yeah he didnt like that
half sword bladed weapons
WRONG
or use blunt weapons
im using halberd rn
aim for neck, or if you have blunt weapon aim for head
WRONG
also half sword is your friend
THE ONLY WEAPON YOU NEED ARE YOUR FISTS, TAKE THEM DOWN LIKE A MAN
rip and tear
one left overhand and its over
sometimes you can get a cheeky slash through the chest armor but I feel it's a bug
or maybe I am hitting armpit area without armor
is it usual that i half-sword and end up placing the blade behind their neck and cut the nape
never intend to do it but it happens
if you keep the sword near their neck long enough they might surrender
dont let them though
Devs need to fix
kill willie aways
death or victory
i dont think it matters if you kil him, in medieval england/germany you'll probably die just from the first cut lol
disinfectants werent real advanced back then
letting infection do your work for you is cowardly
when the full game comes out I hope there is an assassin mission
where you go under the overhanging toilets and stab someone with a spear
truly like medieval times then
um i just thrusted halberd into willies shoulder and he exploded
just like god intended it to be, amen
I thought it was or is that the joke
It is?
it has been bro
wtf ...
just go to steam and request access, it insta-accepts...
ye I joined beta right away and got in
bye head
yeah you dont have to be accepted anymore
that didnt sound right
MODS MODS! RULE 1a!! HATESPEECH HERE /j
LET ME BREATHE
how do i play against unarmored enemy as someone armored
get mods
You can get mods?
yes
How
nexus mods
nexusmods i presume
Ok
does shield bashing work
thats why we need dueling shields
This game gives toribash vibes
Those sound great but probably wont function well
what is kicking even for? 50/50 chance you either ground them or it does nothing/misses
it could be fun
I guess
removed his brain privileges and then emoted on him
@craggy verge and theres an example where kicking was useful
got me out of that bind
so to push them back?
i mostly use it in fist play to go full muay-thai mode and turn their legs into jelly
How do you get armor and other weapons? Ive only had knifes and a few blunt weapons
higher tiers
check dms
Its crazy how different the demo and the playtest are lol
spin kicking :) i failed the first few times but i got it right at the end
skip to 0:15 for a good example
I let go
fire video
this one he didn't die so I went down too
what mod are you using to get up there?
I also somehow didn't take damage falling so cool
Qol mod
qol can make you do that?
I mean trainer
oh
How do you get mods
can i get a link? i only find a version for the demo
Found it
i take it back
Was it nessacary to flex?
Does anyone know how to roundhouse kick (I keep trying but I just can't get it)
nevermind I found out how
Longsword
w/o ovrdth and some shenanigans, afaik you can only get GS in the highest tier
i guess it's just a long longsword, which is very nice
whats the one peasant weapon thats like a hook at the end of a short stick called
longest longsword i've seen yet, performs very well, can take on men at arms with ease
billhook?
(not the sickle)
no its a one handed weapon
about knife sized
there are one handed billhooks too
and two handed billhooks, and military billhooks
cant send a image im too low rank
and i know what a billhook is this is definitley different
there sent it in #game-footage-🎮🎥
this one?
the parry was insane
Kinda looks like zornhut
Zornhut with vom tag maybe
Or maybe an overextended haymaker who knows
im cooked
why is this game so good!
pep talk
Foreplay*
Homie said im out of here
I love the voice warble when that happens lmao
can someone give me any advice for polehammer
peruse through M00's stuff, mans got hammers down to a dance
ok
for a less graceful approach, using the transition from holding right click and letting it go as you swing from the left is pretty brutal, serves me well.
invest in billhook
Go for counters
nvm my control fucking sucks ass in this video
you can do the same with higher ease if you drop the weapon and left hook willie
them short polearms held sideways are absolute asscheeks
if you line it up its just a 1 shot to the head most of the time
probalem is the game is very generous to the defender on what it consideres a glancing blow
same with my fists
much too often do i just instakill willie with a left hook
granted you need to have your hand gloved
I never play high armor cause its boring as fuck, but yeah when I did I one punched a lot of guys
I thought it was so funny when I would hook them and their heads would pop like cherries inside their helmets
high armor suffers from Heavy Willie syndrome
you get close, he's somehow 300% heavier than your character, you now live in the ground
high armor suffers from this games physics aren't finished yet so my longsword turns into a lightsaber and phases through the enemies and one shots them often
or, the rest of the 50% of engagements, you get in to a half-sword lock with him using any weapon, it teleports inside someone and someone DIES
the amount of times either my leg, or the enemies leg randomly exploded through armor is quite high
shield usser moment
yeah lol
the shield AI is just horrifically bad
basically a free win for any weapon
instantly fixed if they allow willie to switch shield stancing like you can at the press of one button
lol
I wanted to try throwing us down together it worked
i wish it were easier to stomp willie's head onto the wooden fence
The footwork is the most notable thing 100%
I’ve seen people in vids wear black gambesons but I’ve never been able to get it. Even if I try to spam spawn it with the Quality Of Life mod I can never get the black colour. Is there a way to get it?
something something you know man
?
