cleaner run @lime perch
Yeah I get what you've been saying, thanks man. Also, stabbing with a knife is far more satisfactory than any other bladed weapon (imo)
because the stabs actually work
truuuuuu
willy has noodle arms and cant hold a 1h sword straight
but i guess the leverages make it easy for him to hold the knife
the knife is small enough it usually doesnt slide off
sometimes one stab doesn't do it
or wobble around
it's primarily more about just getting in close
once you're past stabbing distance it's legit over
I stabbed a guy straight in his sternum, he screamed like a pig and then just instantly went back to normal. Proper chad
literally you can drop the knife and beat his face into a pulp the moment you're in range
it's easier to do this with the other weapons anyways, fighting any polearm in the game without one of your own or armor is a pita
Awkward stab
try that in the gauntlet
i swear the AI there is somehow smarter
they just track you with the pitchfork and walk forward
they do the same here i just cut out the 1 whole minute of me avoiding all the stabs
any graze and the blade just teleports inside you
annoying as hell
kicks are overpowered
Hardly worth the effort..
should i be unlocked camera for max skill expression??
bro the axe is so over powered
Imo, the sickle is slept on
OP
militia is the biggest bullshit tier imo
I have never felt as assaulted in half sword as when I was in millitia
Magic trick
some more of that ol skoole clueless longsword gameplay
haven't clipped much of that in a while so i figured it's time for a return to form
I made him hit the yamcha pose at the end lol
That lil twirl at the at the end
lil tougher sheathed lol
it doesnt work with anything floppy very well
my nvidia capture isnt working for some fuckin reason
use steam recording
good call
devs i beggeth thee, add the axe man helmet for tier 3
in the abyss
like... how come he can have it!! but we cant!!!!
Because he's awesome
soooo for good player, camera locked? or unlocked?
do what you want
i want to get better
just play with lock on then
i play with 100% lock on
yeet
This is an un-monetized fight analysis of what high skilled Poleaxe combat looks like.
There's also a link I've pinned in my comments that will lead you to an unlisted video playlist I'm making that will slowly showcase all of the poleaxes tech I've made/learned over the span of playing HalfSword.
Hope you enjoy!

I also highly recommend looking into OVRDTH and SMUG on youtube, they are very skilled with swords.
but in terms of polearms, it's just me right now.
28 seconds of parry practice
skill
its been a hot minute... have there been any major updates besides model showcases?
I grinded the demo too hard, I am burnt out of this game ngl
I am excited for new content updates tho
tbh
letting the guys bleed out to hear the full pain audios is pretty neat
idk who got kicked in the nuts to make those noises but they sound so real
gud job
yeah, long death animations are a great thing in gaming, I wish more games did that
even the longest deaths I've seen in other games last maybe 10 seconds max
which is kind of a shame
🔪
props to him
he makes a very convincing "german man gettiing stabbed in the neck" sound
holy shit is that the one and only dip??
Nice
i love hasso no gamae so much it sucks sm irl but it's fun as hell here
Is it possible to break a neck during fist play?
theoretically yes
because I've been trying since yesterday to just break the neck with my hands, but I can't
How do you manage to be so precise?
lots of practice
i am normally better but im kinda rusty rn, been a while since i played this game
I'm struggling, my fights are nothing compared to yours, even though I've been playing since the first demo
try to stay just out of range of your opponent as much as you can, there is a little golden zone where he will still swing at you yet will not be able to hit you, allowing you to quickly move it, deliver a clean cut while he is open and then step out before he can react, try to pay attention to the way that he moves, for instance if he raises his sword up to the left that means he is about to swing from there, makes it much easier to parry. there are a lot of subtleties to it but once you get them it becomes much easier to read how the fight is going and what you can and cannot get away with, also knowing some useful guards is helpful, i suggest using the ones in this post https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3437298388 by SamOfSaturn
another thing you can do is try to leave yourself open to attacks, this will bait willie into rushing you, at which point you simply step to the side and deliver a cut to his upper torso
ow
What would you even do against this lol
there's a reason why that weapon is the best weapon to use in the game for free wins outside of plancon
if you want the second half of your gauntlet run cheesed use that
It's so silly lol
if you want to beat the ultimate challenge with ease you better hope you can kill the guy with that
it's the end all solution
it's a gulliotine on a stick
What do you think the most underappreciated weapon is>
I have mine.
