>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?
http://www.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.

Okay, so should I get Meteor Goliath or Kraken? All I have is Goliath other than flavour of the week, and whilst Gorgon and last week's wraith were fun, OGoliath feels depressingly weak. I don't even know why.

Crow is me. Literally me. No other character can come close to relating to me like this. There is no way you can convince me this is not me. This character could not possibly be anymore me. It’s me, and nobody can convince me otherwise. If anyone approached me on the topic of this not possibly being me, then I immediately shut them down with overwhelming evidence that this character is me. This character is me, it is indisputable. Why anyone would try to argue that this character is not me is beyond me. If you held two pictures of me and this character side by side, you’d see no difference. I can safely look at this character every day and say “Yup, that’s me”. I can practically see this character every time I look at myself in the mirror. I go outside and people stop me to comment how similar I look and act to this character. I chuckle softly as I’m assured everyday this character is me in every way. I can smile each time I get out of bed every morning knowing that I’ve found my identity with this character and I know my place in this world. It’s really quite funny how similar this character is to me, it’s almost like we’re identical twins. When I first saw this character, I had an existential crisis. What if this character was the real me and I was the fictional being. What if this character actual became aware of my existence? Did this character have the ability to become self aware itself?

Fucking scalies. How could anyone get off to the idea of removing a wraith's armor and licking her massive body all over, nibbling her neck and kissing her long tentacles? Only another monster would think about her cute mouth and tongue wrapped around a thick cock slick with her saliva, pumping in and out of her mouth until it erupts, the cum more than enough for her to reach stage 3.
The idea of thick viscous semen overflowing, dribbling down her jaw over her busty chest, her big claws scooping it all up and watching her suck it off is just horrible. You're all a bunch of sick perverts, thinking of spreading her smooth veiny thighs, cock poised at the entrance to her pure, tight, virginal pussy, and thrusting in deep as a whimper escapes her teeth which are slippery with cum, while her large body shudders from having her cherry taken in one quick stroke.
It is truly nasty how you'd run your hands all over her body while you violate her, feeling her breast ridges hardening against your tongue as you lick her chest and her neck, savoring the scent of her skin and sweat while she trembles from the stimulation and as she reaches her climax, hearing her cry out softly as she has her first orgasm while that cock is buried deep inside her, pulsing violently as an intense amount of hot cum spurts forth and floods through her freshly-deflowered pussy for the first time, filling her womb only to spill out of her with a sickening squelch. And as you lie atop her flushed body, she sighs breathlessly and her claws dig into your back as she feels your cock hardening inside her again.
You're all sick in the head.

So I have to ask what is the main issue with Kala's viability?

I understand the meta right now is more about survivability, so is that it really? You can normally (with capacity perks) hold the beam long enough to do enough damage to drop the dome like a normal fight.

I guess in the case that the monster either chooses to stay and fight when its armor comes back up or run without fear of chip damage is the main factor correct?

I would still put her low, but at least in the NOT GOOD tier instead of I WANT TO LOSE. I don't see how different she is from Cabot's "Burn down with damage" gameplay. They both seem to suffer from the same issues.

>>
>>150330031

The monster tier rankings are all fucked up, man.

I'll make this easier: the more mobile a monster is, ie. the better their traversals and movement speed, the higher rank they are. In high ranked play that is.

So it's meteor goliath > goliath > wraith > kraken > elder kraken > gorgon > behemoth
>>
>>150342575
>The better their traversals and movement speed
Then why is Goliath on top?
>>
>>150342789
Gollies have two pseudo-traversal attacks on top of their traversals. With full speed perks, you're a fucking ghost that only engages on your terms.
>>
>>150343115
Even using them, he still seems slower.
What can fucking beat a Gorgon angling and timing the traversals just right to sanic through the map? It does however quickly reveal you, which is why I prefer the stealth/speed Wraith.

>>150343748
Your heavily reliant on your trapper in this case.

If your Assualt just pick Markov or Parnell. Honestly Markov has the added bonus of chain lightning hitting the Banshee mines. I find the mines are the biggest damage the Kraken brings to the table.

Medic? Val's tranq sniper rifle is incredibly useful. It makes the Kraken sink like a stone.

