Predator spawning at the beginning close to fireteam

The last few days I have been in many games as part of the fireteam with the predator spawning so close to us at the beginning that in literally 10 or 15 seconds it engages us. Playing on PS4.

Isn’t predator supposed to appear at the opposite side of the map? What is happening here?

Same. Big giveaway is the Predator using the mic and seeing the mic icon popping up. In that very moment you know you gotta mud up.

As a scout I’ll leap my arse off to the opposite side of the map where you genuinely spawn, then use target isolation to change course accordingly.

I’ve heard several FTs on mic say “here’s hear, ALREADY!?”

I live for that moment 😆

Predator is not spawning close to you. The Predator player spawns before the FT. If you have played Predator long enough you begin to realize the FT tend to spawn at the opposite end of the match to you. So you leap half way there and pop target iso second you are able (this is when the FT deploys) and you can confirm exactly where they are and you are usually 1 leap away from their position.

Depends where you vote on spawning

It has happened with berserkers too, which is quite suspicious.

Hmmm 🤔 I can only imagine they have the extra long leap perk and stamina regain perk…not tried it, but I imagine it would help a berserker get to you quite quick.

My bad I engage right away with pressure and
Then don’t touch u till the end while in the middle shoot what Eva I got once inna while 🤷‍♂️

Happening to me many times. All types of predators.
