It is a problem on the PS4 for sure. We need the option to vote to kick out players. There are way to many freeloaders in the game.
the vote to kick bs is * in many games people will vote to kick out ANYONE for ANYTHING such as if someone is getting sick of a troll on a team do they kick the troll? * no they kick out the guy getting rightfully salty cause they dont wanna listen to his *ing until they get trolled by the same idiot
what needs to be done in a game is a no damage auto boot timer basically after about 5 minutes give or take if said person hasnt done even a single point of damage to any player or ai depending on the mode they are booted from the game for being obviously idle but to keep that system from being fooled you need to be doing more then 50 damage in a 2 to 3 minute span or the counter wont restart to keep people from just pecking at an ai opponent every 4 minutes

I agree about how poorly people use kick in another games.
I don't agree with "boot after no damage to another player after 5 minutes". My Engineer says hello. Granted, it's not the same as in GW1 where I could spend a couple of minutes just on building turrets (since you could upgrade each three times), but what if all I am doing is trying to find and open a portal and don't care to shoot anyone, KO after KO? Everyone has different play styles. But what about poor aim, or getting killed right before the garden/graveyard is taken, and there is no portal left? Say you get distracted for one or two minutes with Real Life(tm). You've got precious little time to book it across what could be a very large map, and you don't know you're down to the wire, what if you're a super slow moving Pirate and taking time to aim at fast moving targets if you do get up to the action? I'd be pissed if I got booted while actively moving toward my goal.
There may not be a good solution to those who just "do nothing" but aren't necessarily idling. Keep in mind that there are also golden gnomes hidden in every single multiplayer map. On Zen Garden during a multiplayer match, I got knocked over a ledge and somehow had maneuvered to the point where I stumbled into the secret area behind the waterfall. I then decided to try and hunt down some more for a bit.
I feel like idle is the only way to solve this problem, which kind of leaves us where we are right now :/
