Many gamers resort to cheating to gain an unfair advantage in Marvel Rivals, employing tactics like auto-targeting for instant eliminations or shooting through walls for one-hit kills. This cheating problem is escalating within the game's community.
However, player reports suggest NetEase Games' anti-cheat measures are proving effective, successfully identifying and flagging suspicious activity within Marvel Rivals.
Dubbed by some as the "Overwatch killer," Marvel Rivals has seen a hugely successful Steam launch, boasting impressive sales figures. The game's first-day peak player count surpassed 444,000 – a number comparable to the population of Miami.
Optimization remains a key concern, with frame rate drops reported by players using graphics cards like the Nvidia GeForce 3050. Despite this, many players find the game enjoyable and appreciate its fair and accessible monetization system.
A significant positive is the non-expiring nature of battle passes. This eliminates the pressure to constantly grind, a feature that could significantly impact player perception of the game.
