#

rebinding keys isn't some advanced level feature

#

'ive played plenty of release demos w that built in

Bro what if the devs added cavalry to this game. Horse physics

#

guys whens full knife and quarter axe

#

oh

#

that's actually hard

#

Tenth Gun sounds like a fucking fire Western game lol

WE NEED TENTH GUN NOW!!!!!!!!!!

A Western game about an orphaned kid 😤

Like a hand or something

#

catering to handicapped people on a generically basic level should have come before advance ue5 blood physics. feels bad that allowing people to be able to actually play the game isnt a generally higher priority as ive seen in plenty of other f2p/early acces/pre alpha/demos

#

i get what yall are saying...but it doesnt change those facts

#

also, this isnt gen chat, was trying to raise interest in a topic relating directly to the game.

#

idc

zinc field
#

its in its demo bro

#

theres gonna be lots of bugs and glitches

glossy halo
#

but it feels like this is getting away from itself lolol

errant igloo
#

just close this topic honestly

#

Nobody is right here lol

#

On one hand his issue IS valid

zinc field
#

bro expects so much from a demo

lunar oxide
#

This chat always gets away from the actual topic. That's nothing new.

errant igloo
#

but on the other hand. It's not a full game yet

lunar oxide
#

usually circles back

#

i have a mentality of a child

lunar oxide

Clearly

zinc field
#

im just naturally stupid

errant igloo
#

yeah you should be treated like one then

#

go sit in timeout

lunar oxide
#

nap time now buddy

zinc field
#

its afternoon

lunar oxide
#

exactly nap time

#

Now shut up and sleep.

#

idk. i played a demo a few months back, i think it was called cyberpunk arena? it was a super hi-fidelity, crazy intense, fast paced, triple a seeming game, made by an underground dev studio. it had built in keybind change functionality.

lunar oxide
#

Then continue

glossy halo
#

this game has attracted a lot of attention and awareness

errant igloo
glossy halo
#

so it would be nice to see

#

as i said, ive seen plenty of demos with that feature built in

astral tiger
#

Why is there such a big difference in difficulty between gauntlet and ultimate challenge?In gauntlet, I destroyed everyone, but in the ultimate challenge, I'm humiliated.

lunar oxide
glossy halo
#

i feel the opposite lolol

errant igloo
#

Key Rebinding WILL be added

#

It just isn't added yet.

zinc field
lunar oxide
glossy halo
#

it was just one example. it wasnt exceptional, it was just a counter point to the idea of "this is a demo, dont expect too much"

#

i do get what ur saying

#

but saying its just a pre release doesnt really ring, when others have it

#

from the rip

errant igloo
glossy halo
#

bruh this is game dev. that metaphor makes literally no sense

#

they could have had a single coder doing it from launch and itd be done by now

#

XD

#

its been going on a year now

humble bloom
#

I don't entirely understand why rebinding isn't a feature either.
I don't know if they've addressed it directly, it might just be an issue of nobody asking about it yet or something.
Maybe it's not as simple as it sounds to implement, I have no idea.

I want it because I really need to delete the slowmo key.

lunar oxide
glossy halo
#

facts, thats another one that screws me, i can just still do actions during it so it isnt as bad

#

lolol

#

the c key fully kills all momentum and resets your willies hands

jolly gorge
#

Hey is anyone else having a hard time to opening the play test right now?

glossy halo
#

and has gotten me instakilled so many times

humble bloom
#

I just hate slowmo in general, I'm so much more used to full speed.

I'm like a house fly, I can't recognize the threat if it's going too slow.

jolly gorge
#

it tells me failed to open:not released. I got excited and went to the store page and it not released.

humble bloom
lunar oxide
#

The slowmo does feel maybe a bit to much. Feels like walking in molasses.

humble bloom
#

There's very many big changes

glossy halo
#

and to be clear btw, at this point, i dont really want them to divert from the intended course of dev., i really like this game and want it to complete at its pace. but it sucks to see most games currently that exist, period, have the ability to rebind, and this one doesnt and hasnt since its initial demo release.

jolly gorge
#

oooh this update looks very good. I like the head tracking that cool

glossy halo
#

and that just feels lame at times when my hands bs is acting up

jolly gorge
#

I only hope they ad some pvp I think it would be super fun. but keep the pve modes and possibly make a score counter for how many rounds you win with a highscore

glossy halo
#

THAT i do get why they dont have

#

that feels like, if anything, a post release "lets see how much money this makes" sort of thing

