Is multiplayer gonna get out one day?
yeah just not any time soon
an accurate depiction of how difficult and challenging it is to use a polearm
this year or nah?
definitely not this year

early access
this is so dumb, why did i sit down and spend 3 mins editing this
real
ty
hm?
I did the thingy, the anime thingy, cutem then wait till they react
sometimes you need three
I agreeee
technically thats a repost but i still thing thats a hella good kill
kingm
throwing is fun
look at this silly person
has the game gotten any updates
after the "getting up quicker" update? no
ok
Am I missing something that one-handing spears (with shield) is crazy unstable?
how u get this sword?
somehow cut off both of willy's hands
Multiplayer tomorrow?
have i mastered the half sword now?
willy's head got stuck on my sword somehow
someone make a batman outfit mod please
me: tries to pick up a weapon
Willy: decides to crouch as the enemy slices him in half
Yall i had to download some update
Or idk
It says i have to download smth
Is there anything new or nothing?
im at man at arms
shld i use the man at arms spear or keep using the militia spike
spike if u want easy mode
cool !
how do u send ts without nitro
This is one way of trading kills i guess.
yoyo
I wonder if there’d ever be multiplayer for this game
headsman's execution
also i somehow perfectly cut off some part of willy's face
i was playing brave stand, but the willies started killing eachother
how do yall record these clips
happens when you have been playing for a while in one session, happens to me too
just happaned again
who won?
i did
i won right?
im holding the camera
is there anything I can do to not lose progress?
some hidden setting?
complete the game maybe
hurrah!
when will they add dual wielding to the game? seems effective
you can click esc and then "go to menu" before you die, but when you dont have time to give up, to then just not die
it is added
as evidenced by you doing it in the picture
maybe they mean like
a loadout with two identical swords to start off with?
instead of having to kill someone for one first
i think it's better the way it is
we've been promised one near the end of the year, it'll also be when the game goes early access
i mean we already have dual wielding with daggers
which is as far as it goes historically
I bet at least one guy in all of history has tried to fight with two regular swords
mightve died but
there have been a lot of people'
you'll probably be able to load in like that in the final game
i hope they let you do dumb stuff like that but the AI gets good enough that it makes realistically impractical things digitally impractical as well
the AI right now doesnt know how to capitalize off of things like that
being able to build your own loadout for a fight would be fun
there are some accounts of people fighting with an axe in one hand and a sword in the other
actually one of them is about boucicaut
last time I tried that I think I stabbed my own neck while hugging my opponent?
How much hours do y’all got on half sword?
wait no, hammer and shortened lance
"..According to eyewitness Turkish accounts, the tireless Frenchman “ran madly up the hill where the Turks were stationed, wearing thirty kilos of armor, in temperatures exceeding 35°C, and cut a path through the Turkish hordes with his hammer and short lance, amidst a cloud of arrows” (Nicolle, 1999), slaughtering anyone who approached him, decapitating and crushing skulls with a single blow.."
at least 0.2
oh
at most 0.4
~900 when demo and playtest are combined
I got like 36.5 but with the itch io demo it’s at least 40-43
The 36.5 is combined with the play test
thirty kilos of full plate?
that's crazy
for some reason I always assumed celcius was a more recent thing
yeah it is
I once cut off the ai’s entire face
if i'm not wrong, that's a 18th century invention
i assume it's just a guess at how hot it was during the time
that's about the amount that a modern soldier carries with them, but it's better distributed across the body so it feels lighter
exactly
but full plate may even be lighter than what a modern soldier carries
generally it's 60 pounds or heavier
I was trying to come up with an excuse to defend myself, then I realised anything I could come up with would make me seem dumber than if I just admitted that I didn’t see the year and assumed this was happening in the 1600 somethings
i think that's jousting armor at that point
this was late 14th century iirc
no
jousting gear was nearing 100
Then what’s with the 1999 date
You should add something that makes the character get more exhausted based on the weight of the armor, and weapon. Yk so when you run around with sum heavy armor you’re slower, and get exhausted quickly
isn't that already a thing?
