gib mods
does anyone have any advice on what to do with polearms?
getting used to bigger range is a must, overheads feel pretty random so far though
Lets Gooooooo!!
There's so much variation in ways to play this. There's the "im gonna nick'em in the neck with a dainty weapon" and then there's this
Like how to use them?
yeah, maybe there are techniques I don't really get
I found out that switching from LMB hold to an RMB hold in the middle of a swing creates momentum
love this shit
it also allows for close range cuts
ye
if i had a dollar for every time i impaled a guy sideways
so that's what I end up using most of the time, but the range is pretty small when you do this
what sens do yall use?
default
i tried super high for a bit
was okay
ive seen super low + high dpi on your mouse is praised a lot
but my mouse doesn't have adjustable dpi
turns out it does i was wondering what that button does
Back at you agian with a cursed screenshot.
yeah high dpi and low sensitivity is best
she half on my sword till I willie
Going for the single leg
Guys, hear me out... Hold Willie in reverse grip
actually what if you use Willie's heads as a weapon
plancon parry
this needs to be possible
I decided that I didn't need the sword.
yeah, polearms are doing good so far
What is the difference between the sensitivity in a game and the dpi of your mouse? I always assumed they did the same thing
so like if you have a uhhh
uhhhh
how do i explain this
dpi is how many pixels your mouse on the screen moves per inch of movement on the mousepad IRL.
i thought dpi is like
I think?
the amount of times the laser hits
Maybe.
so its like a counter right
I think it works both ways but yours is more scientific.
like lets say for explanations sake its just counting every position; and your sensitivity is just like
x position plus 1
im currently in an abyss fight where i lost my left arm at the elbow and im fighting for life wailing my head off with nothing but my legs
current score is 900
so like low dpi and high sensitivity means you can move shit rlly fast but you basically are going to smaller sections
less control
Cause 800dpi on a 4k screen will be super slow compared to 800dpi on a 1080p screen.
so like, the sensitivity decreases the range of movement in a way but by increasing the dpi it makes the speed in that range faster? or am i misunderstanding
and 900 is how the score will stay unfortunately
dpi always makes it faster but you'll always have a way to lower that
yeah basically
dpi is like raw pointer speed
sensitivity in games or in your system settings are a way to artificially adjust it ig
How do you get the king
anal
No like where do i go to do it
his ass
I know but where in game do i go
i just told you
downgrade a rank and use the pitchfork
What
Epic
when progressing, you can use the farmer rank and use the pitchfork to beat the sword bosses
that one works too
Alr but everytime i get soooo close to beating third boss he just cuts off my arms since i have no armor what do i do about that?
yall need to add a mode where its like japanese and you got katanas and shit and robe/samurai armor physics n shit
yeah just try and get a lucky strike and keep your distance
I ran into fatal error like 400 times today </3 i cant do this no more
pitchfork works wonders, I also defeated this fucker with a sword a couple of times
you gotta try and get inside his guard
hello
hoho
My biggest issue right now is using polearms still, the whole problem I have is its so difficult to keep distance
The AI just push me, I can’t keep em at the end of my stick
Sometimes I do, but then my swings either miss or they get too close in my swing
Poor AI, he doesn't understand the power of the double smack
That's a long sword you got there
add tar that you can dump on willie and set alight
dolt
uhhh Spoilance is usually 4 people right?
dont be afraid to swing to make them back off
quarter staff of a polearm still quite poweful
what's going on here
also I hate to be a baby but shouldn't the beggar boss have to use the spoiilance crap too
there ARE MODS!!!
I just had my damn leg taken off by a dropped axe
I mean I get it, I've had that thought 200 times while playing, about japanese weapons and styles
but another part of my brain knows that bugging the devs about it is something others have likely done, and will be irritating
pollaaaxeee axey thingy
The unfocused part of the red guy is kinda eh
Should make it a bit more blurry
or you could zoom out a little bit
yeah I'm totally new to messing with focus
and keeping camera position, field of view, focus and sensor width straight is hard
I do 2.8 for the middle thingy
I understand putting the camera further out and then trucking in field of view
play without gore!!
