yeah
i think rn the ai might have a soft notopple thing going on under the hood because the ai does not really understand that its falling or on the ground i dont think
still feels like trying to walk on wet tile
the ai cant really understand that its at risk of falling down
I live here
*CRAWLS
i think its why the ai sometimes refuses to surrender but crawls away from you
so funny
its just trying to backstep and regain stamina
I love that this has single player! I was intrigued by For Honor and similar games, but I don't care much about multiplayer
just squirms out of bonds
Just play the For Honor campaign bro 
beat that shiz on realistic
forhonor sucks
I exploited the fuck out of the AI in ultimate challenge tbh as they trip and fall over all the armor and shields on the ground
*light parrys u
it sucks cuz i was good with bastard swords in mordhau
I play mordhau just to run around and have fun once in a while, but playing it like i used too just isnt the same
club
Of course, I imagined if we got a dark souls game with this combat! haha
Basically the abyss
half sword with bows would be cool like a archers only
i was more thinking about mount and blade
exanima:
if the original mount and blade had a system of combat similar it wouldve been a masterpiece of technical engineering for gaming
MB Warband will forever have a place in my heart.
To this day no game comes close to the freedom and RPG elements it could provide, and the free endless mods.
A buddy of mine loves Mount & Blade!
ok lets abbrieviate that
even if halfsword is a failure i hope people can cannibalize the concepts for other projects
and maybe the melee genre wont die
half sword has already begun
bro
MB Warband is an absolutely goated classic. Sea raiders haunt my dreams.
ive crashed 8 times now on the baron tier
turn off blood
this is actually pissing me off so bad
me
that shouldnt be an issue
whats the point of playing the game without blood
Turn off blood and gore is the consensus
unreal engine 5 issue
wrong guy
thats just annoying
Playing for the swordplay
To not crash on the ultimate challenge haha
its a problem with the liquid simulation
they should fix it bruh
sucks that i gotta turn off one of the best parts of the game
theyve been trying for weeks
just to beat the game
i hate unreal engine

Kinstrife is a non-linear singleplayer medieval RPG with physically simulated combat – become a knight errant in a quest for greatness in tumultuous 13th-century Germany!
M...
Shoulda made HS on Source stg
unreal engine is good its just not meant for a lot of whats being done with it
armor mechanics also need a touch up they rub and it makes me lag in the skirmishes
Unreal Engine so no blood makes sense, right? 😛
I feel like they should just use the old fashion blood.gif way
they want hyperviolence graphics for some reason idk
its a vision thing
it is cool what theyve done with it but i could take it or leave it
Half Sword ported to X-Ray engine when
i CANNOT get past commoner
its a simulation
armor entities need a little touch i hate getting stuck in walls at the end happend twice
realistic one
i either get my get chopped off or my arm chopped off when i try to block
Representing the brutality of getting absolutely fucked up bad by a sword
Because shit is yuckers
halfsword ported to rpgmaker when
true tho, I know some engineers and they do have an obsession over technological challenge like this
@tough yew perfect timing the creator himself
half sword ported to godot engine when
run directly in and try to push him over with shift
or source
GldSrc Half Sword
yeah lol
needs to be remade in early access
the new german cuirass look cool, itll be nice to finally have waist protection that isnt just chainmail or thighflaps
LOL there was a guy here during playtest ranting that he could make a game like halfsword but better on godot
or a halberd 👁️
lmao
did he ever make it?
I doubt it he never came back after he got roasted
yeah its called chivalry 2
lmfao
kept saying godot is more than capable of making games like UE5
cmon that game is alright
cmon u know thats funny
the swordplay feels like fighting in a dream
tf is that pfp
lmao
its basically mordhau with shiddier fighting
I enjoy chiv 2 for the fact it doesnt take itself seriously, but tbh they should have made that a selling point because the original chiv felt more grounded.
ive only played chiv 1
chiv 2 is made to make you giggle
I miss the source engine days bro
i only played to to make people quit by killing them with the worst weapons
so much endless fun on steam for free
it was on source?
