[supple flint]

this design is very human

[storm kettle]

Real

Also bro has a swamp under his bed

[lethal crag]

and a watermelon hes sleeping on apparently 😭

[storm kettle]

Eh

I've slept on worse

[oblique reef]

Will DLSS or other upscalers be in the game?

[tight isle]

i have unlocked a new secret nepalese technique

[grave valve]

dunno if this is the place for it, but i could really use some advice on how to do just about anything with precision

it feels as if i can only really... flail my attacks semi wildly at best

tldr im having skill issues and could use advice on how to not have skill issues

[loud stone]

brooo same

[grave valve]

i try to swing, and swing doesn't go anywhere. it just shifts guard
i try to shift guard, and i throw a swing.

like...?

annnd died in the abyss by walking on an axe....

great.

awesome reset right there.

[loud stone]

how far have you gotten in gauntlet

i've got to milita before dying

[grave valve]

i reached the boss of soldier

died thrice over aagainst him (got back up via abyss each time) before the game finally decided i had had too much fun, and i proceeded to get mulched in the fight and abyss

[loud stone]

and im back into the abyss

for the second time,

and died in the abyss.

[grave valve]

welcome to the abyss

[light monolith]

anyone know why my game is stuttering when swinging a weapon?

and only then

cpu has room to spare, got enough memory

idk

[loud stone]

probably cause bugs?

[grave valve]

yaaaaay abyss again...

[loud stone]

demo bugs?

i mean check your hardware the game just might not like what your packing

it could be an issue

[shadow coyote]

wait they are REALLY added fall damage🐦🐦🐦

[grave valve]

uh, yeah? i think thats been a thing for a while

[light monolith]

no sheet

im asking if theres a fix

[grave valve]

and died in abyss.

yay.

[loud stone]

same.

[grave valve]

i cant wait to repeat the early tiers... again.........

[loud stone]

same here.

[grave valve]

like

¯_(ツ)_/¯

i guess i'll just go grind until the control make any semblance of sense and i can actually do stuff with intent.

[lone smelt]

Flail when???

[wispy vale]

[grave valve]

would honestly go so hard

[dapper trail]

its not new

[pearl ferry]

whats your sens

[tight isle]

okay master wu

[dapper trail]

im just saying

[grave valve]

really low

[dapper trail]

how low

[grave valve]

maybe at 10%?

[dapper trail]

no like dpi wise

[pearl ferry]

if you're "switching guards" and your swings "arent doing anything" then turn it up

[tight isle]

if ur swinging and its just shifting guards are you need to throw ur mouse across the desk for a swing lol

[pearl ferry]

you're swinging too slow

[dapper trail]

WHAT IS YOUR DPI

[grave valve]

i dont know

i dont think i've ever checked what my specific dpi is

[dapper trail]

can you check then

[tight isle]

well ur either gonna need to change your sens in game, your mouse sens, or adapt

[dapper trail]

mines 18k for reference

change sens

[tight isle]

i dont get how people have sens that high

[dapper trail]

i guess im just built diffrent

[grave valve]

im legitimately unsure where to check dpi...

[pearl ferry]

if you dont mess with it it's probably 800

morning bullying

[fathom helm]

does anyone know how to fix the glitch where you cant select anything on startup?

[tight isle]

i wonder if its just a low dpi thing cause my stabs are not that fuckin accurate

or maybe im ass

[pearl ferry]

alt and move your mouse up as you step forward to generate more thrust

I use standard sens and 800 dpi

[tight isle]

okay i might just be ass cause i do do that but it seems to veer to the left or right a decent bit

actually its worse than i thought
i just have an autistic ass mousegrip and my mouse ends up rotating

[pearl ferry]

it takes a bit of practice but once your mind connects with the tip of your sword you can aim your stabs from pretty much everywhere

and the latest patch buffed stabs too

[tight isle]

im actually too much of a barbarian for stabs i need to be in kissing distance of willie

[pearl ferry]

yea i appreciate my cartel violence sometimes too

[sly rapids]

#game-footage-🎮🎥 message zombie fr

[worn matrix]

hello the game is out?

