Maybe 
Yeah maybe..
Is there a way of fighting as the baron in the gauntlet mode? (For example being able to fight against the bosses and so on)
I don't think so
damn, guy looks like you caught him with his willie out. 💀
It would be funny to just start fighting from the beggars and go all the way up to knight
You could saveglitch it but that's locked to beggars I think
sadness
@copper creek , do you want advice or
k
I use halfsword to throw longswords, with practice you can get midsection pokes from long, I'd just go with a thrust though
Is the golden knight actually possible to beat
ye
is it easier to dismember in the demo compared to the playtest now? kind of seems like it but not sure
yes
its very easy
just wack em
how can i play ultimate challenge without crashing midway through?
dunno
lower graph settings
put low graphics and gore to gentle
just a bit, you can up the gore slider to half for the same experience I think
I don't think thats meant to look like that
damn... 5070 to still have to play on low graphics
ok I think there's some other issue then
cpu probs
I never crashed and I use a 1050
crazy intesive
this... uhhh... nah
wierd
oh was curious since it seems almost too easy to dismember willies now on the default settings
He has the longest weapon in the game and it pretty knocks out on the first hit. Also he just sometimes pushes me until i get to the ground
ok I don't know what the problem could be then, because I don't crash
memory leak? 😭
i will just have to slam my head against the gamemode until i eventually get a run with no crashes ig
uhm, a commoner just got an hearth attack seeing me
footsies, don't get hit in the head, and don't get stuck on his weapon (easier for him to push you)
Well that was one of the issues that I didn't have, I used the spikey thing and wacked him a little bit in the head, he never was aggresiv or attacked
WHAT
morningstar? mace?
the fame killed him
i have used the spiky thing but id feels like it doesnt do damage
I killed an ennemy and then a dude that was in the back put his hand on his chest then collapsed
the militia weapon
its a gamble
seems like that
that one spiky spear weapon I think it's called the placiant or something is pretty broken against willies without armor or with little armor
Get a Radeon I’m on ultra with a 7800 XT
and if you ever feel like you are simply stuck with no improvment methods, there is always the game option in settings
i've tried to put the max damage to npc's but it doesnt help
im an nvidia and intel enthusiast, it would be against my moral code to use AMD
well then I dunno
just go to menu each time close to death
not sure why I've seen some people say the hoe is the best weapon in the second tier
its one shot very easily
and it is long range to
At least it’s not as bad as console wars lol
I've always have found the pitchfork to be the best
axe
Intel was good when the 12th gen launched. newer ones just overheat and break. AMD is superior until intel makes something good again
since even if you set it at the lowest amount of damage you can deal it still one shots everything if you get even a decent jab in
while the hoe, axe, and other weapons are a lot more difficult to use at the lowest damage dealt to the opponent settings
Nooo I just got killed my commoner's grete champion then got smacked in the abyss 
how do you do that btw?
nah not really by the axe, just gotta be a bit more consistend with the side swings
free mode, click a tier, quit, enter again, go free mode, play, now you're locked to beggars
yeah unless you headshot, use the mace, way better
so you go into free mode, then click your desiered tier, quit the game?, go back into it again, go freemode, then play?
altf4 to be precise but yae
okay
most willies will just walk into your pitchfork and instantly surrender or die if you just flick the pitchfork in their way as they start to walk to you to attack
are the willies from ultimate challenge different? their swing speed is like the third boss
ok you need to explain to me what willies are now because willies and swing speed in the same sentence
You never know what lurks in the dark
halfsword hype moments and aura part 249
hello everoyne
how are you fine thank you
touch it
I wish I were a bird
I did towards the end ❤️
The willie?
america ya
you shouldn't touch willies without consent
im hating this game now
i trying the perston an this time and BRO that its absolutly madness
What about with it
ive reached the final bit and i keep getting killed by bull shit ways to much
🔥
like i get pushed he cuts my head off
Skill issue?
sure
For your pleasure
can you beat someone in halfsword with their own limbs?
at first i thought so but as i kept playing i didnt
Yes
2 e; clip is GORGEOUS
yes unless they get phantom limb
zqht q ;qster strike zondeful bro
non-weapon items dont seem to do anything, I tried also hitting people with box lids from the abyss and nothing happened
is it just me or does headbutting do nothing anymore
yeah was curious about that since I tried beating a willie with his own arm and it didn't seem to do anything
second clip blow my mind bro what strikle SO CLEAN
You need momentum broski, running start and it slaps
half sword hype moments and aura part 250
i do T-T
I’m sad all my old banger clips are on the pre-gore demo
my weapon keeps falling out of my hands im not even damaged anyone else have this problem
nope
it barely does anything when i use it
Can we not share screenshots in this chat?
welp it keep happeing to me and my dumbass character dosent know how to pick up and im raging sadly enough
no we can
That sucks
can you give me more info
just yap
like
can't really headbutt them, but just charge at them with your head down like a bull and it'll work
You need to be level 2 due to raid issues. You can post them in https://discord.com/channels/1043854763189600337/1047194231875321856 while you are levelling up
Lets play a game ladies and gentlemen. How many stabs can one willie take before going down?
