have you tried HEMA
nope
not really interested nowadays
doesnt have enough real world application for me to want to invest time into it
true...
90% of full armor fighting is wrestling tbh
ask any historian
there's still daggers involved
getting somebody in a chokehold is not the same as stabbing their throat
Does anyone know if the Devs have said anything about how physically unstable Willie is since the big update from Playtest back to Demo? It feels like you graze somebody and get force pushed to the floor and it was not like that before
I think they've changed his footing and the physics do NOT fuck with it
Tripping is funny but bothering
it makes me really wish you had more than 0.001% strength when on the ground
falling would be a lot less unfun if you could still stab at their legs or something
Tru
I wish you could get up quicker
I understand getting knocked to the floor winds you but is it historically accurate that even with no armor on it took a soldier 20-30 seconds to stand up from prone on their back?
That would be good
No to mention you have effectively 0 control of your limbs when on the ground so you can't even hold your weapon up to block or try to swipe their leg or anything
Like you revert to an infant when you touch the floor and have to age back up to walking in real time
You have like 15% but yeah
at least be able to weakly block weapons or gremlin at their feet while on the ground up until you are about to lose conciousness
you can grab and then immediately let go for some reason
You USED to be able to grab
My character is incapable of holding a grab for more than one second, if it even works right to begin with
Only if very damaged
if you're wounded your character will let go easily
I have not successfully grabbed and held once at any health
except im not wounded i fell over on my own
He grabs and instantly lets go

Sometimes flying directly at the ground, yeah
Just keep spaming the q and e buttins
THIS IS THE HALF SWORD CHAT GRRRRAH TAKE IT TO GENERAL
Whoops, My bad
Okay I’ll give you a good reason. It’s oblivion. You’re welcome
that just feels like trying to trigger an excessively strong collision when your hands teleport to their ankles
You did not actually have to delete it lol
That sometimes works
oh it does and its hilarious
I know, I picked wrong, IT moved to General now.
i just wish i could do more
I wrestled somebody
Wile in ground
Just grabed him
And sometimes he does the job all by himself
For me, it feels like Willie is enfeebled in the current update
Loses balance even walking in a straight line, ANY physical contact and he's on the ground, cannot hold onto someone for the life of him, is instantly winded-unconscious from any hit of any weapon, swings are slower and clumsier, stabbing is all over the place and weak
Willie is sick
It controls monstrously worse than the playtest to the point of feeling like the physics are the issue
Like the basic physics model is fucked somehow
Do you know the asthma bug?
I have killed the last two bosses and everyone inbetween missing an arm T-T
Willie just constantly loses stamina untill you loose
That's a bug?
Headbut or kickin?
both
Or a feature?
U see deez feet?
With no irony, I genuinely believed that was just part of balancing because it feels in tune with all the other issues
Dam
wooo beat the commoner boss
Be prepared
At what point
Spoiler: every boss has ludicrous range. Be ready for that.
anytime i have blood and gore
sometimes it takes longer sometimes it happens as soon as i hit someone
I can't select a gore level when I boot the demo, anyone know of a fix?
Ah yeah. Make sure you’re running on dx11, turn down blood and graphics if necessary
go to game settings and change it yourself
You need to do a clean reinstall
One sec
Delete all files relating to Half Sword existing in your local files. Be sure to back up your screenshots folder if you took any!
Navigate to and delete each of the Half Sword folders located in the following directory.
C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common
C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\HalfSwordUE5
Finally, reinstall Half Sword Demo.
Please note Appdata is a hidden folder by default and you need to enable show hidden items in the file explorer.
yeah thanks bro I didn't need that
aaaand tot he abyss i go
thank you
Also this is definitely more an opinion than a serious complaint, but holy shit the Advanced Bat-with-Nails is overpowered next to the other options
Blades being lightsabers does not help because it's just a giant area of effect that turns your arms and legs off
Tru
I think the biggest issue with game balancing RE: weapons is that they super over-corrected from the previous just-abyss Demo
They felt blunt weapons were overpowered and it feels like they brute forced it by making them all weigh 3 times as much and making the blades deal full damage from any level of contact, which to me feels really clumsy and definitely upsets the balance worse
True
blunt is still viable
if you go into settings and adjust the gore value lower it makes blades less effective as it takes more to dismember
Like I can't think of any point in the game where that stupid thing isn't the best option
Even against full plate armor it still has a load of leverage and delivers a lot of blunt trauma through armor, and the forty little blades make it way more likely to actually hit exposed soft points
Totally is one of my favoritr types
And less blood also affects but mostly on blunt damage
I was in shock
One of your favorites…as opposed to the only other type? 
