Good idea.

What are the best hunters in each role?
What monsters should I buy?
How to counter X, Y, Z?
What perks should I get first as hunter/monster?
When's the best time to use Bucket's cooldown reset(3)?
Is it better to buy perks or characters?

Daily reminder that both iterations of Val are the best medics in the game and there's zero reason you should play any other medic.

Still not sure how Laz contributed to that game.

WHY?

god damn this guy is the worst hunter.

Parnell is just straight better. I've maxed torvald and I can aim the mortars, but it's such a fucking hassle to aim and not worth the damage.

tourney meta and pubbie meta is different. Tournament fags are generally better at chasing the monster so you can't afford going into damage skills early on, you need mobility.

Yeah, but they just made it easier for the braindeads which means no more stealth no more mindgames. Just turned it into "max distance, eat fast, get fast level, dumpster or die."

Hunting was 90% of the fun of the game and they took it out.

That's something very few people agree with which is why the game died very quickly during the original launch.

>Hunting was 90% of the fun of the game and they took it out.

It was a literal walking sim
It was boring and terrible not "fun"
What was fun about running around the map for 20 minutes?

Oh nothing
That's why the game had less than 200 players before it went free and made changes

>>148693286
>That's something retards who suck at games disagree with
FTFY. I don't play games to appeal to casual braindead masses. I don't play games where players are given medals and ribbons for failing to do something their own basic human physiology could do for them.

I mean christ, hunters were strong as fuck in the base game as long as you could literally use your eyes and split up into groups of two.

Any tips on how to play Wraith in higher levels? Seriously, I'm having a lot of trouble playing her (still winning a lot though I actually need to put in effort now) now that the Hunters aren't completely braindead retards and actually know what they're doing.

I love it how you faggots think that Evolve had "complexity" before

It didn't, it had a ton of time wasting and annoying bullshit

If the team gets to fight the monster AT ALL was on one random faggot who might suck
Literally couldn't win

Stealth was shit because stealth for the monster was so damn easy

It's the same game as before but now matches aren't 30 minutes long and boring

And of course its not as easy for the fucking monster niggers to hide like cunts, but you still can

>Think evolve had complexity
I never said it did, I just said that they took tactics out of the game to make it even easier for the braindead hunters that couldn't figure out the basics of the game, much less figure out baby tier mindgames and needed yet even more lists of options ontop of the already insurmountable plethora already available to find and outpace the monster.

Oh, so CoD is the best game ever then because it always has players. Glad we cleared that up then.

I guess only /vg/ can stop /vg/. It's meme magic. What are the fucking odds that someone from here gets matched with another guy from here considering how large the playerbase right now is.

I want a lamia monster
I want a cat monster
I want a minion monster
I want a space monster
I want a mecha monster

>>148695078
Probably reasonably high when you get closer to high level, since I imagine a lot of the /v/ people that actually play video games probably play video games a shit ton

The chances of you being one of the 15 people who played evolve before it went free are zero, considering you had to pay money for it

Now, I want to ask, is Gorgon good at all? If I want to get any of the monsters, it'd be her.

>>148695383
yes gorgon is good

>>148695383
gorgon is good but she is getting nerfed next patch

Hunters are too bad at this game even at level 25+, I'm about to just be done with the game.

It's cool and all, but people are just so fucking terrible that the first monster that has half of a brain shits all over them.

>Medics don't heal

It hasn't gotten better even at this level so what's the point? I get that competitive teams shit on monsters and all but if they buff monsters their playerbase is just going to evaporate.

I have literally 100% winrate over like 40 monster games and I don't even main the things.

>>148695314
they don't spawn from eggs filled with goo, they teleport into eggs filled with goo.

Don't you fucking dare touch Cabot! Except his dust, that could change into whatever.

>>148695698
I queue with one and two people occasionally. The extra(s) will always underperform.

My winrate is higher with friends, but one hunter not doing their job makes it almost a free win for the Monster. The whole 4 people need to play perfectly to count as one monster thing just doesn't do it for non-competitive, it's just boring at this point because as soon as I notice some one's being garbage I know I'm in for a loss in a few minutes.

>>148695884
>You clearly had a lot of fun
Because as I said, the game was already braindead easy tier for hunters.

If I played against a 4 man stack they would almost always win, because they'd use their abilities and be able to outpace and track me down ez.

But if it wasn't a 4 man, then it was an absolute domination ez.

There was never any gray area about the game, and that's what made it shit. It was either a definite loss or definite win, no close games.

Please keep moving those goalposts though.

