[glad flint]

that was close

[floral birch]

give this man a grammy

or whatever mucians get

[opal sundial]

what kinda computer you got there

im curious

[tranquil ginkgo]

i will take the game awards when it comes 🙂

ryzen 7 7800, 4060 ti (8 ram) and 64 ram 🙂

[opal sundial]

dang 4060's becoming the new 3060

i have a 4060 myself as well

[tranquil ginkgo]

welcome to the club sire 🙂

[woeful forge]

why theres no gore at playtest

???

[opal sundial]

[floral birch]

coughs yea almost as good as the 4060

[woeful forge]

demo have a lot but playtest doesnt have it

[floral birch]

TI

[opal sundial]

im just talking about popularity

[glad flint]

gang rate my clips

[floral birch]

its a solid gpu and very good for its price

[opal sundial]

just like how the 3060 was the most used graphics card by steam users for a while, the 4060 is also rising since the 3060 production was discontinued

[glad flint]

the rx 580 is a solid gpu and very good for its price the rtx's are litereally the top of the line

[opal sundial]

good malware you should make another song like the "Hey, hey, hey" one (idk the name, and cant find a clip of it right now)

[woeful forge]

Im using a RX 7700XT

[floral birch]

top tier reply

[woeful forge]

its better than the 4060 but worst than the 4070

[glad flint]

how much does it cost in dollars

[opal sundial]

if you're looking to upgrade, you will most definitely have to upgrade your cpu along with it

[woeful forge]

i got it for 607 dolars

[glad flint]

thats what i was planning

[floral birch]

agreed

[glad flint]

multiply that by 5 and thats how much of my currency i need to buy it

[woeful forge]

570-607 dolars

[glad flint]

without other upgrades for no bottleneck

[floral birch]

just remember to upgrade power bank if needed to, bigger gpu needs more power

[woeful forge]

lolll

[tranquil ginkgo]

hahahh i dont know when a song is a banger; people will say that hahahh; i didnt think el monte was a banger, it wasnt even be in the game hahahh but for an error end it up there an now is like the official theme of half sword

[woeful forge]

im from brazil so i got it by 3100$

its crazy

[opal sundial]

is that the name of it? Also are any of your songs available to stream anywhere atm?

[glad flint]

execution style

[tranquil ginkgo]

there is a half sword ost on youtube, but lacks a couple of songs and its from the Demo ost, not the playtest ost

[opal sundial]

dang

[flat fern]

oh my god vro

L CLIPS!!

[glad flint]

you're literally a copy of rick

pipe down

ur a figment of my imagination

[flat fern]

i never met the guy first of all

dumbass

[glad flint]

3 fps

[zenith sigil]

Hey guys, whats exactly means the convergence name on the new update?

[opal sundial]

its not a new update. Convergence is just the name TGS gives idk why

[zenith sigil]

Oh i see, i've thought that was the name for some new update

Ty for the reply

[opal sundial]

np

[soft osprey]

Convergence-the act of converging. Converging-to converge.

[soft osprey]

Get it?

[glad flint]

this weapon suck

even in reverse grip

i almost died

[cerulean needle]

Literally one of the best weapons

[glad flint]

fym??/

its trash

[cerulean needle]

Have you tried not using it as a sword

[glad flint]

yes

i almost died

not even my first time with it either

[cerulean needle]

You are remaining too static and not using any footwork

[cursive gate]

i just wish the stabbing mechanic was more consistent

[glad flint]

and what are your qualifications mr smartass

[cerulean needle]

Using a pole arm.

[glad flint]

i use a pole arm too what a coincidence

[cursive gate]

you two play nice now

[cerulean needle]

You don't close in immediately and slash close quarters like a sword trying to help you here

[glad flint]

is this guy actually real rn

[cursive gate]

he's not wrong, you gotta stay at longer range

[cerulean needle]

Was that a controversial statement ?

