you got saved

If you can't access your email, the game will be automatically added to your steam library under "Half Sword Playtest" when you get the confirmation email. You don't have to click anything in the email.

It's a separate iteration of the game, so you'll have the demo, and the playtest

Does anyone know what the #110 wishlist goal is in the newest WIP? That actually seems obtainable rather than the #1 goal for gore, so I assume it's for getting more info on the simulated blood that was mentioned?

worn heron
# grave kraken how does fatigue/stamina work?

Basically you just gotta feel it, the harder you hear yourself breathe, the closer you are to running out of stamina, especially as your screen darkens. Youll fall to your knees, out of breath.

You'll use it up especially fast if you sprint.

Alright, For the playtest, Go to steam to request access, wait for a confirmation email from the devs. From there you'll have the playtest available to install directly in your steam library, just please be patient as there have been 160,000 people accepted so far, so things may take a little bit, depending on who's online, it can take 1-12 hours typically.

Well, not necessarily, that's sorta a misconception that Hollywood tends to misrepresent a lot. Maces were most commonly used on horseback to inflict heavy concussions to armoured people, but in a general standoff, they weren't as effective as media makes them out to be. The flanged mace, however, is the one specifically made to drive more of an impact into armour, because of the flanges on it. They divert the force to a single point, which against armour, inflicts more concussive force, but one thing the game needs to get correct is bone breakage rn. Maces shouldn't be breaking bones through armour, that just— doesn't happen

after all, they still have their whole arena mode that they wanna implement to the main game. They were developing at least 5 maps for it.

-# death pit included!

i bet theyll make the loadouts part of a gamemode where you can just do quick brawls then other gaemodes where you progress

At least when I did HEMA, the only maces we were allowed were short, one handed maces, and we were allowed arm strikes, pushing, and body hits.

At the full armor tier, if you decide to use a character with an arming sword/short mace/other stuff you are given and shield, is it better to just drop the shield and two hand the weapon?

If you fall down at the zero armor tier, what are your chances of getting back up if your enemy isn't on the ground with you?

glass sage
#

oh wait zero armor mb

ruby otter
#

your character just takes too long to stand up 99% of the time

#

Might as well ff the moment you fall over

chilly moth
#

What tier do your chances of survival start to exceed 50%

#

Like the lowest tier

ruby otter
#

Imo no point in trying to fight, they'll just keep smashing your ass until you die or give up

glass sage
#

IF they dont target your head

glass sage
#

never back down never what?

ruby otter
#

never give up

glass sage
#

hell yeah

chilly moth
# glass sage top tier

I guess the prevalence of the partial breastplates on the middle to top tiers holds it back

ruby otter

#

At the full armor tier, what are the most common points you die from (or if that isn't often, get injuries)

Imo, I feel like it's the armpit region

#

By injuries

#

Let's ommit the blunt stuff

ruby otter
#

blunt stuff

chilly moth
#

Because that is obvious

glass sage
ruby otter
#

unless the sword touches any unarmoured part of he body

#

or axe idk

#

whatever weapon you use

stray pendant
#

Probably armpit region too

chilly moth
#

I died once to a sword slash to the side of my torso

#

It was too low to be an armpit hit

ruby otter
chilly moth
#

The armor collisions can kinda impressive sometimes

#

I prefer full pauldrons for that

put that bih in half grip mode and smack someones head around

nvm true

#

I'll been using the same character for multiple days now because I like the loadout.

chilly moth
#

Bussy mode

#

I mean I did technically die with him today

#

Because a longsword thrust managed to pierce the maile on my neck

#

But I didn't die fast enough

#

I think I prefer long swords over great swords atm

#

They feel less flimsy

#

And also because my kit comes with one

#

I should try throwing it more in the brave stand more

#

They clump up and some aren't armored so there is a chance I might actually hit and hurt someone

ruby otter
#

fist fight supremacy

chilly moth
#

Does anyone actually like using the rondel daggers at full armor tier?

Even worse than fists.

stray pendant
#

Uh

chilly moth
#

If anyone has been able to get consistent success with just those, let me know

stray pendant

Imma try

bro was hitting me in the back of he head while I was trying to fight 2 other dudes

stray pendant
#

Ye he deserved it

#

Brave stand gotta be the coolest mode for sure

ruby otter
#

kinda glad the enemies aren't the same tier as you

stray pendant
#

Yeah

#

It's just cool you can throw them around with ur polearm

chilly moth
#

The naked tier needs a brave stand but with armored enemies. Maybe call it, confidence or something

#

Suicide?

stray pendant
#

xd

ruby otter
#

yeah probably suicide

chilly moth
#

It let's you make sure the G key works

#

Would having a random top tier weapon spawn on the ground in front of you make it less suicidey

how to play the real game and not just demo?

By knocking them down?

Sometimes I just hit in the right area

Oh

It takes long tho

#

So knocking them down then getting the dagger all lined up is easier 😅

chilly moth
stray pendant
#

Im brave stand rn, lemme get that dagger

#

Its easy with dagger :d

chilly moth
#

Why can't we have brave stand but with full armor on the armor tier

stray pendant
#

Idk

#

I think it's cooler when they're lower tier

oblique flint

Bro 400 uah is nothing wth

If it's a hardware issue, I don't think there is anything you can do without buying the hardware.