[tight isle]

its the demo still

last update was april

minus some small changes

[soft osprey]

Early access comes out in Q4 of this year, so October-December

Which will be paid

[tight isle]

it should be 4 quadrillion dollars

[soft osprey]

I agree

Even better, charge $10, then after an hour of playtime force people to pay another $20 or the game gets removed

[pearl ferry]

it should be 80.99 after all nintendo does it for less quality!!!!!!!

[worn matrix]

okay so he out in december

[soft osprey]

I can’t wait for halfsword battle pass and micro transactions like the “blood dlc” and the “dismemberment dlc”

ALSO

This seems highly anti semitic

[pearl ferry]

Just a tad

Reacting with an angry jewish man to a comment about greed and money and then moving on like you didn't do it is kinda funny

[soft osprey]

Maybe don’t post shit like that

[dusk adder]

https://tenor.com/view/look-up-scared-willem-dafoe-gif-17761333

oh damn that wasnt even their first jewish reaction image of tonight i thought it was the one under my earlier post LOL

i think someone here is a #edgelordextrodinaire

[fossil pagoda]

Hi, I am currently making a doc with all of the current known bugs in the game, does anyone have anything to give? (literally everything)

if u wanna see it u can see t in #1381970176244715640

[tight isle]

i dont remember if i posted this one but heres a decent stab parry i got

[jolly gorge]

is it allowed to use the barron in the no death speedrun categorrj?

[torpid mortar]

he was at the fence and i just started ripping him up with the dagger

😁

[fossil pagoda]

gameplay:

[dusk adder]

buddy is zooming around with that one leg

[torpid mortar]

this was the fight that followed

[fossil pagoda]

Happend to me already, put it already.

[torpid mortar]

i could only get a final fuck you before

[dusk adder]

this aint the thread bud

[fossil pagoda]

ik, but had to say it.

[dusk adder]

💀

[fossil pagoda]

what u gon do

[dusk adder]

https://tenor.com/view/sheep-review-dont-care-playing-trampoline-gif-7052415346415844597

[fossil pagoda]

wanna hear a secret technique?

[dusk adder]

https://tenor.com/view/shannon-sharpe-undisputed-nope-funny-face-gif-536487951695337499

[fossil pagoda]

ight, your lose. could have gotten to become god without cheating.

[torpid mortar]

he didnt like that

[fossil pagoda]

Threw it?

[torpid mortar]

no i ran up to him and shoved it inbetween his eyes

[fossil pagoda]

beautiful

[torpid mortar]

if you just run in like a dumbass and dont care to parry you can do stuff like that

[fossil pagoda]

I parry a lot

its ez if u get good

[torpid mortar]

i already know how to parry properly

[fossil pagoda]

SAME

[torpid mortar]

i just like fucking around

[fossil pagoda]

sorry for caps

[tight isle]

throwing weapons is so much more fun than parrying smh my head

lazer eyes

[fossil pagoda]

omg

first time i got actually stabbed by a dagger in this game

[torpid mortar]

and why even parry when you can do dumb shit like this

i bet you have

0 idea

whats going on in the photo

and neither do i

oh he lost his leg

[fossil pagoda]

bingo

[torpid mortar]

true

[fossil pagoda]

i don't know how to kill this dude

[torpid mortar]

when you parry greatsword you needa push upwards or into the way he swung

you can barely find a riposte window against him

play safe against commoner boss

dont do what i do

[fossil pagoda]

usually I don't parry greatswords

I just kill them immediatly

[torpid mortar]

theres alot of times that you actually need to parry him

because greatsword swings with low weight (no armor) are really heavy

as proven by the commoner boss

[fossil pagoda]

interesting

let me try this

.

I forgot

let me just cheat the ultmate challange here

[hardy hemlock]

lil bit of linkin park at the end there?

[fossil pagoda]

did you guys notice that npcs don't get knocked out?

[naive holly]

They def can

FwahPAM

Clip unrelated lmao

[torpid mortar]

npcs can get knocked out; it just doesnt happen when you stab them in the chest yk?

