Marvel Rivals Bug Imperils Players with Laggy PCs

A shocking discovery on Reddit reveals a game-breaking bug in Marvel Rivals that disproportionately affects players with less powerful PCs. Low FPS (frames per second) directly impacts several heroes, causing reduced movement speed and damage output! This effectively transforms Marvel Rivals, already a demanding game, into a pay-to-win experience where the "payment" is upgrading your PC hardware.

This is undeniably a bug, not an intended game mechanic. However, a swift fix isn't guaranteed. The core problem stems from the Delta Time parameter – a crucial element for maintaining consistent game performance regardless of frame rate. Addressing this complex issue requires significant developer time and effort.

Currently, the following heroes are confirmed to be affected:

  • Doctor Strange
  • Wolverine
  • Venom
  • Magik
  • Star-Lord

These characters exhibit slower movement, reduced jump height, and decreased damage. The possibility of other affected heroes remains. Until a patch is released, players are advised to prioritize increasing their FPS, even if it means compromising graphical settings.