Trapper? Griffon or Able are probably the best. Abe's grenades make him sink and can be used to set up slow fields on the juke points. Griffon can pull the monster down. >>150343940 recommends Jack but after playing quite a number of games as Jack he isn't that great. At best you'll keep him on the ground a couple of seconds but when he gets up into the air its incredibly hard to get your repulsor to get them down. His gun sucks at shooting Banshee mines as well.

Support? Hank of course for overall survivability but I actually like Bucket in that match up. Sentry drones can be real good on keeping hits up on the Kraken and Mechanized recharge is useful if either your or the Medic are getting focused.

No one knows the true meaning of antifun until they've experienced gorgons who max spider trap and know how to use it.

>>150347687
desu I dont have much experience with Crow but in theory yes he's a good choice.

I think Abe and Griffon are still the best choices. Abe can set the field up so he can just do a fuck ton of damage and Griffon's harpoon controls the Kraken a lot more. Crow falls inbetween that.

>>150350861
I can see where he's coming from though. Due to blind picks its really easy to choose a character that can't do shit. Its sadly what reinforces the whole Val/Hank/Griffon/Markov comp. No matter what, those characters work on every single monster.

It creates this awkward situation where due to balance purposes they HAVE to round each of the characters out so they dont get fucked over completely, buffing one thing but usually nerfing what makes them unique (ie Lennox losing damage on punches but getting a better gun).

True. Its decently easy to get her stacks up (Because despite being close range she doesnt have to be THAT close and has roughly 2 seconds to set up her next swing). Sad that Blitz Markov got fucked in that regard. Lennox has time to build her stacks while with Blitz its incredibly easy to lose connection and have to start all over again.

I myself got into a weird game.
>Team is Abe, Lennox, Val, Tech Hank (me)
>Vs. Kraken
I was the only one doing damage that fight. Now don't get me wrong, I know Lennox sucks in that fight but she barely did anything
>Abe spends the whole time in dome firing tracking dart. Not one stasis grenade and once in a blue moon he did bring out the shotgun, he would miss and switch back to dart. Abe would always miss dart when out of dome so it was tough to keep track of monster.
>Lennox would blindly fly around. I dont think she swung one punch even when in range. Would sometimes shoot her gun, missing before just going back to wandering aimlessly around
>Val never tranqed once
I would slowly whittle down the Krakens shield only for it to run around the dome like a bitch and channel its armor. Each dome was torture of the Kraken not killing anyone due to being incompetent, and me being the only source of damage. Eventually the Kraken rubbed two braincells together and realized that me and the medic were keeping the other two dumbfucks alive and in a surprise twist had grounder which allowed him to eventually down us all.

It just DRAGGED ON. At some point in dome I just stopped and watched the absurdity of it

>>150362742
I've been experimenting with 'indirect damage gorgon' where you abuse spidertrap, mimic and acid spray. It's kinda shit against good players. Mimic making you immobile lets double damage roll in.

>>150363102
I don't use it as much as acid or web true, but it does exceptionally well for doing burst damage or pushing people back while regenerating armor. It's starting to account for a quarter of my damage or so.

How would you detect if someone is aimbotting, or can you just not do that? I had two games now with a crow who was taking perfect headshots no matter what I was doing, mid transversal at an awful angle, flying across the map 300m away, nope, perfect headshots every time with zero misses

There's really no way to be 100% sure for the less obvious cheats, just from guesses that he's making impossible shots.

>>150366772
Perfect headshots all the time is not possible.
The chances are higher with Kraken but still.
>>
>>150367308
it's actually a lot easier than you'd expect on crow due to the fact his charged shots have no spread and his uncharged shots have very little spread. Especially if you're someone who specializes in FPS's, reaching a 85% headshot rate or higher is pretty easy compared to most other fps games since the monsters are huge.

I can easily hit 75% headshot rate with charged shots, I don't ever use charged shots in dome though, only on the chase where's it's pretty easy since you can hit them during traversals.

Regardless, from all the streams I saw him playing crow (last weeks) his accuracy rate with charged shot in head was lower than 50%.

Nobody here honestly believe you have 75% natural without aimbot.

