Evolve as a single player game?

[uKER]

I don't play online.
That said, does this game even have a single player campaign?
Is it worth buying as a single player game?
What about local multiplayer?

Thanks for your comments.

[Old Man Withers]

Yes. Buy it.

[Riekopo]

It does indeed have bots.

[ShikenNuggets]

Short answer, no.

This game is primarily multiplayer and I would not recommend it if you are looking for a singleplayer experience.

[Tahlen]

It has single player with bots (though the bots can destory you if you aren't experienced) but I don't think it's worth it just for the singleplayer.

It's got single player, but it really shines in multiplayer. Would be like playing Mariokart by yourself, you can do it, but you're missing out on a huge chunk of what makes it fun.

This. I'm not sure if it allows local MP (as in LAN) but honestly this IS a MP game. the "campaign" is a series of 5 maps where your successes/failures shape the resulting maps. I'd reccomend for multiplayer, and YES im sure you'll get some enjoymenr out of it in SP, but not for $70. If its only going to be played alone by you, I'd hold off for a bit. Just my oppinion though :)

Probably NOT worth it. Think, L4D had a story to run through. You had goals to make it to. You had endings... L4D was was both SP and MP. This is running around trying to kill a monster. I would think that it would get boring really quick in SP mode.

Just imagine a L4D2 Versus but with only bots

Or Counter Strike, Team Fortress 2 and other multiplayer-main games which are boring with bots

Yup, won't be very exciting in SP mode.

[Bazil]

Yeah no, I'd hold off on it if you're solo only.

Can we earn EXP in singleplayer mode? (Is character progression shared between SP and MP?)

Im interested too. I have two more questions: ¿Are the bots cappable/challenging?. ¿Can you play coop vs or against a mix of humans and bots?

[Hooch]

It's not a real campaign, just rounds with ai bots.

This has been one of the criticisms of the game and is why some believe that the game will see a short shelf life. Many people thought Titanfall was great when it first came out, but its activity level dropped off rather quickly in a short period of time due to people just getting tired of the same old thing. There was no real sp mode in the game...there's no longevity.

Not saying that Evolve is the same, but it is a valid concern and one had for quite some time now as a suspicion. Time will only tell though.

The bots are worthless imo. You'll get bored in no time.
