kinda like driving a fucked up car
it takes alot of practice to actually fight with that disability though
i tried but it never seemed to do anything
bro just couldn't get verticle and always landed on the injured foot making getting up even harder
imagine your 2 front tires are all the way right and you have to steer left hard but not too hard cuz then youlll slipp to far to the left
and if it happens you cant stand anymore try to nick their leg and grab them
your character will still try and get up so you can get ontop of an enemy and since you cant punch while laying down you kind have to have enough energy to lift your upper body up
ground fighting is very hard in this game
very rewarding when you actually get em
in full suit combat anyway
which makes your character even heavier and more boat feeling
like driving in gta 4 kinda sorta idk, the physics are nice
i enjoy hammer
buckler disarm 
Just got the game playtest yeasterday and i keep seeing people do a 1v4 but the only gamemodes i see are 1v1, 1v1v1v1, 3v3 and the hunger games type one is it in the itch.io version?
The 1v4 is part of tier 7
Random location
You'll just get it as you go
Tier 7 and 8*
Oooh thanks i didnt really play with the higher tiers cause my monkey brain felt like i was hitting a stone with a stick when i tried to mace an armoured enemy🙏
yeah, some modes are locked behind tiers
Yee you gotta go for head and non-armored parts on tier 7/8
when did they let u take the skin off peoples faces? just cut a guy and his skull was on show
Blood update.
i thought that was just blood and dismeberment, but thats cool
i love it
could use some help
wont let me play the game
when i try to pick a gore level it doesnt let me
it shows im clicking it and goes nowhere
One sec
Bug: Stuck on gore selection menu. When booting up the game nothing happens when making a gore selection.
Solution: Clean reinstall
Delete all files relating to the half sword playtest existing in your local files. Be sure to back up your screenshots folder if you took any!
Navigate to and delete the Half Sword Playtest folder located in the following directory.
C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common
Navigate to and delete the Saved folder located in the following directory.
C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\HalfSwordUE5
Finally, reinstall Half Sword Playtest.
E and q
alr ty
Q not a
thanks boss ill give it a go
whoever survives The Great Willie Bashing gets to fight me
Incredible
stabbed
/spice i love the arm shield
how do you guys counter the pitchfork
dont walk straight at it
i love using the short axe but whenever i go against a pitchfork i cant do much
i play so aggressively sometimes i just jump straight into my enemy's weapon
genuinely feels so good to take your opponent's head in this game
man sometimes we can give the nastiest left hooks
first person can be kinda fun
hi i have a azerty keyboard how can i change the binds to azerty ?
i dont think you can
there's no way to change them to different keys
i can like get the motions down when i do them slowly but hte moment i try to go fast enough that they actually have some force behind them i just fuck it up horribly 💀
Your best option at the moment is to directly change your keybinds via steam. Id lookup a tutorial on how, it can get a lil complicated
when i try to do it against ai either i swing early and miss or i dont have time to swing because the AI just Leeroy Jenkins me and it turns into a slog cause i can get far enough away to actually hit them proper
this is infuriating
what the fuck is this
its so fucking stupid but legendary at the same time
heres the link to it
question: is procedural cutting in the playtest currently?
LMFAO I DIDNT EVEN NOTICE
yes
how is the helmet not ruining ur vision
one helmet is like that
not sure which one though i dont really pay attention to em
most do ruin vision though
greatswords are a nightmare to use
im done with this for now i cant get my swings to fucking work
the one i use is even heavier and longer than the usual bog standard ones
half of the time i miss and hte other half its like im just giving the guy a little tap
hammers are so like 50/50 on whether or not they will act like they have weight
its a wonky game bro instead of complaining just go play and get better
i got a nice swing into the guy, no loss in speed whatsoever so it should have just dropped him right away and it just like tapped him
I get that too
there is def a ram leak problem
it wasnt meant to be an insult
My game starts lagging after 45 mins i have to restart
its like every time i get used to swinging and shit and i go to actually fight a guy all of the sudden my arms turn to jelly and my game decides that suicide is infact the answer
Does anyone else think the AI in spoilance mode grabs too much
like someone will grab me and not let go the entire round
even if hes getting clobbered by someone elese
like i train in the little dummy arena for a bit to get used to the little switcheroo swings and once i think i got them down i move on to fight the ai
i am going to take a break i think my anger is making me fuck up
I just watched 2 ai grab each other and start spinning
fr 😭
🚫 hmanofmen, that command is disabled in this channel.
