Cons
Con Dedicated servers have been shut down
The game is no longer supported. You can still play peer-to-peer though.
Con Pre-order unlocks
Evolve will allow anyone who pre-orders the game to have all monsters unlocked from the start. Something that will not be true for normal post release paying customers. What this means is that the grind that is necessary to unlock the monsters is pretty much superfluous and only there to incentivize pre-order money (getting money before anyone finds out if the game is good or not) as well as falsely lengthen the game with monotonous tasks allowing the creators to keep their player-base playing the until more DLC is released.
Con Buggy
There are quite a few bugs during gameplay such as dying immediately after a respawn. This can be frustrating for the player and makes for a subpar experience.
Con Difficult gameplay
Difficulty starts at hard and only gets harder from each setting after that making for a difficult game that is not friendly to people used to less difficult games. It can also take time to get used to the difficulty which some people do not have to spare.
