Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League's Latest Trailer Is Getting Ratio'd

thegamer.com:

Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League finally revealed its gameplay at PlayStation's State of Play, but it isn't going down well. Arkham's rhythmic revolutionary beat-em-up combat has been ditched in favour of generic shooting mechanics complete with oodles of percentage-laden loot, drawing comparisons to Gotham Knights, Marvel's Avengers, and even Crackdown 3.

We get to see Boomeraag's gun, a sniper, which deals 5019-5331 damage per hit (good luck figuring out what that means), has 283 percent critical hit damage (big number!) and "+50 percent damage to Crazed enemies".

While loot that's colour-coded and filled with red and green numbers to flip the serotonin switch is getting criticised, so is the movement. Everyone can fly. King Shark? Flies. Boomerang? You know it. Even Harley Quinn does thanks to an overhead drone, which is a similar complaint we saw with Gotham Knights, particularly Red Hood who used the souls of the damned to leapfrog
