if they're stuck in a black endless void, that's not the tutorial, that's the the demo
if they want to play in the arena, they have to request for the playtest on the steam page
how did you get that type of demo im stuck on the othe one
on the same steam page as the demo just a bit lower
www
yo anybody know why cant i play online?
because there isnt an online mode?
Thanks, it workd for him
How the heck is he alive
does anybody know how to neck snap
ive been with this dude begging for mercy for like 5 minutes now
while im trying to break his neck
all answers appreciated
this is probably the most obscure featre in the game
so fucking rare
i meant like bc i had the one where the people was coming out of the dark i though the other one was online 🤦♂️
that's the demo
In the playtest there's a button that says "play demo"
I pressed it and saw a stick/dummy
Held g
Then it said i lost and glitched
How can i fix that
fucked up day
go to settings
then disable training dummy
Has anyone ever won by yeeting their weapon?
I feel like it should be possible, but is just insanely hard
how do i stab
A couple times. A lot of luck involved
nice
double click left mouse button or use alt and move mouse up/down
thanks!
shoulda wore a neck guard :(
billhoogk
ah
guys i got a problem
billhook is like a spear but better
sometimes game doesnt even use my gpu its utilization is at 0 what can i do
objectively true!
pile o' corpses
fighting in armor forces me to practice aiming which is fun
i might do a billhook knight
Armor tiers make you really appreciate how versatile the billhook really is
twins
here's why first person is goated lol
NICE
!!
still getting used to billhook
the end was kinda nice and i don't feel like editing it down
like form 0:20 on
from*
Utilize standard grip for better blunt damage
the little hook you can do on necks is really useful
When is next update
can't aim for shit with it : (
whens the next update
i can kinda aim with it ig
q4 of this year i think
practice practice practice
What is your favorite polearm, chat?
billhook.
think i broke his neck?
spear
followed by voulge, then poleaxe and billhook
Probby!!!
wth is a polearm
this
A polearm or pole weapon is a close combat weapon in which the main fighting part of the weapon is fitted to the end of a long shaft, typically of wood, extending the user's effective range and striking power. Polearms are predominantly melee weapons, with a subclass of spear-like designs fit for thrusting and/or throwing. Because many polearms ...
cheers
I love sweeping with the longsword
Add more fist weapons
i love halfsword stab/slash with polearms
Like brass knuckles and small daggers
this is my favorite way to use longsword
THEY JUMPING ME
YOOOO

jesus I flayed him
Ive only used the longsword twice but it's gotta be my fav weapon other than the axe
It just inflicts so much damage
The billhook is objectively the best weapon for me
Haven't actually tried that weapon yet, I can't send videos here but look in game footage and you'll see what I mean by the axe is good
Thing is a demon at damage
yeah billhook has some crazy range even when half swording
The way this is frozen makes it look like you had a rapier
RAPIER IN HAF SORD LEAKED ?????
haf sord
Yethhh it rocks
Are you sure
yup
Early access releases in Q4 of this year
ok, thank you
i just know people are gonna be making some cursed ass weapons
Some janky clipping involved BUT HOOOOLY SHIT YALL I GOT THE VISOR KILL
I just hope you even can. Like idk if it’s gonna be restricted, like only certain handles and what not for each weapon type
We’ll see
gonna have mfs wielding cloud's sword from final fantasy
The berserk sword, @worn heron worst nightmare
or like 12 feet long spears (which is realistic considering they were a real thing but still)
What the hell was that spin!?
I’ll make a 3 foot spear just for the memes
A polearm is a close quarter combat weapon with the main fighting part of the weapon placed on the end of a long shaft, typically of wood
It is further combat than a sword
but still close quarter
are there supposed to be 2v4 buhorts?