every match i play either ends in a crash or me and the ai right up against eachother just kicking and wildly trying to hit eachother with our weapons at point blank range 💀
or once in a while me getting a nice swing and ending it in 3 seconds
When we will play with our friends ??(multiplayer)
sorry for my bad english im french Can
so i accidently swapped something in the settings and now i can't start the game
me i have to uninstall the game beacause he dosnt want to open anymore
i reduce the damage multiplier in the settings for longer fights
you can remove all four of their limbs and they would still be alive if youre careful
good to know
Its taken from a manuscript
if you read the FAQ there is not going to be multiplayer for a long time. They are developing a single player more
thanks for the answer
It's a shame this game could become so much more popular if you could play it with your friends. This game has great potential
can someone tell me tho
i just tried reinstalling the game
and it's doing the same thing
Try deleting all the files in the game's directory, and verify integrity of game files thru steam properties
That way it'll reinstall the files with factory settings, I think
alr i'll try
i'm pretty sure it will work bc i've done this with other games, thanks tho
Okay, so it didn't work
I personally don't know alot about computers or how games really work or graphics cards and all that stuff
i swapped something in the settings from something with an "11" to a "12"
DirectX?
You can go try and download the latest directX
You need to run it on dx11
yeah i wish i could swap it back but i need to launch the game
Right click halfsword in your steam library, press properties. Then in General there’s a line for launch options. In that line type in: -dx11
hold on let me try that
Bingo
if it doesn't work i'ma try this tho
Yeah it worked
thanks
Enjoy
Is there going to be an online mode eventually?
Possibly. #faq
hey how did he get 2 different tiers of characters here? #photography📷 message
With the loadout selector mod
There’s a few mods on nexus and GitHub. There’s a couple pinned over in #modders-guild-hall
Also if you
'
if you're playing one of the knights theres the choice sometimes to do a 3v3 and the ai can be lower tier
i got a virus cause one of those 😭
It likely was false flagged like many antivirus programs were doing for the Loadout selector mod.
That being said, always mod at your own risk
well it was something like something like "virus:win32/virut"
that infects files to duplicate
I haven't had an issue with the loadout mod.
You would be the first person out of thousands to get a virus from the downloads
but muh panda anti virus told me so!
well it may not have been that then
but its too complicated to setup
where am i chat
All good, like I said there was an issue with false flagging but we had the author publish it on GitHub as well to prove it was clean
What's you guys favoriute weapon so far? Im really enjoying the heavy spear and the small little knife
Doesn't nexus mods have some sort of anti virus scanning program so people cant post that kind of stuff?
the long two handed hammer with spikes on it. It's a very rare weapon to see because for some reason it doesnt pop up reliably. I wanna say t5 or t6
is there a possiblity of this game becoming multiplayer?
sort of? it's not perfect.
GitHub is definitely better cause you can post the source code
At least in my opinion
is dat scythe finna be nerfed
Which scythe?? also what hammer are you talking about with spikes? The poleaxe?
or the war staff
the staff with like a bunch of nails or is there like an actual pole hammer i havent seen
bonk
oh damn he fucked you up
have to aim them,
whatchu talkin bout]
nah it's more when on minimum npc damage they tend to tank everything
stabs don't hurt them really unless you go deep enough (sometimes)
depends on the weapon i guess
im having a blast stabbing people with spears
and knives
nice
this swing is very fun to do
your dpis are so high
Is there a way to view these mp4 without having to download each one
phone user
i am on pc
nvm you're just damned to never seeing videos
yes
must be a setting
you can just watch them normally for us fancy folk
tried it with other hand
i'd wager so
idk theres no embed setting
i remember changing it a lonnnng time ago when i had slow internet but it doesnt seem like an option anymore
skill increased
this happens every so often
in maybe 3 rounds all of the sudden i will forget how to play this game and then i will get upset
or the game will crash in this round
like it just did
Def has a ram leak problem
its every time i get a good swing in 😭
havent played the game in a bit how do you get the updated version with the blood
Just won an unarmed fight after he disabled my arms
Charge tackled and kicked him to death
Just dropped my weapon and won unarmed against a spear lmao
Im on twitch if anyone want to come watch me try to win streak
how/when do we get to arena like area with lots of armor and stuff
request access on steam store page
wish i could share more screenshots in photography. once every 30 mins is slow
u can post screenshots here
hmm. doesnt let me drag and drop
oh u need to interact more to get your level up
gotcha
only takes couple hours of casual chatting usually
my current peak is like 31 i thinks
my sword literally just vanished on my 32nd fight so i died
i went to swing and i dropped it or something idk what happened and it kinda just zooped out of the arena into the sun
im new to half sword, is there a way to have a custom loadout?
