[amber whale]

[weak roost]

It’s not meant for playing.

[thin elbow]

RTX 3060

[amber whale]

damn

cinematic must be very intense

im not even able to run medium

i remember i tried turning it on for a photo and the game crashed

[weak roost]

Yes, it’s not meant for playing and is going to be removed

[amber whale]

im curious to see what fps ill get when i get my new pc

the gpu will be rtx 4070

[trail pivot]

same as mine then, and from experience i can say its a perfect gpu

[amber whale]

yea ive seen a few benchmarks of it

it looks amazing

ive been intel uhd user for a while

[supple cedar]

yo bro why does your mod not allow me to save loadouts

[amber whale]

the 10fps finally made me cave in and buy a powerful pc

[weak roost]

Read the readme, the installer or the description on nexus carefully

[thin elbow]

hARD

What CPU

[supple cedar]

it tells me permission not granted

that isnt in the description

[cerulean needle]

skill issue

[weak roost]

🤦‍♂️ Run it as an admin

[supple cedar]

bruh

[weak roost]

You’re telling me

[cerulean needle]

Flipped like a pancake with spear slaps

[inland bobcat]

MUHAHAHA

[astral pollen]

Oh I didn't realize cinematic wasn't for playing.

[autumn sequoia]

[amber whale]

ryzen 5 5500

sorry for late response

[empty path]

is there gore yet

[amber whale]

no but theres been hints it might be next week

[thin elbow]

No problemo

I don't know much about computers just interested

[wooden socket]

a TRULY brave stand

[true zealot]

Caught

[wooden socket]

the only reason unarmed brave stand is even remotely difficult is because your guy cant throw more than 2 half assed punches without being completely out of stamina

[wooden socket]

at least with t8 i havent tried t7

[vale knoll]

can i have the link to the itch io version of th game

[sudden wedge]

HIM

[wooden socket]

ok with t7 you can throw more punches but you get 1tapped the moment a weapon is even remotely close to you

[wooden socket]

what 1 singular tap from ai willie does in fist play (your full force full bodyweight-behind-it haymaker barely tickles him)

[ripe meteor]

my willie likes to watch

[wooden socket]

like genuinely i punch him full force and he gets rocked really hard and all that but then 2 secs later hes perfectly fine and he does 1 tiny ass hook and it literally KILLS me even though it had like a quarter of the force behind it

[lilac geyser]

Gor is coming.

[wooden socket]

and my willie REFUSES to punch upwards at his face half the time

like all my punches are bodyshots even though im looking up and have my hands up

[slim portal]

parry

[weak roost]

But 0 advantage 😦

[slim portal]

i spinned to move the spear and then hit him with the spin to kill him

[lament wraith]

did i just call in an airstrike?

[cerulean needle]

Many such cases of force users in this community glad to see another one

[lament wraith]

gadzooks ive just smited this man down

[slim portal]

ah yes, the dust/death blow

[lament wraith]

POCKET SAND!

[lament wraith]

halfswording a polearm is one of the most broken things in the game, i love it

[slim portal]

what do yall call this move

[tender quest]

triple pommel strike

[slim portal]

ZAMN!!
{

[tender quest]

there we go double upward strike successful

So i have in my moves list, quick strike https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1043854764095582260/1267846899042357365/VersionTest54_2024-07-30_15-10-00_-_Trim.mp4?ex=670bd4f0&is=670a8370&hm=8ea094de7173e96a2c9d8d7dbc788aa50b859456227c51b2f77d7a3f90a1e9d0&

and now double upward strike

[remote crypt]

That double blunt was diabolical

[tender quest]

i like to link this one when people complain that weapons dont hit hard enough

[remote crypt]

Yeah it helps gauntlet + handle + crossguard action

three points of contact

OSHA Compliant

[tender quest]

keepin it safe

[remote crypt]

absolutely

[outer oriole]

How do y’all have so much control? Everything just flails around for me

[tiny torrent]

throw it around gently

[keen holly]

when blood is come back?

