Developed by NetEase Games, the free-to-play game features a wealth of characters some loved and some hated from the world of Marvel competing in fast-paced, team-based matches in a bid to secure victory.Marvel Rivals anti-cheat also features strict anti-cheat measures that ensure competitive integrity is maintained across casual and competitive matches. To prevent any kind of repeat offenders from reappearing in lobbies, the anti-cheat is dishing out huge bans that Call of Duty could learn from to curb its own infestation of cheaters ruining Black Ops 6 and Warzone.The 100-year Marvel Rivals banTo highlight the effectiveness of Marvel Rivals anti-cheat, X user UnproblematicMr shared a post from the games customer service team revealing that a recent report had resulted in the cheater in question receiving a ban lasting the next 100 years.As expected, the huge length of the ban has caught players attention wondering if Marvel Rivals reporting system will yield results. Yes! I will be reporting every time now! says one player.Issuing such lengthy bans in Marvel Rivals may seem excessive but the measures are an excellent deterrent for those considering gaining an unfair advantage over the opposition. A ban lasting an entire century is an unorthodox method to combat cheating, but its one that Call of Duty could utilise to its advantage.While other games such as Delta Force aim to curb the cancer that is cheating, CoDs Ricochet system has proven ineffective compared to its contemporaries. Marvel Rivals can issue a ban to a cheater in mere minutes, but CoD is constantly banning the wrong people and letting cheaters roam free. Since the launch of Black Ops 6 and the integration of Treyarchs release into Warzone, hackers have infested standard game modes and Ranked Play resulting in Activision admitting its own anti-cheat has missed the mark. Banning Call of Duty hackers with a hundred-year ban could be the answer to the publishers ongoing problems.The best solution?Marvel Rivals continues to be the talk of the town as millions of players load into the action. NetEase Games has implemented measures that are strong enough to deter and prevent hackers from rejoining matches resulting in an environment where cheaters are unable to prosper.Well have to wait and see if other developers follow a similar process to combat their own hacking issues but for the time being, Marvel Rivals anti-cheat is ensuring nothing is slowing down its momentum.For more Marvel Rivals, take a look at the best Duelists and DPS characters to pick along with a closer look at how to master Venom.Marvel RivalsPlatform(s):macOS, PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series XGenre(s):Fighting, ShooterSubscribe to our newsletters!By subscribing, you agree to our Privacy Policy and may receive occasional deal communications; you can unsubscribe anytime.Share
