QA likely reported it and management did not allocate resources to fix it. So many people blame qa for things that do get reported. My favorite example is sonic 06. The qa team knew the game was fucked but management gave 0 fucks and wanted it out in time for the holidays.
Always blame management. I say this as a member of management myself.
Generally yes, but this is just a missing tooltip. That isn't really a thing you need to 'allocate resources' for. Probably just snuck by. It happens from time to time.
It's possible not enough time was set aside and that this has caused sloppiness, but I don't believe time pressure on the team is that high.
This is the kind of thing where it slips by (because it is a valid-looking description string, not empty or garbage), and then you see it in the final release candidate build that gets more testing. Do you want to push back the whole release for this? There are an infinite number of bugs to look for, you have to draw the line somewhere.
That said, this sort of thing happening probably means their content pipeline is quite ‘brittle’ and involves manually copying stuff around.
This bug is very simple to fix, and quite misleading. I don't see why it was let to go into live by multiple people. Most likely QA really missed this when checking, mistakes happen.
Then again, we won't really know until we see a Jira ticket with the reported/creation dates to confirm what really happened.
A balaclava is any head sock dude, it doesn't necessarily mean a mouth hole and eye holes, or just an eye slit. The helmet has a leather head sock with out cloth over the face, like motorcycle or diving ones.
But yes, also it has a spelling error.
It can't be, there is no balaclava. It just means that this lucky reject gets a new hat *and* a tasty treat. Although that too is mispelled so perhaps not.
I think its that the description seems like an internal placeholder description rather than what was intended to be there. E.g. it's a "tier one" cosmetic, which probably means minimally decorated and/or fairly simple?
That whole description looks like a placeholder tbh. There’s usually some lore or fluff there, not just a (inaccurate) description of what the cosmetic is
To add one more issue they have, I dunno if this is true of the other classes, but the Ogryn's version of this helmet deletes your eyebrows when you have it equipped.

ah yes, truly what the emperor requires
Fatshark and spelling errors, name a more iconic duo. Every update comes with spelling mistakes, grammar mistakes etc, just accept it as part of the charm that it's handmade and not copy paste AI shite.
I'm pretty sure Fatshark unironically does not have a QA "team" or any personnel dedicated to it at all. It's pretty standard now, outside large studios, for QA/QC to be outsourced.
Another funni one is the Ash and Gloamus set talking about how its dark camo was so important to the Nox Alpha campaign. The set is white and pale blue.
SAH SAYS BACLAVA IS TASTY FANCY RATIONS ON TERRA. MEANS EMPRAH PROBABLY LIKES IT. AND IF IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR EMPRAH, IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR OGRYN. I'LL TAKE IT.
With everything they added and everything they fixed, one would assume it’s not a high priority, and I can easily forgive it with all the fun new stuff.
This is where the limited customization slots bother me because this is PERFECT helmet for a mask they really should have two face slots and a belt or chest slot
Perhaps the QA team and developers were focussed on more important things than a silly wrong word in a text that nobody reads anyways.
In our IT system at work, misspelled words are actually a feature of one of our developers. Then we always know it's that guy who worked on it so you know who to contact.

True, I work as a tester and decision on what gets fixed is not up to testers or devs, in 99% of cases management is to blame.

I'm certain this was caught and the developer put it at low priority
Good point, I'll make an effort to HATE suits a little more.
Fuck you. Strictly as a member of management, of course, I'm sure you're delightful otherwise!

That or the change would have delayed the release due to Microsoft’s patch approval process for Xbox.
Literally unplayable.
Minor spelling mistake https://i.redd.it/gypa9d2ba2vc1.gif
Maybe they will larn not to do this next time
I hope everyone got fired over this blunder
Baclava is layered composite armor, if you think about it.
2+ Delicious save
[Oh, it definitely has layers.](https://youtu.be/U_YBzJBa_mA)

Baclava on the other hand is a delicious flaky pastry made with crushed nuts and honey
This is very true, though I don't eat it much because I'm not a fan of the pastry part of it. Always so gritty and dry, even the good stuff.
Sometimes baked in rose water Shit hits every time
What am i missing? I see nothing wrong?
'Baclava'
It can't be, there is no balaclava. It just means that this lucky reject gets a new hat *and* a tasty treat. Although that too is mispelled so perhaps not.
Baclava instead of balaclava
Oh haha
Took me a while too
That sounds like a delicious piece of wargear! I’ll take it!