Any of the spiky maces, specifically the extra spiky one handed and two handed.
They not only do high blunt damage, but even if you don't swing hard enough and whiff on a helmet, it cuts their neck, arm, etc.
HOLY SHIT I CURBSTOMPED HIM WITH A WEAPON ONTO HIS WEAPON
I don't know how but the commoner greatsword boss ALWAYS kicks my ass
i miss clueless 💔
i have ways to beat him easily almost every time
I often find I do better with the longer slimmer longswords rather than like a falchion buckler combo
its almost like they're still here with us
but even the slightest touch of his blade immediately renders me a puddle of goop
so it's always VERY risky
i have a way you can dodge him all the time
greatsword is cool
i'll send you a set of videos and i want you to tell me what they all have in common
@deep citrus this is how you beat commoner boss
the moment you see them swing or wind up for a swing
immediately back away and wait for your chance
if they hit a swing that you know or at least have a feeling that they'll take a while to recover from, immediately capitalize
Only way I've been able to kill him is to goad him into an overhead, catch it with halfsword, and then turn to thrust the tip of my longsword into his torso
okay
It's a footwork skill issue for me then
I rely too heavily on trying to dig in my heels
hold shift and alternate between W and S
cool okay
i only dig into my heels when i want to style on people
thank you : D
more dagger gameplay because it's lowkey fun
highest I've managed so far is veteran
if you just want to beat the game take the spiky spear
that thing will beat everything and everyone into a pulp if you swing at them enough times
honestly yeah that thing is insanely good
also the one boss who also has one will rip you a new ass if you don't have it (and arten't quite as good like me-)
it's straightforward to counter him with another polearm if you practice ample timing and footwork
yeah the uhh Voulge is pretty good for him
I think yo ucan get it at that tier?
i don't think you get it at militia but the tier above probably
or veteran
pitchfork hard carries all the way to veteran lowkey
tbh any of the spears are VERY good
then from veteran use voulge or plancon and murder everything
very small learning curve and end fights very fast while allowing super passive play
I love the boar spear
historically accurate polearm moment
AS INTENDED 🔥
The goal of this guide is to pass down what knowledge I have gained thus far in Half Sword so we can enjoy the game at all levels of play. If you're looking to speed through The Gauntlet, then I hope this guide helps you in your journey.
It should be noted that you do not have to play on your tier, you may play lower tiers in higher tiers. This...
I think I'm gonna mess with mods just so I don't need to spam Randomize everytime I wanna try a loadout
hi
i found a bug
when i win but i die at the same time im naked for the next fight
man i got my blood and gore at gruesome and still lost my leg to a light tap
starting to think that bar is % chance rather than threshold
Perhaps gruesome is 50/50, whereas the two extreme sides could be 25/75 chance
Any tips for beating the Great sword boss? Always messes me up
Feels like rng beating him lmao
I don't think I've ever beaten him without using the longsword
I just wait for him to swing a couple times then rush him and hope for the besr
Works 50/50
Sometimes he just stares at me while i rush him, sometimes he gently caresses me with the sword and instakills me
Fair I generally either swing blindly and hope to cut his hands or try half sword for control but neither works well
Practice
hot
i mean
not
a bug
not a bug
bruh
learning to parry is easy
am i a psychopath for decapitating every willie in half sword while they are begging for mercy?
pro tip: hit alt and thrust your weapon all the way out. while still holding mouse 1, let go of alt and drag your weapon above your head. then hit alt at an even pace
yes
pro tip for fist fights
headlock
that one cutscene in mingle squid game:
just decapitated one
Way I do it can be seen here
-
Put your sword in to the "block position" on the opposite side of the enemies attack
-
When enemy attacks, its your time counter attack his weapon
-
When your weapons clashes, change directon on to him
Will hellish quart scratch the itch half sword created?