I love the blunt weapons still- the flanged mace is probably my favorite- but I'm mostly complaining about blades cutting too easily
And I don't mean just dismemberment, i mean like your skin blows open if you just touch a blade, and the damage effect is the same on lower gore
What about grapling? And shields
classic
It just doesn't take the limb off, but it still damages
Well shields aren’t gonna cut likely, so blunt. Grappling you could say blunt too considering you’re not cutting them
Distracted you with the classic basket-tumbleweed trick
It’s not important I was just poking fun
And throwing?
Depends on the weapon
I wish I was good at throwing
Me too
why giving up or begging doesn't work anymore
I've seen people who can actually throw daggers in this game and I'm so fucking jealous
first person is easier
Fair
It does only the first time
you used to be able to hold it and ur character would beg until surrender
now it doesn't do anything beside utter some word
it still does for me
You can hold it still
To be fair that's true irl as well
With throwing knives and hammers there is literally no guarantee it hits blade first
The curse of being in first person
Accurate name and pfp for that video
Oh yeah well I’ve seen plenty of definitely not edited to get just the good shots, videos of knife throwing!!!!
YouTube wouldn’t lie to me
Fr thought crawling out of bounds would save them
S00PER L3G1T!!!1!! REAL (no fake!!)
Yeah but is way easier to hit them (not with the par that you want) than in half sword
You won’t BELIEVE what happened
there is if you know how to throw
I mean sure, but it's also easier to stay standing irl than in half sword, so that doesn't say much
Ooh sorry
Batman says no
And I trust his take on throwing shit at people
batman can suck my dih
Poor batman
I finished my new video and posted it on the offical reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/HalfSword/comments/1k74p1j/half_sword_the_movie/
how do you defeat enemy pitchfork
Bigger pitchfork
smaller knife? ok
accept your fate
victory? ok
Only thing I can really say is knock to the side and rush. Don’t keep your distance, that’s when they’re at the advantage
damn bro got moves
Man Im too ass for permadeath
we can't change the keybinds no?
Bro is doing it so calmly too
I degloved the main menu willy
i always grab b4 a stab
Does the game get harder after completing your first gauntlet? Gauntlet prestiged
clean
when are we getting loadout customization in free mode vro 🙏
it does not
i dont wanna refresh like 8000000 times just to get the weapons i want anymore
when early access releases
heartbreaking
Dang, I just finished gauntlet for the second time and I feel like I'm getting SMOKED
It feels like an update dropped between my playthroughs that made the AI smarter lol'
how u do that
if you fall over you can crawl
push the opposite direction you normaly would to get up
and you will crawl
@static spoke
thanks
what's up half sworders
Holy FUCK dude
I just fought the Beggar Boss
He got me clean in the side of the head with the axe, but because I had grabbed a helmet, it actually fucking deflected the blow
OG beggar boss was something else
Like not even with knocking me over, like the axe blade just flew off and over my head and I was able to slice him
That was nuts
one time i beat the og beggar boss without a weapon cause i didn't know at that point that i was meant to pick up a weapon
that was when the shears were hidden and there weren't as many items on the ground
i feel bad for the veteran boss because there's basically no way that he survies that fight
like he either beats you or you catch the top of his head exposed which is basically always a kill
btw have any of you realised that once an opponent is down, a surefire way to make sure they surrender is just start dragging them around the arena
nobody likes getting dragged
is it even possible to beat the last rank?
