[remote crypt]

I mean do the research and you'll likely find out

I just enjoy peasant sword

[quick torrent]

yeah its fun haha

[silent gorge]

whenever i get a claymore the game spawns all spearmen

[remote crypt]

Bonk the spears away

[silent gorge]

instructions unclear
spear stabbed my groin

[quick torrent]

hey i found it, thanks for encouraging me

i didnt think it was possible haha

wont tell a soul about it though

[remote crypt]

❤️

[wooden socket]

lobotomy

[proven pivot]

I want whatever u guys talking about pls

[south totem]

i grabbed my polearm like a sword with two hands at the back but cant seem to recreate it, was that a glitch or a secret holding position or smtin

[idle crane]

Glitch

[south totem]

damn that looked hella cool

[idle crane]

There is a way to recreate but idk how

@boreal path you know how right?

[boreal path]

yes !

[south totem]

go on

[boreal path]

right click and hit x at the same time so you hold it in your left hand, and then hit x again to put it in your right hand - usually, for just a moment, your character will hold it only with his right hand - press x AGAIN when he's doing that

so right click + x, x, x

[remote crypt]

@proven pivot press Up up down down left right left right B A

[boreal path]

and you can switch to left handed grip without "losing" the funky grip, too

me using it

[south totem]

alr imma go try it out

😘

[remote crypt]

yoooo

double scythe strats coming back

[boreal path]

hell no

[remote crypt]

Maaan

why not

[boreal path]

scythe is for weak man ..

[remote crypt]

Naw naw

its two

and you have a seizure

[proven pivot]

fist fight are getting too ez

[remote crypt]

[soft osprey]

Funny, that normally happens to me like 50/50 whenever I switch hands with a polearm. Maybe I’m doing those steps without realizing

[blazing comet]

had to find this discord after killing a npc by hooking the back of its neck with an axe this game is amazing

[misty linden]

why does everyone spam in fist fight?

[boreal path]

you're fighting bots

that's why

[soft osprey]

Willie wants your head

[south totem]

👀

[remote crypt]

Big dick energy

[boreal path]

yes !

[misty linden]

oh

[south totem]

YEAAAAA

[misty linden]

im just bad

[glacial lava]

The swim move!!

[soft osprey]

The fists fights are harder than any other tier

Cause you can so easily get clocked

[south totem]

u can lower the damage in settings if ur struggling bit too much

but its not too long till ull get the hang of it

[boreal path]

they are random

there is next to no skill involved

[cerulean needle]

im ngl the fun i get from this game is gaining muscle memory from how weapon works and just being able to do predictable outcomes consistently, never had a game like that which was physics based. Love this shit

[glacial lava]

No way lol, I piece dudes up in fist fighting.

[soft osprey]

Yeah that’s why it’s harder, nothing you can really do about luck. I have like a 50/50 win rate in fist fights and way higher in any other tier

[boreal path]

yeah because you just fling your mouse around like everyone else

[soft osprey]

Now grab a real sword and get to work

[cerulean needle]

I had a phase after high school for like six months where i did kenjutsu and never used a sword ever since

[glacial lava]

Negative

[boreal path]

ok

[soft osprey]

Okay hawktuah

[cerulean needle]

I'm heavily into maintaining and repairing knives though

When I'm not working in the office

[soft osprey]

Why not WHILE working in the office?

[cerulean needle]

Because I work in the kind of place where if i lost my job I'd cry, i love my job

[soft osprey]

Just pull a Dwight and bring your knives in to protect everyone

[cerulean needle]

They already know I am a domestic T with the methods i used to use as a kid screwing with people

We laugh about it all the time

[soft osprey]

Kids are evil

I swear

[cerulean needle]

If someone really fucked with me I'd make frozen maple syrup cubes and toss them at someones house after making a few batches, they'd need an exterminator

[boreal path]

jesus christ

[soft osprey]

Fish oil ice cubes on their porch

[cerulean needle]

Hm

Maybe we are related

I'm trying to come up with a new trolling method involving serran wrap

[soft osprey]

Put it over their car exhaust tail pipe

[cerulean needle]

nah nah

[soft osprey]

lol no that might kill Someone

[cerulean needle]

Something slick and oil based, have it coated then wrap a car

[soft osprey]

Slick and oil based..how about napalm

That’s oil based right

[cerulean needle]

Yea we related

we on two watchlists now sick

since this is halfsword chat gunna post my obligatory clip

[bright frost]

How do I get the online version of this game? ive played the demo for an hour now and wanna play what I saw onlie

[glacial lava]

Just use elite head movement 🤷🏼‍♀️

[remote crypt]

thonks

[remote crypt]

You got so lucky he didn't sink your shoulder

[bright frost]

how do I get game

[cerulean needle]

gambeson in close quarters vs a shorter sword gives me confidence

out of thrust range

[remote crypt]

The amount of grazes with gambe that have killed me makes me so fucking paranoid

[soft osprey]

Fuck my bad service.

