Idkkkkk, he's got arms, if he begins learning under a clown he could learn to handstand walk to come fight you

And it’s stored in your steam halfsword file

meh i just gotta spam S to get it

this game has the perfect balance of silly medieval fuckery and seriously realistic gameplay

gritty shard
#

Just joined this discord to say I was playing the regular progression mode and I always have trouble with the first boss but this time it spawned two bucklers and I dual-wielded them and easily beat him and I think I created a legend

#

For myself I mean

#

He's a legend to me

When i get to abyss because of dying on knight, I need to go through it, and when I kill the boss (the peasant boss) it shows me the farmer icon, and i need to go further.... does it really work like that that i need to kill every boss in the abyss to get my role back?

gritty shard
#

Lack of point control is so annoying. I would like to put the tip of my pitchfork (which btw I'm holding with a very wide grip so it's very well controlled) exactly where I designate, not just blindly push my arms forward!!

oh my gosh

DUDE they need to fix this fucking game unfun awful ai just turns, doesnt even TRY to hit me just looks at me and their weapon insta kills me not to mention boss 3 just holding his sword infront of him and it just goes into your neck like OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDDDD

solemn holly
#

these are unfortunately skill issues

dapper oyster
gritty shard
#

They should allow you to choose to keep whatever you found in the Abyss after dying and making it back to life, because I had the coolest gear and now it's gone

#

I wanted to use it for longer

#

Two bucklers and a knife for emergencies

#

Light arm plating but no shirt, and a neck plate of some kind

#

The coolest character I've ever seen

dapper oyster
#

Honestly the easiest method of murder

#

And second funnest so far, behind fist combat

gritty shard
#

Double buckler is just fist combat with big metal fists that can't be harmed

#

It's the best

dapper oyster
#

those*

#

I was literally JUST putting a clip of me killing a guy with them into a piece of my college work😭

gritty shard
#

Yeah the little shields that you hold straight out in front of you is called a buckler I think

thin raft
#

Is there a way to reset the gauntlet mode once you beat it??

dapper oyster
gritty shard
#

No yeah I mean punching people in the face with the little shields

#

Holding one uses it like a shield but holding two and clicking LMB and RMB puts you in boxing stance, just like bare hands

#

y'all think he got hurt?

dapper oyster

nah nah

#

put some ice on it

#

Wait I just noticed the bruises

#

What kind of punches is this man throwing to be producting such injury?😭

gritty shard
#

I have a decent gaming laptop which I get doesn't hold a candle to a custom rig but it can handle way more graphically intensive games than this one so why is it so choppy for me???

# gritty shard 11. Should I try 12?

dx12 has shaders and Lumens activated, which are similar to RTX in a way.

If you have a dx12 enabled graphics card, it's worth a try, but you may also experience more lag and crashes.

If you do, swap it back to 11. You can do it manually from the steam launch options if it gets stuck in a loop of crashing.

#

dx12 has been optimized quite a bit with the demo update here and it runs better for some people, but it's a mixed bag.

gritty shard
#

Hard to say if it's better or worse honestly

#

I just know that multi-person fights are impossible due to the lag

Even in the lowest graphics settings

do you guys play with controller or mouse and keyboard?

frigid gull
#

It's probably a skill issue but I find it pretty hard to swing the weapon using mouse

light monolith
#

you can't use controller

frigid gull
#

yeah that's what I figured, I just saw some really clean controls

#

and I was wondering

pallid oar
#

oh dang

#

hi, i'm trying the demo and my GPU is not being used at all, already fiddled with all power settings and Nvidia and Windows graphics settings

#

i have an intel i7 9700k and a 2080 RTX, so it should be running fine with both?

Why do I get knocked over so much in ultimate challenge?

#

it barely happens in the normal mode

is there any way to change the key binds ?

I need to stop trying the ultimate challenge (on equal hurt values this time), its making me hate the game.

#

Bruh it was using the wrong gpu

mossy merlin

Why is that such a common issue?? Just use the good GPU, games!!!

pallid oar
#

how can willie lose to a kick vs knife

#

kick vs weakest weapon in the game

i wonder who won

I cant downlaod the tech demo why is this happening?

#

the only baron armour is golden?

elfin coyote
#

and one armor on knight is darker

young oriole
#

Why does every knight just go half-sword mode and walk into me wildly swinging

light monolith
#

I recreated the first I ever took

severe hazel
#

how do i approach enemies that have ranged weapons when i have a sword or something?

young oriole
#

I usually just try and block their weapon with mine, get close and then stab

restive dawn
elfin coyote
#

no specific faction

young oriole
#

Cause every knight battle I have just ends up being them halfswording me to death or I fall over and they still halfsword me to death. It's very annoying just getting bumrushed everytime I wanna fight a knight

severe hazel

poke the air

#

for real. If you poke with alt they back up

thorny perch

or just do this

young oriole

#

but actually how do i downlaod it isn't working

young oriole
#

through steam, big mike

wooden star

thats what im doing

#

idk why it wont download

dark jay
wooden star
#

more than enough

dark jay
#

Are you downloading it to the right drive?

wooden star
#

ye

dark jay
#

damn alr

wooden star
#

idk y it wont work

dark jay
#

Which version are you downloading?

