[winter wasp]

Gotta be in the top 10 best feelings you can get in HS

Someone should really make a list

[tender quest]

I want would like an option to turn willie into a random flailer so i can better train for if multiplayer ever drops

[winter wasp]

Wonder what #1 would be

[winter wasp]

Would be hard to remove his braincells since he doesn't have any at the moment

but i like the idea

[muted owl]

when halfsword is released will the playtest and demo be renamed to quartersword?

[tender quest]

Imo its when you land a knock out that makes willie stand in place for a bit then he drops to his knees and he does that slow fall over

or landing a perfect counter

[graceful creek]

im the best in the world to this game

no joke

[graceful creek]

ion know

[muted owl]

how so

[graceful creek]

because i can beat all of you if there was multiplayer

[muted owl]

how so

[graceful creek]

huh

[muted owl]

yeah how

[graceful creek]

i know distance and got crazy moves

[muted owl]

you use ranged or close ranged weapons

[graceful creek]

both

[winter wasp]

Would've been so great if he did that here (and if the kick was to his noggin')

[muted owl]

distance doesnt matter if i close it in 2 seconds

[winter wasp]

Was praying he would've atleast fell

[graceful creek]

im mostly talking hand combat

[muted owl]

you do not know of the kick guy

[graceful creek]

huh

[muted owl]

yeah

some guy here mastered the kicking mechanics

[graceful creek]

so did i

i do spin kicks

to the head

[winter wasp]

Hamster do be cracked though

Dunno if you saw but he did a sick kick while jumping from the fence

Can't quite replicate it

[muted owl]

bro is literally superman with some of them kicks

[winter wasp]

[muted owl]

jittleyang or futtletugan

gotta love nearly winning a match only for the ai to cut off one of my legs

[winter wasp]

Or a shield guy rushing at you with basically a full house as defense and offense

[muted owl]

real

for higher tiers halberd is fun

[winter wasp]

Gotta be one of my least used polearms but it is a pretty fun weapon

[muted owl]

I main it in high tiers

you can use it like a spear or like a long axe

and if its the one with the pointed end you can cut into their armpit sometimes

[winter wasp]

R.I.P. Armpit

[muted owl]

spear

[muted owl]

idk if its in the game but if you hit an armpit it should cause them to lose the ability to use that arm

or at least not use it well

[winter wasp]

He definetly had some determination to fight, i'll give him that

Usually after a while they drop their weapon when stabbed in the armpit

atleast for me

This one had some battle spirit in him

[muted owl]

yeah he moves more sloppy after you hit his armpit

mf lodged his hand into my shield

I cant move

[winter wasp]

Can't remember the last time i've played well with the dagger

Probably have a clip buried somewhere, but i'd rather not delve into those depths

[winter wasp]

Gotta love how all those other guys all have blood on their necks

nice ol' neck slashes

[muted owl]

whenever i use it i go british

[muted owl]

that one mf that i cut the arm off of was on my ass

[winter wasp]

Shoulder surgery

[muted owl]

couldnt gain any distance from bro

aand my game crashed

what do you guys listen to while playing? I typically listen to some metallica or deftones

[winter wasp]

Don't listen to anything much here when playing since it messes with the clip's audio, but sometimes i end up dabbling in some tunes either way

https://open.spotify.com/track/6XqaBXXvV5dxNA6bhSu3aS?si=af93f9fd35664378 Last song i was listening to on HS

[teal rapids]

DnB

[winter wasp]

Interesting songs, just discovered the guy a few weeks ago

Vibes work well with HS

[whole parrot]

kickass combo

[muted owl]

specifically i listen to metallicas albums " kill em all " and " and justice for all "

yk what would be a good feature for halfsword? after a match being able to watch it but from the opponents view

[whole parrot]

advanced polearm spinjitsu master vs mere mortal

[muted owl]

why bros arms like that

[whole parrot]

super advanced technique

you wouldnt understand...

