there are, maybe im misremembering but you can tell a difference. Armor goes "ching" and hitting flesh is more like "slurch" lmao those are my best sound effects
i actually cut a guys neck in full armor. he stood there holding his neck until he fell over. it really made me wish there was blood cause that wouldve been dope
soon though
Can relate with this lmao sometimes it feels like their heads would be flying if gore was here already
how do i go first person
press V
Hello good morning everyone! I wanted to ask what the game will be based on when it is ready, will it be Chivalry Game style or will it follow the more closed fighting style like now? I love both ways and I'm just curious, thank you 🙂 and great job!
man im still happy about my background its pretty neat
man since its september the gore will come soon..,,
physics fighting are nothing like chivalry
When the full drop
no one knows
Half Sword Devs! Give me the ability to grapple my enemies, and my life, is yours.
Did anyone say they look like that?
I was referring to the type of missions
Please, nobody has said to change any type of physics, the ones that exist are perfect, I mean in the objective of the game as a player, which will have to be done.
bro i have no idea what you mean by chivalry game style
if you read the message correctly he asked if the game would be bigger scale battles like castle sieges in chivalry or would it stay the same as how it is right now with the more smaller sized battles
في عرب
Yo, does anyone know any way to still win if arms go all flobby?
Thank you Moji,
I'm just trying to get a topic of conversation because I'm interested in the game, I imagine that if you are here it would be for the same reason that I am, it's not to make an argument and be defensive.
"will it be chivalry game style or will it follow the more closed fighting style" how the fuck am i supposed to understand hes talking about the scale of battles
we have no idea what the future game will be like
My friend, I'm sorry if you didn't understand it well or if I didn't express myself as I should have, but before you said anything I made it clear that I wasn't referring to physics.
fair enough lol you could ask in #1278076642631352330
I had not seen that channel, I've been here for a week, sorry, anyway, the question was not expressly for you, do not feel alluded if you say you have no idea, the message was for people who did have idea, thank you <33
I guess pushing the enemy until he falls down, but it's pretty hard jajajajaj
i guess i should've said messages and not message singular cause to me atleast it was clear through all of his other messages that he wasn't really asking about the combat itself
Every times it happens, mothy pythons “what are you going to do, bleed on me?” Comes to mind. A kick button would be rad
If you didn't understand it, it's partly my fault too, it's OK, let's leave it at that.
Or a button for a headbutt 😂😂
yeah imagine if you could use your opponents head as a football
Anyway, the other day I learned the lunge with the sword, I think it's great that they've put it up.
I'm looking forward to it
jajajajaj
kicking will be added sometime
I wish I could test this game
Anyone make it over the wall? I keep trying, but I keep crashing because you can't stear the pitchfork after mounting it.
i once did because of some physics gltich that launched me over it
I think the pitchfork is an easter egg not a physics glitch, bcs you can fly it just like a broomstick if you put it between your legs in Harry Potter position
no thats a glitch lol
My weapons have flew over it a few times lol but I haven't made it over yet
bros arm looking like a scarecrow
i did not know you can manage to do that
his arm just got straigthened like that
I love killing French "people"
each window has a 3d room. cool but it would be nice to have an option to turn that off in the settings, for lower end pc's or laptops. (btw sory for it n the corner, my laptop has to run the game at a low res)
CaseOh played half sword
willie in a box
I've seen some people that had weird loadouts in the playtest, like greatsword and brave stand with no armour or a foot soldier fighting a knight in 1v1 with no group combat mode. How does one do that?
when i die, why is there no option to restart, only to go back to the main menu?
its intended to be like that
you can restart only if you get knocked out or surrender
the game's way of punishing you for being too bold
How to get acces to the testing version
Request access to the play test on the store page
go to the steam page and request the playtest then just wait
everyone gets accepted
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2397300/Half_Sword/
Half Sword is an immersive, physics-based medieval combat simulator that offers players a unique experience of becoming a commoner-turned-knight, fighting brutal tournaments in 15th-century Europe. With innovative gameplay mechanics, you can wield your weapon with precision using your mouse, feeling the intensity of each clash as you ascend the ...