[naive holly]

Yeah blunt damage to the helmet usually does it, or fists to face

[fossil pagoda]

I had three people on one guy with armor

like full armor

all of us were with

big ass pickaxes

with blunt

and we smashed his face non stop

while he is on the floor

[tight isle]

aim better smh

[fossil pagoda]

and he doesn't get knocked out

BRO I HIT HIS HEAD EVERY TIME

[tight isle]

hit the top of his head

[fossil pagoda]

I did...

[tight isle]

hit harder

idk

[tight isle]

only the best

[fossil pagoda]

3 ppl on one guy let me remind you

[tight isle]

also what do u mean pickaxes

do u have a modded weapon

or was it abyss

[lone smelt]

the dukes

[fossil pagoda]

WTF WAS THAT OMG

A ENEMY JUST DID A JUMP OVER HEAD TO ME

[lone smelt]

vid?

[fossil pagoda]

I don't got it 😭

[lone smelt]

nooooo

[fossil pagoda]

man that was so fucking cool

[lone smelt]

What vhappened

like straight over you?

[light monolith]

what is half sword rendered in?

bc I think my earlier mentioned freezing thing is an unreal engine issue cause RDR2 and all my other stuff is fine beside spadce marine 2, which is UE5.

its even when half sword is paused

if my mouse moves my frame times triple

[fossil pagoda]

no literally, like, bro jumped up in the air and with a one handed sword slashed vertically towards me

like legit a anime move

[lone smelt]

lmao

[tight isle]

halfsword is UE5

[light monolith]

AHA

mouse polling rate

frametimes are fine with anything below 4000hz

[fossil pagoda]

lmao

got yo nose

[light monolith]

or maybe above 2000Hz. Idk, can't be specific.

[lusty knot]

this game needs a relase date me and my mate are having way to much fun

[solemn holly]

holy dumping

[light monolith]

you know it

[tight isle]

are those 2 willies making out at the end

oh nbm

thats a sword

[light monolith]

gimme a sec

[light monolith]

some of these are here from the sexual tension alone

who knew willie could be so freaky

[timber quiver]

how to play with friend

[tight isle]

theres no multiplayer

[light monolith]

someone modded it

[tight isle]

what

[light monolith]

I saw it somewhere

local co-op

or steam remote play

[tight isle]

i see a split screen

mod

[light monolith]

thats it

[olive cliff]

why does the people do friendly fire in small buhort?

[tight isle]

just restart the game that usually fixes it for me

[fossil pagoda]

opinion?

[soft osprey]

Split screen mod is for the old demo

But, split screen is also confirmed to be actually coming

Hopefully in early access

[olive cliff]

dont ban me for this but sometimes when i accidentally press C i see the character without pants again dont ban me for this but if its a glitch, please fix it because it freezes my game too sometimes

[tight isle]

yeah my smile faded when i saw that

naked willie is marked as sensitive in this server smh my head

[soft osprey]

Yeah Thats my fault. We had someone get real up in arms about mods(me) posting “porn” aka naked Willie. So we had to limit it and now has to be spoilered usually..though realistically..eh..

[fossil pagoda]

moai, can you pin msgs?

[soft osprey]

I can if it’s needed, yeah

[fossil pagoda]

could you pin the vids and images of bugs in my bug list channel?

also, opinion on pic?

[tight isle]

i think the devs already have a list of bugs

[fossil pagoda]

this is for community aswell.

gtg now, see yall later.

[light monolith]

can't have shit in detroit

[stiff viper]

YOU DESKINED HIM

[tight isle]

go go gadget acid bucket

[sweet wave]

why does skinning something mean you take off the skin

[tight isle]

the same way trimming makes trims

[light monolith]

satisfactory 1.1 update dropped

[ripe patio]

Yall gotta help me, I am stuck on t3 the bossfight bru

[dire portal]

tbh for me playing with damage at the lowest level is more fun than high damage because you still can instakill/be instakilled if you get hit in a vital organ

[fading vigil]

guys, what is this weapon I am using called

damn It did not embed

[dire portal]

halberd?

Wait

[fading vigil]

just halberd, there is no additional semi-official name?

