Evolve [closed beta]

[J4MES OX4D 10,474]

If you check your Steam library in the client; you'll see that Evolve is available to install for closed beta participation. I think this is running until Monday. 

 

I also think this game will be a disastrous flop

I played the alpha and thought it was pretty dumb. I like the concept but it doesn't seem to be implemented well.

I played a little of the first beta, it's a nice game but as for longevity, we'll see..I'm downloading this now for another go

30 minutes and I was sick of it

 

The combat feels so bland and boring when compared to the fast, fun, frenzied and funny mechanics we see in L4D2. It just feels like a shallow FPS lacking in content from the off. I can't see many sticking at it long and I don't think many people will grind out being a monster game by game as that aspect on your own is a yawnfest. £35-50 is a ludicrous price too - £15 tops and I'd still struggle to justify a purchase. 

 

If only Turtle Rock were still operating with Valve and the HL dev kits. Shame Valve don't like the number 3 really - Half Life 3, Portal 3, TF3 and L4D3