you want to switch from dodging back and going for a head swing at the same time and kicking them
kick is most important part, if you rush an AI notice how they deal with being smothered
they always kick to create distance
it’s not fun that way 💔💔
you're so right but its genuinely unplayable either way 😔😔
🥹 i hope they fix it soon
don't forget to back up if they're approaching you
2 pretty good kills
you're just weak...
youre telling me you can tolerate gore but not the lack of it
I have a problem which I cannot fix using common methods (reinstall, restart, checking files through steam). Every time I achieve a better class (better than beggar), I just can't use it. I see my loadout in main menu but I spawn without anything else than beggar's stuff. Worse things happen when I try to play free mode - I can't choose any class and I spawn absolutely naked. Also all of my settings reset everytime I start the game (resolution, quality etc.). Has anyone experienced that kind of bug(?) or am I doing something wrong
goofy
Have you done a full clean reinstall
Or just reinstalled through steam
I may have only used steam uninstall
I see, thank you. Does the stance shift give you not matter much, but moreso the speed?
I’m asking as I’ve been figuring out whether it is worth like actually doing shift just for the stance
true true thanks
Try following this guide. It’s for another bug but it’s just a clean reinstall
Delete all files relating to Half Sword existing in your local files. Be sure to back up your screenshots folder if you took any!
Uninstall the Half Sword demo via Steam
Right click on Half Sword Demo in you steam library Manage>Uninstall
IMPORTANT
Press WIN+R then type %localappdata% hit Enter
Now Navigate to and Delete the HalfswordUE5 folder.
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.
do you mean switching hands?
Nah, when you hold shift it lowers you and puts you in like another combat stance
so that's sprint, your character is getting ready to move basically
people have different schools of thought on sprint, but I personally believe that you should almost always be holding shift unless you are kiting multiple enemies, and even then it should be used a ton
Okay what if I told you that I don't have HalfswordUE5 folder in localappdata?
give me two secs and I'll show you something cool
Are you in app data
It’s a hidden file by default
the dodge mechanic is really poorly explained
Press View along the top of your file explorer, then find the option to show hidden files
I am
that guide is probably old, it seems like all half sword files are in steamapps common or binaries
see
oh i cant post screenshots
but what file are y'all looking for? just all half sword installation files?
It’s not old
oh i see it now
This issue occurs when users do not install or run the .exe as admin, this does not give the program the right permissions it needs to populate Appdata.
Issue: HalfSwordUE5 folder is not found in Appdata folder.
Fix: Run as Admin. Right click on Half Sword Demo from your steam library from the popup navigate to Manage>Browse local files. In the folder that pops up find HalfSwordUE5.exe the file extension .exe may not be visible with your folder view settings the file type will be Application.
Right here
Okay so I started the game as admin, and now I am stuck on "choose level of displayed violence" 😭
Now you follow the first guide I sent for clean reinstall haha
Delete all files relating to Half Sword existing in your local files. Be sure to back up your screenshots folder if you took any!
Uninstall the Half Sword demo via Steam
Right click on Half Sword Demo in you steam library Manage>Uninstall
IMPORTANT
Press WIN+R then type %localappdata% hit Enter
Now Navigate to and Delete the HalfswordUE5 folder.
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.
Okay, I've deleted folder in appdata and reinstalled the game through steam. Am I supposed to run the game as admin for "the first time"? (I don't see the folder in appdata)
I would, yes
You made sure to delete the halfsword steam folders too, before the reinstall right?
yes
Then it should work now, let me know
how to win fights as the baron 101
sorry arch almost forgot to show u what i meant
but have u seen the dodge mechanic?
like my swings get slow bc i gotta give myself a small breather between like 2 or so swings
kinda, i know when you first hold shift, you kinda dash on first movement
let me show u on my playthrough with the fast dodge perk since its super noticeable
(i accidnetally just quit the game)
i also keep forgetting i have my half sword mouse profile to where left and right click are reversed
Okay, it seems that everything works as intended and I am able to actually pick my equipment. Thank you good man!
