Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has gone live for some Early Access players but it appears paying £30 for some cosmetic DLC and two days early access may not have been a good idea as the servers are now offline, you can’t play the game just an hour after it launched.
The reason for the server shut down is rather fabulous, assuming you’re not one of those rich sods who paid thirty quid more than everyone else. It appears that some players have logged in to the game for the very first time and found they had auto completed the entire campaign and unlocked all the end game goodies. That’s a pretty amazing bug, perhaps someone should have spotted before the game went live?
“We’re aware that a number of players are currently experiencing an issue whereby upon logging into the game for the first time, they have full story completion,” tweeted Rocksteady. “To resolve this issue, we will be performing maintenance on the game servers. During this time the game will be unavailable. We expect this to take several hours and will update once we have more information. We apologise for the inconvenience.”
Last week Rocksteady did say that the game would have “one of the most generous , player friendly post launch experiences available” and you have to admit that unlocking everything without even making the player finish the game is rather generous.
Last week we discovered the the first Season of free content will be focussed around The Joker, but as this game is set in the same universe as the Arkham games it is an alternate universe version of the character brought in to the Arkhamverse by Brainiac (Hello to Jason Isaacs).
This Joker was part of an Elseworlds version of the Suicide Squad so he’s rather more co-operative than you might expect, and he’s more like the original vaudevillian Joker from the Batman TV show that starred, Adam West . The Joker has a rocket powered umbrella to fly, glide and grind around the play area.