I don't understand

[glad flint]

have yall actually watched any of my clips at all

[cerulean needle]

Yes it's exactly how you act with a polearm

[glad flint]

idk man flailing it around hoping to hit aint using it

[cerulean needle]

That looked accidental to you? Haha

[cursive gate]

in his defense lmao it still worked

[glad flint]

"ah yes lets say that it was on purpose"

[cerulean needle]

Do you know what a feint or flourish is

[cerulean needle]

Those clips are fine, but using distance with the full extent of your polearm is what your meant to do, it's not some new concept

[cerulean needle]

You'll get a much better feel for polearms without using something that's easy to swing and blunt focused, it will become muscle memory so you can consistently flourish and feint into one shots

Especially without full plate armor

[glad flint]

just admit it do you fucking 24/7 halfsword

[cerulean needle]

I have 30 hours

That's a weird transition🤣

[tepid dust]

in the playtest everytime i try to punch my character punches guys he kinda just shakes his hands and they are locked into the blocking position, Is the punching bad or do i have a sensitivy issue

[tepid dust]

yeah but he still does the shake stuff. the puncing felt a lot better in the demo and there was not even a proper punching system!

[loud river]

It’s a sens issue

[tepid dust]

How do i fix my sensitivity

[loud river]

The faster you move, It’ll register as a proper swing

[tepid dust]

nvm

[loud river]

Just gotta turn it up, swing sharper

[tepid dust]

found it

[glad flint]

clean shot to head he didnt even get knocked out smh devs fix this

/s

[cerulean needle]

You may need a hit to the prefrontal Cortex to fix aggression

[glad flint]

\

[tepid dust]

yeah it helped. i still think the demo was a lot more fun (not because of gore). Like you could know a enemy over without tripping on them constantly, and the old health system felt a lot better

[tepid dust]

dude i didnt even relieze that there was more then 2 levels in the playtest

[honest nest]

how do i get access to half sword

[glad flint]

#faq

[stuck island]

he is fly:)

[obsidian iron]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7drUCDfjvP0

[arctic cradle]

Pretty sure its called a flachion

Here it is

Well something similar anyways

[stuck ivy]

anyone know what body density actually changes

[heavy cave]

thank u

[arctic cradle]

I almost saw jesus

[near arch]

The Tokyo game show is this weekend, does that mean blood update this week?

[arctic cradle]

There is no offical release date of when blood returns

[true thorn]

the enemy willie is using karate moves what do i do

[arctic cradle]

If you were told october, person who told you was misinformed

[near arch]

not what the faq says. Faq says blood comes after tokyo gameshow

[arctic cradle]

Idk, wonder beast is the one that said it

Pretty sure i can dig his announcement out real quick

[soft osprey]

Yeah-after the show. It doesn’t give you a date though. It just says after, meaning at some point after the game show is over

[arctic cradle]

Thats what i was looking for, thank you, giant statue man

[soft osprey]

You’re welcome. Now I’m going to reward you for your kindness with this

[arctic cradle]

How the fuck is he still alive?

[true thorn]

it only hit his brain

willies dont need brains

enotsmug

[arctic cradle]

[jolly gorge]

[jolly gorge]

trainer mod

[stoic sedge]

sparta

[true thorn]

this willie is alive and well

[jolly gorge]

just a scratch

[true thorn]

this one is even worse

he had enough fight left to try and kill me

he didnt stop until i punched him

and even then that didnt damage him enough to kill him because the surrender accepted voiceline played

[nimble sphinx]

does anybody have the lyrics for that

such a banger to listen to

[flat fern]

i mean realisticly..if you mis sthe brain..

they could live..maybe..

knighting around

[left spear]

[flat fern]

[left spear]

[left spear]

[versed wadi]

OOOOOPS. What an unfortunate place to get stabbed

[jade eagle]

the champion

[gusty summit]

Imagine getting banned from a server about a game that glorifies gorey pit fighting I can't even

[soft osprey]

What

[near lichen]

pc console gta6

[gusty summit]

yeah

exactly

[dense ridge]

wut

[versed wadi]

Not exactly a flawless victory here 😂

[warped onyx]

My proudest victory

Gaddafi’d

[loud river]

Many, many have been.

[rocky steppe]

will there be blood in the updates release ;-;

[loud river]

#faq

[smoky quail]

why do spear thursts literally just slide off enemies even if they're unarmored

[dense ridge]

its hard to aim stabs in general for me

[loud river]

You really gotta drive em in. Try holding Alt and shift, time movements with stabs.

[versed wadi]

you might say that I um. Burried the hatchet.

[loud river]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1043854764095582260/1262513854550642829/Moments-clip-from-Jul-15-2024.mp4?ex=66abf727&is=66aaa5a7&hm=f7142a2d58485b18a4086cb5ab3dd243a89c8089d848c29538f2b74af8f4042d&

[smoky quail]

I had the basic short spear that had the extra blades on it's sides and I drove that shit into opponent's neck, they're literally getting pushed back but nothing happened, then I got hit by their billhook on my arm, then I die

[loud river]

The short spear is much the same, just slightly more risky. Same rules apply though.