[soft osprey]

Also there is no online version, you’re fighting bots

[soft osprey]

Request access through the steam store page for half sword and wait up to 12 hours

[bright frost]

mkay

[soft osprey]

God I hate bad signal with discord

[agile birch]

HAWK TUAH SPIT ON THAT THING

[brisk osprey]

Do u think Willie would let me kiss him if I asked nicely

[supple cedar]

no

[tender quest]

https://tenor.com/view/lord-have-mercy-dave-chappelle-lawdamercy-gif-14108485

[bright frost]

the demo is like fun but I have zero control and it feels spammy

[tough yew]

its pretty much superior

[neon furnace]

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/iRjJ2q5ILCiCgdre4?invite=cr-MSxMUHgsMjc3OTM3OTM0LA did i cook

[cerulean needle]

On today's episode of Half-sword, we take to the streets and just start shanking people

[viscid citrus]

[soft osprey]

From dev today 10/11

[viscid citrus]

Ok thanks.

[cerulean needle]

Finally, onlywillies.

[prisma pollen]

meanwhile

[bright frost]

bruuuh I wanna paly the playtest so bad

the demo isnt allat

when

how long

[quartz bison]

my character after finishing the game

[jolly gorge]

Gore? 👉 👈

[dusky drift]

Willie...is actually Ivan?!?!

[covert edge]

No gore for you

[jolly gorge]

😭

I wait 3 mounth for gore. 😭

[covert edge]

Wait more

Sooneriest soonest soon

[jolly gorge]

😭

[trail pivot]

the more you wait the better itll be

so itll pay off

[sterile root]

HELLO THERE
I still have no access to the playtest
I already subscribed in steam

[bright frost]

same

[rotund kayak]

dang guys we were being lied to... willie was called ivan...

[idle crane]

Willie is ivan

I got to that part just now

Crazy times in the halfsword community

[remote crypt]

SO... we've been lied to?

time to catch the devs with a high cross (Sarcasm)

[sterile root]

I really can help because i am very critic and i even pratice medieval sports

[idle crane]

Soon mentioned

Gore toggles mentioned

[brittle robin]

Frankie said when videos release there was probably only one version of the game left... What happened

[tropic hawk]

when did you subscribe

it sometimes take a while

[sterile root]

A Few weeks ago

[tropic hawk]

strange, maybe contact a dev or mod or something, dont think it should take that long

[brazen cloak]

it wasnt even willie this whole time !1?

[idle crane]

You press this button?

[sterile root]

Who is the devs or mods?

[sterile root]

Yep

[misty linden]

Why does the demo have a lot of blood but not the playtest?

[lost dome]

blood in playtest when

[idle crane]

Search playtest in your library if it isnt there i will make it know to the CM

[remote crypt]

mfw

people only care about the blood

and not the mechanics

[lost dome]

because we installed the game looking for blood

[idle crane]

You cant speak for everyone

[misty linden]

yes he can

cuz he's right

[sterile root]

It is in my library, i click to play and nothing happens

[lost dome]

I don’t mean this for everybody, but a lot of people saw the game and said “ wow look at the Gore”

Not “ wow look at the mechanics”

some people might

[misty linden]

yea

[idle crane]

he is not. Plenty of people downloaded for the gameplay

[lost dome]

but not everybody

[idle crane]

id say its 50 50

[misty linden]

like 30%

[bright frost]

When do I get playtest

[slate perch]

Game ain't got no gas (blood) in it

[misty linden]

Every vid I look at is just people loving the gore

[bright frost]

gore is great but the gameplay to get the gor eis why its good

[slate perch]

Mechanics are amazing but the blood compliments everything so well to pull it all together I feel like

[remote crypt]

The gameplay is the meat

[misty linden]

thats fair

[remote crypt]

the blood is potatoes

without one the other doesnt work

[idle crane]

oh yeah lemme deal with this quickly i forgor

[hushed gale]