[tiny torrent]

or your mouse rather

[outer oriole]

Turn the sensitivity down! Got it

[tiny torrent]

never

[keen holly]

nice

[tiny torrent]

that can work 🙂 but if you try to slow down the movement or path of your trajectory, you'll find a way to manage it on your own

[outer oriole]

Oh! I’ll try that

Upgrading my Pc and building my wife’s so it’ll be a bit

[tiny torrent]

have fun!!

[outer oriole]

Imma get her into Half Sword too

[tiny torrent]

i got my girlfriend into it it

she had a blast

[outer oriole]

Haha

Nice

[remote crypt]

Sens down and precise mouse movements

this has actually helped my accuracy on games like helldivers

a LOT

[tender quest]

imagine if you were swinging a heavy pole around irl, you wouldnt be able to wildly flail it, so i apply the same logic in the game using sweeping arcs and not switching directions abruptly

[outer oriole]

Fair

[remote crypt]

I saw that tip get caught in dirt you

that's not very osha compliant

[tender quest]

no safety equipment?

[remote crypt]

bros playing wiggle with the sword

wiggle wobble wiggle wobble

[elfin frigate]

yall notice sometimes you can get some jank kills with longswords if you swing wide with lift click and then back the other way with right click? sorry idk the terminology but going from the 2 hand grip to the 1 hand on the blade grip seems to force weapons through stuff sometimes. i've definitely clipped directly through shields a couple times

[remote crypt]

Yeah if you can unseat the blade hand

you get NASTY throw stabs

'throw'

[elfin frigate]

lol whats a throw stab

[remote crypt]

when you yeet the blade out

without throwing it

[elfin frigate]

ohh yeah ive definitely done that a few times lol

[remote crypt]

its janky to get going but when it hits

fuck man

[elfin frigate]

wish i had a clip of it but i somehow got the blade behind them and pulled it through to the front. if the gore effects were in the game rn it probably would have cut him in half tbh

with the blade grip i mean

[remote crypt]

Oh so

when you move to half sword

your arm sometimes gets FORCED attached

and that happens

[chrome gust]

will the full game be multiplayer?

[elfin frigate]

seems abusable tbh. if they add multiplayer i worry thats the kind of thing people will try to cheese with

[remote crypt]

I doubt multiplayer will be added

they gotta finish the actual game first

[chrome gust]

like i mean after that

once everything is polished and stuff

[remote crypt]

I would never be able to pull this

because the first time someone saw me unarmored?

they'd charge swinging like a fkn bingus

[dawn sparrow]

well played

[remote crypt]

The amount of people going "wHeN gOrE" instead of caring abt the mechanics would mean that we'd need specific servers for those that cared

[remote crypt]

❤️

I got lucky he went with his first swing there

[dawn sparrow]

sometimes a bit of luck is all you need!

[remote crypt]

Oh 100%

[chrome gust]

real lol

[remote crypt]

its really where they swing first and how bad the shoulder drops with shields

[remote crypt]

It kinda bothers me

it's such a nuanced game

[elfin frigate]

ok but when gore? 😭😭😭

[remote crypt]

and people just care about pretty blood

[elfin frigate]

/j

[remote crypt]

I am going to put your head on a pike /s ❤️

[remote crypt]

[chrome gust]

excactly sure the gore was a selling point for some people but there are so many things that go into a game

[remote crypt]

black willie confirmed

[remote crypt]

Honestly

This game has actually helped me fight better when I go to larp

because I see the motions

and yes

I can't headshot cuz SaFeTy

but fuck

The amount of shit I learn

[dawn sparrow]

some people will care only about gore, some will love the mechanics, some will play because they love realistic armors and weapons in game, some people will play for any other reasons

[dawn sparrow]

that's really nice!

[elfin frigate]

tbh i kinda just love the whole concept. there isnt really one aspect of the game that draws me in, its the whole direction theyre going with it

[remote crypt]

I commissioned some actual blade lookin' swords to fight with as well due to this game lol

used to use those bat boffers

and now its like, I can sink so much shit just learning from here

[dawn sparrow]

I remember when I discovered half sword ages ago, the itch.io version and main factor that got me was the free motion swings. I played Die by the sword (pretty sure lots of community wasn't even born then) and was craving for a game like this for ages. There were a games that had some cool mechanics, Mount&Blade for example but it was not exactly this

[remote crypt]

Florentine to Longsword isn't 100% compatible but the concepts

[remote crypt]

Mount & blade and chiv were my gotos before this

now I just play this on my steam deck at work, at home while playing other games

I deadass run helldivers and this game at the same time

and a lull in the mission = a match in Half Sword

[tough yew]

the killer

[jolly gorge]

mane I just play for fun

[dawn sparrow]

we all got reasons why we love the game! I love #photography📷 too!

