halfsword-chat-⚔

[jolly gorge]

ima start playing with player damage all the way up, ill send a clip of what happens on my first game with it on

[round otter]

last time i did that i remember the blunt damage being very high

[severe briar]

Even when I did the highest tier

[dreamy escarp]

idk its called old ass helmet i think

[sour path]

an armet i think?

[round otter]

to be fair, you have a double handed axe and he has a kitchen knife

[dreamy escarp]

now try that against a guy with a sword

[jolly gorge]

what level they at

[round otter]

3 above

[dreamy escarp]

green guy with a sword

[jolly gorge]

ill do 4.

[round otter]

ty

[severe briar]

I like doing brave stand but only using my fist

[dreamy escarp]

idk why yall scared to do higher tiers

[dreamy escarp]

https://tenor.com/view/gigachad-chad-gif-20773266

[round otter]

because kicking people in the testicles is ineffective

[quaint mirage]

i changed my dx and now i cant run the game

[dreamy escarp]

reinstall it

[quaint mirage]

smart

[jolly gorge]

too boring, i prefer to have no armor, because then i end up just only clanking against their armor for awhile till either i die or kill them

[pulsar skiff]

Nut Cracker

[round otter]

you gotta use the pointy part

[quaint mirage]

does anyone know how to change DX

[dreamy escarp]

then do like the ones inbetween, where they have armor but also weak spots, actually makes the game challenging rather than fighting homeless man with a kitchen knife

[pulsar skiff]

Thats why it's red...

[round otter]

yeowch

[dreamy escarp]

no nut 😭

[severe briar]

that's gotta be racist

[fallen dust]

THE ULTIMATE WEAPON

[round otter]

if i kept hitting it then yeah

[dreamy escarp]

ok why tf is your guy dumb and clumsy but my guy has mastered the sword???

[jolly gorge]

beginners luck or is my axe skills carrying over to the sword.

ima go again but in first person

with my screen being blocked kinda cuz of the stupid hat

[molten echo]

now even elden ring crashes on me, I have nothing left to play until the crash thing gets fixed at some point

[round otter]

[dreamy escarp]

[cyan quail]

Okok i’ll try

[dreamy escarp]

NO NO WAIT I MEANT IN TERMS OF FIGHTING

[round otter]

[dreamy escarp]

[jolly gorge]

[round otter]

https://www.nexusmods.com/halfsword/mods/11

[dreamy escarp]

[severe briar]

LMFAO THE WAY YALL LOOKED AT EACHOTHER THEN STARTED SWINING
\

[dreamy escarp]

no mercy

[jolly gorge]

what i find funny is the way he grabs me, the music stops, and we are both just staring at eachother in shock that he can grab, and then we start throwing hands again

[gilded veldt]

my proudest work(?)

[lavish abyss]

i duped this guys torso lmao

[severe briar]

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/j8JBDS6hem-sQducN?invite=cr-MSxySVcsMjg3NjQ4MDQ5LA He wouldnt let me go so i slammed him into the barrier

[past ginkgo]

baseball bat ahh stance

[gilded veldt]

[dreamy escarp]

this is mine

[gilded veldt]

the ARCH

[dreamy escarp]

willies back hurt that day

[severe briar]

bro is just jorkin it

[round otter]

i love when ai go full wwe

[cyan quail]

Still doesnt work, im just frozen everytime i return to menu from game

[jolly gorge]

this brawl was crazy, the dude even started to move me around when i fell over at one point

[round otter]

you gotta wait a bit i think

[gilded veldt]

get a better pc

[dreamy escarp]

ai once grabbed me by my waist and suplexed me for some reason

[cosmic sequoia]

i made someone bite the curb with a sword

[pallid bluff]

why do i get 10 fps everytime gore happens in playtest

[round otter]

you used to be able to fling people around by the waist but medal isn't working

[cosmic sequoia]

kicked his head into the sword and it cut right through

[round otter]

very old clip but herehttps://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/j0ugZX5Neu9jEtQut?invite=cr-MSxyQUMsMjYxNjYxNjE5LA

[gilded veldt]

thats not BITING THE CURB THEN thats just BITING THE SWORD!!! /j

[pallid bluff]

rtx 3060 and ryzen 5600X and gore tanks fps in playtest

[cosmic sequoia]

yeah the gore is still indev so its a bit laggy

[severe briar]

Yeah before the update if you tried to grab cheeks they'd just go crazy

[pallid bluff]

glad its not just me at least

[cosmic sequoia]

but as long as you dont desecrate corpses your fps should be at a stable level

[severe briar]

^

[dreamy escarp]

i mean like 2 hands wrapped around me, the ai crouched and i got suplexed

[summer pollen]

why does the blood look like a default 3d model?

[pallid bluff]

true

[cosmic sequoia]

count dukuing someone will still get you 60+ fps

[prime nymph]

Bc it is bro, it is...

[lusty blaze]

willie broke my arms, so I used my legs to break is legs

[summer pollen]

ah alright

this is the reason for the lag? high poly spherical blood particles with full plastic reflection?

[woeful lodge]

i just downloaded the update but its got no gore... how fix?

[dreamy escarp]

i hate the long stick guys

[jolly gorge]

rate the brawl i had with bro

[snow grail]

anyone else having a weird effect with the kick in fist play where your opponent auto grabs after each kick??

[severe briar]

if you're in fist play they do

[lusty blaze]

1# restart the game #2 reset your pc 3# reinstall the game. If none of them works I can't help

[inner quiver]

its called a spear, LOL

[snow grail]

I don't get it 😂 -- I have to double kick to toggle off their grab

[dreamy escarp]

no its different

[round otter]

that blood particle is horrible

[inner quiver]

the one with the spikes?

[dreamy escarp]

yes

[severe briar]

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/j8JLDO2ORePsq53f9?invite=cr-MSxJN2ssMjg3NjQ4MDQ5LA They were lovers

[inner quiver]

oh i didnt see no spikes lol

[tepid coral]

Love the happy wheelss victory music

[lusty blaze]

you guys toggle off is grab? I grab him in return and punch him to death

[lyric thorn]

why he got a cartoon bite taken outta him

[gaunt grail]

dude is in half

[lyric thorn]

loud bite sfx

[lusty blaze]

in half... in half sword???