#

afaik they want to work in a local couch-co-op mode, like split screen...OR in the very least, you could force a local multiplayer instance with mods or something, like the game as it is, sort of allows for that

#

i dont remember

lunar oxide
glossy halo
#

yeah. cause hosting servers would cost an astronomical amount for an indie dev

jolly gorge
#

true

glossy halo
#

esp with how many people already play half sword

jolly gorge
#

Like I would be ok with no matchmaking but instead being able to ad friends maybe in a pve mode of the gaunlet would be super fun and use this discord to find people to join you as well.

#

bro the abyss is kicking my ass

zinc field
#

#

who will win? 10 barons or beggar

wild citrus
#

god it's so laggy in the footage

I meant last

#

not first

pulsar pasture
# random crescent I meant last

Takes all my focus to not get overran by severely armored and over numbered dudes trying to run me down just to stumble on someone’s weapon by accident and get my arm sliced off

random crescent
#

For the axe dude just bait his attack and try to get double candle holders or something

jolly gorge
pulsar pasture
#

And decent weapons

random crescent
#

can’t do nothing without sustaining a critical injury

pulsar pasture
#

And there’s never been a way to defend yourself on the ground against some naked peasant in the first place nevertheless 3 6’8 heavily armored men coming at you with military grade weaponry

#

I’ve had more men push me on the ground and touch me than the average 1970s era male hippie

jolly gorge
#

man I think there is a bug at the begining I can't sprint at the start of the match and if I hit shit I can't move

pulsar pasture

They are high requirements

snow raven

crude flower
#

This is unreal 5 plus it's physics based and the shaders are crazy

snow raven
#

i have directx12 🔥

crude flower
#

I have a 2080 super/R9 3900x and i run it pretty okay

#

What does that even mean

coarse jolt
#

Thrusts in this game are so unrelaible so when you get it right it's so rewarding lol

snow raven
#

but a nvidia gt 1030 😭

#

i need to up my driver bro

crude flower
#

Directx is a higher requirement

coarse jolt
crude flower
#

Try 11

snow raven
#

yes sir

crude flower
#

I do think it's possibly gotten lower requirement wise lol

#

Compared to playtest

#

Not by much, but i can run high DX11

#

Blood and gore is also big

raw finch
#

once u reach ultimate challenge you dont lose your stats right

gloomy crater
#

the first boss is so OP

#

raw finch
#

gloomy crater
#

i cant even get to the knife lmao

#

look at game footage

crude flower
#

Run around the fella

#

You have a whole arena

#

If you're lucky you can find the really big candelabra type deal and stab with that

loud jackal
#

Are they gonna add an audience to the game or are we fighting for zero reason

crude flower
#

The reason is freedom

loud jackal

heady cradle
loud jackal
#

#

Don't move ur mouse

loud jackal
#

hes especially hard in the abyss when you lose your character

zinc field
#

and run into him

#

and hope for the best

heady cradle
#

To hold your spear then just hold click

#

With that you can stab with the spears effectively

#

Guys I’ve just broken a dudes spine leg and amputated his other arm in one stroke of my polearm somehow

#

Btw the dude also glitches and when I struck it launches him out of bounds to the wall and he bounced back as the crumped mess

#

The armor is also broken

zinc field
#

I beated a man and broke all his bones in his body

#

#

how does one grab without letting go

tough moat
#

No, I mean the beta-y version, before they merged the demo and the playtest.

#

but spears do become easier to fight if u have just a bit of armor like in soldier or veteran because they cant just hit u in the legs or torso

#

or a shield but i dont like using shields...

paper falcon
#

Yeah, it also takes alot of patience and timing to find an opening depending on the boss or weapon you're fighting against

#

The Commoner great champion is probably the 2nd hardest boss I fought right next to the Baron, but that's just my opinion ofc

ashen trail
#

is it just me or are the legs glitching out ?

