While Marvel Rivals delivers thrilling gameplay, some players exploit its systems. NetEase Games provides reporting tools to flag suspicious activity - including a newly added option called "Bussing" that's causing player confusion.
When reporting players in Marvel Rivals, you'll find standard options like "Throwing" and "Griefing". The recent addition of "Bussing" doesn't refer to audio disruptions (like eating sounds), but rather describes players who team with cheaters to artificially boost their stats.
Marvel Rivals clarified this mechanic after player inquiries. A Reddit user (Kaimega13) shared an official response explaining: "'Bussing' refers to players deliberately partnering with cheaters to inflate rankings. Report any suspicious instances through this option." Proper identification requires understanding what constitutes this behavior.
Identifying Bussing Behavior
Spotting cheating teams in Marvel Rivals becomes apparent through repeated killcam reviews. Telltale signs include:
- Unnaturally precise aim
- Abnormal movement patterns
- Statistically improbable performance
However, not all teammates may be complicit. To properly identify Bussing:
- Observe full match duration when possible
- Analyze enemy team coordination
- Distinguish between skilled play and actual cheating
- Use in-game chat for additional context
Avoid indiscriminate reporting - some players may unknowingly join cheating teams. Thoughtful observation ensures accurate reporting.
Marvel Rivals is currently available on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S platforms.