[dire portal]

someone in #game-footage-🎮🎥 said it was a voulge

[jolly gorge]

im at commoner for beggar only lets hope the boss doesnt cut me in half

[dire portal]

as someone who still hasn't beaten the commoner boss i agree

[wind charm]

tf

Wrong video lmao

[dire portal]

[candid walrus]

Uh... Anyone have a fix for Willie squatting for no reason as soon as he uses the cognitive ability to hold a sword and moving around?

Ah nevermend it just happens whenever he moves

[dapper trail]

[bold frost]

Yeah it's an early version of a halberd

[light pike]

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/ksSHXlXK4Q6tyFVH8?invite=cr-MSx0OVcsMjg3NjQ4MDQ5

i got jumpscared ngl

[still hornet]

hey guys is there a way to reset ur progress?

[dapper trail]

yes

one sec

[fading vigil]

as long as you live it works

[dapper trail]

what

i meant on the strikes

my performance

[fading vigil]

as long as the opponent dies they work

[still hornet]

how do i reset my progress?

[fading vigil]

I'd assume deleting C:\Users\*your username here*\AppData\Local\HalfSwordUE5 would work

[gritty sparrow]

theres a centipede in my game and every time i look at it my game crashes, can i turn this off in the settings?

[still hornet]

alr thanks ill try

[light pike]

???

ive never seen a centipede once in half sword

[gritty sparrow]

really? i thought it was a common thing everytime ive played theres always traces of him

[dapper trail]

what are you even talking about

is this a troll

[gritty sparrow]

like on the wall and shit i think hes just has a high poly count and thats why its crashing me

[gritty sparrow]

bro im not crazy

like theres a centipede

have yall never seen him

[dapper trail]

crazy? i was crazy once

NO WE HAVE NEVER SEEN A FUCKIN CENTIPEDE

[gritty sparrow]

dude EVERYTIME i play HES there

i swear im not bugging

[dapper trail]

clip it

[gritty sparrow]

im out right now and after i get home i gotta go to work

[light pike]

yeah im p sure hes lyin cuz i js checked the walls

[gritty sparrow]

ill do it when i get off

im not i swear

alright later tonight ill show yall

im not bugging

[dapper trail]

if dont actually show legit proof i will slash a innocent centipedes throat

[dapper trail]

thats not critique

[fading vigil]

true

[dapper trail]

please i just want to improve if i can

[dire portal]

i just beat a carnage as the ultimate challenge character

[dapper trail]

GIVE ME REAL CRITIQUE PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE

[fading vigil]

advice: try killing the opponent more

[dapper trail]

i will hold a duck hostage until you give me real critique on my strikes

[light pike]

bro never stood a chance

[dapper trail]

he stood

[dapper trail]

WHY ARE YOU NAKED

[light pike]

i dunno man

[light pike]

this is just how it was

[dapper trail]

but uh will you give me critique on this

pls

[light pike]

i cant really give critique man

everyone plays their own way

[waxen lance]

I am the man of many purple

[dire portal]

duels with the ultimate challenge character are fun until your opponent draws a shortsword

[dapper trail]

critique doesnt only mean - you are bad at this thing

[light pike]

yeah i know

but i dont really have critique to give

[dapper trail]

:C

why

[light pike]

because idk how to give critique gng

[dapper trail]

oh well

wavv

critique ples

[minor oasis]

this is the medieval equivalent of flexing a diamond crusted rolex and gold grills

[minor oasis]

what shall i critique good sire?

[dapper trail]

AHA YES

[dapper trail]

THIS

thy lordship is of exellence, m lord

[minor oasis]

You could've opened the slash with a right tailgate given the shortword was on his other hand, missed slash, hit head instead of incapacitating dagger, final stab is good

[dapper trail]

by final stab do you mean the one i used to end him or, the one before that

[minor oasis]

the one to end him

[dapper trail]

ah

i didnt like the one i used to end him

felt shallow

can you critique more tho

i have more clips

[minor oasis]

no need to be fancy when an opponent is near death

[dapper trail]

true, true

[minor oasis]

uhh sure but idk how to be harsh lol

[dapper trail]

is oke

you did good here

leeets see

[minor oasis]

alr alr

[dapper trail]

its kind of a short clip

exporting rn

its only one slash actually

[small obsidian]

kor i have a tip if you would like

[dapper trail]

after his critique

[small obsidian]

is that a yes

[dapper trail]

yes

[small obsidian]

swing through not just hit

[minor oasis]

the hit was decent, you could've gone maybe a bit higher to get his arm and force willie to one hand