Yep half life 2 source
i guess thats why i understood the movement so easily
all hail the source engine
Kinstrife looks interesting! Thanks for sharing, @proven verge
Felt right at home since I played zombie panic source and garrysmod all day back then
couldnt you strafejump for awhile in chiv1
it was on unreal tho
yall ever played the source game, pirates vikings and knights 2?
ue3
heavily
dont you see the massive ue3 logo when you boot up chiv1?
i remember 1v2 2 of the developers in a public server
chivalry 1 is ue3, age of chivalry is source
Unrealistic, halberds were clean and nonlethal weapons 
Guys will there be an online mode
Oooooh thats my b
just pillage my harvest bro
not for a while if u mean pvp
???
Multiplayer might be added after the game's full release.
Sad
theres no optimization
Its planned for later but not a priority #faq
the game isnt even in alpha
No, is it good?
K ty
Nice
yes but is good game'
its free
I recently bought chiv2
Its free and still has a very niche playerbase
lol
I haven't played games in a long time, but I come back and got chiv 2 and half sword looked awesome so I got that too
are you on dx12
yes
New spike scary spire mode now
you dont bleed out in the abyss
ive survived losing a leg
fr?
Does Willie attack in patterns? I feel like I'm noticing something like that, but maybe I've just got crazy from killing so many Willies
pretty sure u can change it in settings
nvidia moment
You on dx12?
probably cpu limited then
the highest setting is unlimited
@heavy nacelle Do you have updated gpu drivers?
ai have different combat personalities kinda
Pattern recognition is a high sign of intelligence
Make it dx11
theyll do combos but its not that complex
I noticed that too. Some are more aggressive
do dx11, never 12
will i ever stop screaming and be able to use my weapons with a missing hand
Excuse me, for trying to help!
dx12 works perfectly fine for me
idk man
Have you tried turning it on and off again?
Pretty much. Swings left to right with swords, occasional overhead with axes, resets. Tries again.
Polearms stab stab stab stab.
Combos, yeah that makes sense. I've been trying to parry with a longsword and getting pretty good at it. But I'm worried it's mostly because I'm learning the combos lol
learn to clinch with the ai
it has a 60fps cap tho
i tripped over and got decapitated
if you can survive a fully armpured clinch you can survive pretty much anything in this version of the game i think
armoured
I once died by tripping on a coffin in Abyss, such a hilarious moment! 😄
Trying to pick up a weapon
hello campbell 
I meant Elden Ring
New scary spikey spire mode WHEN
@gilded frigate Early access I think?
what cpu do you have
Likely..
i sure love getting sliced in half w a butter knife in this game
the new one has the exact same content as the old one and more
its a ue5 game in prealpha, youre gonna have terrible fps and performance
Troll rage bart Simpson sandwich
this is a playtest, you're meant to test the game
get a better pc
so what's your cpu
a better pc does nothing to fix the fps, the games just like that rn
I'm running this game from a 5 yrs old PC setup
i get 60fps on medium and im on a 1650 wth a laptop xpu
cpu
its just fucky
sometimes i can get 45fps on high
I play at 1080p and get 60 fps.
that doesnt mean anything to me im afraid
lol I have 2700x+3060
nvidia sucks
a 3060 is more than enough to run this game, whats your cpu though
maybe someday
should all be good enough, try verifying game files if you havent already idk
playtest wasnt trying to be an actual game like the new demo is
Old demo didnt host assets from the playtest and the abyss or have a skeleton and bone break system along with the updated physics
SWITCH FROM DX12 TO DX11 we told you twice
performance really hasnt changed at all for me
if anything it got better
check cfg files
wait does this game have cfg editing
check your cfg settings for an fps cap
set it to nil if you can find one
or do a full wipe of the game
and dont touch the fps cap again
or just switch to dx11
which is the best bet
Later guys, take care!
