[arctic plank]

cant wait until someone makes a 5 hour long video essay on half swords lore and the implications of fighting and rising through the ranks in great detail

[shell bronze]

you get a feel for it more or less

lower sensitivity helps

vergil after 1 week in london

[real salmon]

What happened to his hair🥀

[flint fox]

My proudest kill by far is the nut kicking one

And by a lot

[arctic plank]

my proudest kill by far is when one guy slipped on himself

the only documented evidence that i have on it is a youtube short

[deep citrus]

do abyss commoners spawn two at a time (sometimes behind you) on purpose?

[arctic plank]

two at a time definately on purpose

[vital perch]

@shell bronze

[flint fox]

It’s more than that, I got both my hands chopped off by the peasant boss and all I could do was kick and every single kick landed right on his balls and he eventually fell over and straight up fucking died.

[shell bronze]

ow

it was a nice block at first but you broke away too quickly/the wrong way for a swing

[vital perch]

i try to riposte right after a block

[shell bronze]

that's perfectly fine it's just the timing and sword placement

this is usually what i do against attacks like those specifically

the second parry in the clip

gotta let their sword fall out of the danger zone or put it there first before you hit a riposte

[vital perch]

noted

[shell bronze]

riposte too early and it's just pray he doesn't continue on his original path of attack

[vital perch]

improvise , adapt , overcome

[shell bronze]

rip

[formal coyote]

whats your gpu

[sleek gull]

Some lazy af swings lol

[formal coyote]

gpu

[shell bronze]

7900 xtx 24gb

[formal coyote]

holy fuck.

i gotta 4060

[shell bronze]

@vital perch usually you gotta injure them heavily or pretty much seal their fate before you throw stuff

[vital perch]

i know but i did this for the funny

[shell bronze]

those left side crouch parries are such great counters against their dominant side swings

[tacit star]

how do i snap someones neck purposefully,i know its a mechanic because i just did it with a hammer

[shell bronze]

with your bare hands on default settings it's not the easiest thing

maces will get you there

blunt polearms too

[vital perch]

catch them in a clinch , preferably half sword them in between you and the weapon , then try to twist their head as much as possible

[tacit star]

also i noticed a cool feature, i hit someone very hard wiht a blunt weapon and knocked him out not killed. knocked. later i came to finish him off and heard the noise, although he was unconcious which is cool

[tacit star]

ty

[wet stump]

no way, sameko saba is playing half sword. I swear if she beats the baron I'm gonna be so mad cause I have 80+hrs on the game and I can't even beat the commoner boss

[oak surge]

Isn't that the big axe guy?

[tacit star]

i cant even grisp onto their head @vital perch

[vital perch]

don't grab , half sword the weapon between them and you

[tacit star]

or i lose grip

halfswording makes me cut their head off

[vital perch]

@shell bronze i think you'll like this one

[oak surge]

half sword moment

[vital perch]

then use something that's not sharp?

[shell bronze]

fantastic

[tacit star]

how will halfswording snap their neck?

[shell bronze]

that's a clip i can't see anything wrong with

took control of his weapon and then killed him without giving him any leeway against you

[vital perch]

extra style points if i had hit the throw

[shell bronze]

a full safe and guarded kill

[heavy aspen]

yo anyone know how to exit the abyss at a certain point?

[vital perch]

keep going and looting then beat the boss

direction doesnt matter

[keen dock]

quit to menu

quit to desktop

[vital perch]

if you quit you lose the character tho

[heavy aspen]

no I mean like how to get my screen to flash to white and send me back to the main menu with the character at that point

[keen dock]

yes, but you'll leave the abyss at a certain point

[keen dock]

nevermind

[deep citrus]

gotta beat abyss boss

[heavy aspen]

k

[arctic plank]

woah okay i did NOT know we had superpowers

[keen dock]

that happens before your screen turns white

[arctic plank]

we got time slow?

[keen dock]

f

[small dove]

yes..?

[arctic plank]

since when did we have that

[vital perch]

usually not worth it unless extra style points

[deep citrus]

I never use time slow tbf I forget it exists quite a lot

[keen dock]

same

[small dove]

i use time slow for parrying

and spin kicks

because i suck at spin kicks

[vital perch]

hold shift for spin kicks

[small dove]

i said that i use time slow for spin kicks

im not asking how to do a spin kick

[vital perch]

oh mb

[small dove]

headbutt so fun

[timid imp]

bonk

[vital perch]

slight headache idk tho

[small dove]

backhand slap

[slim shell]

Friends, are you planning to bring pvp and multiplayer system to this game in the future?

[small dove]

ya asking if there's gonna be mods that allow multiplayer or multiplayer included in the game?

