If you like Objective Mode in Killing Floor 2, it helps a lot to know which objective comes next: escorting the drone, defending a spot, or the boss wave. Picking the wrong perk or loadout for an objective is a classic reason for a wipe. This list, compiled by two players for their own use, records the objective of every wave on each official Objective Mode map. For general strategy see the Objective Mode walkthrough.
All maps were completed on Hell on Earth. On lower difficulties the details may differ a little: there are no Rioters on Normal and Hard, no Elite Crawlers on Normal, and so on.