Most noticeable buffs this next patch:
Slim (Need less hits for heal burst but has 2 less shots in the shotgun, potentially better at healing then before if you aim well)
EMET (like holy shit 300 heal burst up from 180)

Nerfs:
Lennox doing less damage on her punches

Torvald is getting a slight buff of 1 more shotgun dmg per pellet i believe.

But as a hunter player they should know its REALLY hard to win with a bot hunter on your team. Its not fun and you know that unless the monster royally fucks up, your more than likely going to lose at the end. If assault switched then you might have a chance since there is less pressure on assault besides doing damage, but medic swapping over is just a big fuck you.

Markov I find Damage/Capacity/Capacity is best. The longer your hitting with your lightning gun the more damage your doing ESPECIALLY if your playing B.Markov.

Its decent on Hyde as you aren't super reliant on any perks for the most part (besides reload speed for more gas grenades.) and you add a fuck ton of dots. Also makes his minigun a little more threatening when your forced to use it.

>>150386757
shields are just way too important. each charge of the shield generator on hank can stop roughly 500 points of damage. That's 500 less points of damage that a medic has to heal.

Sunny is about 585? or 600. I can't remember due to all the nerfs she's gotten.

Due to how the new dome system works, being able to stay alive is way more important than dealing damage.

I'm having more fun on an alt account playing only the monster side where I feel far less pressure since I care less if I win or lose. Haven't lost yet and have had enough luck to avoid hackers and I check profiles just in case. It's so easy to juggle these niggles with either goliath. They almost never catch you in stage 1 (not even using any feed speed perks because I barely have any perks and I don't know any super optimal paths, just run and feed my fat ass when I find enough to eat in one quick feeding session) and you can normally just steamroll them in stage 2. And so many shitters try to fight and even dome you when they are alone so you get free kills/strikes.
>>
>>150387429
today I played a game vs a DR amped MG
he wasn't great and struggled against us in fights (as in he got maybe like 2 strikes total before stage 3 endgame) but the thing was that he didn't receive enough damage because the assault was pretty shitty and MG is way too beefy as is and he had stacked DR on top of that

I did my thing as trapper and he was darted for most of the match, and Hank and Val did their thing but he kept getting away after each dome until he got to stage 3 and still had shitloads of HP
>>
>>150387506
I used to take 1 point in aftershock

it's not worth it since you don't even want to be close enough to use it, you want to keep your distance and spam spam spam while evading the assault trying to get close or any orbitals

1-2-1 in others, 2 being banshee mines since they are nice and spammable

then max either banshee or lightning first (banshee first if you are already good at landing the lightning), then max the rest (not aftershock) if you get to stage 3

guess if I see a lot more krakens now than I did before, the flying spamming ones that most assaults can't properly damage so you are actually better off using cabot or kala to either boost damage or do direct hp damage and niggernell as assault

He only works well if your team plays aggressively. The goal is to damage the monster before it does damage to you. If the assault is the worst player on the team, Cabot is shit.

playing monster on my alt and I wonder if I should buy a gold perk (got none right now so I am thinking cdr) or get kraken first? I really want to train kraken but dem gold perks doe, I need at least one level in a decent one and 16% cdr is noice

playing on my alt the first time I actually had to even try was when I was against 3 bots and 1 player

the EMET bot kept shooting me with deadly accuracy with those damn missiles and spammed burst like no tomorrow and bot techank could actually get a few hits in with the orbital

it wasn't even close but still, I could have toyed with human players but the bots were doing actual damage to me in stage 2 no less
>>
>>150395483
if that happens, you can open your steam profile by hitting ESC > Player options > steam profile and copy the 'Join Game' address url by right clicking on it and selecting the Copy Link option. You can then paste that somewhere and people can join off that link. should take maybe 30-45 seconds. You could perhaps try posting it in this general and having us hop in. We're probably better than bots and it doesn't add people to your friends list so don't be shy.

fire and forget. he can't fly through obstacles, but can go around them. it's best to send him out ahead a bit to where you think the monster will be since he has travel time. CD is pretty short, so spam that shit.
>>
>>150396967
Shoot him down one path to make sure the monster doesn't try to juke, and go down the other. Try to send him somewhere there isn't a lot of terrain for his retarded bird brain to get confused with.
>>
>>150396967
just don't "shoot" him towards rock walls, try the gaps or a different direction you think the monster might head to when you are checking the other path