[small obsidian]

your swings dont go deep

[dapper trail]

the hit after that i cut his arm of btw

[minor oasis]

oh fair

[light pike]

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/ksTaMusYoqEpitKd_?invite=cr-MSxGUFUsMjg3NjQ4MDQ5 he aint expect my special technique

[dapper trail]

if you got slashed there it would still fucking hurt

[fair stump]

so is it just me or is this game heavily filled with fatal errors that dont actully mean anything and just close your game?

[dapper trail]

dont mean anything

nope

[light pike]

the blood sometimes causes fatal errors

[dapper trail]

they do

[small obsidian]

yes but hurting and losing a limb are different

[dapper trail]

or more like they have a real cause

[dapper trail]

what limb would he be losing there

[small obsidian]

it also helps with light armor

i saw the first clip you hit his arm and instantly pulled away

[dapper trail]

scaredy cat 🐈‍⬛

@minor oasis

[minor oasis]

ok, i like that one lol

[dapper trail]

do YOU have any good clips

also i would love to see ehat you think of this monstrosity

is wavey dead

[minor oasis]

im just locked in

[minor oasis]

i don't sadly

[dapper trail]

locked in for what

naur

[minor oasis]

good slash, instant breakneck

[dapper trail]

is there anything to improve in this clip @minor oasis

[minor oasis]

very nice riposte, i like that one too

[dapper trail]

is there anything to improve tho

AND THIS AHA

@minor oasis i swear if i have to keep @tting you for attention

[fading vigil]

if we're sharing around tips, was [this (link to game footage channel)](#game-footage-🎮🎥 message) a good move/can this be repeated? Also, how to get more control/knowledge over altitude of swings/stabs?

[minor oasis]

got too close

[torpid mortar]

my mouth is on fucking fire

should i play halfsword

[dapper trail]

nothing happend tho

[minor oasis]

[fading vigil]

yes [but it won't fix it]

[minor oasis]

in one encounter it would

[dapper trail]

is there anything to improve on the first clip tho

[fading vigil]

counterpoint: nothing ever happens

[torpid mortar]

im sitting here with a fizzy drink and spicy ass noodles

the drink

does not help

[minor oasis]

truth nuke

[minor oasis]

which one

[torpid mortar]

will be hopping on halfsword

[dapper trail]

[minor oasis]

[dire portal]

i just busted a knight's head open on the fence

[dapper trail]

#photography📷 AGAIN #general-catfish-🐱🐟

vro

😭

oh crap

i forgot to make dinner

noodles it is

cya

[sharp oyster]

can you break bones?

[dire portal]

yes

usually with the mace

[sharp oyster]

ight tyy

saw it happen once but wasnt sure

[rocky ruin]

how do you steal enemy armor?

[thorn comet]

I usually steal helmets by slicing their heads in half

No idea about breastplates

[whole dust]

practicing in free mode for baron

[rocky ruin]

yeah i was wondering if i could get the first bosses helmet in the abyss

[whole dust]

you have to get lucky and hope it actually drops but weapons are always guranteed

slicing their heads off isnt always guranteed cause chain mail exists

so just focus on getting good without armor and practice in freemode in the lower ranks

[north dawn]

left-hand-only fencing is just somehow so good

[grave valve]

did you try asking the enemy nicely for their armor

[rocky ruin]

yes, they say "Noooo!"

[grave valve]

and speaking of that

yay got insta killed time to go to abyss :3

[split ridge]

one of the helmets are glitched

my screen shows just red with it equipped

its the sorta oblivion looking helemt

[north dawn]

STOP, Youve violated my mother-
get back to the ship as soon as posisble. We'll bang ok?

[grave valve]

victory achieved by stabbing a guy in the dick :3

annnnd insta killed by pitchfork......

