Yes! Evolve, the game made by former L4D peeps, just got available for pre-order. Or at least I saw it just now. I have been a supporter of the game and as soon as I can, I will pre-order. I wanted to ask, what are your thoughts on this game. Yay or nay?

Nice...but I've decided never to pre-order a game after my WarZ mistake.

I see a lot of crossover between the game and L4d, good or bad im not sure.

 

But i totally agree with XzisT, pre-orders are the worst idea for any game. Even ones that everyone is 100% sure it will be amazing. Now that everything is digital download there isnt a point in pre-orders or midnight launches, unless you want the "bonus" stuff. The only games i could really consider pre-ordering would be MMOs because you want to start on day 1, but only after you wait to see how their beta periods go.

 

I used to be all for getting both ESO and Wildstar, got into both betas and just went "meh". Glad i didnt order before that.

Pre ordering for me is supporting the game. I see a great future for this game. After all, it is my most anticipated of 2014 haha

I always think that, but ive been burned so many times that i just cant trust devs anymore. Im ok with playing my backlog of games while waiting to see if the game turns out good. Id rather reward a company for doing a good job, rather than rewarding them for hopefully giving me something that i want.

Yeah could be, but I plan to see a great job from the devs. I only preorder games when I'm absolutely sure I will enjoy the game.

I will most likely buy it after I start seeing more gameplay footage of it.

 

I'm sure the game will have plenty of people playing so I am not worried about servers being empty.

If you are absolutely sure you will enjoy it before you have played it and it isnt even a sequel. You are very gullible or lack imagination. Or both.

Not into pre-orders so no...But I with take two behind them I think it will be a very nice polished game.  I will probably buy it on release or once I know that Ill always get a game.  Personally I think it looks fucking awesome. Nice idea and from what i saw in game informer, it is getting executed well. Cant wait for release.

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.

Tell that to all the people that bought Star Citizen

Everyone thinks it's a crappy game, I have 200+ hrs enjoying the hell out of it with my mates almost every night, and I'll probbably play it for at least another year...

I preordered trials fusion because it's a trial game, there is no way in hell they can fuck up that concept. That and I knew someone who had the beta, so i asked them if i could borrow their account and try it out and it turned out the beta was really fun.

there is obviously a chance of the game failing, but I have researched this game, and all of it leads to it being a great game. It doesn't mean I'm stupid think of it as a sequel to left 4 dead 2. I believed in Titanfall. Look what it became.