Not so sure, Järn was spelled "jern" back in the day
Fair enough
how do i download half sword is all black when i dowload it on steam pls i need help i only get the first demo
how do i get the playtest please
oww thats sad i cant get it now?? huhuh i really wanna play it so bad
the demo yes
hamster !
tasty
i mean the playtest because the demo is all black and the enemies are all npc
You got the outdated version in that case
how do i get it?
owww wait let me download it
the enemies are always npcs
there's no players
kinda wish i could increase the damage that blunt attacks can deal they feel so satisfying but i also dont want a small ass cut to just kill or make them give up
I just saw on this kids Laptop he has Half Sword xddd, can be seen very clearly on the end
, I don't thinks thats normal for a kid his age
XD, I play it on DX11 even though i got 2.5k PC
MSI RTX 5070TI VENTUS 3X OC
AMD RYZEN 7 9800X3D
32GB DDR5 6000MT/s
But yeah, completely understandable
Its still just a Demo*
i mean the game isn't optimized because they don't really care about that part at the moment
i downloaded the demo how do i update it?
enter the demo
if its version 0.5 ur good
shud show up in the pause menu when ur in match
thats odd ur supposed to have one. u mean the scythe guy?
the guy with a huge sickle
i just have fists
after you beat a tier and are sent back to the menu, you can equip the armour/weapons of the next tier by clicking the glowing tier icons on the right
either a bug or ur still picking the beggar tier. scroobert beat me to it lol
am I the only one who has no idea how to play
use peasant classs
yoyo
I've got 30 hours and I am still quite clueless
I was genuinely shocked at how much faster my game ran after using dx12 for a while
I mean it ran better on dx11
Dx12 enables lumen lighting
Or something along the lines of that, thus making the game struggle a bit
Yurp
Jackpot.
first person
ugh i keep getting fatal error in the last ultimate challenge
do you have blood on
just a little, like 1/5th the slider
try turning it fully off
Yeah its gotta be all the way off but should fix right up. Drop graphics down to low if its still giving you trouble
man, give up, your arm is gone, you will not win this fight. just let me leave and press that G
okay you can have your hand back, just give up pls.
oh god commoner champion tanked 3 abdomen slices and groin thrust and then sliced me in half with one hit....
should have aimed for hands
disarming is the most reliable
those 3 slices could've gone to his right arm and made him either useless or straight decapitated and screeching
anyone know if in the far future a multiplayer is in planning ?
imagine you get taken out by a lucky hit leaving you knocked out hurt on the floor and they start dancing on you before taking you out
or let the timer get you
for some reason i had half sword playtest downloaded on my steam libary its gone now and i cant download it back any help?
post release yeah
are there way to adjust 3rd person camera tilt a little bit?
with lock on i mean
or throw you over the fence
my least favorite part of the game is when is cream for 50 minuets straight at an extremely hiugh volume for losing a limb
cus it just gets old very easily, and its a very annoying sound to cosntantly hear, to me it is atleast.
yeah its really unreasonable that someone would scream after getting their leg brutalised by an axe
my point is that i have my volume super low
what else are they supposed to do tho ?
and the screaming is still FAR TOO LOUD
thats not a good argument against it
you can turn sfx sounds lower in settings no?