i think mods can do it but not in vanilla
are said mods easy to install like on the Workshop?
on nexus, OVRDTH'S selector is kinda easy to install and gives you the ability to save loadouts so you dont need to click through to get to what you want and also comes with a few more ones he made and saved. im pretty sure there are other mods that allow you to make custom loadouts but i dont have em
alright, im gonna have to look into that
do you have any advice for a new player like me?
i just downloaded the QOL mod thers a youtube vid in the moddern guild hall
Its pretty easy to install but you have to make sure you play a round or two before injecting it or it wont work
what does that Quality Of Life mod add?
Can we have the game mode from the demo into the game when it's all done?
I really like that
Oh yeah add a endless mode on the normal game too
#faq they have literally confirmed its going to be in the full game you don't have to ask
Coolio 👍
I def need an endless mode
ouch
He's going to be fine
check out this one
wait its going in photography section
Speared him right in the face. I'm trying to get a thrust in the gut where I can pick them up to get an epic screenshot but spear + body combo is too heavy
When I try to choose level of violence it does nothing when I click any of them. Any ideas on how to fix?
Yo pitchfork is OP
Fr
Go to the store page and look for request play test access
And request
U should get in instantly
If you die in game select your tier in the menu after violence selection. You can keep clicking the same one to get different weapons
will the amazing devs be adding destructible and dent-able armour i wanna be able to take a mace or hammer and smash some armour make it harder to move
ive been playing this game for 4 hrs lmao
I hope so. This physics engine is good. I imagine they do get detailed like that because rn the mace doesn
doesnt feel good. Maybe I just suck with it tho
You suk!
the mace is overpowered wdymmmmmm just press right click and swing for all you would like with more power and if you manage to hit it just right hard enough instantly break their arms
hmm let me try it again
depends on the mace
any blunt weapon works against armour really well
in the tier with no armor i just got sliced up faster than i could hit
some of them are better than others
yeah ive been using 2h pole hammer thats pretty food
and yeah bladed weapons are a bit better until you get to the more heavily armored tiers
by better i mean they're just easier to use
swing wildly
well swords cut extremely easily
i like the knife on a stick a lot iits really hard to use but when you slice their throat from distance it feels great
swing wide but also close like a sword but try and get the hard end to hit the target
check out the photo i took
you have to be very accurate with maces and even then unless you hit them in the head they're probably gonna keep fighting
niice
Do you know what the knife on stick is called
not at all
it has the little edge that you can pierce with too
a shitty stick
yes
in medieval combat the mace was always supirior you dont even have to be accurate every hit on the target will crush bone
we're talking about the game not reality
in the game maces are much more dangerous to use in lower tiers because of how fast bladed weapons can kill you
but the devs have inspired for accuracy also check photos again
its called a Billhook. I like the A variation I havent even seen the B
i have played the game for over 200 hours at this point lol
damn
wait i cant post for 30 mins
i got 4hrs tonight lol
that's nothing compared to some other people here
blunt object trumps sword and spear
just because you CAN win doesn't make what I'm saying not true lol
someone with a longsword is going to be much more of a threat anyway
the mace will break bones meaning less damage they can do its generally overpowered against everything 9x out of 10x the mace or blunt object will win
only if you cant rush and get up close most swords and spears are useless at very close range
bro in this game the swords will cut your leg off with even the slightest contact
you don't know what ur talking about
and a mace will break your ribs at the first contact meaning you cant swing if you dont get off the first swing and your swing doesnt hit flesh if your wearing armour your sword is useless
lol im aware how general medieval combat works. I'm gonna practice with the mace but ive always like longer range weapons more
ok dude
whatever you say
first hit broke arm now he cant swing only stab low
i wish it was easier to disarm willie bc what are you doing in this situation
now do it with the ball mace
SURELY he knows he's fucked if it doesnt swap weapons
