Removed/Kicked from server after a wave ‘Issue’ [Megathread]

Posted: 26 Oct 2020 08:26 PM PDT

To (hopefully) avoid future duplicate posts on the front page, and because the older announcement thread has an undescriptive title, this megathread will serve as a FAQ page for PC players who have faced issues from being automatically kicked after a wave.

FAQ

I got kicked after Wave 1 while playing a server. What gives?

There's a high chance you unknowingly joined a server (either via Create a Match/server browser) that autokicked you for playing certain perks. Some boot you for playing Berserker/Survivalist, some boot you for playing anything but Berserker/Survivalist.

One common symptom of these two types of autokick servers is that they are named after parts of the lyrics to Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up. You can easily tell this out by bringing up the scoreboard as soon as the game starts and looking at the bottom of the scoreboard for the name.

Wait, but I used Create a Match to create a private server to play on? How did I end up joining a non-official server?

So, an explanation for how Create a Match works:

Create a Match works by putting you (and everyone in your party) in a random available dedicated server with the difficulty settings you specified. This can be any server, from an official Tripwire-hosted server to a community-run server configured to allow such 'takeovers'. The resulting game created isn't really a 'private server' as much as you're playing on someone else's server, but with possibly different difficulty settings from what the owner originally configured with and (possibly) with a password you set to prevent other players from connecting.

As there's hundreds of these auto-kicking servers, there's a high chance when using Create a Match, it will attempt to place you on one of these servers instead.

How do I prevent this?

Do check out this guide on how to block connections to these servers via Windows Firewall:

Steam Community - How to blacklist VIN and other undesirable servers

Alternatively, you can just use the server browser to manually avoid them.

What if my issue isn't what you described? (i.e. game crashing)

Please confirm the above is not the issue you're facing before making a post here. Any posts detailing about joining an Autokick server will be removed as part of the rules against Low-Effort Content.

This megathread is missing some info/updates!

Do drop a comment here and I will add them in.

Reminder from the mods: As much of a dick move this is, suggesting to DDOS/crash the servers and/or witchhunt the owner of these servers is forbidden here. Failure to do so will result in a ban.

10$ for one weapon? How fucking greedy can you get. Most DLCs for games don't even cost that much.

Been playing since release day and just NOW realized that the Gunslingers 25 skill Whirlwind of Lead has a faster reload in zed time compared to Fanfire

Because it focuses on the passive benefit of 75% reload speed. The other skill called Fanfire has realtime reload instead of the bonus. Just wow.

Also! I realized the Grenade pistol is amazing with this skill because you can shoot it infinitely without reloading. Been using fanfire ever since but now I love this one more.

I used to be super into Killing Floor 2 and fell out for a while. Is there still a player base on Ps4? It's been a few years since I played