i have, and i already have it very low
I ALREADY TURNED IT DOWN A BUNCH
AND ITS STILL WAY TOO LOUD
AND CONSTANT
can you send screenshots
of both pc volume and game volume
and then my pc volume is 8 and also i have a thing on my headset that can be used to lower the volume
and the screaming just seems very repetative to me
take a 1/4 of the scream volume
except then i cant hear any other voices
cus theyre way too low
maybe requesting a slider for screams only could be possible
even if its "realistic" its still annoying to have your character scream for 40 minuets at 100 decibels right into your ears at low volume while you try to kick your enemy to still win
and it makes even less sense for your character to scream if you have the damage set to the minimum
because then theoretically it shouldnt "hurt that much"
if your limb is cut off or broken it will hurt
it nots about hurt
its about how much kicks and fists do damage to you
weapon damage afaik is still the same
i set both to 0 and 100
not accurate
still get decapitated either way
i doubt that id scream for 60 minuets straight if it happened tho
go ahead
try
break your femur
especially if i assume that adrenaline would kick in to make the pain less noticible
adrenaline wears off
there shud be more scream sounds
yes that is a solution
the way it is now its super loud, and its super repetative
it feels
tho if u get delimbed its better to just surremder
the volume should also be lower for the screams
never
well then its on you for continuing to fight a lost fight
except ive won before
ud get the opposite effect of ppl thinking it aint loud enough. ig it shud just be better modulated(?) in the optios
with less limbs
it shouldnt be a loud sound
but it should sound loud
but rn its just loud it seems
its an accessabillity option thing rly
ITS WAY LOUDER THAN ANY OTHER VOICE SOUND IN THE GAME it seems
well yes its a scream
like ive seen ppl ahve the same complaint about the bone crunching sound
thats not a good argument for it being loud
something can not be loud and sound loud
personally ive never experienced it feeling louder than anything else so it might just be some weird bug
which games do many times
for some bones its louder than its supposed to be
to avoid hearing damage
like hand for an example
but a femur breaking is loud
it aint THAT loud
have you played ready or not ? and the weapons not using suppressor ?
IF YOU HAD AN EXPLOSION GOING OFF RIGTH NEXT TO YOUR EAR THEN IT WOULD
thats much louder than any noise in this game
we dont have cannons
u know what rly loud? anything in fromsoft titles
istg that shit blows my eardrums
IM TALKING ABOUT IN AN FPS
DO YOU KNOW WHAT FPS STANDS FOR?
FIRST PERSON SHOOTER
do you mean first person shooter?
Frames Per Second?
exactly hear the frames
yes i played many
yes
and youre deaf then?
ready or not almost all cods mw and bo titles
no because soldiers wear hearing protection
because if you want "realistic sound design" then you should be deaf
logically you shoudl 100% be deaf by now
due to bombs
if you look at the MW models they have ear protection
and gun shots
which protects you if you are hit directly in the face with a rocket?
i feel like weve strayed from the main topic which is half sword screams
yeah
all im saying is for realism sound volumes arent that important
for you maybe
so they could easily just make the scream not be extremely loud
for others its important
while still having it sound as if its loud
something can sound loud even if it isnt
which is what alot of games do
and how do you plan on them doing it
so why cant half sword jsut do the same with the scream?
record a loud sound, and then turn down the volume.
probably because the source comes from one direction
and not multiple
wdym by that?
lets say the object that makes a sound is to your right
you hear it from the right
if its all around you it seems loud
all im saying is that the constant screaming is extremely annoying whenever you lose a hand and that it would make the game experience bettwer if it wasnt so.
but it isnt because its around you
honestly i think it might be bugged for you
for me the music and taunts are louder than the sccreams on default settings
can you record something and show us how loud it is
yeah
and the pleading for mercy
for me the screams are id say 5db louder
but its not bothering to me
tho thats enemy screams i need to get myself delimbed see if its any louder when its coming from me
ill try to do that, but every time i hear the screaming for more than 5-10 seconds it makes me want to imidiatly close the game
ît is
id say 10-15db louder
if in first person its even louder
ye its slightly louder. still not eardrum shattering levels tho
yeah
decibels is a non linear scale i believe
tell me a different measurement of sound then
fine, i wont tell you any other science facts ever again since you seem to hate them
you confuse my science facts for criticism
decibels are logarithmic but i wouldnt know how to tell the difference between 1 sound or the other without measuring
the issue is simply that the screaming is way too annoying
the base to me would be the normal talking sound
be brave. record the earrape
do it for science
Thank you, yes, science is dumb!!!
flat earth
Does anyone know how i can download the enchancher for half sword?
bad science is still science
nvm, i found it
sime believe that easter island is fake
we worship the sun and throw rocks at rodents to hunt
Owls are drones
hey guys, when i try and download the half sword enchancer it says it is a dangerous file? How do i fix that?
yes hello i am government, i know island is fake because of thag
Allow an exception in your antivirus. It’s a false flag
how do i do that?
