# shy quail top tier comedy, iq, and maturity. thanks

HOWEVER mr iq. If you had some super high IQ!!! You’d have enough understanding of reading comprehension to know that “after” something, is NOT a specific date, and In fact, does NOT mean immediately after. Turns out-that part was in your head as your own idea of “when”

question

#

what does "Body density" and "Bone snapping" do?

crude flower
#

Bone breaking is in the game so it just makes it more or less common

#

Body density is uhhhhh

#

I'd say like if the body density was lower you could smack around the willies more. Fling them all around compared to hitting one and him staying still

near spruce
#

Body density is body mass divided by body volume 😝

crude flower
#

Real

#

Reposting this here since it fits the topic more

#

I'm doing a video on Halfsword for my first video on a new channel and I need 5 people who've played it to voice over interviews for it, would anybody be interested in that?

#

This is the last I shall post of it as to not spam it

I'm curious about something

#

will the demo (however finished it is) be available when it goes to early access as free?

#

AND

#

will there be any kickstarter where we can pre-buy and support the devs? Hmm

#

asking for a friend. (Totally not gonna buy 5 or 6 copies)

don't know about the demo, but there is a kickstarter

dude how are you supposed to have fun with fully armored gameplay?

#

i dunno if i'm just doing it wrong, but the ttk is super high

granite parrot
#

We need new things over all the game is getting dry

potent pagoda
#

you kinda gotta lean into it? idk a lot of HEMA is very grapple-y and goofy looking

#

if there's one major flaw it's that pinning an opponent means very little because there's no guidance/assistance for dagger piercing

#

so getting in between armor plates is impossible

rain acorn
# remote crypt wym?

primarily, it seems like i can never hit any gaps in their armor, and vice versa

just goes on for a long time until either the bot or i get knocked out

potent pagoda
#

if you're fighting with a dull weapon just try to knock the other willie out

#

if you're fighting with a longsword then pin him and aim for his armpits

#

(halfswording makes thrusting a lot more accurate)

near grotto

#

no it isn't lol, just practice with aiming your thrusts

some of it's luck, but no more than actual HEMA is

why would i actually practice something

honestly though, light to mid armor is the sweet spot for me

I'm not gonna be the one to do it since I did

potent pagoda
#

aw sweet, gatekeeping

potent pagoda
rain acorn
#

i fully understand that the game is primarily going for historically accurate weapons, but a big chunky hammer would feel so good i think

#

not ridiculous or anything, but a bit bigger than the biggest one currently in game would probably be nice as a "boss" weapon if they're doing those

potent pagoda
#

yeah a mallet for the farmer tier would be neat

#

sucks that war hammers were built for puncturing armor and not bonking plebs

rain acorn
#

don't they have mallets?

potent pagoda
#

teensy ones iirc

rain acorn
#

yeah just regular tool hammers

potent pagoda
#

yeah I mean like stake driving mallets

rain acorn
#

a big silly bonkin mallet would be hilarious, though unlikely to be added

potent pagoda
#

eh, idk. I think there's a possibility that we'll see more focus on the "farmer with a stick" tier in future development

#

Maybe a reverse brave stand mode?

#

maybe we'll even get a threshing flail when weapon physics get more refined

#

look at him go!

#

and look there's a hammer too

remote crypt
#

hammer

#

I think they're smartly going with the most recognizable weapons first

You can't split heads in playtest

#

No gore

#

I can imbed it into their heads though

I could not imagine Half Sword being all that interesting as a multiplayer title.

Every medieval fighter is super jank in their own ways. Half Sword would be. . . among the worst offenders just due to how the fighting physics works.

We not use much market place items

#

barley any

#

only social discord, and nvidia stuff

stuck oar
# restive garnet idk what that is

Essentially it replaces the default unreal engine movement component and allows for easier implementation of custom networked movement for characters.

