Frame rate no longer impacts mouse sensitivity causing weird input responses.
Messages with quotation marks now send reliably without hiccups.
Maps & Modes:
Several terrain glitches patched to prevent characters from getting stuck or clipping through the environment.
Heroes:
Loki’s Deathly Illusions: Sorted out camera angle glitches during Past Lives replays when Loki’s Ultimate triggers. Mischief managed flawlessly now!
The Thing’s Leap: Fixed speed inconsistencies in the Embattled Leap seen under laggy conditions—Ben Grimm leaps steady and strong again.
Venom’s Airborne Bug: Venom will no longer hang awkwardly mid-air after his Ultimate under unstable network conditions. He’ll stick to his style and burrow underground smoothly.
Peni Parker’s Invisible Mines: Arachno-Mines now stay visible even if they cross Cyber-Webs boundaries, so enemies won’t slip past unnoticed.
Peni’s Spider-Drones: No more sneaky floor-penetrating escapes for her self-destructing Spider-Drones when webs are above and below—these bugs know their limits now.
Namor’s Ultimate Quirk: Fixed a rare glitch where Namor’s Ultimate would fail to deal damage if used mid-air after Jeff the Land Shark spat him out.
Bucky’s Reload Fix: Winter Soldier’s Tainted Voltage automatic reload now triggers correctly after firing followed by Trooper’s Fist use—Bucky’s fire stays relentless.
Bionic Hook Visual Bug: Winter Soldier’s arm visuals no longer glitch after using Bionic Hook during slow-motion match-over moments.
Wolverine’s Dive Precision: Fixed rare mismatch between animation and effects when Wolverine dives from high points with his Ultimate. Logan’s strikes land sharp and true.
Keep your eyes peeled—more electrifying updates and surprises are on the way. Stay ready, Rivals!