My PC is falling off the bone. 🍗🍗
Perhaps you bought a 3060 from wish
Low damage to npcs has shit like this happening
Anyway how do I get auto parry like guys argued about
just hold your weapon in front of you
High, 1080p
high is max
My supporting leg snapped when i kicked
Draw attacks in Tier 4 is a bit tougher than Tier 3 lol
its just for picture taking dont use it during gameplay. Epic looks near identical but better FPS
Would you say this is doing too much
this is effing smooth

Thank you!
whats the best weapon for soldier tier
short longswords
if you have a modicum of skill
or just bearded axe
falchions are also good and require zero skill
but theyre unusable with a shield in my experience
is it jus me or at that tier is leg meta a thing
i dont aim for legs much anymore bc it feels cheap
its so easy to break legs now if not just cut them off
u mean the instant kill function
wasnt allways instant kill
being reworked for the early access release
ive been stabbed and killed by a mf with organs falling out
oh ok
i love how mfs will fall over the rails and give up
He tried to kick me and ended up falling into my sword lmao
thats the rules im ps
Best spear stab ever?
ok when the fug could they snatch your weapon from both my hands

im just waiting for us to be able to do the same
Oh so youve never fought jason bourne yet?
what the hell
no like i literally got it stolen and he used it against me
in spoilence
managed to cleave a guy's face in half, kind of gross but pretty cool
Oh yeah some funny shit happens if you both try to pick up the same weapon, you both end up holding it
best friends
i dont think its really something youre technically supposed to be able to do yet
hahaha his whole helmet too
I had the playtest in steam but I can't find it anymore? anyone know how can I get it back pleasE?
Hes dead, and youre laughing.
Hes missing half of his head, and youre laughing.
ive only ever gotten a single eye shot, wasnt even sure you could cut them at first
hi guys
Weapon: Fuck this shit I'm out
how the fixed fatal error
lmao
Watch The best left hook and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
very clean
mid chop
how the fixed fatal error please help me
gnarly half chop
on the ult challenge?
turn blood and gore off completely
^^^^
This one was gnarly, knee on the sword to add more force and everything
what on earth even causes this
something seems different about willie, new haircut?
The volgue of course
blade to the face
yeah that tracks
definitely one of my favourite weapons
The game never opens and I get a fatal error message every time. Is there a way to fix it?

Clean reinstall along with deleting game appdata files
best early game gotta be that long axe
just swing really hard
sometimes it works out
sometimes🥀
One of my all time favorite clips I got out of the playtest @loud jackal
the wood chopping axe really is op for some reason though
the force he went flying at is crazy
actually all axes do be like that. Light bonk and limbs blowing off
it's kind of stupid, but enjoyable at least XD
worst weapon in the game gotta be the tiny shiv
hii
No no no, the tiny shiv is good
worst weapon is the shears
Any body else ever fought the hidden boss in abyss?
shears are alr tf you mean
because stabs lower your stamina a shitton
Well do the knife fight in first person and you'll see it's worth. You'll be eye to eye with willie and slice his face off
This?
That's not so bad
you can stab someone in the arm with the bottom of a candlestick and it will instantly kill them
that thing is alr
thats not a set of shears
stabs are just built diff
Two hand that biii and start swinging
I too enjoy mugging techniques of martial arts
dude when can i level up
Thanks man I am getting a video memory error is there a solution for this
this is gettin annoying i wanna send clips!!
Whats your ram?
when i got stabbed through my hand with a pencil as a kid i actually died and they had to bring me back to life on the operating table, true stiry
8gb ddr4
being stabbed is so dangerous any stabbing can kill u
lil billhook
so realism
just keep posting it takes a day or two and theres a timer
I die more to walking into the weapons weapon then anything. The stabbing is a real danger
just dont walk into their weapon
i once stepped on a thumbtack and my entire body instantaneously exploded
alr the clip i wanted to send is in game footage
they had to scoop me and glue me back together
jon snow had it right when he said to stab them with the pointy end and dont let them stab you
its really that easy
i wish i recorded it but i used the point of a candle stick and one tapped a dude in the eye w it
?
.
you need atleast 120mb of ddr2 ram
Hmm and what about your processor
"Im sorry brother, you fought well"
intel i5-11400H
my steam record playback isnt working but someone just kicked another dude into another guys sword and died
fought the scythe boss and cut him in half down the middle and he got back up 🥀
hpw dp i stea, recprd [;aynacl
this happens and its hilarious
huh
how do i steam record
it says that runs at 2.2 ghz without boost so is it boosting?
i think it has something to do with the way damage is modelled
its a setting on steam
oh ok
i dont remember how to EXACTLY get to it but all i know is that its in settings
2.2ghz is rough
WILLIE WITH AN ENZIGURI
SWEET CHIN MUSIC
how fixed ?