[jolly gorge]

I haven’t played in a while tho

[chrome gust]

one thing i dont love is the music when you first open the game it breaks my eardrums 😭

[abstract meadow]

i play for sword

[chrome gust]

what do yall use to clip?

[remote crypt]

shadowplay

[remote crypt]

good shit

[abstract meadow]

its not ideal but i use clipchamp

[chrome gust]

new fav character btw

[tough yew]

shadow play used to be my go to, but now its just not working for me properly for some reason.

[remote crypt]

pole is kinda fun

[remote crypt]

I had to task manager it and restart it from geforce experience every time I run halfsword

[remote crypt]

good fkn shots dude

the last dude in this was fucking wild

[dawn sparrow]

simple geforce experience capture

[lean elbow]

[bleak halo]

yo guys

[tough yew]

thanks fella, and thanks for telling me a potential solution for geforce.

[dawn sparrow]

hello

[remote crypt]

npnp, its been a pain in my ass for a bit with any game

think its new windows updates

[bleak halo]

is parts of the game like this in the demo or playtest?

[remote crypt]

and if you didn't upgrade to w11 might also be a part of it (fuck windows 11)

[calm ivy]

That reminds me of THIS interaction I had lol:

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/iPnrenGtkwIU3ud9I?invite=cr-MSw0UnUsMjY1MzE2ODc2LA

[calm ivy]

He was DETERMINED lol

[remote crypt]

Honestly had me fucked up

bro was wearing his PT belt

[remote crypt]

the stab to takedown on the farmer in the beginning makes me want to do that more tho

I got his head, then went to half sword and pushed him down

[calm ivy]

That's really one of my favorite moves! It almost feels like you're grappling, or doing some kinda medieval jiu jitsu lol

[remote crypt]

100% and it stops them from falling on you

[calm ivy]

Yeaa! Just complete control!

[remote crypt]

Esp naked its the biggest deal

[calm ivy]

Case in point!

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/iNKI0ObVv8kEOxHXF?invite=cr-MSxCazYsMjY1MzE2ODc2LA

[remote crypt]

no balls you wont 1st person it

[calm ivy]

Rightt! I want some naked axe lol

[remote crypt]

[abstract meadow]

what yall prefer long sword or bastard sword

[calm ivy]

lol I just don't.. like first person, when using a helm lol
Unless I try naked.. but I'd prolly die

[calm ivy]

I feel like, between the two, I'd prefer longsword; just 'cause of more reach

[abstract meadow]

i like the pointy long swords

[calm ivy]

Samee lol

I've had bastard swords save me in a pinch, if I lose my main weapon, though

[remote crypt]

pointy is good

@calm ivy my new record for brave stand clear speed

[calm ivy]

Niceee, dude!!!

[remote crypt]

So many lucky breaks

but I'm glad that one shield dude dropped his shoulder

[calm ivy]

Yeaah, shields can be hard to get around!

[remote crypt]

oh 100%

[vague rose]

am I the first to discover this? probobly not?

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/iRHGiJLBordlfNtPQ?invite=cr-MSw2TWgsODY4MjY1MzIs

[bleak halo]

ig the fences have very accurate hitboxes

[remote crypt]

naw theres a zone

[bleak halo]

btw how do u get access to the duels and shit other than the dark open world

[calm ivy]

There's the flying glitch people use sometimes, if you have a secondary..
you just holster your weapon, and it'll you fly if you do it just right

[vague rose]

You have to sign up for the playtest, not the demo

[bleak halo]

ye ive done that

jus waiting

[calm ivy]

THAT'S the one.. I've been trying to comb over the discord, to find a clip of it lol

[trail pivot]

i have a lot

[vague rose]

damn haven't heard of this

[calm ivy]

YOUR method is the LEAST painful one, tho lol

but, it'd be hard to get to the top level without flying lol

[calm ivy]

https://tenor.com/view/goal-soccer-ronaldo-portugal-football-gif-4886320

lolol

[vague rose]

ahaha so true

yeah I didn't know that was a thing

cool tho

the flying bug

[calm ivy]

There was a whole chat somewhere, that was dedicated to exploring ALL of the map...

