Prey Escaped!? WTF

I love this game to death… HOWEVER. Just downed all four members while the chopper was arriving, chopper leaves and then it says prey escaped!! This is absolutely enraging. I worked my ass off the entire round to down them. See attached image.

same here…

this game is “Skynet” I’m telling you its toying with us its slowly becoming self aware, this is how it all begins. cyberdyne my ass more like Illfonic

Yeah, happened to me also. Downed and still says escaped lol

Its the same as when a FT calls chopper and kills pred and have to guard the body only for the round to end cuz chopper left

I agree, there’s allot of situations that screw over the Predator’s kill count and thus XP earned that NEEDS to be fixed:

  • If Predator downs a player & that player bleeds out, the kill should be counted

  • If Fire Team is downed during Exfil, Predator should have ample time to claim trophies after chopper flies away

  • Fire Team kills & trophy claims should be listed separately during AAR, kills and claims are different items — if a kill is made it should count regardless of a trophy claim

  • Sometimes Fire Team claims aren’t being counted at all

  • Occasionally Fire Team claim interactions are bugged, not allowing Predator to make the claim unless they reposition and attempt again, if being shot at by remaining FT members can cause a Predator to be killed because of the bug

I was fire team once everybody got downed at the chopper but it showed like somebody got on the chopper I was confused as to if someone got on but it showed he was dead as a bug or what but now I know what happened