I was just being kind of an ass. It's late where I live, and I didn't know a proper answer to your inquiry.
how do you get there? trainer mod? and how?
those are only available to willies without a team
so you have to get trainer mod, set your team to zero and then save your loadout with ctrl+l
unteamed willies can wear literally any color so you might have to repeat alot
9 out of 10 half sworders quit randomizing their equipment just before they get the perfect loadout
my perfect loadout is long longsword / two handed hammer
That gets me so hot
oh
so it doesn’t spawn naturally?
btw is there a way to hide the big ui on the trainer mod?
well for the player it doesn't
i really wish the greathammer and battleaxe spawned more commonly
press u
yeah, a big shame, only available to soldier tier and rare even then, they are so fun but so rare. lucky we now have OVRDTH loadout selector and trainer mod.
caught him lacking, about to punish him
goes pretty hard ngl
the parry into the narrow ass dodge
god I love when you get good at this game
and how do you do that
i just installed the trainer mod lol😭
Found this gem
https://youtube.com/shorts/AreTdrvvnRg?si=YR_uQwtMC_bm4yG1
Obviously sharpness (and the blade's cross-section, width, thickness, etc) matters in a sword fight, historical or fictional. The game Half Sword with its physics based fighting mechanics simulates damage based on which part of the weapon hits. But oh boy, are the blades sharp... Eat your heart out, anime katana! ;)
The videos I'm referring to ...
bro i got the perfect lay out but it didnt save
i pressed ctrl and l but nothing happened
and i went to menu
nothing saved
if i use the qol mod to save it doesnt work either
new suggestion by me, go upvote it ples
workshop?
no🤣
but you can also get the quality of life mod and trainer mod on github
ok
@buoyant pecan@hasty raven@rose spindle update alr
is @fresh python a good app?
does it take yt links
do not ping the developers for matters like this
just fyi
when is multiplayer coming out
it is not a priority
though keep in mind that splitscreen is already functional and will probably be an official feature in the early access version
but you need a controller for splitscreen
yeah?
does that mean ur adding controller support
the game had some support for controller at some point, can easily be re-added for later
and im pretty sure its possible to play the current playtest with it
yummy
Splitscreen opens up remote play together, which is basically mp lel
❤️
reminds me of something
I call this, the swastica
scary
his eyes 😭
ai actually does something decently????
idk all the posters in the back are wildin
doenst look like it tbh
guys I love Muzan from the hit anime series Demon Slayer
you don't see the poster that looks like a massive penis
guess that's just me huh
how do you even see that
yoo
Balls
I know it's a foot but
First glance
had me double take 
AI bruh
looks like a leg to me
with FAT nuts
it would have been okay if you backed me up 
I’ve seen people in vids wear black gambesons but I’ve never been able to get it. Even if I try to spam spawn it with the Quality Of Life mod I can never get the black colour. Is there a way to get it?
this game is exanima killer
Say please
Not to me, to Willie. I don’t control the spawns
No
ok
lITT
Why can’t you save it?
idk
Just use the Loadout selector mod with it
i am
look ill do a recording
🐉
I don’t use mods so it won’t do any good lol

Don't take that too far.
Good morning peeps
:3
Now that's a pitcher
anybody else grab the mace, look at your opponent
and scream
with the father, the son, and the power of spam
ima reconstruct you into jam
Lol
I spam with two handers.
With longswords though, it's an honorable duel
Tf is that one even lmao
a dude riding a willie
It's a Willie riding a Willie with a Willie holding a lamp
absolutely peak, that is all i came here to say
Much wisdom from Willie
Willie gang
ye I have a lil rule when fighting in ig you'd say the farming tier
if they have a two hander, it's to the death
if it's a lil knife or something like that, I throw down my weapon and use kicks and fists only
He's got broken hips
My ass would get got within seconds either way.