[muted owl]

[dense pond]

Pokey pokey

[muted owl]

the one that was holding onto me got his head cut off

[dense pond]

Nice

Deserved

[muted owl]

it was an accident at first but i had to or else i couldnt move

[dense pond]

Fabulous

[dense pond]

I've done that

[muted owl]

WHERES YO HEAD AT AT ATTTTTT

[dense pond]

Bro is gonna die a painful death

[muted owl]

bro grabbed the shield AGAIN

[dense pond]

Kill em

[muted owl]

i hate how the locking system swaps to another guy every 5 seconds

[muted owl]

was gonna swing but bro caught it

[dense pond]

My game crashes often in those modes lol

[muted owl]

specs?

also bro think he gonna win

bro is pissing me off at this point

" my body may be broken but my spirit isnt " head ass

[dense pond]

Running game on epic

i3 12th Gen
32gigs of ddr4
Rx6600
& Ethernet cabled up

[muted owl]

dude I got a 1660 super

you might need to see if you are running halfsword on directx11 or directx12

if its on twelve put it on 11

[dense pond]

What does 12 do

Hypothetically

[muted owl]

its meant for higher quality graphics cards

[dense pond]

It runs great in 1v1 lol

It doesn't lag it just randomly crashes

[muted owl]

put yours on directx11

[dense pond]

Ok alright

[muted owl]

and try doing a brave stand

it will be better

[dense pond]

Yah

I was just curious and decided to turn it to 12 because why not

But I understand fully

[muted owl]

gonna lag more

I got a helldivers 2 mod that lets me run it on directx11 and i get better fps

[dense pond]

My GPU is baller then. Running this stuff and that with reshade on with directx12

[dense pond]

Clean

[muted owl]

its 20 places above mine in terms of speed

[dense pond]

It was 200 dollars more expensive than any other part I bought

I wanted to go good with the graphics card since everything else was budget

[dense pond]

I am not at my computer this moment

[muted owl]

showing you comparison between the graphics card i have and the one you have

[dense pond]

Oooh okay gotcha

[muted owl]

now if you look closely ||his face is gone||

[dense pond]

Oh I see

[muted owl]

mine has better FPS for lighting

yours is better on literally every other thing

[muted owl]

and cost

Im gonna upgrade to an intel B580 tho

@tender quest its ok if I kinda talk about pc stuff here right? prob not going to be talking about it anymore

I heard that's not meant for gaming but I could be wrong

Maybe I'm thinking of the AMD thread ripper

[muted owl]

it has the quality of a 4080

and its 500 bucks

[dense pond]

Aaah okay yeah, I understand now

[muted owl]

yeah

i just gotta upgrade my power supply from 500 to 700 gold or silver

[dense pond]

I think I've got a 650 or 700 gold rated

[muted owl]

nice

im also gonna get plug and play watercooling

here ill send the specs

[dense pond]

But I got an EVGA one that isn't modular and it was so fucking rare

[muted owl]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/f2TZwY

[dense pond]

But I didn't know wtf modular ones meant back then when I was first getting into it

[dense pond]

Nice build there, with room for upgrades

[muted owl]

yeah

sat in a pc help server vc for 3 hours while they talked about the build they made me

that and a guy that had a 4090 in a waterblock that also had a pc build with a radiator

[dense pond]

Lol

Yeah I built mine myself, off of a budget YouTube vid

But later I got a different case

Next build I'm switching to an AMD CPU just for shits and giggles and I'm gonna make it a big one.

[warped apex]

Yes

[lament drift]

[opaque creek]

I will pay 20 dollars for Willie game

[warped apex]

[sleek gull]

Yeah. Somewhere in the range of $40 is the word on the wind

[idle trellis]

When the full game releases will i still be able to play on the playtest

[lament drift]

I have to save my money to afford the Willie plush merch

Whatever it is, just take my money

[idle trellis]

I got a whole fortune of 4$ on steam

[little verge]

Delayed answer........

[signal wedge]

So in regards to ea and potentially release but I understand that's a way off will the folks who participated in the demo, play test or EA get any sort of special piece of armor or weapon?

[sharp island]

release early acces stop teasing us

We have not discussed this yet.

[sour fable]

Very hyped for the coming update. Can't wait for weapon customization. I don't spend a lot of time here, but I'm assuming we'll also be able to edit/choose our armor and clothing?