don't really need to drag them, I just grab them and hold them to the ground and theys urrender
is it possible to even beat the last rank bc i die everytime
yes get a long range weapon, keep your distance and be smart about it
the actual boss is easy
is pvp going to be a thing in this game
he flew too much they are involving
try harder
literally sums up my only complaints for this update
I like the new mode, I run the game better, I like the slowmo, but the combat just feels off
nobody knows
I know
tru
hard
My biggest example for the "Loses balance" thing is that I, as the tier just below knight/2 below the top, was man-handled by some guy in "Brave Stand". Like, he had one hand on my shoulder, one hand hitting me with his sword or something, and just threw me onto the ground after about a second
there will be splitscreen
on PC
Meanwhile my guy just lets completely go of the enemy if they provide any resistance at all
Exactly exactly, amen amen 🙏
one of my favorite things in this game is when your weapon gets stuck in a dude and you have to block another dude's attacks while trying to pull it out
action movie shit
I think my all time favorite thing in this game is when you genuinely need your sidearm. Like if you get your spear stuck in one guy but another is charging and you have to use your sword, it just feels so cool and idk why
or when you get a guy on the ground and swap to a dagger to stab ez
Yeee it feels fucking sick
And another thing I noticed in this update, dropped weapons seem much more dangerous? Could just be that they are dropping them more, but it feels like I am consistently losing my feet or sometimes leg to weapons on the floor
IKR? Feels like straight out of a movie
any solution?
me
💀
yeah i have no idea how to get it unstuck
sometimes it does, sometimes it doesnt
maybe theres a way to get it unstuck but idk
I just discovered that while in the bug if you try to unseathe a sword you do phisics bug
my bad meant to show picture of peasant boss flying not him
I have one time pulled myself into the sky trying to take a dagger out of its sheath
well that guy got flung by my pitchfork of furry
Since when was this weapon so nuts?, this is the result of ONE hit
yeah it improved alot
Ultimate counter lmao
i have a thing for making enemy wilkies go high in the sky
"HAVING FUN YET?!" "ANSWER ME!" ... "I--Take the good- with the bad..."
What was the play? 😭
pardon me .
Mahito got bro
Watch CRUNCH and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
I'm so sorry Willie 😭
bro got cooked 😭
TH 😭
Is there any way to stop the random fatal errors
is it possible that I'm only getting fatal errors because I'm using 10+ year old parts with 16gb of ddr3 800Mhz?
what is that punch
me and my beloved ❤️
any solutions for when the game isnt responding and you cant choose gore level
thats how medieval combat was
if u fell u most likely were gonna die
Is there a mod or something to skip the Beggar stage of the gauntlet
its tedious
no wayy
incest gaming
🥀
doesnt work well as a game mechanic since its almost completely out of your control
your character just does that sometimes
yeah wont lie that sucks
yea there should be some kind of reliable crawl mechanic at least
A crawl that isn't slower than molasses, shoutout Boston
whatever that means
Bro doesn't know
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Molasses_Flood
Get educated
The Great Molasses Flood, also known as the Boston Molasses Disaster, was a disaster that occurred on Wednesday, January 15, 1919, in the North End neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts.
A large storage tank filled with 2.3 million U.S. gallons (8,700 cubic meters) of molasses, weighing approximately 13,000 short tons (12,000 metric tons) burst,...
i wish you could pick your opponents in free mode in general
How do I fix fatal error
Embed fail
So cute! Here's me and my beloved!
free drinks
baron sucks
mace is goated
TY
anyone else think the baron is hard to control?
like clearly he's stronger than normal units but his weapons are a little too heavy for him
especially the sword
yea
this game really really pisses my right the fuck off sometimes
the baron armour is only golden?
currently on my attempt for 3rd ultimate challenge. beat twice before. this time I'm just getting fucking one shotted every time
Turn player damage down
NPC damage up then?
maxed. always. I'm just trash at the game now, I think
billhook USED TO be OP
It still is my friend
I've been having some real trouble with it lately
getting stuck on the ground and stuff
It is, but less so, because Willie stopped practicing with his front arm
Makes the weapon stupidly floaty for no god damn reason

I've done it with a gleive. also a good choice.
also less floaty for no god damn reason
What tier is the two handed mace in? I only ever find it in abyss lately
I think it starts in the tier above militia
5th one
I don't know the name of it though
uhh question, why can the groin be chopped off independently
ah i dont have mp4 perms
is ts game rlly laggy rn or just me
Got to the last boss on knight level, I can do this, is there anyway to reset the sliders on damage to defeat? I moved one a little and am not sure if it's back in the right place
i hate/love this game LOL
love the update, a shame i cant see how many hours i poured into the og playtest and demo
dont hide it in ur library
nothings hidden, only shows hours for most recent demo
when the balance getting fixed
Please do not add feces to the game I have a crippling phoiba
the game bugged and i was sent to beggar fights
spin attack
terrifying
where on the ultimate challenge?
