4 mins left for extraction, 1 teammate boards and Pelican takes off

[Khatar]

We lost all of our samples because 1 person boarded the pelican with plenty of time and it just took off, leaving the other 2 players "failed to extract." We lost all of our samples on this dumb a*s bug. Stop putting cash grab sh*t in the game and fix your broken a*s game!

That's not a bug. One person gets on and the pelican starts a 20 second countdown.
As for people calling and extracting before the team is ready, ya they suck. You can use the chat to ask them to not call in the extract, and if they don't listen, kick them(if you're the host). If they're the host however, then you're in their game and they can extract whenever the heck they want.

No, that is a bug. The pelican will take off immediately with no 20s timer sometimes after the first person enters. Even if everyone else is standing right around the pelican.

Was the Pelican waiting a long time before they boarded or did it get damaged? Not sure if intended or not, but I've noticed it seems to happen because of this. Could be other factors, but definitely gotta make sure the person with all the samples gets on first.

I've only seen this happen twice, but in both cases it was after the pelican took a beating. I agree about it being related to being damaged.

It's because the Pelican got damaged.

[Khatar]

No Corey, only 1 person boarded and we did not get the 20 second countdown. It immediately just left. That IS a bug.

[Chocbomb]

Have seen this bug happen.
It sometimes will just take of, i was told it was because the Pelican was damaged or something.

[Dain_Ironfoot]

Not sure if it's a bug because it makes sense if it gets damaged it wants to leave quicker.

[Illumina]

So it's both a bug and OP cannot explain things clearly.

Thats the players error not the devs. Start forming a group of friends who are like minded players.

There's an actual predicament that happens to the Pelican where if it takes enough damage, it will "Blow up" and it will only take the first Helldiver to get on. There's MUCH rarer instance where the Pelican can actually be K.O.d from taking off entirely, forcing you to all run your Reinforcements to 0 to finish.

You can tell from this if it begins to smoke and catch fire. So, keep your Strategems away from it when you can, and try not landing any Hellpods on it either as that does too damage it.

[DtHouse]

Well when you see 1 player ask for extractions alone while the other are far, just kick him and ♥♥♥♥ off. Who said to him to go extract alone? Kick him and bye bye

[ReBootXD]

Is the bug in the room with us now?

[SCUM-O-CIDE]

just happened to me too, its probably a bug as soon as I got in it took off leaving everyone behind.. and yes we let pelican wait landed because 2 teammates where running back from far. But seems a bug, since there is no warning or timer of any kind