did they update?
my FOV seems a lil further out,
colors look a bit warmer
the message that started so much
Salutations, fine shyts
I slapped willy super hard, he was getting me mad lol
i wish they added ground defense to the bare knuckle fighting of this game
or clinching and elbows
So guys
I pressed play demo in the play test
after disabling the tutorial dummy
I selected single combat and it said I LOST
I didn't even touch my opponent and my opponent didn't touch me
is this normal
yes you're character was shy
it happens sometimes lol, When I press record on steam when I go into rounds it makes me lose
it's just a bug
also chill
@steep verge thoughts on my throw
i am NOT recording
well you did something lol, Does it keep making you lose lol
have you tried varifying the files
define verifying the files
ok
Try it out lol
igh
you tell me
I've 459 hours in first person
How tf do u play in 1st person? It's so disorienting to me
ok just delete and reinstall lol
this is how
trying to help lol but I've never had this problem before lol
is it allowing you to press anything
i pressed fist play once then that popped up again
and i couldn't press anything else
did i mention that i have no GPU
could that be the issue
are you alt tabbing while the game is loading
literally alt+tab
when you press alt tab lol
yeah i'm not doing that shit
I think my CPU is just fried
It's still doing ts
I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy
Ts just sad
scite is broken on demo
i dont kill willies
willies just come to their dead
im trying to take something, i turn aroun, there is a dead willie
the menace
can weapons actually damage when thrown (if it lands on them)
Willy grabbed onto my face
What damage setting do most of you recommend?
My Willie died becuse of THAT wound
If you can't see it, it's in his ankle
He died.
Because of that.
you might say your opponent found your achilles heel
why i always prioritize pulling the weapon out immediately

Double two handed wielding (?)
Do you guys like fist fights in this game?
yeah i like fisting. why
:(
May I please get an answer to this I’m curious
its all personal preference. i personally like lower settings so my fights last a little longer. i hate hitting willie once and he jsut gives up...
just depends on how you want to play really
Where did the Willie joke come from?
wdym?
Got ya nice!
thats the models name
In this video, I am testing out the meta weapon in Half Sword, and people are complaining about this weapon. I kinda see why it's broken cause you can easily kill your opponent in no time by simply sticking the pitchfork in them. What are your guys' thoughts about the weapon?

Is there a way to choose colour of clothing with ovrdth and qol mod?
it's not working, i'm not sure if there is a step i'm missing

I feel you lol
Thank you! Swords are definitely not my specialty, but it's been a while since I've done something with this character/loadout; I imagine he's on the edgier side of things, so he never leaves anyone alive! lol
I try to have it as low as i can but it's such a crucial hit indicator as someone who hadn't played the game before gore
But yeah it sure helps, low with no blood it runs alr,
But high with like, 25% blood in 1v1 is butter

Lol at the tunic under the plate. I love the berserker vibes, I usually do that in the demo lol. The blenderrrr
I just went on like a 17 long killstreak with the 2h axe
It's bonkers, and so silly when you whap someone on the helm
Is neck break even on yet? I thought that was a confirmed possible feature
You probably just knocked him out instantly, if it’s not
Same! Ever since I learned how to do custom loadouts, I wanted to see/experiment with different dual wielding loadouts/loadouts in general. The tunic under the plate has to do with the lore I'm making for this particular "character" lol; he's basically an anti-hero whose peasant family/village was destroyed by the Tyrant King
If you listen close, you hear a bone crack, so whenever I hear that, I assume something broke lol; if not his neck, then possibly a jaw break
Nah you can def break knecks. You hear it and there's the bruising effect and they just fuggin deadweight
Some silly captions but you can see it happen here, maybe even twice
but I feel like I've had the purple bruising happen, with the bone cracking noise on someone's neck before, with a different clip, too:
Ah, you got one lol
Yeah one of them is rolling around still but the other straight ded
Also yeah doing custom loadouts has been a love hate because im actually obsessing, but I finally got one I like as a main. Still want to make a bevor/kettle guy lol
There's so many possibilities!
I found the clip I was thinking about! lol I actually break it TWICE:

I hope they add the venetian falchion
it's basically a 15th century sabre
this ones from 1490
This was in the demo by the way
hiya all i joined legit just for a question
what
Yeah it was in the damo
i pressed t and a weird thing appeared
Thats ur inventory
I like how everyone is learning how to do kicks and cool stuff like that, While my trick is tossing stuff lol
I've learnt it and it's deadly
blunt weapon kinda trash imo
if i can't land 1 shot to the head = absolute L on blunt weapon
ngl. skill issue
anyone else having the issue where everyone in brave stand just starts attacking each other
do you swipe ur mouse across the table cuz my dude just use it like rubber toy
no i just use high sens and dpi
W devs, still havent fixed a bug that makes the game literally unplayable and its been months and i still cant play the only "solution" is to clean re install which doesnt work i tried it 10 fucking times
i see i use low dpi and sword can do pricision atk
but can't do sheet on blunt weapon
- chill out. its a playtest. 2. you have not cleared EVERY trace of haflsword from your PC
you need to go in and clear every single file. including the ones that are hidden in your file explorer which you can unhide
thank you, sorry i didnt know but tbf someone couldve just said that 4 months ago
they said the solution 2 months ago. when they finally figured it out'
they just said to go local game files and delete them
also peep into windows + R > %appdata% and make sure thats cleared aswell
thx pookie
I feel stupid asking but is there some sort of choking mechanic lol? Mis-clicked and grabbed willie directly by the throat and stg all his weapons just popped off him like a yard sale and match was won lol.
@tawdry kraken here's a complete guide for yah
might have knocked him out
yah myb, was so suprised by that forgot i cracked him the head with my handle a moment earlier, prob just a delayed reaction
axe=/=blunt weapon
thats an axe...
Handle bashes go crazy but hammers and such blow
i cut ppl in half w axe dude
Wish hammers were better cause they look sweet as hell
Also only really use 2H so all the war hammers being weird takes away a lot of possible options
best blunt weapon in the game
It is a blunt weapon...
theres a certain way to handle them...
The best way to deal with a longsword user
???? try to rub ur hand on it and see weather u bleed or not
solid throws!
what do you think of this one
Is there? only cause ive heard from others that it is genuinely bugged so after trying it and failing figured I wouldnt waste my time any longer. If it isnt bugged ill keep at it.
something about switching hands to carry momentum. its a hard technique to learn
yeah i was experimenting that with the poleaxe and def finicky
same goes with a warhammer and mace? depending on what style, still considered a blunt weapon if added sharpness
give me a sec ima go fetch a m00 video
buckler & mace best combo
i mean the circle thing on top of stick
actually laughed out loud at that
Mace?
so you mean the rounded shape alone
Jesus christ I executed willy with a throw

jee sorry 🥺
well i guess that settles it, skill issue
m00 is also just another species entirely... not even human
Its not possible to change keybinds is it?
someone mentioned it but i think you have to screw with your files to do it
If its anything like messing around with .config file shouldnt be too involved. Ill look into it then
was playing the game and my music dropped at the perfect time
nah what
do a flip
ok
Gameusersetting.ini had nothing in it to alter user inputs and the only post i found referring to it was asking why it has since been removed from Gameusersettings.ini. Doesnt look hopeful lmao
i just remember someone talking about how its better to switch your alt stab button to a side button on your mouse
lol thats exactly what i was wanting to do
I believe i can fly..
using ovrdth mod so i dont gotta click through for weapon I want and ever since installing pressing alt in game causes that one windows noise to go off. Idk what its called lol the budung one
doesnt seem to do anything else but annoying asf
unless
wayment ovrdth mod has setkey bind function... ha
i dont have that issue with loadout selector
i dont even know if it is for sure, but only does it when i got it open
very inconsistent tho, i could thrust 3 or 4 times before it does it or itll happen the first time
might be a stretch but what display option do you use? fullscreen? borderless?
might be trying to interect with something i.e the loadout selector in the background because its not entirely focused on halfsword
ill give it a shot

haha. im not the most tech savvy but it just kinda made sense to me
appreciate yah