i was playing free mode and im going up against beggars now
oh
you mean the bug where you spawn in as a beggar on gauntlet, then switch to free mode and quickly press play
anyone know if the devs will go for historical accuracy or later on will add fantasy weapons like a giant claymore
i dont know
i kinda just spawned in against beggars '
maybe historical accurancy
finally defeated the baron for second time
probably historical accuracy
just based on how the game has developed so far
What is the estimated release for the game again?
I know like 2025, but isn't it like 3rd quarter
4th
Ohhh! So like october, november, december?
probably might do some fantasy stuff based on manuscripts on that time
Idk ask a dev
Yes
a lotta people underestimate just how much damage the ground does
That was one of the scarier fights I've had in awhile. Glad I was able to injure his arm so it wasn't swinging at me full force lol
bro i literally have the half sword main character variants
wait
im gonna send it on #photography📷
is there a way to reset your progress in gauntlet mode?
you could probably just play peasent and keep working your way up after each champion of the rank, act like you never reached the end
i send it
Damn, I don't think I've seen a Willie so unlucky to get stabbed with his own spear, especially in such a depressing manner lol
he died?
yes
if he died he has a
mental problem
dawg
hey i send some main character variants (like invincible) in #photography📷
revenge is so sweet
wow
im still in photo mode
you want a specific angle?
i feel this is such a silly question but i just started playing and im at beggar and all i can seem to do is enter the abyss. how do i start free mode or gauntlet mode?
press play demo
why ts game keep crashing holy
try dissabling gore specially blood
alr
THIS GAME STINKS WHY DO MY LEGS NOT WORK OMGGG
I AM A 80 YEAR OLD MAN FIGHTING
me when im dumb
yep
its when the boss grabs me by the knee and i just flip over like a oversimulated cat
and it takes 20 min to load to the abyss
bro
the scythe boss just hit a doom finisher on me
the early stages is luck based
if u explode from an axe
that is so boring

i said it like 3 times
idiit
idiit

My personality IS pink floyd
Yo no drama
youre being ragebaited
how is that a joke?
a dev
ur humor must be horrid if u think thats a joke
nothing beats a nice one hour halfsword session before work as soon as you wake up
Its ok guys
projecting much?
all this over me saying i fell over in halfsword
heya mod !! 👋
and im being ragebaited
settle down
okay
let me read
Bro fell in fall sword
local gonna start slobbering on the devs knob now
thats a mod bro
All the devs have one collective knob
😱
cerberus..
hiveknob
i now whole heartedly believe the devs are really just cerberus on a computer
there we go
dont see anything that disproves it
Interesting
yo are they ever gonna add multiplayer
so me and my friends can beat the piss outta eachother
#faq
splitscreen is confirmed at least
honestly if multiplayer DOES become a thing at least eventually i just know it'd be an absolute friendship ender, i love it
i also do wonder just how much the full game will have if this is only a fraction of it
my character just started to lose energy
and didnt recover
is that a bug or is that intentional
how’d he lose it?
running, punching, getting socked in the cranium by a mace????
cap brother, just watch his attack patterns
you got this
nah bc all the other ones are easier bc u spawn w stuff but on the first one u j get bullshit
the knife in the center is all you need
if you can auto thrust that into him he usually drops dead
i got him this time
i j used the knife lmao
but i j sliced through him
great nvm
i died in commoner
this is what has people angry?
he sliced you with the sword though, you gotta have adjustments to your settings
when i try that, i get thrown to the floor instantly and sliced in half
You should have been cut in half
maybe? I coulda sworee I didntt
sometimes they go braindead too
It appears I have not changed it from my murder mckiller death sandbox settings
when is full game coming out?
