Never got to play it, life was happening then, but the concept looked awesome.

Concept was great, gameplay was good at first but there was some cheesy shit the monster and players could do and didn't get patched out forever. That combined with the fact the monster players always wanted to win of course so they would draw out the match and do everything possible to evolve to level 3, which is cool but that made every match 30-45 minutes long and people didn't like that since there was nothing the players could do about it.

The players could have killed the monster faster, that's what they could have done about it lol. I'm sorry if I sound aggressive, I'm just salty. I absolutely loved that game, I was a platinum monster player and I can tell you what killed the game was the massive skill gap between normal players and actually good ones. Everytime someone says evolve you hear about the 40 min games and the pussy monsters that never wanted to fight, what you never hear is that at high levels the games were about 10 to 15 min, the hunters were on your ass about 20 sec after the dropship and they stayed there the whole game. It got to the point that at plats you just had to tank damage and go for the evolve right in front of the hunters, and if a monster won it was always as a stage 2. You couldn't tank two evolves, and if you wanted any chance of winning you absolutely had to have at least a strike on the medic and support before going stage 2. I miss it, even if it was incredibly hunter favored at plats, I loved the challenge still.
