ue5 is a pain in the butt for servers

i play this game called squad which recently upgraded to ue5 and it has made the game awful

the engine is just rough so its hard for developers

im sure they also wouldnt want to release it and it be buggy, thats pretty lame

Baron is a bit underwhelming to play though unless they've rebalanced it since I last tried... Most of his weapons are super awkward to use

That challenge is fun though

[wary niche]

oh they're awkward as fuck

but I have been at this fuck

FOR ALMOST A YEAR

[icy island]

Did they make that little hook on the back of the halberd baron exclusive? I swear I used to get it on regular knight matches, but I haven't been able to get one since they added the baron

[wary niche]

I see it ocasionally

[icy island]

I swear I only ever see it on bosses now

I liked it though, it was very useful

Good for getting in between the chest plate and shoulder on plate armor

[wary niche]

broken ass baron fight this bastard wouldnt get his hand out of my elbow

[icy island]

Lol when I did it my PC was running at like 10 fps

People were stretchy and would warp through the ground for some reason

Sometimes they just didn't drop anything

Idk how I managed to do it

I'm not even that good, can't even get all the way through the abyss

Kinda think I just ran at people and flailed before the AI could react... Maybe they were just as handicapped by my shitty PC as I was

Idk, don't really remember

[near garnet]

[icy island]

Hey, did they make the 1 handed short spear usable yet?
I remember being excited to try shield and spear and then just being unable to hit anything... But the AI seems to do fine with it...

Half hour timer on photography is crazy

[shell bronze]

it's a rarer spawn but you can get it

very good thing to have imo

[heavy hare]

quick question how to stab with polearm?

[thorny stream]

i wish the next update we get some more like

physics-based logic

[thorny stream]

alt to thrust back and forth

[thorny stream]

its one of the best little addons

you can halfsword the halberd and just jab at them or knock them back with it

[shell bronze]

double click

[thorny stream]

or you can use it as kind of like a

bash stab

bash stab

[shell bronze]

it turns it into a nice bo staff with a bonus

[thorny stream]

also very good for parrying

[shell bronze]

that extra length does a lot of favors

[thorny stream]

if they do an open side swing on the halfsword position

its a good check

i honestly think the halfsword position is the bestp osition with all weapons

unless youre using that dumbass big blade axe that literally has no agility

[shell bronze]

that big axe fucks with half sword too

[thorny stream]

barely

[shell bronze]

makes it way quicker

[thorny stream]

when swinging

it literally

is SO slow

[shell bronze]

treat it like a big mace and it is an amazing weapon

[thorny stream]

why are you waering the same thing

in every clip

nad how

[thorny stream]

what plancon is better

this plancon

[thorny stream]

or this one

[shell bronze]

the bigger one

[thorny stream]

okay

[shell bronze]

the random spiked one bludgeons WAY harder

[thorny stream]

more pointy

or less pointy

[shell bronze]

that's the shit that puts knights to sleep

[thorny stream]

the thing i love with the plancon

is that

its versatile for bludgeoning, stabbing

and spearing

[shell bronze]

because it does not obey the laws of physics

[thorny stream]

some of these killshots i hit make me feel bad

[shell bronze]

massive hitbox (all sharp) guarantees something is gonna catch
heavy but the weight is somehow well distributed to make it brutally quick despite the bludgeoning strength it has
still works as a spear and can stab just fine (if not even better thanks to the hitbox)
polearm reach advantage by default

fuckass weapon

[thorny stream]

if you swing whilst in the halfsword position

it kinda does upward jabs

really good to get around neck armor and high shield placement

[shell bronze]

unfiltered plancon hatred

[thorny stream]

do NOT bumrush knights in small buhurt guys

[shell bronze]

if the knight doesn't have a polearm or a greatsword just beat his ass

play a bit more carefully otherwise

[thorny stream]

ice on my neck 👅

@shell bronze the TRUE greatest weapon

By all accounts I really should have died

nice lmao

[thorny stream]

so

this guy just

hit me with his billyhook and im hurt

[shell bronze]

nah that's a bind and a half

[thorny stream]

but im restraining him

im using compliance tactics

[shell bronze]

you stopped the momentum of his sword and bound it

[thorny stream]

he just slammed his head into the post nevermind

[shell bronze]

hug ❤️

[teal swallow]

Does anyone know when the next update will come out?