I thought they already had that, must be placebo
I think it’s only with the weapons
i can't do two slices without getting tired in full armor
the fight happened in the late 14th century, the source of that exact writing and the 35 celsius figure was written in 1999
that is already a thing
Oh
it's so bad that it's better to just
throw away all your weapons at the start
and only keep the longsword
How did the writer know what happened, I assumed what I was reading was an eye-witness account that was recorded somewhere
I only noticed it with heavy weapons
I am noticing that I make too many assumptions when reading stuff
they should tweak Baron's weight just so you can push him and make him fall over
because he's wearing full gold
it's a bit convoluted but the quote i posted:
it is an academic publication that quotes Nicolle's restatement of eyewitness turkish writings
that cannot be comfortable
it's a gold finish
it's not made of gold
not really
I can’t wait to see people doing that spin kick thing in multiplayer half sword
oh no
multiplayer is not a guarantee
Well, it might not happen, but the chances are never 0
the chances are close enough to 0 that it's unwise to talk about your hopes as if it is nearing a certainty
Wait why won’t it happen?
for example this is a bit later period but this is only 62 pounds and is for a large man + has even more plates
I thought that little wheel thing on the back of the foot was exclusively for cowboys for some reason
but i see some mail in there
spurs, used all the way back in ancient times like first century BC
are there any cheatcodes to experiment with? like inf stamina etc.
Nay
there's a mod like that
what of it
but sliders are soft cheat codes I guess since you can mess around with them
could you send me the dets
i see that adding like 5 kilos to the total weight
as it's probably a shirt
it's braies
it's just maille undies
and it's accounted for in the total 62 pounds
maille shirts were done away with by most nations at the end of the first quarter of the fifteenth century and those that kept them largely retired them or reduced their weight by the 16th century
being france and italy
but the armor is english
plate voiders came in 💪
Y’all could work on a multiplayer prototype, like in free time. Nothing crazy, just a system that adds 2 willies in one game and then work off of that. After it’ll somewhat work, you can show it to the community and see what they say. If everything’s good then y’all can implement it slowly. From what I know and saw bout half sword and unreal i see that its not gonna be easy one bit, but I think that Theres 100% someone who would like to help with it.
that's called Half Sword Enhancer on Nexus
but even then that's probably not the main reason why they kinda faded out
Thanks
well that's something i didn't know
italian 1510
fairly light shirt
and the weight was considerably reduced by the lighter breastplate, way cut down pauldrons, short paunce and potentially-but-not-guaranteed-intentionally-omitted tassets
yk what's interesting with these late harnesses, is that they still aren't so drastically different to 1480-1490 Milanese harnesses
yerp
there's a huge jump to incorporating the more characteristically flemish style of cuirass and then from there everything gets lighter
is bro ok
no
Yall how does "Hellish Quart" compare to Halfsword?
Holy crap I thought it's McGonagall
extremely different in every aspect
one plays like melee tekken but with a little bit of physics and the other is entirely phyiscs based
Fun game. Hard to learn
Pretty different tho
Alot of sabres
i'd say hellish quart accomplishes a more realistic impression of historical martial arts but has significantly less freedom
Interesting
i cant wait for when half sword catches up on the AI and more fine-tuned movement
Hellish quart AI is insane with the feints they pull off
you can accomplish a decent amount of historical technique in half sword but it's always like 1/2 or 2/3 of the way there, like the "ehh i guess that works" of a technique most of the time
I wish you could do more footwork in halfsword
namely, intuitive edge alignment and general "smart flexibility" needs to be improved upon, characters are significantly less stiff than in the original demo but still not natural
Like I wanna lunge, etc. The movement of the sword is so freeing but a lot of historical techniques require certain footwork as well
lunging wasnt prevalent in 15th century fencing
there is some footwork that you cant pull off but i feel like you'd need some kind of slow motion posing or hotkey for things like that, like a gathering step
Doesn't mean it wasn't done. Especially with lower levels of armour, lunging would certainly be useful.
When you're clad in plate nothing really matters besides grappling
any sort of lunging that was done in real life in the 1400s (with any efficiency i mean) is fairly accomplishable in half sword
Which is another thing, I hope for some sort of grappling feature in the full game. Like, on the ground. Rn you can move your arms but can't actually move.
