So only really had time to play one game but quick question. Is arcade the only game mode? Or do I need to sign in with a 2k account for the others or?

while im not horribly bad at playing monster, playing against a good team of hunters feels impossible. i know its a skill issue so im not complaining about balance. im looking for tips on how to be better.

How do you get away from hunters? played a game as behemoth and no matter where i went or what i did i could never get away from them in any meaningful way. and when i got into a fight no matter who i focused i couldnt out damage slims healing, whether i attacked sunny her shield drone would save her and by the time i would go out of my way to kill it shed have another, markovs shield would save him, slim out healed any damage done, and jack would just keep pushing me leaving me completely immobile.

again im not complaining about balance im seriously looking for tips on what to do to turn this around.

Is it playable for PlayStation users?

to explain a member of the community who worked at gearbox after they bought out arc games i cant remember the name of, he was getting internal play sessions done and alot of ppl at gearbox liked the gameplay of gigantic than he got alot of feedback on changes/ things theyd like in a revival like an pitch deck from the ppl on the private servers and he kept pitching it to higher ups untill it happened but the downside with that revival was that gearbox contracted abstraction to work a revival instead of hiring an in house dev team so once that contract expired after features like an ranked mode, skins and the overall revival launch happened they couldnt work on it any long. game breaking bugs were never fixed as an result and the rampage edition was somehow more unstable than the private servers ppl have been playing on for years. so many of the core community went back to private servers but a small group hosts games few days a week on re. so if anyone in the community works at or has an contact at 2k an similar situation could happen

Any updated discord link? Every link I have tried has expired I WANT TO PLAY THIS MASTERPIECE!!!

PLease and thank you!

i know we’re all super hype that evolve is back thanks to the modders. but it’s bittersweet knowing that we can’t access it on our native gaming set.

this isn’t news or a revelation of any kind, but the game DOES run on laptops. i’m using my partner’s laptop to play it when i’m not at his place to use his pc, and it… works! albeit, all graphics are at minimum and frame drops can be heavy sometimes and i’m lucky to reach 60fps. but if you have a spare laptop that can run it, it’s better than nothing! especially with how expensive getting a pc can be these days.

even though it looks like i’m playing on a 3ds, it IS playable. i highly recommend any console player with a laptop that can run it to give it a try. you can just google what you need to run it, and since it’s a 10 yr old game, it’s pretty modest compared to most games these days. hope i gave one of you an idea bc it never crossed my mind until my partner brought it up.

happy hunting! <3

Ive played Behemoth since before the game was taken down, it is the safest Monster to play by a long shot, pretty sure Ive won 8 out of 10 of all Behemoth games Ive played. And when I lose it feels like I screwed up, not that the Hunters were good

Now the game has been back for some weeks Im finally getting matched against good Monster players (that or there is a hidden mmr)

Anyhow, I feel completely useless playing Hunter vs a decent Behemoth, Im a Trapper main and Ive been picking Wasteland Maggie for the Flamethrowing Daisy and although it does work at diverting the Monsters atention and chipping away some damage is still not enough

It keeps saying install failed everytime I boot up the launcher, doe anyone know what the problem is?

Maybe I'm just dumb, but I thought there was an option to switch between stage 2 and legacy from the discord stuff? Maybe I misread. I'm not particularly knowledgeable about editing files etc.

Pretty new and still learning the game, had wonderful game of wraith, constantly melting trapper and support easily, getting out of domes with minimal damage and evolving quickly.

Everything was going my way untill at the very end stage 3, only hyde and paladin remained, i heard its good to focus paladin last, but i couldnt for the life of me finish hyde off.

I kept having to go run off to get shield and slowly losing hp until the others revived n i got killed in the end.

What to do in this situation?

