Despite *Marvel Rivals*' enjoyable gameplay, some players exploit the system, prompting NetEase Games to implement reporting features. Recently, a new reportable offense, "Bussing," has emerged, causing some confusion. Let's clarify 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 newly added "Bussing" isn't about in-game audio disturbances. Instead, it refers to players intentionally teaming with cheaters to artificially inflate their stats and rankings. This was confirmed by Marvel Rivals in response to a player inquiry on Reddit (via Dexerto): "‘Bussing’ typically refers to players intentionally teaming up with cheaters to boost their game rankings. If you notice any related anomalies, you can report the player by selecting the option." Knowing how to spot Bussing is crucial for effective reporting.
How to Catch Bussing in Marvel Rivals
Identifying cheaters in Marvel Rivals often involves observing killcams. Unnaturally accurate shots or unusual movement patterns are telltale signs. However, not all teammates of cheaters are necessarily cheating themselves.
To identify Bussing, you might need to stay in the match longer to investigate the enemy team. Observe their actions and movements carefully. If some players seem legitimate while others are clearly cheating, the former might be unwittingly participating in Bussing. Avoid hasty reports; take your time and even try communicating with the enemy team via in-game chat to gather more information before reporting.