[versed wadi]

yooo how are you dashing like that

[loud river]

Go for gut stabs, it’s more reliable.

[flat fern]

i am him

[loud river]

Hold shift. If you don’t mash movement keys, you get bursty dash-like movement with quick taps.

[versed wadi]

I had no idea you could do that, thanks for sharing!

[loud river]

Of course! The skill ceiling is wildly high in this game already!

[true thorn]

more painful too i believe

[loud river]

Lmfao got that right. They usually stop fighting immediately.

[ashen badger]

they need to drop a katana

[true thorn]

a katana wouldnt fit the style

like at all

[ashen badger]

its literally a sword but go off king

[true thorn]

yeah

a japanese sword

the entire game is styled after 15th century europe

[weak roost]

Yep! Exanima type movement works very well. Keeping your balance is just as important.

[ashen badger]

bro really said whites only

[weak roost]

L

[loud river]

Affirmed by the Half Sword champion himself!

[ashen badger]

get your boy blue

[loud river]

Nah he’s right lol

[warped onyx]

I just speared this man right in the eye 😭 I love this game

[loud river]

It’s a game set in Southern Germany in the late 15th century. The most out there stuff you’ll see is like, maybe some Arab dudes and kit

[distant bison]

its so hard to land a punch

[flat fern]

sigh

[loud river]

Try practicing with actual weapons first, learn the combat, then try fist fight. Fist fighting is generally harder than using weapons.

[warped onyx]

Once you get the controls down you’ll feel like Connor McGregor in his prime

[flat fern]

or alternatively

[grave tundra]

why isn't there even blood in the trailer, they weren't supposed to present it at the show in Tokyo and then add it to the current version of the game

[loud river]

#faq

[true thorn]

because they dont have a version of this build with blood

at all

[grave tundra]

okay i get it

[orchid shard]

requested playtest on steam. how long will it take there?

[true thorn]

give it a day or 2

[orchid shard]

ah okie

[worn heron]

we can getcha in within 3 hours probably

[orchid shard]

that would be awsome 😄

[worn heron]

I'm playing games with my community manager tonight, he's just doing something with his family atm, when he's back I'll get him to clear the queue

[orchid shard]

appreciated 🙂

[true thorn]

is all the art unique to the game?

if not then how much of it is

[versed wadi]

That was literally an insta down. Those gut/chest shots with the right weapon like an axe, just destroy. Looove it

[loud river]

All made by the artist here

I sadly forget his name atm

[flat fern]

good malware?

[loud river]

Indeed!

[flat fern]

YOUR community manager?

some photo's showcasing A greatsword and armor

i thought he was OUR

[true thorn]

[opal sundial]

tf is delta

[topaz flower]

delta windows 91201783563561345

[opal sundial]

what

[topaz flower]

i use dell computer windows 11

[opal sundial]

tf are you saying right now my brother

[topaz flower]

this pc

[opal sundial]

that doesnt help me in figuring out what recording software you're using

[topaz flower]

bro i use prtsc button

[opal sundial]

that doesnt record though. It only takes a shot of your screen

[topaz flower]

i use snipping tool

[opal sundial]

that makes more sense

[topaz flower]

this is what i use

[opal sundial]

just use medal or something

also, what are your specs

[topaz flower]

this k

[tropic notch]

Do you guys know when it might release on console if you end up putting the playtest on console

[opal sundial]

sure

[opal sundial]

but also what are your specs

im curious what dell puts in their OEMS nowadays

[zenith hazel]

is there no blood in playtest

[topaz flower]

do u mean device specification or windows

[opal sundial]

like what cpu/gpu do you have

that kinda stuff

[versed wadi]

RIP

[tropic notch]

Like xbox

[topaz flower]

this

[opal sundial]

gpu at all?

[zenith hazel]

does the blood setting not work

[topaz flower]

graphics prosseser unit

[opal sundial]

yes

do you have one

[topaz flower]

this is the one

[opal sundial]

ah. And how much did you pay for the whole thing?