#

Playtest or Demo?

wooden star
#

demo

#

if u check steam its the only option

dark jay
#

Ik

wooden star
#

i tried using the playtest that I alr have downloaded and it says the game isn't out yet

dark jay
#

Yeah, they took down the playtest. It might come up right before the next big update

light monolith

#

how long did it take you guys to finish ultimate challenge?

upper wigeon

#

damn, im like still trying after 6+ hours

young oriole
#

Same

#

I just keep dying in bullshit ways

upper wigeon
#

It's hard. I got lucky on a few of them. Where are you getting stuck?

modest sorrel
#

how can i play online?

upper wigeon
#

wait and dream

severe hazel
#

i dont know how to get close range

livid fern
#

I BEAT THE BARRON GUYS

#

GUYS

severe hazel
#

since they have their spear like aimlocked on me at all times

young oriole
#

Like, I'll just trip and fall, die. Land in the abyss, not be able to stand up???? and then boom, run over

upper wigeon
#

I made a tutorial on spinning to close gaps, you can try that out. Otherwise you have to beat the pole away. If you decide to try spinning, practice in militia free mode for a while

#

@livid fern nice B-)

young oriole
#

It's not a bad idea to just knock long weapons out of your way, and then quickly close the gap before they regain composure

livid fern
#

barron is mid to play as

#

im going back to veteran rank

#

best rank if you ask me

upper wigeon
severe hazel
#

knock the pole away by halfswording?

upper wigeon
#

Vet is also my favorite

livid fern
#

vet is peak

upper wigeon
young oriole
#

Idek what I like, every class either feels too easy, or like a slog

upper wigeon
#

do you like fencing and winning from parries? or finding gaps in defenses and punishing?

#

or memes?

young oriole
#

gaps in defenses, but I'll win the fight anyway I can

livid fern
#

honestly whatever seems the fastest

young oriole
#

I try to be slow and methodical, I like using the bigger heavier weapons

livid fern
#

you guys should check out my hs youtube channel... on god..

#

i need to upload new stuff..

upper wigeon
#

in commoner you get rewarded for fencing more so parrys positioning etc, soldier and vet have different ttks but are similar in you find gaps in armor and a lot of variety

#

militia so many polearms so it's a bit more gap closey

#

then knight and MAA is all about stam, head strikes, and grappling

#

imo

young oriole
#

just died yet again to a knight who never got out of halfsword mode

#

They just bumrush me, my weapons get caught in the arms, sometimes they completely disarm me

quartz sigil
young oriole
#

just tripped over literally nothing, hit my head and died T_T

severe hazel
#

this is the most fun game ever up until ultimate challenge

bold oar
#

is it possible to break necks with a kick?

young oriole
severe hazel
#

you cant, only offline

#

well vs bots

young oriole
#

I haven't seen that

snow gulch
#

you're likely getting it confused with just NPCs cause theres no multiplayer

young oriole
#

It'd probably crash the game T_T

#

prob not for awhile

#

It's still in early access, bro

snow gulch
#

they'll explore the possibility post-release i think

#

check #faq it has something on it

zinc nacelle
#

do u guys use dx11 or 12 ? what runs better.

upper wigeon
#

11 for stability 12 for sunglasses

zinc nacelle
#

sunglasses?

upper wigeon
#

😎

young oriole
#

I just wanna not get halfsworded onto the ground and then stun-locked until a timer makes me lose

severe hazel
snow gulch
young oriole
#

The NPC's refuse to not halfsword if they're using a long weapon

young oriole
#

It's so frustrating

snow gulch
#

and yeah they need better AI in general when it comes to halfswording, i rarely play full armor now cause the AI just spams halfsword when doing longsword and it makes it too easy

young oriole
#

It's more fun to play serf spoilance tbh

snow gulch
bleak pine
#

does anyone know what tier the two handed maces appear in ? 😭

upper wigeon
#

I don't have these problems. I either spin with them and just kick them away or poke, or I run away until they rethink their strategies