Armor is the way
i just knocked out some 1 by head butting
Fucking. Terminator
wierd ragdoll then i slammed my helmet in his face
Can't say it's not an effective tactic
neat
ima just make a lil clip ig
one of em was a pretty good throw+kick, throw hit their leg, they ran forwards and I kicked their head
second one is the vid where I put the axe in their neck, then kicked their head off XD
For sure! Would love to see em'
I've got a couple clips to make and send
I just woke up. So I have to get my ass out of bed and turn the computer on
ye I haven't slept yet
Bad primo
Bro this happens to me every time, the one arm battle
EVIIIIL is AFOOT
except both of my hands were
Oh damn lol
disabled
lol im so sad
Don't worry me too
You can't?
nope
i got a fatal error from this even though my game was totally fine lol
Huh
Lmao rekt
Happens to me when I fucking pierce through their armor
96 mb big, jesus
Sure why not.
I use clip champ you can get a 1080p 50 sec clip down to 100mb
Amazing
so do I XD
Arguably the worst and best app
Just dm me
i did
here lemme grab a vid, I made, it was made entirely with clipchamp (aside the camera angles n shit, you can thank 3 hours of getting war thunder clips that look good for that)
White boy's screenshot
looks like some fucking football fint
Leg go crack
Yeah like I said great app
Just make sure you uninstall it every now and then so it doesn't take up 30 gigs of storage
Btw it goes up every clip you make
Wtf even is this one
That Willie looks lifeless
quite literally flying
Lmao 
bros goalkeeping
MOM: I SAID LEAN JUST A LITTLE BIT YOU FUCKING IDIDOT
gonna take a bit longer
internet went out for a sec :p
Oofers
Beautiful.
The sword defied physics
finally, yt loaded the video, lemme dm you the link ig
once again, the clips and editing, clipchamp, the camera angles and the decent shots, war thunders replay system
One moment
I am but a vessel currently
im taking the most goofiest shit ever possible lol
tada
full arch trying to pull this heavy ass over my head
Finally sent? Lol
nice finisher i guess?
lol
I can't tell it won't load
i was like why tf its just black screen
Cuz clip champ makes thumbnails from the beginning
just like me fr
Nice!!
Owie his foot and possibly balls AND THAT was a right (left?) hook from hell
why tf its frozen for me
To build anticipation
yeah
You must master the bonk
Physics are so buggy if polearms colide though lmao
speaking of
gotta love it (dont mind the youtube ad)
unrelated but one of my fav clips
polearm slam
i can see why
unrelated but that first parry was nice
@polar palm
i love swords, legitemately the most satisfying weapon you could ever use
Context? Lol
doink
absolutely especially once you get the parries down
The music choice reminds me of cyberpunk psychos
That's completely fair and I respect it
yeah
i killed him
He is dead
figured i should post this clip of me being sent to hell as punishment for my crimes
the preferred outcome
how do i get out of the dark room thing
You’re playing the demo you need the playtest.
oh ty
at nearly 100 wins in a row in the highest tier
how long until some guy pokes me right through my visor
wheres the faq
How do I play online
there is no multiplayer
occasionally I see youtube videos of people playing as a high tier willy, fighting against a tier 1 willy, vice versa. How can I do that? Or I'll see clips of them with no helmet on as high tier willy
ovrdeath selector mod lets you save loadouts and use them on other tiers
OKAY SORRY!! Within one search I found out how to do it, and the ovrdeath selecter mod is the one I was looking for, thank you @muted dew ❤️
No need to be sorry. You asked a Genuine question👍
Now put on some plate and bully the homeless willies
im gonna be the one getting bullied here. i like it when the hunky plated dudes bully me 
Have they added customization for weapons yet
you do you
no. pretty sure it will come with early access in the Q4 of this year
Anybody else encounter the bug where you can't get past the gore selector at the start of the game?
bro sends 20 updates on wip and dont update the game, zzzz
Seen quite a few posts about it but don't have confirmation on a solid solution personally.
I think a clean install if you haven't already
#faq but tldr not for a long long long long while. Don't wait up.
Imma bully them right back
Mfw theyre cooking and not done yet but people have the patience of a goldfish.

My thoughts exactly
How are peoples half sword so gory?
how to earn levels?
well I just had the weirdest fight
I walked up to a guy, grabbed his face and was close enough he couldn't use his spear, so I kinda spent the next 3 minutes trying to drag him towards my sword I dropped on the floor then I cut him in half
You return as Willie the White.