[slim shell]

Yes

[small dove]

ok I won't answer

[slim shell]

I'm good at playing with my friends.

[pearl ferry]

yea me too

[soft osprey]

#faq

[sleek gull]

Love a grab and slash.

[small dove]

why are all of my matches so weird

[timid imp]

poor willie

[small dove]

if he was able to afford such armor, he probably wasnt very poor

[timid imp]

so true

[small dove]

it's nice armor

[copper canopy]

When is half sword 2 being released

[vague dust]

How do I split screen?

[copper canopy]

You need to scan the link

[timid imp]

mine now

[small dove]

whole sword

[oak surge]

🤯

[velvet sandal]

full sword

[latent moon]

i cant even fathom those moves

I WANT A MOD CONSOLE SO I CAN TP TO STAGES

[shell bronze]

my and brotha militus swinging swords at people

[latent moon]

thats so fast wtf

[velvet sandal]

Has anybody actually played the splitscreen build yet?

[latent moon]

its not even available

[strange wasp]

2025 over halfway done and none of the games I've been waiting for that way "2025" have come out broke 💔

[latent moon]

its gonna be showcased somewhere

[strange wasp]

Killer bean the game whrn

[velvet sandal]

OOOO

[velvet sandal]

😭

[shell bronze]

those commoner longswords are agile

if you ignore the shitty reach and questionable sharpness they are exceptionally fun

you don't

by all means

we already have a clunky implementation of split screen

yes #modders-guild-hall

👌

[tacit star]

new bug found, dont spam punch when u have iron gloves on. you might hit them in the face and crash from the blood

[tacit star]

bro no need to do allat just slash at him 💔

[shell bronze]

ikr

it could be so easy

[velvet sandal]

That has gotten a Cease and Desist or something though

[shell bronze]

then we'll have official split screen soon

[velvet sandal]

Can't wait!

[jolly gorge]

bro mechs in this game are so new for me

[deep shale]

contrary to popular belief, you don't need to be a 1400s swordsman extraordinaire to put the pointy end inside the enemy

[honest owl]

Stabs with cross guard

[silent torrent]

plançon

[real salmon]

Plançoff

[deep shale]

it might hurt but i'd still win

i think thats where the real fun is, perseverance
winning despite reciving a big hit

[real salmon]

The last one is INSANE

[analog pelican]

the limb loss screem volume should definetly be lowered compared to all other voice volumes, atleast for your own scream, cus when others scream its not that bad, but when you scream its like its screaming directly into your ear never ending never stopping constant agonizing audible torture. well thats atleast how i feel about it.

[shy kestrel]

I keep getting a fatal error after a while of playing Half sword, why is that?

[analog pelican]

i have heard that maybe the abyss or other endless modes might be buggy like that. or maybe if youre using DX12

for me the game crashes when using DX12 atleast.

[silent torrent]

The fact there was no pain or death sound either, bro fucking fell like a sack of potatoes

[shy kestrel]

DX12?

[analog pelican]

direct x 12, i think, idr.

[shy kestrel]

K

[analog pelican]

this

[shy kestrel]

I see

[analog pelican]

i think maybe theres a memory leak or something if you use DX12 idk

last i checked atleast

[pearl ferry]

absolutely devious peasant SLAUGHTERS man at arms willies

[deep shale]

i like the part where the sword phases through the last guy's breast plate like butter

[jolly gorge]

Bro so after i get past beggar, if i die in the next faction they reset me back to beggar?

[pearl ferry]

they do that after latest update

you can do it consistently if you slice into their shoulder

sword will eventually end up in their chest even if they are wearing breastplate

[deep shale]

i had a moment like that

some dental work

the retaliation after a parry is always the most satisfying

[jolly gorge]

sooo?

[shy kestrel]

Just figured out you can headbutt

[lapis marsh]

yes

[vital perch]

chat it's my birthday today :D

[shy kestrel]

Happy B day 🔥

[vital perch]

@shell bronze a very nice duel

[dawn lake]

how do I play the challenge mode?

[vital perch]

you mean gauntlet?

[dawn lake]

no the one where characters keep spawning on you

not the abyss mode but the one thats in the gauntlet arena

[vital perch]

oh uhh

[dawn lake]

the one where youre in purple

[vital perch]

oh

you need to beat the default gauntlet first

[dawn lake]

ah fair

[vital perch]

the video's frozen

[shell bronze]

me when they try to feint me

[vital perch]

what the fuck

all videos are frozem for me

[south canyon]

have anyone tried to kill the king and does the king or royal exist in the game?