[calm ivy]

That BACK! lol

[trail pivot]

is this a mandela effect or is something actually different

[restive garnet]

whats so dif?

i am just started playing the demo after a long time

barly play it

looks nice

[trail pivot]

the classic demo

[tough yew]

now lets compare THAT to the dev build stuff

looks like child play

[trail pivot]

i remember quitting half sword for months only to find out it had a big glow up with that playtest

[restive garnet]

hehehe I cant wait for someone to make a demo gore vs 2.0 gore blood vid

[restive garnet]

its only the beginning

playtest is like 5%

[trail pivot]

YEAH THATS THE SHOCKER

[raw harness]

Can someone tell me why it is showing this now

[lament wraith]

the playtest being the quality that it is, i start to wonder just how amazing the full game is gonna be

[trail pivot]

i mean, i have 60+ hours on a game thats 5% done, i bought games for 50 dollars that i played for around 20 and i gave up

[lament wraith]

i think you dont have enough space on your computer

[raw harness]

oh ok

[tough yew]

are you running the game on dx12?

[restive garnet]

lemme check'

[tough yew]

talkin to the other fella

[restive garnet]

yup

[restive garnet]

oh oops

[trail pivot]

did it ALWAYS already look this good even in the demo??

i never had close up shots for blood and gore

since i didnt use photo mode

[restive garnet]

dayum

[tough yew]

https://tenor.com/view/critical-role-crit-role-arsequeef-sam-riegel-gif-12468966

[restive garnet]

yeah i really did give the demo much play time

[vague rose]

where is bros head 😭

[raw harness]

Just fixed it ty

[vague rose]

actually a cool strat

[calm ivy]

Same, I literally played almost every day lol

[restive garnet]

here

[trail pivot]

reassemble him

and apologize

[restive garnet]

yes

[restive garnet]

yeah I can totally see how much has been improved

[restive garnet]

[remote crypt]

I've managed the most unorthodox disarm I've ever managed

[restive garnet]

the demo blood has decals, and you can only spawn so much of it before performance hits. you cant paint the whole map with it. With the 2.0 blood system you can, its not decals. you can spawn as much if not infinite, paint the map as much as you want. lighter and more dynamic then decals. Blood decals are sooo old tech.

[vague rose]

ahaha I love it

[remote crypt]

my brain in this game

[molten galleon]

I can't with the music 😭

[remote crypt]

homie its bardcore

one letter off hardcore

my dumbass forgot to bring up my dagger to guard

[sage stirrup]

Enemies fly if you touch their ass

[chrome dawn]

i have a question guys

[ripe meteor]

how about gibs n stuff? how performance intensive would that be

[chrome dawn]

when will be new playtest

[restive garnet]

I cant say anything abt that just yet. only blood.

I cant say anything abt gore just yet.

[chrome dawn]

how long will i wait for new playtest?

[ripe meteor]

wdym

[ripe meteor]

i will wait pateintly

[restive garnet]

monday devs are working again. weekend they are free

[chrome dawn]

i only have demo rn

[restive garnet]

[ripe meteor]

and youve requesed the playtest?

[restive garnet]

[chrome dawn]

yes

[restive garnet]

[chrome dawn]

so in monday i will get it

[restive garnet]

[restive garnet]

for a begin

[blazing pagoda]

vertex painting?

[restive garnet]

wdym

[blazing pagoda]

as in

do y'all use vertex painting instead of decals

[restive garnet]

nopes. vertex painting was in the demo for the blood pools

not in 2.0

[blazing pagoda]

ohh so that's how it blended with the stone so nicely

[restive garnet]

we got rid of it

[near lichen]

Frankie enjoying his NY trip

Rightfully so though

[restive garnet]

idk

[ripe meteor]

very interested in how many head destruction variants there'll be

[restive garnet]

yes

[tough yew]

Pretty good stuff.