Coming soon
ah alr and around how long is the waiting time
from a few minutes if youre lucky to 24 hours at the most
but its still day for the devs so youll get it in the next few hours i guess
where blood
This is how you should be playing (the view not the kill)
long time no see
Straight banger
are you able to predict the release of the new OST?
hahahh not yet; cookin takes time 🙂
alright! I'll stay tuned!
I’m ready for battle
Beautiful!!!
double scythe exploit
anyword on when update is gonna be
fr only a day?
i expected like most a week
how do u know if u get it?
August 12th 2036
they send gmail saying you got in
what did i do to him???
how dont use gmail
Soontm [somewhere in September]
It will be on your library automatically
Whenever they accept you
ohh alr
yall know the exploit where you can spam X
and just deal massive damage right
mainly works on two handed weapons
anyone know how long it takes to give you access to the playtest?
a few minutes to a few days
does anyone else have clips of spinning moves like this
flashy kills
stuff like that
validated 4000 of you for the playtest - enjoy!
The game will have multiplayer?
is it rare to get access to the playtest?
no?
just email and wait they are manually accepting people
Do you know if the game will have multiplayer?
no clue
uhhh i cant seem to find where to request access
why is the fist fighting so much harder than weapon fighting
steam store page
ahhh ty ty
i won the weekly knife fight
Haha i knew you would do that
hit em like baseball
wowie we traded deaths
Accidentally killed my teammates lol
Sword
of course
Nah polearms
I think the game could do with some more wooden weapons
like a proper wooden baton or a quarterstaff
yeah
What if you could save willie after a duel and go to the tavern with him
though the long wooden one is great
Maybe a shillelagh
A quarter staff could be seriously dangerous in unarmored or light armor tiers
idk if that's accurate, if it is sure
I meant like the english quarterstaff
has anyone here ever made a successful knife throw?
I mean it's a piece of wood so I'm guessing it's accurate lol
It's not accurate sure, it's mainly used in Ireland but it's cool
I hit buckler throws often and occasionally stick people with an axe throw , only ever grazed with knives though
yes but then people would ask for native american weapons, or asian weapons as well
I feel like knives lack the weight to stick
They can but you have to get it JUST right
I did it once where I threw a knife with the 3rd class and cut the guys neck in the playtest
Nope I found the picture on google
It is possible but jts hard as fuck
That’s what makes it hard though, they just bounce off because the low momentum
Been looking into getting one though
I feel like I can semi consistently hit Willie when I throw it, but damn it takes a lot to make the blade do any damage
However if you even look at Willie with a scythe he falls in half
Indeed
just by turning around
Throw falchions instead of daggers , more weight and better shape
goofy aa scythe player clears the game by looking for coins on the ground
Unironically made it to the falchion boss just by turning with the scythe in horizontal grip
You look to check what’s behind you and you dismembered 5 men
yes
Seriously I don’t think there is a more violent weapon in the demo
Like comically violent
me neither
You can cut a dude in half, lop off his arm, head and foot in one horizontal swipe
not just the arm
Or when the scythe gets stuck in them and then they just explode
arm is also cut at the wrist, elbow AND shoulder
You just turn Willie into fuckin deli meat
Infinite prosciutto glitch 2024
I tabbed back into the game having forgotten to pause
and Willie was giving my character a paddling while he was rethinking his life choices
hate this thing
like it's good to kill early enemies, the hard part is taking it out afterwards
give up
just use it once
nah, I had 2 more of these, grabbed a second one to dig into the guy
managed to get it back
there, now I can get an actual weapon
i have a very bad laptop that can barely run the Half Sword Demo
i think i'll just have to wait until i get a better one
help, I am fighting for my life, picked up a cused sword
yes
the thing is spazzing out and won't let go of me
best weapon in the game
btw how many bosses are in the demo?
only managed to beat the first one
I have fought in 2 boss fights, and entered a third area
so I would say at least three
is the second boss a single enemy
or are they 2?
because when you kill the first boss 2 enemies spawn
sup everyone
6
greetings
wow
you are the chosen one
yeah it's normal. you're just a prisoner like the rest of us
oh my
oh thats 2 very different answers
i meant literally
Everybody gets access. But you’re still special
immediately im impressed by the lack off insanely sus art in the art section that so many servers has
don't trust this guy here
second boss is 3 people yeah
Would you care to take a gander at #1270577738826256536
oh no....
do they all have scythes
One sword and two..axes? I think
did anyone here manage to beat all 6 bosses?
don't worry, there are better threads here. such as the guilds
yeah one handed sword dude, then two guys with 2 handed axes coming in from behind
is the playtest online?
nope
Yeah last boss is naked Willie with a boatload of hp
this game will eventually be online right?