bladed weapons are objectively easier to use as half the time the AI will kill themselves just walking towards you, this is not debatable
ez
another hit another disarm
yes it is debatable you can only line up a decent stab every 5th try
I'm not talking about stabs lol
i hope they make this game vr fr after release fr
Danny whats your highest win streak with mace
even just holding out the sword and running at them or letting them run at you barely ever works
i have been afk before and had my opponent die because they walked into my blade
mace supremacy
15 in a row
lol
A mace is a blunt weapon, a type of club or virge that uses a heavy head on the end of a handle to deliver powerful strikes. A mace typically consists of a strong, heavy, wooden or metal shaft, often … a hammer is a mace
bruh thats cope
a hammer is a hammer and a mace is a mace, the semantical argument holds no ground when you can clearly tell that THAT IS A HAMMER
hammer is just a fancy word for mace
i was gonna call you out in the first screenshot but you were chill but He's right. That is not a mace
the blades in this game are too strong when compared to the blunt weapons, switch to a sword and i guarantee you'll win more than 15 in a row
nah it is clearly a spear
show me the hammer in this photo
if mace is truly a synonym for hammer
show me the hammer
ah yeah i should've seen the spike
it's a spear mb
:(
i say this as someone who prefers using blunt weapons in the game
im sorry ☹️
most of the time they're not as effective
the spike on the back thats pointed for the purpose of peircing armour makes it a mace
all of those are hammers
WHICH IS WHAT I ASKED FOR!!!!!
DING DING DING DING
okay he's just trolling
🎊
hammers and maces are not the same
a hammer is a hammer and a mace is a mace, they are similar but different
bait used to be believable
its like calling a halberd and a spear the same thing
i say mace is mace reguardless of hammer i shall dub thee hammer mace
look at that hit wow
bonk
WROOOOOONG there are hammers with specialized features for specific tasks and that doesn't make them NOT hammers
What did he do?
I've learned how to spear
2-handed short spear on top
what?
i do a little emote on his corpse gotta disrespect the mandem
2 clips were one-handed short spear with the shield and 2 clips were 2-handed short spear
oh
if you spam x and swing you can legit emote on people
willie doing his little jig after brutally slaughtering his fellow countryman
After getting a mouse tracker I can finally go the neck lol
mouse tracker what one?
The one that tracks your mouse
hook a brother app is it a website or a phsyical thing
how do i kick
use yours legs
thanks
what if i don’t have legs
Microsoft Powertoys @heady shale look it up on the microsoft store
Did I just push him away slightly then punch him?
ok i downloaded it now what?
check out my last murder video in game footage
@heady shale
both work as the same thing, first option will give you a different color for you mouse depending on which click
ok now what are your settings
Here somethin neat
cool dude
Battaaa suh-wiiiing
Sympathetic muscle movement lmao glad I don't see that much anymore
yellow and smallish dot
I train every day to take yall on in MP one day. and i will take yall down :D
@graceful cosmos I'll meet you on the field and when I do, I'm throwing shit at you lol
Ranged combat is just better
wtf
Bankai
we like to throw stuff round ere
it's very close and personal in first person but I get the meaning behind lol @graceful cosmos
Anyone else enjoy the hammer?
I enjoy the stool, literally crying with laughter beating people round the head with it
guys how do i fix the wide screen thing in halfsword?
The stool is a masterclass weapon
willy #photography📷 message
how DO you go first person?
v
that is so close to the camera button ;-;
why does the barbute cover the entire screen in first person
Willy Seeking Missiles
look at that execution
i just socked 3 knights in full armor in carnage mode with my fists and won somehow
try getting the class with spiked gloves
there are gloves in the game i think third class from top can spawn with essentially knife hands ie pointed gloves on the knuckle
cool
nvm its all there gloves
and general-cat has people moon jumping... where are these hidden keybinds bro 💀
Watch weave and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
Watch vertical split and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
Don't know if that spike is a glitch or intentional, it would be nice to have a loadout selection for 0.5 though, so we can see the range of weapons and pick new/favourites
he didnt even have a chance to recover from his swing
Wait there’s first person?????
