Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League patch makes game “run worse” baffling players
A new patch has launched for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, however, instead of helping the beleaguered game, it seems that it’s only making it run worse.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has been through the wringer since it launched last month. While I ended up having a generally good time with it in our review, it’s messy and proved to be deeply controversial for fans of the heroes you’re tasked with killing.
In the ensuing weeks though, it seems there might be something going on with the story. Hints that not everything is as it seems on the surface, with rumors of the Justice League’s return as good guys circulating around the upcoming seasons. This promised a potential new life with brand new context.
However, Suicide Squad has seemingly taken another misstep that’s leaving those still playing struggling to defend it. A new patch has just been released, however, instead of cleaning up issues, it has reportedly only made the game more unstable. This has understandably left many players scratching their heads.
The game’s latest patch has some players quitting for now
The game’s Reddit is awash with threads of players sharing issues with the patch that has made it harder to play.
In one thread, a user decried that they won’t be playing until it gets a new patch. “2 of my achievements are broken, I haven’t been able to load in successfully more and more as each patch drops.” Another said: “Load times are a lot slower for me at least on console. It takes 5 mins just to get into the game.”
Others are explaining that they are failing to load in after completing endgame incursions resulting in lost progress. There is currently a bug report thread on the game’s website that is getting traction with many concurring that they can’t leave the end screen for missions, as Metropolis is refusing to load. “Since this patch, I can’t play incursions without getting this afterward. Hope they fix it soon”. It’s also being reported that some players can’t progress the endgame tiers either, effectively killing the grind for them.
This is all salt in the wound for the game that has already had a troubled launch. You’d hope it’d be moving in the right direction to make an eventual comeback as seasons take off next month, but for the time being, it seems its woes will continue a while longer.
