I killed 2 boars before going in and when I came back there were 2 more next to the ones i already killed. Is this new or glitch?
Boars respawn?!?!

Or maybe it was already a thing and I never noticed?
Yes it is. Boars can respawn. There is unlimited healing source for Predator.

Lol so basically people complained and the dev’s delivered, But in a way that doesn’t affect to much. As much as I hate it, I’m ok with it I guess…
It’s been this way forever. Boars spawn after spending ~2-3 minutes in an area. If you leave and come back they’ll spawn in the same manner
Yea never noticed!!! Thanks for the confirmation.
Yeah, which is meaningless when there’s a timer…

They also spawn in packs of fives sometimes, while hilarious and I take full advantage, its gotta be fixed.
They provide a beefy heal and between fire team shooting them for me (don’t change that, but seriously FTs needs to learn that is not their benefit) and its moderate speed of a heal, life as a Pred is easier than normal.
I think the class played should determine how many spawn.
Add some tactic play to knowing how many boars you can heal off of.

It is not two to three minutes lol. I have had many boars spawn back basically as soon as I broke visual from the initial corpse. Sometimes before my very eyes after killing a boar. It needs to be dealt with.
If fireteam doesn’t get stalled in an area you don’t get twenty boars running around. If FT keeps moving they’ll spawn along the path behind them. If you’re at a compound they spawn around the compound fence within the fireteam’s line of sight, with an exception of the one’s on the hill at that temple area & the mini swamp.
Realistically if you remove pred’s healing and they still have to deal with timer the game is going back to 3 minute wipes for one side or the other. Because the predator no longer can safely disengage after 2 medkits. It shouldn’t be an attrition war vs the power role for obvious reasons.
The FT already outheals the pred via map medkits, personal medkits, syringes, gearhead, ammo boxes replenishing syringes, and reinforcements giving them ALL their gear back so people just suicide before the reinforce now. Yeah you could tone down heals for both sides but games would be even shorter than they are now because there’s no longer an advantage to either side backing off if they have to commit to every engagement.
If the predator is eating 5 pigs in general and the game is still going you’re doing something wrong. And whenever the pred is healing your team should be healing. He loses so much info on the FT if he has to go run off to kill pigs rather than healing on top of the silos and such.

Kill them where you find them - they’ll be marked on your mini-map for future eating…
They seem to despawn when I play, sometimes I scour the entire map and theres not a boar to be found.

Yeah, some games are like that. Thats why I kill them when find them - i can always eat them later
I have a dirty joke for you,
Two pigs fell in the mud.
Three came out.
Thank you, that is all.

Kill the boars and mark them with your arrows. That’s my current practice. Boars and the map should be updated in next update from what I understand.
