Reporting players

Currently the only really cheating thing you can report players for is aimboting. This does not include the variety of hacks a new system would be better for more precise action

suggestions for new reporting capabilities:

speed hack

wall hack

Extended mag

instant heal

I hope this will make reporting easier. It seem respawn is trying to make it more difficult to report players, with the new arenas set up. It also kicks you to the lobby, only a short time in death screen. That makes it harder to report people in arenas without disrupting your gameplay. In control you have to chose between reporting a player and respawning. These inconveniences make it less likely for players to report others, leading to less action. I hope reporting players will be made easier and soon. EA and Respawn need to take a sabbatical season, to fix bugs, and do things like this. The weapon legend and content pool is already huge. If it helps EA, doing this WILL HELP YOU MAKE MORE MONEY as people will want to play your new bug free game, with the most advanced system for ping, reporting, and ranked, your game would be un beatable. Please consider these suggestions.

@XHelperZ That’s a great idea, kind of like a match history! That way you could feel free to play the game without feeling that you have to report asap. Thanks for your help!

This thread shows that you can report cheating in these categories:
"Shot me with no line of sight" (Either wallhacks or manipulating the trajectory of projectiles0
"Aim was snapping to targets" (Indeed related to aimbot)
"Moving in impossible ways" (Indicates a report option for speed hacking)
"Ammo or recoil was unusual" (Can be used for extended mags, next to that heals are technically related to some form of ammo, so I'd say that this is applicable too)

Also might help with reporting players outside of the match.

@XHelperZ Unfortunately the chat section you linked to is out dated and only shows the old way to report people. I will look for these options the next time I play tho, thanks! Also there still needs to be fixes to the time limit on when you can report people, and where you go to report them. This combo makes it hard to report players while not interrupting gameplay. Even after a match, it will kick you to the lobby quickly.
(This is mainly a problem with arenas, especially with the new scoreboard system) reporting categories mean nothing if you have no time to report people. @XHelperZ thanks for your help!

Thanks for letting me know @BigMacAttack8u!
Just forgot to check when it was posted, so it might've confused others passing by this thread. :P
Either way I understand the position, it might be better to have a way to report players outside of matches.
Creating a screen where you can find players that you've recently played with would help with this a lot, makes sure we can keep players in check.
