Don’t apologize to me lol just be ready for a ban because mods are strict on stupid shit like that and will definitely be seeing it

#

i joined to ask that too, why does demo gets to have gore but not playtest

hallow storm
#

why does my game only consist of being in the pitch black?

soft osprey

so playtest came before demo?

Mcwonder what does the community manager know about half sword

#

He’s only the community manager

#

For half sword

frank scarab
#

also gore and blood 2.0 is not finished

soft osprey
#

Haha no but fr it’s a mix of both

#

Demos gore doesn’t work for playtest, and they were too late for the booth

final vortex
devout hinge
#

I know that the old gore isn't compatible with the new physics, the new gore ISNT done, the devs are getting a public booth so more people can see it, the devs WONT be getting a private booth this year because it costs more money and less people would see the game

soft osprey
#

It’s a mix of all that

those rich folks are nothing but talk

they aint tough

they need protection because theyre scared of getting hurt

if im being honest, if you are able to fight someone who's entirely made of armor and can still kill them, you are tougher than anything

ah, steel meeting steel, thats nothing compared to wood meeting skull

he cant swing no more

this pov makes it look like i stabbed him through the chest but i stabbed his left armpit

it just slided to his chest

devout hinge
devout hinge
#

usually its below 20% cpu usage

but 99% GPU with rtx 2060 6gb

stiff belfry
#

its like $89 sometimes you can get it on sale on newegg for like $50 its a budget GOAT but you should upgrade big guy

devout hinge
#

but idk how much of a "buget" it is when he'll have to change his motherboard and ram to use that cpu

stiff belfry
#

the i1-9 barely means anything the 12100f outperforms the i9-9900k

devout hinge
#

idk

#

if you really wanna upgrade your CPU then buy a ryzen 5 5600x @round cypress

stiff belfry
#

i was talking ultra budget

#

but yeah the 5600x is good too you can snag it with an included cooler most of the time

devout hinge
stiff belfry
#

w a 2600?

devout hinge
stiff belfry
#

right intel and amd

#

mbmb i havent had an AMD cpu in a while

#

a 2600 is crazy though brother you have to upgrade that jawn

#

those AM5 cpu's look sexy with all the cutouts

devout hinge
#

too bad you wont be able to see the cutouts after you buy a ginormous cooler to cool the bastards

What was the ETA for gore have they said

#

Oh nice, end of september?

devout hinge

but i guess sometime in october

#

I don't mind the gore, the unarmed combat and grappling would be awesome in the demo

last wasp

  • it can deal good damage thru armor in the mini battle
final vortex
#

before this match i half gripped the sword and swinged from the left to the right and it immediately went through their neck

#

just like this, i stabbed him in the neck in the beginning of the match and now he's agonizing

sonic dirge
#

meanwhile i’m the one getting stabbed in the neck

#

i suck so bad at this game it’s so unfunny

i've developt my own techniques

what do you do? i’m still learning how it all works so far

formal grotto

I love this game!!!

warped lynx
#

Love the fist fights

formal grotto
#

Is it just going to be arena style game or will there be dungeons?

final vortex
#

when you push them to the ground you can just grab their leg and then pick your short weapon and bash them to death cuz they wont be able to get up

warped lynx
#

When youre down you can grab legs and swap positions sometimes

word, i’ll definitely try that right now and i’ll come back with success or dead cause i suck

Sometimes i will get a 2 punch KO

#

With the gauntlets its fun as hell

sonic dirge
#

how do the fist fights work? what’s the key to winning those?

final vortex
#

sallet leaves you neck insanely unprotected, everytime i go against someone with a sallet i just stab them in the neck, they agonize all the way

#

im either too good or too lucky, he came at me and got the armpit stabbed instantly lol

final vortex
round shale
# weak roost Yeah, honestly don’t.

The only real reason to use alt for a sword strike is probably if you're too far from the opponent and end up trying to do a stabbing move during your swing
Even then it's probably better to just double click

leaden magnet

You do a great job showcasing how complex and fast the techniques can be with a physics based engine

There are a lot of noises our body makes when breathing is labored or compromised, hopefully they add more to increase the immersion

#

Gonna be honest trying to stab is pretty bad anyway and it's only really successful if you're A) Lucky, or B) Lack of armour

#

maybe it's just a skill issue though 🤷

weak roost
#

I don’t think the stab is bad. It’s a timing issue for most people.

storm osprey
#

good way of keeping distance when you need a breather

round shale
#

I think I've worded it wrong tbh-

weak roost
#

Your guard does the same thing.

round shale
#

The stab isnt bad, especially if you're skilled enough to time it perfectly and get a good hit in around the lower chest

#

But most of the time it's quite hard to find a good point to use it in combat

storm osprey
#

youll most likely be using it with weapons that require, one way or another, stabs to work

But both are horrible

chilly moth
#

Atleast you don't get sick ig

#

It looks like it would be one of the best helmets for vision but it's one of the worse

fast bramble
#

Yeah lmao

chilly moth
#

You should make a baller montage using that

fast bramble
#

Lmao maybe

#

Only way to fix it really would be to have the camera slightly ahead of the face, replace the model with one that doesn't have that part in first person, or replace the eyeballs with cameras and create a stereo image to nauseate the hell out of everyone

chilly moth
fast bramble
#

There's definitely no visual cues with that thing on

chilly moth
#

Lol

fast bramble
#

Unless they glitch through it

#

Once he's not in front of you you're basically lost

#

Unless he's heavy breathing

chilly moth

#

Pretty much yeah

#

Or flail and hope something sticks

#

And if you get knocked over hoo boy

#

At least the armet lets you see where to go to get up

fast bramble

is this supposed to happen?