do you know WHO I am
What if gun are added to halfsword 💔
I can't wait any longer, does anyone have the release date?
October 2300 the day after GTA VI is released
🤣
Early access releases in Q4 of this year
okay, thanks👍
ofc i do.
BRO WTF THAT IS SO COOL
i hope they release gta in october. then they can finally kill call of duty once and for all
i need lessons
lifted this mf with brute force
there should be a "creative mode" added to the playtest / release in my opinion
the mode im talking about should be activated by a button in the menu
the creative mode should allow you to spawn willies (either randomized, blank or customized), weapons, armor and misc. stuff
also allows you to enable godmode and switch gamemodes (single combat and all of that stuff)
There’s already a mod that does that on the demo
i know, but that mod doesnt work on the playtest
wtf?? did you guys know one clicking either side when you have a weapon equpped does a special action
Yeah
like one handed you put them over your shoudler but not dequip
It puts it into a resting position
i have 27 hours i didnt know this
did you know you can roundhouse kick?
indian icecube??
also yes i knew but i only use it when a situations bad lol
genuine question, when will the game update?
Maybe this year
maybe is just wild, but at least we're gonna get an update 🙏
we most likely wont see another update because this is only a playtest. early access is said to release in the 4th quarter of the year
all this games missing to me tbh is just a replay fight scene with free camera, slo mo, and reverse
Oh yeah maybe some bug fixes
truee
but theres more to add ngl
I wouldn’t expect any content to be added, for a long time
i better hope the game's not under 10 euros on full release then
id give these blokes a benjamin on release if i could
Oh yeah, it’ll be expensive, all right
better get your money up G
i mean true, the game is FULLY dynamic and a lot of things can just go wrong when coding the physics and stuff
ong i'd dump my lifes savings on this game
the only good gore game on steam rn
Why they staring at me like that
what are the requirements for content creator role
i made like one video 5 months ago for HS but i just wanna post gifs and clips of my stuff sometimes
excellent suggestion

all you gotta do is keep yapping for a couple hours
you're back?? eugh...
hi hamham
hello
do not post gore here please
by bad OG 🤑
anyway heres what you missed
some strong ass quads
how do you practice parray's and active parry's?
The kicks are broken in my opinion
Kicks in general Have always been powerful game or in real life
they make you invisibke
It’s a easy final blow when you want the surrendering to be silent
I mean. A majority of fights include getting your opponent to the ground and cutting of their ability to use a brain.
Kicks Are Also Really Good When A Enemy Grabs You In A Fist Fight
Kicks should be powerful. You’re able to put A lot of body weight behind it and your entire body structure is meant to use your legs for carrying your entire self.
nut taps....
Yeah!
Trust me THEY ARE. Swing the camera to engage them hips and break necks, knees and ribs

what is going to get releaed first, this game or gta 6?
This game prob
That shitd be fire
i have a question is there another version of the play test bc i saw on itch io a half sword version with nature background
It releases in q4 so who know
gg
Wtf is q4 I thought there was only Q1, Q2 And Q3
thanks tho
Q means quarter
Ik
As in a 1/4th
I thought there was only Q1 Q2 And Q3
Well where would the last quarter be then?
I though Q3 WAS the last
Q is för quarter why would there only be 3/4ths of a year
Because I thought it was 3/3
honors in place for every npc except goedendag users
but why would it be called a quarter then
Quarters have two sides
it has nothing to do with the coin. Even so how would 2 sides mean 3 quarters?

And that means each side is one eighth a dollar
Did you know there was a burger by A&W they tried selling in America as a 1/3 burger and it failed to sell because Americans thought 1/4 was bigger than 1/3? same energy 😂
This almost made me burst out laughing 😭😭😭
Best logic I've ever heard
True....
is this game going to be on vr?
No
im sad now
unknown
@Depressed
they still haven't said anything about their plans regarding porting this game on other platforms
its all dependent if the game sells and there's high demands I guess.
I myself would love to see this game become a VR title as it would blow anything out of the water
Am I dumb 😭🙏
Perchance
Am i suffering from skill issue or are the two handed hammers kinda trash
Nobody knows

A always
B be
C changing grips
its still bad...
guess ill stick to polearms

anyone else just straight up not able to get into the game?

i able to open it but i cant click on any options to start the game
Same but my game did crash earlier
You’re stuck on the gore selection screen?
yea
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
Navigate to and delete the folder VersionTest54 located in the following directory.
C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\VersionTest54
Finally, reinstall Half Sword Playtest.
be sure to get ALL files listed above before reinstalling, and it should work. Let me know your results please!
The video shows you how to see your hidden files and goes to the app data files paths. I’m sure you know where your steam folder is for the last one
app data is Big stinker