Mee6 in disguise 👅
so this is an example of using dodge to close distance instead of creating it
you can do it while locked on, but it is much less pronounced, I use this same motion to kinda dodge backwards while holding sprint and delivering an overhead, so you can make space while moving your feet back to add power to the downward swing, if you mix that with kicking shield rushers they crumble
to dodge you sprint, strafe, and look the opposite direction
and it does this movement boost thing
this guy pissed me off so im using him like a battering ram rn
i keep getting the fuckass fatal error message everytime i play ultimate challenge, is there any way to reduce the chance of a crash?
turn gore to gentle
Idk who has it worse, the guy with no hands, or the guy that looks like an Oni Mask, that can still talk lol (using stamina/slo-mo mods):

Glad to hear it bud, enjoy
yo, so im on the ultimate challenge and well, it keeps crashing saying "fatal error" i asked this question yesterday(or today), and a person said to lower the max fps
i did that and it didnt help
I’m not sure who told you to lower max fps but, typically the problem is the blood as stated in the recent #updates post. You can limit crashes by ether turning down, or off entirely, the blood slider in settings
i see, thanks for telling me

No worries
Bomb half sword
I see I see. So the stance it makes is not really important, its just moreso the speed
yeah it's not a stance change it just makes your guy ready to move faster at the cost of using stamina
at lot of times as I get better I've gotten the discipline to just tap or hold shift only when I'm doing strikes or making a particularly fast movement for the sake of stamina but it seems like you can sprint around a few steps either direction and recover the stam fast enough for it to not really be an issue unless you're just running
Flibertigibbet
that means u talk excessively 😈😈😈😈👹👹😎
ok edgar
I thought that was just a different photo of you
im not as glorious as lilg4
i'm 4'9 600 lbs irl

lmfao
i look like this but under 5 foot
and really round
dw that guy is probably under 5 foot too

i like you cyclops i take it all back im now making friendship bracelets
just get half sword enhancer and breeze through the gauntlet with 20x strength and invincibility
how do i reset the damage to npc and player? I put both on maximum and now i'm trying to set it back but there's no reset button and deleting the game files didn't do anything
just put them in the middle
Cuckold

that's simply unreliable
shush

thats how its supposed to be anyway
just deleted my files in appdata, reset the damage
how do i cast spells

Is it normal for the half sword trainer mod to crash half sword often?
half sword is naturally unstable, trainer mod is unstable cocaine
turn off gore
how hard do you guys judge the Ai is as of current?
I think its pretty good even if slightly predictable at times
now he did hit me, but i did get a axe in his thigh aswell
can anyone experienced help me out?
probably
Ever since this patch, any time I grab someone with q or e my willie immediately lets go of them within a couple seconds. For some reason, if I grab with the left hand it will stay for much longer, but even then it is flimsy
I can't get any meaningful pulls, throws, or anything anymore
bulbasaur for a gold charizard ass trade
Really good
I tried asking grappler's guild but the channel is dead
if you go close enough to the ground in camera mode itll look like that no matter your graphics
with any class?
not as far as I know
The one exception is if something in spoilerage is knocked out of the ring and an npc was going after it they just kill the selves by running into the edge
is it crashing all the time or just in the ultimate challenge?
thats annoying
I am in ultimate challenge, does my willie have less grip during this? But yeah any tier of class I grab I just let go of them
ultiamte challenge is hell
here let me get a clip for you bro because this is so frustrating, I'm a pretty decent player, it just seems like my guy is letting go no matter what
should be the same as ever tbh
ultimate*
Hey uhh, idk if this is for here or the bugs chat but when I use low quality graphics, it turns my ingame resolution horrible
ngl my characters let go really quick, it was never this bad in older versions
Like not menu elements
I wonder why
They should make it so you can do more wreslting moves
Just had the most awesome AXE THROW REBOUND KICK:

Watch Axe Double Tap Throw! (stamina/slo-mo mods) and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
yea as of right now there are no specific graphics settings so lowering them just makes everything worse
Quality should be texture and light quality not resolution
Or it should be labelled better
Yes exactly
there is but lowering the overall quality still changes the resolution
best way to improve weapon aim, my aim just feels so inconsistent.
i either destroy them or my weapon completely misses or slides off of them
😔 cant wait when they make actual quality sliders, that'll be nice
play more or actually just use the practice dummy
theres no middle ground and idk what to do
Sensitivity
there does actually seem to be a bug where falchions or axes sometimes just dont work as they should and are extremely dull
after that it's just putting time into learning it
Increasing or decreasing?