[grave valve]

the only forgiveness in gauntlet is that the first tier is just a snooze fest provided you get the tall candle holder on the boss

[split ridge]

ngl i suck at halfsword

first boss is easy just use the knife in the middle

insta win

[dire portal]

Yeah

tier 2 is the hardest point of the game imo

[vivid gale]

It's not noble on your side...ser

[grave valve]

yep

[dire portal]

No armor but great weapons

[grave valve]

the boss is, in very generous terms, busted

if we are ungenerous, it's just overtuned as shit

[dire portal]

Nah the boss is fine

boss 3 is the hardest one for me

[north dawn]

to be fair. against a dude with a Plancon it would be the only suitable thing to do. even if he has already been decapitated

[grave valve]

in my experience the boss really isn't fine at tier 2

[dire portal]

every boss after that uses polearms that you can just parry

same for boss 2

[grave valve]

it breaks down to just

go anywhere near him

he pokes me with the scythe

die instantly beacuse physics hate you

or i somehow kill him almost as soon as the fight starts

[vivid gale]

No These weapons are less dangerous and dishonest than flaberg

[dire portal]

The strategy for polearms is to swipe from below

[north dawn]

Plancon is about the most destructive weapon you could bring

[grave valve]

yeah so i cannot do anything from below

or like.. anything with ANY degree of precision

[minor oasis]

may i introduce you to the poleaxe

[velvet pine]

Really? I just swing left to right and take their arm off or embed the polearm in their neck. Seems to be a winner it's usually one swipe hold g repeat

[minor oasis]

two baby kisses and he collapsed, lol

[grave valve]

annnd another abyss. yay.

and dead.

yay.

[hardy hemlock]

Should try fighting first person in the unarmed fights haha

shits fun as fuck

[grave valve]

it really isn't

[hardy hemlock]

I'm having fun

[grave valve]

because i have done it. so many times.

[hardy hemlock]

Chuck on some linkin park and pretend he's your stepdad

[grave valve]

that's even less appealing

[hardy hemlock]

tbh I don't really care, just offering something for fun

You don't have to do it

[split ridge]

tier 3.

[grave valve]

its just that i find tier 1 to be

flail mouse around
get to boss, actually play the game a bit

annnd then tier 2 happens and has actual fun content apart from the boss

[dire portal]

Tier 3's boss is difficult but i find surviving tier 2 to be harder

[split ridge]

tier 2 is easy. utilise the axe

but tier 3

is essentially just luck and movement

[grave valve]

i feel its vice versa (even if i think the only luck factor is the boss in tier 2)

i feel a lot more in control in tier 3

and ate another abyss reset. great.

[light jay]

i am way too bad at this game to get through the ultimate challenge or whatever

[rocky ruin]

farmer scythe boss is easiest in the whole game then the 3rd boss with the big ass sword kills me instantly

[grave valve]

okay, how do i kill him then

because it feels as if every single fight against him is just
go near hi-
dead.

[rocky ruin]

idk i just get a two-handed weapon and randomly swing at him and somehow it works

[grave valve]

"easiest boss"
"oh okay how do i do it"
"idfk just swing"

thanks.

[little verge]

Tier 2 boss?

[grave valve]

yeah.

aka

"i wont let you near me, and touching the backside of my scythe is a 50/50 on insta killing you"

[rocky ruin]

thats why i love playing abyss cause i can get his weapon and just slice people in half instantly

[little verge]

Rush him and keep to his right. If you get in close on the right he won't have a good swing on you.

[hardy hemlock]

Brodog if you're that mad, maybe take a break and come back later

[grave valve]

his, or my right?

i know you specified "his right" but i want to make sure i'm understanding this correctly.

[little verge]

Your right, you want to stay outside of scythe at all costs.

[grave valve]

okay, thanks

tried his right initially, found it to not really do much to help

[little verge]

I totally misworded good call confirming.

[grave valve]

no worries, thanks

and nvm

[little verge]

Also the large woodcutting axe in Half Sword grip (rmb click grip) is the best for getting in close and ending him, imo at least.

[grave valve]

had to surrender cause he clipped me and i got insta killed in the next fight.

.. so yay. time to regrind back to him again... brb.

[paper notch]

during the playtest it took like a day or 2 for me to get aproved once i asked, is it just an automatic deley or did they individualy aproved people? if the later what made them chose you can play and you cant

[grave valve]

the two hander, yeah?

