Obviously just damage control but they do seem to be "fixing it". They must've accidentally implemented a feature to get and show image from the newest news post (which is often an ad), accidentally tested and vetted that feature, and accidentally pushed it.
Just a heads up, it's fine. It's a fine shooter. It's not more than that, the story isn't brilliant, the online is a bit tedious (and customisation is limited at best for loyalists and almost entirely non-existent for heretics). The gameplay is fun enough. I've got like 20 hours out of it, I would say 14 of those were fun. I gave in and bought it too early ๐
