I wish I had more free time, to actually debug the issue(s) from within the VPSs, but since Saturday of the last week I'm working basically from 7 am till 7 - 9pm. Sorry lads.

I don't think following my guide is any help in this case. The default OpenVZ iptables firewall setup is to ACCEPT all connections on all interfaces and chains. So if the game server still won't work with the wide open firewall my guide is going to be pointless because it will not change anything that would magically allow the game server to work. In fact it makes the firewall way stricter and would require additional rules to open the ports for the game servers.

Based on older threads by @Melvin about the same issue I could confirm that even with the default open firewall it isn't working. It could be a general issue with the game servers that needs to be found from within the VPS. However it could also be just that the provider is doing something to prevent game servers to be reachable.

Working with the control panel VNC or emergency SSH is just important when initially setting up the firewall by the way. After you have setup the firewall and everything works properly you can stop using the control panel VNC or emergency SSH.