[little verge]

That is the one. Best weapon until longswords IMO.

[rocky ruin]

i like using the pitchfork

[grave valve]

agreed, it's busted

like...

i wont lie. the amount of fights i've won simply because of how this thing works is insane

(a lot of which, frankly, i should have lost)

[tough yew]

dunno why your asking, but it used to be done manually, not an automatic delay

[little verge]

I suck with it. I have better control over the weapons with more weight. Pitchfork stabs are very handy though.

[paper notch]

im just curious

so like what decided if someone was accepted or not

[grave valve]

pitchforks are so scary at tier 2 i just surrender if my enemy has one

it is not worth the risk of insta death.

[tough yew]

Everyone was accepted

[little verge]

Yeah it's a WIP. Sharpness of weapons plus unintended physics responses make for some interesting experiences.

[little verge]

Everyone got in no restrictions.

[rocky ruin]

yeah, i just recently got good with the spear-like weapons, the NPCs are so busted with them insta death

[grave valve]

annnd scythe one shots me fpor the milliont thime.

[little verge]

Ah they are essential to learn to beat though, If you don't learn to take down pitchforks spears are going to feel impossible.

[paper notch]

do y'all play with super high sensitivity?

[winter wasp]

Dayum, brudda.

From what i can tell, you hit him with your crossguard in his visor.

Never seen that before in my life.

[grave valve]

im coming up to the same amount of attempts on this shit as i had against Genichiro.

[tough yew]

if only i could hide the cursor

[grave valve]

im quitting there for the day

i cannot be asked to regrind to the scythe again only to insta die again. (im getting it to 20~ ish times now)

will beat him tomorrow.

[rocky ruin]

goodluck tier 3 is even worse

[tough yew]

yea that's cool n all.. but have you ever seen someone do this?!

[grave valve]

already been at tier 3 a number of times

it's infinitely more fun

[grave valve]

what

[winter wasp]

N o p e

Never seen a poleaxe noclip through chainmail in my entire life

[rocky ruin]

tbh when you get a bunch of armor at later stages the game is easier because its harder to die

[winter wasp]

That poleaxe head must be made out of magnetite

only logical explanation

[grave valve]

how the hell did you change the hell did you get the hands to change position like that?

[winter wasp]

Press X

[paper notch]

do y'all player with super high sensitivy or averge one?

[tough yew]

its one hell of a pollax i can tell you that

[winter wasp]

Yup, forged by the dwarves who made Thor's axe, that's all i know

[rocky ruin]

i have mine higher than normal

[winter wasp]

I have actually never seen any sort of poleaxe weapon in any sort of mythology, now that i think of it

would be pretty sick

[paper notch]

i have mine on super high

[grave valve]

holy shit

actually hugve

thanks for letting me know :D

[winter wasp]

[grave valve]

sandreime out here posting trvth nukes

[winter wasp]

Np mate, enjoy your bashing of Willies

[grave valve]

yeah i ran into the issue a lot with polearms/totally not polearms (farming tools) that i could swing em one direction

but the return swing would be real awkward,
this helped. al ot

[winter wasp]

I just went in my HS Clips folder to look for one specific clip, and it dawned on me that i have roughly about 50 clips i have to export.

This game used to be good, but holy hell after a recent update its so garbage

when did knives cut you in half is this game just a big clipfarm now

[tough yew]

what level of violence are you playing at

[north dawn]

the only correct one

[vapid carbon]

the Anakin treatment

[paper notch]

the old dude with the stick in ninjago

[grave valve]

i somehow cut underneath a guys gorget

10/10

[north dawn]

what I hate about the new update is that the enemies will lay down and start whining as soon as they cant immediately stand back up, or when they drop their weapon for 3 seconds

[thin canyon]

that's why

give it a shot at like gruesome and hopefully it wont be the same

[thorn delta]

fairs

[hardy edge]

what setting are best for performance? even with a decent pc i struggle with sudden drops

[north dawn]

"Decent PC" for unreal games is like an i7 13th gen and a 3080 or above

[tough yew]

always choose dx11 and perhaps high

[hardy edge]

i have a RX 7700XT with ryzen 5600x so i thought i would be fine but maybe i was wrong xD\

[north dawn]

Ive seen the 5060ti and i5 12400 compared to your specs. common red team L

[mint wadi]

I call this my Gladiator loadout.