[thorny stream]

no telling

[wary niche]

the FUCK was that worbling sound!?

[wary niche]

there is no saving only G

[opal sundial]

freaky

willie

[queen fox]

What did he do to deserve this.

[opal sundial]

is the supply of frames short in your region

[queen fox]

He's falling at mach 9

Its usually smooth for me.

[icy island]

Personal my favorite sound in the game was an old one from the demo... Specifically the popping sound that played if you hit someone hard enough in the head with a hammer

[sage sail]

would be cool af if they added an open battlefield in early access

[slow heart]

hello

im having a problem with the game, when im at the final stage, where there are waves of enemies, the game crashes at the 3-4 wave but i can't get why since it happens every time at those waves and the game never crashed for me in any other occasion

[sage sail]

ultimate challange is just like that

[slow heart]

is there a fix?

[sage sail]

you gotta turn ur graphics down and close some stuff for it to not crash

thats what worked for me

[slow heart]

oh alr ty

[sage sail]

np

[slow heart]

epic was not a good idea lmao

[soft osprey]

Turn off blood

[icy island]

Set graphics to lowest and put target frame rate as low as it'll go... Just barely worked for me... Though the weapon physics seem to get less accurate the lower the fr goes

[icy island]

Is that meme about the excessively high-poly blood actually true?

I know blood can have reflections and that can really slow things down but I didn't think it was actually that unoptimized in terms of geometry

Then again it's been a few patches since I last played, might be a bit better since then

[soft osprey]

The playtest original blood update was not a meme at least. It was incredibly high poly, accidentally, which they fixed. Now it’s an issue with plug ins they were using. You can read more about it in the most recent #updates post

It will be fixed for early access

[icy island]

Last I played I still couldn't get a consistent or smooth framerate with more than one opponent present

Also again at lower frame rates the physics seemed to skip

[soft osprey]

Yeah the game is currently not optimized. Early access, I imagine, will actually be optimized. If anything, just for the fact people will finally be paying to play so they don’t have much of a choice, imo

[icy island]

Like if I drag my mouse from one side to the other it doesn't register it as an attack or something and just puts my sword straight from one side to the other without damaging the opponent

*at low fps

Like it does animate the movement but it does it as though you weren't attacking... Idk how to explain, he just shifts his sword from the left shoulder to the right without doing a proper cut sometimes

Idk, they've probably fixed that

Last time I noticed it was like right after they merged the demo and play test, I've simply not played any modes with more than one enemy since then

Lol there were also a lot of glitches with physics... I remember one time trying to draw an axe and it launched me like 20 feet into the air

[rapid inlet]

i really dont want this bug patched

[icy island]

Is it the one where you spawn in and your longsword just flies away?

Video wouldn't load for me

OH
It loaded

[rapid inlet]

lmao

beyblade willie bug

[icy island]

Bro is busting a move

Beyblade beyblade let it rip

[rapid inlet]

i can genuinely do that bug semi consistently its like the highlight of my time playing half sword

you js gotta put ur pitchfork inside of willie and crank it a lil

[icy island]

My highlight playing half sword was that time I got a clean kill with a longsword against a guy with a godendag(?) (spike bat thing?)
Don't know how I pulled it off but I somehow managed to not get it stuck to my hand or leg when blocking and close the distance pretty quick

Did they nerf that 2handed battle axe yet? Last I used it, it'd cut straight through armor

[rapid inlet]

theres a two handed battle axe?

[toxic rose]

how do i use photo mode

[rapid inlet]

press c

[toxic rose]

thx

[mental plaza]

what happened to intestines

[rapid inlet]

mustard

[azure mirage]

incredible

[slow heart]

thanks, i just put the graphics to high and downed the blood a little

just beated the final boss

whats the best strategy for yall?

[rapid inlet]

swing ur weapon at the enemy until they die

[slow heart]

thanks....

[naive holly]

@mental kelp thoughts and uses for einhorn in halfsword. Was yapping with some random abt shit i don't know about

Notably this clip where I take it up then drop it bc I have no idea what to do w it

Cant naturally thrust out of it in game w/o some shenanigans tech i dont know

Maybe an alt tap

[lapis marsh]

could probably go for a cut to the lower left from there

after a parry

[mental kelp]

Which part of that is the einhorn

[naive holly]

Idk the high left guard, again ion know shit some fella just called it out as such.