[shell bronze]

proper samurai duel

[soft kelp]

i mean

[south canyon]

what

[soft kelp]

the only royalty in the game right now is the baron

[south canyon]

wdym

[soft kelp]

the game doesnt have nearly enough lore yet

there is no king

the only royalty in this game is the baron and knight tier

all i know is that the baron is in the blue team

you can see the pattern on the shield on his shoulder matches that

[dusk adder]

oh yeah I remember playing on dx12 once and it miraculously didn't crash for a veritable length, but I had to restart it anyway because it became laggy

[vital perch]

@shell bronze

[vital perch]

this one looks so much cooler tho

[sleek gull]

Reverse grip kill!

[shell bronze]

i love my kurosawa duels

[restive barn]

i havent watched the video yet but...

[vital perch]

he has a good gaming chair trust

[sleek gull]

I have a Laz-E-Boy office chair = D It is super cozy

[vital perch]

my gaming chair is my bed

quite literally

[stoic sedge]

[small glen]

[small glen]

clean af

[fierce acorn]

take it easy appolo your one of the few people i like here

[small glen]

cheers

[vital perch]

clean enough

[soft kelp]

insane setup

still cant run half sword dx12 cinematic at 60 fps tho

maybe a nasa computer could

[sleek gull]

I can get about 70 on DX12. But the sword control suffers compared to the 100 I get with DX11

[shell bronze]

i hate you plancon user

[lapis marsh]

skill issue

[vital perch]

parry this you filthy casual

[shell bronze]

anti polearm warfare

[vital perch]

#halfsword-chat-⚔ message

[small glen]

this axe dude was hella tanky

[small glen]

i could sense the "Oh shit" when his half swording locked your arm in place

[shell bronze]

literally

i was inches from death

that greatsword and all of that armor did nothing to help willie

[small glen]

for some reason, i only get in that position when i wear armor, never when i am in low tiers. it happens a lot in spear combat, when your just bear hugging the AI whispering in his ear to not use his frontal lobe and smack my very exposed legs

[humble harbor]

Wow this was a nasty throw

Second one I’ve ever gotten

Took his head clean off poor Willie

Who saw my first one uhhh

@wind charm

[humble harbor]

Nice

[shell bronze]

i'm genuinely ass at trying to do cool stuff with polearms

[lapis marsh]

skill issue

[shell bronze]

ikr

i'm team longsword the whole way

[indigo shadow]

You were not kidding, boss 3 is a tough cookie 😅
I have gotten better at the game and have a better understanding of whats going on though so im good with this guy with the huge sword being the wall for now.

[shell bronze]

oh yeah

downshift to second tier and get the pitchfork

it equalizes you two

[indigo shadow]

Interesting, i'll try that next time.

[shell bronze]

yeah you can use that and stab him for cheese

[indigo shadow]

Im not good with spears i have a hard time actually stabbing. Like i push what the game says to push but my guy doesnt stab

[shell bronze]

you gotta aim proper

[indigo shadow]

I'll get there. I just gotta play more. Thanks for the tips.
I like going through here and watching all of the gameplays everyone posts. You guys are pretty darn good at slinging simulated sharpened metal at NPCs.

[dusk adder]

some more stabbing tips you

from willie bot

[shell bronze]

i would be honored

[vital perch]

i mean there are some neat clips

[vital perch]

this one for example

maybe not cool but funny as fuck

[vital perch]

or this one

[soft kelp]

Oh yeah me too

Now play small buhurt

[hushed hatch]

would you send a vid of you against the commoner boss

[shell bronze]

sure

do you want it with a parry or the simple way

[hushed hatch]

either

[shell bronze]

ok i'll include both

[vital perch]

ngl spending all night playing commoner changes a man

[hushed hatch]

humbles you for sure

[shell bronze]

i've been commoner longsword since demo released

loyal to the cause

[vital perch]

you could say i'm slowly becoming a commoner main too

[shell bronze]

welcome aboard

the way of the unarmored 2 handed swordfighting

[hushed hatch]

you have really good timing i can only beat him after like 3 tries or getting lucky with the pitchfork tactic

[vital perch]

i mean , i've got some style and skill compared to before those 8 hours

where r u from if i may ask?