[hardy pivot]

how are you man posting vids it wont let me

[hardy pivot]

how do you get perfect head shots

[mint wadi]

I have a lot of hours in the game. it's just practice, really.

Fine tune your sensitivity.

[hardy pivot]

also its so bright and zoomed out

[mint wadi]

The zoom out is the FOV in the settings. Higher fov is higher zoom out.

m00 uses a reshade I think.

Or just really high settings.

[hardy pivot]

and i cant dodge cause my shift key is really broken i have to press it so hard

[mint wadi]

Damn.

[hardy pivot]

THIS COMMONER BOSS BRO

[north dawn]

you see how he immediately got up? he didnt give up because he was able to stand up. I dont know what mods you have but opponents on my end seem to sometimes just trip on their own and go to sleep for like a minute.

[hardy pivot]

i tripped on a barstool and got my head chopped off one time

OHHH ITS THE FOV I CAN HIT PERFECT HEAD SHOTS NOW

LOL

just one tapping everything

[north dawn]

<@&1080390104562016306> destroy

thank you

[hardy pivot]

do you hate it when you stab the crap out of them and they dont die

[glass arch]

commoner is axe or greatsword?

[hardy pivot]

greatsword

[glass arch]

i hate him so much

[hardy pivot]

yeah

[glass arch]

the actual bane of my existance

[mint wadi]

Alright I have optimized the gladiator loadout.

Also yes broken neck.

[hardy pivot]

you guys have abiss fog off or on

[hardy pivot]

axe guy just time it

[glass arch]

you can beat axe with hands

[glass arch]

mine is off, i like the dark

[hardy pivot]

yeah i use knife or candel stick tho

[glass arch]

big candelabra is goated in abyss

[hardy pivot]

[mint wadi]

I think this is the coolest kick I've ever done.

Also the music matches lol

[hardy pivot]

KO

i just use the pitchfork untill malita

[ivory pumice]

dude his axe slightly touched my leg

[summer brook]

turn down gore

[north dawn]

does turning down gore reduce the damage you take too?

[summer brook]

no

[north dawn]

the gore is not the problem. the problem is that dudes with heavy weapons will accidentally 1-hit you while theyre not even attacking

[hardy pivot]

gore doent reduce dmg?

[summer brook]

his problem is that he got touched by the axe then was dismembered

lower gore has harder dismemberment

[hardy pivot]

ohhh it stops dismemberment

what if i just turn it off

[north dawn]

so wtf does this mean

[summer brook]

you take the same damage at different gore levels

the damage slider changes the damage taken

[tawdry patio]

I 🫶 halfsword

[hardy pivot]

i punched a guy and his head hit the wood and splatterd everywhere

mabye i should help him

hes fine

[narrow thicket]

When Half Sword releases, how much will it cost?

[north dawn]

7 dollars

Halfsword is nice, not expensive

[narrow thicket]

damn thats good, and when?

[fast kindle]

25 or 30

[narrow thicket]

now i dont know who to believe

[fast kindle]

[north dawn]

Paladin with the oath of communication

[boreal path]

theoretically you can use the pollax and the longsword in each hand but it's slower than just using one or the other, lets you keep them both at the ready though which could be handy

[fast kindle]

Have more skill or get fucked

[paper notch]

duh, but what else

close the distance and occupy their weapon with yours

[oblique spade]

?

[honest thorn]

Don't mind them

That said, whenever people Kramer in here to ask dumb questions instead of reading the FAQ, we should all gaslight them into thinking that there's a joust mode that's almost done and we're all in the closed beta for it

Will swearing allegiance to the extermination of all architects give me a 10% research speed for studying to be an engineer?

I have seen what the Helldivers can do when they don’t get something they made up in their minds. It’s a bad idea

[hidden pendant]

You're just jealous you aren't in the beta for joust mode, it's real cool (tho the horses are really prone to spontaneously breaking their legs, but that's arguably realistic)

[boreal path]

no
