.

its ur twin u ugly cunt

>gets assblasted by simple question
kek

>where is this from?
Ok, I take it from google.

>new matchmaking

every game is filled with brain dead idiots

It's fucky.
Braindead idiots or batman, batman, batman and a braindead idiot.