Well first start up task manager and see how much cpu usage is going on during halfsword running
Hello guys how to get play test?
playtest is merged with the demo, downlaod the demo
What should I do next?
And how to run it in the demo version?
I DEFEATED BARON FINALLY
Quick question: why is it that when my character dies in gauntlet mode, sometimes I get a splash screen that says "You Died" with a button to go back to the menu, and sometimes it sends me to the abyss?
wait, i just realized, does caps lock make you slow walk??????
any tip to how to kill him? just started playing again and somehow managed to get to him, but died in the abyss after my second fight.
It is using around 90mb of space in task manager.
Stab face
Mine takes 388 so wtf
Or armpit
The game remains black before the loading screen and never opens.
i hit him with my famed special attack
Did you delete appdata files and clean reinstall
a mf with a missing right arm kicked me, knockedm me out, and won
if i saw that thing in my living room, id stomp it until it was a small brpwn stain
Any fps tips in bohurt? My performance is dog with anything other than 2-3 chars
All settings low, no blood and gore if that bad
My little brother played this damn game for over 80 hours and now he's almost crying because the game won't open. I'm his brother, if you could help me that would be great.
lol, visual instruction is always clearer (also the rage in those swing while he's covered in his won blood speaks for itself)
yes i did
they have explosives
own*
he hit my arm and my camera went crazy XD
@tender quest @idle crane do yall have any tips for bro. That usually works
So how to activate playtest&
you dont
There is no playtest anymore, just download the demo
tongs
yeah
So how do you modify your character and weapons?
Game saves progress in steam cloud? Cuz i need to reinstall and i dont want to do baron grind
not guarenteed to work but in launch options type -dx11. lemme know if it works. if not we can try something else
You can randomize your loadout with the randomize button. Theres no character creation besides making him taller or shorter with the randomize body button in gauntlet.
thats gonna be in early access
anybody know how this cut his throat?
i thought it mightve just clipped through the bevor or something but i dont know if i even hit his neck
Weapon clipping happens a lot especially when coliding with armor/shields/other weapons
is slicing helmets in half a glitch or mechanic
maybe it got a really light stab?? idk
Thank you very much my friend, my little brother went crazy with joy at home, thank you❤️
Im guessing it worked?
ngl i didnt know you can dislocate willies leg if you keep kicking it a bunch of times
yes
its a glitch. if a blade hits flesh first then armour just stops working
yo is there a way to fix the fatal error bug when your in the final challenge fight
the cuts on the helmet look like it was modeled
turn off blood
k thanks
the helmet is technicslly part of the body
when its equipped
so it acts like a piece of flesh when cut due to the glitch
you can turn off blood and gore but it doesnt always work but it mostly does
much appreciated gng
spike pit looks cool
what is Willies last name?
Where's the fullsword chat??
nice
does ovrdths still work
if i release a punch mid swing does it have more momentum i heard that was a thing
at the right time i think it does
i think im doing it right cause im taking out other beggars in like 1 right hook to the face
whatever happened to people spin kicking
i think they changed kicking a bit
you can probably still do it
since i cant post clips in chat i posted a funny one in #game-footage-🎮🎥
im lowkey so ass i havent gotten past the 4th rank in gauntlet mode
if you do a quick punch and not follow through on the head while running it does inane damages
why is there a bunch of spikes under the map
look at the wip channel
i think its related to the upcoming mode
i cant read french though so no clue what it says
it says: one step foward, one step back, but one step to the side and everything is lost
makes sense
sounds like a cool mode
im gonna throw away my weapons to grab the enemy and throw them in the pit
they have gold in their hands
the base mecanics of the game are amazing
they just need good modes and content
im gonna put a photo in #photography📷 of the spikes i dont think those are the same kind
shi nvm it will get deleted
damn he packing
it looks like the end of a movie when the protagonist gets stabbed or shot and stands up for a couple seconds
it ong does , defo a bug but i think it adds depth
earlier somebody said something about a quick punch
what does that mean guys
how do i do that
I assume it’s what’s actually damaging you when you hit the fence rather than the fence damaging you
he took head damage which stunned him before he collapsed
in the playtest sometimes when i cut an enemies head
they would just get paralyzed
and sit there without losing until i hit them more
but this makes sense
its so funny when an enemy hits the fence and they get more hurt than they possibly should
JESUS, i survived way too much
ena cosplay
bahhlright
chat can soeone tell e how to fix this fatal crashing
nothing is working
bro i stg this game gave me arthritis
he was just taking a closer look at the ground
the crashing does make me tweak out because it happens everytime I start winning 💔
yea, its like when you are finaly at an advantage againced the overpowered willies, the game says you cant do that :(
its when the wille takes too much dmg
willie thought it was a good idea to pick up MY greatsword
Is there a way to join the playtest? Is it still open?