Sorry,maybe stupid question,but how I can update my playtest version for getting weapon customisation?
Sizes of my hero
you can't, you have to wait until early access comes out in Q4 2025
:(((
how can we play against friend
fix multiplayer mod and this is the best game ever!
you can't, there is no multiplayer
theres no mod?
i learned how to jump
How lol
why does it feel like left to right strikes are so much more powerful than right to left strikes?
camera angle affects it
When another update?
GET OU
From what I've read next update is early access in Q4 2025
what's that last little class thats greyed out at the top of the menu>
whattttt
coming in a future update
Not until the end of the year
mod man
i have a question
whenever i try to play the playtest it says i lost without me even touching my opponent or being touched
how do i fix that
I don’t think there is a real fix currently, just an unfortunately somewhat common bug it seems. I’ll ask the rest of the mod team if they know anything
Can I turn off the double click to lock stance thing like having half swording not lock after accidentally double clicking?
Not in front of my pc so asking here first
ffs keep spawning with an injured arm
?
is your pfp from shangri la frontier?
don't even know lol
i stole it from someone
as long as it's not offense i'm taking it
no, and i think thats the stabbing toggle
Oh okay lol no it’s not offensive it’s from a pretty popular anime airing rn
maybe i should watch it
It’s a vr gaming anime, if you’re into that. Kind of like isekai anime
Lots of really well animated action, story is pretty decent
i'm doing my part!
Double left click should be for a quick stab
Single right click without holding locks halfsword
Any1 know how to uninstall OVRDTH mod?
just delete the files
still no word from the mod team?
I dont know where they are, can find the QOL files but nothing related to OVRDTH

nvm
ydxfhjklö
theres no files installed in the game folder, just delete the ovrdth file where you activate it
hello there
general kenobi
yah i forgot about that, just rememberd where it was installed
hahhhah u are a bold one
this nword is goin' crazy😭 😭
Is there a way to turn off that half sword hold?
eggard
just dont right click
dude fuckin double jumped
I want to half sword but I would like to fluently come out of it after it's clicked
Similar to how in most games you hold shift to run but the second shift is let go you stop running
just gotta get used to the toggle i guess
you can still hold right click and it'll do the same thing
Got it so hold don't click
ive found that the alt button works slightly differently between half swording and not half swording. in normal grip the alt button allows you to do stabbing movements, while in half swording the alt button is the stab movement. interesting
speaking of alt button has anyone figured out a way to change keybinds? already asked last night with no luck but figured id ask a new crowd lol
i dont recall seeing one
This game is amazing
once we do get rebind options i might try rebinging hand swap and stab to the extra buttons on my mouse and see how that goes
exactly what i wanna do
might be more optimal
also cant use alt for thrust when using latest version of ovrdth selector cause it uses alt+whatever to make keybinds for loadouts. Everytime i go to thrust i get that windows alert noise or whatever. so rebinding that would be pretty cash
others have said it works fine for them but fucky for me i guess
you could also turn off ovrdth when you arent changing loadouts
yeah true, kinda pain in ass but def better than that fucking noise being spammed in my ear lol.
The n word is automodded, please don’t go around automod by spelling it differently or shortening it