I'd disagree.
this is the closest to a lunge you can get to still be effective with a longsword
just a loping advance
you need to keep a certain threshold of front knee bending or else you're easy prey
is this a good technique
Yeah exactly that
yeah you can do that in half sword
it's not really pushing off your feet in any special way
just a big step
swingin that fuker like a nunchuk
bro just die
Pitchfork be Ballin bro
i hate when they dont die somehow
literally had an enemy cut in half and bro was still fighting me with his legs
Real
just the best weapon of its tier 🪙
wish there was a night mode or something
Tldr go to the nexusmods website and look up halfsword
no like i got em downloaded but
Real
Bug/crash help somewhere?
Show
Anyway it'd be cool if there was a button like there is for thrusting for more dynamic footwork
hold shift and step forward while stabbing
true i would like this
for gathering steps i think that would work very well
snail speed
Idk the mods I use have installers
The game folder id assume
Nah that would be the little sickle
That was clean
bro is not him
someone explain the white cube under the map
it's where all the dead willies get compacted between rounds
do i have a skill issue if i have 12 hours in half sword and haven't made it to the baron yet
naaah 12 hours aint much
i had like 30 hours of practice in free mode and i struggled with ult challenge
finally figured out a strategy for man at arms, use the 2 handed axe then switch back to veteran to use the bardiche against the grete champion
you can just stay out of his range and bully him with overheads until he gets knocked out
Half Sword is more about quality of practice than quantity of practice.
Time will help sure, but you can ask people for pointers on here and that will be far better than just going at it blind
bout 185 if u include playtest
damn
also true theres some nice guidance in youtube. ovrdth has good general advice imo
i'd say it's more of my reaction time rather than skill , i can aim nicely
and lots of luck
but when someone hits i can't time the parries right 😅
What happens if you surrender doing the ultimate challenge
do u have to restart all of knight
oh you dont get punished at all even if you die
damn
guys is there any way/mod to make the damage to both the NPC and the player almost nothing? because playing on the lowest damage is fun but still sometimes it's easy to kill/get killed the opponent and I want less damage so more fighting
It's a steam store related update
Nothing in game was effected from what I've seen
The playtest was discontinued when it was merged into the demo, do you mean if you can play older versions of the playtest?
From what information I've seen, that's probably the Early Access coming up later this year.
sorry it was the poll chat
Oh I c
when are the devs adding mustard
WE DID IT BOYS, WE'RE OUT OF THE SHIELD PLAGUE
Can the wrapped corpses be used as weapons?
PvP in halfsword would be peak
wonder where they would show up
#work-in-progress assassins creed reference
We can only hope
somebody know?
No i dont know 
#work-in-progress message
ZOMBIE UPDATE?!?
prolly just a steam thing
but it says playtest
Honestly this, cuz I think even considering a smaller scale, PVP half sword would be more casual-friendly than Chiv2
this goober trying to pick up the sword with his missing arm
yeouch
Know what exactly?
Imagine find this shi on abyss
im not sure what ur talking about
Scary
Guys, I can't really understand the new WIP, like, will the corpses have something like a body bag?
even in gore mode?
<@&1110473661942595656> Hello Demo testers!
We made another questioner for you all who participated in the steam playtest yesterday, and we have seen a lot of feedback from you all, we highly appreciate everything constructive that comes our way.
We condensed the rough bulk of most comments and feedback in to one form together with some other stuff we where wondering and would love to know more about from you guys! :))
Please follow this link:

Will by a prop maybe
it says this in poll chat
simple, you throw them at people
That was last year it’s 2025 now
that’s what I do with all MY corpses
Like the new WIP. Keep your beaten Willies wrapped up
What's your question?
put one over a doorway to prank my mom when she gets home
Always wrap your Willie!
I love wrapping my Willie’s
This Willie used witchcraft.
Can we hang him for this sorcery?
Burn him at the stake
Ill get the team working on the gallows immediately.
What about stakes for heretic Willies?
man i wanna know the instruments good malware used
May jesus christ give him eternal peace.
Double Blunt...
michael jackson
“Thriller”, but replace thriller with Willie
Dying and then winning the abyss puts me in a white screen and I'm forced to restart my PC. Known glitch?