no 😦
but the demo is still available 😄
Half Sword is an immersive, physics-based medieval combat simulator that offers players a unique experience of becoming a commoner-turned-knight, fighting brutal tournaments in 15th-century Europe. With innovative gameplay mechanics, you can wield your weapon with precision using your mouse, feeling the intensity of each clash as you ascend t…
2025
made it to veteran finally before getting decapitated
how do you throw them?? when i spin they just... lay on the ground still?
man i was thinking and like different body physiques and amount of fat would be interesting
even if they are in the air, they fall after about a quarter of a second
using zero gravity
mod?
i want to be fully armored, 5'3, 300 lbs, and run(or hobble) into someone at full speed
not that it would be effecient, but it would be funny :3
Halfsword enhancer mod
and yet a willie with full armor, can still run at you with full speed without relative stamina loss lol
ah, i aint got mods, i dont feel like going through the hassle of maintaining them
its literally as easy as opening an exe file and boom you got the menu, but its up to you
ima beat the og vers, then do mods maybe
owwww
ankle
ankle?
that looks like the textures for the shoe/foot
and the shape
yea technicaly heel
well no actualy
the akeeles
or however you spell that
theres a hole in my heel
since its the tendon beneath your calf
CAN I GET RID OF SHIELDS 😫 i just wanna swingy da sword
playing double lamps in the abyss is so fun, its like steel boxing gloves
I’ll fix it for you. Lachiles
thanks dad<33
Abyss mode is kicking my ass. I can make it to Baron, but then I get curb stomped by the gang.
Watch butter willie and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
are willies made of butter
Don’t worry about it, the barons gold armor is tacky
i usually get a fatal error mid way through
Who wears gold armor
I've beaten the Baron in gauntlet mode
nah its drippy
But abyss mode is brutal
I fear not the Willie that’s killed one million Willies. I fear the Willie that’s been killed by one million Willies.
Yeah, if you get a limp beforehand or a bad chest wound the run is basically over loll
i couldnt find a helmet one run, had a limp and tripped on a candlestick, my head hitting the ground killed me instantly. it made me angry but also made me cackle
"all of them are called willies? is that a species?" - one of my friends
why can we not just pick what weapons we want
its annoying as fuck to have to spam randomize gear to get what i want
theres no bleedout in this game? ive hacked this guy to shreds but hes still running around
idk how I survived that, though I didnt last long due to my leg
16 seconds · Clipped by m00 · Original video "Sweating HalfSword (K/D Counter)" by m00
oh no more ultimate challenge for me, even with lowered settings and no gore I still keep crashing
what other ways r there to use a longsword otehr than to jus half sword and mouse wave to victory i cant find guides online
i play veteran (7) tier
thats so sad
you also got stabs
hold alt in either position
and then try to click and swing
in normal grip that's regular thrusts
in half swording it's thrusts that can work well against heads or to finish off enemies on the ground
stabs r risky tho bc youd be so exposed
depends
i jus half s word and aim for the nape
someone post more physics going insane
yeah, try to half sword, then hold alt and move side to side
thats even more risky
the character snaps a lot
like one time in abyss i got sent flying miles out of the map
ok ill try stabs
just hold down alt then move your mouse up and down
its so easy
it always lands to the left or right
stabs work less the more armor your enemy has
depending on where your mouse is
you can aim stabs by moving left or right when pulled back
i prefer your starting position on the right
i jus beat another fight by half swording to victory but he had a spear so
against enemies with exposed arms and necks, when they have shields I also like the sidestep to the left as they approach then slice at them from the side method
i play on the teir where ppl use a lot of breastplates that will jus stop my stabs
yeah that depends on enemy weaponry
there is only one armor that this works against
ye for a spear jus close the distance and its jus sad how easy it is to beat someone
maybe its the ai
for spears getting in close after dealing with the initial hit is good
but against longswords you're just asking for death
like it works, but it can be just as dangerous for you
Any advice how to stop playing for 4 hours?