I never owned Evolve though i loved the game. i remember playing it at a friends house back as soon as behemoth released and the game was so fun, i never got a copy myself because i didnt have a proper console for it and by the time i did the servers were shut down. i kept up with the game via watching youtubers play it and i was pretty against Stage 2 as a whole. probably because i loved stealthing as the monster. i understand that is a pain in the ass to face though.

i played a bit of the evolve legacy emulator as well when i discovered that but needing to find groups of people in discord to play with made it pretty hard to access during my few free hours in the night. But the revival of stage 2, including the ever sought after *Matchmaking* has fully revived it for me. ive even fallen in love with stage 2 itself, though i preferred the atmosphere of legacy. ive been having an absolute blast playing as all roles and ive been trying to play them all evenly.

TLDR, games great, im glad its back and has so many new players flocking to it. and this just proves a good game can flourish even without progression

Thumbnail to change

Just got stage 2 set up and logged in. Invisible cursor fixed itself by closing and logging back on, but I keep getting frame skipping. It's so bad I can barely keep facing the right direction. Any ideas what could be causing this?

Whats up with that? Doesnt happen during the game itself, only while searching for a game, and only when I alt-tab. I thought it was Chrome but it happens even whithout other programs running.

My GPU is an oldie but I played Elden Ring without tanking my performance this much. There is definitely some kind of bottleneck issue or some kind of optimization problem going on.

Don’t dome if the monster is choosing to fight.

Had a bad support today constantly doming early and called me and trapper dumb when we told him to stop. We would have done so much more damage. Might of, actually, would have killed the monster if he didn’t dome on sight.

Hello Guys! 👋

I followed Evolve for alittle while and im amazed how far the modding team have come, Gaining MP and 3 regions supported with balancing/bug fixes supported is freaking awesome to see!

Now I've supported a couple of different games like this very one like Gigantic, Project Legacy, Battleborn and Lawbreakers,

Sadly like all "Unofficial" uses of IP, 2 of these got cease and desists (Gigantic and Lawbreakers)

Sadly the other two are still in progress or finding very little success outside of single player,

The progress of Evolve is a testament to how huge this game really was and how dumb 2K is for not properly handling the game with respect (I'm sure the dev team felt the worst of it)

Project Legacy or otherwise known as "Paragon" also felt the same Sting, The first true 3D Moba with Verticality was sadly sabotaged by Epic Games with monetisation! Cards were Items but you need to BUY THEM meaning new players couldn't build properly at all...

I personally have a soft spot for Paragon and one day hope many communities can come together to at least make each of these games playablefor the sake of Game Preservation,

For now i am trying Evolve for the first time and enjoying the thrilling gameplay, Truely a game that is unique to everything else 👌

I just wish the camera would have focused

And how?

My game shop is selling a brand new copy of evolve for $2. Should I get it? Will it work even though the game as I understand has been decommissioned?

I’ve seen quite a few videos online of different people playing the game despite it’s shut down then I learned it’s maintained by the community so I’ve thought that maybe I should try this game.
Anyone know where I should go? I am unfortunately not a veteran with the game, have never played it but it looks so cool

I enjoy playing Hunter quite a bit but haven’t really touched monster much. I’ve tried for a few hours to play monster and have won maybe 2 games total. The issue is that this is so far removed from games I normally play that I don’t even know what I’m doing wrong. It feels like my health gets shredded immediately in every fight by the time I get a single down (if that). I’m hitting most of my skill shots and targeting the characters people say to target but I just can’t seem to make anything happen. Tips? I’ve been playing almost exclusively Gorgon

So, i played legacy back in the day, like a lot. Then the stage 2 update came (20 or so GB "update") and so much changed for the worst. no more in Mission talking between characters. no more trapper (everyone could summon the dome now, like dafuq??) and other stuff that made stage 2 look like a tech demo for me (way worse to legacy in my opinion). only stuff i liked was parnell was now available as medic, which was nice (the assault with the rocket launcher in his shoulder).

and now with legacy modded and "stage 2" also community driven back and also available, i want to ask: which version do you prefer and WHY? o.o

(Also a little side note: imagine 2k was not that greedy shithole and the game was continued until today... no stage 2, but the good things that came with that, like cross overs of character classes. ... could you imagine sunny as assault with her mini nuke cannon? xD or bucket as medic? lazarus as trapper? and way more monsters and sub species of all monsters?... just let me dream, damnt!!!)
