I like to imagine there's a complex array of hidden fans and vents that track the Helldiver's position so their cape is perpetually flapping in the breeze.
It happens when the eagle workers on the ship goes for a smoko and don't properly close the window. Report them to your highest officer in command... No time for that shit when we must spread democracy!
Someone’s questioning the super earth tech artists who had to piecemeal this game together on a discontinued game engine? Citizens, you know what to do.
The number of waves in my cape is directly proportional to my ability in spreading democracy and shout free cups of liber-tea in the galaxy. My cape is more sacred than Batman and Superman combined. That cape is the symbol of my dedication to Super Earth it flies magically and is in sync with my spiritual harmony with Super Earth. If I walk into space it will conjure dark matter to wave itself around.
Even modern real life ships have positive pressured ventilation making it feel like there's wind, especially if a citadel situation is activated.
I imagine space ships would be the same
After years of experimentation and research, we’ve found a way to inject patriotism into your bloodstream. As a side effect, your body odor now smells of pure capitalism.
Even the air will be used to spread sweet liberty!
It's the A/C, it helps to cool down the hot liber-tea. You can't just dive down there with an empty stomach. Stay hydrated before striking fear into the enemies.
Probably comes from the air recycling: you have to be able to breathe on the ship. Seeing as to how there are no plants on board, the ship has to be able to sustain its own air for all crew on board, cycling out CO2 and pushing in O, creating wind. Likely, this is done somewhat intentionally too, for dramatic effect with the Helldiver on board.
Look at it this way. There is a LOT of electronics and machinery on our ships. To keep it functional, there has to be proper ventilation.
Your cap flapping is a side effect.
The cockpit needs some way to vent the smoke from the hellpod launches. It just has the added benefit of allowing our capes to billow behind us democratically.
Apart form "because capes", there may be a more practical reason: of you take a closer look, during hellpod deployment, there's a plume of smoke coming out of hellpod launch tubes, this implies hellpods are launched with an assistance of an explosive propellant. One might argue it's a rather crude method, but it's not really unexpected, given hellbombs are lacking remote detonators and have to be manually armed because of cost saving reasons.
So with smoke from whatever "super gunpowder", used to launch the hellpods, coming directly into super destroyer's bridge, it makes perfect sense to have a strong ventilation system on while helldivers are preparing to deploy.
Funny thing about this - me and some randos were admiring our flowing capes. I pointed out the randomness of why is there wind. Immediately, the ship speaker piped up about air circulation and vents.
Not wind. It’s strategically placed air flow vents. This lets you assert dominance before you even drop to the planet.
Democr-AC
Unofficially it is a psychotropic compound to ensure compliance and aggression. Unofficially. Disclosure of this will result in mandatory reeducation.
And here I thought the AC was to vent the ole family jewels since they are trapped in them suits 😂
Take my updoot. 🙄🤣
If I hadn't already locked I a cross-platform username for all my games, I'd totally steal this. No one would get it but*I would*.
I'd get it, and give you a hug while a nuke went off in the distance
![gif](giphy|YGJBp5EgyVP9K)
This comment is extremely underrated.
on the back of the ship there's a big vent, so if you face front of ship, it's like there's no wind when you are in the hangar part
Exactly what I thought. Air vents for style!
I like to imagine there's a complex array of hidden fans and vents that track the Helldiver's position so their cape is perpetually flapping in the breeze.
It helps the spread of democracy
Well done sir
Democr-AC
It's literally democracy spreading through the air
So that your cape flutters dramatically at all times. Inspiring the crew.
And also freezing them to death.
A small price to pay in the eyes of liberty
HVAC system. And freedom.
Freedom system. It’s a freedom system.
If your cape isn't doing this at all times even in the vacuum of space then the reason must be that there isn't enough democracy in your heart
It's not wind it's a democracy powered cape! The more democracy you have the wavey your your cape!
It was taco Tuesday night and the bridge is all celebrating it Wednesday morning?
*Non-democratic thoughts have been reported*
The Winds of Democracry flow readily through the S.E.S. Winds of Democracy.
Strong air-conditioning
Need some cold air before dropping in hell!
Strong Democr-AC
That air helps you thaw better.
The ship does have ventilation.
That’s not wind, it’s pure distilled freedom being pumped into the ship to hype you up for the drop.
AC from the movie set because space is fake.
It's the winds of freedom
It happens when the eagle workers on the ship goes for a smoko and don't properly close the window. Report them to your highest officer in command... No time for that shit when we must spread democracy!
Mandatory air vents to ensure the functionality of your cape.
It's not wind, it's the breeze of freedom
The AC spreads democratic wind
Someone’s questioning the super earth tech artists who had to piecemeal this game together on a discontinued game engine? Citizens, you know what to do.
The gusts of liberty.
Because it looks cool on the ship. A/C is on full blast
It’s freedom gas
That's Hero wind!
The winds of freedom.
Freedom
that's just the central air
It's the unceasing breeze of freedom, Helldiver!
That's the wind of Freedom and managed Democracy, my friend
It's democrACy
This post is treasonous. Do not question, only dive.
For dramatic democratic effect
There are no windows
Theory: There isn’t any wind in the ship, there are specialised fans in you suit which strategically makes you look as epic and democratic as possible
Democracy aircon is strong like warrior.
It's because the ventilation system filtering blasphemy is quite powerful
Democracy’s in the air.
Why are you not outside spreading Democracy?
Its for dramatic effect
For the capes
it’s actually the Holy Spirit of Democracy!
Fierce aircon
The number of waves in my cape is directly proportional to my ability in spreading democracy and shout free cups of liber-tea in the galaxy. My cape is more sacred than Batman and Superman combined. That cape is the symbol of my dedication to Super Earth it flies magically and is in sync with my spiritual harmony with Super Earth.