Definitely Halfsword enhancer. Damage is set to low for both npc and character. Gore and blood is set to high. In the Enhancer, they have turned off pain for both of them so they don't die from pain anymore and thus keep fighting without their arms. ]
enjoy your trip
is it just me or blunt weapons in this game feel weak as fuck
yes and no and both and neither...
is that supposed to be you agreeing or disagreeing
thank you!
It's supposed to look like I'm agreeing at first then going SIKE
^This one is for agreeing in truth.
I think if anything blunt weapons are justifiably strong. One thing I think would be nice is to have blunted swords as an option, particularly for the heavy armor matches. Would be true to real life
Blunt sword mods just showcase how op they are lol
A tiny sliver of spring steel with the force of a baseball bat-like swing behind it is wild.
what is the shroud for in the most recent #work-in-progress post? just curious what it will be for in the release
BAP
It's a burial shroud, used for what it sounds like. Makes transport of deceased easier. Traps in any embalmed uh, fluid. Stuff like the one with the cross on it in #work-in-progress would generally have been only used on wealthier people. Probably in an environment where knights previously died? Maybe.
interesting, I was wondering if it was a way to show how many you’ve killed or something lol
srry I was aura farming at the end there
server is boosted
katana mod
Thank you
Make sure you’re utilizing your weapon’s sweet spots
only good spot to hit is the head
You can get lucky with a broken arm but often time it’s too much risk for too little
Watching Ovrdeath feels so crazy
It’s like a whole different level of control dexterity
How are you finding the balance on the feders after the latest update? I was happy with how they were when I updated it but I've been doing a lot of longsword stuff lately and I'm starting to think they're still a bit too heavy
#work-in-progress is that for disposing of corpses in between fights?
I love the new sword handling, they're not supposed to be easy to swing but once you get the right mouse movements down shits clean as hell.
They are definitely too heavy in comparison to modern feders, but I don't know if they're too heavy in comparison to historically accurate ones. I like the weight mostly because it makes them hit like a truck, and I can do movements like the one featured in the clip before my most recent one I put in here, where I whip the weapon around and it moves that way BECAUSE of the weight, while a lighter one would have a harder time with that whip.
He's talking about the mod he made, the blunt training swords.
ooooh my b
This one in specific would be hard to pull off with a lighter weapon.
Fiending for an update.
the copse
2 months now 
3 new assets are not an update.
I know these are incredibly hard to pull off lol, the quick snap hits back to back are insane.
Im pretty sure historical feders were around the same weight category, a lot of the surviving examples I looked at while making the mod were all below 1500g. I think I'm going to update it again with a lighter set of blades, I want them to handle as close as possible to actual longswords but it's a pain balancing them enough to make them actually do good blunt damage
what if we decide it to be sooner? 
Im not gonna make it
I’ll give you $5
sometimes swords make for great blunt weapons
Pay me
Im dying i need early early access for my make a wish
Youre right I have the version the devs don’t even have yet
No you can’t have it
So the game is stated to remain in that state until it's sold in early access in November/December?
No patches to see progress/bug fixes ?
Oct, Nov, Dec
Correct
Hey man, we're honestly lucky to get what we have.
Thanks.
I'll stop expecting an update every other week then 🙂
Half Sword is in the top 20 most wishlisted games on steam.
I am not complaining.
I'm forming reasonable expectations so I don't come here bitching every 3 days
That makes sense.
Good lad
looney tunes-ass death.
I try!
Remember, it's a looney tunes-ass death.
Not looney tunes ass death.
I guess since he did die, his ass did too
I already have above 200 hours on the demo.
I honestly can't wait for the full game.
I was just hoping for multiplayer to be turned on in a relatively close future.
But that wasn't an ass death.
Multiplayer is being looked into, but I wouldn't expect anything to do with it until the actual full release years down the line.
You're probably waiting 2 years for official if it ever gets put in.
And that's speculation.
that woiuld be awesome
I can see the goofy fights me and my buddies would get into.
Even as local steam co-op thingy
would it be worth it for them to try and add vr support
I would bet after early access release, someone will make a multiplayer mod that's a lil jank but works.
I'm baffled there's even mods now.
