Yeah. I find it odd that despite the number of ME devs who play MP, no one noticed this previously.shadowkinz wrote...
But there is no way you guys didn't already know about this o.O
You said "bringing this to our attention" xD
I'm going to guess it's a communication issue. There are only a small number of people who know cannibals are supposed to execute.

So geth and troopers can footstomp downed teammates, preventing them from reviving until the end of the wave. I don't think any of the reapers do this though.
Did you guys ever consider having cannibal do this too, but via their eating animation? Would be funny to see one of them tucking into one of your teammates as you're running over to revive them.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Cannibals are, in fact, supposed to be 'executing' downed players about as often as Cerberus Troopers do. They do this by 'consuming' the player via their regurgitation of bile in order to tenderize the meal (some races are tougher than others after all).
Enjoy!
So in other words: They're supposed to puke you to death? Got it.

Cool. Another reason to be excited about the first time they get to patch multiplayer.

Feel free to shout "Shampoohorn" in fury the first time you get JeffGoldblumed. I prefer you draw out the 'horn' (as in "SHAMPOOHOOOOORNNNN") rather than the 'poo' when you shout it.
edit: added the visual

Also, is it my imagination, or are geth troopers far quicker to stomp you out than cerberus?

They are aggressive with their executions. Probably because they don't have any instakill units...

Play gold. You almost never get executed there.
Probably because you almost never see a basic trooper after the first round. It's all hunters/mauraders/centurions.

You're telling me Reapers are going to get harder? Seriously?
The lack of executions is the only thing bringing Reapers down to remotely the same level as Cerberus and Geth.
Same level?
Stupid Husk that'll take you out of cover with a ravager targetting you?
Banshee execution kills that have no rivial but Phantoms?
Brute's that hurt as much as the Atlas but faster with a quicker execution?
I think this downed execution is something that's been missing from the Reapers that should be added.

Hard enough trying to revive a teammate with 3 Brutes on him, now I gotta worry about a Cannibal going and barfing on em? No thanks you.

Guardians shoot at you when you're down too. Not sure how common it is though since I first saw it about 3 hours ago.

So have the cannibals been patched to exe-puke now? I'm wondering if that's part of the "show no mercy" bullet from the patch notes.