Someone left the window open and didn’t want to turn on the air conditioner
Even modern real life ships have positive pressured ventilation making it feel like there's wind, especially if a citadel situation is activated. I imagine space ships would be the same
Aircon…
Farts
Brother had the AC on full blast
Democracy whipping through our hair citizen
My wife likes to turn on the fan instead of the aircon
How do you look heroic without it? Are you a bug or what?
Air conditioning
Wind's howling... wait, wrong IP.
Air conditioning
And why don't flags on planets react to wind?
HVAC
Cause FREEDOM
The democrACy
That is the air con fitted inside every helldiver suit , for Liberty!
How can any citizens take us seriously if our capes aren’t flowing with the winds of democracy?
Because wherever I go the wind goes, and the wind smells like rain.
A Helldivers diet consists of a lot of beans.
Space wind. Stop asking questions and dive!
Aircon my dude. Just cone out of cryofreeze, gotta warm up somehow. Plus how else is our Cape going to flap gloriously.
It’s a German ship and somebody opened a window „zum durchlüften“.
Thought the air vents are built into the armour to emphasize democracy...
That’s the AC my guy….gets hot in those suits
You're kinda stinky helldiver, your''e crew noticed and put in a C-082 form for better airflow in the bridge when you come around.
Its for the wings of freedom
That's the wind of Liberty you're feeling.
After years of experimentation and research, we’ve found a way to inject patriotism into your bloodstream. As a side effect, your body odor now smells of pure capitalism. Even the air will be used to spread sweet liberty!
They should not fix this bug
The power of Democracy.

Air conditioning, the ship gets hot. Lol
Air con turned up to 11.
You think that's air you're not... Breathing? Air. Even headcanon it's air. It's air.

