Regaring the Despawning System

[Mvpeh]

Alright, today I was hunting a bear.. on a tiny island. Really small. Like, miniscule. REALLY REALLY SMALL, OKAY?

It's on that sliver of land in the center of the map between the 4 water ways.

I thought I had him.. I was shooting him, he ran around in circles and I lul'd and shot some more. I ran out of rocks, so I went to the closet land to collect some more.
I come back to finish the future Teddy Bear, and the guy is gone.

What's up with that?

I got 10 stones with a pickaxe, so not over 30 seconds.. Where did he go? :<

Who gave the fucker 500LP for swimming? huh?

I guess what I'm asking is, can anyone explain why this happened? I mean.. it's kind of irrational.

Is there a certain time limit, a certain unit limit for people to be in? I don't know..

I want my bear.

When bears are fleeing, if you leave combat and sight range of them they just despawn.

Not always, some of my friends engaged bears in melee only to discover they're already enraged. Hilarity ensued, of course.

Interesting, I haven't had that happen yet =s. Though, my luck, i'm sure my day is coming =)

Maybe the bear's just having a bad day?

I believe if the bear travels on to a part of the map that hasn't been loaded yet it despawns I can't be sure though. It's happened to me several times, incredibly frustrating.