every weapon either obliterates the enemy or glides off of them
decreasing
but generally yea just play more or mess around with the sensitivity a bit
my sens is really low
idk if its just cause the games a work in progress still, but its 50 50 of hitting them or my weapon doing 0 damage at all
try turning it up then, maybe youre just not swinging fast enough
its so annoying
definitely not a universal issue
yes it seems to specifically be this patch
Encountered this bug lol
i can hit someone with my sword 5 times and they just wont die. other times they'll drop after i barely hit them
@odd kiln @zealous cape https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/kmRj4wwyBgVQDZcGK?invite=cr-MSxVWkcsMzAwMTA4NDM4 this is what I mean
yes I know he kicked me out of the grip once here, but this is how it always is
i've played older versions and the game didnt feel this inconsistent
ive even tested it without them resisting we're both just standing infront of each other and i grab them over and over and my guy is just like "eh I don't feel like it" and lets go
i try to be mericful but i keep accidently killing willy
looks like youre just gripping their arms and theyre shaking you off which I think is intended
here I'll show it without it being on the arms
thank you so much yo
yeah you used to be able to hold on for ages, like 10+ seconds i think. now unless there severely injured or im wearing gloves it doesnt last over 2 seconds
i love wearing gloves in a fist fight
before, you could hold onto an arm (like you can irl - if I have a C grip or monkey grip on your tricep irl you can't just like.. gingerly move it and I completely let go)
good change imo, grabbing was way too overpowered for both the player and AI
gloves for me are worse in fist fight
i think hes about to die
nah brah
but now you can't grapple
the ai can still 100 percent hold on for that 10+ secodns still
being able to knock people out basicallyi nstanly in spoilance
To be fair in the video you're literally twisting your body the other way. It'd natural you'd lose your grip
after the grip weakness and the sturdiness increase
you can pick people up off the ground and they are still "standing"
Theres been atleast 3 or 4 times where they will not let go of me until i kill them. It can be really bad at some points
rip willy
if I hold onto you as tight as I can with both hands and then twist the other way, throwing my weight, you're going to come with me unless you get your hips down and square. People aren't covered in baby oil
things change, its a playtest / demo afterall and theyre trying to find out what works best 🤷♂️ Hard to make everything feel good while keeping things balanced
i wish we had a global stat for how many willies have died
you're right zig
idk what happened but the game seems more luck based then it used to
is anyone else having fatal crash errors with ultimate challenge?
me
radzig kobyla
yes turn off gore
ue5 crash?
yeah
hey zig I think you ARE on to something
ziggler?
hmmm idk if I want to play without gore🤣
its not worth 9it
only for the ultimate challenge
I seem to be able to maintain grips a lot easier this patch if I make sure it's on a stationary body part like not their arms
the gore is funny enough
you can turn it back on after you beat it it seems to be an issue for this fight in particular
ok, I finally got a good run in to like Knight level and crashed
👍 youre welcome
pissed me right off
i was testing something and this bitch actually rolled over with the dagger in him
i've had the same crash out of ultimate challenge
probably with so many bodies without the reset of a new "level" I would imagine
people usually call me that without the l
pushed that shit further in for what reason bro
what's weird is if you do manage to get both grips on the opponents face a lot of times they just surrender immediately
I have too, but much less often
they DO NOT like it lol
kcd and kcd2 refernence
more of a racial slur reference
you can't have a medieval game discord without racism
or at least I haven't seen one yet
deserved to be fair
i swear i take way more damage than the ai man
i will constantly hit someone with no armour with pure sword slashes all over them and they'll still chatge at me
the power of shaders
i get hit with the weakest hit known to mankind and my runs gone
you sure you didnt mess with the damage sliders and forgot about it?
ngl looks worse imo
Preferences
nah, i've checked and there in the middle
.