Guys I downloaded the trainer mod and it’s crashing my game and I want it off I went to files to delete but it’s still here plz help
finally
I mean there's this really bad problem where if the middle of the handle is not perfectly at or past the point your hand would grab it at its full extension, you just stick out your hand and are stuck in recovery, but then you just get closer and grab it so I don't know what the problem is
easy game
there's mods?
Yeah u don’t know?
no I only joined after finishing the game
At nexus mods there’s a lot
he either reaches for the floor or dosent pick it up
Delete everything and verify game files
How do I do cool shit with weapons? I try not to mindlessly flail them about but I also can't really do fancy stuff
if you could record this happening I'd help
The game too?
i got some clips
cus i go so pissed
alr post em
one sec want me to dm you ?
Hit browse local files and delete everything in there. You're essentially gonna reinstall the game
alr
i just need to find them
Stupid question but is there a kick button? baron mode is kicking my ass.
space
Kicks won't do shit except hurt YOU until you learn how to use them properly
Thank you
Take a bit to learn them
will do thnx
dame i guess i didnt clip it but i do got some others wich are still bull shit
shit
cant send the file is to big
why he so goofy
only way i can show em to ya is via discord call
Classic banger
that one sepecific spawn of sheild+mace is always tanky as shit for some reason
song motivated me fr
ok then no
ik
has anyone invented a grappling style yet?
Yeah, there's a video on it
amazing
its so hard getting them on the ground
I don't have the link or the name but it's something real obvious like, how to grapple in halfsword or something+
halfsword hand swapping with a polearm makes it pretty easy to just sweep someone with the back of your polearm after you hit them on the face in my experience, I've only done it like... fiveish times though? soooo, no tech promises
nah i mean grappling, i just got my first submission lmaooo via some sorta ankle lock
anyone know why my game keeps crashing at the last level?
cause i got a good pc, i put it down so i'd get at least 200 fps
You can try turning down the blood. Also please post your crashlogs in https://discord.com/channels/1043854763189600337/1359239086447136839 so devs can find the cause of the crashes. All info is at the top of the thread
Thanks
how much at cinematic?
Dont use cinematic for gameplay. Only for pictures. It isnt intended for gameplay
wait what..
Epic looks near identical but you get far better performance
WHAT GAIN IS THERE IN BLOODSHED 🤺
packgod should humble you
like 100
greetings! hope everyone's well. Does anyone know about armor piercing with swords? Got a clip where I drove the sword tip right through a chestplate and i'm wondering if it's a bug or feature
that shouldnt usually happen
but it will
first fix your goofy ahh haircut bruh, instead of talking on discord go talk to some girls ugly ass
damn wat rewsolutiopn
1080
Bolt to assume I'll ever learn
"bolt"
🥀
I am manifesting crossbows in halfsword as we speak
can i half sword crossbows
yeah it was my first time getting a clip, but since there have been a few others in this version of the game. Do you know if this is a feature?
they should make ir easier to grab weapons off enimies in the void. I grab everything else aside for the weapon 🤦♂️
yo i just wanna say that the ultimate challenge sucks ass
skill issue
yes
"yeah, i can tell, youre not flossing"
try crouching
yooooo
it's very hard, I just beat it yesterday
that brings back memories
how it it a skill issue?
its definetly a bug, i've slowly slashed through plate armour many times
i can do it perfectly fine, meaning you have a skill issue
well lucky you. no need to call it a skill issue
well it is tho
james is that cool kid at the parties
okay mister captain obivious
yea.
hate me cuz u aint me
Hate us cause they anus
i wouldnt wanna be you.
and other reasons :p
you would if you wanted to pick up items properly
Fellas
Is it gay to breath air
How many burgers can willie flip
yes
i got a sick ass clip of me trying to grab a weapon and i was flung towards the other enemy at the other side
Post it
no
What I'mma do to you
🤤
i chopped off the champions leg and his scythe went through my skull on his way down to the floor 😐
scammed
Thats how it goes
lmao
They miss and then they move for another swing and chop your heart open or something
Gotta be mad careful of that scythe, it loves makin a trade
hail, halfsworders! can I practice in gauntlet without losing my peasantly progress?
just tested it and you dont lose progress if you quit to menu
much appreciated!
i dont know what happens if you die though
im gonna test that too cause im curious myself
im scared lol
WHY DID I GET CUT IN HALF WHEN I ONLY HAD GRUESOM SETTINGS ENABLED?