It was originally supposed to be a copy of your Willies gear with a bunch of hp but it kept breaking things so they took it out and left naked Willie
it's not something they're planning to add right now. might come as a thought in later developement
Local split screen possibly but not online
interesting
im gonna try to do a no hit run all 6 bosses
how u do bosses?
like is it in the playtest?
its in the demo
this game is gay
lol
NOOO
this game is STRAIGHT up the coolest.
these are sick. are you making them right now?
nope
someone posted that one some days ago and i just stole it
would be cool if they added gore to the playtest 😍
oh
wont happen
after the big show
damn how did you respond in less than a second
NOW im making them myself
not less than a second
why did you have to share this
because it's awesome dude
cope gatekeeper
gatekeep flaming text
very nice
i can never seem to pull off an overhead with the longsword
as someone whos tried a million times on longsword, the hammer feels easy to do it with. I don't think i've gotten one solid overhead with the longsword tho. I thought it just wasn't a direction you could swing from
gotta keep an eye on the arm alignment or it will throw your aim off
Is playtest on right now?
always on, just request it on steam and wait for a little bit
Ah okay, I did. Thanks, Fencer.
im glad people are unable to gatekeep in this server
release date?
none for now, devs are gonna take a lot of time to push it out on EA and work up on it till it fully finishes, the devs are committed to bring a quality product.
for now enjoy the playtest/demo [if you don't have access to the play test then you can simply request it on steam and wait a small bit before you get it.]
also provide feedback if you have any opinions that you feel like you need to express by going to #1047240101152960525 & #1262488181035630634
fun fact, you can hold g and then hit esc and it will surrender while paused, good for if you get critically wounded and are about to die and dont wanna go back to menu
but can you play multiplayer?
no multiplayer as of now, they're working on implementing local splitscreen
tbh bro dont even bother
every day its the same question
"wheres the blood" "wheres the multiplayer"
bro im new calm down
well what can you do, its best to give them a good answer other than just keep them clueless
for all those who say a sword can't cut through plate armor
don't worry, hes just a bit tired of these questions.
azz
It tells you to read the faq when you join and theres a big screen when you start up the game that makes you click "i agree and continue" that tells you why theres no blood
and theres 8 questions in the faq, its not like some book
Proof that people care more about blood more than gore
The blood looks great so far
well when i chop someone in the neck and only air comes out i wonder if im fighting a human or a robot powered with hydraulics
yes it does im excited
anyone else suffer fps lag with armor with multiple opponents?
gtx 1080 16gbr i7 7700k
The no look stab
How the hell did you dig up that message
Just wanted to see the blood that’s featured and I found that
Looks good tbh
It's the VERY old blood
GOOD EVENING HALF SWORD
i love the first person its amazing
like i dont have access but by seeing some videos on youtube its very promising
at first i thought it was vr lol
access is p much guaranteed i got accepted same day
a few days ago
oh yeah i saw in the faq
just click request access on steam
well im still not accessed so
the only thing i dont like about the game is that i get to see this every time i launch
every single time
dude the moment we spoke i got the email
kek
download it
i do every time
it takes less than a minute
i just asks me to install and uninstall every launch
just perma install it
can you play with friends in any way?
i mean im not sure if it will be much fun playing this with friends
would become boring after 30 minutes
playing solo is better in my opinion
You mean like this?
real men dont wear clothes at all
you underestimate the dedication of the autistic niche medieval playerbase
they show their pride to the battlefield
true true
theres to my knowledge no other game in this time period with these mechanics
so the market is owned by the dev lol
I do a lot of no clothes too
how do you get accurate with weapons
Skill
they feel so flimsy
be careful im approaching an npc with sexual intentions
after a few hours ive become a bit better with them
i think a big part of it is getting used to the feel of swinging and stuff
being REALLY ACCURATE takes probably a huge amount of skill and experience but you can be largely accurate after some gameplay methinks
if they add an actual moveable camera i would be the best
the camera i played with on the demon is horrible
yeah
sigh... not american.. how unfortunate...