[topaz flower]

₱9,660

pesos

[opal sundial]

what kind of pesos

[topaz flower]

flilpino money

[opal sundial]

you paid about the right amount

[topaz flower]

what do u mean

[opal sundial]

OEM manufacturers like Dell are known to price their computers really high

compared to what it should be

[orchid shard]

me still waiting to get in the playtest

[topaz flower]

yeah

[timid estuary]

U will still get it dw

[orchid shard]

Yeah eventually. Hoping before baby gets born. Its due today. So if it comes today i cant play for 2 weeks. So if it comes tomorrow instead i prob get chance to play before some offline time xd

[topaz flower]

an attacker kindly kisses my head

[hoary orchid]

cut on the dotted line ass photo

[orchid shard]

finally xd

[surreal moth]

i always either weaken my enemy or catch them off with a grab, and while i have them grabbed i punch them a lot

great strategy

always works and super fun

[mortal vector]

has anyone made a mod that lets you spawn in any of the tiers instead of starting in the first one (demo)

[lament wraith]

low tier duels are pretty fun!

[balmy wind]

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/iJVuPNz6SIma3n68W/d13374eq1DSP?invite=cr-MSxNb1gsMTk5NzIwMzEyLA

Stabby

[balmy wind]

Cleaved his head off !

[noble warren]

[dense island]

I wish your arms didn't have the ability to twist in stupid ways

completely ruined one of the better runs I had because my character decided he wanted to be double jointed in every limb and not be able to do shit to attack

[mortal vector]

i wish the game would work properly for me

[lament wraith]

how so?

[runic hollow]

like this?

[lean elbow]

Am I the only one that gets annoyed by death music in playtest

[runic hollow]

i always have music off so idk

[dense island]

pretty much, I mean I love the game but jesus

and yes

I know it's still a playtest

[mortal vector]

i have to wait 10 mins for the game to start and everytime i start a new level it immediately says i died

[dense island]

so, it has fuckin, a year or more of ironing out to do

so lots of room

[patent heron]

i got the play test how do i go into a battle?

[oblique flint]

Dlc

[patent heron]

there are no dlcs

[patent heron]

oh thanks

[lean elbow]

why are npcs so unhonourable

[runic hollow]

and here is how that even happend, it's really strange

[lean elbow]

they beat laying people

[runic hollow]

fr like let me chop you and feed you to my pet snake god dangit

[runic hollow]

they do and i often get killed because they like to slice me to death before i can give them the win by holding g

[glad flint]

they need the advantage

[runic hollow]

true ngl

[glad flint]

especially against people who actually learned how to aim

[lean elbow]

oh yea

true

[runic hollow]

like with throwing weapons or just normal melee

[lean elbow]

I understand now

[glad flint]

why not both

[runic hollow]

cuz i'm learning how to throw the weapons sharp ends at the attacker

[glad flint]

not that useful usually

[runic hollow]

true

[glad flint]

better focus on hitting ur shots

[runic hollow]

but cool

[runic hollow]

yeah

[glad flint]

this is why willies need the advantage when im down

[dense island]

LOL

[runic hollow]

throwing the weapons may be un reliable and not do much but it's sick as hell

[tiny iris]

how are you able to play different modes

[glad flint]

lil bro folded nahh

[flat fern]

i agree!

[glad flint]

something something pinned messages

[polar palm]

this counts as a win somehow (i'm red)

[runic hollow]

you may thing you folded that guy but check what i did to this guy

[runic hollow]

[glad flint]

willie got backhanded

[runic hollow]

he was for sure getting the longest sleep ever after that smack

[glad flint]

[glad flint]

dx11 or 12?

[tacit thicket]

dx11

dx12 is extremely unoptimized

[lofty quiver]

alright

[polar palm]

damn it. the PERFECT song played and i messed up the clip

[mortal vector]

they should really add more graphics settings

like shadows

[polar palm]

this wouldve gone so hard if i was good at the game

[lofty quiver]

i feel like high has some really bad sharpening

[tacit thicket]

holy frame rate

[tacit thicket]

yeah for now the settings are really bare bones

[polar palm]

hey 80 on cinematic and while running like 5 programs is not bad

[tacit thicket]

give them enough time they'll deliver :)

[tacit thicket]

oh shit 80 on cinematic??

i wasnt familiar with your game

[polar palm]

80 on cinematic While recording

[tacit thicket]

you're playing on a nasa super computer

[rain lantern]

Does this game have pvp

[tacit thicket]

im fine with my 160 ish on high and solid 100 on epic

[polar palm]

WHY HAS MY CPU BEEN UP FOR 5 DAYS

that explains my weird spikes

[tacit thicket]

im willing to sacrifice some graphics for frames

[tacit thicket]

nope and likely will never

we'll see

[polar palm]

local split screen is a mybe and that's it

[rain lantern]

So just against AI

[tacit thicket]

yeah

you have pretty wide range

[polar palm]

this is a shitbox i got on sale from Elgiganten i hate to tell ya

[mortal vector]

can anyone help me

[tacit thicket]

can you list some specs?

im really curious

[mortal vector]

whenever i start a level it immediately says i lost

how to fix?