I wish there was a better middle ground between having a plastic knife and one that cuts you open in one hit
?
all knifes cut trough everyone?
Fun fact: I've cut myself [drew blood] with a plastic knife before
none do
I mean dmg settings
bro there is a slider
i cut someone in half with the small knife?
AND WHY DID I DIE FROM ONE STAB WHEN I SET DAMAGE TO PLAYER TO ZERO?
how do u manage that?
because its a STAB
dont answer it
Hit vital
a STAB to the head will kill you
Bagel I was cutting had a massive void and slippage occured.
player dmg is only from blunt
ur lucky to be alive, not because of that cut but because of how stupid you are
ok
you keep progress if you die too
quotethis
I've also cut myself with a butterknife :) that was when I was carvin an apple
no hablo
im reporting u to everything
irs, ice, dea, fbi
u name it, i reported u
enable -dlx11 in the starting options
the IRS? I own em.
Ice? They work for me.
DEA? I'm the ceo
FBI? I'm the head 😎
dont know if i spelled it correctly but fixes the crashes
it crashed with both, DX12 just runs smoother
Disable dismemberment, keep blood LOW [if enabled at all]
i meant as a genuine starting option in the steam property manager
no why would i disable dismemberment?
the blood one i did just now but i gtta go anyways
oh i'll try later then, thanks
-dx11
try that
no ur not
Because it helps. idk I don't much enjoy tjhe last challegne but in like 7 attempts it crashed 2 times with me on normal settings [4 attempts] and in 3 attempts [no dismemberment, mininimal or no blood] it crashed once [that was with blood]
nah i'd rather not play then yk
this is fair
yo is something wrong with one handed spear?
one handed spear?
why do I feel like I'm holding a pool noodle when i get spear and shield guy? am I doin something wrong?
yeah it seems... very floppy. the smaller spear-with-shield guy from veteran. I can't seem to stab at all it just flops around unless I drop my shield and use 2h
Spears in general are a bit weirdly weighted and physics'd, especially one handed. You should be able to brace it on the otherside of the shield, as was common for the setup irl, but... Easier said than done, still doesn't fix the main issue
Willy says 'hey' to Willette
Do not resist. Embrace the physics, lest...
Getting quicker at it boys 🙂
how do you even learn to parry an attack
i get stabbed in the face when i try to be skillful
use slo-mo and practice
I will when I can do my preferred attack without the damned spear yeeting me to the left cause its bonking into my belly
A lot of practice and deaths.
Turn your mouse sensitivity down, do NOT use slowmo, your timing will be off. I learned to parry in playtest before that was a thing.
what gpu?
bro sharted
Willy Brapula
Is it just me or are the mobs 10x harder to kill in ultimate challenge
I breezed through the gauntlet but now even the starting fights seem impossible?
The ramping up of armor makes it really difficult.
Their aggressiveness is tweaked to be higher to be more of a challenge as well they take risks normal willies dont
Yeah this shit's p funny
By like the 4th wave you have at best a kettle helm and a heater shield and the enemy have medium armor. It really makes things hard to manage.
i cut his arm off in 1 sweep then swung back and decapitated him in a matter of 2 seconds (i did have to grab his head for it to come off but uhh shh)
Ok so I’m not going mad, my weapons just seem like butter knives they don’t cut anything
I kind of gave up because by the fifth wave it becomes almost impossible to reliably deal damage to the heavily armored opponents.
Check your damage values in game settings.
Medieval selfie stick?
They’re both middle
Odd. I consider the ultimate challenge kind of a meme anyway.
You aren't really supposed to "win" as far as I can tell.
As I said the gauntlet up until that point was easy enough I had no problems making cuts but weapons are blunt af lol
Anyone have tips for dealing more damage with punches on the same damage?
Er, same damage modifier rather
Use gauntlets.
That’s another thing on the punches also, I literally was beating a guy all over the arena and even against the walls and he still wouldn’t die 
Eh I’ll try again tomorrow, first time reaching the ultimate anyway
grapple them
So there's no real form or technique or trick for hitting harder or more precisely?
Thats a bug that happens occasionally I stabbed this guy in the throat once and he just kept gargling on the ground for a whole minute till i finished him off
he may have hit me over the head but i sure as hell cut his leg off
There is but it's annoying to pull off.
Holding alt while punching is super broken, but doing it accurately is kinda hard.