truly the USA is the best country ever...
is this game multiplayer?
no
Live lessons gone bad.
https://www.twitch.tv/glenarzo/clip/SparklyBoxyUdonMoreCowbell-DrRExnwl2_6oALa1
does bro know he canchange classes
He does.
nope
It will not.
alr, how much will it be?
trillions
if online comes out, im goin for u first
be sure youll get rekt
hey
it is
I saw that
srry i missclicked i meant to reply to my message
check out the faq, it has all the info your probs gunna ask next
Too early in development for pricing to be set.
Come chill in stream!
https://www.twitch.tv/glenarzo
mmm alr, r u one of the devs?
fix the issue in playtest music doesnt save settings, every time i need to set it again
I am the community manager.
alr could u tell the devs to make an easy mode specifically for me because I suck
im kidding
but fr tho this is the first game ive played in a while that ive enjoyed ngl
pLEASE rename #general-catfish-🐱🐟 to off-topic or something like that
too many noobs halfswording my general chat
What is your favorite part so far?
Hit them with the gif
hmmmm, probably the fluidity of the combat and the physics and the difference of weapons, i used to love playing mordhau but the game started dying and eventually just became a small community thats very toxic
the physics adds a goofy aspect to the game aswell, only thing rn is no blood, i personally am not a fan of blood but without it its verry difficult to tell when you have actually hit someone
r u muslim bro?
half sword is on the same level as exanima for me, exanima isnt as brutal though
never played it
nah i dont believe in anything tho i used to be really into islam
used to be? like u left islam? or u just studied it
studied, debated converting as i was raised irish catholic
oh i see, thats cool
Keeping a community from turning to cancer is a hard job
there are like 1k people playing mordhau right now
it really is but its one of the things that if is done somehow, a game can be amazing
there are few games that have actually done that
We are trying!
ty!
i like playing blunt weapons in the knight class, pushing the enemy over, then breaking all of their fucking limbs
they do a really good job too
i joined the server last weekend and i've alr seen like 3 homophobes get insta banned after throwing a hissy fit over my pfp
its fun asf
very high skill ceiling aswell, should see some of the things people can do with parries n stuff 😭
so excited to see what happens with this game
How long does it usually take to be accepted into the demo
it took me a few minutes
y'all need to force a FAQ to be read before you let ppl speak just to avoid the "when multiplayer" or "when game release" every 20m
So no head?
or the "where is gore"
got the email saying ive got accest to play playtest but when i go to steam it dosent show up
restart your steam completely
btw does anyone know how to get a red tint on the camera mode, i have a bomb picture but it would be much better if it had a red tint
sometimes it's on steams end that it doesn't show up
every time someone asks they delay it by a week ..,.,,
Either you need to get hit, or add it in yourself editing
oh ok
getting hit can add some red on your screen
but yeah, camera mode doesn't have much yet
unrelated picture, he "grabbed" my sword and wont let go
similarly to how some servers force you to read the rules before being able to talk?
Yeah just like that c:
I think u stabbed his hand and it got stuck
i like that idea yeah
Oh god, make me the chosen one, make my fight a righteous one.....

sometimes the shit goes into the toilet.. sometimes the shit goes into my pants.. 😨
Wait there is a faq?
@mighty nexus
no please
he still has it
OH MY GODDD NO WHYYY
WITH THE PFP ASWELL LOL
isn't it supposed to go into the pants ? that's why you wear them at all
THIS IS SO PEAK
schlawginet thats called a diaper

What is this song choice?
willie is just like me
literally cant stand up without almost passing out
game crashes so much when i die and click go menu
Can I use that arena in the demo
Candlestick is very good
request to playtest on the steam page
how long does it take to get accepted? 🙂
anywhere from a few minutes to a day or so
just check your email often
I just killed an armored man with a dagger
anyone got an idea for a release date?