[woeful lodge]

reinstall fixed it, cheers

[vestal flare]

#game-footage-🎮🎥 message 🗿

[gaunt grail]

quite

[gilded veldt]

sexy posing

[dreamy escarp]

how....

[wind charm]

Game fucking crashed after Willie IMPLODED.

[severe briar]

LMFAO

[calm ivy]

Reminds me of mine lol:

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/j8H9yll1lRhz2ru1K/spok?invite=cr-MSxUS3AsMjY1MzE2ODc2LA

[remote crypt]

oh my

[open furnace]

tomaota sauce everywhere

[fallen dust]

wtf did I cut out?

[brazen shard]

I spawned in and chopped my leg off with my own sword 😭

[warped python]

get the game back to the last version

[fallen dust]

He got everything left, wtf is that meatsack?

[lusty blaze]

nice half swording then :DDD

[dreamy escarp]

was this luck?

[gilded veldt]

least obvious bait

[silent verge]

Catch of the day

"Caught this bad boy right off the pier"

[calm ivy]

That's what I'D want! At least, as an option for potato PCs! Leave blood for everyone else that can run it

[silent verge]

Just turn blood down

[cerulean needle]

Im not going to lie im not sure why they didnt leave it as a steam properties beta option with the last version. I love the update though

[lusty blaze]

doesn't fix it, but works a lil a guess.

[gilded veldt]

next update we need enemy blood on players
i mean like early access

[stoic sedge]

how do i turn blood down!!!

[lusty blaze]

options<game<blood

[stoic sedge]

nvm im blind lol it was right there

[lusty blaze]

setting*

[dreamy escarp]

why do i keep cutting off their legs :(

[cerulean needle]

skill issue

[silent verge]

Dont buy temu armor folks

[stoic sedge]

omg

[silent verge]

pushed my sword right through this guys face

[subtle star]

Did they change the damage to reflect the gore a bit more or is it the same but with visuals now?

[twin jolt]

i turned up the graphics to high by accident and now it wont even let me in the game saying i have too low memory

[summer pollen]

they decreased blunt damage among other things

[twin jolt]

you guys know how to change the settings from outside the game?

[lusty blaze]

before you couldn't cut willie in half, now you can, so I'd say yes willie takes more damage sadly

[calm bough]

Will there be any optimization changes in the future for the Playtest?

[stoic sedge]

can we break the whole skull of Willie like in the demo

[dreamy escarp]

yeah

[stoic sedge]

splendid

[gilded veldt]

"it may not look like it, but ive won this fight "

[muted gull]

blood lookin like red paint

[dreamy escarp]

BULLSHIT!

[woven nexus]

They said there's an issue with blood having too high poly...will be fixed in future

[gilded veldt]

my first vs my best
i have ones with better filters but the second one has great posing

[summer pollen]

i bruised the sword???

[silent verge]

Well the damage is consistent with the visual

for example if you cut off a guys hand, he cant grab, shallow cuts just make them bleed, but deep ones keep bleeding and deeper still make the limb go limp

[subtle star]

I don't know if its just placebo but it feels like the weapons just hit better in the demo

[storm wagon]

...interesting bug

[silent verge]

Lower bone density, makes the weapons go through easier like in the demo thats the difference

[gilded veldt]

i love axing with minimum density

[gilded veldt]

i was wondering what the bug was until i saw willie's conjoined twin

[sage bloom]

does increasing bone snapping make it easier to snap bones or opposite

[lyric thorn]

bigfoot when camera

[gilded veldt]

easier

[gilded veldt]

bro i literally made something like that earlier

[dreamy escarp]

was this a parry?

[jovial ridge]

@boreal path game good

[sage bloom]

was the goendag nerfed? feels like a wet noodle now

[dreamy escarp]

for me it still demolishes willies the same

fast one

[slim hamlet]

you how do I get to the better armor/weapons? I keep winning my knife fights and then it's just the same basic weapons again

London Simulator is fun but I want the good weapons now

[dreamy escarp]

click the icons

these

[slim hamlet]

holy shit lmao I'm so dumb thank you

[dreamy escarp]

okay i did NOT mean to do that

[frail forge]

a difficult battle

[dreamy escarp]

sometimes i win then i die at the same time i won

[vocal grotto]

How does your game run so smoothly? Mine lags like hell for no reason (I have 3060 and a Ryzen 7, don't think it's hardware)

[frail forge]

bro cut my right hand so I couldnt hold my billhook, so i shanked him to death with my dagger lol

[cosmic star]

guys I dont have the update yet wtf?

[frail forge]

have you tried restarting steam

[dreamy escarp]

dx11 renderer

[cosmic star]

ye

[frail forge]

🤷

[frank scarab]

reinstall the game?

[frail forge]

what am i even looking at

[onyx epoch]

i've never seen a fumble this bad

[keen hearth]

I've crashed 6 times in the past hour in Spoilance while punching

[slim tusk]

why did i spawn without a sword 😭

[frank scarab]

yall rate this clip from 1 to 10,
i think i did really good on this, i mean, that kick was FOUL

[frail forge]

https://tenor.com/view/boooooo-this-guy-stinks-serious-spongebob-squarepants-gif-11981386

[dreamy escarp]

ok what did i do wrong :(

[tribal pewter]

bro is basically a zombie atp

[lucid hatch]

what is the difference between thrust mode and just thrust

[sleek prairie]

🤤

[narrow gazelle]

i love you halfsword

[frail forge]

my opponent just spawned with his leg not attached lol

[west plover]

vision

[tribal pewter]

you can control when you can thrust with thrust mode while just thrust is holding the weapon in front of youu

[frail forge]

you rushed in when he still had a sword in his hand

[gaunt nimbus]

damn

[dreamy escarp]

ohh shit you right

[lyric thorn]

WHY DID THEY FLY

[dreamy escarp]

his face literally detached

dude i suck at parrying :(

[stoic sedge]

holy crap thats brutal\

blunt nerf cant stop me

[vapid hull]

Hie what can I help with :3

[west plover]

HOW MANY KICKS TO THE NUTS CAN WILLIE TAKE JESUS

[coarse hemlock]

hot

[stoic sedge]

he has notte socks of steellie

[lusty blaze]

guys, what does body density do in the options?

