We’re a bit stuck with this one but what we do know is that this is related to Easy Anti-Cheat, seeing as you can play on the ‘Modded’ realm with no problems.
Firstly please check that the Easy Anti-Cheat service is enabled by:
- Open the Command Prompt as an administrator
- Enter the command:
services.msc - Locate Easy Anti-Cheat within the list and double-click it
- Change ‘Startup Type’ to ‘Manual’
- Save the changes
Next step would be to perform a a Selective Startup. This can help diagnose whether a background application is interfering with Easy Anti-Cheat. This can be performed by:
- Press the Windows key
- Type ‘msconfig’ and select ‘System Configuration’
- On the ‘General’ tab, select ‘Selective Startup’
- Deselect ‘Load startup Items’
- Reboot your PC
- Re-launch Vermintide 2 and see if the issue persists