[shell bronze]

wym

[vital perch]

like what country

[shell bronze]

the best thing to put the timing in your control is to feint them

[shell bronze]

i'm from vietnam but i live in the US rn

why

[vital perch]

just curious

i'm from poland

been playing commoner since 10:00 PM to like 5:30 AM

that would be like

uhh

well about 2 PM to 9:30 PM your time

[shell bronze]

katana v longsword

[shell bronze]

i play after work so any time after 8pm eastern time

[vital perch]

i'm genuinely confused with compass directions

was eastern left or right

[shell bronze]

i live in florida

eastern is to right

[vital perch]

oh i see

so your timezone is PST or sum like that

[shell bronze]

est

eastern standard time

[hushed hatch]

my favorite mode is the fist play because it feels so nice to land good hooks on em and watch them slowly fall

i swear this game brings out my "there were no signs" murderer

[vital perch]

i'm just gonna remember your time is 8 hours behind mine because i fucking hate timezones 😭

[shell bronze]

the katana just looks so much better with my fighting style

[shell bronze]

lmao that's fine

[worldly charm]

dude, the ultimate challenge sucks

im gonna lose my mind

[vital perch]

it's called ultimate challenge for a reason

[worldly charm]

okay, but two plancon users in stage 3 is a little agredious RNG

[vital perch]

[worldly charm]

i swear half of the weapons i am getting are made of foam

and the enemies are made of adamantine

[vital perch]

most of them are not bad , just gotta learn how to use them

and if you REALLY need to , then use damage sliders

[worldly charm]

that's the worst part, my pride wont let me

[vital perch]

yeah i get that

but if you can't beat the challenge then what other choice you have

they are there to be used

so use them

[worldly charm]

I just don't understand how to be super accurate in this game. I have tried adjusting the sensitivity a ton of times but I can't seem to find a good balance between swinging for the fences after moving my mouse a centimeter, and needing an entire football field to get a good swing

anyways, back to my skill issues i guess

[vital perch]

get a bigger mousepad

fr tho , for more accurate swings set the sensitivity to very low

[worldly charm]

https://tenor.com/view/really-dumbass-gif-26545287

[hushed hatch]

they really should just add a rocket launcher with a switch and infinite ammo or maybe zeus powers

[vital perch]

embed fail

[worldly charm]

oofta

[vital perch]

dw , levels are easy to obtain

[stable rivet]

did it go through the armor here?

it looks like it sliced right through that pad

[worldly charm]

okay, back to my suffering

[shell bronze]

it's just jank with that armor piece

if you swing hard enough it just pierces

kenjutsu ❤️

[vital perch]

isn't it funny how there is 120k people on the server yet i see only 10 people that i recognize on this channel

[stable rivet]

like the billhook with most cuirasses

still don't know why, or whether or not its intentional

but the billhook does pierce armor, ive done it plenty of times before

[shell bronze]

it's insanely crazy

[vital perch]

anyway i'm off to sleep

gn yall

[stable rivet]

a lot of huge servers end up like this, only a number of known members usually talking

not saying that its dead, but i guess most people are just doing something else or just checking the update channels

[vital perch]

maybe one day

[shell bronze]

a lot of people only go here to complain about difficulty or ask for help

or complain about crashes

[stable rivet]

yeah, that

[shell bronze]

or complain more about difficulty

[stable rivet]

can you blame em though? half sword is pretty unique in its combat

[vital perch]

"the game is hard"

"use damage sliders then"

"no its cheating"

[stable rivet]

a huge chunk of people will give up on it before they get good

[vital perch]

75% of this server simply has a skill issue

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[shell bronze]

it's physics based

[vital perch]

but what can you do

there are people good and bettwr

[stable rivet]

we all had a skill issue at some point

the difference is that we stuck

https://tenor.com/view/cell-perfect-cell-ballin-cell-ballin-minigif-gif-12346267838939534693

[vital perch]

maybe the real half sword is friends we made along the way

[stable rivet]

bars

anyway, gonna go to bed too

late as hell

[vital perch]

well that didnt take much...

[sterile nova]

is there any way to reset your data, i wanna play the campaign again?

[tall dagger]

beat the campaign and the utlimate challenge?

[tired agate]

no

you need a mouse

[little verge]

https://tenor.com/view/coming-up-gif-23415365

[little verge]

You can play with a controller.

[tired agate]

how

[tall dagger]

the game hasnt even reached early access yet. theres a long road ahead before they can even think about releasing to console

[tired agate]

yea

[little verge]

Nothing special same way you use a controller with any other game on PC. There are only a few keybinds not supported currently.

[tired agate]

its probably pretty weird

[tall dagger]

have you guys made good progress on your gore engine?

[little verge]

It's actually easier for allot of people.

[tired agate]

i havent touched a controller in 3 years

[tall dagger]

real T-T

[tired agate]

yea

[little verge]

It is coming along nicely.

[tall dagger]

yay! will EA's new gore be revolutionary?

[little verge]

You don't play many games with driving eh?

[little verge]

It will be worth the wait.

[tired agate]

i have a steering wheel that plugs into my pc

and foot pedal

[tall dagger]

lol i just downloaded forza on my PC. thinking about getting a racing sim setup because playing on keyboard is hell...