Next week
1984
Wow this is great. And it’s also mine now
Should’ve finished your watermarks bud
yo i found this game on social media and wanted to test it out, but im just randomly killing bots in an endless dark place
happens
never finished it, it was dumb.
didnt wanna send in general bc i dont know
The demo, endless abyss is a rogue lite type game with 6 bosses to go through
With better gear and more enemies as you go
Playtest is for duels and what not in an arena
yeah i got to the fourth badge or wtvr it is
do i get there once i defeat the bosses orr???? im just lost tbh
No if you want the playtest just request access through the steam store page for half sword and wait up to 28 hours but typically much faster
Playtest has vastly improved combat, AI and physics but there is no gore
Or progression like the demo
yeah general is for stuff not related to halfsword
is gore gonna be implented when the game is released?
Yes for sure. They’re going to add gore back to the game by November latest probably
the game left really good first impressions on me by the demo tho xd
probably one of the best games to relieve stress or shi
The demo is fantastic for sure. It’s a lot of fun but so is the playtest! It feels a lot better.
yeah i requested it on steam, looking forward to it
he looks depressed
they will just press the "i read it all" button
deal with it
he looks like he wants to die than live under the gasses
Tyvm for this art
does anybody know when they plan on adding gore and blood back into the playtest?
Likely October-November
6 of june 1944
Has to be my two favorite shots I've made so far.
First one gives me “you can’t see me” cena vibes
second one is baddass!
@soft osprey lol, dude stabbed me in the eye I think
thanks man haha
red filter will be insane when gore is back
quick question, how did you get the focus to work cuz mine doesnt change anything
not trying to copy just making one of me getting ready to brutaly murder this person while the bodys of what i can only asume are his friends lie in the backround
Look in the photo menu more lol
There's something like focus distance that's set to zero
I love fiddling with the focus. There are two sliders for it.
And lens lenght something like that that makes the focus more blurry or less
One adjusts the area of the focus to take effect, one is the focus itself and how much you wish to have it effect the area.
Focus distance and sensor width. @jovial wren
Yeah bro
Aperature is also a good way to get good enough lighting
Ah okay, never fiddlied with it. Imma try it out now.
my emotional support shield
@fallow ginkgo How tf did u do that bro lol
brother i wish i knew
LOL
half-sworded to try and get a joint
walked away w/ his shield
still killed him, but like
cool i got a trophy now
Incredible lmfao
so you know how some people surrender standing up
Yes the cowards
we need a setting that turns you into the terminator so you can rip limbs off etc
i was trying to get a picture of me about to beat their skull in and had to exit photo mode to adjust my angle, and they started runing away
I ended up getting angry and breaking his kneecaps
Fuckin poor Willie, man
i feel bad for one of the backround dudes
i broke all his limbs, but he didnt surrender so he just sat there in pain
"you can break my body but never my spirit"
“Background dudes” THEYRE ALL JUST WILLIE YOU MONSTER
but they were in the backround of my photo
also that dude almost killed me so he deserves it
I guess it depends who swung first
i was beating this other dude and he snuck up behind me and hit me in the head and almost killed me
ill i see is a dark ness how do i do the 1v1
Play the playtest
how
if you go to the store page you can hit "request access" and they will give it to you within a couple hours
i got mine in like 5 minutes
also read this #faq
btw does anyone know if this is a known bug?
i try to choose a spoilance match and it does this
?? whack
Spears are so goated.
spears are love
Yes it’s a bug that’s been posted here a few times before. You can post about it in #1047240101152960525 or #1262865420076187658
I love how this game captures how powerful spears are man, matches end so quick. It's realistic. Our species been going to war with them for thousands of years. It's a clear advantage over the sword.
