    New Episode: Birds of Prey

Team-up with the street-level heroes and villains of the Birds of Prey team: Black Canary, Huntress, Catwoman, Poison Ivy, and their newest member - Harley Quinn - to find out.

    Travel from Metropolis’ burning LexCorp Tower to Luthor’s hidden lair, and for the first time: Oracle’s Clock Tower HQ! You never know what to expect where Luthor’s involved, so be ready for anything, from Lobo to Amazo to Brimstone: a towering threat from the heart of Apokolips!

    New Open World Missions – BoP: Metropolis

    Metropolis descends into a battle royale after Lex Luthor broadcasts to the world that he's leaving his wealth, technology, and weapons to anyone willing to take them. Crime is rampant and the Birds of Prey are on the case! Each of the Birds of Prey has a mission for players in the new open world. For example, Heroes will help Huntress fight crime while Villains partner with Catwoman for a piece of the action!

    Does it have to be all of them or even just Huntress or Canary is good?

    Edit: Talking about the screenshot competition.

    Bug feedback: Beating the Metahuman Experiment doesn't always complete the mission. My first attempt (so far) didn't give me credit.
  5. Captain1Dynamo Committed Player


    Did you talk to Lois Lane? You have to see her to complete the mission (just like you had to do with Martian Manhunter in Metal II). But she does not have any kind of exclamation point or other graphic designation to let you know you need to speak to her. So that should be changed, devs.

    And by changed, you should eliminate the requirement to go all the way back to the hub to talk to Lois. The mission should auto complete as soon as Trenton is beaten.
  6. Ully Committed Player

    The open world and the elite raids are unplayable right now because of extreme lag.
  7. Vicious Well-Known Player

    The mission didn't complete. There was nothing to hand in to her. I ran it again in another phase and it worked.

    Other people in my phase had the same thing, they didn't get credit for the bounty despite being in the fight.
  8. Captain1Dynamo Committed Player

    Devs, a lot of problems with glitches in the Alert, please look into it.
  9. Brother Allen Loyal Player

    I'm being told by League mates that the game is to laggy to currently do the raids.
  10. Captain1Dynamo Committed Player


    Played 10 toons before I had this problem. In my case was in heal role, not part of a group. This is a problem with some other bounties as well. In DPS role, no problem completing whether solo or grouped.

    There's a glitch in the 4-player where when Superman doesn't go into the dome amazo uses Green lantern shield and doesn't do nothing else

    Hard game crash in new alert during last boss if too close to turrets during phase. Plus extra lag spike on all stairways and rallys.
  14. Vicious Well-Known Player

    Just for reference, I was in DPS role when the bug hit me. But yeah I wasn't in a group. Was definitely actively fighting though. I was the guy blowing up all the ads with the RPG lol.
  15. Irvynnge Loyal Player

    yeah, just got out of there, meself. same thing. couldn't warp because I was locked in combat, so had to switch character to get out. shame. I'm sure they'll sort it, though.
  16. Dauntless II New Player
