This pops up every so often when you join a server. I originally thought it was just players hogging a server and kicking you as soon as you join, but I’m at my mates place this weekend and we have our computers set up next to each other and while we were in a server together today the second the map loaded this kick message came up on his screen. I was in the game with him, no one voted anything, the map had barely even loaded. As I say I’ve experienced this a few times myself but after seeing it happen to someone else first hand I now know it’s a bug. What causes it I have no idea.
"You have been kicked from the game"

Err, can you be a little more precise?
As far as I understand it, you’ve had this happen before at your own home. Playing alone? Nobody else playing Dirty Bomb on the same address?
In the other instance you talk about, you say your friend was the one who got kicked. He was playing on a different PC than the one you had issues with before?
And did he load into the same team as you? Can you say with 100% certainty that he was on your team and you were loaded before he was, so you could definitely have seen the kick vote if there was one?

Yes exactly that. About 3 times over the last month or two I’ve joined games before where the second it loads into the lobby where you can change your loadouts before “locking in” I get booted back to the main menu and it says “You have been kicked from the game”
I always wondered how, because it didn’t even feel like I’d been in the server for long enough to have someone kick me (It would usually happen within 1 second of joining). I originally just assumed it was dickheads trying to hog a server to farm missions and just kicked anyone who joined.
Then yes, this weekend here, me and my mate at his house have our PC’s next to each other playing Dirty Bomb and I saw the exact same thing happen to him on his PC when he followed me into the server. I played 1 game, the server was full, he waited for the second game to join as someone usually leaves at the end of the game and then when the map loaded he got kicked. I was in the server there was no callvote kick to kick him. So now I’m convinced it’s a rare bug and not just people callvoting.

Never had this happen, myself.