2 for one swing
yes press v
Holy fuck this is awesome
post card from the arena
bro the gloves dont change anything
yall...look at my stream and go back like 2 minutes...dummiest shit youll ever se ein this game
cant get up to save my life
litterally
Does anybody else set goals for themselves?
Like:
I have to get at least one successful thrust and cut
One successful grapple
etc
?
I do these to make sure I'm always changing my playstyle and not relying on one trick
in one set or bout
Recently, I've forced myself to do downward swings from the top because I don't normally use those
I usually have my damage taken settings higher than the npcs damage. That way it forces me to play more defensively and try to get clean hits.
I kept my damage at normal and severely lowered the NPC's damage taken so I could get more proper combos
I'll try your method, could be fun
Nah.... i just try to find ways to do more damge from one hit
If I could get any advice from the devs or anything of the sort abt their gore system. I'm trying to make a shooter with some sword combat. Plans are light and slim but any advice would be cherished.
I kinda do the same. Though it feels like boosting npc damage messes with the dismemberment.
Ranged KO
Nice!
Impressive.
Almost got a throwing knife kill but he parried it out
if he didn't hit it, It would've gone into him
I didn’t even think of that
Bro is the real arrigorn
You look like you had a double take.
Did you just swing and press E or Q ?
I did I was like, WAIT A MINUTE
I got a pogo throw
That's not the first kill I've gotten like that either lol
Lol
just threw a sword and took a guys leg off
He felt that
ranged is fun
is there a way to play with camera effects
Need a lightsaber mod yesterday
yes
Mods?
Like camera mode camera?
Embed fail...
I mean reshader mods kinda have the option to tweak settings
willy mogging out
How are you doing that Derp?
doing Hhwat
I would kinda like some sort of berserker sort of option. Tier 3-4 swords and axes shirtless and a basic set of shorts. Big health pool and higher resistance to freaking out at a lost limb
those sreenshots?
Does anyone know if armour/weapon descruction is on the cards? I.e. armour gets deformed, broken etc. each hit
Some of it seems to deform ocassionally. But it seems to be only cosmetic
The devs are huge history buffs. Being so armor works how it was designed too, you can dent armor and damage stamina with blunt weapons/hard enough strikes from most weapons. But unless you're hitting the head or going for weakspots it's probably going to stay as it is. Their goal is historical accuracy.
Cool, and great point! Armour deformeation isnt something I know about and probably using my hollywood lens.. Thanks for the reply
Thanks for reply
is there a list of the planned updates?
I wouldn't know. Look at #work-in-progress
This ain't holywood or anime. A sword's not gonna pierce regular armour unless that armour is reallt shit
why is willy always pointing his sword this way when stabbing
not gonna lie the last like, ten deaths i've had in game were from glitches. blades glitching past the plat armor. somehow insta dying from stepping on a discarded weapon. etc etc etc.
"blunt damage is not bad" kicking at literally any damage breaking bones in question:
and im talking simple kicks, not 360 spin kick to the head type shit
Hes trying to run into you because the thrust we have is terrible!
Can you do that? Does the game multiply force from speed?
you can see plenty of videos of people just doing spinning kicks
Pitch fork, LMB, Thrust and Run.. Pretty fun
how do you all get the fights where you can fight 1v1 without fists or multiple people 0.o
nvm
read description
playtest
can willy for once land his stab correctly
is there a slow mo button
fr gotta run at em 3 times before i stab
Bet thank you
yw
it wont let me run it says virus and theres no option for more info wtf
yeah it says that because the program uses the read/writefile or whatever
its just a temp thing until the dev finds another way to do it or it gets added into the basegame
sometimes ya just need a lil help
Am I the only one that feels that you should be able to at least lift your arms while on the ground?