Gobi only flies in a streight line and illuminates wildlife and monster when he spots it. Use Gobi to scout dead ends or check any direction you want so you dont waste your time to run there.

it will probably come out in the store at some point, pretty sure they said that there will be a frew exclusive skins that won't appear in the store and might eventually be founder exclusives like savage goliath or gained some other way in events

Low level monster play is not as fun as I thought it'd be. It doesn't even teach me proper monster play. Can't even brag about winning every match because it takes next to no effort at all, only an absolute shitter would do that. This is quite literally too fucking easy.

At least he gave you a chance. My latest hacker was a lennox that killed me in 10 hits into the first dome. Literally in the time it took me to use all of my abilities for a single combo, I was dead. It's like they think if they don't use a hack to win immediately, they wont get caught. But with TRS's handling of hackers I don't blame them for milking this.
>>
>>150402097
and there went my streak
got my first suspicious player/cheater that was doing more damage than normally as waggie and was flying ridiculously high close to the top of the dome and then just disappeared from my sight, probably teleporting elsewhere but I was already running away at that point
no wonder they were the only hunter with any kind of win streak in the match and made a comment about anus preparing at the start of the match

I didn't use a hack, pubs are just easy as fuck, you can literally lose them around a rock.

Afk and die to hunters 20 times in a row to get keys while I watch a movie.
The one game where I decide to play, I die before the hunters even drop out of the ship, before I even finish eating the corpse at the start, because a hacker with a huge win streak killed me somehow.

Abe doesn't need to aim to slow the monster down. Crow's slow is more spammable.

So I just get to lose from character select because developers didn't think this through? How about 2 hunters lock in, you get to see their picks as monster and they can't change anymore, but then monster's pick is visible to the hunters and they have 2 last characters to pick.

Get a mic and order your team to split into two to catch the monster in a pincer.

Then every team with a brain will have their trapper pick Abe and their support pick Hank since they are viable against any monster. Once they see the monster pick, they'll select the appropriate assault and medic.

This game is honestly unplayable. Out of 5 of us that have been playing this game, I'm the only one that's even moderately decent. It's quite literally unwinnable match over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over, and it doesn't get better.

They've played as much as me, so it's not like they're new. And the thing is I'm not even bitching about my friends sucking. I'm wondering how in the fuck it wasn't obvious that Monsters were too easy to play in comparison to hunters?

A monster is basically the equivalent of 4 hunters working together perfectly, all part of a single hivemind that doesn't let one of them make a mistake.

Not a single one of my friends can survive the monster targeting them. At all. Ever. Neither can pubs for that matter.

I'm level fucking 46 and people seriously don't fucking do their jobs yet. Medics almost don't heal for shit. Supports don't save the person getting targeted. Trappers waste their scan so we get to the middle of the map without a scan and the monster jukes for free. Assaults have autism levels so high that they manage to barely hurt the monster when they do like quadruple everyone's damage.

This game is honestly cancer at this point and I fully understand why the playerbase evacuated like a nuke just assplowed their city.

After some point I've started to think you people just aren't real, either that or you're doing actual real-deal misinfo shit.

I mean not even just in this game, in a few really, where there'll so often be "EVERYONE'S BAD FOREVER" diatribes, then meanwhile most of my games go pretty alright with the complete and total shitshows absolutely being a thing, but not anywhere near as often as you'd imply.
>>
>>150445734
I think I was a bit confused because his gripes seemed all over the place.
First he complained about his friends being shit, but then saying he's not complaining about his friends being shit.
Then he says the monster is basically as strong as a team of perfectly synced hunters.
And in the end he goes on about people losing because they're not doing their jobs because they're shit.

What IS the point of this post?

You're probably picking shit characters, or you and your friends are just shit.
I've seen plenty of shitters that are around your level.
Of course it could always be pic related.
>>
>>150446171
One person being worthless on your team is an automatic loss against 40+ monsters.

No contest whatsoever. Medic is underhealing? People die. Support isn't saving(or isn't able to) people when the monster chimps out of them? People die. Trapper isn't CCing? People die. Trapper is wasting his scan? Monster evolves for free. Assault isn't doing damage? Monster gets to focus people for too long. People die.