I cared about the mechanics more, I don’t even play the demo anymore because I enjoy the mechanics of the playtest a lot more than gore

[remote crypt]

^

[brittle robin]

FIRST OF ALL, FRANKIE AND IVAN DIDNT ANSWER MY QUESTION ABOUT WHY THEY ADDED NEGAN'S BAT AND ALSO THEY LIED ABOUT WILLIE HE HAS A REAL LIFE FACE MODEL GALAXY SHOWED HIM OFF

[idle crane]

They didnt lie

[brittle robin]

WILLIE FACE MODEL RIHTHERE WHY DID U LIE IVAN

[idle crane]

He still created the model

[misty linden]

he looks like him without hair

[brittle robin]

he said and i quote "we didnt use any direct modern reference"

[little verge]

This has happened to a few users this unfortunately an issue on steams end and can only be resolved by contacting Steam Support.

[bright frost]

I signed up for playtest at like 12, when do I getr it

[little verge]

That GHM with a willie filter.

[little verge]

Check your steam library now.

[tender quest]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-pokémon-cannon-cannonball-fired-from-gif-7993680603141299036

[red moth]

word association begins

[crude flower]

Speaking of which

We need a cannon in halfsword

[red moth]

wait is that a Pokémon getting shot out

[crude flower]

Cannon in halfsword before gore gets added?

[tender quest]

no idea

i just searched cannon in gifs

[crude flower]

Lol

[bright frost]

does the playtest have customization/maps like the itch.io demo?

[red moth]

ah yes, I do the same thing. see a word and just search it up

[tender quest]

https://tenor.com/view/oh-the-misery-sad-cat-gif-9833277429497503270

[bright frost]

why is there no gore in the gameplay, i love the gameplay but the gore makes the gameplay feel better as it has feedback

[idle crane]

You should upload to youtube

[tropic hawk]

because the gore is being worked on

[bright frost]

oh

my fault

[tender quest]

sheeeeeesh

[idle crane]

And yet no youtube

[true zealot]

theyre going in for it

[amber whale]

lets get a pov of their feet

[elfin frigate]

any of y'all do that thing where if you grab the enemy guy's pelvis in just the right way it bugs the physics out and you start spinning them around rapidly?

[true zealot]

yep

[amber whale]

yes

[delicate pelican]

helicockter

[amber whale]

i always do that when grappling

[elfin frigate]

i got it to launch me vertically halfway up the walls once and i've been trying to get it to happen again. can you get out of bounds doing it?

[amber whale]

sometimes you shoot just right and it looks like a realistic takedown

[amber whale]

yes

ive been launched right into the wall once

but ive seen videos of people being flung out of bounds the same way

[elfin frigate]

if i win without killing them i often try doing that to finish them off, and it occasionally backfires and knocks me unconscious which is equally funny

[open willow]

Thought the ping might be blood being added. Very sad

[amber whale]

i wonder if i can manage to glitch up on them wooden walkways up on the walls

[elfin frigate]

why is literaply every post in here complainig about lack of gore 💀

[true zealot]

gore wuen?!?!?

[compact jetty]

Blood thirsty

Also it’s like a main factor for a game focused on combat/critical hits

[jolly nexus]

wait willie is not willie??? 😭

it's actually ivan

or am I confusing things?

[open willow]

Idk the blood makes it more satisfying I still put like 10 hours in the game a week without blood

My most played game in years

[modern eagle]

Monthly check number 4 or 5
Is my damn .4 update out yet

I'm a dump truck

[dull iron]

[crude flower]

Me

I dump a lot

[dull iron]

you are the dump and a truck?

[crude flower]

I am both the truck and what i dump out

[dull iron]

you are a cuantic truck?

are you*

[crude flower]

The dump comes out, but does it ever really?

Almost as if it just forms back into the truck after a while

Born to eat forced to dump

[dull iron]

born or created?

you are a truck

[lean cove]

why do devs of this game look like they came out of half sword irl

[brisk scroll]

i just killed someone using a spinning attack

[little verge]

Becuase they did!

[brisk scroll]

it looked like something that comes out of an anime or something

[lean cove]

did they

die atleast once

[lean cove]

his hat

got me so hard

[little verge]

Did you scream "Tornado attack!' as you did it?

[brisk scroll]

haha

[lean cove]

most badass feeling

[little verge]

MMmmm Big swoord, big slpash.