I just know youre up at this hour n god forbiiidd I feel like yappin 🙄 /s

[brittle raven]

What regions are the game's weapons based on

[naive holly]

Germany/Italy mostly

15th century HRE

[mental kelp]

Einhorn is like an ochs that points upwards

It is assumed to be called so because the blade appears to protrude from the head like a horn

There isn’t very much a guard that fits into that left upper, at least in long sword. It is pretty similar though to the langes messer bogen

Basically a stier (ochs in long sword) that hangs down and points towards center line. Only difference is no hanging

[lapis marsh]

it looks pretty good for upper defense as well as decending strikes. it's quite fiddly to position correctly tho

[azure mirage]

real type

[lapis marsh]

it's meant to be strong with thrusts as well but you cant from that angle in game

[mental kelp]

I use it exclusively for this and inverting the point into the face. If you hit it from a good position you can do the colpo di villano

[lapis marsh]

italian detected

opinion disrespected >:3

[untold wagon]

half sword if devs werent working on bird houses and wagons (insert utopia pic below)

[teal mural]

Listen don't try and take the ability to bonk someone with a bird house away from me

I can't guarantee that's what the plan is but that's what my plan is

[icy island]

You mean posta di finestra

[icy island]

fiore on his way to break your arms

[lapis marsh]

evidently you want this game to take place in a featureless void

[lapis marsh]

he wont be able to reach my with my poleaxe

[icy island]

Some people like that mode

[lapis marsh]

also true

[icy island]

Fiore has poleaxe techniques too

[lapis marsh]

ok but counterpoint

name me one war the italians won

[icy island]

I'm an American, why would you expect me to know anything about international history

[untold wagon]

well then what do we need a bird feeder and a wagon for

[lapis marsh]

decoration???

not everything has to serve an explicit gameplay purpose

[icy island]

Just use the bones of your enemies

[untold wagon]

yea but

[graceful ledge]

How do you play the version where you fight real people ?

[untold wagon]

with the current arena what is a wagon gonna be doing

[icy island]

I do want vehicular manslaughter

[untold wagon]

or a bird feeder

[icy island]

Look nice

[untold wagon]

why would a bird feeder be in the game

[icy island]

You can throw people at it

[lapis marsh]

there's gonna be more than just the one arena

[untold wagon]

a wagon with suplies in abyss mode could make sense

[lapis marsh]

devs have said this is like 5% of the content of the full game

this is not even close to the full game

[lapis marsh]

cant yet

[graceful ledge]

ahh is it only playtest ?

[lapis marsh]

splitscreen comes out in early access

[icy island]

Hey do you know any German manuscripts that teach mounted combat?

[lapis marsh]

online multiplayer is much farther out

[lapis marsh]

devs said they aint adding horses im pretty sure

[graceful ledge]

oh damn is there a release date?

[lapis marsh]

q4 this year

so oct to dec

ive seen so many people come bitching about 'rahh this wip is a fucking toilethouse what use is that'
shut the actual fuck up and let the devs cook

[graceful ledge]

hoohhh okay okay thank yyou thank you

[icy island]

Just saying... Fiore has armored and mounted combat sections... And they have both words AS WELL AS pictures

[lapis marsh]

does fiore have mordhau

[icy island]

Good point

Well pommel

You get the idea

[lapis marsh]

different

[icy island]

Crossguard, whatever

[lapis marsh]

mordhau has you grip the blade with both hands and hit the enemy with the hilt

translates to 'murder stroke' because its the stroke that fucking kills people

[icy island]

Yeah I know, what would be the point of using the leather grip and not hitting them with the metal bit

Well, there's no point involved because that part is usually blunt but

[lapis marsh]

the hilt consists of the guard, grip and pommel

[lapis marsh]

that's the exact point

you use it like a mace

[icy island]

Yeah I know I was making a joke

[lapis marsh]

fuck

sarcasm is impossible to pick up online

[supple cedar]

me when my sword kills people

[lapis marsh]

fair point

[icy island]

