I love this game. If you find a good group or play with friends it's a blast. However, it's been tough to find a good match. Hopefully this gives the game the boost it needs!

I think it would be nice. Is there already info of what previous buyers will get?
I grabbed one off Amazon for $10, its worth it just to not have to grind unlock 19 characters.
Founders get this:
and this:
Also I think Season pass 1 and 2 content is unlocked for founders who bought it.

Good news. The game might have a good chance on steam with f2p model. There's also not much competion in the genre.
Gamestop.

Yes.
Sublime. Thanks.
In store or online?
I might actually give this game a chance now. I didn't want to buy it at launch because I wasn't sure if it was gonna be worth $60, then when the price dropped I didn't buy it because it was basically dead and I had other things to play.
But I'd be willing to give it a chance for no investment other than time. I'll just treat it like a demo.

can't say that I at all care.
I just wish them the best.
I will always remember watching "Exclusive Interview about Evolve's "Successful" Launch" youtube video and dying laughing.
My friend was so amendment about me getting this game and convincing other people to get the game too as well. Jokes on them cause I didn't find anything redeeming about the game and when the other friends that did play and realize it they were in agreement with me as well.

Power cringe...
I like the one ultra serious line of just 'The content in this game is laughable'. He says it with such gusto.

I'd wait for a bit. Right now the future of the console-versions depends on the success of the PC-version. So far the reception has been cool, but who knows where it'll be in a few weeks?
Fair. I'll keep an eye on everything. Game always interested me but the DLC shit turned me off.
Hope it works out, Evolve is a ton of fun if you can get into it but I know the shitty DLC stuff turned off a lot of people.
Not sure about some of the changes they seem to be going for but I'm also not surprised that they mostly seem to make things easier in general since the game can be intimidating for newer players.

Should be both. In-Store copies are like $10

But will they hav more players than battleborn?
As a Battleborn player with over 140 hours, I am pretty sure even BadRats has more players on PC.
A few of my Battleborn friends are going to be trying out Evolve now, just to play something different.

I thought that it was more that in a super closed environment like a media event the game seemed great because everyone was there together and the idea worked then. But it wasn't an experience you could replicate outside of a closed event.

Ill defend this until I die
I feel this game was definitely worth it at full price. Or at most for some people, $40. The unique levels combined with all the combinations of hunters/monsters can make for countless combinations. Even if it is the same four hunters, fighting the same monster, everyone keeps their roles, in the same level, tactics can change based on geography and location, which can dramatically alter the battle. I love this game so much. I really dislike seeing the hate this game gets, because I feel a lot of people jumped on the train and didnt give the game a fair try. Even though it has guns, you do not play it like any other shooter out there. Because there isnt anything else like this out there. Just because you get the Medic doesnt mean its not fun. Heck, being the only person keeping your team just barely away from the brink of death while whittling down the Monster is awesome. Just because you are the monster it doesnt mean it isnt fun. Ive rolled over countless teams as a level 1 monster, its all about how you attack the environment, which is the hidden sixth player in the game. Learn the role, and you will enjoy it.
I hate to see it go f2p, but if it breathes new life into the franchise, then I am all for it. And for the record, I have the vanilla game, and the Ultimate Edition too. Ive spent decent money on this game, and I have never felt ripped off in any way.

I've had many, many amazing moments that could be considered E3 highlight reel material. It can happen no doubt, people just need to not play like idiots, and coordinate with their team i feel.