tried it and it's just. way too shaky for me even unhelmeted lol. very limiting in terms of what you can see obviously. but i can see how some can find a more enjoyable challenge in that

Third person can be fun but it feels more exciting to me in first, it's like a bootleg VR

i can not see a thing in first person#

Show pic

livid sedge
#

no like i think its normal but i dont play in first person bc once your on the floor you have no clue whats going on

livid sedge
#

yea

chilly moth
#

So you can see fine when you're up

livid sedge
#

yea its a bit hard but still

Uploaded the wrong clip at first

Screenshot pls just so I know it's normal

livid sedge

Oh yeah that's fine

#

I didn't realize that hat affects your vision

livid sedge
#

anything on your head affects the vision

true zealot
#

if you have a model with a pointed hat on like that then yeah it'll affect you ingame, you can just click through the models until you find one with a smaller hat/folded brim or smt

oh dang

@fast bramble you know what they are right?

i just dont like first person bc when your hit your all over the place so you cant see

Yee

#

I'll grab screenshots

ive just got full control of this guy's arm rn

#

I have done first person in helmets a few times and did manage to get some clips from it

true zealot
#

So I just realised that this guy can not turn around while im holding him, so I'm just letting the shovel dude deal with him rn

chilly moth
#

The only thing I like about first person is that it's a bit easier to tell the distance

fast bramble
#

These hats and helmets don't obstruct your vision at all in first person

fast bramble
#

These two cover a very tiny sliver at the top of your screen

#

This is the only viable first person helmet in the top tier

final vortex
#

protection sucks tho

fast bramble
#

The rest of the hats and helmets cover varying amounts of the screen ranging from mild annoyance to blindfold

chilly moth
chilly moth
#

You know what's funny

final vortex
#

all the sallets have that faulty design of leaving your neck open

chilly moth
#

The Armlet probably has the best all around protection in the game

#

However, the gap between the cuirass and helmet is only protected by mail and it is possible for that be penned for a throat shot.

I would know because I took that once from a longsword thrust.

Ironically a sallet and bevor would have probably stopped that

final vortex
#

that was only an example of a clip, but i land those stabs to the neck nearly all the time

chilly moth
#

Though it only happened once

#

And it's a super small target

final vortex
#

i guess i just over practiced it then

#

cuz it's relatively easy to land

Neat its kinda like a rogue lite

final vortex

#

After the third boss, that is when armor starts spawning more commonly

fast bramble
#

The playtest is the arena

calm rock
#

So I'm assuming the duels and such are reserved for playtest version

fast bramble
#

Yeah

chilly moth
calm rock
#

How would one get into the playtest? The game is right up my alley

fast bramble
#

In the playtest there's two 1v1s (one you spawn in with weapons, one you fight over weapons in the middle of the arena), 1v4s, 3v3s, and 1v1 fist fights

chilly moth
#

There was one other time I got one shotted through the armlet and I'm pretty sure it went through my eye slit

I was playing the itch io version for a while but the wonky combat made me look into it more, having seen more advanced gameplay versus what I was playing

final vortex
chilly moth
fast bramble
#

The playtest is more advanced than the demo, too

chilly moth
fast bramble
#

No gore atm, but it's being totally reworked into something never before seen in gaming

chilly moth
#

Hopefully they adjust it

fast bramble
#

Full fluid sim for the blood

final vortex
#

you could be using a full suit of chain mail, if a knight went with all their might with a impaling attack to your stomach, it would 100% penetrate the chain mail

livid sedge
#

i hate the armour your there for 20 minutes smashing the head trying to get through the armour

fast bramble
#

Not just the gaps

calm rock
chilly moth
final vortex
chilly moth
#

Imo my guess is that sometimes your skin clips the armor.

And sometimes when you get your flesh cut, the weapon might just go straight through the armor directly connected to it (you can see this helmets or hits to the shoulder going through a breastplate).

Combine those two and voila

final vortex
#

yea clipping is a major issue

chilly moth
#

But it's much better than the demo

fast bramble
livid sedge
chilly moth
#

The bevor is somewhat reliable assuming you don't cut around it

chilly moth
#

The demo bevor was shit

livid sedge
#

i love how if an npc is stabbed in the neck they have a full on scene of slowly dying

chilly moth
#

What's the scariest weapon to fight for you guys so far?

Or whatever you die to most often.

livid sedge
#

are they adding like facial expressions bc your stabbing someone surely they'll be in pain

chilly moth

#

For me it's probably that battle axe

livid sedge
#

the ones with the knife just randomly are like the best ever, i get a good stab through their chest and then i just get butchered

chilly moth

I have a way to counter it but it's spooky

I swear they put a spinning speed buff on its wielder, I notice the moment a willie manages to get their goedendag spikes on me they'll start spinning around me like a damn alligator

Blood trail type stuff

#

I remember watching a video of someone throwing a barrel at someone in blood trail

final vortex

gore can be very viceral as much as they want, it just gotta keep realistic, it aint normal to swing a mace to someone's head and it explodes

they started exploding only when gunpowder was discovered

I want Sapo to tell me what the mace to head head gore should look like instead

I am morbidly curious now

tawdry solar
#

Only way to know is probably just looking at some blunt damage experiments video on those silicone dummies

chilly moth
#

Text is good enough

#

Oh right armor damage is a thing in the future

#

I wonder how that will be done

tawdry solar
#

Cant wait to bonk

#

Also i feel like longswords shouldnt do this much level of blunt damage honestly

#

It's so easy to bonk with longswords right now

tawdry solar
chilly moth

#

Honestly as long as the head exploding isn't like it is in the demo where just tapping it the right way with something blunt causes it to pop like a balloon under a lot of pressure I'll be happy with it

use your mouse to position your hands where you want to grab them
