NetEase Games has announced a ban on keyboard and mouse adapters in Marvel Rivals on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles. The use of adapters like XIM, Cronus Zen, Titan Two, KeyMander, and Brook Sniper, which simulate gamepad input from a keyboard and mouse, is considered a violation of the game's terms of service. This is due to the unfair competitive advantage provided by increased control precision and aiming assistance retention.
NetEase employs sophisticated detection methods to identify adapter usage with high accuracy, resulting in account suspensions for violators. The company explicitly states that these devices create an uneven playing field, particularly in competitive game modes.
Separately, a correlation has been observed between higher FPS and increased ping in Marvel Rivals. While the impact may be less noticeable with already high ping, a significant jump (e.g., from 90ms to 150ms) can severely hinder gameplay. This issue appears linked to frame rate. Until a patch addresses this, players are advised to experiment with different FPS settings to find an optimal balance between frame rate and ping. Some players suggest maintaining an FPS around 90 as a temporary solution, although this may contrast with strategies in other games.