[lean cove]

it was like

1.3x

size

instead of 1x

we need better movement with weapons

[little verge]

0.3 sized bucklers make fists that pop skulls.

[lean cove]

like it shouldnt glitch when u move too fast n stuff

[lean cove]

😭

[light pike]

i love half sword

[lean cove]

i love the back of polearm so much

its so fucking enjoyable man

best thing ever added to this weapon

so fast and violent

[little verge]

the timing of that blimey was peak.

[light pike]

ik LOL

[lean cove]

LMAO

[dull iron]

the demo can be configured? making more damage and other things

[light pike]

ya

[lean cove]

when did this game come out

[little verge]

Mods on Nexus.

[lean cove]

nexus?

[dull iron]

there are mods?

[lean cove]

NEXUS

[little verge]

It hasn't technically.

[dull iron]

nexus mod's

[lean cove]

ppg devs working on madness combat project now

its weird that

at one point

they all contacted eachother for once ig

[dull iron]

someone knows here how to make mods?

[little verge]

That is a pretty sweet team up!

[dull iron]

i just need to know whats the languaje

[little verge]

Only one guy.

[lean cove]

it will be their game i think

theyre getting help from orsoniks and stuff

[dull iron]

who

[lean cove]

they really are connected with eachother

feels funny as hell

[little verge]

MassClown

[lean cove]

u can

just download

his trainer downloader

and automatically set it up

thanks to him

hes too wise for this game

[dull iron]

i will try to talk to him i want to make mods

[little verge]

It aint easy, You will need to learn how to use UE4SS.

[weak roost]

Probably not the best game to learn on man. Something with a mod SDK might be better. And assets not locked down.

[dull iron]

unreal engine?

i know a little of UE5

[idle crane]

He isnt very active unfortunately

[dull iron]

i've send a message to him i will wait

[light pike]

why is he tweaking

[weak roost]

PTSD

[light pike]

bro saw me beat up the other dude and knew he couldnt fight back

[dull iron]

i'm in the half sword mod installer i have the trainer what i need to do to install a mod

?

[little verge]

Knowing UE will help allot bot UE4SS is scripting system.
https://github.com/UE4SS-RE/RE-UE4SS

[dull iron]

i have a mod .zip

[little verge]

The mod page has all the support you need. We don't cover support for modding.

[dull iron]

i retract you need the of C++

[dull iron]

ok

[light pike]

whats yalls favorite weapon in the playtest

me personally its the 2 handed axe

[dull iron]

2 handed sword or grip

[little verge]

Willies fists personnally. Second best is the pole mace.

[light pike]

ok ya fists are the best but technically it aint a weapon

[little verge]

MMA fighters hands are considred weapons in a afight.

[light pike]

ion think willie is a mma fighter

[dull iron]

the physics are a weapon

[light pike]

so true

i grab one guy wrong and fly into the stratosphere

[dull iron]

you can kill him on the thermosphere

[light pike]

throwing shields is the most fun thing ever

if u throw it right it stuns them perfectly

[dull iron]

i can't do it

[light pike]

horizontal throws are way easier to learn than vertical

[dull iron]

i'm not very presise

[crude flower]

I'd rather count elbows and knees as weapons

[dull iron]

please correct any grammatical error

[crude flower]

Precise* i think is what you're looking for

Close though

English is a silly language

[soft osprey]

Prisys*

[crude flower]

Oh my bad yeah

[trail pivot]

presajs you mean

[crude flower]

Easter egghead is right

[light pike]

i cant do armor ngl

i get bored too quick cuz ion die fast

[crude flower]

Just use a blunt weapon

Bonk

We need mauls and sledgehammers in halfsword frfr

[light pike]

bring the scythe to the playtest frfr

[crude flower]

Facts

[dull iron]

sorry but what is frfr?

[crude flower]

For real for real

[dull iron]

aaaa

thanks

[crude flower]

If you ever got a question don't be afraid to ask

We're all helpful fellas (hopefully)

[dull iron]

there's no way i'm lauthing because i almost put butt and not but

[crude flower]

Lol

[jolly nexus]

It's confirmed that willie is a fisherman so I did this lol

[dull iron]

leage of legends?

[light pike]

they should add a fishing rod to half sword

[crude flower]

Laugh out loud

[dull iron]

and lmao?

[crude flower]

Laughing my ass off

[dull iron]

your ass is laughing?