snow gulch
#

it used to be so fun to play armored in playtest before the halfswording change

young oriole
#

They'll take like, maybe two normal swings at me the whole fight

upper wigeon
#

maybe its a sign to switch tiers xD

snow gulch
#

the ai doesn't tend to know when to switch

#

feel like it should be more distance based

young oriole
#

They do it in every tier that has long weapons

wicked nimbus
#

Did they patch grappling

young oriole
snow gulch
#

might be possible but id imagine it'd be very difficult

wicked nimbus
#

did they patch grappling

snow gulch
#

maybe just adaptive AI for your specific session? i know a game called undisputed has AI that changes its style mid fight to adapt

snow gulch
wicked nimbus
#

wdym im js asking if it did

snow gulch
#

yeah i don't know what you're talking about specifically though

#

AI never letting go?? you not being able to grab onto them?? what

wicked nimbus
#

like you can grab them and swing them around

young oriole
snow gulch
wicked nimbus
#

o

snow gulch
#

like if you're bumrushing them they'll be more defense oriented if they're losing when going offense, if they're winning more they'll keep doing what they're doing

young oriole
#

Yeah, but if somebody is just wildly swinging,

#

yk

young oriole
#

That makes alot more sense

#

They'd adjust their strategy to you, not mirror your strategies

snow gulch
#

yeah

Hey hey, wo kann ich denn die Sprache ändern im Spiel?

Hey, where can I change the language in the game?

humble hazel
#

It is just comical how enemys can just cut you in half by just gracing you with negative speed while your weapons bounce off their bare skin

urban jackal
#

doing this is so fun

humble hazel
#

How can the spiky stick be less reliable than the candle stick?

#

that tiny spike just onehits everything

urban jackal
#

it isnt the weapon

#

its the holder

humble hazel
#

yeah I know. That thing is just nuts

urban jackal
#

seriously though

deep shale
#

stabbing is just that good against unarmored enemies

urban jackal
#

stupid plancon is so annoying

deep shale
#

i like to use the tiny knife, and even that is fatally dangerous

#

like bro
there is a HOLE in your LUNG

urban jackal
#

i just pierce my sword through the enemy and let it stay there

#

then i switch to secondary

deep shale
humble hazel
#

plancon feels so much less deadly and less "sharp" when you wield it. But enemy's just give you one clap and you go down 😄

i made it to near top in 20 minutes

when you die all progress is losing

you have the abyss

glacial portal

so freaking hard

urban jackal

it isnt

just practice

i spend 4 hours

I made it to the last level before they added the checkpoint for it. Now I just can not back to is

yo wtf is abyss and how do i leave it without losing my character

how bro

urban jackal

you only go when you die

humble hazel
late sorrel
#

ok so i am just starting the game and i keep just getting stuck on the ground unable to get up, and my opponents are kicking me? which i dont know how to do

urban jackal
#

just kill them

glacial portal
#

1 bald man coming with wooden shovel and cracking my head

#

how i

#

how i can be

urban jackal
#

i literally CANNOT say anything else but say get better

#

or you could try real life stuff

gritty shard
glacial portal
#

yes

tidal abyss
#

can you actually kill someone with fists by beating them for long? Im not talking about slamming them on floor

humble hazel
# glacial portal how bro

Use long weapons to keep distance. The pitchfork can carry you multiple tiers because spears are just busted

urban jackal
#

they can pick up helmets??

urban jackal
#

when you start

humble hazel
#

the candleholder is the best tool against spears

urban jackal
#

and you can stab with the other end

humble hazel
#

I know

#

insane

urban jackal
#

stupid dickhead stole mine

#

now hes begging for mercy

humble hazel
#

if they are on the ground and don't surrender right away, make them wish they did

urban jackal
#

i dont give any shits if they surrender

#

theyre there to kill me

#

so im there to do the same

#

theyre only begging because they dont want to die

humble hazel
#

I miss the spilled guts from the old demo

urban jackal
#

since they support modding im sure someone will make a mod for it

humble hazel
#

ofc

urban jackal
#

i really want to see that addon

#

and a brain being added

humble hazel
#

Yeah those Willie's could use some brain

urban jackal
#

willie IS the brain

#

a secondary one would be nice though for the head

frigid furnace
#

is there any way to make hand to hand hard again

tidal abyss
#

man, i walked on some knife on the floor and my character DIED from that

frigid furnace
#

like the combat feels too easy now

#

and i really dislike the

#

way theyr give up

#

if they get grabbed on the ground

urban jackal
#

i love the bone cracking noise

severe hazel
#

ultimate challenge sucks

frigid furnace
#

his leg hurting or nah?

#

think his arm is hurting

#

yea ok this is insanity

urban jackal
#

do you think hes alright

tidal abyss
#

back in the day too

#

you would just push dude on ground

sinful sage
tidal abyss
#

then grab and hold him there

#

and he surrenders

urban jackal
#

🔥

frigid furnace
#

they give up so fast

deep shale
#

if oblivion had halfsword combat then i'd die less

cinder osprey
#

you cant make this up

#

i got my arm injured so hard that i couldnt use it

#

so i give up

#

and then bc i was playing commoner i had low armor on my head and the npc swings at me and kills me after i gave up

anyone get to the soldier boss?

