Halo Infinite launched in December as the latest installment in the iconic saga of FPS games initially developed by Bungie (now run by 343 Industries).

While the game has been available to everyone since December, some players have been able to access the beta since November. This way, they could detect issues to correct before the final release.

Having said the above, there is a visual issue that is reportedly present since the beta version. The glitch affects how a specific section of Spartan Jorge’s outfit (Jorge-052, also known as George) is shown.

According to reports from Halo Infinite players, shoulder pad texture on Spartan Jorge outfit is missing or lacks details. This has been the case since the availability of the game’s beta (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10).

Halo Infinite Jorge shoulder pad missing texture

The missing texture issue on the Jorge shoulder pad makes that outfit area contrast notably, due to how detailed the rest of the character model is (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8).

Someone mentioned something to me about since the shoulder is no longer in the game as an individual armor piece not part of an armor kit it’s possible that the game is trying to find that texture file but can’t since it’s not in the game’s files. Could possibly be the cause?

Stop doing online fist bumps and fix the constant crashes and add the missing texture to jorges shoulder pad that’s been missing since release , instead of adding off center visor effects.

Fortunately, the issue described above only affects the visual section. The gameplay works normally, but there are many players who are bothered by the difference between the area without detail and the rest of the outfit.

No official acknowledgment yet, players demand for a fix

At the moment, no official acknowledgment from 343 Industries regarding the graphical glitch has surfaced. It is worth noting that despite the many reports, the company hasn’t yet expressed any interest to address the glitch.

While the glitch does not affect gameplay, the fact that it has been present practically since the game’s launch and there is still no hope of a fix makes many players feel annoyed.