thank you Sir Moai 🗿
man i wish we had a map where we could do some whacky shit with the environment
Playtest has vastly improved physics and graphics
Yes
demo is walkthrough you get stronger opponents also has better graphics
blood is way more realistic on demo
Though the playtest is just the arena. The demo is rogue like
Yeah i only play a demo bc i enjoy the endless "mob" aspect and "upgrade" aspect
It’ll come back in early access
on playtest you can choose your character and you fight same level of NPC as your character
Its like your playing halfsword rpg
Most likely early access..
btw when it releases do we gotta buy it
50 dollars
well lets hope not
im sorry people ask this question frequently but um have we heard anything from devs since december
For you, $80
i doubt even gta 6 be 50 bucks at the release
aw man
oh wow combat is vastly different in playtest compared to demo
easier in playtest tbh
No more updates to the playtest, they’re focused on getting early access out in Q4 of this year
Demo you can just flail your way through, playtest you need to actually put in effort to get good
oh damn, nice
well its just me then i found playtest to be easier
demo is just scary too way they sneak up on you
and they dodge in playtest haha
when you least expect it
Haha definitely gotten a jump scare or two before
Yo am i crazy or does Willie kinda got joe rogans face
bro i been sayin same thing
Haha yeah it’s Willie Rogan
all npcs look like joe rogan 😭
everytime i go into photo mode and get an angle that looks especially like hhim it always cracks me up
jamie pull up that half sword game
HOw do i stab with sword
position yourself
hold alt or double right click
first get mouse sensitivity to max
When stabbing with alt (with swords), pull your weapon in closer to your body as opposed to extending your elbow out. It's much more accurate and stable.
Alternatively If it's a two handed weapon it is recommended to hold right click first, then drag your mouse to aim the weapon. Then from there double click and hold left mouse (you can try alt a little as well but clicking is more stable)
This is a much more stable and accurate stabbing pose, and a proper halfsword thrusting stance.
To practice your aiming, there's two different ways you can keep your FOV.
Third Person- with Low FOV, so you get a closer view.
or alternatively;
First Person- with High FOV, so you get a wide view of your weapon and it's positioning.
-# note, this works best for polearms or two handed swords
[Watch This Clip to see it in action!](#game-footage-🎮🎥 message)
in the settings way easier to swing that way
imo best weapons are long sword and axe
big axe tho not small one where character holds it with just one hand
they should add guns
fr
shotguns would be crazy
light em up with a glock
a rock and sling would be pre funny
so is your own custimization getting added in the next update?
like fighting 5 knights as a peasant would be kinda cool
or 10 peasants versus knight
who yall got winning
you can do that
i want shaders but i dont wanna go through all the hassle
In game, 10 peasants for sure
but peasants can spinkick
can npc peasants spinkick?
we got full maxed out armour tho i doubt spinkick doing anything to that
imagine they spinkick right to the sword lol
getting leg cut off
some of the shit ive seen them pull i wouldnt doubt it
does anyone have a link to a good mousetracker for streaming and videos?
dude one time ive seen a peasant do a full on takedown
i go into a blind rage when they grab me, all cards off the table at that point
i see red whenever they grab me
mf just grabbed me i jinxed it
i wasnt aware there was a strength setting?
yea open settings then go in 'game'
you can adjust it there
set npc damage
to lowest and see if you can beat them
its nearly impossible
ohh but thats just damage in general not just grab strength tho
i gotta say i really like how when you bash weapons it creates sparks
body cutting in half slash just becomes a small wound
yeah ive used that to practice parrying n whatnot
yea fr detail is on another level
anyone have a good link to a mouse tracker? i have been unable to find one
just found this on reddit
i was just searchin it too
couldnt find it but hey @still pawn
ngl they should add bjj submissions in the game
and like a bar and whenever it goes 100% npc is unconcious
some npcs tap before they pass out
i just knocked a guy out with a shield
im excited for whatever the released games maps will be
js headbutted the guy he dead asl
Tavern brawl for peasant tier would be fun
when’s the next update
whats everyones favorite guard stance
when’s the next update
dunno
stg some of these willies are blowing fentanyl in my face or sumn, no way buddy with half n arm knocked me out
what’s the best way to fight
the way that kills the enemy
No more updates. Next release is early access in Q4 this year
depends, spear is op as hell but gets boring. everything is viable
bunch of weapons are noticeably easier to use than others and after a while youll prob find yourself avoiding them for that reason, but in the beginning whatever works
Personally, a polearm or a long sword are the most practical for killing your enemy. The halfswording is so OP and versatile. It all comes down to what you like best though
polearm/halberds are so fun
stabbing is fun
poke counters halfsword
revolutionary feedback
how are u guys so good
u used to be able to grab so well now half the time it only works 1 one hand
performance enhancing drugs
Not if you swing it around fast enough
high dpi sucks
low dpi allows precise strikes and realism
high dpi = flailing left and right boring kills
mp will be so fun th
dont think mp will around for a while
local MP is already something they have
sadly im alrdy bored in game mp makes it fun
from what i understand
is it possible for public access or just devs
devs
The simulated physics are really difficult to get down on an online setting ive heard
online MP is likely not to happen