>>148695580
that doesn't matter, monster mechas still make no sense since the psychic slugs things from outer space are responsible for the monsters

And now there are

>inb4 there're not

>>148696008
the creatures are "beamed" into the eggs, they don't actually grow from them, they're more like Kala's teleporter pads than actual eggs, and as shown by Kala Non-biological material can be beamed into those eggs. so there's no reason a cyborg-esque monster couldn't be sent in.

>>148696118
You're a pretty good shitposter, I'll give you that.
You're not just arguing with one person, so "moving goalposts" doesn't really apply.
And you're in the minority regarding the hunting being the fun of the game, even here on /v/. It's fair that you have these odd tastes, but it's not so fair that you actually believe them to be superior and that a game that cost tens of millions of dollars to make should cater to an incredibly niche playerbase.

>>148696589
>Removing elements from a game because I can't figure them out is good, instead of making it so they work

Typical /v/ retard mouthbreather, incapable of figuring basic shit out for himself. Thankfully I can't say you ruined Evolve because it was fucked from the start. It got worse, sure, but everyone with half a brain had already abandoned it.

most of the characters are invalidated by the planet scanner & dome time reduction upon getting downed. Defensive-based hunters are now the best because they sustain until the dome goes down due to lost monster health

lazerus is useless because he excels at reviving downed teammates, but if teammates go down you've lost the dome.

cabot's dust has been made useless by planet scanner

kala and bucket lack defense, so they are useless compared to defense characters

parnell and torvald are garbage damage

val & rogue val are so good at sustain there's no reason to play any of the other 4 healers. Val's tranq is phenomenal, rogue val can self sustain like crazy

>>148698008
because it says so in the script

>it's a "someone on your team picked kala and your streak is doomed" episode

>>148698151
Yeah, they didn't think that shit through at all.

All you want to do now is be as defensive as possible, the time it takes for you to do damage is irrelevant because the monster is on a time limit.

I do. There's no point to OC if you're going to default to your usual bodytype and slap some distincyive features on top.

So I never got to play Evolve before Stage 2 so I don't know if the game originally allowed this kind of play.

I've been reading the wiki just out of curiosity for bios and trivia and stuff, and it mentions the monsters stalking the hunters a lot.

Why doesn't Stage 2 allow the monsters to be able to stalk the hunters if they are stealthy enough? I still enjoy the game, but I wish the planet scan didn't make it a gotta go fast simulator only. It would be great to hide on walls as a Gorgon and set traps while watching the hunters go by and have no idea where you are.

>>148700879
Because as you say, the planet scanner removes any trace of search/hunt tension and just turns it into a game of follow.

Had few pretty normal matches, then got matched against a Wraith
What the fuck is wrong with this imbalanced motherfucker????
She just mowed down our whole team at each encounter, and there was no way to avoid it
First she kills the healer with some AOE burst shit and a few attacks, then uses some bullshit slashing combo that instantly downs 2 hunters, and the last guy just can do shit
How is Wraith not considered overpowered compared to the other slow and mediocre damage dealing monsters?
Like seriously, what the fuck?

>>148700879
Felt like an actual hunt, shit was pretty tense and the stakes were high

And that's kinda the problem, you could spend the whole fucking 10 minutes without seeing the monster and he would come out of the wood lvl3 with his dick in his hand
You could see him lvl1 and miss the dome, which mean a wasted cooldown where the monster would be free for a long time
You could also murder the monster on the very first dome, sometimes very easily when you waited for him to evolve to trap him, because evolve consume all armor (Also called "Hold the dome")

It was a great concept, but too "ambitious" and impossible to balance

>>148701836
Where could one find these voice lines?

>>148701278
If a monster knows the map and can juke, it can still drag on. If they have quick perks that allow faster evolving, it's kind of bs honestly. I miss the old stealth. I think if the mechanics remained the same and they made it free everyone would still be okay with it.

>>148705195
Kala works well with hunters that can unload all at once when she takes the armor down. Some will say that sucks since the dome goes down faster, but it would have gone down faster anyways with the Armor timer, and then a little bit of health damage.

Even without the armor reducer, her siren missiles make her hands down the highest damaging support. Teleport pads can also mesh well with a Griffin having sound spikes all around, to hop to and from one part of the map to the other.

Well, the first mutagen wars weren't so grey. The first basilisk soldiers were literally insane monsters, kind of comparable to a goliath or behemoth, but more like impenetrable turtle things.

you have the best traversal. Slow down when the satellite tracks you, then hightail it in a different direction

>>148707583
Web blast is great and pretty much forced hunters to land. Great for getting them with a spider or aciding them. It can also be used while retreating to stall hunters and ground them. Acid is strong and can be used to take out shield drones, traps etc with minimal investment. Always have a spider out. Mimic is pretty bad so feel free free to ignore it.