[crude flower]

I laughed so hard it fell off

[dull iron]

[dull iron]

[crude flower]

If my ass fell off i'd probably be scared enough to shit myself yeah

I studied the grapple before weapons

[sage heart]

WHEN IS HS GORE I BEEN WAITING 2 MONTHHSSS

[elfin frigate]

devs canceled gore because people keep asking

they said the more you ask the longer u gotta wait

[bright frost]

How is the gore update?

[light pike]

just play the demo if u want gore

[bright frost]

Gimme blood

Gimme limbs

It’s why the gameplay feels good, it makes it fluid

[elfin frigate]

fluid

like blood i see what u did there

[prisma saffron]

My favorite comment

[bright frost]

They shud

[light igloo]

honestly they should

[astral pollen]

Every time I sheathe a specific long sword in demo, unsheathing it causes me to fly haphazardly through the air until dead. 😂

[elfin frigate]

working as intended

[slim portal]

man fuck your goedendag.

[elfin frigate]

i googled goedendang and none of the pics look like that

but i hate that fuckin weapon lol

[slim portal]

its a pique a picot

[jolly gorge]

I’m trying to get this fucking thing in there. Most useless rondel ever

They should make it so the rondel automatically stabs into the joints

[elfin frigate]

isnt that what pikachu says

[slim portal]

no

[jolly gorge]

They don’t have spikes

Just one spike

It was used by the Flemish

Goedendag means “good evening in German”

The Flemishes town was taken over by the French so they would go around town and say Goedendag to the townsfolk, they responded with a French accent they would wack em with the club

[elfin frigate]

is your pfp doug walker made of cheese?

nooooo bro almost escaped 😭

the smallest taste of freedom

[dense island]

x3

[prisma saffron]

its a dutch name apparently. but even me being flemish i dont really recognize it

[lyric bronze]

The achievement for beating the first boss (demo) should be “Don’t fear the reaper.”

[slim portal]

that sound kind of lame

you think anyone with a scythe is the reaper?

you'd think he'd be more passive about his job

[lyric bronze]

Isn’t it called reaper in the game files

[slim portal]

guh?

[lyric bronze]

If you use a spawn menu it’s called boss reaper

[elfin frigate]

theres more than one boss???

[rich acorn]

Every stage ends in a boss, after the reaper you have one man with a rapier and two men in Gambesons with axes

[novel herald]

Game crashes. Am I the only one?

[vernal pewter]

verify file integrity or sum idk

[soft osprey]

Playtest or demo?

current playtest.

LowLevelFatalError [File:D:\build++UE5\Sync\Engine\Source\Runtime\PakFile\Private\IPlatformFilePak.cpp] [Line: 4758]
Retry was NOT sucessful.

unreal engine logo pops up then this error

weird

[slim portal]

seems to be a platform asset that is malfunctioning

verify file integrity

or restart your computer

if this does not work

it might be your computer

[novel herald]

just did, says everything is valid. yea might be my pc idk

[slim portal]

what ram do you currently have?

oh wait

its actually code

[novel herald]

32 gigs

game worked before, just today it didnt

[slim portal]

could you open the game again?

[novel herald]

nope

[slim portal]

what gpu?

and cpu?

[novel herald]

rtx 4070

[slim portal]

cpu?

[novel herald]

13th gen intel i5- 13600kf

[slim portal]

pretty up to date

should be working alright

[novel herald]

have a feeling somethings up with the games code

[slim portal]

uninstall the game and download it again and see if it works

[novel herald]

but for everyone it works

[slim portal]

yeah, it is

the .cpp file IS a code file

[novel herald]

banger. redownloaded and it works

[slim portal]

alright so the error probably caused a mayor brain fart and it caused the save files to make the error happen again and again from what i think

post it on #1262488181035630634 or #1047240101152960525

perfect

[bright frost]

Will the games movement and combat ever been made a bit more fluid, it’s super fun but a tad spammy

[remote crypt]

You can make it less spammy

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1263248218297339915/1294483045889343568/definitely_died_after.mp4?ex=670b2cc8&is=6709db48&hm=c6db9c743e1ab12cbb14a8de6f979017d3743d82628c30fbbd97bd25c9cee4d1& case in point

[bright frost]

What am i doing wrong

The camera is super stiff and I always have to stop holding left click to move

[remote crypt]

That's weird

[bright frost]

What’s the Strat in general

[remote crypt]

There isn't really a strat

more getting your own stype

finding your weapon of choice

and getting good w/ it

[bright frost]

I just play the demo instead cuz without gore the hits feels weak, I also feel like the weapon movement is unresponsive when I swing, like I wanna parry but it feels random and I can’t rly focus the location

[elfin frigate]

tbh i don't get how anyone is precise with stabs or swings etc. like i can parry pretty well and land hits in the general area i intend to but i agree it honestly feels a bit random. i can do the exact same mouse motion 10 times and get 10 wildly different arm motions in game

[bright frost]

Exactly

[remote crypt]

It has a lot to do with your willie's balance as well

[bright frost]

Also thrusting feels suuuper off

[remote crypt]

do you double click?