I might be wrong but I feel like it doesn't change much from how injured or concussed you are
Like if you're on the ground it's obscenely hard to lift your knife and stab
I wish the classes were more defined or just let me make a loadout so I dont have to click 5 times to get the one I want
Super nice feeling slip
How do you play this game moed
i did thta and i have fist play and carnage how do i play the 1 on 1 sword fight thing like yoiu
On the right side of the screen there's squares with symbols in them, those are the classes, you can click on them to generate a character in that class. Click again to get a new set of weapons/armor.
ok thanks
np
real
you can make a loadout
I’m assuming we’ll get a loadout selector before they stop updating the playtest but
who knows
i would love to see a gun mod
even like a time appropriate one
like a flintknock pistol or sum bs💀💀
be funny asl send willie ahh flying
Flintlocks didn't exist in 15c.
why are the screenshots qualitys so bad?
We can have handgonnes or arquebuse tho
The camera mode one?
Hello
hello
hello
This chat dead
hello
Hello fella
I have no idea. Ill ask Kryk he knows the camera stuff
guys, is that normal? while being in brave stand npcs started attacking eachother and ignoring me
Known bug
oh ok
@grand hornet The reason they are bad quality is because you are posting them from the thumbnail folder. Just post them from the screenshot folder
is there a mod that disables kicks
no ....
i am cooking cleanest riposte combo and then willy fucking kicks me
and BREAKS MY LEG
Thankfully you can lower damage to the player overall
out of all max damage to player the most bs is blunt damage
slightest touch and you're dead
You have clearly never been stab nuked
stabs kill you very fast even at min damage
i can live with that
BUT BLUNT DAMAGE....
it cant do damage if it cant hit you 
half sword time
Watch Untitled - Copy and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
it did not swing.
i did not run into it.
it
just
touched me
Foolish boy you fell for his telekenesis
lol
it is not even a single time thing it happens every time
will the playtest recive updates still or we have to wait for full game?
probably will need to wait for early access
about to be my first time in the play test
FEAR THE SMALL METAL SHIELD
best way to deal with a Plançon
yeah
thats how the buckler is
you can take a buckler and hold it out while walking to knock people out
oh thats the restarted shield's name
"OOF"
fuck yo shield
that was beautiful good swing
excuse me?
after i watched it i felt the urge to pee
understandable
its nice to go against other weapons for a change of pace
is it possible to block a sword and in the middle of a block just stab a person
isnt that called a riposte?
Ranged amputation
i guess??
Yes. I have a Clip of me doing exactly that but idk if I will be able to find it
yes its possible, i've done it multiple times
do you mean like block a swing and then respond with one of your own?
like blocking overhead, side it to the left/right, keep willy's sword there and then switch to stab mode
Hammer throw
i couldnt do stab specifically
it is possible although prolly kinda hard
i dont really use swords though
so idk
I hope they add online to this game
agreed, I think its planned
Stabbing is fun, Also in first person
the people demand a loadout editor
It's not
a multiplayer physics-based unity game
the exploits will be legendary
does anyone know why franky refuses to code and implement a loadout editor
the game has had the same (roughly) loadouts since it was on itch and i bet people have wanted a loadout editor the whole time
franky works in mysterious ways 🙏
More important things currently
nothing is more important than my ability to opt out of wearing armor or bringing a weapon to a t9 small buhurt
ngl this is kinda making me wanna use great sword
The game not crashing is 
i must stay with my polearms though
its a UNITY GAMEEEE
THE CRASHES GIVE IT CHARACTER
the weapon may not be the "best" but it defo is the most versatile for most situations
I thought it was unreal
i wanna use it but i gotta continue training polearms
i wish willie had like, one arm day in his entire life so he didnt wield big swords so floppily
Pretty sure it's always been an unreal game 
i really enjoy them and wanna be able to actually use them properly
well
wdym properly
the extent of the technique even historically speaking is just to use the metal bit on the end of the long stick to kill the other guy
it would be more accurate for me to say i wanna learn how to do combos with them
my current method is to just swing wildly and hope for best
what i usually try is to maintain proper distance and just slap them in the head/clavicle
or knees
or use alt-grip and bonk them in the temple with the flat of the blade
yeah i need to learn proper distancing also
how do I send a clip in chat?