forgot to reply to it
i'll literaly have a fight go on for 30+ seconds becasue they refuse to die
Obviously but it's a swordfighting game first and foremost and the game wasn't designed with throwing people to the ground in mind
i mean fist play is 1 of the best things in this game'
A decent chunk of the players i've seen love it
would just be overall better if i actually had a decent chance at survival without a weapon
Totally understand, I was just replying to the message saying that you would lose grip in a real situation
Yeah I get that but devs probably just haven't covered it
maybe in the future
Cause you're level 1
gotta be level 3 for embed perms
If it wasn't like that it'd give people a chance spam nsfw content
it's like that in most servers to be fair
yeah, just a tad annoying but i totally get it
my game fatal errored in the ultimate challenge preparation, but if you don' press ok or close the tab the game just doesn't close and you can keep going
behind the scenes
i get ultimate challenge is supposed to be hard and all, but it jsut seems overly hard, like being hard for the sake of being hard
you have to get incredibly lucky at some points
ultimate challenge sucks cus the only weapon you are guaranteed to get is a dinky little knife at the beginning
I mean it is literally called "Ultimate Challenge"
it'd be 1000 times better if i could pick 1 any item
True to its name ig
Have you tried getting good
Give it a shot man! Sounds like a skill issue IMO
it is overly hard for no reason though
success in the ultimate challenge is down to chance
1 hit and you're dead
fr
random weapons SUCKS
if that first guy has any sort of decent weapon you're finished
pretty much any enemy getting something good means you're dead
fr
its that second guy thats the worst man
Unironically, you guys just need to get better at the game. Not even trolling. Practice grappling and using the kicks.
grappling doesnt work properly anymore, you just tend to let go for no reason
first guy has a tiny sickle next guy has a giant sword
im better off using no weapons than the shitty random dropped stuff
I do agree that grappling feels broken since the playtest dropped
best weapon you could ever ask for is something long like spear. pitchfork, hoe etc
like if the enemy weapon spawns werent random it'd be ok
only weapon thats good enough for ultimate challenge
first guy guaranteed to have an axe, second guy guaranteed to have a sword, third guy has a spear, like that
doesnt help when theres 3 enemies charging at me with spiky spear bat things and i have the average butter knife
its only hard for the sake of being hard
which just ruins how the game feels
i think a challenge is ok but this is just completely unintuitive since if first guy has a bad weapon you just have to give up go back to menu then retry
it goes from a wacky physics based combat game to a roguelike with all the odds against you
how do i access my screenshots?
i swear i get the error everytime i get a good start
if you get good at stabbing w the cleaver its a big game changer
randomize gear except instead of pressing a button you have to start the challenge then go back to main menu then go back to challenge again and again until you get the weapon you want
get past 1 and 2 easy and then die to goedendag
theyve nerfed jabbing into the ground or something
the weapon just slides off them instead of actually stabbing half the time

i get you but the game is predevelopment its just a teaser to hold the fanbase over
God I love this game
yea ik
It's so satisfying to get just the right movement you want
its just that ultimate challenge feels a bit disappointing
i used to love stabbing with the sword or spear but now its just not viable, weapon just doesnt actually stab
go into camera mode and then g. If you're talking about where the screenshot is in your files, it's in your game directory so Half Sword Demo\HalfSwordUE5\Screenshots
i find its easier w single handed weapons
agreed though weapon handling has felt worse after playtest
i was expecting you to become the boss or something, like you pick from their weapons and fight an ultimate enemy or something
whole lotta somethings
someone explain to me how i got cut and am now bleeding out after being kicked
God i hate this game
thank youuuuu
especially when the enemy beats you to the knife on the floor or your character wont pick it up for soem reason
games instantly over
modded halfsword is unironically is the best superhero game ever
is there a way to reset my progress ??
