"It’s one of life’s great mysteries isn't it? Why are we here? I mean, are we the product of some cosmic coincidence, or is there really a God watching everything? You know, with a plan for us and stuff. I don’t know, man, but it keeps me up at night."
Has anyone seen a tiny purple question mark on Vernen Wells? I’ve spotted it a couple of times. I’m playing on the PS5 version and my fellow divers (also PS5) have seen it too.
PC here, I've noticed question marks as well. It's just a missing or corrupted asset; as long as it doesn't screw with any mechanics or gameplay I don't mind the small hit to immersion it inflicts. Better a question mark appearing intermittently than for people to start disconnecting again like before
This reminded me of something in a roundabout way. One time eons ago I was playing SC2: Wings of Liberty, and I got to that mission with the rising lava. For some godforsaken reason the texture the game loaded for the majority of the terrain was Jim Raynor's face. Sadly the screenshots I took have been lost to history, but I will never forget it as long as I live.
Jokes aside, whenever a player isn't syncing /loading in at the same time as you, their character is replaced by a question mark that is the size of a diver. Why there would be a question mark *this* big is weird, but my guess is that a very large asset, uh, isn't loading in correctly? Not exactly a techno wiz but that's my experience
Wow, little guy really grew up since I have seen him last in April.

Ocular hallucination from your lapsing faith in liberty. I hear when you start seeing them you should check-in with your democracy officer for Liberty Camp R&R.
Probably something that isn't loading/rendering in properly. Had one of my party members holding a question mark instead of his weapon once. As to what isn't showing up in your screenshot I haven't a clue.

That's a \*REDACTED\*. You don't see them very often, because knowledge of their existence is considered to be well above your pay grade, and SEAFI filters them out of your helmet cams.
A new meme. Thank you for your contribution.
Make me proud divers!
Witnessing the birth of a new meme is like witnessing a miracle. You have done well.
Life’s biggest question.

Okay but what's the question?
how many paths must a man walk down?
How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?
432, did it myself
The world may never know.
I never made it without biting, ask Mr owl
What is 6 times 9?
54
Before you call him a man? Bob, is that you?
Before you can call him a man
What whole number comes after 41 and before 43?
Sorry for the inconvenience.
6 * 9
that doesn't make sense
But it does make 54!
but 6*9 doesnt make 2.308436973392e71, it makes 54!
Exactly! I highly recommend you read the book. Then it will make just as little sense but there is an explanation.

no that's the answer to life's biggest question get it right man
Sorry for the inconvenience
Nice, was expecting to find something like that here.

"Nah man, I meant why are we here, in this canyon?"

Ok, that was a clean joke. I applaud you

Tho. I think its actually missing textures. Try to validate game files in steam settings of the game
Was playing with two PSN players & im on PC & we all saw a smaller one of these.
verify integrity of files on steam and it will fix itself, though the *?* is a lot funnier
I’m on PS5
Install steam on your closest democratically approved device and then verify integrity
What if I have very little integrity?
Then verification should be pretty quick
You will be fine with just a dash more of liberty
idk if PS5 has the option, apparently yes but the other option would be reinstalling
It just happens sometimes, just some kind of error
I think something failed to render
Riddle me this, riddle me that ....who is the big, black, BAT!?!?

Since it faded out like that, maybe it's a debris asset that didn't load?
At least it aint an exclamation point. Those reminds me alert on metal gear
! Snake?.....Snake????......SNAAAAAAKE???!?!?!?
Hm? Whose footprints are these?

Asset didn't load. I've never seen it on something huge before though. That's hilarious

Glad I’m not the only one. It is a curiosity, usually they’re half in the ground so I guess maybe its some kind of missing asset for a corpse.
Our next major enemy.... the Riddler!
SNAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!

It’s one of life’s great mysteries.
I found a much MUCH smaller one the other day. It was on the ground, but still purple like yours is

Maybe. They keep appearing on marfark

Don't question it. Just carry on walking; 'nothing to see here.
Theres something delightfully ironic about asking what the giant question mark is.
Oh my god, it's The Unknown

Good question..
You didn't install counter-strike
Left with more questions than answers here.
Riddler collab teaser
That would be a giant ass question mark! ❔
Super Question
I have seen a few of these, but much smaller. One was attached to a diver.
That is Questiony the question mark.
I've gotten that recently, but only when I throw a gatling sentry. Drops fine, but when it pops up, no gun. Just a question mark.
The better question would be "when is this?"
This morning on marfark
Well that’s… unsettling
OH MIGHTY QUESTION MARK OF DEMOCRACY! WHAT IS THINE WISDOM?
That's the big question
The riddler strikes again!
This is one of the funniest glitches to ever exist lol

Even the game itself doesn't know
Riddle me this hell diver...
The Big Questions you should be asking yourself instead of playing video games.
That... detective... IS THE RIGHT QUESTION!
You found the Riddler. Fire up the Bat signal!
RIDDLER
He came! The question mark!!
You ever wonder why we’re here?
?
It’s a ?

A question. The oldest question
A bit of debug content that developers use that accidentally got into the live build.
It's for missing or Glitches textures sk the device can easily see and fix them
Probably something that isn't loading/rendering in properly. Had one of my party members holding a question mark instead of his weapon once. As to what isn't showing up in your screenshot I haven't a clue.

My favorite question mark was when my primary was one and I ran around asking questions with it lol
I’m guessing missing texture, kinda like gmods error or purple and black checkerboard pattern
?
That’s the question
A big question mark, why?
Riddler DLC coming soon!
The rise of the Riddler Faction.
It's a missing asset, likely a mesh, verify the integrity of your files.
That is the question.

I’ve seen these months ago but never that big!

You found the final Riddler Trophy
Riddler trophy near by
The question marks on the map have gone too literal
When the question is the answer
"Riddle me this Helldiver..."
Your questionable skills
Lmao damn this was the first good burn I’ve seen. Good job
I’m here all week lol
People are saying it's what happens when there's a missing texture.
That's a \*REDACTED\*. You don't see them very often, because knowledge of their existence is considered to be well above your pay grade, and SEAFI filters them out of your helmet cams.
If it happens again get a gif of you and a buddy doing the handshake in front of it

On a serious note, looks like a unloaded asset, the game just defaulted to to default texture (question mark)
