Despite *Marvel Rivals*' enjoyable gameplay, some players exploit the system, prompting NetEase Games to implement a reporting system for suspicious activity. Recently, a new reportable offense, "Bussing," has emerged, causing some confusion. This guide explains what Bussing is and how to identify it.
What Is Bussing in Marvel Rivals?
When reporting players in Marvel Rivals, options like "Throwing" and "Griefing" are familiar. The addition of "Bussing" is new. Contrary to casual interpretations, it doesn't refer to in-game voice chat issues. Instead, Bussing describes players intentionally teaming with cheaters to artificially inflate their stats and rankings. Marvel Rivals confirmed this definition following a player inquiry on Reddit (via Dexerto). The game's response clarified that reporting this involves identifying players who team up with cheaters to boost their game rankings.
How To Catch Bussing in Marvel Rivals
Identifying cheaters in Marvel Rivals often involves observing suspicious gameplay. Unnaturally accurate shots or unnatural movement patterns are common red flags. While easily identifiable in some cases, the challenge lies in differentiating between legitimate players and those participating in Bussing.
To effectively report Bussing, you might need to remain in a match and observe the enemy team's behavior. Some players might appear unskilled or average, leading to the question of whether they are unwitting participants or genuinely unskilled players. Avoid hasty reports. Instead, gather evidence by observing their actions and potentially engaging in in-game communication to gather more information.