>Spending 10 minutes without seeing the monster was never fun

you're in the minority defending the planet scanner and the everyone-can-dome mechanic

a lot of complexity of the game was removed and simplified in an already simple game. now we have a dumbed down system where fights are always forced because theres no stealth system

>Spending 10 minutes without seeing the monster was never fun

either you had a bad team or you were bad if it took you 10 minutes every time

>Your retarded trapper missing a dome wasn't fun
balancing games around retards in pubs is why the game died.

retarded teammates will always be a problem. you can still cause losses by doming in a bad position now

>>148700879
Adding onto what other anons said, sneaking up on a hunter and pouncing them was actually significant because the monster used to be able to down pounced hunters very quickly.

Can't have that though, so it was nerfed and now pounce only means shit if somebody is completely separated from their team, and even then you probably won't down them.

>Tfw Feed+movement speed/movement speed/movement speed on Wraith

It's pretty nice

>>148708996
The game was always simple
This complexity is a myth
There was no complexity

The dome relying on ONE idiot on your team for a game to be possible to win is not complexity

The stealth was always easy for the monster and not complex

>planet scanner and the everyone-can-dome mechanic
This is what makes the game actually playable and enjoyable
The planet scanner is completely fine, it gives hunters a sense of direction without revealing the monsters exact location at all times

You can still sneak as the monster, but holy fuck now you'll actually have to fight more than once a game

Matches were boring and too long before, that's a fact

>balancing games around retards in pubs is why the game died.

The game died in literally less than a month when it launched because of these retarded design decisions

The game was not complex
The game was boring and lasted too long

Surprise surprise, the game makes adjustments to fix those things and now its one of the most games on steam

>>148709141
pounce should be fucking removed for the exact same reason Cloak was. It's a toxic game mechanic that FORCES control OUT of the players hands. Slims spore cloud was nerfed to the point it literally DOES NOT FUNCTION because it completely rendered an entire part of the monster unusable.

If you want to throw on a "monster must have taken no damage for 3 seconds in order to stealth pounce" that's fine, because then it actually is a surprise mechanic, not a mechanic that you can just suddenly do in combat to freely chunk 30% of someones health after you pushed them out of LoS of their buddies with an ability.

It's so easy as kraken to vortex lightning strike someone then go straight into a stealth pounce the moment the animation finishes.

or as Goliath to charge someone behind a rock or off a ledge then go straight into a pounce and easily take off 1/4th of their health from the pounce alone.

>>148709951
>I'm a shitter and i want my competitive games to be over simplified.

Leave please.

Who is best trapper?

I want more lore. The dialogue before the fight is better than the gameplay.I really really want an evolve movie but we know that's never going to happen. Kurt Russell as griffin or abe would be so nice. And Jane lynch as lennox.

>>148710521
He's right though, the stealth and solo doming wasn't complex, it was simple as fuck and only served to make games longer.

The community and eventually TRS all agreed that combat is where the game shines, this is the best middle ground between the way it was and just an all out brawl. If you want more complexity play a 4X game.

I agree combat is where it excels. It just feels a little stale right now following tracks or the scanner thing. There isn't really any strategy to catching the monster other than run in this direction. That is the worst part right now and you spend like 5min each game just running. I would like if they could make that a little more interesting at least. It's what is putting most people off the game btw if you read steam reviews.

>Inb4 steam reviews

I want this game to live for a few more months at least you have to appeal to the majority.

>>148710456
>Toxic

Pouncing is fine because it's the "Don't fucking separate from your team" mechanic. It is literally a non-issue otherwise because all it takes is something farting in the general direction of the monster to free someone who was pounced. The damage is also pitiful now. Unless you run into someone being a special kind of stupid, or the other hunters are suffering from excessive retardation, it doesn't even translate into very much damage.

Hunters would be able to do some really stupid shit if the threat of pouncing wasn't present.

>>148711330
I'm a ghostwriter so I write whatever they pay me for

That would actually be a great way to tease a new hunter and monster
I would message the devs but I'm not sure what the best way would be
Maybe their forums or whatever

>>148712180
I'll allow for you to write your book but only if I get my movie.

>>148712175
so cloaking is fine because it's not an issue unless your bad and look away from your target right? same with laz being able to revive bodies in <2s and with no strikes right? Monsters fault for being bad and not sitting on the body.

What's the difference between Wasteland Maggie and Maggie?

Is Wasteland's still that shitty harpoon trap or is it a harpoon gun?