Fiore does have a play that's described as "I'll kick you in the balls so hard your guard will falter" though

Reworded a bit but

[lapis marsh]

and also 'to fight someone with two cudgels, throw one of your cudgels at them and then draw your dagger (because fighting with two cudgels is fucking stupid)'

[icy island]

Yeah

[lapis marsh]

gotta give fiore credit, he got a mad ego on him

'i will do this sick ass manuver and you will fucking miss and die (because you suck ass and also your mother is a whore)'

[icy island]

There's also a few illustrations that are like the medieval equivalent of gore... Like the one of the dude with a pole hammer in his face who's just dropped his weapon but still has his arms out like he's holding it

He's also pretty good at drawing expressions of anguish

Not so much general proportions

Some of the faces are kinda goofy but when they look like they're in pain it's spot-on

[lapis marsh]

yeah cuz hes seen the people he teach fuckin die to my man johannes liechtauer

imagine parrying and then counterattacking instead of doing both in one movement

[icy island]

Nah just go straight for the center line

I swear fiore just sees the sword as a tool to enter grappling range

[lapis marsh]

you aint gettin close with the power of master strikes fool

[icy island]

I don't even know what that means

[lapis marsh]

exactly

hence you shall fall for it

[icy island]

I just know I'm not supposed to let Germans have the bind because they'll win if they get it (though that might be just because I'm a shit fencer)

[lapis marsh]

diabolical skill issue honestly

[icy island]

Yeah lol I'm slow

[lapis marsh]

i will open with fools guard and you (being the fool) shall fall for it and i will put an additional pair of holes in your throat

[icy island]

Seen my instructor do some insane stuff though
He's been doing hema for like 4 years and he uses a regenyi shiltless mini
He tried a longer blade once and said he wouldn't fight with it because "it would make him into a bad fencer"

Dude's practically using an arming sword at that point

[lapis marsh]

fiore type ego bro

[teal mural]

If we're talking egos I think Silver's got them all beat

Like that's a little later but my point stands

[lapis marsh]

proof?

[mental kelp]

Part of Liechtenauers original includes mounted fencing with the lance and such, which is the basis for the German tradition we know today

[lapis marsh]

german style is the most well recorded

[icy island]

Normie

[teal mural]

Contextualized, Silver rarely talks himself up, but he will take pages to shit on entire other styles of fencing from the Germans, Spaniards, French and Italians

[lapis marsh]

oh george silver

george silver vs fiore ego fight who wins

[teal mural]

That's the fella

[icy island]

Donald mcbane

Not because he has a huge ego but because he should have a huge ego

Also he has a gun

[lapis marsh]

who tf is donald mcbane

did he have a farm

[icy island]

Scottish guy from way later

Came out of retirement at 70 for a duel because someone challenged his honor or something like "nah you didn't really do all that"
Broke the guy's arm with a falchion, left without a scratch on him

Also his manual is an autobiography, as well as a gunnery manual

Fought in a war but kept getting kicked out of armies for stuff like sleeping with his officer's wife

Idk I don't remember very well

[dusty spear]

YAYYYY ive won for a second time

[icy island]

So mordhau is grabbing your own sword by the pointy end... Fiore has a few plays where he enters the bind and just grabs the opponent's sword by the blade

[restive barn]

rate my qote

[lapis marsh]

Based as hell

[restive barn]

"One can not move forward if they burden the weights of their past"

[lapis marsh]

I have a better one

“He who goes to bed with itchy bum
Will wake up with smelly finger”

[viscid sandal]

i think confucius said this

[icy island]

I'm just a bit biased against German fencing techniques, because the first time I tried to use one in sparring (it was a zwerchhau) I got hit in the side of the head so hard I had to buy a new mask

[restive barn]

he did NOT say "he who sleeps with an itchy bum will wake up with smelly finger"

[icy island]

That's kinda just an excuse, really I'm just biased towards fiore because it's the first somewhat formal instruction I've had...