[signal wedge]

Ah I see, I know some games do that. Would be cool imo

[idle trellis]

My fav weapons in the game are long swords. I need more long swords (praying for a lightsaber)

[thorn oxide]

icl i have about 52 hours on the playtest and even still when i see those things i be looking like

[muted owl]

if its over 20 dollars im gonna have to say i wont be able to get it sadly

[muted owl]

unless it ever goes on sale for under 20

[signal wedge]

I'm hoping to be part of the killing floor 3 closed beta here pretty soon for whatever sick loot they give me for participating

[idle trellis]

I have 24 hours on the playtest

[versed jay]

hopefully it won't be a cash grab game

[thorn oxide]

i lowk destress on this game bro

[idle trellis]

Halfsword?

[thorn oxide]

yh

[little verge]

I have added it to my list of things to discuss at our next meeting.

[idle trellis]

Same

[sour fable]

Usually when something is initially released, it goes on sale on Steam. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I recall that for a few seperate indie games.

[thorn oxide]

the playtest anyway

[signal wedge]

It'll probably be micro transaction infested like kf2 and I'm somewhat worried about the game itself

[signal wedge]

Sweet!

[muted owl]

ok

[idle trellis]

More long swords 🙏🏻

[muted owl]

besides i got a 1660 super, i wont be getting the best out of the game

[wind charm]

Im just replying to clog up your notifications even more

[little verge]

The best tip I can give is control the goedendag with your weapon. I usually force it downward and then I kill them with an upward strike.

[thorn oxide]

i think it would be interesting if there was a bit more of a grappling system, like if you could snap someones neck

[lament drift]

hey man, is multiplayer releasing on half sword soon?

[idle trellis]

How do i unlock image perms here

[idle trellis]

I feel like multiplayer is gonna be frustrating

[little verge]

Our weapon system is modular so you will have more variations then you will know what to do with.

[thorn oxide]

i normally just time my attack until when their recovering from a missed swing but great advice nonetheless 🙏

[idle trellis]

But at the same time i dont like multiplayer games that much

[lament drift]

maybe u have to reach a certain level in this server idk

[clear warren]

multiplayer in this game would be so fun

[sour fable]

Felt that, I was playing the itch.io version on a shittop before I got my new pc. . . Can't imagine what the playtest would run like on that thing

[little verge]

I fucking ||love|| you, you ||sweet man||.

[thorn oxide]

i would love to violently murder my friends (in this video game ofc)

[muted owl]

yeah, but hopefully i can upgrade sooner than later

[idle trellis]

Is willie based off a real person

[little verge]

Nope. It is something we are looking into but it is a low priority at this time. We need to complete the base gameplay loop before investing any resources into MP development.

[idle trellis]

So how can i send photos here

[clear warren]

"thats the neat part, you cant"

[little verge]

Dodging and baiting attacks is the place to start for sure. After awhile you feel confident enough to charge in. Longswords are my personal favorite for taking them out with.

[idle trellis]

Also who made the soundtrack for the game

[lament drift]

ohh okk

Polearms are King. Current iteration can be tricky to learn though. Frank is working to make things more smooth with polearms.

[idle trellis]

Im not gonna ping him (if he is on the server) but if u can tell him, then please tell him that the soundtrack is amazing

[little verge]

I personally prefer the spear but halbred is a close second. Poleaxes I like allot but they make me feel OP.

[wind charm]

facts

[signal wedge]

The halberd is so good

[little verge]

I will forward this message to our fanmail channel and ping him directly for you 🫡

[signal wedge]

although I wish there was a way to trip opponents with it and more of an ability to strike legs

[thorn oxide]

yeah thats what i meant by grappling

Only been playing a couple weeks and have been drooling on the longsword like everyone else but now... now I just want Halberd

polearms are ...

[little verge]

I cannot wait to see what you accomplish when alternate grips is released.

[muted owl]

real, i find them kinda hard to use sometimes with how the ai closes the distance so fast

[signal wedge]

Putting the blade of a halberd behind my opponents ankle and pulling their leg forward would be so sick

[clear warren]

is it just me or is the tip of it like never do anything? Ive maybe made it work like 3 times but half the time it doesnt slice or stab and im wondering if its just a me thing lol

I have encountered this before, there is a known bug with some of the polearms where they noclip on the last foot of the shaft sometimes not registering a hit.