yea how do i coutner longswords with my own longsword
no kidding
if they have armor gaps, use footwork, play it safe, stay out of range when they hit, hit when they take risks
and what if they dont I jus fought a longsword guy with those big chest holes and still lost bc he pushed me so hard
otherwise, try to knock them down, you can play it safe and hit the head a few times to daze them before throwing them to the floor
yeah that's the issue, don't go brawling with enemies that have their full capacity
hitting neck gaps seems to be impossiible after this update...
actaully at teir 6 what is the best weapon is it the longsword
they can knock you down just as easily as you can get them
I tend to prefer polearms
billhooks and voulges
you get much better range, and even against armored enemies, if you get a polearm hit to the helmet you go down
doesn't matter if the blade cuts or not, you just go down from the blunt force
falling down mechanic kinda ruins the game rn
you jus gotta be very careful not to let them push u right
jus get up?
how would they push you if you stay at range?
lmao
the goal is to not just touch their nipples with yours
yea thats obviously the solution but that doesnt leave much room for error
ill jus stick to my longsword for now and maybe the sword and shield
what do you mean not much room for error?
if you have the longer weapon you have all the room
like they have to take two more steps to even attempt to hit you
how would u win a longsword on longsword fight at tier 3 i jus beat mine by being super agressive and jus hitting him before he hit me
that's easy as it gets to avoid
you can be aggro, or you can play it safe
if you have the same weapons then yeah it's all about technique
so footwork and parries
and aiming for weaker spots
neck, arm, legs, chest
anything exposed
if you can hit their dominant hand, it's over for them
like when u have no armor ig yea my solution is to be so agressive theyre surprised
force an opening
actually starting to really like polearms
You caaaaan technically swordfight em but it's simpler to do what you do normally and get the drop on them
it's easy to not just predict but control the timing of the fight
i have never seen that long of a sword before
feels so cool when you hit a blow that doesnt completely drop them but puts them on their knees, and you land a finishing blow
higher rank sword, youll get it at higher ranks, it's the same type as the one from the commoner boss
yep
no that one is unusually long lol
im doing the free thing and i dont remember seeing it is it like a baron thing
kicking the foot out is peak asf
polearms physics going bonkers on that one
got a long way to go for me lol
lmao that was funny
u got it man
damn these commoner fights
i jus win by being overly agressive
yeah how do you feel being overpowered
MY FUCKING GAME CRASHED DURING THE FINAL LEVEL
aww so sad
WHY IS HE BOOTY CHEEK NAKED 😭
If my progress is gone I will actually crash out
its gone
gotta turn off gore and blood i think
spawned items
it should hopefully be saved since you dont reset on ultimate
i lost this
You're right thank fuck
glad to hear
Sucks that I have to turn off the gore tho
yeah its a pain but its wtv
I was planning to cheese the knights with the halfsword hug
which one of the swords is the longsword
The long one probs
guess its just poor playtesting 🤷 feel like thats how it goes with most of these updates atp
any one that can be two handed
swords are all long
i guess you could call the knight tier ones greatswords
but then they have longswords as sidearms for stuff like polearms
i fucking hate the abyss
its so frustrating to get knocked down by literally nothing and instantly die
thats the biggest problem of the game rn
ai is programmed to run into you, you fall down to any slight push and falling down is a guaranteed death sentence
you cant counter the ai's bull charging with stabs because stabs are insanely inaccurate
indeed
its called chance
yeah thats why i switched back to playtest, much more stable characters there
and not being hit as hard
no.
you see this?
im willing to crawl my way back up to it
this was me when i had that score
how do you even do that
how do i do a quick punch i hear people say that often
is there any way to make hats and helmets less obtrusive in first person?