C h e a t I n g s h e e p
good that you're transparent about it lol
getting back to commoner to do it for realskeis
Am not!! (Intentionally)
Man this streamer named Caseoh sucks at this game lol

yes
Random question, I’d like to restart my gauntlet run, but I’m stuck at the final challenge and can no longer die of death, any clue how to reset or am I out of luck?
die of death lmao
You probably got to delete your save in the files or someshit
or just beat the ultimate challenge
that reset the progress after you beat it
Been trying to, but the polearms beat my ass, or maybe I’m not as good as I think I am.
cavemen said this
Agreed I might be bad with s words
The rematch of a lifetime
-# I used the right settings this time
not at all
if i need to land a critical hit that defines if i win, then yeah ill use it for precision
but it isnt often
I've literally never found a single use for it
Good for you
love seizing falchion users by the lapel and impaling them
Only when it lags a lot, which only happens when there’s more then one enemy for me, my pc so fine but not amazing.
generational sell 🥀
dinnae forget the helmet...
oh this one
😭🙏
for sure
he gave you that “yknow i never thought id make it this far..” look bro
We all have our bad days, bro just wanted to take a nap.
whos up halfing their swords
you know what? you’re right-what he did was based
anyone else’s feet been crisscrossing more often recently??? I have been falling an insane amount
yo
tripups have been happening a lot recently
I need the candle stick holder to be a weapon you can spawn with, tis second only to the broomstick of death
lmaooo just had the same thing ty
i popped off the baron's helmet in abyss 
Fellas
Is it gay to parry? Think about it, your blade is touching another mans blade. Which is touching his hands. And we all know Willy got his name for a reason
One message removed from a suspended account.
so apparently you can put people on your hip as though they're a weapon
trophy
wait no
it's specifically the targe
Who else plays in lowest possible graphic settings because they play on a toaster 😎
i just beat death by kicking somone to death while i had no arms
Atleast you can eat toast and play Half Sword
I got a 4090 and get no toast
#photography📷 message is this a mod?
Anyways live footage of what I can’t render
Nope
it's a glitch
I discovered it infact
how can i play as baron against other classes
doubt
I kinda did
it's like if someone discovered a new animal species and someone else a week later discovered it too
Do not dare doubt sir Belmont
who does this guy think he is
thats a bigass falchion
I shit myself for him

so after being in post baron void for a while, i think i've determined the best weapon for knights
half sworded warhammer
I want force lighting in Half Sword
this'n
(the best tool is your fists actually, but it takes the fun out of it)
what if fists are fun tho
I want willy to not be this man
Watch the stunning skills of Wei Yaobin, who has built a reputation as an "Iron Crotch Kung Fu" master in the central Chinese city of Luoyang. Wei started to practice "Iron Crotch Kung Fu" since he was 67. He thinks it is good for health. (video: courtesy of RT)
Billhook better
If I kick Willy in teh dick I expect him to not just tank it
voulge beats out all (except fits, fence, and gravity)
I thought that was the gleive
it is apparently not a glaive as I was corrected early on
tbag of defeat and humiliation
ah man i hate that i don't record these runs
i just hooked someones legs, causing him to fall backwards onto a crate
was super funny
it's okay, despite no recording I shal lvisualize it
confirmation it is pretty funny
wut
you can find golden armor in crates after a certain point?
Axe is superior
ever since update, i get bad frames :(
I beat your foolish axe with an arming sword
fell out, but yeah
Did you know: If you swing the axe (the one in the clip) very fast, it actually falls out of your hand from how heavy it is
So unbelievably posh
new goal is to get full gold
I counter with
Yeah it's really fuckin annoying, devs please buff gripstrength [and front arm strength on like half the polearms so they're not as lfoaty]
I counter counter
trying to connect with his other half
[De]Feet
A fair rebuttal. But consider the following:
I cannot beat that
If I recorded the time I threw my longsword into willy's dick I might have a chance
but I can't beat the axe catch in this game
haha. It's not hard to catch it, the hard part is having it come back to you to do so
crossed up ankles lmao
The best I can contest that with is this
shid no video embed
Bro got ankles
Silly spearman, arms are for falchions!
actually it's not a falchion I believe, I have no idea what it is, close enough lol
Willie played a game of chicken and lost it seems.
I love playing chicken with Willies
If I remember correctly from my time playing Warbanner and blacksmithing for money and exp grind, I think they just called that blade a 'war cleaver'
haven't played in forever, i'm praying the update they're gonna drop in like June makes that game what it SHOULD'VE been when it left early acces
The original game from like 06 has features, basic fucking features, that the sequel doesn't. mad infuriating.
