Kick simulator - Hosts, why are you doing this?

[Dwonk The Ronk Jonkson]

Playing this game with friends has been awesome and I was in the mood to keep the party going after my friends got off for the night, queueing up for randoms for the first time since getting the game. I am level 19, stick with the team, and announce when I'm splitting off to quickly do an easy nest or side task. With all that said, players in this game really seem to enjoy keeping you until the last minute then kicking you right before extraction. It has happened multiple times tonight and I'm particularly sad about the most recent occurance because I had found over 4 packs of super credits from bases. I kept none of them.

Is anyone else experiencing this trolling?

If randos join my game at level 5+ and just drop stratagems on me and kill me multiple times I will wait till the last second to kick them. Learn the game or don't get rewards. I won't carry people that want to play with out using their brain.

most people lower levels incl wont play with sweaty chads or people with chinese writing or russian writing in there names

I do not do anything even remotely close to that. In most cases I'm the one heavily carrying. While they run around clueless as to where to go.

i kicked a guy that did a 180 and went straight other side of the map and used supplies lol.

On the other hand, I'm not low level but I had a guy accuse me intentionally team killing when his buddy threw his reinforcement in the middle of all the enemies and I had just called an air strike. Also tons of people don't notice when we call big AoEs. So maybe they are team killing you or you're clueless/clumsy.

After some teamkills and yell on airstrike zealot he started to consider AoE and where teammates are XD So, probably, in most cases people just can't calculate the AoE.

Eh I'd hardly call myself a sweaty chad. I die in all difficulties at some point or another and use different strat combos for fun

Also reminder that while I am being autokicked from some games seconds after I join, most let me play until the end then kick

[Alex]

You can kick people? How?

[Frostbeast]

I dont like to kick players. But i can get pretty salty, when someone does a wrong artillery stike and kill me and steal my weapons.
Normaly, i do nothing. I think about to shoot them, to get my stuff back.

Another problem i dont like. When im host and we are on my ship. I cant leave and i need to kick the other players out.
Its pretty bad for the other players. I tell them, before i do that. I want them to know, its not their fault.

[Varukaii]

Never got kicked before extraction, mainly because as most of you said, i use my brain.
I ping the map, i talk in VC shortly such as doing orbital/eagle callouts, grenade throws, sentry deployment, asking if we can call supplies, calling out stalkers etc etc.
This isn't a game you can play with your brain turned off, you will find quickly that people don't have time for casual BS, especially at higher difficulties where you need proper coordination to do anything.
You want to play casual and brain mode off? No problem play difficulties 1-4 at most and enjoy yourself, but going above that and expect just wacky tomfoolery , you in for some really swift kicks.

[Elvi]

Well, some people want to play a certain way, such as speedrunning missions, but will not tell anyone about this. And so anyone who went to collect cache and stuff is getting kicked. Or vice versa really. Personally I just apperciate that most people will hold it untill returned to ship. Even if maybe voicing their targets beforehand would work better.
It's just one of those pleasures of online gaming.

Host your own games in higher difficulties. Unfortunately this game has a lot of pricks at the higher levels and they will happily let you help them clear the entire mission before kicking you right at the end. I've had it happen myself a few times and I've seen it even more on teammates, many of which were pulling their weight or even carrying the game. Sometimes all it can take is one stratagem that the host didn't pay attention to or your guard dog drone causing a bit of friendly fire.

You'll still find plenty of great teams when using quickplay on high difficulties, but consider if it's worth the occasional end of the game kick that wastes 30 minutes of your time. Finding a consistent group to play with and only having yourself or a trusted friend host is ideally the best way to go.

[Oobaneko]

There should be ban for that.

[Myth Alric]

I have only been kicked in the lobby after the game was over, and I assume it is because they are just leaving. I don't think I seen anyone kicked/leaving right before extraction. I have not played in the super high difficulties yet though.

Disable kick during extraction or last 5-10mins. Done.