#

like when i try to run my guy just marches

zinc field
#

that's called fancy walking

ashen trail
#

would be useful if my guy is in a ball not a fight to the death

#

this guy just trips when im trying to swing

#

either i got my guy drunk on pints on beer or theres a glitch messing with the running animation

kindred mountain
#

At this point the devs need to add a gorilla which you can fight with it

ashen trail

can it be harambe?

heady cradle
#

ill just grab it later

#

anyways they should buff blunt weapons against armor

#

so many times ive hit willies in the gut with my pole axe and they dont flinch

#

yet when i grab my sword i slit their throat

#

in one go

#

also they shouldnt make stabs so lethal in like 3 seconds

#

i got stabbed by a knife but i cut off their arm first

#

i somehow died first before i could get the win

#

hello how do you change the key binds ?

desert acorn
#

I keep trying

weak dune
#

how do you change the key binds ?

desert acorn
#

but even with no blood, no gore, minimum damage on both sides (thought maybe it was due to not being able to calculate some hits) and two graphic settings lower than my usual, I still get fatal errors in the utimate challenge

#

@weak dune no way to do so in the game, it's very annoying rn

#

The abyss is frikkin rigged

#

I was given a candle stick

#

And the first opponent was a dude with a pitchfork

#

I beat him and I died to a dude behind me with full armor and an spear

#

Then right before I died 3 more showed up with iron clad armor

dry heart
#

Did they figure out a fix yet to why the game fatals on the final boss fight? if you aren't fast enough it fataly crashes

glacial citrus
#

i dunno, it runs pretty smoothly

heady cradle
#

Or when something gets cut off it has a slight chance to fatal error

dry heart
#

as soon as i kill all three, fatal.

heady cradle
#

The game has to render all of the individual pieces I guess

dry heart
#

stops a lot of people from actually beating it

heady cradle
#

And it glitched me into the wall where I instantly died

dry heart

#

Всем хай русские есть?

#

I got jumped by 2 dudes with a spear and once with a great sword

#

All had armor

#

I killed only 2 of them before I died

jagged stream
#

i had a knife

#

and a hat

#

and killed 1 dude

#

then he had a falchion and an axe and armor

#

i took a candle stand and he decapitated me

heady cradle
#

I literally tripped on a sword and died

#

After the insane 1v3 fight with a candlestick I had lol

jagged stream
#

i must saya

#

say

#

heady cradle
#

What I did to kill the armored guys at the other end there’s a spike

I just slammed it in their heads and chest

jagged stream
#

A spike?

heady cradle

#

Hello guys! I downloaded enhancer mod, but I cannot get loadout to work. Like, I spawn a sword, equip it. Then press "Save Loadout" but when I proceed to next fight it doesn't spawn me with the sword.

Thank you, I also wrote in there!

Good luck!

heady cradle
#

I use a sword at that part

jagged stream
#

i can still change it but i thought the hammer-spear looks really good

heady cradle
#

Shields aren’t that useful considering your mostly protected

I like using the big shields to push willie around

heady cradle
#

I just half sword then slash their dead

jagged stream
gilded breach
#

And a warhammer

#

Thats what the hammer is for

heady cradle
#

For my personal experience I had cases where I hammer a dude wouldn’t die and killed me

#

He had armor

#

When there wasn’t armor yet they died in one strike

gilded breach
#

Get em to lose balance with shield and bonk the head with a hammer, quite entertaining

#

But its def not the optimal strategy

Thatll be polearm

#

Mace to the head absolutely knocks em down for me

heady cradle
#

I can easily hit every time with a sword very accurately

#

But with the mace I hit and it doesn’t down them

#

Or a poleaxe

gilded breach
#

Sword are easier to hit with because u have the whole blade

#

With mace u need to hit with the head so its a bit harder to get a clean hit

sleek mica
#

Yes but momentum isn't working right for a lot of them

#

Plancon vs Morningstar is like an apparent example

heady cradle
#

Unlike the Willie’s

#

I’ve had a dude with a pitchfork swing it like a hoe And kill me by hitting my leg and chopping it off somehow

That's why armor is good

#

Especially when you have the shorter weapon

#

Though, with my favorite weapon it's pretty much impossible to have the shorter weapon

#

Pretty sure the billhook is the longest polearm in game

Breastplate + gamebeson is such a nice combo on t5

O THANK YOU

vapid hull

#

sometimes it can get a bit stuck though, but it works great on the longer polearms

#

my fav to spin is the billhook with the larger hook

#

it's absolutely deadly

#

plus since you're pulling back it baits the AI into attacking thinking you're wide open

#

but the momentum can bring it back with a lot of force

It's a very easy move to do and very useful