Also, I just don't like the unarmed combat so I don't practice it.
Stright punches to the head do deal more damage but are inconsistant to land.
By using alt.
i made a halfsword garrysmod maphttps://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3464545883
is anyone else finding 'commoner' to be completely impossible?
nope
Use a longsword
Commoner is very weapon dependent
dudes
these bosses aint that hard man T-T
I did the run first try T-T
please bro's
If you use a short weapon in commoner you're in for a bad time.
Let opponents come to you. If carrnage is too difficult just do 1v1 duels. Use a longsword or spear.
that is one sharp axe
Also if things are still too hard, get good remember that there's a slowdown feature now with F.
i got you brother
not the foot!
lobotomy
Rx7800xt
They should add a mode for "no mercy" where the npc wont give up and its a fight to the death. That would be baller
i won
cheater!!!!
how can you post an image in here ?
?
how you getting more than me 😭
You heard him
-# reaction: 🗣️ 🔥
i've decided that im not a cheater
You know what, yall win, im done with the baron its complete BS, dude flew across the map and fucking annihilated me, mainly swinging his giant polearm around and getting a full 2 hits a second to knock me on my ass, then he literally managed to hit me so hard when i got up i flew out of the f*cking arena
is it possible to snap an npcs neck with grappling
-# reaction: 🔥
Well, shit. Well played.
Maybe a dumb question, but how do yall upload images to here? I cant find any option and drag and drop does nothing.
hit his head with a blunt
level 2?
you see i would, but see my message where he hits me over twice a second, immediately knocking me on my ass
What does that mean?
i had the giant golden mace and got a good hit on him right before falling
get level 2
alright soo
thats what i did
also
How do I do that?
try tweaking the settings in game, like draging player damage to 0
order a yappocinco
already did for this time
it still happened, player damage 0, npc damage maxed
At the risk of sounding like a broken record, how do I do that?
yeah np
aint no way a fatal error popped up just when i was finally making progress in the ultimate challenge
Still find it cool we can knock helmets off of willies
5 Views. Watch NECK BREAK SOUNDING LIKE A GLOWSTICK! (no mods) and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
I've knocked off plenty of hats, but i didn't know you could do helmets too. Thats cool.
I caught him on my bardiche pole and then pushed him down, kicked him in the head when he was trying to get up during a brave stand and when I looked back later he was surrendering with no helmet on
The only time I've knocked off helmets was when i took the head with it lol
The most bloodless shield disarm I've made lol:

PoV: You swing twice in fullplate
axe most brutal weapon
The humble hammer breaking kneecaps and arms:
I love doing this
I would share a clip but no perms yet
Bardiche is probably the best due to how lethal it tends to be
You can post in game footage when you aren't level 3
Oh well okay if you say so, I’m glad it’s running perfectly for you
why tf is the progression mode so hard
Nothing more satisfying than hearing a CRRUNCH and watching them topple like a tree
It's a clip i got from medal 😔
impossible to beat ts
It’s not impossible, it’s just a challenge
does anyone have a full save with golden armor i cant beat the final boss
I locked a dude's spikey spear with my sword and kicked his shin until it broke
Took me less than 10 attempts :)
Scythe guy was usually the only one that gave me trouble in gauntlet mode
bro i swear every good run i get a fatal error
I gave up on the very last challenge with the spawning enemies cause i'd crash most of the time
im on my 20th and cant get past the blue one
Turn fof dismemberment and blood brochachito
oh yeah i could do that too
Ive gotten to the final tier 4 times and every time after multiple resets killed by a pitchfork peasant at the begining.
feels bad
That moment when you only have a knnife and you have to go up against a sword/pitchfork
I'm probly in the 70s to get to the challenge, I was talkin 10 attempts at it in general
bots have autolock with their polearms, pointed straight to your groin
no mordschlag mid game 😡
No Shamshir trash game
are we gonna get multiplayer in this game or no
probally not
oh
Is planned
bless you
stg the bots got harder
Hopefully
Also, wille a bitch, thats all I'm sayin
I love it when I properly read an attack
just like AI reads inputs too
yh
guys is half sword better with grotesque or gruesome?
What's yalls preferred gore settings?
gruesome probably if it's the second one
Mines right at halfway for both
yeah halfway
Hi guys
how did he do that
less load on GPU and I just don't feel like it needs more blood
it's cool to have this option though
above gruesome, but nowhere near grotesque
i like the sound when you move the slider around
yea second one, thanks
idk i use gruseome because its medival times realistic
What is gruesome means?