I'm just highly suspicious because of how early the game is, and how new weapons aren't necessarily balanced or have proper hitboxes and all for this games complex system.
raganiffy
Oh the weapon mods aren't actual new weapons
It's a little hard to explain
They're basically modifying current weapons.
I'm semi technical, you can try me.
awesome sauce game
lots of passion
Stretching and morphing geometry, and with that, having to do very jank things within the geometry to make the weapon balanced but look normal from the outside.
One weapon, another weapon, new weapon.
Yeah, I would have hoped for entire new assets instead with their own hitbox, this will likely lead to a weapon slicing when it shouldn't or things like that.
has anyone beat the ultimate challenge?
Many people
Yes plenty of people
shit hard asf
Ultimate challenge is quite literal 
how long did it take yall
Is the final square of the "tower" actually grayed out and unlocked at the end?
You mean the tiers?
You unlock the top one when you beat the gauntlet and the baron
its true, idk what the fuck this weapon was but I like what it is now
I haven’t played with my Willie in a while. Might have to do it after work today
For use in free play
Yeah the tier tower.
Their's one at the top that seems grayed out, but was never sure we could actually unlock it
Oh yes, and it also makes stuff like spikes not work. There's workarounds to it that I've noticed some creators use, but with large weapon packs with 20+ weapons, each one isn't fine tuned like that, more quantity over quality. There's interesting packs with clear work put in, like the Training Weapons Pack.
Get through the gauntlet and beat the baron
looks heavy
I like how it's so heavy you literally can't use lol
What in the 😭
It's like you're fighting in a dream
how long did it take yall to beat the ultimate challenge
Yeah I figured it was too early to bother with mods.
There was no way it would interact with the games complicated physics properly yet.
They're really fun!
Lots of stuff you can do with them
Stuff like this makes it to where the enemy can't get knocked out, but can still die via pain/damage
It's cool for blunt weapons where you can do cool looking combos.
its true !
I actually love the fact that you can knock them tf out and watch them tumble back up 😂😂
Where do you get this one at?
Oh I have that.
howd you twirl it over your head
I love that kicking is pseudo jumping lol
x
- I had to double my strength and it's still hard to use lmao
why tf are they working on a dead body
deco
what mod is that sledge hammer
ChromeWeaponsPack 3.
when is this big update coming out
oct-dec
are you certain?
Yes. Early access release is Q4 of this year
im betting it gonna cost 10 dollars
I'm betting on $30.
I hope not, thats too cheap
what the fuck bro
$30-$40
fuck is wrong with you
what are we going to get thats new
if it has split screen coop or multiplayer
im giving everything
Pregnant willy in game
It will not have multiplayer in early access.
does it??????????????????????
split screen?????? coop?????
It MAY have multiplayer after full release if they deem it possible.
multiplayer in tier 4 and 5 are gonna be spamming goedendags
i saw someone say that it will have split screen
at q4 release
4q
i dont even know what that means
It might. They had a demo of that. I dont know if that's been confirmed.
Most people voted 20, Pierre said around 20,
Maximum they'd ever have it is 30
It will
October-December the fourth quarter of the year
Like paladin john said
wsp
I have a clip for @tender quest
i downloaded it and it didnt work
crunchy
poor arms
anyones game get reset?
Think they're leaving money on the table though, unless lots of people under 18 are buying the game.
it happens when you die,you lose progress
lspdfr or half sword 🤔
ive complted the entire gauntlet and havent played in a few days and now its reset
i like ramming ppl with noose
or
doing noose assignments
is this a parry i thought parrying is when you stop a enemys active attack and counterattack or is it also when u move their weapon away
how do u clip ts without nitro
clean asf
jesus.
Got the bop in and the....microscopic atom split slice that let his neck stay together.
his neck didnt even know it had been severed
Honestly! Good block for that first hit.
there was a guy that was doing flying armbars anyone know where can i find those clips again
he was doing some really crazy shit
there was like a suggestion channel did they remove it
top 10 m00 clip right here
You should put it in a special folder.
That was wild.