Those dodges bruh
I am the flash, but bald
#photography📷 message not looking good for red guy
That's SICK AF! lol
Are you using the Halfsword Enhancer?? I've tried the speed slider, but I stopped using it, since I always end up falling down lol
NOOOOOOOOOOO
this game is so unstable
i crashed right before the baron and i had a placon
turn off blood and gore
i'm not about to go gentle
half sword without blood gives me early playtest flashbacks
well too bad bro
it's always gonna crash there with gore
whether you like it or not
https://i.guns.lol/yfsPS.jpg doing ultimate challenge again because i have no self respect
half sword on gentle looks like i'm ghost fighting, i stab them and they just spontaneously die
well if you're relying on sharp damage in ultimate challenge u already got a problem
u gotta choose ur struggle lol. do you want to fight baron or do you want to risk crashes. honestly 1v1s are normally good
check the pins
first pinned message
i don't exactly spawn with a placon
anything works
even a billhook
you gotta aim to bonk them till they go asleep
not stab them
honestly doing like a J motion with the billhook makes it kinda fun and decent
oh well
its still not amazing but like, you get some good kills consistently with it
maybe try disabling gore after going to the higher tiers
if you want to mutilate people that much
willie when he gets stabbed in the head but it only hits his brain
how does one aim overhead better as well? i am struggling with that the most
im plancon pilled this means NOTHING to me...,.
also practice
fr tho thx for the advice
i just need to know how close they are to death, gentle makes that kinda hard
if they drop their weapons its gg
or if they go limp
or if theyre half limp theyre damaged
try coming at a light angle over your shoulder
in my experience you also get a bit more speed as well
btw heres something fun you can do if you're in brave stand with a great sword
just spin attack at them till theyre in pieces
also i tip i saw once is that: get the angle you want and then drag straight down
I guess I was too vertical
you know what else is too vertical
Even then it gotta still be more to the side
why dont gifs work
you need a level
dude this works wtf
this will sound silly but i need to think of this shit like the kcd2 combat wheel 😭
all overheads go straight down
left and right yk goes left and right
stab
the directions i gotta swing are more general than i thought its just where im preparing the weapon
yeah its pretty good
i find weapon placement is really important
If I’m doing like a swing from the bottom to the top, does it work to also just go more up
It’s kinda like swinging has an air resistance to the path im choosing if ykwim
yeah
yoo tysm
GUYS IM LEARNING (kind of? no idea why THIS works of all things)
Watch Half Sword and millions of other Half Sword videos captured using Medal.
(excuse the random discord conversations)
Are enemies tougher in ultimate challenge?
I'm honestly not sure, it does seem like their AI is better but it is very hard to tell
did a patch help with the fatal crashes? first time i've made it this far
the hunchback of notre dame!
hey guys i feel the game has pretty bad optimization i often crash, is there any way to fix this
With my luck I'd dodge backwards and break my spine on the fence from the speed
Hey guys i'm just wondering if the latest release on steam (demo) can be modded? Like I've noticed that the video above has a guy with clothes on a fist fight... is there any way to do this?
with ovrdth's loadout selector you can pick your own loadout before going into a match
Thanks bro, ill have a look into that. Does it apply for the latest release?
so like to get what I got in that clip I click the beggar tier, then click the loadout I want on ovrdth's and it will send me with that
yea
what if ultimate willie ai is all the movements of all the halfsword players averaged together
Ok thank you!
it would be bad cause there's like thousands of super bad players and then only a couple really good players which would hardly skew the results enough to make willie really good
wtf is that name
Just wondering if theres a specifc place to get the loadout selector, or if nexus mods is fine
OVRDTH Selector on nexus. But yes it's moddable. So far main ones I've seen are weapon packs and Halfsword Enhancer
or loadouts
Nexus
Thank u 🙂
the mods are so peak
Ok so you steal the movements from the best players, then train an AI against that

And it ends up dying to John Pitchfork because the AI was never trained against a peasant
yea they should get the best playr of each tier and make them the ai basically
or at least the boss ai
oh god
maybe a slightly good player but not quite best for normal ai
no that would be impossible
Impossible but funny
commoner boss moment
yea impossible in practice but its just metaphorical for the skill gap
I got the mod working, thanks for the help guys
Very interesting username
I am cum1
is there a cum2
does anyone know a mod or way to remove the obscuring view that helmets or hats give in first person?
all i care about is the commoner hat, there is no reason it should take up 1/3 of your vision!
willie has a small brain
u can be 😉
like something in the center you trip over or step up onto
yea its pretty annoying and it shows up seemingly randomly
seems to be related to the rock patches but not 100% sure, so it usually shows up in any one of those patches and doesn't go away unless game restart
The battleaxe is legit the heaviest weapon in the game
why is my willy naked

guys where are the gore sliders?
im like tripping
i was ingame and slid my gore sliders all the way down but now cant find the setting, it was sliders instead of the 3 settings u pick at main menu
settings -> game -> at the bottom gore
wish me good luck guys i have exam after 1 hour
people who have access to medieval instrument plugins for fl studio may i have them
God be upon yee
how do i play gautlent mode again after i finished it?