Through the power of Google
Ok
i made an exe file once, while using c++, trying to make a game, and it also got flaged as a virus
ye i can see how annoying it can get
see, super loud, and if youve heard the screaming sound for 30 minuets before its already gotten very old.
yeah, especially when you try to win for like 20 minuets and ITS JSUT A CONSTANT SOUND THAT NEVER STOPS
it could also jsut be me that finds it annoying.
anything more than 5 minutes is crazy
i usually just let myself die or give up if it exceeds 5 minutes
Lmao this had me cracking up
like if my arms/legs are so cooked i just give up
what is the keybind to open the mod menu thing?
then what about this?
why give up when you can clearly still win?
The fighting stump
Yo Moai
What is the keybind to open the menu when i close it?
if it gets to the point of me giving up it's so bad i would rather not waste time trying to win
my fights end in 1-2 minutes at the higher end and <30 seconds if i aim to win
my parry practice sessions go on indefinitely until i either get chopped in half or decide the opening is too good to let go
hey clueless. What is the keybind to open the menu when i close it?
which one
aight lemme tes it rq
the trainer menu gets bugged a lot of the time so you might have to press it more than once
Ok
found the keybind 🙂
what are you trying to grab
Do you hold anything else when you press q?
On your keyboard that is
nope
its like
i press it
and it does absolutly nothing
So when you stand completely still, it does nothing?
yeah it does nothing
Whats your grahpics card wondering if its GPU driver related
We are currently experiencing a heat wave so it's 35 degrees celsius. I also believe it's caused by driver issues
I've got a 4070. It does it on chill days so I'm certain it's my fucking drivers
im running a 9070 AMD Radeon
Jesus

How does it feeling knowing you've paid extra for less? 
its prolly not gpu im running it fine on a 3050
It's more than likely cos I'm on dual monitor, discord, spotify and youtube whilst running this game on epic
With the prices it aint that bad to be fair Plus really dont wanna support Nvida anymore
i run like 60 fps on epic graphics
i got a i9 9900k
I'm on 150-200
i have 1 monitor and just the game running and it just faltal errors
9th gen is still solid. should be able to handle it
Basically just an i7-14700K
the problem is that temperatures are fucking up my gpu and cpu cuz its hot in my country
the fatal error stuff is mostly optimisation issues
you get the error on your clipboard when you crash
this game is still new, it needs optimization updates
ok well it wont even launch for me i got to menu one time 😂
Optimization should be their first priority. Othewise, you'll need a 3060 minimum to run this game normally
even rtx 5090 wont run this game smoothly on cinematic graphics
Cinematic is just ridicilous
so yea this game needs some optimizations
cinematic will lag on any device
no matter what it is
Even on a $2000 pc, cinematic struggles
it could be a nasa pc but it will still lag
how do i reset the games config file
cinematic is just for photo mode
yeah
How do you pull up the willie tutorials
game is not meant to be played on cinematic
devs have said optimization will be done later down the line
i think they are working on new items and blood physics now?
they need to optimize that blood thingy too
Blood and optimization should be number 1
it lags
i know they're remaking blood for early access
yall remember the first launch?
when we could play on cinematic
imagine if they added organs and stuff
Guts used to be a thing
shud be in local appdata
yup
in the early game it was
but they removed it
To be honest, the map is way too detailed. I think the majority of the playerbase focuses on the enemy rather than the map.
