A recent patch for Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League has sparked community backlash, as many fans say the update actually introduced more problems than it fixed.
Released on February 21st, the patch aimed to resolve crashes, progression blocking bugs, connectivity problems and improve server performance according to developer Rocksteady. However, numerous players began reporting new issues not present prior to the patch.
Problems cited range from game freezes and soft locks to missions not progressing properly. Fan frustrations have flooded Reddit and other forums, with many feeling the patch regressed the overall experience. One user said the update “shouldn’t have made it through cert,” while others have shelved the game until future fixes arrive.

The rocky patch comes on the heels of an already turbulent launch for Suicide Squad. Early access players in January were met with rampant bugs and server outages. Rocksteady later compensated buyers of the $100 deluxe edition with in-game currency, but fan confidence remains shaky.
However, experiences aren’t universal. Some fans reported the patch fixed crashes without any new issues arising. But consensus leans negative, with update 1.04 clearly missing the mark in delivered improvements for many.
This highlights the unpredictability of major patches, where some problems get addressed while new ones emerge. For now, Rocksteady faces renewed pressure to smooth out the game’s erratic technical performance. Until stability is achieved, the Suicide Squad community’s frustrations are unlikely to be vanquished.