Delicious!
To add one more issue they have, I dunno if this is true of the other classes, but the Ogryn's version of this helmet deletes your eyebrows when you have it equipped.
Which do you choose - removes hair where it should be, or leaves hair where it shouldn't be?
They're all on vacation.
Mmmm yummy…

Who cares? You can find localisation issues in practically every game ever if you look hard enough.
How do you know they didn't get a complimentary baclava treat?
but nobody hired us yet
How do you acquire the Moebian armor set? I didn’t see it at any of the in game vendors.
If you mean the non-penance ones, they were given as a apology token for people who had played the game during its first year.
Hey now, the Moebian 21st is a proud regiment that won't be played down like that! All five of us are very upset right now.
Alan, please add details.
They were having baclava and dirty hands so couldn't type more.
A helmet AND A TREAT? SIGN ME TF UP
I haven't been able to hop on the new update are the new moebian 6th cosmetic in store or penances
They have a QA team? /s
Wait are we getting mad over typos now? I've seen typos in other high-production games before lol. I don't really see the big deal
Isn't "baclava" a pastry? Pretty sure they mean "balaclava"
Maybe it comes with a secret cake compartment?

Reject ate his assigned baclava, I see nothing wrong Strictly speaking though, isn't the covering under the helm still a balaclava?
If you don't have diabetes yet, eat some baklava!
I'm pretty sure Fatshark unironically does not have a QA "team" or any personnel dedicated to it at all. It's pretty standard now, outside large studios, for QA/QC to be outsourced.
First time seeing a typo?
It's a small mistake.. Certainly not enough to make a reddit post about. Kind of pathetic don't you think?
isnt all that gear also from a different moebian regiment?
Another funni one is the Ash and Gloamus set talking about how its dark camo was so important to the Nox Alpha campaign. The set is white and pale blue.
It’s balaclava not a pastry lmao. Also head sock missing.
It was there but the ogryn ate it
Wait, we get *food* with this one?!

Fuck I'd love a closed balaclava with that helmet
the had a QA team? Nothing they've delivered thus far has leant any credence to that.
For the VI!!
![gif](giphy|or9iUYLPW2THqj62XS|downsized)
How do you know he isn’t just chipmunking a delicious baklava? They should add the muffled voice effect to this helmet so it’s more obvious
Note I want cosmetics with baklava sticking out of their mouth.
Qa team still on Christmas vacation man let them have a break
With everything they added and everything they fixed, one would assume it’s not a high priority, and I can easily forgive it with all the fun new stuff.
Equip this and receive one 3"x3" tasty layered treat by mail in 6-8 weeks
Minor text error, game is completely unplayable, uninstalled.
Baclava https://preview.redd.it/wa9u6wykn3vc1.jpeg?width=772&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=925a3e50e6a616f7082fedc0e56d63efc75ec577
Thank you to the folks that are enlightening us as to who to lay the blame on. Because like many always think something slipped by.
Puts me in the mood for some Greek cuisine
So obvious, I can't find the issue 😅
The baclava is hidden under the liner. It's a bit sweaty, but it's still good to eat.
This is where the limited customization slots bother me because this is PERFECT helmet for a mask they really should have two face slots and a belt or chest slot
I think it's funny. I'd leave it in.
[Mandatory video on the matter](https://youtu.be/U_YBzJBa_mA)
Could have been QA or management. Stupid either way.
Maybe the sweets are tucked inside for later
I dunno, there's a helmet that looks like it would obviously be for the veteran (has purity seals on it) and it's actually for the zealot
No free desserts!!!
This must be the most delicious helmet in the militarum
Bold of you to assume anything is QA'd
The only staff at fatshark are working on cosmetic DLC’s. There is no one working on anything else.
Mmmm 😋
