Game arrived on time and looks great and plays good. When it arrived the disk was popped out and moved about. Used glass cleaner and was perfect. Not sure of the Code worked, only got go get 7 downloads out of what looked like 25 or so.

Evolve is unlike any competitive multiplayer I've played, its unique 4v1 system is interesting and that is what makes the game for the most part, good. However, the game is so limited in options that some may find the gameplay repetitive. You basically have two main options, solo, which is you against AI according to your rules, and online multiplayer. The multiplayer has only 3 competitive modes and a private match option for friends only in nonranked matches. The first mode is the hunt, what the game was based around. 4 hunters each of a unique class need to find and kill a monster before it evolves into a more powerful stage 3 and destroys an objective. While this is the most exciting mode, my problem with it is the team proportions. While monsters and 4 hunters are for the most part balanced in terms of abilities and health, the hunters must work as a team to best make use of their abilities in order to have a chance against and experienced monster, who has only itself to worry about. If all hunters are skilled except the trapper, then the monster will be nearly impossible to find. If the medic is lacking, then death will be inevitable. So if you want to hunt, make sure you have a worthy team of friends rather than 10 year old randoms. The evacuation mode is 5 consecutive matches of random modes on random maps, losers gain handicap to even the odds but winners receive a modifier such as defensive turrets for the next match. Here, there are 3 additional game modes that are ok, but not as fun as the hunt. One has the monster defending nests, another has hunters rescuing people, and the last has the hunters defending generators from a monster and its minions. The arena mode locks all players in a small arena to fight, which takes away the searching and stealth aspects for much shorter matches of combat only and less strategy, this mode was recently added, as was other free add-ons, which is good to see. Unfortunately, my biggest issue is that dlc characters have have been in the making since before the game was released and are a big part of the game. It is $10 for extra monsters, and about $5 for extra hunters. While these add more strategy to the game, i feel that the price is excessive and that these could have been made witht he game upon release for free. All the extra characters for the 2 seasons are $70 to the game, costing more than the game when it was new just to add 8 hunters and 2 monsters. Overall, if you are someone who loves competitive multiplayer like COD and don not care if there is no story, this is a fun game. The maps are many and various and the character classes and different monsters are all unique with their own strategies. If multiplayer bores you, this is not for you. The dlc is quite pricey and while it may be worth it to those who really get into this game, this does not apply to most casual players. If you find this game for cheap, go for it, the matches are intense and different enough to be fun.Read full review

The player base has sunk a bit and playing as a human can be hard if you're team isnt too fond of tactical/strategic gaming. Otherwise it's great !!! Playing as the monster is always really great whether your a "noob" or a pro it's always fun to kill some animals....... and humans ;)