yeah it is pretty detailed
hope they add more maps soon
like inside a castle or something
Detailed as in, the map draws unnecessary power from your GPU
thats also true
the fences have detailed textures
I actually don't give a shit if I can see detailed pebbles on the ground when I get sliced in half
I turned LOD distance way down and it helped a ton
Well, I did a bunch of tweaks and gained like 15 frames
bro somebody tell me why do i have an enemy fighting me even though he is sliced in half
bros just kicking me
are both halves moving
yes
bugged
but mostly lower
coz its kicking me
should i just slice his head off
nah you know what
im atomizing him
did you cut it here
yes
yea
Buckler the best
so i should cut in upper abdomen if i plan to cleave someone in half?
oh alr
Yeah just wherever makes you happy. Think body density is the same throughout the torso
alr
Not the overhead flourish please I can only get so hard 
that disarm and combo fucking slapped holy shit
This shit felt so messed up yall
that crunch didnt feel like it was part of the game lmao
left hand pretty sure
why did my halfsword reset?
I feel like Militus is the only mod that talks in here lol
i was at the final challenge now im again beggar
send prtscr of your game
print screen
hi reclaimer
should've had his shield up instead of under his chin, acted like a guide
you did a murder :(
where
ik but where should i send it im lost rn sorry
Oh shoot you're not lvl 3, hmm. So you're not at all able to go back to the top rank?
i am at beggar again but i was at the final challenge
send it in game footage channel
spamming the same move 😄
send it
i did not reinstall the game or played with the game files or something like that
https://i.guns.lol/elkJk.jpg say hi to commoner boss
dunno guess its gone, you should be able to download a gauntlet sav file from someone who had already done it, or hit that grind again 😄
just cheat ur way to final challenge with hs enhancer
RAT
Im at work but fire clips and hope the day treats ya well
Moai too but with all the clip spam lately hes being doing other stuff.
Chat has generally felt dead the past couple weeks
I feel like we bring life to the party bro
Tends to slow down after some time between updates. Once early access comes activity will pick up again
i recall talking to you like once but maybe im mixing you up with another mod, i'm just kinda some guy really
are you sure?
Haha im just playin, ive seen you for sure
i figured
too hard the hit
faithful recreation
im not sure if my sticker can even be recreated, probably can
moment of impact
guys
you know how when you get a paper cut between your fingers
and it hurts a lot
right?
well imagine this
why is he not surrendering
is it me or has the game felt different for the past few weeks? swinging my weapon (esp swords) feels really off
did an update get pushed or something?
damn thats sick
im making bro look like springtrap by the time this fight ends
its just getting worse
my guy has seen better days too, he got his arm sneakily chopped off in an exchange really cleanly
is very funny breaking his legs and ending him with a clean hit in the back of the head
I think last night I got a clip where I turned a dude into a McDonald’s chicken nugget
Went for a swing on the arm took it off went for the leg and just broke em down
I have to say this game is such a great stress reliever
i won but as a final fuck you my enemy did this black magic on me
i managed to fix it by turning body tonus to yes
i hope they make willie lose teeth too and stuff like that in the coming updates
i wanna punch a willie so hard his teeth fly out
Do you somehow get notifs when your name is said or do you just check the channel regularly lol i feel like I always summon you whenever I mention it
it's actually a pretty decent method to fight polearms with a longsword
I just check now and then, and happen to see 
its actually cannon that HS updates everytime I get extremely good at it
chat am i the only one who switches to a sidearm whenever my enemy does? like if i disarm their sword and they pull out a mace i'll pull out my blunt sidearm
feels honorable that way
is every few people always like taller than you
western duel azz fighting style
i like to throw their weapons back towards them too
turned "no pain" off for a sec
this fight ended in 1 mutual hit
Whats the technique for once you start fighting completely armored AI. I have been getting far in the abyss and it becomes impossible to kill anyone.
lol the lil sword twirl
lost my arm again
"whats the difference between toilet paper and a curtain" lookin ass
knighted by the mace
i tried other times with lock on off but its a lot easier with it on
worlds smallest blade bind and parry?
another warrior knighted
Too crisp
i luv hs :D
the longer the polearm the easier it is to hit the move
are there some sources you can download old ones from ?
when willie is able to learn our moves we are FRIED
i dont know
Iam searching and searching on how to get the playtest and it all says go to the steam page.