Chatting
yo how do i report a bug i found a bug that crashes your game
it says fatal error
Interesting
Lmao fetal error
What’re you doing when it crashes
Willie almost had a kid
i was in spoilance with NPC damge up to max i grabed the gauntlets hit a NPC and it crashes
i have 2 pictures for proof
Is it just me or do i feel a little jigglier
HELL NO
holy shit why is the demo game so fucking scary
Game gives you a new willie since yours died, but the clothes bug cuz technically you should be back at menu as a t1 willie
i wish my game would work
Need level 2. Level up by chatting
I’m great how are you
Your username is hilarious by the way lol
ty ty im ct agent on steam i play alot of cs2
W mod team member bwt
like music to my ears
this fucking game holy shit, someone grabs me in fist play as he goes down, my character always falls the same way, he lies sideways and cant get up even if i took 0 dmg before and the opponent is downed, hell get up before me and wont ever let go
yeh fistplay is a little wonky
same thing can happen in every other tier, it just happens here more bc more grabbing
the grabbing is brutal 😫
how do i kick?
with space
space bar
very!
very fun if roundhouse
also the damage you take from hitting your head against the wood on someones weapon is absurd, ik still in playtest but damn
What's a good weapon of pure blunt force
stick
yk that stick with a bunch of nails selotaped to it ? ye that thing
You might have broke his neck I guess. I won a fight by breaking my opponent's arm while being in halfsword technique.
sup
why am i muted?
Cause you’re a criminal
Just a scratch
And we have a leveling system. Level 3 for VC
how do you even achieve this level of gore
i play on max gore but never got close to this
iis it not a bit weird this test has been out this long and you have to mod in selection settings
like the most basic testing feature
The playtest is pretty much for the combat/blood physics
And it’s not receiving any more updates
Youre not hitting with enough force or the hitting the right angles
i dont think so
i think it might be because im playing on lower dmg
and higher damage might equal more gore idk
Its the other way around, the higher your gore is the higher your chance to decapitate, unlimb, skin opponents is. This is at medium gore.
i use the max gore preset and occasionally im able to cut faces
that was pretty sick
well i am using max gore and lower dmg than default i can cut faces and all that but i can never get something like this
not even if i bash willies face with a mace 100 times on the ground or slash it with a sword
again its the angle of your blade against the face/skull.
how does one attain this level of control
yuimmers..
lots of practice. Turn down your mouse sensitivity in game settings, make your movements short but quick, I used to have my damage to npcs on low while damage to me on high to give me more room to improve while punishing me for messing up.
thanks for the tips brobro🙏
said "damn!" to myself outloud
gnarly
guys have any tips on like.. stabbing? the double click thrust is kinda hard for me to get any force behind
Dont use that to stab. Use alt.
ooooh my goodness i see it now
Hold alt to enter stab mode, hold it close to your body then out in a straight line.
👍
I do use double thrust for stabbing sparinglly, primarily for halfsword stabs.
where is the quote maker bot
truly a half sword moment
my friend has lost his face somwhere come visit him in #photography📷
brother that is NOT how you spell wazowski
ouch
Bandage and an ice pack
hey guys I haven't played in a while and I kinda forgot how to kick
Space
cheers
3 Ways to Kick (in Martial Arts) - wikiHow https://search.app/EgdpGDGcgkbkChYJ8
I gotchu
.
I'm learning how to throw things 🙂
im not really using weapons
U be doing this while i'm spending 5 minutes trying to stab a dude on the floor who wont give up in the face T-T
im literally just fucking around
bump
i've got the same, is there any way to fix it?
no idea
ok
its probably due to me overwriting my loadout so they dont recognise im on their team
proof that armored mfs are heavy as shit
hey uh I saw this online, have no clue what this is. Any help?
thats the demo
jesus christ
or whatever it is
demo
demo thats it
Demo
It just feel like carnage extanded:)
this is the demo death screen
thank you all
i love how kicks land in this game sometimes
(im not the one with the raised leg)
what in the flying knee holy shit
how do i share photos
mate you're dropping willies left right and centre
yeah cuz i make funny photos
anyone know the "world record" for Single Combat?
feet off the ground and everything
(hes about to go smashing into the fence)
caved in his knees
feet meet jaw
"HAIIIIIYAH!"
how do you even get kicks that high? my feet barely leave the ground, or they go to high and miss
just flick really fucking hard'
stomp of the century
"HAIIIIIYAH!" v2
(the kick actually landed this time)
this
i hit his guard twice
then i come around with that shit and cave his skull in
aftermath
arched back from trauma (ignore the way im posing)
how do i download a mod like performance mod into halfsword
Is your main goal being more fps?
