Hunters Disappearing

One report about the issue is enough.

//Mod

Ok so I was destroying one of the Flinx stations. When I got to the part where the hunters arrive I killed one pretty quickly with the acid rounds. I ran up to him and looted him because they have been disappearing once FLINX has been defeated. Poof the other 3 just disappeared no trace at all. But then when I went to destroy Flinx 4 more appeared I tried the same thing and again the rest disappeared. New bug or continuation of old bug I don’t know.

Sounds like it may be related to this bug, so I’m putting the report here.

I hadn’t had this happen at all, ever, until after yesterday’s update (XboxSX) and it then occurred three times inside an hour. A wave of four hunters engage, shoot two, loot two and the other two disappear.

This usually happens to me, only when I attack bases they usually disappear quite quickly, and tanks also disappear every now and then if you destroy them next to a base and then run into the area of ​​the base attack mission, they also disappear, every now and then They reappear after completing the basic mission but not always.

It’s basically been happening ever since the recent memory optimisations. Anything that spawns Swedish units seems to have the same issue:

  • Harvesters: affects Runners, Hunters and mixed waves
  • FNIX Command Centres: same as Harvesters
  • Reapers: FNIX Runners

From my observations, it seems to occur when only 1-2 units remains from the beginning guard or from a reinforcement drop. It also causes wreckages from previously destroyed guard/reinforcements to vanish, even when the player is actively looting one.

I’ve noticed this too, but this might’ve been occurring before the update, though I’m not certain on that. Many enemies are cordoned off from interfering with the Base Assault mission and so they sometimes disappear whilst it’s in progress and then reappear again once it’s completed.

My disappearances were out in the open and nowhere near a base. I did notice that they only disappear when not in view. I turned round to finish the wave, I knew they were behind me, but there was nothing. This was in the middle of a field so they hadn’t run off anywhere.

The new daily mission was… fun? Naah!

Under normal circumstances, an Apocalypse Harvester is escorted by 4 Apocalypse Hunters and if you beat all 4 of them 4 new ones are called in up to 2 times. So a total of 12 Hunters.
Perfect for the mission destroy 10 Apocalyps machines, IF I could kill more than 2 of them OR kill 1 and loot it before the remaining of the 4 disappear…

Even then Ticks is counted for the day’s mission but they barely spawned in before all the Hunters disappeared. Ended up being forced to take on another Apocalypse Harvester and escorting Hunters before I got my 10 Apocalypse kills.

Sometimes you wonder how many 5C weapons you missed when almost 3 quarters of all Apocalypse Hunters just disappear…

the hunters that are part of the Harvesters called-in group, need to be close to the Harvester, if the hunters walk far away from that Harvester, they disappear, trying to not destroy Harvester & get hunters away from Harvester, just know the distance limit

apocalypse class hunters have police clothing, & I wanna protect the apocalypse Harvester so he will call-in more police clothing, destroying Harvester doesn’t call-in more police clothing, just understanding distance limitations, it is what it is

Don’t care about cloths, got it all. And Hunters disappears standing near the Harvester too btw!

Also destroyd a FNIX lvl.3 base today so a new could spawn, about 1/3 to 1/2 of them disappared.
Either the dead ones or in the middel of a jump attack on me, for example.

maybe a new glitch, the only hunter disappears I get are from walking to far away from harvesters, or I just don’t notice, or maybe to much on screen, fast travel away & back, :confused:, things disappear sometimes, I think games normally do that

I had a fnix bases & shooting seekers from spawners, & about 100 destroyed seekers on screen at same time, later, I fast travel away and back, they were gone

seekers had the full module I needed from all those

Okay I’ve noticed in the last couple weeks when I’m fighting the enemies either the enemies that I’m fighting that are still active will disappear while I’m shooting them or looking at them or after I kill them their bodies will disappear before I get to him to get the loot. This is very aggravating when you go through a battle and then the damn bodies disappear

Moved to report thread covering the issue.

That’s right, I’ve had the problem recently that sometimes it’s enough to target hunter/runners and poof they’re gone
