Theres a huge problem for the new streamer mode (hiding names)
The issue is that we can't report cheaters anymore because we can't click on their profile

You don't need to include SteamIDs in a ticket anymore.
I guess the only solution for this is to show the profile names after the game ends, so survivors streamers won't get snipped and we can't report someone that's using cheat
you can still report cheaters.
in the process of reporting a cheater, they ask for your ID. then, presumably, they'll go through your match history and find the game where you reported someone for cheating. you can report crossplatform this way, which is a concession i'm sure they made when they released the game on epic.
streamer mode won't protect cheaters at all. it'll only protect streamers.
Wonder how that'll work with streamer griefers.
who i'm going to report if with the new option you can only block the player? no option to report ingame
the report option is the little thumbs up/down button that appears when you mouseover their spot on the end screen. it opens the menu where you can either "give props", or you can report them under various categories. if you report them for cheating, you have to take a video and send a followup ticket to support. mention in your ingame report that you're sending a ticket, and mention in your ticket that you sent an ingame report, otherwise they probably won't respond to it (or at least won't respond to just one. perhaps if they see someone get 50 reports for cheating they'll look into it without a ticket, i don't know how things work on that kind of level)
I made this mistake as well, considering how integral that step had been to reporting I kind of forgot about the thumbs up/down button that deckyr above mentions.
unless they use a smurf, it probably wont.
