As if getting trolled by hackers isn't incentive enough I think it would be a good idea for rare to reward players somehow whether it's through special ship sails or pirate cosmetics for successfully reporting a hacker.
It's gotten to the point where Hourglass for one thing is almost unplayable. You have a good streak going and then bam hackers sink you and spam rolls on deck laughing the entire time.
I feel like if the community was rewarded or incentivized in someway hackers would be wiped of the Sea of Thieves very quickly the moment they pop in.
Reporting hackers in itself is a bit of a chore I've reported many myself and it's a lot of work for me to get good footage of a hacker hacking, compress footage, and the submit a report.
At least reward us somehow for doing this. Know what I mean?