[jolly gorge]

im glad im not the only one who did this

[west plover]

Ok but I kicked him so hard his feet left the ground 6 times in a row

[stoic sedge]

does what it says make body denser and harder to pierce

[placid flare]

had everyone calmed tf down

[stoic sedge]

mostly

[west plover]

I've been kicking willie to cool of after working with a shitty coworker so I'm actually awesome

[lusty blaze]

ok thanks, wasn't sure because i couldn't see any changes

[rose horizon]

this goes hard

[storm wagon]

think I know what's going on here

[coarse hemlock]

buggy

[storm wagon]

I chopped off the top half of this guy's head, but the game, presumably to save on performance (though I assume this is a bug), just spawned a normal severed head with the line I basically carved across the corpse's head drawn across it.

[dreamy escarp]

its 4:45 am in the morning for me rn

[hearty relic]

OH GOD THIS UPDATE IS SO PEAK IM IN LOVE

[stoic sedge]

parrying feels so good after update

[stoic sedge]

man the first willie got his head squashed

[gilded veldt]

guys i think this is my best one yet

[coarse hemlock]

gremlin

[mighty fossil]

guys

is mordhau possible to do in halfsword?

[stoic sedge]

bro said🥶

[placid pendant]

no

[mighty fossil]

sadly

[frail forge]

glaive is brutal

[dreamy escarp]

this game pisses me off

[coarse hemlock]

how

[dreamy escarp]

what do you think

[hearty relic]

kinda?

[coarse hemlock]

crashes?

[frail forge]

https://tenor.com/view/kid-mad-angry-furious-injection-gif-4444762

[coarse hemlock]

🤣

[frail forge]

half sword pommel strike is the best you get, take it or leave it

[hearty relic]

like not a true mordhau but you still very much can pommel strike mfs in halfsword mode

[mighty fossil]

lol k

[dreamy escarp]

https://tenor.com/view/konkon-lomando-knock-mako-scary-gif-17145320

[hearty relic]

i guess we can call it a reverse grip mordhau lmao

[frail forge]

or just a normal grip pommel strike

[dreamy escarp]

gnome

[pine summit]

foolish gnome stabbed himself

[coarse hemlock]

he was done

[hearty relic]

https://tenor.com/view/midra-midra-lord-of-frenzied-flame-elden-ring-dlc-gif-7146039330058169587

[dreamy escarp]

FINALLY

[solar pivot]

They should buff blunt weapons. Maces and stuff right now are basically pointless because they worse than swords for both armored and unarmored foes

[placid pendant]

Maces are actually better now than before, because its much easier to control it

[pine summit]

polehammers and similar feel much slower and worse to control

[stark lava]

how tf do i get the gore? i have blood but none of the cool dismemberment y'all have (im on the playtest with dx11)

[solar pivot]

The problem isn’t controlling it’s that they don’t damage armored foes like they would realistically

[dreamy escarp]

restart steam

[frail forge]

it was at this moment, he knew... he fucked up

[dreamy escarp]

wait no use different weapons

[stark lava]

ive been usin swords and spears is that not work?

[frail forge]

it was at this moment, he died

[dreamy escarp]

turn down body density

[hearty relic]

might need to aim better and strike harder

[stark lava]

ok

[placid pendant]

As I said its much better now than it was before because you can hit the head every single time now.

[frail forge]

scalped bro's helmet lol

[placid pendant]

I don't know where you find it worse cause I'm getting more consistent wins with it now

[short imp]

I have a challange, has anyone been able to knock over the training dummy

for some reason thats what ive been doing for like 20 minutes now

[frail forge]

i have tried but haven't done it yet

the training dummy doesn't bleed so i lose interest in it rather quickly

[dreamy escarp]

this game pisses me off once more

[gaunt grail]

I believe that it's unable to tip over

Probably so you can't glitch with it

[stoic sedge]

how did I win AND lose

[stray garnet]

https://tenor.com/view/shakagabb-hah-jhna-me-kicked-kick-gif-12595112

[short imp]

I guess thats a half win

[dreamy escarp]

i hate when you die you get booted straight to the menu

[placid pendant]

Like I'm serious it's both comically easier for the mace and harder for the greatsword

[bright belfry]

Bro bit the spear

[jovial wren]

"I think you dropped this"

[stoic sedge]

how is your game running so smooth

[placid pendant]

I'm running on high instead of epic graphics

[fast osprey]

hey guys, anyone know what kind of font is used in the game

[jovial wren]

lmao I have to run the game on the lowest possible settings and the game still regularly crashes with the new gore system

[stoic sedge]

this is so weird, my game is running better on high instead of medium

[rotund hare]

hope they push quick hotfix for the high poly blood

[crude path]

Yeah the game runs horrible with blood visible

[thin totem]

do you still get the dismemberment? im on medium and still havent seen a arm or head fly

[storm wagon]

More jank--spears apparently yeet you or your opponent into the rafters.

[jovial wren]

yeah

[crude path]

Yeah you get it at all settings it's just fairly hard to do

[stoic sedge]

WHAT

[thin totem]

huh...odd...

is body density messing it up?

[dreamy escarp]

is the ai smarter now?

[crude path]

Not anywhere near as easy as the demo, btw, I'm gonna call this a feature but severed legs under certain circumstances do hilarious amounts of damage

[solar pivot]

That’s easy to say when the foe is on the ground . Once they on the ground it’s basically over

[cinder stone]

I am so disappointed

How come the settings STILL DON'T STICK through launches |:c

[jovial wren]

if you use the great sword you can hack off limbs on dead people, the legs seem to be the best at dismembering

[crude path]

I hit a guy with a severed leg and it killed him instantly, beheaded him and cut his arm in 3 places

[cinder stone]

how hard is it to tell a program to save settings

[thin totem]

got you ima try that

[crude path]

Clearly a feature, not a bug :kek:

[brazen shard]

Split into 2

[jovial wren]

yo chill, it takes like 5 seconds to quickly set your sliders

[cinder stone]

it annoys me that I have to use these sliders that aren't even precise or tell me what my current choice is in a numerical format or whatever, and this every single time

I also don't gel with the music so I always have to mute it

[frail forge]

i love these shots a single moment before disaster

[placid pendant]

I mean warhammers and maces aren't exactly viable as primary weapons in the first place, while they can still be used they are, well, overestimated in what they can do against armor

[stoic sedge]

his face separated harder than the church and state in the 1790s

[cinder stone]

shit sometimes the mouse sensitivity doesn't even stick through battles

[jovial wren]

then say that, don't be a prick about it

[frail forge]

he is demon possessed

[cinder stone]

that's three menus I have to get through before I can play the game

[placid pendant]

This is still pretty powerful even after the nerf, and i still feel it when using it as a backup

[crude path]

hit homeboy with lore-accurate excalibur

how tf does this even happen 😭

[stiff belfry]

finally gave willie a proper black eye instead of his entire face just turning blue 😭

[crude path]

ripped through the armor like wet paper

[thin totem]

holy shit, bro cut through armour

[jovial wren]

3 menues is nothing my dude

[crude path]

i didn't even cut it i ripped it like fuckin tissue paper???