This isn't about the effectiveness of on paper hunters vs. monsters, this is about how weak links are uncarriable to the point that the moment you notice some one being bad you can actually leave the match and save yourself 10 minutes. And monsters never have to deal with some one being garbage on their team, they're operating at maximum effectiveness permanently.

Garbage design that shows in shining colors when you look at a steam chart.
>>
>>150447152
No, perfect teams (Val, Hank, Griffin, Markov) will still lose because there's too much variation in hunter skill and how the team is only as good as their worst member, not their best.

Shit is genuinely unplayable at this level. One of the roles that I'm not playing is going to underperform, guaranteed.

If I could rewrite one thing about Kala, I'd make it so that she was infected with monster DNA rather than intentionally injecting herself with it. It makes her discomfort with her appearance more understandable and makes the inevitability that she'll turn into a monster more tragic rather than "Ugh just turn so we can get it over with".

Nah, go try hunter out monster only shitter.

You might be surprised how instantaneously you lose when a single person on your 4 man team isn't up to par. You refuse to notice how bad the hunters are as Monster, trust me, I played Monster up to like level 20 before it got boring.

Then again you probably won't be surprised because you'll ignore it to stay in your happy autistic world where you're the best monstah evah :--DDDD

Val/Hank/Griffon/Markov gets so boring. Mix it up a little for gods sake. I think for the most part everyone isn't going to be playing at a level where its a complete deal-breaker.

What is it about Meteor Goliath that makes it so much better than regular Goliath?

Meteor Goliath just fucks hunter teams up from level 1.
>>
>>150454913
Dot damage makes it so even when they ragdoll away they keep taking damage which means the medic has more work to do especially when they get focused and support shielding is slightly less efficient.
>>
>>150454913
He deals almost the same damage as Goliath, but all his attacks apply a DoT that can fuck up a team that has a medic that isn't paying attention.

Is that the only difference between the two? A DoT? Kraken and Elder Kraken have differences even with the skill they share, lightning strike. It's always a Moliath that gives me trouble, never a regular one.

I think moliath is supposed to have less health/armor but has wider attacks and a dot to all his stuff but I don't remember it exactly.

Goliath is Ryu, Moliath is Akuma basically.

>>150450462
This. I play hunters about 60% and monster 40% and I can confirm that monster only players are completely delusional.
Ask any monster main only player to play hunter and they will be like "sure, but only if my team consists of level 50 people who are on skype and know what they are doing", so they basically admit that the pubs they crush are so lopsided that they would refuse to even play on that side.

I probably like Hyde the most even if they nerfing him. Of course all the hunters are pretty good except Torvald and Kala everything about them I hate.
>>
>>150462072
Torvald unfortunately falls into the category of "Cool Character, Shitty Gameplay"
>>
>>150462331
I get that he is trying to be a strong man but it gets annoys especially if you are a medic since he will bitch that you are healing him too much. Crow is similar in a manner but isn't as bad as him.
>>
>>150462507
To each their own. Crow is good too.
>>
>>150461412
Emet :D

Realtalk though, probably Griffin. He's just so chill and friendly, and he never has any banter that isn't really mean or whatever and he seems to get along fine with everybody. Next up I'd say Abe, he's a bit more rowdy than Griffin and he has that scoundrel vibe, but that's part of what makes him likeable.
>>
>>150462331
>>150462507

Torvald is probably the most interesting character on the time in my opinion, and I really like him and want to play him for that reason even if he isn't that great. I'm gonna buy him tomorrow after his minor buff.

Just think about the shit he's been through though - he was mauled and probably almost eaten alive by a monster, and he probably watched a number of his crewmates and friends suffer the same fate but worse. On top of everything, he no longer has a dick. He probably doesn't need to eat or sleep or anything. He's the ultimate Punished Hunter.
>>
>>150466410
I feel sorry for him doesn't mean I have to like the guy. Just compared to the rest he easily gets out done more then just game play wise. But I will agree Kala is worst then him.

I'm struggling with Kraken.

Against a random team comp, I can kind of hold my own, but he travels so slowly that I often feel like I don't have time to eat before the hunters are on me again. Against something like Markov/Val/Sunny/Crow, forget it. I may as well roll over and die.