yeah
I'm uncertain as everybody (mostly) is having a problem with fps. Optimization (performance) isn't top priority at the games current state. So unsure
Not sure if your already doing this but use dx11
Only simple option would be turning down blood/gore and of course quality. Although I've been getting MORE fps with blood and gore on so...
im getting like 15 fps while on high quality
aftermath
try medium quality with dx11, blood and gore set to middle. test it all in single combat mode
*wouldn't bother using high quality on small buhurt - tanks me the most
how do i accurate guide my weapon into vulnerable points? like how do i aim my shots into the unarmored points
....... YOU CAN'T!
i have before with luck
can yall send vids bruh
the vids yall send are mad satisfying
As have I ... but that was simple luck as opposed to doing it in a calculated manner
all about sens depending on what weapon you use
occasionally when i halfsword i accidentaly put it behind them and slash the nape
im sure theres some profesionall like m00 who can just do it at a whim
what does one do in this situation
Can not get up? Hold G to give up!
Suicide is a cowards way out
boutta hit the
Try practicing Swords low sensitivity against the Dummy. Good to practice in-fighting while holding your sword with 2 hands. Practice targeting the armpit and/or Ribcage (if no armor is protecting there).
Or just spam lol
is low sensitivity better? mine is just at defualt
le smile de glasgow
U wanted videos :p
how do you do these so often T-T
Ancient karate techniques
whats the best sensitivity
max
do not trust you
y not :(
not happy in the slightest
good form
the best strat is to go muay-thai mode and turn their legs into jelly
fire response
Is there a way I can toggle sprint?
is that a serious question
ts cant be compfy
umm yeah 0_0
press your shift key ?
if anything its more comfortable pressing shift than not
no you cannot turn on toggle sprint in settings like any other game
+itd be weird to have a toggle sprint
To me it just feel natural
is he doing a backflip
threw him for a backflip
wait you can break necks? how?
dude was still swinging even after his arm was severed
scary fella
takedown ass photo
bruh i got the funniest photo but no image perms 😦
PM me it ill sent it on ur behalf
krill issue
sometimes you just snap at them really hard with a weapon and their head throwing back ends up killing them
from @craggy verge
i'll kill you
holy shit htis is the meanest flying spin kick ive ever hit wtf
we're such a lovely couple
ill put my toes in your mouth
Determination
💔
soccer kicked willies head so hard it started bleeding bruh, this game is crazy
i love grabbing them and kicking them back in the direction of the way theyre being pulled
thats not even 5% of the gore in this game
im aware
Apparently Willie has telekenesis now, they all be doing it.
i need to become a better kicker
this is forever my favorite screenshot
peel off his back
yeah lower sens is better for swords ( not that much better for the bulgy greatswords)
high sens is VERY good to fuck people up, but lower sens is better if you're going for a normal approach
i tried max sens and couldnt move my hand
skill issue
get a better hand
also, a litte tip for everyone is that if you have a heavy ass weapon you can use its momentum to throw yourself like this
dude's a generational hater
i speak factws
what does center crosshair do?
i'll just do it myself "factws"
how are you getting weapons in fist fight
idk i found it ig
look at the actual dust kickup on this kick and he just deflects it by kicking me in the nuts bro 😭
if you cant use your hands use your feet
Using battleaxe is a good weapon in my opnion to do slash dmg close or go absolutely ape shit swings and couldnt get any better blunt damage for long range
they gotta add it seeing as its allready made
would use back armour
what rank is that
from @craggy verge
2nd highest tier
how is he still breathing after all this
someone mentor me on how to kick properly
not anymore
bumrush them at the start - kick while swinging close range
how about a spear? its good for managing range, fucking people up, and stabbing
how to affectively take down an opponent
i shit you not my 1# counter is when they go to grab me i just kick their legs out, grab them and then throw them halfway across the arena
how do you throw
i assume its just flailing your mouse around at max sens
or spinning
My games on a black screen
its really just grabbing them and pushing your mouse to the side and
It said unity and just went black
throwing them
put that shit down
its literally just throwing them
fair enough, i shall try that later
so i did a thing
holy shit i actually dunked on him
yes Spear is the go to for lower tiered armor fights bro - i'd say it's number 1 for low armor
i failed
lower tier? hold my spear
boop
havent been able to play for a week because of the violence select screen bug;{
brutal ass kick