[bright frost]

Pause?

[bright frost]

Yeah

[remote crypt]

The character is named Willie

[bright frost]

Oh

[remote crypt]

by the community

[remote crypt]

try using ALT and moving mouse for stabs

they're difficult in general

[bright frost]

I just feel like it’s limited range of motion

[elfin frigate]

i've found i have to be looking down and to the right when i double click for my stab to go forwards. not sure if thats intended or a common issue though

[bright frost]

I wud like to feel like I can move the sword around where I want, I get its wonky physics but the sword motion is also affected making the entire process feel spammy with how little control there is

[bright frost]

I think I get that

[remote crypt]

Also

don't sweep the fuck out of your mouse

[weak roost]

You have tons of control, I promise.

[remote crypt]

^^^^^^^^

[bright frost]

Bro how

[remote crypt]

Ovrdth actually has a dope youtube series

[elfin frigate]

once i figured that out i found i can end most fights instantly lmao

[remote crypt]

that will teach you

[bright frost]

Wah

[remote crypt]

Its a keybind

[bright frost]

Ik

I meant like I tried that once and just gave up

Maybe I’ll try again

[remote crypt]

It works 10x better than double click

[bright frost]

Is there any like general info to make fighting feel more precise

[elfin frigate]

actually have you tried adjusting mouse sensitivity? i think it helps with small movements making huge changes to character movement

[bright frost]

I feel like parries involve random seintd

[bright frost]

Not rly

I’ll try

Higher or lower?

[elfin frigate]

lower probably

[bright frost]

Mkay

Also, I’m so sorry, but like when is gore update 👉👈

[remote crypt]

It's not too terribly random

[remote crypt]

When it's ready

[bright frost]

True

[elfin frigate]

tbh i think the thing i have the most trouble with is hitting enemies that are on the ground lol

[bright frost]

Is there a roadmap, I’m curious if online is ever planned or campaign

[bright frost]

YES

Hits feel so weak even thot they shud be easiest to wind up

And they always miss

[remote crypt]

Genuinely

look at OVRDTH's tutorials

you will learn

[bright frost]

Oh that’s the bro from the chat

Mkay I’ll watch like in 1 min

[elfin frigate]

ill check em out later

[bright frost]

Are there mods?

[frigid depot]

add blood to the playtest developers

[jolly gorge]

The play test isn’t

[bright frost]

Wdym

[jolly gorge]

How did you get it where you’re fighting an armored dude with no armor

[bright frost]

Mod

[jolly gorge]

Ah

[bright frost]

I think

[jolly gorge]

Is there a multiplayer mod yet

[bright frost]

not that I saw on nexus

[jolly gorge]

Dang

[bright frost]

Other than one thing

A split screen one

With remote play

[jolly gorge]

Yeah that’s to annoying

[bright frost]

Ye

[jolly gorge]

I saw them doing it and it took them half an hour just to get it working

[bright frost]

Oh damn

That’s annoying

[jolly gorge]

The only thing I don’t like about halfsword play test is that it’s annoying to finish people off when they’re on the ground

Unless you have a blunt weapon

[warm thistle]

I prefer the demo over the playtest its just more fun to me

[jolly gorge]

Freak

[warm thistle]

[remote crypt]

ye its a mod

[cerulean needle]

I think I just developed my favorite go to move

Finessed strikes into impale

Weapon isolation, takedown, and execution

[worn heron]

I'm starting to think they might not have heard of Halfsword.

[remote crypt]

They really need to

is that dark and darker or dungeonborne?

can't tell I barely play dungeonborne

[worn heron]

dark and darker, the superior one

[remote crypt]

Ah fair

I heard its subscription based

and chose to forgo that

[worn heron]

it's not at all lol

[remote crypt]

Ive been lied to

[worn heron]

it's a free to play model with a paid upgrade

[worn heron]

[remote crypt]

Ah

I don't like paid upgrades

is it as bad as tarkov?