Not sure if that CS 2 mention would work either, whatever it is

oblique flint
#

How

#

You can't even live on 200 uah

#

How do you buy anything

chilly moth
#

UAH?

#

Oh Ukrainian hryvnia

#

According to Google atleast

stray pendant
#

Yeah

#

200 uah - 5$?

#

Yeah uh

chilly moth
#

How much does a candy bar usually cost in UAH

stray pendant
#

No idea

Where is bro living

#

5-10 uah for a candy bar bro do you still live in 2003???

chilly moth
#

Are you both from Ukraine

oblique flint
#

Ye

#

I lived in Ukraine and finished highschool there

chilly moth
#

How much is a candy bar

oblique flint
#

Visited recently in summer

chilly moth
#

Whatever you last remembered

oblique flint
#

12-15 is the smallest price but mostly otherwise like 20-26

#

These are priced from Kiev last I visited in June

chilly moth
#

Is franky still fine with people pinging him

#

If he is, I guess you can just do that

lol

hoary orchid
#

how i feel after i win a brave stand (i was fighting peasents with nothing but knives):

chilly moth
#

But I guess you can't miss at that distance

hoary orchid
#

demo wasnt really fist fighting but playtest actually had it but it wasnt the best it waws just whoever held out the longest won

idle crane
#

The rate you can punch needs slowing down imo

chilly moth
#

Of all the differences, fistfights between the demo and playtest are probably among the biggest.

idle crane
#

Grappling is better in demo

hoary orchid
#

yeah exactly

#

you would fully extend your arm (in fist) and just swing them around

#

wasnt really punching

chilly moth
#

I mean, that's because the demo came with a roguelike mode, no shit

#

The playtest only has arena

hoary orchid
#

i like the playtesst gamemode more than the demo

chilly moth
#

Just variants of the arena mode unless you are referring to the demo

hoary orchid
#

its just annoying because i usually use the gore to gauge the damage which you cant rn

chilly moth
#

The playtest doesn't have proper bosses

fleet stump
#

Playtest doesnt have bosses, doesnt have looting, doesnt have gore, very suprised people play it at all tbh : D

chilly moth
#

What

gilded frigate
#

We need gore

fleet stump
#

Spoilance yeah

#

it's fun

#

But im here for the violence

chilly moth
#

Do you have any video evidence of this

#

Wait

bright patrol
chilly moth
#

...and did you write it?

#

What was that

covert onyx
#

so, never again and im holstering a wepon that doesent have a sheathe

hoary orchid
covert onyx
#

the severe glitchyness in physics that cause that when you have armor on is so so buggy

#

the sheath works on swords
das it

idle crane
mild viper
#

how many types of games there are Half Sword Demo,Half Sword Playtest there is another

fleet stump

Atm armors feel indestructibles, but that's not gonna last Evil_grin

covert onyx

dude i look like i got punched in a anime thats how bad the glitchyness did me

fleet stump
#

I finance the game, Im glad I got insider info lol

idle crane
fleet stump
#

Yeah but im sure you realize every materials have a resistance

mild viper
#

We can play it

#

ohh i see

chilly moth
hoary orchid
#

feels more polished in the pt but it doesnt mean its better

fleet stump
#

If you keep hitting a chestplate with a heavy hammer... things got to happen

idle crane
fleet stump
#

Right now all loot is free and all

#

But armors were quite expensive back then, reserved for knights, foot soldiers had little armor

#

If you pop out in full armor, expect to have sweaty palms because thats quite an investment.

idle crane
#

They would still have gambesons and maybe chainmail if they were slightly better off

limpid sable
#

@fleet stump Your profile picture is a little sinister xd

fleet stump
#

Also you guys realized that with full armor, your movements amplitude is restrained.

idle crane
chilly moth
#

Well for one, armor is much more reliable now as far as hit detection goes

hoary orchid
#

2 handed weapons feel great to play but 1 handed weapons are more boring and 1 note

fleet stump
chilly moth
#

But I still feel like the auto block feature on some of the weapons is a bit annoying

covert onyx
#

i likw how int he demo you can clean your clothes by swapping from another peice of clothing and then swapping back

#

even repairs them too if its damaged

idle crane
#

No blood or cloth damage in playtest at the moment

chilly moth
#

There was helmet popping

#

But I haven't seen that since the patch

#

I am aware of the head popping in the demo

fleet stump
idle crane
#

Helmet popping is still a thing it's just way harder since they added straps

limpid sable
#

Well, very good, very fluid and I feel like I control the sword, not like in other games where they restrict you a lot, it's like I control myself, hahaha

idle crane

like how many blood come from the npc?

limpid sable

I don't know English, but can you share your screen with me so I can see and gain more skills??

#

ok

Not sure if it’s just me but when I turn blood all the way up I still don’t see any. I’m not a psychopath btw, I just like realism

idle crane
# distant bramble what are these for guys

If this is demo. Blood changes how much blood comes out. Lock on strength changes how strong the lock on is. Damage to player and NPC is obvious. Body density changes how easy you can cut throught limbs. And bone snapping changes how easy you can break bones blunt weapons are best for this

limpid sable

It's going a little bad