[polar palm]

i err uuhh

[tacit thicket]

???

thats new

[polar palm]

how do i see those again? idk jack shit about computer other than "heehoo big number"

really gotta let my cpu rest a bit. it's trying to kill itself rn

[patent heron]

can i turn blood on in the beta test?

[polar palm]

see #faq for blood questions

it's not back yet

[patent heron]

oh akr

alr*

[mortal vector]

i just wanna play spoilance but it says i lost :(

[polar palm]

reboot the game. if it's still bogged fuck around with game settings?

[tacit thicket]

open task manager > performance

you can find CPU, Ram, SSD and GPU

[mortal vector]

also what is spoilance

[polar palm]

says i got a 3060

[polar palm]

you spawn without weapons

[mortal vector]

i know it gives like random items but it keeps giving me only knifes

[polar palm]

gotta find em on the floor

[tacit thicket]

hol on

list everything

ram too

how the hell you're running cinematic on 80 fps with 3060

i run it at 30 with a 4060

[mortal vector]

also whenever it says i died i gotta go to menu and it takes too long for it

how to fix

[warm moth]

the trailer is fire

[polar palm]

idk what any of this means so uuh have fun deciphering this

[keen mountain]

if you spawn with a knife, then its carnage and not spoilance

[tacit thicket]

cant fix you just have not to die

[keen mountain]

with the lowest tier character on carnage everyone spawns with a random knife

[tacit thicket]

or hold g to surrender if you feel youre about to die

[keen mountain]

means its taking up a good bunch of your ram

[mortal vector]

it literally said spoilance to

[keen mountain]

you shouldnt be spawning with a knife on your hand in spoilance

[polar palm]

i wonder why....

[tacit thicket]

i mean you got a pretty ok pc

are you sure you're running it on cinem?

[keen mountain]

https://tenor.com/view/ace-attorney-von-karma-phoenix-wright-gif-21692625

[polar palm]

never mind. apparently it displayed cinematic mode but didn't save it. put on cinematic and wehnt down to 22 frames. oops

[tacit thicket]

oh ok figures lol

[polar palm]

oh my god i put the game on low and everything turned whiter than my scandinavian ass what the hell

[tacit thicket]

flashbang

[polar palm]

gotta run it at least on high to not make it a winter wonderland

hmm so thats odd. eithe i'm just REAL good at timing ooorr

every time i stab someone they instnatly die when i let go of the blade

[tacit thicket]

stab are pretty much instakills

in the chest, head and shoulders atleast

[polar palm]

only applies to two handed swords and torso shots from what i can tell

[polar palm]

consider:

[woven nexus]

💀

Definitely not how its intended to be played but have fun how you have fun

[polar palm]

it's oddly fun once you get past how... i want to say flaccid? is that good word? english is dumb language

[mortal vector]

why does spoilance only have tier 1 items

[polar palm]

spoilance is only avialbe on the two lowest tiers

only you. your hands. and a chair.

[stone raft]

bro I just took the most beautiful halfsword photo I will ever take

[mortal vector]

they should make it so that you could get any tier weapon

for more fun

[polar palm]

NO WAY I JUST HIT THAT

[stone raft]

Wss

[polar palm]

fully broken arms. no control

[stone raft]

Bro look at this photo tho

[stone raft]

Its a story of romance, murder, and the kingdom

[polar palm]

and history will call them great friends~

[stone raft]

fr

im still in the situation tho

hes got me in a choke hold little prison with his weapon and he wont let me leave

[polar palm]

i love this so much it's so dumb

[stone raft]

also sorry for the greenday in the bg Im js bored so 🤷‍♂️

[polar palm]

you do not have to apologise for playing green day. i have my awful music taste in all my clips lol

[stone raft]

😂

[runic hollow]

bro i'm trying to do this but it's not working, it worked once in the peasant fist play then never again

[stone raft]

OH I GLITCHED OUT

[stone raft]

wait no way that actually works

[runic hollow]

it does

it's just so annoying to figure out

[stone raft]

putting it in the right location?