[cinder stone]

yes it is, when you have to do it every single time and again, the sliders aren't precise enough for me to find the same settings that I liked

[snow gulch]

e

[crude path]

play on the original settings then :thinks:

[frail forge]

bro having a bad day

[cinder stone]

again, how hard is it to make a game save its settings? it's such a basic thing

[crude path]

tbf yeah it is annoying, the demo does do it

[frail forge]

this guy just REFUSES to have fun

[cinder stone]

I want to have fun, but the game gets in my way

[snow gulch]

dawg got the fire enchant that lets him cut through armour like butter 😭

[upbeat elk]

how is that fun

[cerulean needle]

There's a lot of things i could say

[wise holly]

anyone else getting bad frames?

[cinder stone]

then say them

[cerulean needle]

You already know what they are, and I'd be playing into your game

[cinder stone]

no, you're just trying to be a smartass

[cerulean needle]

That is insinuating you know what im going to say

[brazen shard]

🫢

[jovial wren]

My dude, shit takes time, have patience, reset your sliders, and get on with your day, its not that deep

[cerulean needle]

It is because he needs something to be mad about

[cinder stone]

shit's been happening for a long time too

[frail forge]

me when people dont want to have fun

[jovial wren]

She said what??? ah pose

[cinder stone]

that's a lotta patience already

[cerulean needle]

not enough

[desert gull]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1301047706063474692/1309682236945076265/caption.gif

[brazen gyro]

having fun with photo mode😎

[jovial wren]

oh no! you had to go through 3 menus every once in a while! Whatever will you do!?

[cinder stone]

not every once in a while, every time you smoothbrain

[snow gulch]

is that your only complaint

[cinder stone]

yes

[cerulean needle]

Such a foxy attitude

You ought to put a muzzle on that mouth

[jovial wren]

bruh what? how fucking often are you closing and reopening it?

[frail forge]

someone needs to go forage for their food more

[snow gulch]

i aint even gonna try to rationalize being this angry over something that small

[cinder stone]

twice or thrice, sometimes 4 times

[cerulean needle]

He used the word thrice, subhuman

[cinder stone]

I don't play it all day

[tranquil flame]

Overhead does not seem to work properly

[jovial wren]

Oh no! that adds up to like, 9 menus!

[gilded veldt]

i think willie's feeling a little down!

[jovial wren]

I'm going to go back to enjoying my time dismembering willies, if you don't mind

[snow gulch]

overhead is a little too sensitive, if you dont do it perfectly it ends up veering off to the side. would 100% help if crosshairs were still here

[brazen gyro]

halflife zombie model confirmed

[crude flower]

ngl i do wish you could still chop into something without cutting them in half instantly

[smoky quail]

I had to turn down the Blood slider since it drops my frames significantly, but atleast there's still blood stains so I can see damage

[cinder stone]

Quit being an asshole, the menus ARE a giant annoyance and gets on my nerves over time

[crude flower]

pretty silly

[tranquil flame]

...crosshairs?

[snow gulch]

yeah in the demo they had a crosshair.. well it was more like a cursor ig lol, it still helped me aim a little

[jovial wren]

"Giant annoyence" is crazy, it takes like, 10 seconds max

[cinder stone]

I'm sorry for having some fucking standards here

[stark lava]

How do you do that? I still can’t cut ppl up it only shows a line of blood

[crude flower]

it's a playtest

[sacred compass]

cut them harder

[smoky quail]

overhead swings usually work better when you switch hands

[hasty flame]

genuinely: how the fuck are you supposed to punch the way the ai does

[snow gulch]

10 SECONDS TOO FUCKING LONG. I WANT MY MENUS PRE-SERVED ACCORDING TO MY PRECISE TASTES, AND WITH A CARAMEL FRAPPUCINO

[cinder stone]

I've never met a demo or playtest or shareware or anything of the sort before that wouldn't save its settings after this long

[tranquil flame]

Hope they fix it soon

[jovial wren]

you know instead of arguing with random people, you could put it in the suggestions channel, and maybe not be an asshole

[crude flower]

hold both hands, swing mouse left and right really quick lol

[sacred compass]

yeah and aim for the head

[cinder stone]

oh you're one to talk

[hasty flame]

tried that, its super stupidly sluggish

[smoky quail]

hold down LMB and RMB and start frantically swaying your mouse side to side

[jovial wren]

what the fuck does that mean lmao

[crude flower]

nah i do get ya with that. i'm not a gaslighter like these silly fellas

[languid nest]

I bullied this man with leg and ball kicks

[snow gulch]

you dont, you kick

[stark lava]

I should turn up my sensitivity

[dreamy escarp]

yeah i get you these people are just acting pretentious

[spice relic]

https://tenor.com/view/unspeakable-violence-unspeakable-violence-poke-slapping-gif-14451091994871827607

were do u get fight pit?

[dreamy escarp]

alr imma go sleep its 5:25 am for me in the morning

good night yall

[hearty relic]

kinda feels like it yeah

[jovial wren]

go to store page for half sword and click request access

[stark lava]

What the actual fuckkk i still can’t do anything with the gore its just lines of blood and im hitting as hard as i can

[gilded veldt]

dude this update is fucking awesome i just kicked someones feet so they'd fall down and chopped their face off

[crude flower]

get good robot

[gilded veldt]

oh my god i love this update

[last geyser]

is there any reason why everytime i want to exit to menu i cant close the game and am forced to shut off my pc to exit the tab

[gilded veldt]

the update isnt optimized fully yet, they're working on it

[last geyser]

ok

[astral fog]

Have you tried hitting windows key and closing it that way?

