# rotund dove is there a way to reset settings from outside the game

There are two settings files, for graphics settings go to C:\Users\computerusername\AppData\Local\VersionTest54\Saved\Config\Windows (replace computerusername with your computer's username) where there is GameUserSettings.ini. Either delete that or edit it to adjust your settings.

For resetting game settings (lock on, etc.) go to Go to C:\Users\computerusername\AppData\Local\VersionTest54\Saved\SaveGames and delete Settings.sav, you can't edit it because it's encrypted but deleting it resets your settings on game launch.

I have an RTX 4080 Super, i9-14900kf, and 64GB of RAM and it struggles on cinematic in the playtest, but that's about what I get for cinematic in the demo

floral crane
#

Would be nice to have a bit more frames

oblique flint
#

And changing resolution appears to do nothing

fast bramble
floral crane
fast bramble
#

For what it's worth cinematic in the playtest isn't an intended graphics option, it's a default Unreal Engine thing for CGI and there's barely any difference between Epic and Cinematic besides FPS and maybe slightly better shadows

#

First image is Epic, second is cinematic, both DX12

floral crane

#

DX12 imo does look better, it's more unstable though (causes crashes for some people and it runs worse). There's some custom shaders Galaxy made that only works in DX12.

There's a bunch of ReShade presets for graphics, a trainer mod for spawning stuff, slow-mo, etc., and there's one called the Quality of Life mod that does some of the same things as the trainer mod but also does a bunch of other stuff I'm not sure about

twill be longer my friend. The playtest has primarily served it's purpose— for now, the devs are going gung-ho into Early Access, focused on developing that so we will have a great product for the final Quarter of this year! dankClap

#

there are some things they were previously working on for the playtest to my knowledge, but those got moved to early access so the team could allocate more resources to EA (not the company lmao). Hope this helps with some answers! You can find our official roadmap in #announcements

you sorta can, you just gotta whip your camera down at the right footing. (holding shift helps you get a bit extra oomph in your stance for it.)

Ok I did not know that the big battle axe can split helmets in half. Willie duplicated his head from shock

Ok it did not split visualy, but I was practicing overheads and that Willies head split in half and the helmet went flying.

# hasty axle Tutorial

There’s a tutorial in the demo, but overall controls are very simple.
WASD to move, E and Q to grab, hold ALT to get into stabbing stance, hold left click and swing for regular swings, hold right click to halfsword. Press X to swap hands, and spacebar to kick.

#

easy to learn hard to master

#

From there it’s up to you to learn the tricks of the game

#

There’s definitely a bit of a learning curve to get actually good

So... how do I use a shield? I'm really bad at shields

bronze mural
lapis marsh
#

shields are only useful on lower tier armors

bronze mural
mellow bronze
bronze mural
#

If you get shield and falchion
imo I prefer to use two hand

#

I think sheilds mostly just inhibit the range of movement

lapis marsh
#

once you go to about the top two tier armors shields become redundant

bronze mural
#

but I also prefer shortswords over longswords, so take my opinions with a grain of salt.

lapis marsh
bronze mural
#

Yeah

#

Expecially since a shield limits your movement on like half of your body

lapis marsh
#

it could be better if we had better movement options with a sheild

#

and we could maybe shield bash opponents

bronze mural
#

seriously!

lapis marsh
#

but as of now having the reach of a longsword or polearm is more important than being protected

bronze mural
#

Imagine if sheild damage got added
like you'd be able to deal with shield users via slicing away at their shield

mellow bronze
lapis marsh
#

and if you use top tier armors, they're dead weight anyway

I hardly get hit in ARMSMAN tier, much less the later ones.

Bro I genuinely just use shortsword over longsword sometimes

#

it's a lot easier to get precise pokes with shorsword in my opinion

#

🥱

bronze mural
#

Daggers do crazy damage for no reason

lapis marsh
bronze mural
#

I think the most damaging weapons in the game are

floral crane
#

2 handed axe

bronze mural
#

Falchion at #1
Axe at #2
Daggers (Thrusting) at #3
Shortsword (Half sword) #4

#

The reason shortsword is so far up is because of this one tech

#

if you've ever cut stuff with one of those cabled or wires

#

you know what I mean

#

You can just headlock someone then cut them in half

lapis marsh
bronze mural
#

HOWEVER it is mostly due to bleed and accumulated bone damage

#

Not direct damage, so it ranks lower

lapis marsh
#

oh thats what its called

bronze mural
#

Mhm

#

Oh also imo the plancon is impractical. It leaves you effectively wide open to attack, and you basically have to flail with it. Otherwise it's just a spear with added dead weight.

lapis marsh
#

the poleaxe is probably the best jack of all trades weapon

  1. Pitchforks need nerfed, same with the big spikey pole in tier 4, they are genuinely not fun to duel against. Spike pole can easily put down top tier fully armored knights with just a swing or two because at least one spike will find a gap in armor.

  2. Your Willy just deciding to randomly fall over and give up ever trying to stand back up again is terrible, same with your Willy randomly getting the stanky leg and bouncing back into a stiff upright position like on a trampoline for whatever reason completely killing your directional momentum and sometimes slipping you up and causing him to once again randomly fall and basically throw your duel, definitely needs fixed.

#

Otherwise extremely enjoyable.

#

The silliest bug happened to me

#

So, I'm playing T2 counting from the top

#

And I was like "Let me try the polehammer"- it's dog imo, doesn't have enough swing angle

#

But regardless, I was just vibing after winning a Brave Stand and I left to menus, and ended up getting a Half Plate Greatsword combo