I'd personally like to see a randomly generated dungeon-crawler rogue like kind of mode in this game more than mp. Maybe kind of like exanima I guess tho I haven't played that game. Just wandering through randomly generated hallways and rooms in a dungeon and fighting enemies and picking up weapons and stuff you find along the way. Not unlike the steam demo I guess

We’ve heard your battle cries for BLOOD and GORE in Half Sword, and while Tokyo Game Show came and went without even a whisper of red splatter, we’ve got some exciting new updates. Let’s clear up the confusion around that old September 21st date—turns out, that was misinformation. But fear not! 🩸

We’re pleased to announce that December will be the month for the REAL deal—a roadmap is coming! And with it, we’ll be announcing the official announcement date! Yes, you heard that right: an announcement for announcements, which will lead to future announcements... about announcements!

Stay sharp, warriors—blood is coming! Eventually. Patience is key. 🩸🛡️

i love teaching myself new tech in the playtest

#

im learning how to throw punches 10x more effectivelyt

#

how do i get the playtest?

#

Ok don't know if they're around but somebody told me to brace my feet into the ground for better swings in conjunction with timing and man these polearms are kinda good when you get the hang of it just smack people in the knee and hit em in the head. Anybody got tips on improving strikes that go straight down can't seem to avoid going side to side for the life of me

azure rose
#

It's a green button by the part that says playtest I believe

light pike
#

it took me like 30 minutes to get it down

#

it makes it easier if u turn lock on off

#

there isnt much tricks you just cant move ur mouse left or right at ALL

#

it takes practice

idle crane
#

You can crouch while swinging to make the swing shorter and stronger

And it was all in your head

@fresh python

#

you got some explaining to do

elfin frigate
#

tbh i do think the controls need some tweaking, and i fully expecr the final game to feel slightly different to play. and you can practice and git gud and everything but just because i can consistently do vertical swings doesn't mean that there's any reason it should take hours for people to be able to perform the simplest possible action.

#

like maybe how goofy the physics makes combat feel initially and overcoming that is part of the appeal they're going for but i have literally no training and when i rarely spar with my LARP friends i can perform all of these movements far more easily/intuitively irl than in HS

bro had common sense

idle crane
#

It is currently prealpha. Improvements are guaranteed to happen

Be cool to see armor getting caved in future versions

#

Especially helmets, their head just pops lmfao

elfin frigate
# idle crane It is currently prealpha. Improvements are guaranteed to happen

right i'm just saying i feel like the sentiment of "git gud" clouds people's judgement of the game sometimes. ultimately how difficult the game should be to play properly is up to the devs and i expect i'll enjoy it as much regardless, i just feel like moving your mouse .5 milimeters horizontally while moving it 2-3 inches vertically shouldn't make your weapon 90 degrees off target 💀

For the playtest, Go to https://store.steampowered.com/app/2397300/Half_Sword/ to request access, wait for a confirmation email from the devs. From there you'll have the playtest available to install directly in your steam library, just please be patient as there have been over 650,000 people accepted so far, so things may take a little bit, depending on who's online, it can take 1-12 hours typically.

When the confirmation email is in your inbox (be sure to check your spam just in case!) the game will be automatically added to your steam library under "Half Sword Playtest"

enjoy and welcome to HalfSword!

If you have any additional questions, check the #faq , and you can ask the mods for help too! respect

curious if we will get flails

#

what century were they

#

i need to check

tough yew
#

they can work

#

there are a few depictions of them

trail pivot
#

then i guess the bigger issue would be physics

bitter zinc
#

Looking at the gore images and clips we have so far, is there still going to be blood pools like in the demo or will it just be splatter?

fleet stump
#

Flails are very, very interesting objects :]

bitter zinc
#

cuz I like the way the blood pools are done in the demo

fleet stump
#

Hitting a face with one will be utterly satisfying, especially if pieces of that face come off

trail pivot
#

flails are one of my favourite weapons

#

only now i started wondering, with a weapon like a mace or a flail, would be nice to not only have gore, but also have denting the armor with heavy blows