I don't see where I can request it at all
They closed the playtest
Its no longer available, just the demo
So how do I get past the first part in the game and go to the sand pit ?
The gore selection screen?
download demo and press play demo
after gore selection screen
downlaod the tech demo ?
yes
Okay Ive done that and pick the highest gore and only get the samething
send a screenshot of your screen
EYE don't think you're ready....
When you select the gore it puts you to the main menu
Lol
Yeah enhancer slmomo is really clean and can make some shots rlly cinematic
lantern is the most slept on weapon
its enlightening really
This fight was insane lol
hospital
you cant regrow your legs but you can kinda still move around and whatnot if you have the half sword enhancer mod and no pain on
how do i get mods?
i stabbed this guy like.. 7 times in the head.. i think it was 7 times
Anyone elses pc sound like a jet engine when playing this game
ue5 moment
Good'ole BONK
This is the first edited clip I've seen of you messing around with a modded weapon that's not just a gold reskin. Sick.
my lighter was on my keyboard mb
I'm sure you know this technique but in case you didn't....you can hook a polearm behind their head over their right shoulder and then swing it towards yourself to break their neck. Took a couple tries to force it but it is great for clinches.
Well, not a neck break, but a throat break really.
It's very cool, unfortunately I cannot do it since I play at very low damage to player and NPC
Yeah I can see how that wouldn't work with low damage.
In saying that, spine drags are a good substitute

It does make sense you'd play at low damage though. Have you tried playing at high damage but using halfsword enhancer and enabling enemy infinite consciousness?
It will let you get multiple strikes in without them getting knocked out.
I spawn in a no-brain NPC and make him wear armour and no pain/infinite consciousness to practise with
Also I'm not understanding what a spine drag is, it seems like you shoved the spike in his forehead.
Well...face.
You lift the Poleaxe behind his head and pull in with a halfsword, dragging his spine with it
I like high damage so I can do stupid brutal hits.
Oh this! Yes I like this a lot. Helps if I miss a strike and I get it on a backswing.
I might play on high damage, I haven't in a long time
I have to force myself to stop doing this all the time when I'm on high damage haha
Huh, just crashed for no reason... or at least it didn't say.
The momentum of them running towards you combined with your own is just ridiculous.
bro
He ran into a poleaxe at sprint.
why does my character reach out when trying to grab and just has his arm raised there like a fucking idiot while he gets his skull mushed in by a candle holder
reaching for something in reach and failing to do so is wild bro
You just can't see it
Most crashes are related to the blood. You can try turning it down to reduce crashes but turning it off entirely would be the best option
Damn bro got reprogrammed.
Yea, it was just a fatal error when I was throwing a bleeding body...
The effort that goes into: free cam > get into position and find the angle > slow mo and pause/unpause at the same time
The effort man its commendable. Makes for fire content
Use your fookin arm movement buttons and line it up
the
hear me out..
someone..
gotta figure out how to mod hide and seek from squid game into half sword
Do i have to be level 3 to enter memes and stuff

What kind of shitty measurement system is that???
can someone help me get the runescape graphics idk how to config stuff
idk man making your game on the lowest graphic preset kinda gives it that look already
Shhh they've done the math
It’s definitely math, it’s just awful
Bro really couldn’t say two hours
yeah but my pc is ahh so even this is hard on it but i saw a guy on the reddit with like certain settings and stuff that he was messing with through the engi.i file or sum
Uhm i have a picture of Willies bare asss
If you wanna mess around with the game user settings than you'll need to go through %appdata%, local, halfswordue5, config, gameuser settings
at this point im pretty sure everyone does
OH! is this a common glitch
yea
soemone show me a picture of poleaxe to see if im right
its not a glitch
yes it's a feature
😦
anyways i was right, awesome thansk
You get 3-6 xp for one message every 60 seconds. Based on the amount of xp you need to get to level 2, it’s about 1 and a half-2 hours of chatting. It’s literally just basic math.