you dont
you only joined our discord today, so you need to chat for a while before you get perms
i get it thank y'all
what the fuck is this 

why is it a thing 😭
yk how occasionally the gap in willie's armor is his crotch
that's how swords are made
what is this sticker
i dont even know what to say anymore 💀
the next teaser trailer should have random 1-5 frame rotoscoping
do not question Hungh
prego willie has left me stunned
the ai in npc is unhinged bro i just got 1 2 combod by ai instant knockout i didnt even fall to to the ground
whats the f key do exactly
It locks on to the enemy
or unlocks
oh yeah it's the lockon toggle
also does anyone have any tips on how to learn distancing
win some you lose some
or do i just like keep fucking up until i learn
When circle go small lock on is on and then when hold a mouse button it becomes active
tried to unstuck my pommel without losing control of his weapon and it didnt pay off :c
you just keep fucking up until you learn yeah
well fuck
it's hard to gauge distance with the 3rd person perspective
get a realy long weapon and die over and over until you learn it
time to go die a bunch
i got gojo'ed
generally if your weapon is longer than willie's and willie is starting to swing you're too close
could i use a plancon as training wheels ?
go is dead but jo is stil standing
wdym plancon
You won’t get much better using a guarantee win weapon!
the spikes on side might help with gauging distance a bit better
since my main issue isnt that i cant hit its that i just have issues telling when to swing
everytime im agaisnt a plancon i give up that shit one shots bro
Plancon a picot 🗣️
i hate it
so it seems that i have found my weapon
i swing way too early/late with like literally every other polearm but this lad is like the perfect length
it's because it's heavy, in my experience I just bash the fuck out of people with the shaft of it lol
It's much superior to the pike pole and pitchfork
both of those you just push them to the right and win
I'm doing fine despite my missing torso
its just a flesh would
im stil standing
It’s how Willie reproduces.
the swords in this game feel really blunt and the blunt weapons feel really heavy, I like it, it's like everybody has never heard of a whetstone
hello, how can i get the screenshot perm
talk a bunch
aha thankss
You can also post them in https://discord.com/channels/1043854763189600337/1047194231875321856 without levelling up if iirc. Only if its halfsword related tho
alr alr
willie grabbed me ☹️
is it possible to throw things like spears that would be so satisfynig
why is my game just not bothering to focus on ai willie?
It’s possible but takes practice
And you can’t throw them overhand like a javelin if that’s what you mean
i tried it now i my weapon is out of bounds
throwing anything in this game is like the scenes in the venom movies where eddie just moves his hands very aggresively
"AXE? WE DONT NEED IT!"
all i need is these hands
my does my willie keep holding the polearm like straight up
right in the middle
he holds it right infront of him pointing straight up 😭
i really like the ax but sword seems hard to learn but cool
Because it looks cool
he gets a sword in the ribs
i dont think it is worth it
i love using the handle side of the long candle stick. its got such a deadly spike on it
Well dont do it mid combat silly
how do i not do it
it just happens when i try to switch hands
this man lost foot privileges
it is just a bug?
Yeah
☹️
It does look cool tho
yo i just did a w clip
How old are the tutorials? Some physics changes have happened
i accidently head kicked willy and knocked him out
like idk
a month i think
no 4 months
Yeah the physics has changed since then
oh
You can still do bodyslams its just different now
well im glad i can wiggle willies guts with a pitchfork still
gonna as in gen since its probably been asked before
is an equipment picker ever gonna be a thing ?
i really want to play with the tiny pocket knife all the time
well how do i lift
and is it mostly bugs or mechanic
I dont really know. I havent tried much https://discord.com/channels/1043854763189600337/1244313050174197850 these guys will know
damn willie finally got a good kill on me
most of the time its like he's just flailing around like me lol
Sometimes willie locks in
that's what willie just did. but like an uppercut with his sword
he pulled a vlad on u
New on the game so just needing some help….How do you get armour and wepons to start a fight, it always starts either just fists or Knifes in carnage mode
? Cheers
Click the flashing icons on the right of the main menu
Cheers mate, hero
There is alot. I use Geforce experience. You can use xbox gamebar, medal, OBS, Steam recording and porbably alot more
i use medal\
oh shit game fotage had 2m cooldown have to wait
also how i just made my sick edit in video channel
thanx
thankss
daaamn won my first buhurt. those are intense. those would be fun as hell online
😂
not mine haha
GeForce experience doesn’t always play nice with half sword but every issue with it I’ve seen so far is easily fixable. Most problems can be fixed by opening your Geforce experience app and disabling+reenabling in-game overlay while half sword is open. Let me know if you run into anything
yup i used GeForce before and i uninsalled it, i downloaded medal now!
