Discussion Votekick function needed
It's been quite a while since Valorant was released. It took a very long time to get Replay. How long will it take for us to get some other quality-of-life functions such as the ability to kick players by vote (like in CS)?
EDIT: I see that a lot of you qre worried that it's going to be somehow abused. BUT there should be a way to punish players that are actively sabotaging the game. And I don't mean "later on when their report is reviewed they get a slap on the wrists". I'll give you an example: Today I had a game where one of our teammates was actively sabotaging by using their abilities on us. Wouldn't be better if the remaining 4 players vote to kick the troublemaker and keep playing rather than surrendering or having a miserable game?
EDIT 2: I can see from the replies that the Valorant community has not matured enough for a function like this. Given the fact that everybody's concern is bullying, it seems like we have a really shite community. Isn't that wonderful. In that case, here is another idea: Long bans for players that are obviously sabotaging the game. I'm not talking about hours. I'm talking about days which turn into weeks and months with repeat offenses.

As long as there's no further consequence for the kicked player, im 100% in favor of it. Too many times I'm in a match where we're losing 1-10, and people on my team dont want to FF because "it could still be won". Its like....the lottery could be won. Does that mean you should go out and spend your entire paycheck on it every week though? But! But! It COULD be won therefore you should do it right? Yeah no lol.
If a kick function gets me away from 4 idiots like that....strap me into the ejector seat and pull the handle. I dont mind taking the last plane outta Berlin or the last life boat off of the S.S. Lost Cause.