[tough yew]

Interesting

[remote crypt]

Any uh... critiques

and that's fine on its own

they should give us the ability to use the force if we get enough kills ngl

[whole parrot]

How complete do you think the blood engine is?

[restive garnet]

yes

[whole parrot]

That's something i like to hear

[wooden socket]

the demo gore

is gonna get such a glow up

this is already pretty brutal but this will look like a minor scratch compared to the new engine

[loud river]

lol, lmao even

[lethal mauve]

Now the demo seems to me to be the last century

Playtest - revolution

Playtest with gore - revolution with sword

[lethal mauve]

Absolutely

[tough yew]

Haven’t ya seen what he said?

somethins interesting is happening somewhere around next week, and it’ll involve blood.

things half sword has taught me

1. beat your willie every day
2. let reason rule where in rage might rein
3. cut your sword in half
4. fungus

are you using chaos physics yet for this or not yet?

[remote crypt]

not particularly a problem more of a common sense thing. Chat's not moving quite quickly. However, yeah. Use his description on discord for the mod link - he's put it there.

[sinful sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/nerd-emoji-nerd-meme-radar-gif-26497624

[restive garnet]

No it's expensive when spawning too many decal actors

[restive garnet]

Chaos physics? For?

[remote crypt]

I'd assume lots of CPU load?

[restive garnet]

Yeah

But mostly on gpu

[upbeat orchid]

halfsword

[remote crypt]

Thankful I have a good GPU then

[restive garnet]

It isn't abt that

Even my gpu gets low fps with decals method, for spawning load of it in game world

[remote crypt]

what do you define as low

[restive garnet]

10 to 25 fps

[remote crypt]

oh fuck

I guess I just have a good pair then

[opal sundial]

With what gpu?

[restive garnet]

You havent played the dev version

[restive garnet]

3080 ti

[remote crypt]

No I have not, sadly

[restive garnet]

That's when using 2k decals alot of them

That's why, the new system 2.0 blood is gonna take blood to the next lvl.

Spawning few decals for blood, like the demo is fine

[near lichen]

the gore? pierrot said Epic Games are helping u guys out with utilizing UE5's full potential

[restive garnet]

But if you wanna paint the whole map, with blood accurate stuff, decals won't help

[restive garnet]

Oh might be

[near lichen]

Exciting!

never seen chaos physics being used for gore, usually just destructive environments

[restive garnet]

True

We shall see what it will do

[near lichen]

you guys will change gore forever in games

[opal sundial]

So gore 2.0 will have compound fractures, better blood (duh), skin flaps, and other stuff, right?

[remote crypt]

I don't think they're gonna promise anything rn

[restive garnet]

Can't say

[near lichen]

no need to promise, in galaxy we trust

[remote crypt]

galaxy is putting in WORK tho ye

[restive garnet]

2.0 will be the basis of new blood and gore. Moving forward

[restive garnet]

Let's hope so! 🤞🏻

Hopefully more devs will follow too. But we doubt it

[near lichen]

we'll be here to witness it hehe

[restive garnet]

Heck yee

[near lichen]

when they see a small group of indie devs push the boundaries of physics and gore that should inspire anyone

then again we never know lol

[restive garnet]

True true

[opal sundial]

Is it gonna be like Dead Island’s F.L.E.S.H system?

[restive garnet]

one of our milestone is, to beat Dead island 2 gore

[near lichen]

you guys have the tools and skills just need time to cook

[restive garnet]

hopefully in the future it will be something better then that. no promises

[idle crane]

Well you already beat the gameplay

[vague rose]

what the fuuuuck

[opal sundial]

[restive garnet]

😂

[near lichen]

alr beat most physics in games lol

managed to put themselves at par w rdr 2 in terms of physics

[idle crane]

Dude dead island 2 was incredibly disappointing

[near lichen]

a small indie team being at par with one of the best AAA companies out there, inspiring

[restive garnet]

someone needs to made a euphoria gta 4/rdr1 ragdoll vs Half Sword ragdoll. once the game is at v1

[near lichen]

one day hopefully we see half sword games at gdc i would listen to that talk for hours

[restive garnet]

without it costing over 100.000 usd to hire a team (natural motion)

[near lichen]

still waiting for the devlog on how franky managed to self balance ragdolls lol

[idle crane]

gdc?