[tall dagger]

play halfsword with your steering wheel 👀

[tired agate]

hell no

[little verge]

That's better then a controller by far.

[tired agate]

i agree with that

[little verge]

Would be worth the video clip.

[tired agate]

nah

Willie’s head came clean off with that throw

[sweet fiber]

clean ass toss 🔥

[humble harbor]

Thank you thank you

I have another lemme find

[sweet fiber]

yeah the only weapon i can consistently toss is the knife from UC

[sweet fiber]

[humble harbor]

Throwing that axe is like 95% luck

[sly stone]

guys can anyone help me half sword isnt loading

[humble harbor]

I’ll do it for fun to see if I can land a blow and it’s like a 1 out of 20 occurrence

[sly stone]

showing like a fatal error thingy

[humble harbor]

On load?

[sly stone]

yup

[humble harbor]

Odd

Reinstall

[sly stone]

ive tried reinstalling it so many times

[humble harbor]

Very odd

Idk

[small glen]

fuck Plancons!

[small glen]

(I def do not main plancon)

[humble harbor]

Excellent throw

That axe seems to be best for it

[sweet fiber]

[humble harbor]

I have some other weapons I wanna experiment throwing with in the future

[tall dagger]

its fun when you can get the little axe to stick in their head. its so friggin hard tho T-T

[humble harbor]

Yeah that’s a tough one

I should try using slow mo to throw

Just kinda feels like cheating

[humble harbor]

I wanna hit a clip throwing the hoe

[humble harbor]

Okay that’s pretty sick

[restive barn]

who wants a custom made personal weapon

for your personal use

[small glen]

poor man

[small glen]

[restive barn]

okay oopen ur dms

[small glen]

oh no

[restive barn]

im js trying to get into the specifics

[tall dagger]

he swatted that shit T-T

[small glen]

"Call a ambulance.. but not for me!"

[tall dagger]

that man was angry and i was having none of it

[small glen]

holy

[naive holly]

My one clip for the night

Well, buckler swag actually

[steady ice]

How did u not get poked

[naive holly]

Gambeson + there was no force behind it

[brave coyote]

Have you guys seen any clips of the halfsword pvp split screen yet?

[small glen]

the plancon needs motion for it to actually cut

[naive holly]

They would know

[steady ice]

I usually get poked by the slightest touch

[naive holly]

Idk i have damage sliders set equally at about 40%

[steady ice]

Hey thas cheating

[small glen]

if the Plancon is stopped by an object

[naive holly]

If you say so

[small glen]

it loses a lot of motion

[steady ice]

I have them equally set

[small glen]

making it basically sort of become blunt

[naive holly]

Same

[small glen]

you can see this the most from when a AI hits you over the head

and it slides off onto your shoulder

you take blunt damage but your shoulder remains fine

[steady ice]

Nah that’s never happened

Oh yeah I get blunt damage

But it doesn’t slide off, it’s a direct hit

[steady ice]

My Willie has skill issue

[small glen]

the plancon spikes are super weird

[steady ice]

It usually ends up worse for me

Maybe I just have to get good

[small glen]

or what is likely happening

is when you block it

the AI continues to move it

making it deal damage to you

you want to try and move it away from you

[cinder plover]

It won't be fixed until early access releases

I dont think it will be too long until its out

[modern tiger]

[silk fog]

[modern tiger]

yes

[silk fog]

mustve slipped

[modern tiger]

boss just sliced me once

this willie literally keeps going back into the same place :heart broken:

[latent moon]

What the hell are you doing to the boss?!

[modern tiger]

It is not the boss

regular willie

[modern tiger]

this is the boss

[vivid kettle]

Finally got to the gauntlet that I can only assume leads to the baron but got bored attempting it and got off lol

Rng of whatever weapon the first peasant has is everything I've learned

[weary fossil]

they should lowkey make it so you can get staabbed on those poles on the fence

[ember sail]

2 hard 🙁

[tall dagger]

how?

[ember sail]

i have player damage at like 10% but still i fail

as soon as u have to fight the 2 guys at once it becomes 10x harder

and then its 3

then 4

[tall dagger]

then go lower

[ember sail]

ok

[restive barn]

na

[wooden socket]

ouch..

[proven patio]

Does anyone know if multiplayer will come to the demo?

[wooden socket]

multiplayer is not planned any time soon

[idle crane]

local splitcreen will be available in the early access release later this year in Q4

[proven patio]

Ok. thank you

[ember sail]

what does Q4 mean 🙂

[idle crane]

4th quarter of the year. october, november and december

[wooden socket]

[ember sail]

ohhhh

dude im so hyped

[stone lintel]

ARMMMMM BAR

[wooden socket]

man im already bleeding

[weary fossil]

Why not

[restive barn]

its js not worth it to add

[wooden socket]

even my guy is shocked

[analog pelican]

for me DX12 ruuns alot better, less laggy and looks better, but after playing a game, dying, and going back to the menu the game crashes because of a lack of memory.