[runic hollow]

yup

lemme try again

[stone raft]

try retracing your steps from fist play

[mortal vector]

time to uninstall playtest again since it sucks for my laptop

[stone raft]

damn

I remember my old laptop

I tried using it just yesterday cause I was in a town for my moms work and I had todo my online school hw and it blue screened trying to boot up

i had todo the work on my phone

[frozen kindle]

chat does this go hard

[stone raft]

yes

[timid estuary]

[frozen kindle]

this the full pic

[stone raft]

W

also is it just me or does one of the insults the guys yell in the playtest sound extremely close to the n word

[frozen kindle]

yes

it does

i thought it was the n word

[stone raft]

what does it actually say>

cause I think that too

but i know its nto

not

[frozen kindle]

[stone raft]

Fair😂

[stone raft]

wdym by other gamemodes

[tiny iris]

im on this void one

[stone raft]

ohh

[tiny iris]

[stone raft]

goto the steam store page and click request playtest and wait to be accepted

[tiny iris]

oh

[stone raft]

it wont take too long

[tiny iris]

how long would it take?

[stone raft]

they accept people every few hours

[tiny iris]

okay sweet

[stone raft]

idk about this late but 🤷‍♂️

[runic hollow]

uhhhhh, i think i did it wrong

[stone raft]

Definitely slipped up somewhere💀 😂

[frozen kindle]

WOAH

[stone raft]

wrong type of combat

[runic hollow]

willie is going to jail for public nudity

[stone raft]

fr

[idle crane]

Eggard

[frozen kindle]

is this what half sword means

[stone raft]

ohhhhh

[stone raft]

😭

[summer folio]

i need help

[runic hollow]

idk if i'll get kicked for sending what "it" as in his lil pecker looks like but they made it a little nub not an actual dick

[stone raft]

BRO I JUST HEADBUTTED AN NPC AND WE BOTH TOOK HELLA CONCUSSION DAMAGE AND BOTH ALMOST DIED AT THE SAME TIME😂

[runic hollow]

lol

[frozen kindle]

i think most games do that

[stone raft]

yeah you shouldnt get kicked for that

[stone raft]

they had to emphazise the not

your cooked

[idle crane]

You can send naked Willie. No other stuff like that tho

[stone raft]

Willies better than those other OF girls anyways

[runic hollow]

NO WILLIE YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO HIM

[stone raft]

WILLIES A SERIAL KILLER

[frozen kindle]

willie is definitely hairy

down there

[stone raft]

looks to be

[idle crane]

It's a shadow glitch. He is smooth

[stone raft]

ITS BEEN CONFIRMED

[runic hollow]

nope willie is not hairy nor packing ANY meat

[stone raft]

Willie is a smooth baby boy

[timid estuary]

how do u get willie naked

[frozen kindle]

wear tom ford tuscan leather

[runic hollow]

deleated some clothing files and what not

[timid estuary]

OOOOOOOOOO

[runic hollow]

i still have backups

so i can put them back on

[timid estuary]

u can uninstall and install half sword again to fix

[runic hollow]

dw ik how to fix it

i did it earlier

[stone raft]

I should uninstall all of the clothing items in half sword and rename my game "Freaky sword"

[frozen kindle]

id just name it full sword

[patent heron]

if u have the play test will u get the ba se game for free?

[stone raft]

I dont think thats been decided by the devs yet

[timid estuary]

where are the clothing files

[patent heron]

okay thanks

[stone raft]

ye

[polar palm]

"ay bro you good"

once they make it so the camera can go through meat we're balling

[mortal vector]

will the realistic gore be added to the demo or only the playtest

[analog pelican]

might be a little stupid

[polar palm]

demo will not be getting updated. they will continue working on playtest.

[stone raft]

yea

[mortal vector]

but playtest is too laggy for my laptop 😔

you know what would be a cool feature tho

if you could make your own loadouts

instead of presets

[runic hollow]

alright i did it

[stone raft]

where was the clothing files

[polar palm]

that's sadly not the devs fault. it's a laptop. an unholy machine

[mortal vector]

lets hope

[stone raft]

poor peasent willie bouta get his shi rocked

[patent heron]

fr

[mortal vector]

unless they add more optimization settings like shadows

[runic hollow]

read and find the files

[stone raft]

oh alr

i knew that

trust

[runic hollow]

it'll be in the saved game files

[polar palm]

how many frames you get running the lowest settings?