Master level pickpocket at work
what
i use grotesque because it's more fun to cut people in half imo and my computer can handle the extra blood easily
its the second choice when u join half sword for gore
when fatal crash fix i destroyed my desk from anger
i was on barron about to win and it fatal crashed
i had a NO HIT run and was about to reach barron.
i quit after i got butchered
the real suffering in half sword happens psycologically
bro it was the soilder level and one of them held my arms and then i got cut up
im never trying it again
isnt it just fun
i turned everything down to min and i havent had a crash yet
no gore,nothing
gruesome is more realistic but grotesque is more satisfying
dosent it feel weird without blood
its very hard to tell when youre hit
thank you, THANK YOU, I thank thee, Much obliged to thee, I am in thy debt, My sincerest thanks be unto thee, I offer thee my deepest gratitude, Ever shall I hold thee in grateful regard, I am beholden to thee beyond measure, With boundless esteem and gratitude, I do thank thee, I render unto thee the utmost depths of my heartfelt appreciation, now and evermore.
ive done 3 barron runs and its pristine
Will the game have mods? It would be pretty cool an glock-17 vs sword duel
Mine heart overflows with boundless þanc, and with humbleness I do render thee endless gratitude, for thy boon is a light unto mine soul, and ever shalt thou dwell in the hall of mine remembrance
it already has
really? how can i get it?
What trainer mod do?
THERES A GUN MOD?
no
did you read
big sword go swoosh
no
shield is good
go to the video and go to description
this is awesome, did you thrust with shield?
So anyone can invande and change to an virus?
nah just a regular ol swing
daamn
well no
Should've ground and pounded him instead of making him surrender
if you're stupid yes tho
I really want to like shields, but it feels like my attacks have no power unless im 2 handing
just get used to it
momentum
i had fear of getting virus, i got once trying install people playground by gamejolt (I thinked it was an website for download games)
this has the same feeling of: "why are you depressed? be happy"
You probably could, but i'm pretty sure nexusmods would detect it and not let you post it to download
ok
bro it wont happen if you follow the video
or just take it down and ban you from their site
nexusmods is pretty trusted if you want to get mods for half sword
anyone know how to choose what ranked enemies you fight as the baron? yesterday i somehow played as the baron against unarmed peasants and it was glorious but everytime i load it up now im stuck fighting knights
One time on nexus it had a mod labeled as suspicious/possibly a virus, but thats the only time ive ever seen it. nexus is usually really good about that
Happens to me alot, i think you just launch the game as your previou scharacter as baron and just press play I believe
carnage against naked peasants as baron with great sword
OVRDTH's selector mod lets you save presets and use them on any tier.
also saves time hitting random over and over to get the loadout you want
I've yet to try mods, i've just been enjoying it by itself so far
After finding out you can switch grips on polearms it feels so nice
cheers
flail would be funny
is there a way to choose what foot i kick with
It swaps everytime
swear this just isnt true
I'd love more blunt weapons that aren't 2 handed
Yes it should be
I haven't tested it though so um not sure
I find that each time you move forward, the kick is on the opposite leg. not sure about backwards
I just sprint and kick anyways so it doesn't matter too much
ok it looks like whatever foot is ur back foot is the one that kicks
ye
Looks that way
so i had 0 points on soldier tier in gauntlent mode but after swaping to free mode and back to gauntlet i have 7??
hello
stabbing feels inconsistent
If you try standing still tho it swaps
I want to stab more
i just installed half sword and i cant even fricken run it do anyone have solution
I can't get the sword bro it's to hard to use
Try a clean reinstall
Spear is ok, i just run at them or use the range advantage
will do
Stabbing with a knife is way easier
It should be, but it also needs nerfed a bit
Stabbing is mai ly hard because with the physics it's hard to do the motion along with the mouse
Yeah some of the stabs go in very easily, but i don't mind it
The amount of times I've been instakilled cause a knife hit my arm is crazy
Omg istg
i hate fighting spikey spear the most
but getting my throat slashed gives bleedout time
Especially for the lower ranks
I got stabbed in my foot and died instantly before
ok i am re installing
LIKE the comoner boss us way to hard because he has a longsword and he's tall as shit and u get ass weapons
I just go sword
Yeah but it has no reach and I'm bad idk how to use it😭
Sword is very consistent for me when i was climbing gauntlet
my advice is to either just run in and stab or bait out his swing then go in
I just wait for the greatsword boss to swing and chip off his arm
hey why i cant send gifs
fisting Willie is my favourite thing to do
I had trouble with the scythe farmer boss
need to be lvl 2
U can block his attacks with the pitchfork or the axe
With the commoner all yah gotta do is bait him into an over head swing and either evade it, or halfsword grip and block it, then he’s all yours
After beating the spikey spear boss, it go easier after that
i asked the same thing earlier lol, yeah level 2
advice, you gotta drop the sword once you get to milta
ok thanks
Honestly I took sword every time and finished the gauntlet
polearm or glaive is the way to go
Nah u can js run at them with the pole arm though
yeah but the range gives you consistency
Idk I found it way easier with the sword
I just like to counter with sword
Especially if the enemy has a longer weapon
Whats yall's least favorite boss?