[worn heron]

try out the free version! It's worth a shot

[worn heron]

Nowhere near that

[remote crypt]

[worn heron]

Paying gives you access to multiple character slots, and a shared stash between them, as well as test access to their experimental gameplay

[remote crypt]

I see

[worn heron]

so it's not like you pay and get an edge over others, inherently. The main bonus is being able to create multiple characters and share loot between em

[remote crypt]

I see

that's better than I heard

[worn heron]

yee it's certainly better than some p2w models I've seen

I've played dark and darker since early playtesting, it was the reason I wanted to get a PC, I'm glad it's still in a playable state. It's had some rough patches for sure, but it's In a good spot I'd say

[blissful bluff]

don't mind me asking but when are they gonna dd blood and gore to the playtest

[worn heron]

I watched a few tutorial videos and suddenly I went from preferring long heavy polearms and swinging wildly to buckler dagger stabbing for counters.

Stabbing successfully feels phenomenal.

[wheat leaf]

But honestly that makes it more realistic in truth

[lethal mauve]

I notice this too

[supple cedar]

holy shit interesting things happening next week

YEHESSSS

[west plover]

Yeah no I feel like it's usually the weapon

finally people wont ask for blood no more

I think it would be pretty cool if Willie's face could randomly vary

[west plover]

I can tell you exactly what's next week. My psych paper is due next week

ALSO

That's when I'll fuckin do it

[wooden socket]

Like your nose size could be bigger, you could have more of a beard, different eyes, etc

[opal sundial]

The mycelium has no need for Willie’s facial expressions, it senses his enemies movement

[copper pagoda]

also scars would be cool

[opal sundial]

fuck that was incoherent

im too tired for the mycelium trope

They’ll probably add it sometime in the future

[wooden socket]

Oh and yeah there should be like a 0.0000001% chance for Willie to be a fungus

[west plover]

Hell yeah

[opal sundial]

Willie is a fungus

It’s widely agreed

[copper pagoda]

or that you could customize your willie

[supple cedar]

i think its a glitch

[copper pagoda]

how do you get out dark place???????????????

is that a glitch too

[opal sundial]

proceeds to get promptly smited by the mods

[supple cedar]

i dont think the guy who once pinged franky and said that actually got banned

[opal sundial]

Others have done it too and have mostly gotten a stern talking to (which still falls under the category of getting smited)

[supple cedar]

buckler and sword anyone?

its a good combo

[quartz bison]

is a score of 8685 good ?

[torn flare]

is the tokyo game show over

[fast bramble]

I appreciate you using first person perspective

We need more first person videos

[lament wraith]

first person is a ton of fun because it helps me focus on the enemy

[fast bramble]

Yeah

To me it feels like a bootleg VR without needing all the fancy VR equipment

[lament wraith]

plus, it just feels better to crack a guys skull open and see it with my own eyes

[fast bramble]

Yeah

It also makes some of the silly motions your character can make less visible/jarring lol

[neon furnace]

once the game comes out do i keep the playtest

[lunar sky]

pre sure

[tribal ruin]

can someone tell me why willie has 3 layers of teeth

[supple cedar]

because he is willie

[raw arch]

i have an estimate that 1 month and a half after half sword drops more people will be online on it than sea of theives

cuz sea of theives went down

[lunar sky]

dude what

[wooden socket]

I have a prediction

Wednesday or thursday

[floral barn]

when is blood finally coming to the playtest

[soft osprey]

Nobody knows for sure but a dev said SOMETHING will be coming in a week. Idk if it’s just gonna be some news or an actual update

[dense brook]

Play test blood when?

Anyone? Any info? Anything?

I know it was supposed to be added back after that global gaming presentation or smth

[tough yew]

One of the fellas from game seer [the publisher] hinted at something “interesting happening next week” and also posted a guy with ketchup on his hands soo stay tuned for next week.

[dense brook]

Didnt see that, but that is indeed amazing news, thanks lots Mate.

[tribal prairie]

[tough yew]

No problem fella.

[elfin frigate]

its not a great weapon but i think the tip is bugged or something because no other weapon i've seen besides maybe the spiked club will stick to people with almost 0 force like that. if you're going to stab with anything else you at least have to be moving a little.

[inland bobcat]

How long u wait to get playtest?