[lament drift]

what the hell does this mean

[mortal sonnet]

ik it’s a lot to ask but if the m00 style of polearm tech stayed in the game in some form give my life to dev team. I just hope they’re aware it exists at least

[worn heron]

just a tip, in the "autofocus" section of the photomode, if you double-click, you can focus in on certain spots and then adjust the blur, can add for some great cinematics!

Why this game doesn't have a modding community

[worn heron]

#modders-guild-hall

[mortal sonnet]

If I ever see the term “half sword influencer” again I’m going to headbutt the business end of a longsword

[worn heron]

about that--

[rocky forge]

I'll influence you to play with my half sword

[stable holly]

influencer smurf

[worn heron]

Modding support is somewhat there? It's just people messing with local files at the moment. Nothing custom like custom weapons and armour yet.

[stable holly]

i just hit a willie too hard with gauntlets and i got a fatal error

[worn heron]

that always goes so hard

[rocky forge]

Hey I've actually had that happen to me before too

I was so excited to get the gauntlets in spoilance, cracked a skull and immediate crash

[winter wasp]

Half-Sword mechanics summarized in one clip

[muted owl]

no the " outhouse " isnt its actual name, its called the warehouse but i made it funny

[little verge]

It can be really hard when you first start playing. I highly recommend using the practice stage and practice making slow circles with your mouse.

You will start to see the different stances and where they change based on your mouse movement. Slight shifts in mouse movement can accidentally move you out of the stance you started in and ultimately changing the swing trajectory.

Quick small flicks of the mouse are often more precise then wide fast movements of the mouse.

[muted owl]

@winter wasp also it is an actual game

[zenith jacinth]

Awesome. Guess I'll have to try that more. Thank you. I've been watching people play and love it. Hilarious.

[winter wasp]

Meant outside of roblox, should've specified

[rocky forge]

Why is the left hook 100x more devastating than any right hand punch

[muted owl]

oh, ok

[little verge]

It truly is the ultimate 'git gud' combat mechanic, it can be frustrating but once you start learning it is very rewarding.

[muted owl]

yeah we prob wont make it outside of roblox

its very funny though, we have a hellfire missile in the warehouse that is teetering on a crate

[little verge]

Left hand dominate people were accused of witchcraft..........

[winter wasp]

That's actually pretty funny

True Gamer Experience right there

[muted owl]

it was right on the top of that crate

What are you playing on

[desert trellis]

what like my specs

or my settings

[naive holly]

Are there any file tweaks you can do to improve performance at all?

I'm so close to running high smoothly lol

Ik the playtest is very unoptimized so I'm not expecting anything, just curious

Also is there any way to tweak something to make it so my blood/gore sliders retain their value between sessions?

[vapid hull]

Turning down graphics and turning down gore

Bomk

[naive holly]

Well yuh 💀

Was just seeing if I could push for High, but medium it isss

[idle trellis]

But gore is the most fun part

[vapid hull]

Hard disagree

I love doing techs and trying to parry

[idle trellis]

[still meadow]

I love/hate the realism of the helmets in first person. What do you mean i can see much except for a tiny slit because im wearing a helmet that covers my face?

[idle trellis]

Ye as much as i love playing in first person i hate it in armor

[jolly gorge]

L

[still meadow]

I only use first person in armor if the helmet doesn’t cover the eyes

[still meadow]

The weapon movement looks so fluid

[vapid hull]

I love billhook

Lmao yeah (I just wanted an excuse to post the clip again <3)

I do like fighting the spiky stick with smaller weapons

[limber mantle]

I am more of a picking up a stool and hitting everyone with it kinda person haha. That's the most fun thing in the game haha

And hammers

[idle trellis]

So uh how do i get image perms

Oh nvm i got image perms now

[vapid hull]

Send clipsss

[toxic shadow]

why in spoilance do you use the hammers like you would on a nail instead of trying to attack with the cross peen?

