Marvel Rivals Devastating Bug Inflicts FPS Lag

A recently discovered bug in Marvel Rivals severely disadvantages players with less powerful computers. Low FPS (frames per second) directly impacts several heroes, causing reduced movement speed and damage output. This effectively creates a pay-to-win scenario, where players are forced to upgrade their PC hardware instead of simply purchasing in-game items.

This is undoubtedly a significant bug, not an intended game mechanic. However, a swift fix is unlikely due to the complex nature of the problem. The root cause involves the Delta Time parameter, a crucial element for maintaining consistent game performance regardless of frame rate. Addressing this requires considerable development time.

Currently, the following heroes are known to be affected: Doctor Strange, Wolverine, Venom, Magik, and Star-Lord. These characters exhibit slower movement, reduced jump height, and decreased damage. Other heroes may also be impacted. Until a patch is released, players are advised to optimize their FPS settings, potentially compromising visual fidelity for improved gameplay.