[vapid hull]

nice pfp :3

[stark lava]

:3

[vague surge]

Alt + Windows key, open new desktop, open task manager and close game

[jovial wren]

alt + f4 closes game

[thorn kite]

how the hell do i aim this sword

[lusty blaze]

managed to delete willies neck while having is head still being 100% connected

[fast osprey]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_thKjmlQuc

[jolly gorge]

is it just me that grappling at the homeless level is just harder

[thorn kite]

i just swing which i mean works but i wanna actually use it

[lusty blaze]

for me no, but I dunno. let's just say my grappling method aren't traditional...

[fathom crypt]

Just to clarify, there's GORE now right?

[smoky thistle]

the kick is so much fun when the settings are set to high damage

just shin kick, they fall. then the beatdown

[jolly gorge]

i grab em feet and apparently the previous version willie wouldve already been flying

now i might resort to wrist throw

[lusty blaze]

in normal I kick hobo willie while grabbing him so he can't drop from pain.

[spice relic]

thank u!

[stiff belfry]

no

[hard crest]

Holy Crap this update is amazing

[keen hearth]

Hey, does anyone know how to fix the issue with mouse in playtest going over to a second monitor when turning? Im in full screen and I have no other applications running in the background

[stiff belfry]

everyone here is just really good at photoshop

[lusty blaze]

per game I kick him 20 times

[smoky thistle]

its a fun strat

[fathom crypt]

Just having a hardtime dismembering people, sorry its a genuine question

[jolly gorge]

but rn its just a medieval mma game and i love it so much, sending kicks into their face

[hardy violet]

Anyone know how I get the "creator" role?

[wind charm]

https://youtube.com/shorts/IIpeop133NI?si=j6cB7v5cV327TpEk

They cannot stop me 😈

[smoky thistle]

a head kick while willie is on the ground is another greaty strat

[lusty blaze]

indeed, also what I do when they grab me, I grab their head and start caving their face in their head... see, usefull

[sacred compass]

Polearms are really effective at dismemberment

[fast osprey]

have you figured it out? i want one as well

[sour path]

i love constantly suggesting obscure polearms

[lusty blaze]

indeed, or just a kick to make him back up

[sacred compass]

With default damage I kept accidentally cutting off legs and 1 time even the dude was cut in half

[sour path]

voulges especially

[sacred compass]

I tried the 2 handed axe but there's some really weird thing where on the overhead 1 hand drops and makes the axe worthless, which is new this patch

[lusty blaze]

which? the expensif or the poor

[sacred compass]

It'd otherwise be extremely effective as well, I could reliably 1 shot anyone with the axe pre patch

[worn heron]

Send me your channel, I'll take a look when I am not very busy
@hardy violet

[sacred compass]

The expensive one but the poor probably has the same bug, 2 handing a 1 handed axe does too

So yeah, use the voulge

[lusty blaze]

weird I don't have that glitch, I main both axes and my overhead is still very powerful

[spare rune]

why dis blood look worse then the demo😭

[calm ivy]

Gillette sells axes!

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/j8L330E8Ivjo5B7Kg?invite=cr-MSw3cEgsMjY1MzE2ODc2LA

[cobalt vault]

when no gore update?????

[fast osprey]

has anyone managed to split their enemy in half perfectly?

[jolly gorge]

me

[fast osprey]

thats awesome

[gilded veldt]

thats rough man

[frail forge]

fist play goes hard

[shy fossil]

stabbed this guy directly in the face after I hit him in the head

[spare rune]

why is it so hard to dismember, I have it on the lowest body density and highest bone snappin

[strong lark]

is there a road map

[jolly gorge]

i know how to grapple and takedown like khabib now

[jolly gorge]

prob weak slash or the game not registering it

[thorn kite]

first time trying to grapple ending up winning like this lol

[stoic sedge]

Willie visits london

[stoic sedge]

stop the Willie bully...

[thorn kite]

trying to learn to grapple

[lusty blaze]

it's the third time today that I spawn weaponless

[stoic sedge]

are you using the 2hand axe?? happened to me a few times

[cobalt vault]

i thought th egore would be my favorite part but the kicking is so good

[lusty blaze]

first time: hand axe shield
second time: great sword
third time: 2 handed axe

[shy fossil]

Willie bit onto my axe, i think he's trying to eat it

[stoic sedge]

Willie blackface!!! cancelled by pope and fired from his monastery

[jolly gorge]

muay thai willie

[thorn kite]

I just dragged this guy while kicking his head i feel like i committed a warcrime

[shy fossil]

uh, he bit a lil too hard

[jolly gorge]

i think thats plausible

[thorn kite]

def torture or somthin

[jolly gorge]

there should be mma willie league

[stoic sedge]

fr kicking just made fisting so much more interesting.... wait

[thorn kite]

lol ayo

[long cosmos]

ok wt

[twilit yarrow]

WHAT THE FUCK

[lusty blaze]

fist play... fist play... FIST PLAY

[stoic sedge]

MEDIEVAL DIDDY PARTY

chat its over... the guards found 1000 bottles of herbal essence in the king's castle...

wait ai willie can grab now? im the one on the right

[frail forge]

makes me wish you could break bones by hyperextension

then the real grappling would begin

[jolly gorge]

there should be slow mo mode ngl

or sandbox mode so we can do cool photos or cinematic poses

[radiant surge]

Isn’t there one already?

[long cosmos]

this is REAL grapling

[frail forge]

i dont think arms are supposed to bend that way

LET ME DO ARM BARS

[jolly gorge]

we getting martial arts in halfsword before full release

[stoic sedge]

upvoteeeee

[shy fossil]

wtf? I just started a new fight and my hand fell off

[supple gust]

is anyone able to explain why i keep fighting sukuna

like i get hit once by a greatsword and then im suddenly cut in half twelve ways with a reverberating slash 😭

[gilded veldt]

you can kick up really high if you look all the way up, start to crouch, and then kick and stop crouching

[stoic sedge]

my! exquisite

[olive forum]

I've noticed a lot of my FPS drops come from I believe bleeding? Has this been mentioned?

[copper gulch]

whoops

[gilded veldt]

yup, a 3d droplet had too many triangles
theyre fixing it

[olive forum]

lmao

[pallid harness]

yo

[stoic sedge]

HAHAHAH I DID THE SAME THING

[pallid harness]

ahahahaha

[gilded veldt]

they intended to replace it with a graphically better one that doesnt deal such a number to the fps

[stoic sedge]

NUGGET

bruh this is no longer fist play, but foot play. wait...

