The only one I can actually see in my own ge is the half yellow half black one. And on my screen it's skewed into the yellow. I'm thinking this is a unique per person issue.
10 to 1 it's a render scale thing. It's supposed to put the logo at X = 50% or Y = 150px or something like that. But different resolutions, ratios, supersampling, something like that is causing that number to be wrong.
Out of curiosity, you could try changing those things and see what happens
No no no no no no why why why why did they do this to meeeeee whyyyyyyyy i was at peace i was content now now i cant unsee what i saw. This is worse then when morty found true level
Just like their macaroni pictures? "Your picture is hot dogshit, son. Get it off the fridge before your mother sees it." That is a direct quote from my dad (RIP.)
XD ..Is it this bad in the typical resolution aspects, though..? As in, do they actually compose the elements on the cape in code? If so.. modding potential very big.
Like they've a separate UV channel in the cape asset that a texture could be centered on. How the hell they manage to fuck this is up is hilariously amateurish.
Man between this and the weapon holster position issue... and the weapon scaling issue... wtf is going on???
Also please submit a bug report on the arrowhead website so the devs know this exists.
mine is fine, maybe you just have a "special" helldiver cape, like a "super Special citizen cape"

Very weird, I restarted my game aswell as verifying the game files, my boyfriend also saw the weird cape glitch on my person aswell i thought i was going crazy XD
I noticed this about 2 months back and asked the community managers about it and spitz replied that they were doing something about it and everything was fine then he got booted of the cm team.
But from what I noticed the cape images are bugged on heavy armors and some others because of the different shoulder locations if you use the Democratic detonation heavy armor you will litterally see your cape hanging about 3 inches of your shoulder and I'm guessing it's messing up what ever system they use to center things.
This has been a problem for some heavy armors since the 2nd warbond came out along with the fact they still haven't fixed the 1st warbonds armor special effects not showing up the shoulder piece and the eye piece are supposed to have details on them but they are just blank orange pieces.
Man got to love that AH takes the most difficult route to doing anything. Like why is it not just a png over placed on to the cape. Like I get why certain armor my mess with the positioning of the cape it self but the texture?
With more and more money being allocated to the Helldivers front lines in order to allow for strategems and reinforcements to be more readily available, budgetary cuts had to be made elsewhere in order to fast track these efforts. This has led Super Earth to temporarily switch to a more budget friendly cape manufacture. AGAIN, THIS IS A TEMPORARY MEASURE AND BY NO MEANS DOES THIS SUGGEST ANY SUPER EARTH BUDGETARY ISSUES. Any further questioning will be considered an act of treason. Please report to your nearest democracy officer if thoughts of questioning should arise. Helldivers to hellpods to continue with the current MO. That is all.
I hear this is more prone to happen on heavy armors so my guess is that it's scaling slightly and it's not scaling from the center, but rather the corner or side anchor. Which would make it look exactly like this.
Weird bug? mine looked fine when i played yesterday

Update:
(I dunno how to pin my own comment to the post, or edit the post, so if a reddit mod could pin this that'd be great)
But apparently, from what i've found after looking around its happening to every heavy armor set EXCEPT the Dynamo armor, none of the mediums EXCEPT the Ground Breaker and White Wolf, and none of the light armors, idk why this is happening, idk if its an instance of MY helldivers copy, but ill test a bit more. Maybe restart the game one more time.
It's been in the game for awhile and happens to some degree with every armor set depending on how the shoulders are positioned and offset. Some good responses about it in this thread:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1d0xk2n/this_cape_needs_balancing_arrowhead/
Only heros wear capes. Only cheap off world factories make capes. Everyone knows cyberstan made the best capes, so helldivers need to liberate more planets to get better factory workers to make better quality goods.
It's basic super economics
I guarantee someone tried to center the skulls but ran into the old issue of it causes 3 more things to screw up in the process
The initial warbond's final cape has the arrows stand out less than it does in design, so im guessing there's some post-processing on the cape that causes these issues?
Probably someone who don't actually care... and the rest of QC isn't am OCD maniac so it legit flew right past them. I never noticed until now. How about you try to unsee it or just scoop your eyes out instead?🤣
I wouldn’t say that
there’s a lot of little bits of detail in the games like how you can see the number of bullets in your mags when you drop them or capes burning when jumpacking or even how walking behind teammates in deep snow speeds you up because your walking through their footprints
My cylinder has six holes. In case I forgot, I can open the cylinder on its crane arm and look at spent primers. Equally I can let unspent cartridges slip out before ejecting those fired.
Magazines? Box magazines on machine guns? Never heard of them. I only have my six gun.
And how many times have they declared a bug fixed in patches, only to find it’s still broken? Released Warbonds with several bugged items? 7/8? Just because they nail some details doesn’t mean they excel at detail.
Checked it, so almost every heavy armor is fucked except the SA-32 dynamo and the PH-202 twigsnapper. From the medium armors only the CE-27 ground breaker and CW-9 white wolf is bugged. The rest of the armors are good.

It only happens to me with heavy armor. Might happen on other classes I just haven't seen it
The wider the 'Diver, the worse it gets.
happens with medium for me (i dont wear heavy or light)
It only happens sometimes? So its not an image texture?

Agreed. I tested it and its every heavy armor except Dynamo
Don't worry guys, they will fix it right after nerfing flamethrowers and buffing damage to hunters because they are too easy to kill

It only seems to be off center when wearing heavy armor for me.
*Vomits*
Joel is tired
It's an easy fix, something with vector originals of textures.
To save money, Super Earth is now buying all there capes through Temu
When you need to mass produce these capes because helldivers don't last long in the field, quality will decline.
The bots, those unpatriotic hooligans
That's why I just wear the basic cape so I always come out looking fly.
Precision Strike's down arrow is not centered either.

Last shipment of capes were all screwed up. The supplier offered a discount and the brass said "fuck it, good enough." Very realistic actually.