cool cool, have fun
this is prolly my favorite weapon
its insane
how are you so precesise i cant hit the npc thats on the ground without missing 1000 times
luck mainly
also same when a willie is on the ground i pretty much can't hit em
you guys don't just get better by gaining a good feel of the controls, the physics, and how, where and when to position yourself for strikes?
this has 2 meanings
honestly no not really
cuz that's what I did
i've yet to learn how to actually do things in this game
i just hug them with my sword and make them a 2 piece sandwich
Oh god that's like the most painful way to go
(from the old abyss demo)
not a bad amount o:
i have 7.5 hours
but really, precision/coordination will come naturally
i feel like i should be better than i am considering how much time i've dumped into this game
it's a matter of learning from your mistakes, and staring at the opponent's arms/chest instead of their face
i also feel that that feeling is probably making me mess up more
Playtest and Abyss demo, in that order
do yall prefer the 1v1 without any weapons or with weapons for emprovment
it took me a while before I even started noticing I was getting more skilled
I prefer carnage
i didnt even play the demo ):
try it! it's a riot ❤️
i got like 7 minutes in the demo 💀
especially with the older physics; you can get some pretty funny pratfalls from pulling the density slider all the way up
lemme install it
I love flying into space because my foot has become one with a barrel
I've even noticed that as I kept playing the playtest, I became better whenever I'd switch back to the abyss demo and get further than before
My favorite part about the abyss was hitting someone so hard that the game throws a fatal error
i get that a lot
i get fatal error to in playtest a lot
is there any way to avoid it
popping heads with maces/bonkers in the demo never gets old
No idea, I always thought it was hilarious when it happened
bro i just loaded into a round and it sayed you lost i didnt even fight yet😭
i really enjoy one thing alot, is the knife fights. I think they should be expanded upon or have like all same weapon ina fight
BRO ITS SO ANNOYING WHEN THEY GRAB UU
they beg for mercy while holding into my head
i think this might be my best performance tbh
"Please I beg forgiveness!" meanwhile the npc is grabbing you by the eyes
why did my game start lagging when i launched it and now its unplayably laggy ever since i got it ive never had a single problem or lag with running the game
oh man I still have that vid
It was kind of creepy seeing the head flop back on the stump and roll down the back lol
That poor man's shins are destroyed
i like going for the legs
i kick them in the legs non stop
i go for either legs or ribs
sometimes ill do like collarbone but not as often
also face
i usulay go for the knee and throat combo
i mean if you care about winning i guess but i hate going for the legs personally its just soooo boring
i just like watching the guy trying to stand
they lower their guard when they get hit in the leg
seeing willie try to get up with a chunk of his knee missing is kinda funny to me
I sorta do and don't wish they would react a bit better with their guards to the direction of your weapons' edge. Sorta like how npcs in blade and sorcery do. But I also kind of like half swords npcs
he just keeps flopping over
dude my game is unplayably laggy its never lagged before ive had it for so long never lagged and now its entirely unplayable
mine goes from running pretty normally to just crawling the moment i turn the graphics past high
your pc can't handle the cinematic graphic preset
frankly
I don't think a lot of PCs can
blade and sorcey npcs leaves a lot of openings tho
what does that mean ive had the game for a while it never lagged thats why im confused
Y e a h they do which is why I like half swords npcs too
go check your graphic preset in the game options
try turning the graphics down a bit and see if it does anythin
that
yeah toning it down to medium helped, weird that i played on epic for so long and i didnt have problems til now
did you switch between directx 11 and directx 12 recently?
does me not knowing what those are answer your question
directx 12 uses some kinda software-based ray tracing courtesy of the unreal engine, but that can be heavy on GPUs
oh in settings, never changed it its on 11
nah its not the graphics theres still amssive lag
massive
the lag is still massive
it never fades
no matter how low i set the settings
massive?
YO. i have a great idea. when multiplayer drops we make clans. we train together like in real life (rp) and we have battles
play anvil: empires
this is a dueling game
IM TRYING
Huh?
look above my message 
Oooh, nice, anvil's a good game
still rough, but can be fun with the right group
its been requested for over a month
I had to wait 6 months
You finally arent a silly white role
Mantic and I play every test
you need to level up. Yap more