That was a For Honor execution.
oh its there i just needed to extend the page
haha what the fuck even is this thing
when new armor comes out I am gonna bust
Nice but what game is that for
this is a For Honor execution
I mean that was certainly cool but tbh I think the other one is better.
every physics based game promises multplayer
i wanna see multiplayer work in this game without a lan connection
im sure you do, but when did they promise multiplayer?
idk
if it works it works
i never said they did
point is its a hard thing to pull off
you said it right here
alright mr python
literally not
but i agree with you, i would also like to see the multiplayers so i can finally murder m00 to death 😄
This is some world of warcraft shit right here
I just want to terrorize my friends in Half Sword
then you risk death
looks like something used to remove tiles from bathroom walls and floors
i would like for willie to have wrists not made of repurposed soggy noodles
Definitely world of warcraft shit
wouldnt be fun if there was no challenge 😄
while fighting off zombies
moo is unbeatable
bad to the bone riff plays
how does one achive meme manager
(so low quality 😭)
this thing looks like a melee, a ranged weapon and an instrument all at once
i was struggeling with 1fps while taking that pic ngl
m00 you got any funny outtakes where you try to do some cool move and get your ass beat?
lemme dig
This is kind of sick, however, I feel like the hand would be stabbed...hmmmm
me when i impale myself
man imagine losing due to a technicality
ye
okay this is....kinda sick
its a baby halberd
Big fan of using just the tip
I made this joke once early in this server and almost got banned
youre not cool enough
theres too many clips to sift though
i want to make a immature joke but ill refrain
that cutting sound is cursed
fucking brilliant
LMFAO
A bit more of the tip
greatsworder
idk what kind of music that is but it adds aura
https://youtu.be/xtxjm7ciwmc?list=RDblkhko_4T8s might be this one

no one knows
I've given friction burns before
Tbh using a torch as a weapon would be too op but cool🦠
Holyfuckingshit.jpg
Does the game will have a new gamemode?
cool
idk why but when facing axes i just feel compelled to flail the sword around
most likely
it seems the inertia helps me bypass the guard/parry properly
is it a real technique
ok
@shell bronze
what
what do ya think
dude was dragging you by the hair like a abusive ex lMFAo
Thats only if fire is implemented as a binary "on fire or not on fire"
Without partial burning or the ability to put it out.
Its not really gonna catch flesh itself on fire without prolonged exposure...maybe clothes.
But the fire might just go out after a couple swings and become like any other wooden club.
if you mean fighting against axes i just outmaneuever them unless i'm using my veteran longsword guy
How many strikes can you get in before they hit the ground after taking lethal damage?
I beg to differ I'm actually like the nazgul if you touch me with a torch I just spontaneously combust IRL
so you dont flail around like a montante?
lately ive been striking their axes out of the way
i never flail around unless it's for consecutive hits to the head/throat area
I love long weapons
huh just thought youd know whether it was a real technque or not
Becouse i can hit enemies before they can hit me
It works but if you miss then you're wide open for a counter, there is no perfect way to fight. Everything can be countered, but yes....swatting at your opponents weapon is a basic technique
Future archer main
it might be for crowd control
like how greatswords were supposed to be used with all of that twirling and craziness
I like to do this against axes, though lately I kinda suck at it. Need to practice this more
against those guys if i want to win i just wait for an opening and do one or two firm strikes
If bows wont be most ass thing to aim, id be proably maining
big azz axe means it's slow
50/50 because sometimes they just cut your hands clean off
You can simply avoid cutting your hands by positioning appropriately
fake news
I want to parry arrows :(
Example of actively protecting your arms through the use of binds and manipulating your opponent's weapons
I dont know if its just becouse im ass at this game, or long weapons are just bad when there is barely any armour
these axe wielding chumps are fun to play around with
you can also bind them easily
doesnt work so well against axes
sometimes they just do the "ding" sound effect and something falls off
it works fine. It just takes more practice
what is this....
the secret layer
Imagine this being your last moments on earth bro
Still so proud of this parry I got last night. Truly a top 10 moment for me
I love long swords becouse you can both cut people, and have a blunt weapon
nice
they're great
that was proper sauerkraut moment
they're actually fantastic with less armor
it's how the pitchfork is a brutal pos all the way up to veteran
some of them are also
I feel like im the only person who enjoys both first person and shields/bucklers in this game....
I hate fighting against ta weapon😭
Ts*
it's a pain in the ass
The buckler fears no spiky stick!
