Report System - New Report Idea

Hey so, this only happens on occasion but when it does it is extremely annoying. The jumpmaster in a recent match didn't drop, so the other teammate and I dropped to a different location, since we didn't want to wait to see if the jumpmaster would start moving (we had already waited till the game forced us to drop). During this time, the only location that made sense to drop to already had some enemies, who then proceeded to kill us. From the spectator mode, I saw that the jumpmaster had finally stopped being AFK and was just looting and doing absolutely nothing. They were a Wraith, had purple shields, and a good loadout. Like I've said, this doesn't happen in the matches I play very often, but I was just wondering if it would be possible to add an "Inactive teammate" or "abandon squad" report option. I know that right now it may be hard to implement to many things into the game, but I just wanted to give some feedback. Thanks for reading this!

TL;DR

It can be very aggravating when a teammate is AFK, or abandons the team. I propose new report options of "Inactive Teammate," or "Abandoned Squad."

  • Sadly it appears they allow people to drop solo if they choose to. A lot streamers do it I would assume it would cause issues with player base to stop someone from playing the way they wish to play it. While it is wrong it is their right.

    Im just curious how you (since this is your suggestion) think that the suggested "inactive teammate reports" should be processed by the system. Should there be a certain ratio like "if the number of times a player get reported by a non-premade divided by the number of non-premades played with > 0.2 then the system would auto-punish this player?  And if so, what prevents every freaking premade cancer duo from reporting every single random they get matched with for this, also for things that isnt AFK-related?

    In other words; what would be the point of this new report?

    @Babbediboopi Possibly if they get reported a certain amount of times in one week (6-10 times maybe), they are temporarily banned (30 minutes) and if more reports come in then they are banned 30minutes + 10minutes per report. When they have been reported enough times to reach the halfway allowed point, they get a warning.
  • Player report based systems don't work.

    But I think leavers are far worse and more frequent than an afk jump master.  

    All Epic needs to do is record how many times people leave before their timer runs out.  Then sort people based on the number of leaves they have, before they sbmm.  

    Keep the high frequency leavers together in their own games.  Your afk jump masters probably fall into that category anyway.

  • its not report based systems don't work

    it works but most cheats it cant check it out.

    the report system should be that if one player or two report some one , not more than 5 players report then start check ,cause cheaters hiding the most time and kill people at part of the match system should check all his game data if his bullets almost over 85% hit on traget  he should be stop immediately not banned but make him unconnected

    Search the same IP address if he cheats before  ,Search the same name account cheated before, most cheaters use the same name like hacker1  hacker111 or hacker301 some *

    We need to check the model and brand of the mouse, and check whether there is a mouse macro that can cheat according to the driver provided by the supplier

    there is unknown mouse macro software in the process of the player's computer, it will make him unable to start the game

    but only after he closed it

    not just check and check over again and cant find it out let him keep cheating

    I once asked the cheater why he wasn't banned. He said that I only turned on the wallhack and the bullet had no recoil. The system couldn't recognize my cheating, so I wasn't banned

    And I found a fact when most cheaters can't cheat, our server is very good, but when a large number of cheaters enter, the server will become very backward, because they are stealing server information

    @EA_Joz 

    pls tell respawn this message . THX for reading and convey this message to respawn or Easy anti-cheat I really appreciate it.

    @现代的仙境 I agree with this practice. I don't rule out the occurrence of malicious reports, but our current anti cheating measures are too "gentle". We need to be tough. If we cheat, we should ban it immediately and suspend it for one hour or several times, and if he still cheats ban it immediately
  • @AModernFaerieThis game needs less penaltys and more variety, variety in choices as of game modes but if they add more choices as in solos and duos and people still do things like drop solo in trios then I agree to punish them as they have other choices of modes to choose but as of the current state of apex I don’t agree I should be punished for wanting solos when most teammates die within the first minute and leave instantly anyways and there is no other option for solos if not solos they should add a ‘’no fill’’ option, personally adding solos would stop me from doing in it casual completely as I would have no reason to drop solo and 
    aslong as Apex only has trios it will always have issues of players dropping solo or duos that don’t care about their third member

    Apex basically has ONE game mode currently SBMM Ranked Trios in Casual and Ranked Trios in Ranked and a LTM of SBMM Ranked Trios in Kings Canyon currently which are all the exact same game mode except on different maps

    As for the ‘’AFK’’ players it could be a mixture of a few things but most likely a player either had a long queue time and got tired of waiting or had to run to the restroom or get a snack, I used to ‘’pretend’’ to be afk every now and then when people would relinquish jumpmaster to me just to teach them to choose a location themselves before passing it on to someone else because i was sick of players passing it to me every single match but I just started hitting drop solo so they could pass it back and forth to each other and then I would just land wherever they landed or I just wanted to be solo so pretended to be afk the first 30 seconds to see if they were still alive... most of the time they was dead as soon as they hit the ground and rage quit. I didn’t feel as guilty as plain dropping solo if they left by themselves at the time but if they were still alive I would play the match with them