[idle trellis]

I dont got any yet

I dont even have an app to record clips

[chilly mica]

Guys, I might have fucked up, I tried to get the quality of life mod for halfsword and I might have made it unplayable, it doesn’t matter if I delete all parts of the mod I can find, it doesn’t matter if I reload the game. It doesn’t work.

I am an idiot

[grave aurora]

just reinstall

[chilly mica]

I already did, a few times and it still doesn’t work

Sorry if I sound harsh, I’m only mad at myself right now

[solemn holly]

did you go into the game's folder and delete all the files

[timid imp]

miltus could you take care of something in vc rq

also if you right click on it and go to properties -> installed files, you can click on verify integrity of game files and it should fix your issue

Bassinets?

Please?

WAH WAH WAH

[boreal path]

bascinets don’t fit time period

[chilly mica]

I really hope I’m not stupid, I can’t find half of these

[burnt quail]

how is ur swinging so precise

[lusty brook]

What’s the time frame

[boreal path]

1450-1470

bascinets die in 1420 at the latest

[naive phoenix]

FUCK

My hopes for a Hounskull are dashed

[boreal path]

immensely

[quick drum]

oh lets go another helmet that'll be impossible to see through in first person

[wild citrus]

how do you guys make Willy block overheads consistently with longswords

everytime I bring his sword up in the passive parry box he just, like, swings his sword to the side

[naive phoenix]

Frogmouth moment

[thorny perch]

You dont bring your sword up, leaves you too open for attack or something

You just keep it high

[quick drum]

you're swinging it too far up, keep it pretty much pointed at their face and if they advance to swing they'll get a mouthful of steel

[wild citrus]

I do it like, so that he has his sword horizontal/diagonal at about face-height

[wild citrus]

you can kind of see what I mean in #game-footage-🎮🎥

[vital forge]

how do you get armor and he no?

[thorny perch]

why did you just stand there

Flippin noob

[thorny perch]

He cheated

[lusty brook]

Bassinets really weren’t used then?

[wanton plume]

The one thing I dont like about what we have to play so far is the walking. Your dude gets stuck on nothing half the time and walks like he's a toddler that just figured out he can stand without the help of his parents

[wild citrus]

try holding shift

[wanton plume]

I get it's a physics based game but the movement is infuriating sometimes
Doesnt that juast make you run?

[wild citrus]

you can run in all directions + it lowers your center of gravity, you should pretty much always be holding shift

[naive holly]

Definitely not, but it can seem that way

[naive holly]

Let's you effecive use stances as well to guard and strike more precisely/efficiently

If I'm not mistaken

[wanton plume]

Ahh I always thought it made you run

[naive holly]

It does that too

[naive holly]

Also being able to run in all directions let's you do short little dodges. Like holding shift and tapping S is going to do a quick two-step backwards

Side to side etc.

[thorny perch]

Theyve evolved

Also better alternatives to it

[thorny perch]

Use it to your advantage mannnn

[boreal path]

not at all

apart from grand bascinets

which are pretty much not bascinets

[lusty brook]

Yea when I saw first I was confused why it was called a bassinet

[chilly mica]

Basic google search says last use was 1450, but that could be a bad source.

[boreal path]

correct! it is a bad source

[chilly mica]

Thanks!

[lusty brook]

Do you know why they weren’t used when just a little bit before they were popular?

[boreal path]

better things were produced

[rich sparrow]

Should I make a youtube video on how to get the playtest? Or is it too easy that it would be a waste of time

[boreal path]

the sallet superseded the bascinet as the universal combat helmet pretty entirely

[lusty brook]

What specifically is better about it

[boreal path]

protects the nape

also the visor is lighter weight

more configurable overall, variants are useful for the layman and upper class

[lusty brook]

Cool

[chilly mica]

(Once again I could be wrong) I’ve heard it also had better visibility

[boreal path]

also since aventails basically died out aside from on armets they didn’t require maille to produce, just the helmet and the liner

since you’d be wearing a maille standard and or a bevor

[lusty brook]

And the design was probably more protective of the front of your face and maybe shoulders a little without needing to sacrifice visibility with a visor?