[patent heron]

how do u check?

[mortal vector]

like 15 possibly

[stone raft]

Shit it does work

[analog pelican]

i get about 15 frames and then when it tries to render the 16th frame the game crashes.

[stone raft]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[runic hollow]

crazy

[stone raft]

HE TOOK MY SWORD AND ALL I HAVE IS HIS LITTLE KNIDE

LITTLE KNIFE

[runic hollow]

beat him to death

it's 2 punches to the head

[stone raft]

he broke my arm

nvm

[runic hollow]

CRAZY, LOSING TO A LEVEL 10 CROOK

[stone raft]

left arm W

[stone raft]

I AM A LEVEL 40 KNIGHT WHO SERVES THE LEVEL 100 BOSS

I COULD NEVER

[runic hollow]

i beg to differ

[polar palm]

i just use steam fps display

[stone raft]

I held out for the king

[polar palm]

yeah no i dont think the game will run on a toaster dawg

[stone raft]

(I tapped bro and he started crying)

[runic hollow]

i have to beat the shit out of him for (sounding like he said the n word)

[stone raft]

real

its the one cannon event thatll stop him from being racist

[runic hollow]

fr

Willie is being charged with public nudity, racism and living

[supple cedar]

@worn heron LOOK ITS NOT ONLY ME WHO THINKS THAT

[patent heron]

definitely said it

[idle crane]

It's eggard

He says eggard

[runic hollow]

i swear it sounds so much like it, i know you know what i mean but thanks for the clarification that it ISN'T the word

[supple cedar]

there still will be people that think that its n word because they dont read (mantic's message)

[patent heron]

how long does acsess take?

[supple cedar]

isnt longer than a day

[patent heron]

alr thanks

just asking for my friend

[mortal vector]

i did the coolest kill ever

i stabbed a guy in the ribs and got the axe out trough the head decapitating him

[little wren]

[patent heron]

i thought u couldnt decaptitate because blood and gore is gone for now

[supple cedar]

i think he is talking about demo

[patent heron]

oh alr

blood will be back soon right cuz its near the end of the tokyo game thing

[idle crane]

Adrak hello

[mortal vector]

i think that when the gore is back after the tokyo thing it will be the revamped one

[idle crane]

Blood will be back when it's done

https://discord.com/channels/1043854763189600337/1279922212421505149

[patent heron]

thats looks so cool

[little wren]

Helloww Mantic

[idle crane]

https://tenor.com/view/forest-gump-wave-hi-hello-howdy-gif-22164679

[little wren]

Run forest run..

[little wren]

Your friend should have the access now.

[mortal vector]

im praying for optimizations next update

[patent heron]

yep thanks

[patent heron]

im praying gore gets added back very soon cuz it ended

[restive glade]

is TGS over?

[idle crane]

It's the last day today

[restive glade]

you're saying it ends on the 30th then?

[ripe meteor]

Optimisation usually comes last in a development process

[idle crane]

No it ends today they just have stuff happening before then

[restive glade]

ive heard galaxy mention that gore will have little effect on performance, other features? im not sure

[restive glade]

ah, so in a couple of hours?

[idle crane]

I don't know what time it is in Japan but probably

[restive glade]

jeez its 19:15 pm already

[ripe meteor]

Crazy how half sword is 5% done but it’s already at Tokyo Gameshow

[idle crane]

Well it may be over lol

[restive glade]

AND its 29th of september there

[plucky lintel]

someone should try using reshade in the game

[restive glade]

no timezone day-delays

if thats how you say it

[restive glade]

frank and the team might be heading home right now

but who knows

[idle crane]

We have a member of the discord Freshe. He has made a reshade recently

[plucky lintel]

has he?

i'm impressed

[supple cedar]

is there a link for it

[idle crane]

I think he is still making it actually

But there is another reshade that you can find somewhere I'll try find a link for that one

[supple cedar]

ok

[idle crane]

I think that may also be made by Freshe but I'm not certain

[supple cedar]

make freshe reshade manager

[plucky lintel]

i mean you could probably make your own preset

[glad flint]

5 seconds is 20mb crazy

[jolly gorge]

I looked up on the internet when the Tokyo Game Show ends, and it showed that it ends today. Is that true?