[restive garnet]

fair lol

[near lichen]

game developers conference

all the revolutionary devs share their secrets there

[idle crane]

i thought it would be something like but i wanted to make sure

[waxen slate]

[near lichen]

not really secrets but what makes their game unique etc

[waxen slate]

nvm

[near lichen]

from what i know, the lead dev of naturalmotion now works for epic games and they follow half sword, so you def got his attention

[restive garnet]

where do you get that info from

It's called bloody bastards

[near lichen]

i believe he made the physics control plugin iirc, which is how franky uses the plugin to balance the active ragdolls

im so sorry about that

[lavish storm]

[ripe meteor]

i think 25 is fair, but it depends on the content

if we're looking at just the abyss combined with the playtest, and thats it? ehhhh, im a bit hesitant

[remote crypt]

I'm not a dev

naw

[zenith prism]

this game is fire

just hit 110 hours

I disagree I can play for hours

idk why

it feels awful to play sometimes, but other times its just perfect

istg its like a random number generator that decides if the combat feels good

[serene wigeon]

same for me

loving it so far

[elfin frigate]

honestly i'd pay $10 just for the playtest if they added some QOL stuff like mods seem to do

[restive garnet]

playtest is free, Early Access not

We are here to make games, and setup a future for Half Sword Games.

[remote crypt]

very late to that party but good job

[trail pivot]

there will be something happening next week

all we know is that its supposed to make the discord explode

so who knows

[bright frost]

hype

[wheat leaf]

100 percent 😂 barely even a good throw i just thought it was funny

spawned in with no weapons a buncha times in a row so just made the best of it and tried to see how far id get

[remote crypt]

[alpine verge]

When will blood be implemented into the game?

[bright frost]

in the demo whats the difference in left click right click and both

[wheat leaf]

one controls left hand, one controls right hand, and one combines both

[bright frost]

Whats its purpose in combat? Id imagine you would always use both (holdboth) cuz its a sword?

im taking about 2 handed sword btw

[remote crypt]

Using both would have you in half sword

left click is usual

right click is half sword

[wheat leaf]

well, using a 2 handed sword with only the left hand prevents 2 handing if thats what your asking

[remote crypt]

holding just puts you in half sword until you let go of right click

[wheat leaf]

so anytime you have a 2 handed weapon, ensure your holding it with the right hand

even when using a 2 handed weapon or sword you can still use the left hand for grabbing, although it has to be 'disconnected' from the 2 handed grip first by clicking q to attempt a grab

[cerulean needle]

Grabbing with a two-hand capable weapon leads to situations like this

[remote crypt]

which goes well at times

[cerulean needle]

Block weapon, grab, swing away

[sinful sparrow]

this is basically cheating

[summer brook]

@jolly gorge he was trying to pull his sword out after he dropped his mace and it got stuck so he flew

[golden drift]

i see some gameplay footage of people entering into a fight with lots of armour on or a variety of weapons and i can't seem to figure out what mode they are playing or how they are making that happen, any thoughts?

the fights are 1v1 afaik

what game mode were you playing?

hmm i am only offered fist play and carnage when i hit play, any idea how i get those other modes?

[fierce shoal]

holy shit I hate how you move in this game

[dusty gyro]

VR player is gonna be so OP lol, i hope they seperate them if there were multiplayer. or maybe add a mixed server

[cerulean needle]

We more or less already have half sword VR, its called blade and sorcery. Though some physics and reactions are tied to animations when it comes to blocking and attacking to make it smoother on the NPC side

half sword vr would be more in depth

[tough yew]

b&s sucks

still the best out here but still sucks

[cerulean needle]

I mean i dont play it for historically-accurate (inspired) fighting

Its a fantasy game

[tough yew]

a fantasy game where the ai barely fights back

[cerulean needle]

whens the last time you touched it and have you tried mods

you can adjust that freely

[tough yew]

you shouldn't need to download mods to fix stuff like that

[cerulean needle]