😭
AppData\Local\HalfSwordUE5\Saved\SaveGames\SG Gauntlet Progess.sav
but if you beat the baron its supposed to let you play again anyways without deleting
The baron? Its in the last rank?
Oh, ok, i'll try
bruh im tryna play the demo and it wont let me gt past the gore select screen it just wont let me select anything
did the guilds use to require acceptance? I was going back in the chats and I saw a lot of mentioning of "joining" the guilds, of people asking if they could send clips to be worthy of the guilds, and in general a lot more guild-related, community-oriented speaking, instead of what it is now where they send clips without abandon.
we need to reallocate the guilds and get them back this way. have the respective masters of each guild judge people's clips and then allow/disallow them into the guild, where they can, if accepted, present their clips and their ideas on how to further the respective gameplay of that guild. too much is it now, "here's my gameplay" rather than "here's an interesting move you can do, and here is how it is applied". all in all it seems they've lost all structure which I never knew, but looking back seemed so much better an alternative. people discovering new ways to play the game, new mechanics, new behaviors.
of course, everyone would still be able to view the guilds, but as mentioned, be restricted from making an entry, because again, they should be new and valuable insights into the game by someone of proven experience rather than pure gameplay itself or uninformed opinions, both of which do little for fostering a community.
looking in the pins of the guilds, you can see plenty of this former community, where they pioneered, and were then able to share with everyone else. when was the last time something was pinned as useful? months ago, by all accounts, way before even the newest big update. most discussion that has happened since I joined has been in passing on how to play the game from its basics, and as of yet, other than entries I have proposed, I haven't seen much in the way of innovation in the guild I frequent. even by clips, a guild post is made once in a blue moon, and outside of the small rudimentary discussion, nobody talks. it is so stale now, even though there is so much work to be done, and so many people to teach.
bring back guild cohesion... thanks for listening to my ted talk.
too many word... Grunk head hurt
is it more merciful to stab willie or to hit him in the head with blunt weapon
stab prob
I mean, whos to say he would live from a head injury lol
if not have severe mental damage depending on how bad you got em
good point
but like assuming he lives to see after the battle
would it be more merciful to give willie brain damage or to let him die of an infection
is there any way to re-enable the crosshair from the old demo?
completely forgot how useful it was
You will get used to it
i technically did, i've been playing the playtest and updated demo for a while
but then played the old demo again after god knows how long and forgot just how integral it was for my precision
surprised they got rid of it tbh
apparently it's still present but just invisible
so hopefully a mod can bring it back or something
beat his ass
i hated him so much
he aint that hard of a boss
i was on normal settings when i beat his ass
fists only
im halfswording it
it would be merciful to just not kill him bro

You know sometimes in spoilance you get to wear those metal gloves?
Hear me out, you know those shields that extend to your forearm?
Use both 
Works nicely for close combat-ish
Was trying to go for a no kill run, just knock them over and have them plead mercy. Disarming them with the long range weapons and shi
i like this game
why is gambeson so impenetrable by longsword in the ultimate challenge only
like i know its supposed to do something against slashes but shit man its more effective than plate armor becasue there are no weakspots
how it feels to land a spin kick
I wish the lock on camear didnt always lock on to the guy in your periphary and instead locked on the one closest to you in the center of your camera cause like what bro
bro it’s so annoying but you gotta just unlock then play wit the cam but i agree they should fix it
One time I managed to win a fight with just a leg. No arms and no right leg. I sat for 2 minutes figuring out how to hop just to kick him to death
My man survived and miraculously gained his limbs back in the next match
Everywhere except my country apparently
Should be able to bind the lock on target, closest by FOV, distance, crosshair etc
Can someone tell me the best settings for the game?
EVERYTHING OFF
Guys, how do i win this fight?
spin kick
punching is surprisingly effective, also this happened after i won and died at the same time.
nvm.....