Easy to use-little to no training..nice reach..very cheap to produce and easy to distribute..yeah spears are pretty great
Yes, exactly brother.
what is good fellow hoodlums
spears, fellow hoodlum
thousands of years of development and the long, pointy stick still wins
agree to disagree
gun still wins
I dont get why when you die it makes you go back to the fists rather than letting you keep your current loadout
because its not a game where you pick your loadout?
pointy stick versus really, really quick stones
You can by just hitting the option a bunch until you get a weapon you like
^
eh
fist betta
erm they are not stones?
i know they're not, it's a really silly simplification
i tried copying moves from KCD to half sword, makes first person easier
Are the mods going to add the endless mode to the playtest?
a man of culture
i feel like the Demo's gamemode is so based it'd be a shame loosing it
it will not be lost
for some reason first person is easier
until theres a sallet or the unable to see shit barbute
yall what should i improve with this picture
agreed
tried 1st but w/ those helmets it's just ridiculous
theres 1 sallet that you can see from in first person though its the one that you can see the eyes
half sword guns
m16 when
vignette? maybe a horizontal frame
"The centipede"
hol up lemme cook
oh my jesus
willie centipede
naw
vignet is alr maxed
the WILLIPEDE
beautiful
its still stuck 😭
willie-pede
oh god
Are ya'll enjoying the playtest more than the demo? or vice versa?
playtest
I like them both
^^
cinematic willipede
(retry) I'm a cheeky little mofo but whatever keeps me alive I guess lol
an abberation in the kingdom of God
but it's cinematic!
also I totally was not panicking nooo
whirlpool
hmm?
Blood when?
September 29th
Thats... sep 29th away though
the beta is still open for people who are only concerned about the gore aspect, until then we can only wait though
#faq for fuck sakes when are they gunna put this shit in the channels list
I am still hyped for the new gore system
it will make getting your weapon unstuck from your apponents face much more fun
Poor guy, didnt have a chance
go play soldier of fortune 2 if you care about blood and gore so much
naw that's on him homie he knew it was there, it was his dumbass that walked into it
yes he did and yes it is his fault
they need to expand the character screen cuz i cant tell if my weapon is a spear or smth else cuz the tip is out of the box
or add a spin button
yeah
or make the weapon seperate from the character so that it doesnt get all bugged out behind them or in a weird angle
anyone know how much fps the rtx 4060 gets in the playtest?
im using a 4060ti rn and can pin it at 120 epic settings
ohh cool good to know
im getting a 4060 soon, an upgrade from my intel integrated graphics
great card if you get it at the right price
@mighty nexus
tbh though id look at like a 2080ti if you can get it at a similar price
i noticed some people were shitting on it, but i think its a great card now because ive found it for a pretty decent price
and either way, im happy if its around 60fps
what a position to be in lol
it was only a bad card cause of the price tbh
id just go full 4060ti 16gb if its in your price range
yeah i'm probably gonna buy a 4060ti instead of just a 4060 seeings as it will give more fps
and it isnt too much more expensive
check 2080ti prices though, its a better card than both and sometimes you can get it super cheap
2080ti is better?
does it come with all the frame gen and stuff?
a 1080ti outperforms the 4060 sometimes and pretty much always matches it 💀
no iirc the 40 series is the only one with DLSS3 and FG
i am honoured
I just snapped a guys neck with a shovel
that has to be one of the shittest ways to go
at least the neck snaps are instant death unlike throat slice
Throat slice is one of my worst nightmares. I can’t even imagine the pain n shit
ye.. i usually beat them to death if i get a throat slice on them as a mercy, but if they have the spiked spear i let them bleed out
damn that bot had your leg
When gore coming back like have they made a specific date?
goedendag user spotted. Hellstorm Missile deployed
i took him to the ground for a few seconds

first kill was actually devious
the most cinematic kill Ive ever gotten in the game
How do you do this???
the kill?
I think I switched to one hand last second then grabbed it again after piercing him
i wonder where willie's head is
and btw pretty good screenshot
i just stabbed a guy and he just said "i yie-"
No set date.
This month?
nuh uh
If gore 2.0 is ready. We will know more after TGS at the end of this month.
the most dangerous weapon is a fucking goedendag
Ah
look at this
this goes hard
also a longsword and mace are bugging out and fly8ing all over the place on this one dude
no wonder it's the nightmare of half sword players
yeah i havent found a good counter unless you block with a two hand and bum rush
anything short of a polearm its over if i cant kill or disable in one hit
also is there a reason why it has so many big ass spikes? looking at images the weapon usually just had one spike, not looking like a spiked club
Chat, how to parry chat
I'm trying to run the Playtest on Linux with proton and there is an issue I haven't been able to resolve yet. Clicking the menu button after dying causes the game or my OS to crash 90% of the time. The game runs fine on my computer otherwise aside from having to set the graphics to poop, and I never had a similar issue in the Demo version.
