Cheaters Add" Vote to kick option, real time kicking

Yes another blatant cheat openly and unashamedly cheating for all spectators to watch and yet the report button does nothing in real time! You should start thinking about adding (vote to boot play...

I would suggest 5 players reporting a cheat before the cheat gets KICKED from the server, it will reduce the chance of a team kicking someone because they got killed by a normal player.

I feel your frustration, i really do. I have had my moments against cheaters as well. Luckily we came out on top. But when someone downs 2 out of 3 squaddies that has full lvl 3 gear with and are spread out in the matter of 1 second. Something is wrong.

But adding a vote to kick is not the answer. It will be heavily abused.
We already see people griefing when they don't get the Legend they want. An average player easily gets over 5 kills in a round, and if your system where implemented. People would just get kicked. Every single kill leader would get kicked just for the funsies of the function.

I know something has to be done. But that is not the way to go im afraid.

I've played on vote to kick games before and I haven't seem any problems of abuse, yes my vote to kick idea needs tweaking, like allow remaining players to vote yes or no to kick.
I've played computer games for the last 31 years and I haven't seen cheating this bad in a long time, even when I played Delta Force Black Hawk Down and they were wall hacking and flying around with a grenade launcher.
Every 3 games I play on Apex Legends there has been at least one ESP and AIMBOT cheat, i've watched them in spectator mode all the way to end of the match just to see them win the match (OBS RECORDED), if you say you don't see these sort of people then I want your Match Making so I can play the game in peace. i only say this because i've read posts you made on other peoples comments saying you barely see any cheaters in game on Apex Legends.

  If you let remaining players vote, they will vote yes. Who doesn't want less competition and a bigger chance to win by crippling an enemy squad? I seriously doubt that a vote function is the way to go.
  
  I saw someone mention a 2 step verification to log in, what is the other step was a phone, that also got banned in the process. Making it harder for cheaters to create a second account with the same 2 step verification phone? That could be one way to deal with it.
  
  There is an increasing amount of cheaters in the EU servers right now, while other regions are already infested. I hope they find a way to deal with it soon. I really do.
  
  And no, i do not know Biochemikas, he seems like a clever guy with the right view on things do, as long as he agrees with me that is. :P
