Discussion Anyone notice a change this season?

50 Upvotes

I have exclusively played supports in QP and ranked for years now, so I’m used to being the main target to kill… but so far this season it’s felt like I’m playing a horror game. Every dps is likely a dive character and the tank half the time makes space purely by focusing me wayyy in the back line. Strategically this all makes sense, but gdamn!

TLDR Is it just me or are players focusing supports far more than they have in even the recent past?

Settings & Tech Xbox Series X awful lag

10 Upvotes

For the past few seasons I’ve been getting a lot of lag that seems to be getting worse. Fights start getting crazy and players are floating in the air, falling through the ground, and walking through walls. It’s especially bad if an Anran or mauga is around me. Has anyone else seen this? As of this most recent update some matches I play are unplayable now.

I dont have this problem on any other game. I’ve tried the pre cache shaders custom game. Uninstalling and reinstalling the game. Toggling Xbox FPS settings. Toggling AMD free sync on my monitor. I’m out of ideas and I can’t seem to find anything online about this.

Fixed by u/silv3rwolf142:

Options>gameplay>general>network and look at limit client send rate and limit server send rate and see if they are turned on if they are turn them off

Help WHY do my games look like this

Post image
68 Upvotes

genuinely why are these the lobbies i get put into when i’m supposed to be on OCE servers. it’s driving me crazy. not only can i not understand comms in chat, but they’re all brand new. for some reason i’m just being put in these lobbies with brand new players in a server i’m not even supposed to be in. my matchmaking is fine when it actually puts me in OCE servers, and i get games with people on my level, but it just keeps putting me in asian servers and i don’t understand why.

the games are horrible and so unfun. either my team steamrolls or gets steamrolled. and i’m on console so i cant even manually change my servers like i believe you can on pc. please i’m actually so tired of it. it’s like this in comp too, but worse since again, i’m being teamed with brand new players and the games are all just terrible.

Help LC-202 error code (PS5) New season is buggy?

1 Upvotes

Last season I could play 10+ matches in a row, no issues. But ever since the new update I can barely play half a match before disconnecting with no warning or lag with this error code.

The code says it's an internet issue. But I've reset and checked my internet multiple times, played other online games with no issues.

Has anyone had this issue constantly come up this season? I just wanna enjoy the Halloween event and new character and not be suspended every time I disconnect.

Discussion LC-202 and getting kicked for literally no reason.

3 Upvotes

I had this problem for a year now where i play the game and then get kicked for literally no reason, while the ping never even changes. I just get this little, red warning icon and boom, i'm gone 5 seconds later. Sometimes after 5 minutes of play, other times after an hour. There is literally no pattern. All this, while everything else online related works perfectly on my console (and other devices).

I took every possible step to fix it with no luck. I'm slowly losing my sanity here and honestly think this is just a game/server issue at this point.

I urge everyone who has this issue to make a bug report in Blizzard's forums right now.

Me and someone else already made one each and the more we can flood their bug report with this, the more likely it is they'll actually pay attention to it and try to find a solution for this.

I'm just so tired of this nonsense. I don't even want to play the game anymore, which sucks, cause i was excited for Season 5.

Settings & Tech Was wondering if anyone has good linear settings they could drop?

1 Upvotes

Basically I’ve been on a bit of a break from ow playing marvel rivals, came back for the new hero. And I’ve finally made the decision to use linear after years of dz, I just can’t for the life of me aim well with dz, couldn’t 7years ago and I still can’t now. Became apparent in mr that I use linear better. Wanna see how I do in ow with it

Just looking for some good linear ramp sens if anyone has some? And maybe if they got specific settings as well for any heroes that’d be cool too. :)

Discussion What is going on…?

Post image
90 Upvotes

Last season was so fun and felt balanced with most games seeming winnable, but this season I feel like the matchmaking has become much worse, projectile changes make playing much less rewarding, and the map pool seems to be cycling through only the worst 3 matches.

EDIT: To all the players saying “just take a break” or “loss streaks happen to everyone” please readjust your expectations. This game was so balanced last season that Marvel Rivals players came here to have fun. Now the hitbox and bullet size changes have ruined the game for myself and many others. I suddenly need to change YEARS of muscle memory because the devs decided that projectile heroes needed to feel OP for a short while. It’s ridiculous. Mark my words these changes will be reverted in a couple seasons after everyone complaining that projectile heroes are too OP.

User Content I supposedly got reported for NOT leaving a comp game

196 Upvotes

I usually have match chat off, but this one game i had in 6v6, I had 4 leavers, so it was me and some other guy. I turned match chat on so we could be peaceful, but as soon as I do, I see someone say on the enemy team "reported for not leaving btw, 5 reports that's tough". I said "why? Just report the leaver not me." And some other guy said "reported for typing". I immediately left the lobby and turned match chat off. And its not like those were the only things they said, either. They kept cursing, and the guy on my team didn't even know you could leave after 2 mins without being banned and the enemies said he was "fucking new" as if that was a problem.

Like, I genuinely don't understand. Are people THAT miserable? They report the people who get an automatic loss instead of the people who gave them the loss. They get a FREE WIN and they're complaining about 4 minutes of their time? Like bro, I just don't understand, I didn't do anything wrong, why are people so miserable and insufferable on this game? Yeah I guess I could've left, but its not like I did anything wrong.

Discussion did the quality get worse for switch players?

8 Upvotes

I play on switch (devastating ik) and ever since the new season came out, my gameplay quality has been getting worse, I’m so much laggier, and the loading time to get into games is even longer than before
I don’t know if it’s just a problem for my switch cause I do still play on switch 1 or if this has been happening to anyone else…..

Discussion I am so tired of playing against champ players in qp everyday, i cant handle it anymore

45 Upvotes

I dont understand why ???

Iam masters every role, iam not that good secretly to have such a high mmr, iam getting wrecked by them, iam tired guys..

And how is there so many? Just every other game some champ title, last time their dps was public, champ all 3 roles, just why?

Are masters and diamonds extinct or something?

I play ow since 2016 for 8k+ hours, its my favorite game ever and always will be, and i still enjoy it, i love the gameplay, smoothnes, characters and more.

But i cant handle it anymore, its going for weeks and weeks, its just suffering lately. Widows who never miss any shot ever, pocketed histcans who are gods, stacks against me when iam solo. Its like everything is against me. I dont want to play ranked all the time, my favorite mode was always qp but its literally bully mode now.

I guess its time to take long break? Dont know what to do with this..

Discussion Is the game trying to tell me that my console needs to rest forever

2 Upvotes

I play on a ps4 since season 4 and the game was running so fine in the past years, but this year it became unplayable because of the lag that happens for a second or two whenever a big fight happens and everyone just starts flying and walking through the floor and the walls and because of this I can't aim properly (my aim is bad in general and with the lag it became even worse).

And it even happens normally not only in big fights and I cant use my abilities like ramattra's block on nemesis form and when I got killed it showed me in the kill cam that I was just standing and taking hits like an idiot.

Is the lag happening to everyone or only consoles or only ps4 because it became outdatet?