no
damn
their are helmets, they cover your eyes lol
i prefer playing in first person, but its super annoying to do once you get to higher armor levels
ik, but increase visibility at least a little bit
you can parry??
smack their weapon with your weapon
yeah
guys
i just aim for their body and flail my weapon
bruh
usually the head
nuh uh, if they cover your eyes, they protect you, if they dont then you have a higher chance of damage
i never have a strategy
which is probably why i never get past the 4th status in gauntlet mode
BRO
everyones game crashes 1 time
im playing at max fps and my game crash
ultimate would not be half as aids if there was abyss' heal on kill function
bugs and glitches
buckler enjoyers wya
just me or has the game suddenly gotten really buggy?
so its gonna require alot of grinding if i want to get back up to it
suddenly lol?
but to answer honestly no seems samesy
yeah been playing well without anybugs but suddenly im only experiencing bugs
my stabs still rotate 1 of every four enemies into a drill that would pierce the heavens, so... yea. Still a tech demo lol
verify the demo files, give the ol' pc a reset, don't think there's been any updates to the demo too recently
me when bro
yeah thanks i'll try
this goes hard
how do i do a quick punch ive hearad people say theyre super powerful
Not sure what you're talking abt
hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
what are willies
Would really like to see a big post with what the devs have heard as far as feedback, and what they're thinking of adressing most :/
And for it to be the falling over
I keep saying it, yes! BUT!
I'M GOING INSANE
me when bro has an axe
Oh and inconsistent stab detection, but that one bugs me less somehow
think this belongs in feedback and bug reporting pal
dont think so buddy
think so buddy
Hey I ain't your buddy, chum
watch out mate
Hey now I ain't no mate of yours homeslice
why can they dash in slow mode?
when i press f
THEY ARE SUPOSED TO BE SLOW
yet they can just, JUMP forward with imence force
and i cant do anything about it because they dont care about strength, (its not skill as they can just ignore blunt damage, its a known thing)
i think im learning how to stab
short sword+ shield is epic combo but idk what the swords called
its like the pointy thin one
this, coupled with incidental, light taps from polearm shafts just straight up concussing willie into the ground is a real fun killer
hold alt and move your mouse forward
a stab for a stab
hello I'm new to the halfsword discord is there a specific way to receive the content creator role?
there's always a knife on the ground in his arena, right in the center, dodge a hit and stab him in the belly to 1 shot
if there's a long candle holder, use the back end (not the one with the curls) it'll one shot him
have fun with the commoner boss lol, got no advice for you there other than get lucky
Ye im aiming them now
If i have a sword and shield how doni fight someone wearing a breastplate
Currently my solution os to either try and sneak a slice at their neck ehich may have mail on it or stab them in rhe stomach
Ok, Hollywood. relax with the spins 😭
I can use swords too!
exactly
skill issue!
If you're winning 24/7 you won't crash whenever you START winning
baaahlright

that doesnt ake sense
the gae crashes when you reach a certain point
To START winning you have to be losing first
if you never lose to begin-with then you don't crash when you START winning
you just crash when you're already winning
problem solved
ez pz
LMFAO
Why does it? 😭

reove the pitchfork
Who let the 8 year old blox fruit players play half sword

does this mean we get to fight over a pit?
tf is blox fruit 😭
sounds like a mobile game
roblox game which basically is a mobile game
A roblox grinding game
got it
Very ass
well I sure hope there'll be no grindy elements in Half Sword
Half Sword is that chill game I get on and play whenever I'm angry at the world and what my life has come to
wouldn't wanna have to play it for 113 hours to unlock my first dagger
lmfao
I love when I die in half sword ngl because it just makes me play for longer

Dying in Half Sword is just a chance to try out another weapon ngl
When I die while using a sword that's my cue to go use Pollaxe
How do you hit with the flat 3 times in a row 😭
that's either insane skill or luck
Bro is luvryann the biggest complainer of all time
nvm the 3rd time didn't hit with the flat it hit with the edge but it hit the helmet
but the 1st 2 times hit with the flat
Why did willie start flying
my sword is enchanted with pixie dust
HSE Low Grav
AKA pixie dust
What is HSE
the axe is a lot stonger then I thought it would be
yeah been playing for over 1000 hours just to increase my luck stat
Grotesque gore mode makes it weird
Sometimes it's dull sometimes it cuts people in half by barely touching them
I have it on the middle setting
insane skill then
is that Grotesque?