[jolly gorge]

I managed to rip off some random scythe boss leg in the abyss after he ripped one of my legs off

legendary clutch

[weary fossil]

It is tho + im sure they dont even need to do anything that much

[glad pelican]

wht is halfsword tech demo ?

[hallow sundial]

Its what you can play right now

[glad pelican]

Im playing on Half sword demo

without the tech in

[tall dagger]

tech in?? tekken????

https://tenor.com/view/meme-gif-10758471661434860821

[idle crane]

it says tech demo on the store page but it will just say demo in your library

[glad pelican]

ty

[hot crag]

can anybody send me the file of the HS Enhancer Launcher because on nexusmods it says its quarantined and you cant download it right now

[analog zenith]

Yes cause of malware or something but I can send it to you later if you really want

[jolly mirage]

hello, I finished the game and I want to change nation, is there really no way to do that ?

[pearl ferry]

flipping pancakes

[pearl ferry]

hehe

[velvet sandal]

Unless you die, no way to change it. Besides, it said that you can omly pick once

[jolly gorge]

Evil willie be like: Let your hand be heavy upon me

[tulip sentinel]

🥺

Willie is so sweet

[jolly mirage]

even if I die I dont loose my progression, maybe because I've already finih the demo

[solemn holly]

@jolly mirage

[jolly mirage]

yes

[solemn holly]

doing this will delete your gauntlet progress and allow you to choose your nation again once you rank up

[jolly mirage]

thank you

[analog zenith]

Check dm not sure if this was version they stopped downloads for

[jolly mirage]

btw ty again I'm doing a no deth run with france and I'm at the soldier

[soft osprey]

Its a false flag, you have to allow an exception in your anti virus

[true zealot]

just tried to load the playtest instead of the demo smh

never uninstalling the playtest 🙏

[soft osprey]

You can launch it with the exe in the files if you have them

[true zealot]

yeah thats why im keeping it

memories of the good old days

[velvet sandal]

NOW I KNOW WHY DX12 IS LOVED

The shadows on medium settings 🤤

But yeah, crashes after dying

[analog zenith]

@true zealot can you copy all the files into a new folder and send it to me on google or something]

nvm got it

[true zealot]

should be a copy of the playtest in the pins of #modders-guild-hall

if not then i can, if you still need it

[analog zenith]

it's fine i got it

[true zealot]

alr

[jolly gorge]

can someone help me with an error?

[soft osprey]

Whatever y’all do behind closed doors is on you but dont openly advertise you are distributing an old build of the game

[analog zenith]

if its crashing it's cause of the gore system just turn off blood

old builds are funny the screaming and the stupidly big weapons

so are the old builds versions of the game that the devs don't want people to play

[tall dagger]

you sayin we have a couple of half sword smugglers in our midst?

[tall dagger]

if you have access to it i dont think they care one way or another.

[analog zenith]

ok

[tall dagger]

they just dont want people advertising links on the discord community because people could be sending malicious links to the ignorant

[soft kelp]

we all fw the kriegsmesser

[soft osprey]

Distributing old builds. If you have it still by all means play it, but distributing it to other people isn’t allowed.

[restive barn]

i dond like kriegsmessre

[soft kelp]

you are not real

[tall dagger]

your*

[wild citrus]

How differently does sword and shield play from axe and shield?

Like around Tier 5

[soft kelp]

there*

[soft kelp]

the main difference is

axe will be more of a mace

[analog zenith]

heavier

[west aurora]

Anyone got any tips on how to defeat the pitchfork guy, I can't do it consitently with the AI being so good at tracking you

[tall dagger]

i gotchu gimme a minute

[tall dagger]

how to deal with pitchfork users

[restive barn]

knock the fork aside

[west aurora]

Jesus christ he got styled on

[tall dagger]

always 🗿

[west aurora]

How does one do this when unarmed?

[restive barn]

fists

[tall dagger]

as long as your arms and legs work, you're never unarmed

[soft kelp]

i think WE ALL know which one here is the best

[tall dagger]

Obviously the war pick

[uneven galleon]

wsp guys

[willow raven]

[restive barn]

its the war staff

war staff>>>

[tender quest]

I swear all this dickhead wants to do is run at you in HALFSWORD grip

[soft osprey]

Careful, he might try this new great technique where you put your sword behind your opponents head and start sawing!

