@2K GAMES
Okay ehmm listen, first things first: I’m German AND probably slightly stupid so I’d appreciate you guys ignoring any occurring errors within my English grammar and or the spelling. Cool, thanks.
Let’s cut to the chase here real quick.
I’m a big fan of Evolve and we gathered a little community of like, 45 people that actively play Evolve which is basically one tenth of the usual number of people playing Evolve on the PC which is cool and sad at the same time.
We even have a steam community group and stuff but never mind that’s not what I wanted to tell ya.
You probably noticed this is becoming a rather long text so let’s come to the appreciating thingy again, I’d highly appreciate someone actually reading this since I tried to get in touch with you guys pretty often before, twitter or twitch, you call it.
I mostly get ignored which I can understand due to the massive amount of massages game developers and publishers probably receive. So we’re cool here. No hard feelings.
Let’s cut to the chase, again: I have questions.
Can you believe that? As I mentioned before, I spend a lot of time playing Evolve so far, and most of my friends did, too. For me it’s like 700 hours now which isn’t super much I know but hey I’m a full time working human being.
I’d spend more time playing your game if I could.
I get distracted easily, sorry for that, let’s cut to the chase again: Haven’t you noticed that matchmaking is terrible in Evolve?
I mean damn, you spend more time in matchmaking than actually hunting monsters.
The server stability is really bad, me and a lot of my friends get kicked or disconnected from the game on a daily basis, sometimes the whole team.
And guess what, you get a penalty for that and you even lose points in the rank system.
This can’t be a thing, but it is.
I tried to point this out so many times, yet never received an answer of you guys.
So please tell me, are you aware of that? Because literally EVERY pc player IS. So it’s hard to believe that you are not. Please don’t think I want to shitstorm your game, not at all, I care for the game because I flippin’ love it.
You created something fresh and new which people are afraid to play due to the price. I pre-ordered the monster race edition long before some people even heard about the game and I bought every season pass as soon as it was available.
I think it was just season pass 2 since the first was part of my pre-order bonus but whatever… not everybody has the financial possibility to pay that much for games, don’t you think your game is a bit expensive? I mean yeah, you guys added a shitload of content which is super awesome but barely anybody noticed since they stopped following your game due to all the complaints about the game lacking content in the beginning.
Okay, next thing: Why does it feel that we get a ton of balance patches and another ton of game content but the ACTUAL, sooo badly needed connectivity and stability fixes are still missing? And I mentioned it, the problems are there, they are real, every pc player knows it but they NEVER get mentioned from your side.
This is so sad for those who play and enjoy your game, we have to deal with a lot of shit, sometimes.. just to get into matches. Creating a party in evolve can be a pain in the ass.
So please, please please: be more transparent towards your players and tell us if you guys are working on that? And the Glicko system? What the fudge? I get 4 points for beating a determining rank or bronze 1 monster and ONE point for beating a silver skilled or silver expert monster? (as a silver skilled hunter) It all seems soooooo random since my comrades have a total different outcome for the same match, being silver skilled hunters themselves.
Can somebody please explain me the Glicko system?
Like, really explaining it? Please don’t just say it’s really complex.
Okay ehm I think I threw some questions towards you and I’d become an even bigger fan of you guys and your game if someone would answer them thoroughly. Okay then.. that’s it…. Everybody, <3 for reading it.