It's basically impossible to sneak into towns to do stuff [typically rescuing captured allies] if you're high notoriety, so Warband let you just go "Fuck it, have a bo-staff and 1v4 the gate guard in monk attire" or pay off a nearby town to start a fire so your chance to sneak in isn't literally 0%
Warbanner? Uhhhhh 0% no ifs ands or butts. Get cught
God forbid you get to use your townware and weapons. Nope.
btw there are sidequests where if caught you CAN fight townguard in it so :) but that's me rantin about a mid game
We need a like 1% chance to hear the tacobell gong if we use a mace or something on a helmeted enemy rrealtalk

If I hit the Baron in the face with my hammer I expect this noise

Quick question from a player whose pb is the fifth rank I think: Should I make a short or a tall guy? Medium=
think im done with this game bro, willie just locked my greatsword inbetween his shield and arm and now hes stabbing me
it really doesn't matter
taller has a negligible increase in reach
shorter has the opposite
just get better at
blocking
spacing yourself where your weapons hit most effectively
and managing stamina
i haven't noticed a difference
yeah I',m not a "hardcore" player (yet) by any means. just play for fun once in a while
and that's perfectly fine
WHY IN HELL DOES A WILLIE WITH A SPEAR RUN STRAIGHT INTO ME TO CLOSE THE DISTANCE. YOU HAVE REACH WILLIE
wow youre meeting the bad ones
but thanks for the tips anyways
i fight the guys that keep away and just stab
He wants a hug, also why are we trying to give advice to our opponents?
lmao
dude this guy could have a plancon but he chooses to just slam into me with his body
truly a mind opening experience for this guy
LOL
oh thats nasty
12 ft tall willie cant hurt you....
Hi guys
i still don't understand
how do you manage
time to spank the small willie
mod
bro i tried with the enhancer mod
but my willie just
after possessing him
he just erm
suicides
practically what i'm saying
he falls over like a dumbass
and then starts screaming
just what the hell happened here
idk it worked ez for me
what scaling did you use
to spawn in the willie
like what value
He is aware.
Of the demonic presence inside him.
Willie knows.
He kills himself to kill the demon.
i put 1.7
shoutout to this guy for not giving
just standing there and screaming for 10 seconds now
he stopped bleeding entirely
i guess we can call it a tie
nvm he surrendered

Watch black belt in karate and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
something is off...
me when i crank the npc damage up to the maximum
funny enough most of these are at default damage, and the ones that arent are at a quarter damage
When this game gets multiplayer, it will be the undisputed best game of all time
you dont lose all your progress right if you die in ultimate challenge?
No
aight bet thanks
You get to try as much as you want
yeah i finally reached it dont wanna throw a keyboard into my monitor 
Oh you probably will
Why does it feel like the AI feel like freight trians while my wille is a fucking 98 pound twink boy who cant the or control the edge of his blade
Skill issue
Surely thats definetly the reason
thank you for giving me the answer to the universe
your mother is proud of your oscar
I’m serious. You just gotta learn how to control it better. I’ll give some actual tips.
the freight train is a real thing its not your fault, u cant walk into the ai in this game its like a brick wall now after the update
ok whats the best strat for commoner boss.. i joined just to ask (hi btw :D)
thank god i thought i was crazy
just dont act like your character is god 🤷
nobody is acting like that, but when your skin meets theirs, you get flung down,
Im doing fine at slashing and getting my blade where i want it. BUT it feels like its just not cutting
use your weapon not your entire body
Move your mouse with your hands, not the weapon. Change your sensitivity to about 1/4 of the bar. Practice moving your hand slowly, feel the weight and momentum of your weapon.
but their blades lightly kiss my skin and then BOOM there goes my leg
try to get a hit in before you rush in get them wobbly before you rush in
so how do you get the momentum to sink the blade?
willie has the david goggins mindset
Move your weapon so there’s tension and momentum against your hand, then move it the opposite direction quickly. This will give you good edge alignment.
once you hold click, youll be in posture
If you learn how to do this you can make the blade cut every time
swing the blade ACROSS, not flail it
bring it down horizontally across your torso in a straight line
use your body to force the swing, not just your arms
step forward once for a full swing into it
I never do full swings
i usually parry twice, feel him out with a light swing then do a full swing when he goes in for his own
has a high risk of slicing open your chest but if you time it right youll bring the blade down on his neck
whenever i fail i usually toss the sword and just beat the shit out of him while i bleed out
Full swings leave you open, you can get full power swings with small cuts, and if you’re trying to slice them, you don’t need power, just precision
Smaller swings give more precision
has anyone seen enemies trying to balance on one foot and their weapon when they had one of their legs cut off?