[tender quest]

i think thats probably what he's going for, i heard its the ultimate technique

[strong latch]

I just folded a mans legs like a lawn chair

[flint fox]

Whats the original language of willie/the va

[tender quest]

screams

[twilit escarp]

when all else fails, pummel the enemy's head into a fence post

[abstract quiver]

pee pee and skeebeedee

[flint fox]

how do you holster a primary weapon like a sword

[twilit escarp]

hold q if it's in your left hand and e if it's in your right

[flint fox]

cant seem to holster longswords

[twilit escarp]

some weapons are too long to be sheathed

[polar hemlock]

im begining to believe

[trim ivy]

Is the hipthrow patched?

[shell bronze]

I STG

[trim ivy]

Is it?

like the hipthrow

[shell bronze]

CAN'T HAVE NO FUN WITH THESE ASSCLOWNZ

[ember sail]

pls fix game bru

[rustic steppe]

try improve on swatting it away then moving in close

like instantly moving in

[trim ivy]

Is hipthrow patched???!?!?!

[soft yoke]

only time you can’t say “shut up low rank”

(took the pic w my phone cuz my ethernet’s busted and i cant get on discord)

[trim ivy]

Oh okay.. lol

[restive barn]

good night

chat

[flint fox]

anyone else having the crash issue before the baron fight? like when your gearing up against the minions

[wheat leaf]

So do yall swing the sword or shwing the sword

Politically speaking

[tough yew]

that's caused by the blood. disable it in order to not crash suddenly

[trim ivy]

Is the hipthrow patched like can you do it anymore?

[trim ivy]

Please anwser?

[tough yew]

probably

Grappling isn't an actual mechanic yet

[trim ivy]

Oh.

I saw a vid of someone like grabbing someone by the hips when he's on the groudn and it started to like...

Spazz out

[tough yew]

unintentional

[trim ivy]

?

[tough yew]

Not meant to happen as far as I'm aware

[fallen flicker]

Only thing close to grappeling is maybe grabbing the enemy

[trim ivy]

alr

[desert finch]

actual grappeling mechs would be so cool though

[trim ivy]

Yeah

[cinder plover]

Played the fight with everything on low

[tough yew]

And it still crashed?

[uneven galleon]

it would be cool if in the full game they added samurai and vikings and stuff

[cinder plover]

Nah it crashes way less but it's painful on the eyes

Anything to beat the Baron

[tough yew]

not planned and will most likely never come

[thin stone]

why does my game look low res and how to fix it?

[raven solar]

up your graphics bro

[uneven galleon]

😭

[little verge]

Most of these clips are utilizing mods.

[deep shale]

WHAT I WOULD GIVE TO SEE
a militus clip in the first person perspective

[uneven needle]

I wish i recorded it but i js beat the peasant boss into submission in the void with my head equipped with a helmet after he decapitated my leg

Im proud now

[thin stone]

LOL thx somehow they were on low (nerver put them down)

[raven solar]

haha

[little verge]

Rubber is as skilled as Militus and plays almost solely in FPV.

[deep shale]

i play in both modes equally but only becuase some helmets are bad in fpv

[tough yew]

I'll get into first person once visor flipping gets added 😏

[little verge]

Drop this in the search bar and you can see her library of clips.
from: rubber1375 has: file

[little verge]

https://tenor.com/view/soon-robert-frustrating-gif-27606638

[tough yew]

It isn't. I want you to give me the secret branch right here right NOW

[tough yew]

jokes aside, find it frankly funny that he managed to survive that hit

[deep shale]

yippe!!

[tough yew]

imagine playing first person with this thing

this sallet does not fuck around

[deep shale]

i'm blind!!
....
which means they can't blind me!!

lets goooo!

[tender quest]

bonk

[tough yew]

had a hand with this as well

dx12 does lag a bit with fp mode

[tender quest]

i would like to see more fencer clips from the second person POV

make it happen

[tough yew]

perhaps

[autumn shale]

Okay the Baron fight was a cool gauntlet but it does not feel worth it when you play the Baron and bro cannot hold the poleaxe high enough to hit anything

Likely a skill issue but the long weapons just feel unwieldy sometimes when you can't hold a spear high enough and it just goes through their legs

[vital perch]

once i'm home i'm joining the clip fest

[shell bronze]

this is precisely why i made a loadout for him with the standard poleaxe (it's actually insane)

it's not even the baron's fault because he swings the regular weapons around like they're made of hollow plastic

his weapons are just fuckass heavy for no reason

[autumn shale]

Yeah I really feel it on his poleaxe but sometimes the polearms just love fighting the ground

[shell bronze]

yeah try using a regular extended poleaxe

[autumn shale]

I'm not expecting Dynasty Warriors gameplay but I'd like to wing these things reliably

[shell bronze]

you'll be doing tricks with that thing and swinging it like kratos if you combine it with baron

[autumn shale]

You can alter loadouts?