A half 2 hours??????
Yes..? It’s one message every 60 seconds so you don’t sit here spamming
So one hour????
Bruh
One and half-two hours
It’s okay, it’s a stupid language

we woyld all be better off speaking the one language thats english but not but its still english so it is]
English just has so many stupid rules to it
trur
Im lucky I learned it when I was younger so it was easier lol
And they are broken all the fucking time
Dark
Theres a great comedy bit from a finnish comedian Ismo, about the English language, mainly the word Ass and how many different ways it can be used and it just explains the English language so good lol
Fuck fucking fucking fucked fucking fucks fucking fuck
This is a valid sentence by the way
It’s.
And this is a technically correct response as it’s is just it is. Language is interesting lol
It’s worse than buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo
I’ve vaguely heard of that
Buffalo (from) buffalo, (that) buffalo (from) buffalo buffalo (annoy), buffalo (annoy) buffalo (from) buffalo
Because a buffalo is an animal, a place, and a verb meaning to annoy
hey i just post a clip in the game footage can someone tell me if it's a bug ?
He saw your drip and decided he wanted it lmao
But yeah I think that’s a bug
If I have to say "and a half" I always just do .5
1.5-2 hours
That makes more sense
I was reading it as 1 and half of 2 hours
Doesn't roll off the tongue nice but, we're all reading im our heads
why'd he take so long </3
really wish you could snap someones neck with your hands
that would be very fun in spoilance

Bro the commoner boss needs to be tweaked
The amount of times my run has been ended AFTER i kill him because of his sword is crazy
He always manages to cut my hand off while flailing around
ill put graphics to max wish me luck on my cpu not crashing my shit
there was a clip of someone chokeholding a guy and snapping his neck
you can
if you yank it and it kinda gets bugged in a chokehold it will break and if you have player to npc damage on full

Amd radeon graphics
It appears to me that it is from 512 mb xd
Necesitas un mínimo de 2 GB de memoria de vídeo
But I always played a half sword
I have 28 hours Just yesterday I got that error.
:c
maybe do -dx11 in launch options on steam
or -dx12
Do dx10 fr
I think I have something wrong with DX12 because I was adjusting the graphics and maybe the cursor went missing.
But how do I change it?
if my characters hand is taken clean off will he ever like come to his senses and be able to pick up weapons again?
or is he trapped in the screamloop for all eternity
Ve a Steam, ve al juego en tu biblioteca, haz clic en la opción con el botón derecho, haz clic en Propiedades y luego escribe opciones de lanzamiento -dx11
no
A ver deja pruebo eso
he will be in pain until you give up or meet your demise
no no
press g
youll just have to get some xp back
ah good luck man
I've kicked the abyss b oss to death before but it was scythe boss NOT spikey stick boss
I have a feeling trying to kick him to death is just gonna get me turned into mince
yeah with scythe its best getting a weapon for less than arm range
long range will get you killed
honestly if I get a candellabra or a pitchfork I can usually do well
because pitchfork I just thrust at him from a little outside his range until it hits a good spot
Mi laptop está haciendo ruido

half sword chat be like
because you did
because you did
well well well..
I don't know how common knowledge this is but I found turning off mouse acceleration (or pointer precision in windows settings) really made my gameplay better. It felt way more precise to swing weapons, I found attacking the head or any other part of the body much easier. I actually felt a flow when using my weapons.
quite common knowledge in games
allows consistent mouse movement
but outside of people who plays games it's like black magic
alright dude. I always turn off mouse acceleration in games but I didn't know that its enabled by default on windows. its also called pointer precision (which makes no sense, it makes your inputs less precise). its something very easy to miss, its hidden in other menus in the settings.
i stg these polearm users have been blessed with a protection charm from the gods