What can I do differently? I don't have max level cooldown perks yet, so I'm usually going Feed Speed/Cooldown/Cooldown, but I feel like my burst just isn't fast or hard enough to combo down a healer before they heal back up to max, not to mention being super slow once the dome comes down. Any advice?

You have to manage your ability usage more effectively. Almost always go for the medic first unless it's a Hank, and if it's Sunny like you said you're gonna want to kill her drone. Use Vortex to knock the asshole hunters around and then in that knockack, toss a lightning strike and some banshee mines. Always remember to use your autoattack in the air.

Another thing, putting your back against a surface (the dome for instance) and traversaling back while hugging it while send you up high.

However I too feel your pain. Usually it's a fucking Abe and if they find me, it's gg because I can never create enough distance between the hunters and myself to feed. His traversals feel so fucking slow, and if you're flying too much or too high you're a huge target and easy to spot.

It really is the traversals. I didn't know that about having your back to the fine though, thank you.

I know his traversals need to be a little flower since he fucking flies, but comparing him to even behemoth, he just feels slow to escape.

By the time you actually need it again it will have reloaded.
It gives a speedboost to the tracker.
Some monsters leave fake tracks in one direction at the beginning while heading in another direction.
There's IS nothing wrong with using it the moment you can start running with the speedboost, shitter. It's not like it takes a billion years to reload.

It's a small touch, but I like Abe's tinkerer aspect. You expect a character like him to be be "book dumb, street smart" but he's more than that. Between fixing Markov's jetpack and Parnell's suit, it adds something to him character-wise and give opportunities for hunters to talk about their tech.

Learn to juke around pillars/small objects and up/down cliffs. Don't be afraid to pop your speed boost in the dome if you think it'll help. Constantly shoot the floor near yourself to heal, and with Caira specifically take Reload/Rocket perks. If the monster is half-decent at his role, you best pray you got matched with a Hank or Sunny.

The trick is to wait for the patch that buffs EMET

Other than that, spam buoys that heal hunters around them like RVal passive. When you healburst every buoy will also burst, even if its still a grenade and mid-air.
His weapon is maybe the most comfy to use in Evolve.

Unlike other medics who have to decide between 'reloadin', 'capacity' or 'class ablity cooldown' (increase their primary or secondary healing) EMET can go for the cooldown to improve his effectiveness

Honeslty everything about laz is so countered and shitty it's pathetic, all in the name of "we don't want laz to be too toxic".
But they are completely fine with pub hunters getting stomped endlessly in a row, they just need to git gud.

Laz is so bad he is in his own tier, the worst hunter in the game. Yet the balance team said with confidence on stream that "he is perfectly good and viable as he is right now"

They don't play their own game. I manage to do okay with Laz only because I run cool down perks just to spam my heal while shooting and giving the team a damage boost. That is the only decent thing about him everything else is shit and needs to be reworked.
>>
>>150494198
Tier 2/3 are class ability cooldown for perks. his healing burst is going from 180 > 300 for healing, and 4 > 6s for cooldown. Full ability cooldown is 25% which equals 1 heal burst every 4.5s for 300 health. That's about roughly equal to caira's healing from her heal grenades. then you get the free tickle heals from the buoys which is 180 every 4.5s.

This means you can endure a lot of fucking damage if you have a defensive support and you have the BEST self-sustain over time of any medic since medic isn't penalized for his self-heals.

Lets just sum things up,

In 1 update they:

Straight nerfed Laz by ruining his core mechanic, being able to remove strikes on death. He was already bad, now he's unfathomably awful.
Then they nerfed his damage.
Then they indirectly nerfed him with the changes to the drop ship.
Then they acknowledge that they were fully aware of how this would affect Laz, and that it was a compromise they knowingly committed to in order to fix balance issues elsewhere in the game.
Then, that very same week they make Laz, a medic that they have acknowledged to be incredibly underpowered, a hunter that is known by the majority of the community to be fundamentally broken, they make him the FREE TO PLAY FUCKING ROTATION MEDIC.
Just think about that for a moment, try to comprehend the level of intense stupidity that would be required for something like this to slip under the radar.
Then they declare Laz to be perfectly fucking viable on a live stream.
Seriously, this goes beyond simple mistakes. This is either willful ignorance, or just plain old fashioned bad fucking design.
Someone at TRS needs to be fired, because this is not the first time they have fucked up this hard.