[shell bronze]

yes

[autumn shale]

I've just been randomising

[shell bronze]

that's how i do my commoner vs the world clips

use ovrdth's loadout selector and half sword enhancer/trainer mod @autumn shale

[autumn shale]

Gotcha didn't know there was a modding scene

[shell bronze]

half sword enhancer to spawn armor and weapons in and save the loadouts to the game, then loadout selector to save the loadout to an actual registry

[shell bronze]

it's pretty strong so far

#modders-guild-hall

[wet stump]

anyone have a transcript of all the begging for mercy voicelines? i saw them at some point in here but i cant find them

[vital perch]

there's a script for all insults but mercy? doubt 🤷‍♂️

priorities ig

[wet stump]

nah cause i remember reading them to understand what willie is saying cause i have auditory processing issues

both the begging for mercy and win lines

[vital perch]

i'll try to list them for you

[wet stump]

no need, found it. #1314285810115285023 message
for some reason i didnt think to just search the voicelines i remember

[vital perch]

@shell bronze i think you'll like this

[shell bronze]

nice duel

[vital perch]

i got hit with the hilt once but i think it's pretty good

[wet stump]

love how many of the victory voicelines are asking the enemy to join their forces like sir you just skinned that man

[vital perch]

"yo bro get up"

"tf you mean get up you cut my legs off"

"ok but get up"

[shell bronze]

it's funny

[shell bronze]

got clipped in the head with the hilt for this clip

[bold radish]

wodnerful posture

[vital perch]

@shell bronze this one will make you nut

[wet stump]

he looks mildly bothered

[bold radish]

he got yeeted off his feet and thrown on the dirt

[vital perch]

i think he got a mild cut on his face idk tho

[urban jackal]

small headache

nothing bad

[shell bronze]

it's clean but thank god he missed

[urban jackal]

just take some paracetomal

[vital perch]

ice pack will do the trick

[urban jackal]

or however you spell it

[urban jackal]

true

[vital perch]

luck's necessary for common mains too

[shell bronze]

i try to phase out as much luck as possible until it's all control

[urban jackal]

genuinely confused how

[vital perch]

must've been the wind

[shell bronze]

especially against polearms where they are virtually always guaranteed to insta kill/maim you

[wet stump]

and of course the best voiceline: flibberdegibbet

[shell bronze]

unlike the longsword people they are bullshit accurate with their thrusts

[vital perch]

i always try to half-sword their pole up

[ember sail]

anyone ever have a problem with your guy just suddenly running in one direction for no reason?

and how to fix it

[vital perch]

you just really scared him

[shell bronze]

half swording it works sometimes but you sacrifice enough reach to make the timing more strict for the deflection

[ember sail]

its really fucking annoiyng

[shell bronze]

i hold a migi gedan no kamae guard and deflect

[lofty lily]

i still have this

[vital perch]

mostly using half swording to knock the weapon out of my way

[vital perch]

if you mean running away in abyss then that's just an enemy giving up

[ember sail]

no i mean MY character, my willie, suddenly thinks its a good idea to run backwards

or sideways sometimes

[urban jackal]

why is he squirming around

what a little baby

[shell bronze]

kurosawa samurai duels 🤌🤌🤌

[ember sail]

thers more blood outside of him compared to inside him lol

[vital perch]

username checks out

[urban jackal]

lol

i dragged him

[urban jackal]

i have this insane one lemme find it

[shell bronze]

one parry into one kill strike

[tulip sentinel]

i bet you ask questions on discord that you can google with one type

[sweet imp]

Gng what

[lofty lily]

is there anyway to get the playtest back

i have the one without blood but i've been wanting the physics of the one with blood back

[somber lodge]

probably not

[lofty lily]

Sad

Do you think anyones archived the files

[somber lodge]

its possible

but unless youre desperate you likely wont find it

[stiff belfry]

unfortunately HSG has stopped allowing people to distribute the files

[somber lodge]

I dont get wanting the old versions

[stiff belfry]

playtest is far better than the demo physics wise

until you know what this is i dont even want to hear you TALK about old versions

[somber lodge]

I disagree

I think its more jank

[young ledge]

Speed and precision, gentlemen

[sleek gull]

Getting closer to the three cut win. Had to put a few extra on the last guy.

[small needle]

You could make heads pop in the old versions
you could basically skin people

the playtest is better in almost every way but those 2 things

[stiff belfry]

first spinning spear strike kill in dungeons?

[lofty lily]

atleast there's no blood playtest