[idle crane]

https://www.nexusmods.com/halfsword/mods/4 Freshe did make it

[ripe meteor]

Yes

[jolly gorge]

nice

[plucky lintel]

mixed feelings

[supple cedar]

sooo how do i use it

[idle crane]

It's after 7pm in Japan so it's probably over

[plucky lintel]

you need to install reshade to half sword

[supple cedar]

is there toturial when downloading?

[idle crane]

I have no idea

[supple cedar]

no shit

[supple cedar]

okay

[plucky lintel]

tfw you hit someone in the head with a blunt weapon and can hear the bones cracking

[plucky lintel]

not the bhop song 😭

[glad flint]

it makes my skill go up fr fr ong

rate my kill tho

[plucky lintel]

fire/10

i was honestly waiting for willie to start bhopping lmfao

[tropic obsidian]

willie reshade had me thinking you had to install something for the gore update for a second

[plucky lintel]

ngl i'm kinda tempted to make my own reshade preset for hs

[runic hollow]

sorry for the black box, i forgot to edit that, it happens when i screen record

[plucky lintel]

i was just about to say

[tropic obsidian]

why would you do this to the poor willie

[runic hollow]

cuz i'm evil

[plucky lintel]

willie doesn't deserve such treatment

[tropic obsidian]

you hurt him^

[runic hollow]

and touched him

but i cut that part out

[glad flint]

this

fucking

mother fucker

survived like 20 good blows to the head and another 50 bad ones

[icy cobalt]

when i die the game crashes and says resolution issue but ik i have plenty. any fix or jut wait for a update?

i mean ik my pc can run it*

[idle crane]

Do it. It can't hurt to have more available

[glad flint]

ah yes you have enough resolution to play this game

[idle crane]

Right now I think Freshe is the only one who has made a playtest reshade

[icy cobalt]

i miss worded it lol

[glad flint]

rate my pixels

[plucky lintel]

2009 youtube lookin

[plucky lintel]

i'll try my best

haven't made a preset since i made my beamng one

[idle crane]

I imagine if you got in touch with Freshe he could point you in the right direction

[plucky lintel]

i mean i myself have got some reshade experience

okay good thing is i managed to install it to hs

[idle crane]

Fair enough

[plucky lintel]

okay reshade works

[plucky lintel]

now to mix and match some effects

[glad flint]

sigma

[plucky lintel]

here's a before and after

some pretty subtle changes

also added a bit of motion blur

[trail nacelle]

Does half sword have stuttering problems for people sometimes? Some days it works fine and others not so much.

[patent heron]

can you throw stuff?

[plucky lintel]

@idle crane you think this works?

[idle crane]

Looks good to me.

[plucky lintel]

i'll upload it to nexus then

[idle crane]

Awesome

[short dew]

i slammed willie to the ground

and dont question the quality its nice👍🏼

[mortal vector]

how do u do those?

i wonder if you can use trainer on playtest

[short dew]

you have to touch him in the ass or low back with both/one hand and he mostly just crocodile death rolls till you release him or you fling or just slamm him

or like the lower side of him with both hands just in the ass and he will fling or do the things i said

but this mostly works when hes knocked or down

i just tested it and the legs work too

[near lichen]

cant, runs on different version of ue

[short dew]

like this is another example for the slam and if he gets hit in the head you mostly win

[short dew]

yeah the slam is controllable alot

[gray cradle]

is local split screen a thing already or will it be added later?

[short dew]

starfish ahh slam

[short dew]

i think rn it isn't im not sure

[timid estuary]

Whats lock on strenght btw

[idle crane]

It was shown at the TGS. So i imagine it will be added in the next few updates

[gray cradle]

Les go

[glad flint]

i know how multiplayer can work

LAN

local network

removes ping issue

[atomic pewter]

if you click F then it forces you to look at Willie

[near lichen]

that wont fix desync though, which will be the biggest problem for a fully simulated physics game

[atomic pewter]

and strength just changes how much 'strong' it is

[near lichen]

its not an official thing yet but you can download a mod that makes split screen work on the demo version

[glad flint]

i love low tier

[gray cradle]

Nice, ill try that

[ripe meteor]

That axe is EVIL

Cuts right through chainmail

[near lichen]

check out Mass Clown's split screen mod on github (i think) or nexus mods

just follow the directions and it'll be there

[atomic pewter]

what is the friendly blood thing in the Demo?

[gray cradle]

Thanks :)