Its more of a preference than a fix, its how they designed it

[ancient canyon]

Yeah smart, not comfortable enough playing around with that myself but fair play

[cerulean needle]

if they wanted them to attack 100x faster they would change it

I dont mind taking 5 minutes to make it better suited to me

lmao

i play blade and sorcery like its assassins creed and use stealth hidden blade stuff i dont play it unmodded

with the long ass dungeons

[ancient canyon]

Thought you was over cocky and I got immediately pissed off with you, then I watched the vid and ur just cracked

[tough yew]

even if mods allow for such things the combat would still be thoroughly lacking since there isn't a lot of variety with the combat animations that the npcs use themselves

and there ARE mods that add custom animations but those aren't really good

[cerulean needle]

Yes if that means that much to you, its not a physics game in terms of NPCS reacting so it will never match because the NPCS dont flail around in VR like they would inevitably do

The closest i think was tales of glory

to half sword VR

and its wonky as hell

the games just aren't comparable imo

[tough yew]

what im saying is at least give the npcs two handed weapon animations and more before adding in a mediocre mode and justifying it as a full release

[ancient canyon]

Collisions are annoying af also, like go to stab them in the face but you just glide over their sword so it doesnt work

[cerulean needle]

I haven't had that problem lol

I like blade and sorcery for what it gives, and i like half sword for what it gives, im looking for two entirely separate games when i play both one doesn't override the other for me.

Can literally turn blade and sorcery into star wars with blaster bolt reflection like cmon

[tough yew]

not really comparing the both here im just saying my opinion for blade and sorcery

yeah its configurable with all of the cool mods out there but the core of blade and sorcery is lacking

[cerulean needle]

Yes but you are saying its sucks due to limited animation parameters for NPCS

Whens the last time you saw a 1.0 physics vr game with dynamic attack animations for NPCS

[iron stone]

when setup

[cerulean needle]

It's not done for a reason

[tough yew]

i do think it could work

[cerulean needle]

Then get on the dev team and help them

lmfao

[tough yew]

willie's just gonna need to take a chill pill and not rush you

[iron stone]

how much dpi you use to achieve stuff like that

[cerulean needle]

If they worked on the game for 8 years with a full team they aren't going to not add it because its just "hard"

Half sword is way better for fighting simulation but it doesn't offer some of the things it does, its why i like both

[tough yew]

can't really think off anything but magic

[cerulean needle]

Stealth, uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (VR!?)

[supple cedar]

new type of r- i mean ummmmm

[cerulean needle]

Loadout customization via the introduction screen, fully capable modding, can turn the entire game into other settings

[tough yew]

ill give it that

[cerulean needle]

You can freely grip the weapons instead of having locked animation points

Kick

Jump

[tough yew]

kicks already bein worked on bucko. you'll be skinned for that sin alone.

[cerulean needle]

And bloodborne is coming to pc.

You see my point?

[tough yew]

that's an entirely separate thing though

unless if you mean like an overhaul

[cerulean needle]

We can discuss small factors and have ah-ha gotcha moments back and forth, but like the features are there and thats why its different. I know they are developing new gore, kicking feature etc

Half sword has had much less time in comparison so im curious to see its potential

(dev wise)

But its two different games entirely

one is vr based one is not, i dont see it as very comparable

[tough yew]

yea

[cerulean needle]

which is why because half sword is great doesn't mean it sucks

entirely different ball game

[remote crypt]

fencer and Gnith giving each other shit

I'm intrigued

[tough yew]

i'll still hold my opinion of blade and sorcery being rushed to the ground

[remote crypt]

[cerulean needle]

Its early access bruh of course it was

[remote crypt]

Agreed fully @tough yew

[cerulean needle]

They needed to release early access and keep updating it so they could acquire funding, But as of right now they have updated AI, long procedural dungeons that shift in door mechanisms, enemy layouts etc. If all your looking for is enemy animations and attack frequency, and it takes five minutes to mod i dont see why not with playing it considering it's 20$

30 now, actually.