[olive forum]

I like the idea of 3d blood particles but I did notice them looking... a little cartoonish. It makes it even funnier knowing one is just destroying the FPS also

[gilded veldt]

specifically the ball with the x
there was a shit ton of triangles and vertices on it

[jolly gorge]

whats willie doing down there

[gilded veldt]

it certainly does a number on the fps

[supple gust]

i think i cut off more than his ear

[long cosmos]

i love how clothes bend with blund obxects

[jolly gorge]

i think i just invented roundhouse kick for willie

[shy fossil]

bro got uppercut by an axe, lost both his eyes.

[bleak portal]

Hey uh, how do you parry?

[obtuse heart]

What i love about the update is that it introduces the denting of armor bruh its SO COOL

[supple gust]

clash your weapon into the other weapon
(its a defensive maneuver)

[bleak portal]

sounds...difficult

[obtuse heart]

you make a slight movement of your weapon when you swing, effectively blocking the strike

[fair zephyr]

i found a new grappling technique

[obtuse heart]

in other words, just move your weapon a little bit to the left or right etc to block and then just attack

[fair zephyr]

grab em and spin them like they mario 64 bowser

[bleak portal]

So move weapon to the direction of their attack, then attack?

[fair zephyr]

they give up after

[obtuse heart]

yes lol it is just literally like swinging your sword but dont move it THAT much

[fringe raptor]

my god i just stabbed a pregnant man

[bleak portal]

or so basically you're gently smacking away their weapon?

[obtuse heart]

yes

[supple gust]

yes

[shy fossil]

only one blow landed this entire fight

[bleak portal]

cool

[jolly gorge]

W

[bleak portal]

how do you know you succesfully parried btw?

[fringe raptor]

false alarm. fuckin faker

[shy fossil]

you're not dead

[gritty seal]

is it just me or do the low tier farmer weapons not dismember at all, and they also feel super dull unless you're swinging them really hard, if that makes sense

[obtuse heart]

it doesnt hit you and hurt you lol

[gilded veldt]

what do yall think of my best photos?

[supple gust]

willie posessed this man

[shy fossil]

holy shit, i cut off this entire face

[supple gust]

looney toons dent

[bleak portal]

I'm more stumped by the blunt damage nerf than anything lol

honestly fights in full harness vs clothing is so ridiculously different- in full plate its literally just flailing around close range lol

[uneven trout]

i bet that tastes good

[stoic sedge]

me after taco bell

[jolly gorge]

i love mid armor level cuz i can still be a finesse swordsman and cut my opponent or just duke it out like a british dad

[coarse hemlock]

do any of u guys know about when the devs are gonna fix the blood faces bug

[versed wadi]

So the playtest still doesn't save settings after exiting the game. Will this be fixed anytime soon so my eardrums don't burst when I launch the game? 😂

[bleak portal]

the gore is something else

[bleak portal]

Crosshair doesn't work :(

[obtuse heart]

look at this

[versed wadi]

That too, I was kinda hoping that would be fixed with the gore update x_x

[supple gust]

did a fatality on this guy lmao

[long cosmos]

holy

[bleak portal]

lord almighty

[obtuse heart]

i cleaved his face off and he died and stayed in that position

[stoic sedge]

vlad the impaler really said "its impaling time" and just impaled

[jolly gorge]

the red mask willie

[fair zephyr]

deadshot willie

wait no

Robin willie

[stoic sedge]

the new blocking is so exquisite

[long cosmos]

face says it all

[stoic sedge]

looks constipated

[gaunt sapphire]

chat is he dead yet???

[versed wadi]

I love the spikey boy. Look at the facial bruising too, I am loving this

[obtuse heart]

i managed to give this a dude the uppercut of his life and he knew he had to beg for mercy

[chilly mica]

Is anyone else having the problem where the top half of the body always keeps the entire torso even if the other half is completely missing?

[fair zephyr]

uhhh what did i do to this man

[stoic sedge]

idk put a few more on him just for good measure

[stoic sedge]

fistplaying

[bleak portal]

man an NPC with a buckler and a sword is my worse nightmare for a longsword rn

[gritty seal]

the axe throw at the end though

[jolly gorge]

willie growing beard

[stoic sedge]

Sir cumcision's knighting went horribly wrong

[stoic sedge]

middle age divorcee

get it cuz middle age and middle ages

[jolly gorge]

bro gave willie his first hair dye

[rustic plinth]

kicking the head with a running start will crush the other persons skull immediately

took a long time to paint his face red though'

[long cosmos]

what in the world is this comp

[stoic sedge]

oh man i tried that, kicked willie in the nutte sacke

[frail forge]

exceptional violence

[stoic sedge]

knee surgery

[rustic plinth]

one time me and the other guy headbutted and it cracked my head open

[gritty seal]

elon musk ass jump

[rustic plinth]

like my face was pouring blood

[frail forge]

i'm getting good enough in fist play where i can just knock bro out with a left hook

[stoic sedge]

master fister

[rustic plinth]

medieval MMA simulator

[stoic sedge]

medieval fisting simulator

[bleak portal]

should i just set the target tracking to max? Feels like my guy loses tracking if the enemy so much as moves

[rustic plinth]

the kicking is just so brutal

[jolly gorge]

gave him a smooch

[jolly gorge]

bro is muhammad ali

[stoic sedge]

YO what have i created

[gritty seal]

it sucks though when you target the wrong person w/ that, and just end up exposing yourself to the guy you wanted to hit

[gaunt sapphire]

dynamic slashing was the most peak feature half sword could add

[rustic plinth]

jiggly head

[supple gust]

if someone could manage to cut a person in half vertically it would be the peakest of peak

[coarse hemlock]

u can

[rustic plinth]

you can cut heads vertically

[jolly gorge]

berserk ahh cut

[coarse hemlock]

.

