The fan-favorite game — Marvel Rivals has been accused of adding bots in the game in the quickplay matches and players are not enjoining it all.

Players Raise Concerns Over Bot-Filled Matches

Although everyone likes it when it comes to killing a bot, the free kill point but the increased number of these characters ruin the original essence of the installment, reducing the competitive environment. 

These suspicions began to grow when players noticed certain matchmaking pattern after losing matches more than once. As they dived into the next one, they felt the presence of more bot which eventually led to the easy win, avoiding frustration among players coming from losing matches multiple times.

This may also offer opportunity to the struggling fighters either new or old to stay motivated and continue to play the game.  While it may seem a good aspect, the Marvel Rivals community is raising concerns regarding the fairness of the game.

Besides this some think that bots are added so that players don’t have to wait too long to find a match. 

Fantastic Four’s Arrival Highlights Game’s Bot Issues

Adding fuel to the controversy, Season 1 has introduced the Fantastic Four characters, among which Invisible Woman and Mister Fantastic right away joined the roster while the other two: The Thing and Human Torch will make an appearance later.

Now those using Invisible Woman on their team have discovered something or it’s more like a trick, when she uses her ability to get invisible bots can’t detect her and don’t move, serving no benefit to the team.

The Reddit user shared a video showcasing this clever trick. In the clip, it can be seen that the Invisible Woman is using her ability while the enemy in front of her is not able to see and they just stop moving, and as soon as she comes back to her normal state then they move around and leash out the attack. 

The introduction of these Fantastic Four characters in Season 1 added diversity to the heroes and but this bot actions linked with the Invisible Woman’s ability has brought attention to the major problem.

Players are finding it strange because it shows that even if the enemies are bot they are lacking alot, not even acting properly like an opponent. Marvel Rivals isn’t the first game who has bots in the matches, but still they need to be smart. 

Right now NetEase hasn’t mentioned anything regarding this issue and players are waiting for confirmation if the game actually involves bots or if this is something else.

Marvel Rivals has also joined hands with Nvidia Geforce, enhancing the access to players irrespective of their devices, even those with average PCs can play the game. The developers are shaping it into the iconic game but they need to sort out the bugs or problems to ensure a flawless gaming experience.