Watch quarter damage and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
becasue thats what i just had
i usually dont even go for swings
ive mastered the art of the takedown and the throwing weapon
okay i get it bro
ok sorry
I need to get good at that. I’ve seen people do it but I never learned
i tried to make a video but somehow i cant capture half sword with nvidia but it always sais "some app is preventing capture"...
practice with axes
throwing it is easy
whats hard is aim and precision
with a good toss you can hit full armor in the weak spots
boom, blade coming out through their shoulder
try minimum npc damage
minimum just isnt really possible but ill try
Spiked spear enemies are scary more than guy with scythe
guy with the scythe is easy tho
ik only one guy that had managed to shit on a willie with minimum damage while spin kicking
what does shit on constitute, i just knocked him down with minimum damage
how does one use a shield? it doesnt seem tio be possible to hold a shield up and swing with the right hand weapon? he always swings the shield too
I usually just pressing the RMB when I have shield and it raises shield on its own, blocking attacks.
Same works with polearms, which is making easy to kill someone with pitchfork by just running toward them
now you know two https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/k9N0cpXSbAeUoyoc_?invite=cr-MSw0cHosMjcwNTA5NDI
Watch minimum damage spinkick and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
oh dang nice
It is
well yes i just experienced it
Yeah I sent that before seeing the video lol
anyone have that guide explaining how to fight against any level
Wdym any level?
theres some way you can fight against any rank no matter your own
but i forget how
someone posted a guide on it a while ago
If you play through the gauntlet you can use any tier at any point
Is there a way to change the map?
ah okay
can you play against whatever tier you want?
tier is the word i was looking for btw sorry for the confuson lol
Yes, you have to work up to it by beating the lower tiers though, and you'll lose the progress if you die. Another way is with the Half sword enhancer mod
how do you choose the tier to fight against (without changing your own)
ohh i see
In half sword enhancer, it's a bit harder, I can explain if you want
Yeah, it will
But you continue your progress at the highest unlocked tier
If you're playing at a lower tier, it will give you bonus points to progress faster too
ah i dont think i put it right
there was a way you could, for example, be a man at arms fighting militia
without mods
it may have been exploiting a glitch
okk i see what you meant actually, yeah something like this but the other way around (me being the higher rank)
You can do this with the mod I mentioned
Well there's also the brave stand game mode
well yeah
r u ok?
Great game, though the middle-ending is a slog imo. Sieges are a lot worse in it [just storm the walls and climb the ladder, literally that's it.] Warbanner improved em a fair bit, multiple angles. Also the horsemen of the steppe are a lot less annoying. Closest I ever came to beating the game is like 33% of the realm conquered. It's a lot like a Total War campaign though, you'll probly never finish it cause the front chunk of the game is the best
Just got stabbed by my own sword... when my own sword was impaled in the dude lol
is there a way to reset progress?
Theres progress?
is it a bug if in the ultimate challenge the ais are killing each other
the classes
i just watched a dude kill his teammate
im now always at baron
but i want to restart
so is there a way to restart? or not.
How do you progress-
dude
delete all the game files probably
whenever i reload the game
Im not trying to troll you, I have just been beating the crap out of people at beggar
are you in free mode or gauntlet
the one that says score
Oh is that it
Ive gotten to the 3rd lookin one, but is it supposed to save
OH
I FIGURED IT OUT
no you intentionally lose all progress upon dying in the abyss
Yeah, I figured it out by pressing "play demo" lol
The game crashes when I pass the last stage ,who can help me
Idk I just beat the shit out of the first boss with a knife lol
try alt tabbing back into the game
first and second boss are easy, third boss is pray you hit his head
I didn’t really understand you ,how would the alt key help me ?