[supple gust]

havent seen it yet

[coarse hemlock]

oh

[bleak portal]

Fair,

it still feels like the whole parrying thing is completely random ngl

[bleak portal]

oh hey my favourite strat

[rustic plinth]

i have the parrying down but i also have 18 hours so it should probably be made easier

[gaunt sapphire]

what the hell is parrying

[gilded veldt]

still my proudest clip of the update

[shy fossil]

willie hug

[gaunt sapphire]

is it like hitting enemy's weapon
im pretty sure its callled countering though

[obtuse heart]

awwwww

[obtuse heart]

when you counter, it opens up for a riposte

[gilded veldt]

wrong thing lmaoo

[obtuse heart]

[rustic plinth]

sound design is still top notch

second best part of the update

[bleak portal]

Oh yeah, swinging downward. I swear the game makes you swing 90 degrees to the right if it feels even so much as a tilt

[jolly gorge]

nice leg tattoo

[gaunt sapphire]

complicated sword fighting words

[gilded veldt]

oh yeah, my favorite part of the update was the sound design

[gilded veldt]

even with lowest sensitivity, its so sensitive

[rustic plinth]

i gave him the joker smile before chopping him to death

[stoic sedge]

yes omg i can never get a good vertical cut

[shy fossil]

he pushed his face into my sword

[gaunt sapphire]

vertical cut seems to be way better in first person

[gilded veldt]

done that a few times

[rustic plinth]

one time i parried a guy with a big axe and he accidentally ate my sword

[timid estuary]

i love the gore

[rustic plinth]

thats more like 2 face

[timid estuary]

but my pc doesnt

[gilded veldt]

third image is so happy!!

[obtuse heart]

real

[stoic sedge]

Willie why so serious

[obtuse heart]

whoops not that mb

[supple gust]

quarter of his face is off

[smoky quail]

is the one handed axe treated as a blunt weapon now?

[coarse hemlock]

apparently theres a lot of faces in the 3d blood models

[shy fossil]

bro became the joker

[smoky thistle]

same kinda

[gaunt sapphire]

is weapon disappearing on spawn an old bug

[timid estuary]

my pc could handle high graphic level,but now only medium

[supple gust]

yes

[warm elk]

i stabbed his armpit

[gilded veldt]

never happened to me

[gaunt sapphire]

seems to happen because of low fps

[rustic plinth]

we need a tad bit more optimization, but if they had that they could literally just release it into early access rn with a few other maps and a roguelike mode and i would buy it faster than anything ive every bought before

[bleak portal]

oh yeah is it possible to customize your dude

so far i've been spamming the class to get the weapon i want lol

[supple gust]

performing reverse cursed technique

[smoky thistle]

have blood set super low, gets you a decent fps boost

[gilded veldt]

thanks, good information about my error half sword!

[smoky quail]

can this idiot stop screaming and actually try to fight, bro still has 1 arm left

[shy fossil]

that's my body, not the willie's

[frail forge]

straight up anime punch

[rustic plinth]

i can run the game very well at max settings with default blood, its just when i turn willy into minced meat my fps also turns into minced meat sometimes

[frail forge]

gore isn't optimized

[long cosmos]

not a single drop of blood on a sword

[rustic plinth]

yeah its only around the head area where is lags

[gaunt sapphire]

i really wonder if its gore thats lagging or blood, i dont see how either could cause THAT much lag

[gilded veldt]

genuinely what happened

[coarse hemlock]

i wonder whats below ur feet

[bleak portal]

Gore's most likely the contender

[frail forge]

chris rock'd this fool

[gilded veldt]

a model for blood had too many polygons

[gaunt sapphire]

CRUSH!

[rustic plinth]

did your head explode 💀

[warped apex]

He threw me against a wall

[stoic sedge]

keep my wifes name out yo...

[supple gust]

we got minos prime in half sword before gta 6

[dusty sky]

Headbutt

[warped apex]

he had the strength of 100 men, I'm but only a martial arts practioner

[frail forge]

https://tenor.com/view/will-smith-chris-rock-jada-pinkett-smith-oscars2022-smack-gif-25234614

[rustic plinth]

one time i accidentally headbutted so hard i got brain damage and my head started pouring blood

[proud needle]

is there any specific way to parry or do you just have to move your sword around?

[supple gust]

why does this have smoke LMAO???

[dusty sky]

it happens every time

but its actually a really good weapon

[frail forge]

because he's so DIRTY i slapped the DIRT off his FACE

[rustic plinth]

the foot is the best weapon

[dusty sky]

i prefer the headbutt

[supple gust]

there should be a fun mode where you use your legs instead of your hands

[rustic plinth]

use momentum with the kick and it will turn willy's head into mush

[fluid remnant]

What's the button to kick anyway?

[dusty sky]

im gonna master the arts of headbutt

[rustic plinth]

space

[smoky thistle]

oh and for those who care, the loadout mod still works on the updated playtest

[fluid remnant]

W

[stoic sedge]

why is it that sometimes a hand just pops out and fall on the floor but all the willies hands are still there

[dusty sky]

that exists?

[fluid remnant]

Because the update just came out and it's still buggy asf

[smoky thistle]

cut limbs having a copy is a bug

[silent gorge]

blood is goated

[azure swift]

Falchions/Cleavers seem to have some sort of vorpal force to them where they sliced through you despite having sometimes not a joule of momentum or force applied to them, I'll make a proper bug report once I get some recording of stuff in

[fluid remnant]

Since the cutoff points are dynamic I assume it has to do with registering it wrong

[azure swift]

Axes have a similar problem, I feel like it might be connected to blade width or something

[silent gorge]

leg shots are super great now

[smoky thistle]

i wish there was a slider for how easy dismemberment was to achieve. it happens much more often than i would like. But overall best version of halfsword yet imo

[azure swift]

Yea, abdomen slices and slicing the legs is really effective rn

[stoic sedge]

back shots too, wait...

[silent gorge]

it feels great decapitating hands off of armored guys (and spearmen)

[smoky thistle]

thrust is goated if you can pull them off often

[gaunt sapphire]

dagger thrust my beloved

[proud needle]

wrestling with bro

[azure swift]

Upping the body density slider in game settings helps but don't slide it up to the max or stuff will stay in place even when slicing fully through though this may also be a bug cuz playtest 🤷🏽‍♂️

[smoky quail]

average Willie moment

[stoic sedge]

soon we'll have willie jumping off top rope and rkoing

[smoky thistle]

ooh, good to know about maxxing it

[proud needle]

i hope

[smoky thistle]

oh yeah, max body dens is wierd. a touch lower feels way better

[light storm]

HOW IS THIS GUY NOT SURRENDERING YET ITS BEEN 2 WHOLE MINUTES WITH THIS SWORD STUCK IN HIS CHEEK 😭

[stoic sedge]

built different

[gaunt sapphire]

i just punched how did that happen 😭

[smoky thistle]

kick his head

[obtuse heart]

i did that earlier

[light storm]

how

[long cosmos]

max as in lowest posible?