But yeah I wish I could just have the auto rotate left and right of auto lock but not the staring at my enemy's chest, unable to look up

stuck hitting body and legs, lucky to hit shoulder to head area

Oh don't even get me started on stab weapons. Point control is non-existent in this game

if you cant use sharpness

use blunt force

knock willie into walls and corners and pummel them out of the ring

i get stuck on the comoner

if u want turn player damage taken down

#

also use size to ur advantage

#

sprint like no tomorrow

#

make him trip on his movement

gritty shard
#

Yeah right, the bosses still keep up with you at full sprint

solemn holly
#

play as a peasent with a pitchfork

#

works up until veteran tier when they start getting full armour

gritty shard
solemn holly
#

you can, playing as a lower rank character in a higher rank tier gives you extra points if you win

gritty shard
#

Omg this changes everything

#

The dinky little swords that commoners get were awful for me to use

wind flume

No other game makes me repeat the voicelines after the characters say them (or throughout my day) like this game. Except Darkest Dungeon

NGL, the third boss is REALLY hard, yet once you get past it your smooth sailing until about the sixth.

I believe there's a form for submissions.

am i tripping or did they change some of the mechanics in the game in the last day or two ?

i just snapped willies neck with a mace and the crack noise was so good aughhhhhands_flappy_stim WHYYYY

gritty shard
#

Also I would love it if I could stop instantly dying when an axe clips my leg going opposite to the blade. Seriously, no bleeding out or anything, just instant death from the axe glitching into my leg and dealing a million damage or something

solemn holly
#

actually hold on you might be onto something

half sword is very realistic
i just got jit so hard i got motion sickness

I believe devs are aware of the occasional physics explosions. Happens occasionally with spears too.

Physics bugs are part of the pre-alpha things yk

but again im probably tripping

Does anyone know how points work in the abyss mode?

#

It seems kind of inconsistent

#

The only way I can beat the first boss is getting two bucklers or a long candelabra because it has decent weight and a sharp point on the other end. If I don't get either of those, I lose

wind flume
#

Two bucklers my beloved

gritty shard
#

Sometimes I've gotten nothing but pliers and wooden things

#

They should at least give you one sharp item minimum

wind flume
gritty shard
#

Howwww

wind flume
#

You gotta play super defensive and be good at consistently hitting the head

#

Or consistent at hitting his arms. You can break his elbow in like 3 blows

gritty shard
#

Which is exceedingly hard due to autolocking onto the enemy's crotch

wind flume
#

Indeed, I've found that the little shuffle where your character switches stances instead of swinging (talk about a pet peeve) is actually really good for hitting tall guys in the noggin. And it does mroe damage than it would seem to

tired coral
#

i love the wooden things
they're my favourite in spoilance
one hit to the head takes out everything, or at least knocks them to the ground for more hits

gritty shard
#

I think I've found the way to stab with a pitchfork: don't use the stab button. Literally just hold it up and right a bit so it points forwards. Isn't it crazy how well that works? All because he holds it still instead of flopping it around with no effort to control the tip? Crazy how that works

wind flume
#

That is the trick yes!

rocky zenith
#

got him

gritty shard
#

I'm not even pressing alt lol

rocky zenith
#

i had to kick him in the crotch like five times and he jsut gave up

#

what's the trick to getting up?

sage ore
#

is it just me or is the first boss extremely annoying because every weapon is placed so far away from you that by the time you pick it up you have an axe in the back?

i have over 120 hours in the demo (and the playtest prior) and I honestly think the devs have fucked up the physics system so much. So much RNG involved in every encounter now.

gritty shard
#

People keep saying get some space, do a loop but like I do and he's still right there

sage ore
#

interesting the only way ive beat him was bum rushing him with fists and kicks lol. will try doing the loop around

i sometimes hate it

but something confusing is why the blunt part of the "fork" insta kills and causes damage like it's a cutting weapon

You can't fix this, I have tried so hard, and it haunts my nightmares.

It is hysterical that if you can learn to stab, pitchfork is killer through like at least 2 tiers after farmer

Basically you crouch in front of your opponent, hold your sword up as a guard

And then you go in slow mo

#

Wait for them to attack

Is it just me or do the enemies take less damage and you take more damage in the ultimate challenge

It's just you

if you're having problems with the first boss, remember you can just do this

normal sigil
#

Still absolutely certain you fall over easier than the ai but no they don't take less damage

Because I'll slice someone's throat with an axe and they bleed for like 2 seconds and are fine but if I barely get tapped with the backside of the same axe on the foot I fall over and my leg is broken