>>148717592
It's basically telling you to shrek one of their guys or fuck up and get two hp bars down. The devs decided to aim for a more combat oriented Evolve, I like it a lot more, quicker games and slightly less bullshit.

Besides it's not like the dome being the way it is stops people from getting crazy winstreaks as monster, you just need to adapt.

God, theres just so much good stuff with these characters

>all the conversations
>all this lore
>all this character building

Its crazy good

Why do they only send 4 people to kill the monsters? Why don't they havr tanks? Why no gunships etc?

>he hasn't heard the dialogue

>>148720452
Play the game nigga, they talk about this stuff

So, what did they learn from the trapped Wraith? Wouldn't Lennox know a thing or two about it considering Shear is her colony?

>>148720883
That their erogenous region is their leftmost tail tentacle.

>>148720696
>>148720723
I mostly play monster, I don't have dialogue

>>148721450
your loss

so are the founders getting the new 4 hunter variations without coughing up keys?

>>148721756
Yes but that's it, we won't be getting the tier 3 ones(if the game lasts that long) I think.

Slim free week fucking WHY

everyone that's playing Slim is awful

4chan still broke?

Which perks for sunny? Reload speed?

why aren't the goddamn periodic rewards half hour things anymore? now they're once an hour rewards or rather the hour starts once you complete one

I'm mostly playing trapper but I'm not getting much in terms of keys per victory/loss. Am I just playing bad? I'm playing Crow right now Gobi a cute

How often should I be throwing mines with blitz markov?

is sunny shit or is it me?

>>148723434

Whenever a dome goes down

I heavily recommend putting them on the edge of ledges because they will fuck up any monster who climbs up here to deal with roaching hunters massively

If there's a small tunnel that can obviously be used to go around the arena or funnel attacks, dump your mines here

Otherwise, put them in a triangle area in the open to "encourage" your teammates to hide here and force the monster to find another target

>>148723537

It's you

Put that drone on a ledge near your team, use your jetpack booster on whoever is getting focused so they can dodge out of here, grenade launcher does as much damage as the anti-material sniper rifle so use it when neither happens

>>148723537
just you

Jack's CC is actually pretty good

it's just his tracking sat is trash

>>148724510
What's his CC? I've seen him like twice as monster.

>>148724549
Just looked it up. That shit is annoying as fuck as wraith.

It makes abduct fizzle and die.

>>148724549

basically a reverse griffin harpoon

>>148723429
They need to buff the amount of keys you get per match, everything costs 5k keys+.
So getting only 30-50 is pretty bullshit.

>>148724510
I might move him up to Tier 2 then. I'd like to get more criticism to make sure I got the list right before I release it on steam and plebbit, so that shitters would stop buying and playing garbage characters and make everyone lose games.

I'm I the only one experiencing horrible connection issues?

His drone is worthless due to dying to a tick of damage and smell gun is useless the only saving grace is his ability to spam which still isn't that great.

>>148724984
Nah my last game froze just as we got the monster trapped, servers are having a panic attack or something.

>>148724357
>>148724510

Jack is fucking God tier but he's probably the hardest trapper to play well.

I also disagree with Cabot because I like him a lot, but you can't pick him for every team comp. Cabot and Lennox (and probably Blitz Markov with a gold beam) is ridiculous damage.

>>148725067
Oh, and I think both Maggies are shit.

>>148725152
My only issue with Maggie is daisy is worthless since she half the time she bugs out while not even fighting.

>>148725049
i't's constantly saying I'm not logged into steam when I clearly am

>>148724357
I'd say laz is more situational. He can either be borderline overpowered or completely worthless. If your team knows how to spread out than he can get the sneaky revive while the monster can't do jack shit.

cant sign in le sigh

>>148725212
She never bugs out when I'm the god damn monster. I fucking hate daisy. The harpoon traps are worthless against wraith though.

Hell the only CC that really works on wraith is Abe's balls crammed up her throat at all times.

>>148725152
Nomral Maggie is fine
Wasteland Maybe deserves to be in not good.

>>148725212
This guys right Daisy is unreliable. rarely does it feel like she is taking the "shortest path".
Flame doggo will sometimes no fight but run back and forth.

Servers dead?

>>148725756
Steam is dead for me.

>>148725802
thought I was the only one, mines dead too.

Adjusted slightly based on your suggestions:
WMaggie and Slim moved to T3.
Jack moved up to T2.

>muh monster is underpowered
No it is not.
>but high play hunters always wins!
That is not a problem.
If you are at "high play", you are ready to retire. Cycle out while new players come in.

>>148727310

all of it goes into the last stage of beam, pretty fucking good