i guess why local is a possibilit
Split screen is confirmed to be coming. They even had it at the Japanese games show a while back. And there’s a split screen mod for the demo. But full online multiplayer, MAY come after full release but it is not a focus in any way
But you could do local MP and use shit like steams coop stream stuff
Is there footage of the local MP from the japanese games show?
Not from the game show directly but there is a video floating around of the devs playing split screen, I’ll try to find it
halfswording = win
Not if you lose your head before you even get the blade close enough to me
ai is dumb tho
what is this demo and why am i stuck playing in some dark zone what happened to the old game
the playtest is the arena youre prob thinking of
Think you just request it on the steam store page
im doing that screw this i dont like the dark zone
There it is
tho spear is solid
stabbing is very underated in this game
one stab is usually enough to incapacitate enemy
fist fights are fun
until they fucked up grappling yeah
used to be able to grapple so easily now like i can only rlly grab w one hand
starting a swing with a thrust seems really good
a lot of severed jugulars have came out of that
the ai is so dumb u can literally walk forward and stab
usually when they raise their sword up or reel it back
thats not very fun though
quick stab and lunge forward
and if ur being bumrushed just use halfsword
we definetely need some ai control sliders
like aggressiveness and counter sliders
Can’t wait to kick people into the pit
time to skidadle
imagine cavalry
guys how do you put a weapon on like your back
If it doesnt auto holster it by holding e or q i dont believe you can
oh thanks
Main release is gonna have to have that Wii thing that would come up eventually and tell you to play outside lol, game is way too addicting
it'll be even more addicting with progression
i mean you could try HEMA irl it's basically this
always wanted to
like dude being able to make your own sword will be sick
i hope we have customization for armor too if possible, like making it a certain color/putting emblems on it
everybody's secret desire is to become a knight a weild a cool sword
now that would be peak
like the 2k series
we could have asymetrical armor
customizing armor would be really fkn cool
actually yeah
asymetrical armor is fucking awesome
being able to slightly adjust the model of the armor piece would be cool
single pauldron and jockstrap is all i need
roman gladiator type armor
having both pauldrons when going for a light/medium armor look just doesnt feel right
you gotta go for only one
yeah i wasnt aware what a pauldron even was til yesterday when googling for item codes and was disappointed when i spawned it in and it was a double unlike the photos on google lol
i hope the limits of customisation on weapons are relaxed so we can have anime sized swords
cloud from final fantasy type sword
i think the game should lean heavily into that design aspect of making your own style. the combat allows for freedom with how you play, adding custom weapons along with that is a cherry on top
i just wanna have the option to make a beautiful sword
yeah id love that
hell, give me
the bollocks dagger
I can see them doing that but keeping the weight realistic so you wouldnt be able to swing like hell, which personally i think would be better
maybe not full on dragonslayer but big sword i can see
honestly i'd love a sabre in the game im surprised there is none
closest we have is falchions
or a rapier
we NEED a double handed falchion
thats callled an axe lol
rapier is cool ig but i dont like the way stabbing feels in this game so i'd probably hate it
no like a longsword thats a falchion
that would be heavy
whats ur guys favorite weapon in game?
i like poleaxe, it feels a little stiff but you can fix that by just swapping hands constantly to make for more smooth attacks
longsword or mace/arm shield is where its at for me tho
billhook has some crazy fucking range even when half swording
yeah longswords are pretty much the jack of all trades of half sword
they can be stylish or brutal its fun
decent reach, decent maneuverability, decent stabbing, slicing and chopping power
one moment you're doing a clean asf parry and riposte, the next moment you've got someone up against the fence with halfsword and cutting their head off
the only thing swords cant do that well is bashing, but its still possible in a pinch
case in point
unless they add mordhau
nah even if you cant hit the throat against armored opponents you can still smack them hard enough to knock them down
its just hitting combos
yeah its just swords arent optimised for that like maces are
seriously tho devs please add mordhau it would be so funny
"i paid for the entire sword i will use the entire sword"
The little head wiggle lol
HALF SWORDD
today i learned mordhau isnt just the name of a game
and yes they should 100% implement that lol
lol
does trying to start the game on dx12 instead of dx11 nuke anyone else's memory?
I thought dx12 was supposed to run smoother
bunch of memory leaks apparently
is there any fix? I saw a post with someone saying they were getting 20fps better on dx12
I've heard that dx12 is more unstable and demanding but I've never heard it run smoother
.
.
hi gyo
Unlikely they were getting better performance in DX12 imo, the crashes are also a known bug

dope overlay
anyone know if there is fracture/bone mechanics or just when enough damage has been registered the limb will go limp
high damage to NPC or Player will straight up break bones, that's from my experience tho
right on
how do you master throwing the buckler
become the captain medieval!
I need that mouse tracking thing. I just wanna review my own playstyles.
it's called Tubomousetracker
looks super sketch but if Ovrdth do, I follow 
yo devs as a VA I would totally be down to do some lines for yall
Is it bad I have 80 hours on the playtest already?