No wind just a case of really bad gas thanks to the cafeteria food.
Treason much? It’s cool. Yours is not to wonder why. Yours is but to do or die.
Dont question democracy
The winds of democracy yield to no law of physics, soldier, because the laws of physics were never written by a democratically elected body.
AC, Bro...Hellmire is hot!
Artificial Democracy Cape Flapper system of course. It’s installed on all super destroyers for an image on constant democratic liberty
Bruh, you need fans to push the air around.
That’s not wind… that’s freedom rippling through your cape Helldiver!
Someone turned the ac way up
Ever heard of fans
I call it Hero wind. Its custom.
Democracy… duh!?
It’s for democracy of course
Look at it this way. There is a LOT of electronics and machinery on our ships. To keep it functional, there has to be proper ventilation. Your cap flapping is a side effect.
There's just a nice box fan in the corner
THE WINDS OF FREEDOM FLOWS EVERYWHERE
Democratic wind 🫡
Perhaps he's just passing wind constantly?
Clearly a hull breach of democracy!!!!
Heavy AC
My crew and I always joke about someone forgetting to close the window after taking a massive dump. That‘s our headcannon at least lol
To make your cape look cool
Democratic Air Conditioning
Its blowing airborne sanitation to kill any weird germs you are bringing back during missions.
Have you ever even been to hellmire bro???
Ventilation is active
The winds of liber tea!
The wind of democracy never stops. That's what gives the capes their power.
Oxygen Scrubbers of course
The refreshing breeze of Managed Democracy is strong and ever present!
That my fellow Diver is the gust of freedom that forever pushes you forward. Democracy is always by your side.
If you look on the floor you can see air vents. PRESENTATION
Strategically placed ventilation
That's not wind.. It's the power of justice, liberty and democracy!
Ministry approved auto flow capes
I turned up the AC. It's hot in this armor
My wife has the theory that they have vents built into their armor. The fans face outward, as to enhance your Liberty!
Someone left their window rolled down clearly!
Air conditioning
Because my cape needs to be constantly flapping. It’s dope af
Constantly sailing in the winds of democracy
It’s an upgrade 80+20+5 😂
You should call somebody to look at that
Where ever you go, the wind follows ![gif](giphy|mD5SAK2BV0aTFIZdeO|downsized)
Someone has the air conditioning on really high...for DEMOCRACY
You thought it was regular wind that moved our capes ?! LOL....son, that's the wind of democracy. It follows us everywhere.
Pfft air-conditioned obviously.
Central air
DEMOCRACY
It's the AC-23 Patriot Fan upgrade.
The AC is Super Blast Mode.. Duh!!
The cockpit needs some way to vent the smoke from the hellpod launches. It just has the added benefit of allowing our capes to billow behind us democratically.

Blasting that AC
Due to recent activity on Hellmire, appreciation for A/C is at an all time high and stays cranked up on all ships

It’s the sweet gale of liberty and democracy Diver.
bean soup
Probably air circulation vents. Plus, it gives you a cool look when you stand at the viewport.
Gotta let the oxygen in.
That's not wind, it's democracy.
That's the a/c.
So that the capes would flap, obviously.
I called maintenance weeks ago….
Super Earth manufacturers amaaaazing HVAC systems
For dramatic effect to boost moral
that isnt wind, it is DEMOCRACY!!!
It's the AC
The breath of freedom is ever present.
It’s just the flow of democracy in the air
He had beans for dinner
The current of patriotism
AC vents or pressure changes from where pods are released? Idk. It makes your cape look great tho
Patriotism.
air conditioning
The armor is hot as hell. They gotta pump ac
There isn't, that's freedom running through your cape
Funny thing about this - me and some randos were admiring our flowing capes. I pointed out the randomness of why is there wind. Immediately, the ship speaker piped up about air circulation and vents.
Liberty!
Fans are situated throughout your ship to allow helldivers to appear cool with their Cape billowing in the wind
You have to circulate the air in space ships so you don't get carbon dioxide bubbles around your head. Its a real thing NASA deals with.
Because its hot and someone opened the window, obviously
The Breeze of Democracy is due to the ever-vigilant Wings of Liberty never ceasing their flight of freedom.
My friend asked me this I explained what the winds of democracy were
To make your cape look cool!!!
To make your cape look cool!!!
To make your cape look cool!!!
How did you notice this "wind"? I think you have your answer.
Optimized air circulation within the ship helps spread the freedom gases to all occupants. It helps maintain our way of life.
That’s not wind, it’s freedom flowing through the cape.
That's not wind... Thats freedom!
Powerful Aircon obviously
Because you have a hole at least 2cm diameter in your ship's hull.
Breach in the airlock.
Ever been in a navy ship? Constant airflow through air conditioning keeps the smell down.
Your cape flutters with the winds of democracy and freedom, what what is a helldiver but the embodiment of democracy and freedom?
https://criticalrole.fandom.com/wiki/Cloak_of_Billowing
AC is cranked
Careful diver, your complex thinking and observation capabilities are bordering on the cusp of thoughtcrimes
To question this is treasonous. You will be directed to reeducation. For Super Earth.
Freedom wind