press alt and tab
if the game is still open
I tried this,but the game shut down completely every minute
set graphics to lowest and when you open the game set violence to gentle
how the fuck do you even spin kick? i dont understand
Made it to commoner
BRO CAN ANYONE HELP? IM STUCK AT BARON AFTER REINSTALLING THE GAME
RESTART PROGRESS ALREADY BRUH
good luck against the boss
I died on the second enemy cause I got poked and then suddenly split in half lol
does anyone know how to restart their progress bruh
i need some serious fucking help
the game is deranged if it dont restart after i delete the files and reinstall
this fuckass game doesnt want me to restart
devs
fix it
How to restart: Die in gauntlet
DUDE
WHEN I DIE IN GAUNLET
IT DOESNT RESTART
CAUSE IM ALREADY AT THE BARON
and nothing kill me
e
Due to incessant whining, if you reach the ultimate challegne I believe in the last update they made it so dying no longer resets progress? idk
so let me ask how long or how many tries you estimate it took you to beat gauntlet
when i die in gaunlet
it sends me back to the menu
with all my classes
and not the abyss
Yes u have reached ult challenge
Then beat the challenge
i did
I know the exact amount, give ro take 1-2. 7 [at the gauntlet]. Reaching it? A lot more
Odd that shud reset gauntlet
That's including 3-4 crashes cause demo build
the challenge is beat the golden knight right?
Well thats the end u have to go through waves of increasing difficulty first
With purple dude
yes
i did
but i beat the gold knight
and then i had the baron wearing all the armor
and the loot
Ye it does slund like u beat it amd its supposed to reset gauntlet
so do you think not losing all progress when you lose at the ultimate challenge is good or no
MY GUY CAN BARELY WALK
I got to the gold guy and he chopped my legs off :c
I was so close breh
THATS NOT EVEN RELATED
bye
GANG
No, all Willies are cousins
This is definitely going to be a picture of his tiny willie
Personally I'd rather it be an optioln you can tick
Sometimes the damage glitches out. I had an instance once in the playtest where I was legit half a body and I was just... perfectly fine
ok
guys how do i get past the first duo in the ultimate challenge
their teamwork is so fucking crazy
Try to have them walk in a single file line cause they can swing and hit each other
Usually using the entire space is good cause you don't wanna have their deaths overlap where gear is or it's gonna crash
Have had too many times where 2 willies decided to collapse together then game fatal errors
get lucky and take a willie's goedendag and just kill them with it
bryh
the fuckass game just said fatal error and proceded to shut down my computer
what
the only proble is getting that plancon in the first place
What specs u got might be needing an overclock or 2
1080ti 5600x
well that's the part where you should get lucky
res 1440p and dx_12 high settings
At least for me that helped I'm using a 1060 gtx and a i7 7700k
mmhm hope i dont have to fight the plancon with a messer
or even worse, A MACE
Overclock at ya own risk tho make sure ya don't do no silly voltage changes
and a tiny dagger
Mace is op if used right
yeah but against the absolute range of plancon
oh hell nah
Just gotta aim high and swing slowly cause ya stamina plays a big factor in ya damage
try switching to the other dx option
if you'r eon dx12 switch to dx11 if you're on dx11 switch to dx12
but it looks ass 💀
it doesn't really matter with small weapons because they dont take much stamina
ive been on dx11 this whole time no wonder why its not crashing my game
True I've just had too many times where I overswing twice then fall to silly stance
my pc is terrible
But all it be is a skill issue or just plain shit luck at the end of the day so is what it is
Yea dx12 id use if it didn't almost cook my pc the few times I tried loading into the abyss
your maximum stamina gets lower and lower each time you get hurt
dx12 and abyss is just incompatible
why does it keep crashing
Just gotta hold out for optimization in the future
stay in dx11 until they optimize their shit
Unreal engine 5 very unstable probably better to stay at dx11
BUT I CRASH IN DX_11 ASWELL
IT STILL SAYS FATAL ERROR
BUT IM GETTING SUPER GOOD FPS
Hmmm strange
I use outdated specs so I can't really help much on this cause I struggle to even load the game lmao
ok there was a time someone kept on comlaining in the discord and the shit just somehow works
just ignore it and click on the game, it wont really do anything unless you close it
are you being sarcastic?
