Valorant gamer trying out NetEase’s rising hero shooter? If you’re one of the players who are immediately intrigued by Marvel Rivals after its big launch, you might be eager to land your fingers on its controls very early. However, due to the difference between these two games, adjusting the Marvel Rivals sensitivity to match your Valorant settings may be needed for smoother gameplay.
Let’s get into it. We’ll walk you through the steps on how to convert your Valorant sensitivity to Marvel Rivals.
Why Sensitivity Matters
Precise mouse sensitivity can make or break your gameplay. When switching from Valorant to Marvel Rivals, your muscle memory is your most valuable asset. With the right sensitivity, you can:
- Track fast-moving superhero characters
- Improve aiming accuracy
- Reduce adjustment time between games
Incorrectly converted sensitivity settings can throw off your aim and reduce your performance in the game.
The Conversion Formula: Valorant Sensitivity To Marvel Rivals
The most common recommendation in converting sensitivity settings involves some simple maths.
Specifically, you’ll just have to multiply your Valorant sensitivity by 3.2 or 4. For example, if you have your Valorant sensitivity at 0.5, you can set your Marvel Rivals sensitivity to either 1.6 (at 3.2 multiplier) or 2.0 (at 4 multiplier). This method is based on rough estimates and you can adjust it further based on your own feel.
Another option for players that come from Valorant or even other shooter games is to find a third-party website. There are a lot that offer to convert your sensitivity settings in these games to what would be its equivalent in Marvel Rivals. This can give you a more precise calculation and other features about changing your control settings. Just ensure that your mouse DPI remains consistent.
Setting Your Marvel Rivals Sensitivity: Step-by-Step
- Open your Marvel Rivals settings menu.
- Go to the ‘Keyboard’ tab and select ‘Combat’.
- You’ll see the ‘Mouse’ section on top and the settings that allow you to control the sensitivity.
- Enter your converted sensitivity for both Horizontal and Vertical axes.
After converting to these initial values, play a few practice games and see if you like or are more likely to be comfortable with them. If things still feel a bit jarring or isn’t as smooth as your Valorant moves, you can fine-tune it further until it suits your taste.
Tips for Fine-Tuning Sensitivity
While the basic conversion helps, remember that Marvel Rivals differs from Valorant in several key ways:
- Field of View changes from first-person in Valorant to third-person in Marvel Rivals
- Due to fast-paced combat, tracking targets is more crucial than precise angle holding
To fine-tune, here’s the recommended approach:
- Adjust vertical sensitivity slightly lower (30-40%) if tracking feels off
- Play several matches to develop new muscle memory
Due to the difference in field of view and game pace, even with the same sensitivity settings, you may still take a bit of time getting used to the change. It’s just repeating this until you get the right settings so you can play even smoother.
Conclusion
Converting your Valorant sensitivity to Marvel Rivals isn’t an exact science, but these guidelines will help you start on the right foot. Every player’s experience is unique, so don’t be afraid to make subtle adjustments until you find your perfect settings. As you keep playing the game, the transition will feel more natural and you’ll find yourself fully immersed in the world of Marvel Rivals.