The only solution I have right now is to not die
damn u on permadeath difficulty
I mean it does encourage you to win when death means your OS freezing up
just use the goendedag u will never die lol
There's first person??
tap v
surrdner option needs to be faster lol im bleeding out before able to surrender
A short spear and a shield would also like a word
well, I think I fucked up the wine prefix because now I cannot launch the game at all
i can beat that with a longsword
virgin goedendag fan vs chad longsword enjoyer
goedendag fans should be labelled and segregated from the rest of this server
wonder how gore will look with the goedendag
tyrophobic
why is it that when we get killed we have to go back to menu? Loading the main menu takes so much time
*in playtest
plus it takes a while to find the weapon I wanna use when it defaults to fists
limiting Wine to use 2 cores max seems to have stopped it from killing my PC, but the game still sometimes crashes when I return to menu
is it mp yet?
yes it is
no
im having trouble booting up the game is there somewhere i can go to get help?
What is the issue you are having?
so i got approved for play testing but when i load it up its just a black screen
and i installed the thing it told me to install
What are your PC specs? What if any error messages are you getting?
its telling me to install something from intel and i dont know my specs
i have an all in one
It’s probably saying your drivers outdated/has a known issue if it’s from Intel
is there a way to fix it?
Just follow the instructions it gives you to update it
Update your drivers.
its fully updated though
thats what is confusing me
Can you send a screenshot of the error message?
yeah
can i send images here?
Yeah it’s fine
Yeah I knew it. Just click yes, and follow the steps.
i did and still didnt work
What does it say after you press yes?
takes me to a website to install stuff that i already installed
Did you actually open the thing you installed?
Hmm
The install history doesn’t show anything about graphics
thats what im confused about
Do you have a dedicated graphics card?
i have no clue my computer is an all in one the moniter is the computer
Ah. Probably not then.
So you’re sure you opened the file you downloaded?
yeah
its downloaded and everything
Yeah. @little verge any ideas on this?
Tbh im at a loss here
I repaired the thing I downloaded
Then imma try it
Repaired? I’m confused.
I mean they said it was integrated graphics, so it’s not hard to deduce the type of CPU they have
Let me check if what I did worked
And I’ll get back to you
It did not work
what did you try?
So I did what the thing asked me to do all over again also restarted before I did that and that same white message keeps popping up
me too although sometimes when u charge, they jab u with the short spear
Have you tried reinstalling?
The playtesting not both
Hmm. It’s definitely not something with the files, it might be that your CPU itself has something wrong with it. Since it’s clearly not updating its graphics driver.
Dang
I really wanted to play the game
What’s your CPU? You can check it by opening task manager, clicking the symbol that looks like a heart rate monitor (called performance), and clicking on “CPU”
Most confusing conversation in this entire server
I can’t check rn I gotta go to bed
And it gets even more confusing
dang
Yeah sorry
How’s it confusing?
Wtf is going on lmfao
Maybe it isn't to you because you been engaged the entire time, but dude, if you just logged into this chat, this is hella odd
They were having issues with their graphics driver. Where their CPU wasn’t updating the driver to their iGPU, and couldn’t run Half Sword.
Dunno how to fix that. Seems like a problem with the CPU itself
I did that
But still didn’t work
how to center crosshair
There's a crosshair? You mean the F key? I never knew what it did
Nah they did that. That’s the problem. The CPU isn’t updating the drivers, even when the file is installed and opened.
The X thing is crosshair
Not a Hardware problem nonetheless, some windows fuckery
Maybe. But they did check the update history for the drivers, and it wasn’t showing up on there. So it could be either windows being windows, or their CPU decided to fuck itself
Cpus insanely rarely fail
Game crushes when I try to restart
Intel CPU instability: (yes I know it’s not related to this issue, but still)
Any error message?
Meh that's different tho
yes
I guess so, Intel fucked up
Still makes your CPU decide to shit itself and eat all your power
I never owned anything Intel lol
What does it say?
