Lobby management suggestions

when hosting a lobby, there are some problems lobby hosts have to deal with regarding cheaters/griefers and general people not willing to race cleanly, so here are my 3 simple suggestions, easily implemented in the game:

1. Allow to kick more than 1 driver. currently, when you kick someone from the lobby, you cannot kick anyone else. why is this? let me kick multiple people if they are griefing other racers.
2. Allow to kick someone during gameplay, if im hosting a race, and i see someone purposely ramming people off, just let me pause, select the driver from the race director menu, and select ''kick''.
3. Allow to REPORT someone during gameplay. cheaters will just ruin a lobby, and then leave as soon as you should be able to report him for cheating. so he avoids getting ANY reports on him.

this would help you guys aswell on kicking cheaters from the game

  • @i660z4e6yn0y All of them are good suggestions however I don’t see number 2 happening due to Codemasters worrying about a host kicking whoever is in first place so that they can win

    this is talking about online open lobbies, there is no glory in winning a ''championship'' there.

    the problem is, im racing with 5 friends, we have alot of random people joining which is pretty cool. 90% of those random people behave, but we have 2 or 3 random idiots intentionally taking people out turn 1 by just not braking. now who am i supposed to kick as the lobby host? im having to decide between 2 or 3 people, who are all not welcome in my lobby, yet i can only kick one, having to deal with idiots again for the next race.

    my bad, i thought you meant solution 1. on solution 2, there again, there is no glory in winning a race when you kicked the leader of it out. kicking during a race is purely there so you can kick griefers and cheaters (of which the open lobbies are now RIDDLED with)
