Hunt: Showdown 1896

Hunt: Showdown 1896

Currently stuck on terrain and going to lose my hunter...
There's GOT to be an option so that I don't have to lose a hunter I sunk HOURS into because I got stuck between a tree and a handrail.

He's alive right now and I get to spend the next 55 minutes fruitlessly trying to wriggle free before dying instead of retiring him as he DESERVED. I love this game but this really, REALLY sucks...

Consider your hunter trapped and dead. This is a cruel world, deal with it.

If you have a partner have him kill you and revive you. When you die the body flies off a bit, so it's an option.
Please take some screenshots including of the map and report it as a bug. Sorry for your loss.
Got that ♥♥♥♥ the other day..... Alt-F4 :-/

I closed the game over Task Manager once. I was stuck in terrain too. It worked for me but you never know... ;)

Just tried that after being stuck.

When I re-launched the game it said "your hunter is assumed killed and lost. We apologize for the inconvenience. "

I've had this many times =)
my teammates were killing me. If you are in solo, then I sympathize with you

If you alt-F4 and there are no enemies in your proximity and you haven´t taken damage in the past... no idea how many seconds, but probably like 10-20, you should not lose your hunter. It will treat it as a game crash.

I got stuck on a fence and my randoms were too far away to hear me,inside fences none can hear you scream.

I think it has to do with a combat timer... if you recently killed a monster, or fought in a battle... then get stuck... don't alt-f4 or pull your internet... I wait a bit, say 3-5 minutes, then ALT-f4. I get a response saying that "disconnected but reset your hunter to start of match..." Its to prevent people from alt-f4 during a firefight to save their toons.

Definitely not necessary to wait 3-5 minutes, no idea what the exact timeframe is, but I am 100% sure it is less than 1 minute. Probably even less than 30 seconds in fact.

Ohhh.... I didn't know it was taking damage within a certain time that determined whether you lost your hunter or not.

I had an issue last month for about 10-15 attempts where the game kept crashing to desktop about 3-5 minutes into a map (I just had to re-verify the game cache) but it took losing half a dozen hunters to figure it out...

press alt f4 and you will DC without losing your hunter.

unless:

-there are enemies (players) closer than 50m
-you just took damage in the last 30s
-you just aggro'd an NPC in the last 30s
-you just shot something in the last 30s

you will even receive 50% of the earned XP from that round.