When your 40yo son still lives with his mother be like🤣🤣🤣
wild
a
Is this the demo or playtest?
steam demo
How much VRAM do you have?
itch io version playable and restartable
how do i get the player test
4 GB ram + Virtual ram
Yeah. Makes sense. Afraid you can’t run it. 4 gigs is crazy.
I can run but cant restart
ıf I die, I must close and reopen the game
Yeah. Because the game is using more VRAM to unload the old scene and reload a new scene
ok thanks
no, dont run into them then target their spear hand
ouch
All shield
Spear is fun to play. hard to master but doable
my game wont start :/
Any error message?
huh
it doesnt start up at all just sits idle in task manager
Idrk man. It’s like midnight for me. I would help but I’m exhausted. Try asking @little verge or @fast bramble for help. They’re both online right now.
PC specs?
i9-14900k, 4070ti 32gb
Dudes are having a blast come check it out!
https://www.twitch.tv/justrichardd
i verified game files it doesnt download any new
If you haven't yet, try making sure it's booting in DX11 by adding -dx11 to the Steam launch options, otherwise maybe a full reinstall.
demo boots up, playtest wont
Did you try my recommendation above?
And if none of that works, I recommend making a post about it in #1262488181035630634 with your PC specs so the devs can take a closer look.
I added that in game properties
A full reinstall is all I've got left
ye same thing after reinstall and with dx11 added
Hmmmm
One sec
Go to C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\VersionTest54\Saved\Config\Windows (replace "username" with your computer username), see if it has a file called GameUserSettings.ini. If it does, delete this file and see if it helps.
If that doesn't work, then make a post in #1262488181035630634 with your specs
Damn it didn't even get far enough to make one
Oh my goodness

Yeah, make the post so the devs can look into it as that all shouldn't be happening. Your specs are more than enough to run it
so i do need a better laptop
damn
Are we just stuck in the abys fighting until the next update?\
i see vids of other people doin cool stuff but i dunno how
Request access to the playtest on the Steam store page, wait a few hours, possibly less, possibly a bit more, and you'll be accepted, then install.
Oh okay i appreciate you, i actually already requested out of habit lol
всем привет)
do you have an idea how to land like accurate shots with any weapon
i wanna be doing like this in a fist fight
Idk what was better, that hay maker, or a dude I seen here a while ago absolutely decking a dude in the face with a shield.
Prepared for surgery >:)
how do i parry btw
You just hit their weapon with your weapon
also
THIS CUNT WONT SHARE
i cant time it
i try to then like i just get one tapped
Usalluly works better with weapons with longer reach
Current playtest with gore, possibly multiplayer one day and some character customization (height weight) and i pay full price
I remember I did that and @jolly gorge said that's not a parry 🤣🤣🤣
I don't remember saying that
you dont get to surrender if you say cuckold
I was told that was a parry
my guy legit knocked himself out via trying to do a backflip 😭
Imo the definition of parrying is protecting yourself by putting your weapon in the path of your enemy's strike and then moving it out of the way so you have a window to strike your enemy
Which, yes, is essentially striking your opponent's weapon
like this?
Pretty sure thats a parry yeah
go into a dark bathroom, spin 3 times while saying bloody mary bloody mary bloody mary
i made my enemy do the family guy death pose
Install Mass Clown's splitscreen mod and download RemotePlayWhatever
You can only use a controller though.
OK It's sounds diffcult
gooood mann
It's really not.
Okay I'll try it
thx too
how do i get out of the black void and play in the actual environments
Move in any direction it spawns loot and enemies for you to fight
To fight in the arena you gotta apply for playtest
Pay muneh
disabled sword or something
nice pfp vro
patrok
play the playtest instead of playing the Demo
missed that one, but yea make sure to request it on steam and wait for a smalll bit
go the playtest page and request acess and you should be accepted within 24 hours
What is brave stand?
I've played armored mode for a while, but thats new
Yeah it appears sometimes, prefer it over small burgurt
Watch Untitled and millions of other Half Sword videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
ufc ahh
bruh i was expecting a better final boss than a naked man 😭
Can you duel in this
you are a blessing on this earth
So the host will have an unfair advantage.
Me after 10 beers and I see the car keys