[tough yew]

30 bucks for that

[cerulean needle]

A physics based sandbox engine with actual dungeon content and a main hunt mode? yeah i'd pay that considering you can transform the game

[remote crypt]

Oh I'm glad I bought it when it was 20 then

[tough yew]

me as well

totally not worth the 30 bucks

[cerulean needle]

Fair enough

But to say it sucks because of one factor you can change is strange, its just the devs opinion on how the reactions should be, but you can easily change it, you almost treated it like it was a sin to play just because of how its originally programmed

If blade and sorcery sucks i cant imagine what you enjoy otherwise on VR

Other than like beat saber or something

[tough yew]

h3vr for life

[cerulean needle]

Now i understand the logic path lol

[tough yew]

notice how the ai was broken in the initial release of 1.0 to 1.0.3

[cerulean needle]

is it still broken?

[tough yew]

they had to dedicate an entire update to fix it lol

[cerulean needle]

Okay

I imagine thats what updates are for

Its cool they kept fixing it despite their mistakes

[tough yew]

which gives me the signs that the devs clearly rushed the game. when you fuck up the most important parts of the game and had to make the playerbase wait for like three updates just to actually experience what they "meant" you to play lol

[cerulean needle]

Yeah noone here is arguing it wasn't rushed

I got a lot of value for my 20$

idc

[tough yew]

anyhow if you enjoy blade and sorcery that's cool but me as a fart fella who played the game at u9 is not satisfied at all with what I got as the "finished product"

[cerulean needle]

I started at u5 lol

[tough yew]

that didn't have gore no?

[cerulean needle]

if it sucks it sucks

thats cool man

[tough yew]

unless it did idk

[cerulean needle]

i dont even remember

[tough yew]

yeah b&s went through many stages its quite hard to actually remember what was in these old forsaken versions

[idle crane]

I just fought the first bs boss it was awesome

[weak roost]

Now do it again, basically.

I just never liked how the AI moved.

[remote crypt]

agreed

and their general vibe

sweeping weird swings drove me nuts

[weak roost]

I’ve yet to play a VR game made melee with weapons feel good.

[young terrace]

did the devs turn the sharp swords into maces lol

they go bonk instead of slash

[remote crypt]

In this game?

you have to make a solid strike

[young terrace]

playtest ye

[young terrace]

whats that

like charged it or smth?

[neon furnace]

https://medal.tv/pl/games/half-sword/clips/iRk9zD9bski-_QXl0?invite=cr-MSx6b3gsMjc3OTM3OTM0LA had this glitch happen to me a few days ago lol

[young terrace]

a miracle

[remote crypt]

See how all of my strikes make a solid connection? IE- noise or the enemy screaming?

[young terrace]

ohh kk

yep

its also why I lost my hand there, I fed it to him by accident

[young terrace]

lol

really wished they added blood back

atleast ik that i actually hitted him and not gazed him

[neon furnace]

Up and away ahh

[remote crypt]

You'll usually tell by their reaction

a good hit can usually cause them to scream and grab the limb, or drop the weapon

but really, kill shots are the goal

depending on your weapon, and the opponent as well binding them is a great idea

like here I binded up their axe to get an opening for that neck shot

[young terrace]

dude fought a jedi

[young terrace]

they should add a killshot in the balls area

wold be silly

[neon furnace]

since i won willy (thats his name right?) is more powerfull then a jedi

[remote crypt]

If you hit torso hitbox there is

[median field]

When will halfsword playtest get its blood and gore?

[tough yew]

soon, potentially this week since one of the game seer fellas teased us.

[median field]

ok thats good

[stone jacinth]

how do u get armor in the game like in full armor

[cerulean trail]

in the main menu u can choose ur armor level by selecting one of these

[tough yew]

that is if you have the play test

[stone jacinth]

oh that make sense

[tough yew]

if you dont simply request it on steam and wait

[brave grail]

You, I’m curious, if everyone is accepted to the play test, why not have the play test version be the one in the demo?

[tough yew]

everyone is accepted, and the play test was meant to be given out for a few number of people but the devs decided to give it out to everyone last minute.

[brave grail]

Ah I see

[ripe meteor]