"oh hey thats not good at all"
what was that
anyone's having fatal errors during the final challenge too?
yeah, it's a bug with the game's blood/gore, you have to disable both of them during the final challenge
okie, will try. thanks for the tip ^w^
is the game going to ever release on geforce now?
Hi
Stance user
thats why i quit halfsword too many sweats 😔
I died by breaking my neck while trying to ride a willie's neck while he was getting up
Half sword abyss challenge: No matter what, when you stumble upon any armor or weapon that wasn't dropped by yourself you must pick it up and drop your own weapon. Yes, this means you must sacrifice your axe for a knife if you find one, and you cannot pick up the items you dropped yourself. You can pick up dropped items from OPP willies
so much accuracy
bro is turning into a mindflayer
What do you use for clips?
medal
Why does my medal my my clips super laggy😭
Only on half sword
It works fine everywhere else
what's a mindflayer?
Try restarting your game and turning down settings, happens to me sometimes
i don't see the resemblance
https://i.guns.lol/ogaAU.mp4 improved my reshade preset some more
It missed. The mindflayers transform from regular humans and their transformation looks kinda like your photo because of the blood looking like a tentacle.
aaaa
the game keeps crashing when i try to fight the baron, any advice for how to avoid this
Turn off blood
Whats the point in 'arrow time' - when you click F
ty
any advice for the fight? i am struggling to make it to the baron
Chat when playing halfsword knight and baron and the other armored dude gets fatal crashes the militia and other role sdo not get the fatal crashes just the knights i think correct me if i am wrong
i just beat it 5 mins ago,tbh the spike spear is the best weapon for that fight so far
I keep getting stuck with ass weapons until i get beaten on by 3 guys in armour
i really hate that i have to fight for 10 mins the full armored enemies,they seems like they are made out of bedrock
if im lucky i can get a barstand sword
idk if is good against him,it seems like swords make 0 dmg to armor,and he is full armored
is the crash bug in the barons challenge still in the game?
is it possible to crank someones neck to break it
the only place you can hit with the sword is his eyes
yep,disable the gore,its working for me
sad
almost won once ands then
crash
Fr
if you grab them you can try and sneak a dagger in their armpit
Or half sword it
yea i don't have good aim,i usually use a blunt weapon and smash their head
based
When will he learn?
Price tbd still
Just, indie prices
19.99$
just protect your body.
head*
playing turtle IS pretty wussy but
it works
willie can take a lot of hits to the gut
fellas what faction boost do you prefer
i only tried less damage taken but that one is a bit lame
2 hits on my head
quicker dodging
what exactly does dodging look like in this game
i hold shift to move a bit quicker but i wouldnt exactly call that dodging
its really fast bursts of speed dude
its dodging.
They need to improve dodging
i guess i will give that a shot
gotta stab commoner boss in the gut with a pitchfork first
yanking your camera / weapon in the direction your dodging makes it way more apparent
but a simple step off line is enough to be considered a dodge
aka tapping ur movement keys while in shift
keyword tap
you can also move your whole body in certain cases but not recommended
?
i have lock on
what
i just let go of m1 if i want to move my camera around
if i want it to lock on just press m1 again
no
im doing the camera moving on purpose
If you were fighting someone irl would you not be “locked on” to them
i dont like lock on on any game
morning jaime, morning gas
i almost never use it even in elden ring or dark souls
some more cool foot work
And thus lock on is more realistic
i either finally went crazy or i discovered a shadow monster on my property
Unless you’re fighting multiple opponents then it depends I guess
i played a lot of for honor so the lock on system in this game works pretty much the same as that
let go of m1 or "the lock on" and press again to re-lock to a different target etc
sorry that's me
you're the one that made my shadow triplicate and one of them wasnt right?
your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries, i fart in your general direction
I still havent figured out how to install weapon packs.
Wdym weapon packs
mods
exactly. I have Ovrdths.
is there a way to disable the abyss when i die?
No.
I bet the out of demo game will have that ability but im not sure.
damn, thank you anyway
it's pretty much just quicksteps in any direction
ye i figured it out but thanks for the footage
rate how beautiful this throw is 0 out of 10
-10
why -
-.-
8/10
could be better? 
yes