I mean it makes sense
And run in there with half swording
I hate scythe guy
Half swording and charging in was my go to method that usually worked
the hit box is horrible
Not everyone can aim with the pole arms very well though. They may give your more distance but landing blows can be very inconsistent.
Aye chat have the devs thought of multilayer yet?
I dodge his blade, but get bonked by the shaft 😔
The knight boss he always seems to take the longest for me
Alr
Yeah, I had to practice a bunch to be actually consistent
Mines either begger or peasant. the begger is super rng and peasants syth gets in the way constantly
NAHHHH FUCK THAT GUY 😤
Man why can he just plow me over and not trip this some bs
He’s so easy wdym
All the armored boss I manage to push them down and make them surrender
how does one beat the gauntlet
I just charge him instantly I always kill him
whatd you do
i be struggling
Hope ur game doesn’t crash lol
me curious
Weapons stab position charge forward
i raryly have issues with armored bosses cause i mostly go blunt late game
Going went axe against scythe
Usually he dies before I can get hit
I beat him with the pitch fork. Armor is your enemy 😤
Bomk on the head and theyre snoozing
WILDLY AWESOME DUDE
Bro this is so annoying each time i swing my spear too fast during the baron challenge the fkn game crashes
talented
PROOF the pitchfork is OP
Yeah that’s the real challenge with the gauntlet
easy
FR thoo thats insane mam.
If I could drop vids of pitchfork I would
I haven’t seen the baron I always crash before I get to him
skill issue
literally not
Turn off blood. Don’t play on epic graphics.
I usually go pitchfork until militia then polearm/glaive late game
I know I'm just joking
The problem is most of us have God PC's and it still don't work
doesnt change anything i tried it on low no blood etc and on high it keeps crashing when im right before baron
turn down the blood
no hes right
U can't see if u hit tho
jump
off
The PC isn’t the issue. Epic graphics is unstable and the blood slider doesn’t like to work with baron present
The spaghetti deaths always crashes my game without fail, if not that literally just armor spawning will crash it, my pc runs the game perfectly fine it’s just fatal errors
Ohh ty
liveleak gif
The game just has a lot of unstable aspects that are being ironed out. Slowly but surely.
i already know by the name
I just want to be able to even see the baron man :(
btw you level up just by messaging right?
Yessir
im falling so fucking easily
yup
yay
skill issue
honestly they should make it so when your a low level you have another third option to defeat a larger, more armored enemy and you get like 6 skill points from it
You get 1 xp per message per minute.
Dude i swear sometimes willy cant keep his feet under him
I've had hif trip over nothing so ofter
old version i barely fell
you arent special
Yeah there’s a clip my friend has of him trying to swing and getting sent up like 12 feet lol
well...
once u fall its over
your willie isnt special, just another for the slaughter
fr
Make sure you guys are watching your stamina. Also it’s recommended to not use lock on for the last couple of boss fights because the auto lock on makes you look up more and that makes you unstable with armor.
G is your friend
And getting knocked out by a sword he dropped (it goes from his hand and hits him in 1 frame)
Some silly stuff
I love getting knocked tf out by my own attack then getting split in half with a hoe
silly things
the leveling thing is so hard
last boss threw his sword into me after he dropped it
i could just walk into it and ill get split apart
honestly my least favorite boss has to be the reaper guy
My favorite is a run in the void I did where I got sent to the horizon and only stopped when I hit a fence so hard my legs flew off
Don't get me started with lock on. Its convinced im fighting the guy across the arena instead of the guy next to me
is there anyway i can get the version before this
Nop
In the old 0.3 demo there was this glitch where if you holstered a one handed weapon with both hands it could make you fly
I miss 0.3
you can keep the gore
itch io has some VERY ancient versions of half sword
Willie lost his willie
Technically you can play 0.4 if you have the play test still you can just run it through the files
YES
I have to go there
But if you deleted it or never had it, shit outta luck
i got that
but i want to play the abysss mode
but the old version
thatd be 0.3
i do warn there so ancient theres like no dismemberment nor is there knight armor tho
Hah yeahhh good luck
before it got nuked
That just doesn’t exist anymore
with the new updated demo
That’s impossible unfortunately
.4 all day .3? No.