To be real with yal i dont think i made it to veteran more than 1 time in gauntlet mode, nearly all the time i just play the free mode
with sword and shield the plancon is a pushover though
the plancon leaves the rotation after soldier/t5 so you can deal with the axe instead
which is veteran to man at arms
that felt good even by watching
i'd much rather fight the axe
I swear this is my favorite style of cut.
on god we need something to be done about blunt damage in armor
Anger is a competition legal steroid
Axe can be easy to fight tbh
Unless it chops your hand
i wish you could do ox/kasumi no kamae properly in this game
dude will just NOT GO DOWN
Unfortunately you cannot
ikr
mayhaps
Maybe punch him
guy is made of bricks or something
use one like his
im not the best type with spear like weapons
Rush him with a stabby weapon, dodge left, not right
that's ok that spear he uses you just have to whack him really hard with
treat it like a baseball bat instead of a spear
and you will beat him
andd the commoner boss?
Stab him with his own hand
commoner boss easier
don't block his attacks it's just not worth it
use timing and footwork
it is but not recommended
alr thanks
You're not meant too he has a huge size advantage on you
Fuckass golliat with a huge sword
stab his ass
I'll let you in on a little secret:
You can stab. It is easy.
Hold ALT and LMB, then drag your mouse right. Then drag forward. You'll hit your target most if not all the time.
The greatswords are so....odd physics wise.
i block attacks for fun all the time but that guy is just unfun to fight against
this is what happens when you try to actively block him
go for a few blocks and then for the kill instantly
Yall I just got fucking blood bended
this man has a sword that can break your guard even in a hit that he doesn't even fully commit to
Hey fencer its bigfijiwiji.
Do you know what guard would counter this?
Yeah his sword is just too heavy to effectively block it
and once you figure this aspect of half sword out you can win any fight in this game
hey is there a way to turn off the auto guard that moves your sword to try to catch enemy weapons
half sword is as easy as you make it after you grasp the footwork and how to swing good
fiore should have a response to this specific attack
no
If you're actively moving the sword, I find that it doesn't do the auto-guard
:o
when i tell you polearm users have a blessing from the gods once in a while that performs divine intervention
Even just slowly moving the sword
Occasionally swords are blessed as well
the physics sperging out at one point which leads to a loss
I think the physics and AI difficulty are randomized every time the game is launched
cause sometimes, my hits will be perfect
Embrace the buckler
I would enjoy shields and bucklers mroe if they didn't catch my swing on occasion and kill the momentum
I enjoy a buckler with a PHAT Falchion
but the gameplay is braindead
literally you can put me on max damage against myself in militia-man at arms
and give me any of the sword and shield loadouts
and i can beat the other guy's ass no matter what weapon he has
it's so free
guys how do you beat the ultimate challenge i keep dying to knights
such high intensity gameplay
pick up a polearm that looks heavy on the other end and slap them all in the head
what is a polearm again?
long sticks with metal at the end
LOL
what
i won with no hands while he had a sword
guys how do you level up
Live in 5. Come hang out! (link in bio)
what are you gonna do now?
Disneyland
just be active on the server
porbably mods
play as him until I'm bored and then MODS
The baron is so kewl.
I had to use spikey stick to beat him
Baron isn't that fun honestly.
Doesn't everyone do that?
but I was having many issues trying to swing diagonally for his head lmao
just wait until I have the pitchfork
John Halfsword needs to release his sorcery tutorial.
All I know is that he uses HS enhancer.

playing as the baron isn't really fun you can barely move
wasnt sure what happened there until i watched it back
while I find the pollaxe to be a bit too cumbersome the greatsword and mace are wonderful to use
the mace is like swinging a knife because of how fucking massive you are
the sword is better used in halfsword basically all the time; it's got WAY too much weight going out so swinging it normally is slow
i think the baron needs to have increased strength, as his weapon is very heavy
as he is endgame it wouldnt be overpowered i dont think to give him like +25% strength
to weild his hammer better
Dude I can’t beat the baron let alone give him more power for the love of god I do t want them to add that
the baron is already strong as hell the polearm is just unreasonably heavy
try picking up a regular weapon with him and you'll see
last run i used a sheild and a mace
got to the baron before getting my hand chopped off
i wanna beat ultimate challenge but i'm to bad
i just got so far in ultimate challenge (my pb) and the game crashed because i forgot to turn of blood
when i got the fatal error i was devastated
as our resident crack enjoyer i agree /j
#realcrackheads
OMG I JUST GOT TO THE FINAL GOLD GUY BUT DIED
i disarmed him but he pulled out a huge greatsword and got a throat cut
its so annoying when you get non lethally stabbed and you just cant do anything except run and kick
Thoughts on this clippy poo
that was so satisfying
especially since you did it in first person which is way harder
this one wasn't bad either
I took his buckler away lol
good
it looks so satisfying
damn, that was clean.
