The hitbox in Marvel Rivals is controversial

Marvel Rivals, the hotly anticipated "Overwatch killer," has launched to impressive success on Steam, boasting a peak concurrent player count exceeding 444,000 on its first day – a number rivaling the population of Miami. However, the game's launch hasn't been without its challenges. A significant point of contention centers around optimization issues. Players using graphics cards such as the Nvidia GeForce 3050 have reported noticeable frame rate drops.

Despite optimization concerns, the overwhelmingly positive player sentiment highlights Marvel Rivals' engaging gameplay. Many praise the game's fun factor and value proposition, emphasizing that it's a worthwhile investment of time and money. Furthermore, the game's straightforward revenue model contributes to a more relaxed player experience. A key aspect of this model is the non-expiring nature of battle passes, eliminating the pressure-cooker environment often associated with time-limited in-game content. This feature alone could significantly influence player perception and long-term engagement.

Separately, a concerning issue highlighted on the game's Reddit involves inconsistent hit detection. Videos showcasing the game's hitboxes (the invisible collision geometry) reveal instances where Spider-Man lands hits on Luna Snow from an improbable distance. Other examples show hits registering despite visually missing their target. While some attribute this to lag compensation, many believe the core problem lies within the flawed hitbox implementation itself. Professional players have even demonstrated a consistent bias in hit registration, with shots to the right of the crosshair consistently connecting, while those to the left frequently miss. This points to a potentially widespread hitbox malfunction across multiple characters.