Does it still cut people in half?
No
Half Sword Enhancer
it's cuts their limbs a lot
just dont give me any weapon other than greatsword ;_;
I disagree
knowing what you know it'd take you like 3 days at most to get good at pollaxe
I'm not even half as good as you with longswords and it didn't take me long to start using the pollaxe at a relatively intermediate level
ok wow the game looks so much better on high quality
Yeahh...
Unfortunately I'm a potato-user
I only relized I had it only once I saw that video
so I'm generally on low but the game still looks alright
Have you ever seen cinematic
the devs haven't optimized the game yet so we have to go lower quality than we were pre-gore
let me set it to that
all the organs and stuff are always rendered below the skin i think
Dont do it if your pc cant handle it
Becsuse then even the menu will lag
Even then the game is physics-driven so no matter how much they optimize it I think a good number of us will not be running it all too well on high graphics
yeah it's lagging better set it to epic
I'd be happy to be proven wrong tho
yeah, evident with more willies spawning, but for some reason the blood from willie is causing more lag than the presence of willie himself
Really hope rapiers get added on full release
At the current state it's surprisinly optimized, I can run it at 60 fps, medium gore setting at single combat high quality graphics with a gtx 1650 and a i5 9400f, 8gb ram ddr4 2666mhz
At 1080p*
psure willie blood is either particles or actual fluid simulation
which is insanely heavy
fluid simulation used to fuck my PC when I tried doing 3D work 💀
Particles because simulation would kill your pc
it's 3d particles, before we had 2d particles which honestly looked better
We have similar PCs but my CPU is 10x worse which is probably what's making it run so much worse for me
I got an i7-4770
blood was terrible at the launch of gore because the particles were insanely high poly count xbox looking spheres
You'd also need to replace your motherboard

Why were they high poly count anyway
yeah
might as well get a new PC at that point
placeholder that the dev forgot to replace for release
I wonder how the dynamic slicing the devs showed on twitter would perform
hopefully EA will be much better optimized but the devs have stated they will rather work on adding new content and optimizing will be last
don't we already have dynamic cutting?
I've never got this tho
Cut in half but still not completely separated
Wait I think we already have it
I did
Idk if it was all dangly mangly like it was in the WIP post
because my graphics are shit so it wasn't really all that visible
but there was defo a cut and he wasn't fully separated
Fatality
fatality or brutality?
its both
i forgot to mention that your new pfp is cool
its my youtube logo, but it was made by someone else- thanks though!
im gona subscib
highly appreciate if you do 🫡
sowd
how do u get the greatsword
whats ur utub chanel nam
hey is there anyway I can only play brave stand?
NO
its not possible
man it would be great
also any tips using baron? hes super fun but his axe weapon feels super heavy and slow
You can use a previous tiers equipment on higher tiers (and get bonus rank points)
why is 3rd grete champ so hard 😠
dude the npc should not be able to kill you when you are actively giving up
its so annoying
i dont want to go to the fucking abyss
zesty ass willie bro
He's so ✨ Elegant ✨
real
"OH EM GEE WHY DID YOU MAKE ME KILL YOU LIKE OH MY GOSH NOW I HAVE TO WASH MY SHOES AND CLEAN MY SWORD UGH 💅✨"
AGHAHAHA
blud got cooked
Guys, out of curiosity, at what point did we get the ability to just break Willy's kneecaps?
It's just... facing the wrong way.
Matter of fact, it bends the wrong way too!
key rebinding when?
accessibility matters. people who are physically disabled like me should be able to rebind the fucking open camera menu from c to some other button
cause my michael j foxx ass hands keep accidentally pressing c, which opens the camera, and deads out your player characters movement/actions/thing you were about to do
and its killed me so many times
Dude calm down. It’ll come when it’s done
Idk dude, rebindable keys would be nice, but disability reasons seem disingenuous. I mean at the end of the day this is a demo, a very impressive demo but a demo nonetheless.
The game isn’t even out yet
