Many Marvel Rivals players, particularly those using mouse and keyboard, have reported aiming difficulties during Season 0 – Doom's Rise. The culprit? The game's default mouse acceleration/aim smoothing. This feature, while beneficial for controller users, often hinders precise aiming for mouse users, impacting flick shots and overall accuracy. Fortunately, a simple fix exists. This guide explains how to disable this feature without resorting to mods or cheats.
Unlike many games, Marvel Rivals lacks an in-game setting to toggle mouse acceleration/aim smoothing. However, you can directly modify the game's settings file. This is a standard process; the game file updates whenever you adjust in-game settings like crosshair or sensitivity.

file and open it with Notepad.[/script/engine.inputsettings]
bEnableMouseSmoothing=False
bViewAccelerationEnabled=False
bDisableMouseAcceleration=False

This simple adjustment prioritizes raw mouse input, enhancing aiming control and precision for a more responsive gameplay experience.