How does Hyde deal with Kraken? Seems like so far in any match I've gone up against one, all it has to do is just fly in the opposite direction away from me and throw that "pushback" move it has at me if I ever happen to get in close. Grenades don't help too much since it'll just fly above/around them.

he has one of the better alt weapons of all the assaults (Parnell's got the best one) especially within dome range - once the monster is too far the accuracy drops hard

Is that really the best strategy then? I've tried doing that and typically it just makes my teammates upset when they see me and they start asking why I'm not using my primary.
>>
>>150499345
Tell your teammates that the flamethrower is short range and that some damage is better than no damage.
>>
Is Celerity ever worth it?
>>
>>150499661
In my experience no
>>
>>150499345
then your teammates are retarded

there is absolutely no way for you to keep up with a flying and shitball spamming kraken with just the flamethrower, he will be almost constantly out of range in most domes
>>
>>150474654
tfg will be back soonTM with the technical test in the next couple of weeks.
As a warning though, we're one giant circlejerk where everyone knows each other for two years and we're all in discord together basically every day.
>>
>>150499345
and his minigun works really well with any weakspots, flamethrower doesn't benefit from them
>>
>>150499345
>>150499495
the flamethrower is nowhere near as short range as it looks when playing hyde. you should try to stay behind/to the side of the kraken while riding the edge of your range. do not be afraid of using dashes to stay/get in range. when the flamer is out chuck a grenade if you can hit it and take a few potshots with your minigun, be on flamer as much as possible. I take bronze swap speed and both poison perks and never have any issue staying in flamer range against any of the monsters, especially kraken. if you can't keep on the monster as hyde you're either bad or the dome is bad.
>>
>>150499661
nope, they hit hunter base movespeed at the launch of stage 2 and they didn't buff celerity to compensate for it.

When will this MEME STOP!?
Pubs are getting destroyed by a huge margin, why are they only trying to help out monsters be dominant at literally all skill levels, while hunters have to get fucked from low level all the way to high level, where the win% evens out.
>>
>>150503276
>where the win% evens out.
kek, monster gets shit on in high level, if you lose to anything besides maybe a good Kraken or Gorgon, your team is fucking trash.
>>
>>150503276
because thanks to the difference in skill cielings for monster and hunters you can't have a balanced game outside of high level play where everyone is essentially skill capped.

the only way to have the game balanced at all levels is if the game had skill brackets where stats are different to compensate for player incompetence and there's too many flaws with a system like that.
>>
>>150503626
Do you actually watch the tournaments and scrims?

>>150503679
Yeah you are right, better balance for the 1% rather than 99%.
Just as long as you understand that if you balance for the 1% of players, only those players will stay and the player count will reflect that.
>>
>>150503626
meteor and kraken are currently the two most op monsters.

>>150503958
Just like evolve stage 1 where it only had 100 players on each day. that's the effect of balancing for 1% of your population.
>>
>>150503958
>Do you actually watch the tournaments and scrims?

There are no tournaments, scrims all go the same way (monster getting shit on)
>>
>>150502946
lol that's actually true
like
even if you find yourself a premade team ready to kill some monsters
you still will be destroyed and even get fewer keys and xp(?)
>>
>>150503958
>>150504112
how would you propose balancing a game where the weakest player on a team determines the outcome?
>>
>won a match against a goliath while micromanaging Waggie and Lazarus
wew. Good thing it was a goliath.
>>
>>150504112
>Just like evolve stage 1 where it only had 100 players on each day. that's the effect of balancing for 1% of your population.
Pretty much. They have learned nothing of their failures.