Unfortunately is wild 💀
I'll have to look at it
dam
Well it’s unfortunate because he can’t play what he wants lol
I really miss the havoc and unpredictability of .3
it does have cool maps on it tho
like a dining hall map
and a winter map
Anyone know why there are some weapons exclusive to abyss? Like the weirdly proportioned handaxe or the pickaxe looking thing?
I also practiced alotta throwing n other tricks
HE’S GONNA PLAY THE NEW ONE. AND hES GONNA LIKE IT 😡😡😡
on .3
Real
which are useless on .5 cuz the way you swing is different
relatable honestly
anyone know why the baron is like 7 foot
as well as what x does and reverse grip
do they make your character take max damage or something in the ultimate challenge?
freaking game
why do 7ft basketball players win more than 6ft basketball players
like a fucking cleaver grazes up against me and I lose entire limb functionality
hilarious
You have to delete every last trace of the games file
Gigantism
how the flip do i do that
indomitable
I disembowel someone, they somehow survive, hit me in the shoulder and I die
One sec
yeah, but now that i think about it all the bosses in the boss challenges are like 7 foot, its just with the baron you can actually be 7 foot when you play as him
on average
Weak
IF YOU ARE STILL HAVING ISSUES WITH THE GORE SELECTION SCREEN BUG- WE HAVE A NEW FIX—
This is the new template that covers all folders for all builds.
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!
Bosses are the alpha Willies
historically the one who big can actually fucking point the spear to the head
there we go
that's why I'm asking if they crank up the damage in ultimate challenge for the player
no its when i press play on steam its as if its startign but then it says play again
what weapon
It does feel like ultimate challenge you dont land your hits as often as you should
this not me issue
why does that matter when I can see their insides
The versiontest54 file is the old playtest, if you never had it you won’t see it
my game wont launchliek at all
prob skill issue for me tho
yeah fr
It is the same concept. Shows you how to clean re-install
if it's a sharp one, by "hit me in the shoulder" you mean "they cut through my neck"
Ok wait just a sec
What is the issue you’re having
It crashes on launch?
verify integrity of game files
yeah ask him. He’s smarterer then me
He'S sO SmArt
Moai a smort boi
ahh
oh you mean what they were using
Please praise me more I deserve it
big brain
no it was the shoulder, like the blade was nowhere near my neck
I didn't know you were talking about moai lol
Well, ping me when you’re ready
if anyone wants trainer mod i know how
yeah, location also apparently matters because you can thrust through someone's chest one time and they instadie and another time it's a bit to the left and they are still fighting
I think he’s trying to reinstall
we love modding demos here
wow... just weird
Good question, not sure honestly
like I scrape a blade and suddenly I'm more incompetent than the fucking government
they probably cranked it down because no one could get me down in UC
Just don’t take any hits?
I think the ai for uc is also way more aggressive
I AM FINALLY BARON
at least in my experience they dont give you an inch
If i die now do i loose all my progress?
[Fatal Error]
well... if you're getting interrupt hits thennn yae
prob not
yes
I mean if they surrender they die
kinda impossible in ultimate challenge where I start out with a knife so bad I might as well use my fists (unless it's being used by the ai, then it splits me in half)
How to win: 1. Hit the enemy 2. Don't let the enemy hit you
true
so easy right
The cleaver is the best knife in the game wym???
wait you start out with a knife? I thought you had to beat the starting willie bare handed
Nobody who followed these steps have ever lost
I smack people with it and do blunt damage
Nah but it’s way more fun
There’s a knife laying in the center
knife is on the ground, have to pick it up
yessir, I was just taunting you (I think)
Right click halfsword in your steam library, press properties. Under General there’s a line for Launch Options. In there type in: -dx11
I usually avoid the knife and spin kick the first 3 people
GOD DAMN IT.
tried that
plus, the Willie I'm playing for some reason has worse balance than I do after a roller-coaster
I like fists and grappling more personally slamming their head against the wall then beating them till they spaghettify? Very fun
what sens are you using
lower-end
dpi?
it's not to do with my sensitivity either
650
weapon of choice?
Clean reinstall it is
none, it's ultimate challenge
idk man I didn't get knocked down until baron and beat the whole thing first try
I get hit in the side of the head light enough to not even get bruised, but still fucking fall over
ok
what does directX do?
are you running in the direction of your hit?
sometimes
Lovely
ngl I kinda forgot slowmo was in this game ;-;
if you walk backwards in the direction you got knocked back in your legs are not gonna articulate well enough that you can still stand, try running backwards with a mild concussion and not falling
Direct x is what a lot of games use to function it’s just different versions of the basis of the game basically
We're all swordfighting, this MF doing kung fu
That'll do it. Momentum is what's getting you. The swing might not be strong, but that doesn't matter when you walk into it
steam library on my D drive
As long as I have my arms and legs, I don’t need a weapon
should i be using 11 or 12?