Or as much visibility

[boreal path]

why would it protect your shoulders

[lusty brook]

Like a kettle hat a little bit

Like from above from projectiles

[boreal path]

eh

its mostly just your head and nape

[lusty brook]

Cool

[gloomy tiger]

Theres no multiplayer right? myb if this is dumb question i just got the game

[lusty brook]

There’s not

[gloomy tiger]

thanks i appreciate it

[boreal path]

another advantage of the design is you can tip the helmet upward to have the tail lay against your nape to basically see under the visor instead of through it

[lusty brook]

It is a requested feature though

[gloomy tiger]

do i gotta be a streamer or something?

[lusty brook]

Yea I knew that

[lusty brook]

Wdym

[gloomy tiger]

how do i request access or get granted access to multiplayer

[boreal path]

there is none

[lusty brook]

Not to sound like a know it all

You drew that?

[boreal path]

no

[novel glen]

yeah, it was super fun. Bosses and all that was amazing. maybe we can see a version where you face increasingly difficult opponents and you get your loots from spoilances

how do i make halfsword EVEN more interesting

[weak moat]

its already interesting

[plush thistle]

more

[weak moat]

wait for career mode, maybe it will come soon

[plush thistle]

career>

man i challenge you

[weak moat]

?

[plush thistle]

go from bottom to top

[weak moat]

i played like that before

[plush thistle]

no deaths and only non-lethal

[weak moat]

tier 6+ is boring imho

full armor is not that intereting than killing villagers

[plush thistle]

tier 3 is sauce

[weak moat]

++

[plush thistle]

flesh galore

problem?

sword it out biatch no armour

only dig bick energ

[weak moat]

xdd

hard mode is when u spawn without weapon vs spear or smth

[plush thistle]

hard mode is that bastard zombie bat spear vs ANYTHING

i stg when i stab that cntstain i cut him into small bits

[silk cairn]

i think ive found a hack for large polearms

if you tap lmb to set the weapon to a moe active move, you can wint up a swing, and instead of following through with the mouse, you can jsut let go off of LMB

wilie will quickly rturn the weapon to itsstatic guard position which ends up being a very powerful swing with a consistent trajectory oncw you know how to aim it

[keen pewter]

DO NOT MARRY YOUR COUSIN

[silk cairn]

whats more, in the time that the weapon is returning to the neutral state, you can move your body and camera, letting you accelerate the swing sorta like in Mordhau

can also be used to course correct

ive been strugling with insufficient power to my swings due t small mousepad, but higher ensetivity remove any kind of control over the weapon

this interesting mechanic helps a lot

[gaunt sapphire]

min npc damage, max player damage

beware of blunt damage is ass tho

[solid trout]

@keen pewter Turn up your DPI and violently move your mouse up and down, your head follows the camera and you can just hand out absolute depleters

You can also take yourself out if you do it too close to a fence so he careful

[naive holly]

Now I think I'm going to do T8 vs T3 and just full sprint into them see what happens

Overconfidence at its finest lol

[broken oyster]

I hope they will add just a blunt stick

[dire canyon]

now I understand what sisyphus felt like, talking in this server and not leveling up 😔

[soft osprey]

You only need to chat for another like 30-45 minutes of actual chatting

#stat-rank-check message

[muted owl]

that shiddded splidded

[remote crypt]

Just get good in realtime

[muted owl]

but i was here before the leveling stuff so im specshial

[remote crypt]

I never understood why every single sword game needs slowmo. Just... Learn the fucking game.

I'm still tryna turn it off for the vr games I have that have it.

[muted owl]

tier two

https://tenor.com/view/baka-patrick-bateman-sigma-male-gif-22148330

HEY PAUL!

[pure pewter]

Can I pretty please cut off people dicks

[jolly mulch]

damnit i got no cash for that

[jolly mulch]

just get good at imaging in real life

[muted owl]

I dont think halfsword will become an AO game

[dense ridge]

you got a lot of time to get a job

[jolly mulch]

i got a job...

[dense ridge]

got a lot of time to save 20 bucks

[remote crypt]

Okay I have no clue what you just said. Imaging?