>>150504170
>There are no tournaments, scrims all go the same way (monster getting shit on)
Nice to know you don't watch them because I have seen plenty of scrims where the monster wins

>>150504594
Three ways come to mind.
1)Balance for the 99% so that pubs will have an easier time so at least there is a bigger player base and later down the line tighten the balance back.
2)Give a system where people get some kind of boost that varies based on skill level. But this is lazy and ultimately bad.
3) Make monsters more skill based and make it so there is more punishment for fucking up as a monster. Right now monsters don't get punished for their mistakes as heavily as hunters do. Not only is it only 1 person instead of 4 people who have do not fuck up all game. But monsters can fuck up and get away with minimal punishment.
This is the best solution, since bad monsters would be easier to beat by bad hunters and pubs, good monsters would dominate through skill and so on.

Here is the solution TRS chose: Balance for the 1% and hope the 99% rest of pubs just each shit and suffer through it and h-h--h-opefully they wont quit the game.
>>
>>150504594
Well at least monsters shouldn't be that strong. Monsters never take that more effort and communications in their games like hunters do. Good monster just need to know what he's doing to achieve victory. On the other hand hunters need fucking BTFO for the entire match to make some difference. And they still will be raped for ANY mistake. Or just because they facing mg or kraken.

TRS is actually trying to balance the best they can with their premade system.
It seems a decent solution to me.

then even moderately skilled hunters just shit on monsters and all the casual monsters quit, which causes all the casual hunters to quit because there's nobody to play against and queue times take forever
>2
like you said, this is just bad.
>3
raising the skill cieling on monster without making bad monster players even worse doesn't seem possible.
>>
>>150498785
>>150499012
Because you are doing it wrong. The time is on your side not his. Just stay ranged with your team, scatter enough to be able to dodge his attack while not getting group damage and play ranged game. Sure you may be be never even chip his health in a first dome, but who cares, time is on your side, next dome will have longer time and health damage limit for monster and eventually he will have to engage.

Do not engage on his terms, make HIM engage on yours.

Setting manually a variable on each skill level in hopes of bringing the power level to a more even playing field is sign of a newbie programmer.
It kinda works, but needs to be manually adjusted at each level.

Instead you should just make the monster skill variable effect the outcome more, which is the core of the issue right now.
Hunter skill dictates the outcome a lot, if you are shit you are getting stomped hard and if you are good and the other 3 people are good then you are doing good, the skill floor and skill ceiling are both higher.

Monster is the exact opposite and the core of the problem, it skill floor is very low so it's easy to get lots of power for nothing early on, but at high level there is no skill ceiling to reach for.

>>150506036
Spot the monster main only. Clearly you haven't experience the retardation of pub hunters first hand.
>>
>>150505173
>>150505837

>Give a system where people get some kind of boost that varies based on skill level. But this is lazy and ultimately bad.
>nerf monster in low levels
>nerf premades in high levels

The devs have already applied a "solution" like this, I can't remember where they posted it but one of them said that premades get hidden nerfs and so do high skill monsters fighting pubs.

It's completely egregious.
>>
>>150506404
we already knew that
>>
>>150506350
I play mainly hunter and have experienced the retardation of pubs, I've also experienced the retardation of monsters. you clearly haven't seen the power of a premade, even if it's mediocre.

How the hell am I supposed to use Griffin properly?
When I hook sometimes the monster can block monster traversal and movement abilities, but sometimes it doesn't do shit.

>>150509350

She's the first character who is completely unable to directly attack anything, other that with her field DoT.
Does this mean she won't be able to free teammates from toads and plants? I wouldn't put it passed TRS. They can fuck up anything.
>>
>>150510782
>>150511713
whoops that was submitted early.
They're confirmed to stack, her 3 is flat damage reduction like assault shield, and that her 4 is a HoT and DoT if the monster is in range. No cooldown timers or capacity adjustments are known.
>>
>fighting an MGoliath
>Lennox uses only her autocannon the entire time
Is there a reason for this or are they just terrible?
>>
>>150511252
But, but if you have an elite swat team on mics playing as hunters, then the monster is statistically bit weaker, you see, it's all fair :D
>>
>>150513005
Tell them to use the lance and ground pound with chat or mic

>>150511757
harpoons only work when the monster is trying to go away from you. if you're not behind them it don't work.

You need to be able to calculate the trajectory speeds as the Kraken. Good hunters can dodge your large attacks, but you still have your free balls that they can't possibly avoid.
The biggest challenge is getting line of sight. If they take cover, you might have to get uncomfortably close.