Really shouldn’t matter? It depends on pc honestly
11 usually is better if it’s older
12 if newer
Test it out for yourself! If you can run dx12 pretty stable then go for it.
And yet uc crashes on both for me
Never seen the baron I rarely die I just… crash first
i have a good pc, but i still get fatal errors on 11, i'll still try it though
Have you tried turning down blood and gore?
Yeah
And running lower graphics
It is not your PC it is the game itself
I FUCKING HATE PLANCONS
Not a clue why it crashes so often
Did you delete every last trace of the files? In app data too?
Damn
Full clean install
I WILL BRUTALIZE EVERY WILLIE WITH A PLANCON
But my pc is weird anyway
this game bro
I can run max gore max blood on medium with 1050 ti 5th gen intel (carnage, haven't tried uc) idk what yer rich people problems are honestly
like, running it on low still crashes you?
Have you played the ultimate challenge?
My pc used to flash red randomly, whole screen would, made a new build recently only thing that carried over was the windows file, it flashed red once a week after building the pc, I think it’s possessed
On realistic blood and gore tbf, and I had no problem! not even frame drops (until last wave before baron)
So maybe that’s what it is but idfk I’ll just see what I can do to beat the hell out of it
the ha;f sword playtest isint even fricking there
Try going blunt only with no blood and gore.
Don’t look for playtest
It’s a fucking fatal error thing not performance based crashing, it’s a issue with something conflicting in ue5
Thats only of you’re trying to fix the playtest
I'm talking about the other one
well theres nothing in common exept games i have
no half sword in sight
Unhide all files
Like I can run cinematic at 60 fps no crashes normal game uc just, never lets me through :(
ok
Is the full playtest still out i can only get into the demo
Cinematic at 60 is crazy… 💔
The playtest has concluded.
Ahh damn
Yet I’ve never made it to baron 😭😭😭I almost wonder if I have to limit to like 45 frames?
how to unhide
Cuz at epic I run limited 120 since I was pulling like 250
And that was def causing problems
I would definitely experiment. The more work arounds we can discover, the better.
Now that I’m thinking about it it’s prob frames
I hate coming in here and seeing people cry and bitch at eachother because the game won’t work for them.
whatever im hopping on rust
Im just enjoying the demo tbh
Ngl bro uninstall rust and your problems will go away
I love the gore and physics
I wonder if the gore and armor spawns fuck with my game since I ALWAYS render everything
hell na bro friday night rust with the homies hits diff
Like it’s hating two instances of the same armor or smth
ony armor ive come across is a metal hat
I’ll fuck with that when I get on
I’m thinking it’s just the baron being present in general. Because I crash a lot while playing baron too.
Nah I haven’t even seen him
I crash before it lmao
It’s just the fact that he’s there and ready to spawn
Oh maybe
His coding being there in that level probably doesn’t mix well with other aspects. Like blood or armor.
Is he ready off map before hand?
what's the last wave you've seen? 4 knight?
Yeah crashed there
I tend to crash when I get super bloody hits or when I hit armor really hard
it's the baron
nevermind
It’s a CONSTANT problem
The odd bit
The first fatal error can be ignored entirely lol
I can just… keep playing
That’s weird…
Second one? Crashes
That’s what I’m sayin
what the first abysss version called
oh I've had one of those fatal errors that let you keep playing
demo 0.2 
Every time 
You’ve been told by a moderator that it’s impossible to access the old version…. Why do you come back every 10 minutes 😭
Hey in those 10 minutes they coulda brought it back 
Oh I bet
theres this thing i found on the internet
it got old versions
That’s a virus
someone archived it
Bro gonna catch a virus 💀💀💀
well, we know high gore amps damage because it makes it easier to delimb, but does it just amp damage entirely? I just thrust through someone's upper shoulder meat and they instasurrendered
cann someone check
Delete that
Oh hell nah
iima scan it
Actually wild to send that here💀
mb
Gotta be blunt here bro. You’re being very dumb on the internet rn
With the GTR pfp too, hurts my soul
I'm done, WHAT THE HELL MAN 💀
GTR pfp nword in bio and linked roblox account 😭 this mans a child
Read the name 😈
Hey it’s only cuz it’s the 34
33 and 32 better than the r34 anyway
speak for yourself
I'm sorry for even trying the game lmao
R34 had NO records broken every other GTR broke a record smh