[smoky thistle]

spacebar

[rustic plinth]

spiked spear is still overpowered

[timid estuary]

idc that i have lags with the gore, i will play half sword no matter what

[light storm]

dang

[stoic sedge]

this

[smoky thistle]

No. To the right, but not all the way

[timid estuary]

the kicking is kinda useless ngl

[supple gust]

imagine the pain willie has felt for people trying to do executions and they end up hitting his spine

[shy fossil]

finishing stab under the chin

[smoky thistle]

me fr

[fluid remnant]

Nah it's great, but you need to actually grab for its best usage

[supple gust]

it's funny cause hitting people in the nuts push them back

[fluid remnant]

Grab --> kick, kick, kick is a great way to get advantage

[robust hedge]

my lord

[smoky thistle]

Vertical slashes are so hard to do, the smallest deviation and it flops

[robust hedge]

kicking is an unholy move i love it

[timid estuary]

rip pc(no)

[azure swift]

https://tenor.com/view/kamen-rider-saber-saber-gif-15707876071344240636

[smoky thistle]

kicking is really funny with damage set to highest. Break thier shin in a few kicks then stomp them out

[robust hedge]

just try get your enemy off balance then kick them in the kneepit

[gilded veldt]

is this a good picture?

[azure swift]

Now we wait for the Kamen Rider Saber mod to have a sword wielding Rider with Rider kicks

[long cosmos]

bone craking to max?

[timid estuary]

i would lag alot ngl]

[azure swift]

Has a horror vibe I like it

[light storm]

too bad you cant blow up your opponents head like in the demo

[smoky thistle]

yeah that helps

[silent gorge]

grabbing guy and knocking them out will pummel

[gilded veldt]

the background blur carries this tbh, im only on high when i used to be on ultra

[silent gorge]

its knee surgery surcceess

[rustic plinth]

what the hell happened

[timid estuary]

do u have lags with the gore too?

[azure swift]

Bone shattering will probably get a rework since I don't think that procederual slicing will be for bony bits all throughout

[bleak portal]

can't parry for the life of me, Longsword thrust and scoot works best

[smoky thistle]

sprint kick to the face is so brutal

[silent gorge]

yeah currently it feels like cutting through paper

[light storm]

everyone does

[gilded veldt]

yeah, its because one of the models was strangely high poly
they're fixin it

[azure swift]

I was born with paper bones

[fluid remnant]

I feel like bruising was implemented too heavily, esp for punches

[azure swift]

Yea the bruise marks are too big honestly

[fluid remnant]

Like, when does a guy get over half his face bruised over from a single punch?

[smoky thistle]

its a good proof of concept though

[azure swift]

Turning a guys face purple with a haymaker does feel satisfying

[fluid remnant]

It is, yeah, though I do hope they turn it down slightly or implement a slider next update

[timid estuary]

i kinda dont care abt the lag, the game is still fun

[gilded veldt]

fr

[royal venture]

Agreed.

[stoic sedge]

folks will there be more characters other than willie

[silent gorge]

door shieldmen are downright vicous nowadays

[light storm]

overhead attacks are so easy to pull off now lol

[light storm]

actually

[fluid remnant]

Honestly I feel like shields are in a good place right now. No longer OP offense weapons, but also with how much deadlier swords and especially axes are, having a shield to block those hits is way better

[azure swift]

Low armor longsword fighting is the best way to play tbh, High stakes and learning the longsword helps with a lot of other weapons

[candid turtle]

bro got thrown 😿

bro got thrown again

[gilded veldt]

is my fov low?? this looks unusually low

[fluid remnant]

It is yeah

[rare turtle]

It seems the new update is not as bloody as previous versions.

[light storm]

yeah

[gilded veldt]

wtf im on normal fov why does it look so bad

[rare turtle]

I still prefer the old map style

[mental pebble]

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/j8N6bWJyMsWMlAvLA?invite=cr-MSxSZjYsMjE5ODUwMDIs

[robust hedge]

It seems as if kicking is the best fight ender

[mental pebble]

BROOOO WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPENED

[fluid remnant]

Yeah a kick to the head is pretty much a guaranteed win on someone without a helmet

[robust hedge]

Yea the gore seems toned down and idk how i feel about it

[gilded veldt]

ender?! like.. ender dragon!?!?

[timid estuary]

remember how fun it was to chat yesterday?

[light storm]

rate /10

[fluid remnant]

Which tbf is how it should be

[cerulean needle]

Momentum into kick will knock out someone in a helmet

[robust hedge]

If you can manage to slash someones leg then kick it

[gilded veldt]

DAMNN

[timid estuary]

waiting for the update

[candid turtle]

guys use a one handed axe in tier 2, lodge it in a willie, then holster it its so funny

[mental pebble]

10/10. I GOT SOMETHING SIMILAR TOO!

[robust hedge]

they're down so then you can kick them in the chin and kill them

[rare turtle]

I feel it is quite fake

[gilded veldt]

i NEED to know what filters you used

[mental pebble]

@light storm

[rare turtle]

I find it more fake

[robust hedge]

Yea the blood doesnt look as good, looks like fruit punch

[gilded veldt]

holy shit i keep looking back at this

[light storm]

i just turned up saturation intensity and increased the red saturation then turned down the brightness then increased the tint

[gilded veldt]

that might be the single handed best photo of this game i have ever seen

[smoky thistle]

im sure they will improve the look of the blood and gore

[light storm]

wow thanks

[robust hedge]

[rare turtle]

I like the gore of the old version and the old map to fight bosses bla bla

[robust hedge]

mmm tasty ketchup

[candid turtle]

he truly has no remorse

[candid turtle]

what the fuck

[azure swift]

There's always room to port things from the demo to the playtest, I'm not sure why you guys act like things aren't in flux and won't be changed or improved upon in the future

[rustic plinth]

found another issue (i have a 4070ti btw)

[robust hedge]

Im not acting like that? im just stating it looks faker than the demo and I hope they find a way to fix that

[gilded veldt]

i tried but i dontthink i can replicate that
fire ass image!!

[dreamy rampart]

Sliced a guy in half with one swing 💀

[rare turtle]

I think the game should create a demo map and an arena map for you to choose from.

[dreamy rampart]

[azure swift]