@ionic smelt u still play?
it might be my british blood but I love the billhook
polearm master stroke, why can't KCD2 have these things
Alright my recording software be making my clips choppy af, I just need to make the switch to OBS,
but this was clean mefinks
Perfect buckler parry
Just notice that in the play test, Willie is more aggressive with his attacks
Heyya
Is there any mods to give or unlock more choices of weapons and armors?
Like i would love if first levels of the demo actually had hammers to be chosen
Hi half swordians
You can use half sword enhancer to spawn spoilance items and abyss items, and use ovrdths loadout selector to save the equipment.
There's also weapon mods and some add Hammers.
All on the nexus mods website.
#modders-guild-hall if you have more questions
spikey sticks
are VERY good, to an almost unreasonable point
legit if yo uget one in the ultimate challenge you switch it for nothing else
nerf? idk tbh but if there was a weapon in that category it'd be the spikey stick
"ackshually, i believe that the large candlestick is WAY too overpowered for spoilances ☝️🤓 "
for reference its called a godendag
its also referred to as a plancon (by nerds) which sounds so much worse than godendag
nah candelabra my goat fr
real
best weapon next to the billhook
Billhook is okay
I mostly use it in its secondary grip and sort of "walk-by" people and take their heads off from a safe swinging distance lmao
If I had to pick, really really only one.
Two Handed Battleaxe
OH YEAH true
that thing is so cracked
also true
Its just a 50 pound laser
Gambeson works mostly vs plançon but its a good second
oh also
did they add a new coughing sound effect?
or is that just me
i keep saying this but can we replace that god awful short billhook with a threshing flail
nobody uses the thing
its a filler weapon
the tool billhook is SO buns 🥀
look up what a threshing flail is
yea I know : D
so much potential
bro please stop typing like this before mods turn slow mode back on please
Hand bill is by far the worst weapon in the game. Death by 1000 cuts
Also hear me out, a sentence or paragraph.
Do you have notifs on or smthn. That's the only way i could see it being irritating tbh
No shade
They turned on slow mode before because multiple people kept typing like that. Just type it as a sentence. It's not hard.
Thats fair I agree, I just dont notice if I don't have notifs on so I was curious. All good m'lord
But hey are yall talking about the one handed billhook or the two handed one at peasant?
the one handed one
you know what im talking about
The one handed hook bill
Two handed english bill is the best bad t2 weapon
Imo
I always end up using it as a baton with the occasional bonus of a throat slit haha
Tru lol it helps me practice my spacing
why are yhou using it in the first place dawg
Same with the knives bc best case scenario its one clean cut
its ass in the form of a farming tool
For fun. To experice the game outside of winning for the umpteenth time. Doi
fair
Im being dramatic anyway but yeah
Just to try stuff out
Being able to make the worst weapons work, makes you strongah in the end
unpopular opinion but i think the regular sickle needs a buff
I like to imagine myself as a dirty mugger mugging peasants with what hes got
Its not fantastic but definitely usable.
I might enjoy it buffed a tad
What about the small billhook?
hey ive always wanted to do that
That is the topic at hand sir
it culd be buffed a bit
I thought you guys were talking about sickle.
scroll em up
Oh okay
We were for a sec but overall yeah the billhook
i would also like to adress another problem, gentlemen
Proof t2 boss is a garbo pushover
Dont you hate when the other side of your poleaxe cant dig into Willie's flesh as frequent as the main side?
Introducing...
Meanwhile, T3 boss is a menace without cheesing him with a pitchfork.