[soft osprey]

No

[remote crypt]

Yes

[pure pewter]

:(

[jolly mulch]

imaging no idea how do i say it

[remote crypt]

Describe the concept to me rq

[muted owl]

https://tenor.com/view/is-this-your-card-cat-kittie-is-this-your-cat-whisker-gif-9823792984177607593

[remote crypt]

Like. Imagine? Or

[jolly mulch]

like in ur head recreating it

in slow motion

[muted owl]

are you a jittleyang or futtletugan

[jolly mulch]

this kinda ruined it

[remote crypt]

Yeah imagine

[jolly mulch]

btw is it possible to throw the spear or any weapon like not toss but throw it at the head

[dense ridge]

you can throw, but throwing accurately is the problem

[thorny perch]

You can not aerodynamically throw a spear

[remote crypt]

But no I hate slowmo in games. Just record a 1/2 hour of footage and watch it in 4-5x to get the same effect.

[jolly mulch]

damn

[jolly mulch]

i never use slow motion in any game

[dense ridge]

you can use cheat engine for slowmo if you want

[remote crypt]

Its a crutch for people who just can't move or block in a timely manner.

[jolly mulch]

xd

[remote crypt]

I'm sorry you wanna larp as lizzo but... Keep slowmo out of my historically accurate game pls.

[dense ridge]

wut

[remote crypt]

Ppl who want slowmo

Its a crutch. Just learn to predict and react

[dense ridge]

why would it impact you if they added any sort of slomo to a single player game

its not like it would take any sort of development time to add

[tough yew]

people will probably use slowmo for the fun of it and see how the game interacts with the blow in slowtime if yknow what i mean

[remote crypt]

There are better things the devs can add

[jolly mulch]

im waiting for ufc in this game roundhouse kick to the face and start blasting away in the ground

[remote crypt]

I get that. There be mods for it

[dense ridge]

Slomo already exists in the engine, its not like something they would need to spend time on

You can run Slow motion right now just by using cheat engine

[tough yew]

anyhow it’d probably be optional and not mandatory for the player to use

[remote crypt]

Anything is better than adding it imo. Ppls would just pass off slowmo for actually being good

Like they do for blade and sorc

[dense ridge]

Ah right, I forgot about the pro half sword circuit, id hate for people to have fake gamer cred

[jolly mulch]

add crossbows and bows

[tough yew]

planned

[soft osprey]

I’m going to force your game to only play in slow mo

[thorny perch]

Add modern firearms???

[tough yew]

no

[soft osprey]

Icbm when

[dense ridge]

what year is half sword trying to emulate?

[remote crypt]

I'd kill you

[thorny perch]

2017

[jolly mulch]

alr

[dense ridge]

sound:1043854763189600337:1096305445590806538

[jolly mulch]

add ICBM

[tough yew]

most people probably care of the rule of cool rather than being efficient lol

[tough yew]

1450-1475?

[remote crypt]

Efficient tends to evolve into cool tbh.

[soft osprey]

Yeah in slow mo, skill issue

[remote crypt]

At least how I play it does.

[remote crypt]

👀😤

[dense ridge]

then guns are historically accurate add guns 🤓

[tough yew]

no one argued against that no

[remote crypt]

They suck at this time period.

[soft osprey]

You know what else suck at this time period?

[dense ridge]

didnt ask, give me my arquebus

[remote crypt]

Hm?

[soft osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/regular-show-my-mom-shirt-swing-trash-talk-bye-gif-5037821

[remote crypt]

I doubt you can do a passable impression of him. If I wasnt at work I'd put you to shame lmao

[jolly mulch]

add a Barret M82 50 Cal

[soft osprey]

Yeah you would think that, living in slow mo

[dense ridge]

Okay, now add a dragon

[remote crypt]

No balls. Do the impression

[jolly mulch]

as a pet

[soft osprey]

I don’t do voice messages in discord!!!1!1!!1!! I can count the number of people who have heard my voice in discord on one hand.

[jolly mulch]

why would he die, i kicked him in the balls start of the round and insta death

[tough yew]

honestly i’d fuck with some sort of fantasy dlc that takes direct inspiration from medieval illustrations that depict fantasy things
