Marvel Rivals, dubbed the "Overwatch killer," has enjoyed a hugely successful Steam launch, boasting over 444,000 concurrent players on its first day – a number rivaling the population of Miami. However, the game's success isn't without its challenges.
A rising concern among players is the increasing number of cheaters employing various tactics for unfair advantages, including auto-targeting, wall-hacking, and one-hit kills. Community feedback suggests NetEase Games' anti-cheat measures are showing positive results in detecting and addressing this issue.
Another key area of player feedback centers on optimization. Users with graphics cards like the Nvidia GeForce 3050 have reported noticeable frame rate drops. Despite this, many players find the game enjoyable, praising its accessible monetization and the significant benefit of non-expiring battle passes, eliminating the pressure of constant gameplay to maximize value. This feature alone could significantly influence player perception and enjoyment of the shooter.