Also frustrated with lichtenhaur because when I tried to look at his manuscripts on wiktenaur I got the weird poems that don't explain or show anything...
Fiore meanwhile, could be mostly understood by cavemen

Without any extra context

[mental kelp]

Liechtenauer is only the original and it was meant to be cryptic. But the real things to learn from before you know anything is the commentaries

Pseudo Danzig, Döbringer, Lew, etc

[icy island]

There was a German guy who followed liechtenaur that made a manuscript of mostly pictures... Can't remember how to spell his name though

Ik it also included pages depicting praying before battle, and the funeral after

[mental kelp]

There is ones by Paulus Kal and Talhoffer, but they are MOSTLY pictures, few words

[icy island]

TALHOFFER

That was it

[mental kelp]

So they, much like the original zettel, requires prior understanding mostly

[icy island]

My favorite page from talhoffer is "the vertigo spin"
It looks very silly

The way it's drawn in the version I saw at least

I also like the inclusion of the copy of bellafortis

[mental kelp]

Where is the vertigo spin at

Could it be translated in some other way do yk, I don’t look at Talhoffer too much so it’s probably something idk about

[spark plank]

deadass getting my ass kicked by the first boss

[robust crag]

how to get content creator role?

[spark plank]

like that axe man..

[robust crag]

can someone tell me how to get content craetor role?

[mental kelp]

Found it

[restive barn]

parrying dagger

[icy island]

Don't remember exactly where, it just says "the ending of the vertigo spin" it's in the grappling section, but the way its drawn it looks as though he just lifted the guy by his ankles while said guy remained bolt upright, and didn't begin losing balance until he was already like 2 feet off the ground

I don't think we were looking at the same version of the manuscript...

Archetype, first manuscript

1448 one

[ocean ore]

Maybe its not good idea, but what plan for game the makers has? niche product or world of tanks medieval with swords?

I believe that's called Chivalry 2

I also can't play brave stand or carnage because it lags too much

Well, I avoid it...

Does very slightly better in abyss but gets worse the longer you play

Diploma how many PCs were scavenged to make yours?

[tight isle]

theres no good answer but you gotta get the feel of it first before u can really get good

get ur sensitivity right

slow it down so u can learn the guards with purpose rather than just throwing shit out

[pearl ferry]

more finesse practice

[heavy hare]

how do you put your dront high guard like that?

[proper palm]

soldier is the best class to use for this

[pearl ferry]

i agree

[pearl ferry]

hold your m1 and move it slowly up until its in position

[proper palm]

i wish my pc could run cinematic so i can have realistic splatters

[pearl ferry]

if you move it too high too quick you will go into vom tag

[heavy hare]

ohh got it

the sword automatically tracks to the other fighters sword when yours is close enough, right?

ok thanks

[sleek valve]

Pretty sure he does but could be the Mandela effect or something

[remote iris]

i ont think he do

kinda weird cause id imagine someone would cough when hit really hard on the chest or something

maybe more willie noises will be added later

[sleek valve]

is it possible to take this out of context

kinda think the amount of dismemberment noises is very repetitive

always

how to reset settings

[balmy sand]

i forgot where it is but theres a file u delete to reset ur settings

i <3 using my footwork to bait an enemy into attacking

[viscid sandal]

anybody got tips on fighting the longer range weapons (pitchfork, scythe, champion longsword) as unarmed?

doing the gauntlet as a monk with max damage, got to commoner boss but can't shake him, scythe is also a pain

[restive barn]

Don't

or

set your graphics to medium and learn how to spin kick

[balmy sand]

if you were armed i'd have suggestions

with certain weapons you can force long ranged weapons to the side

[severe pollen]

That's an interesting name 😅🥲

[balmy sand]

with spears it's probably 50/50 but with scythes you can probably just brute force past the reach and start pummeling them

champion longsword though? give up

[viscid sandal]

yeah i already have the spinkick down, kicks are my workhorse

[viscid sandal]

yeah every so often he'll start geeking and i can wail on him

the commoner is crazy tho

[severe pollen]

@viscid sandal how did you get the hank hill pfp thing

It's awesome

[viscid sandal]

it was some discord promotion, had to watch the new season trailer

[balmy sand]

the only change you'd have of beating the commoner bopss unarmed

[viscid sandal]

i know right? brow mowing my pfp

[balmy sand]

is with a buckler

*change

[balmy sand]

awesome greatsword footage

i see, last time i faced him i attempted with buckler, got close but no dice

i've been able to use it for over head quick strikes

and weird parrying on the side

oh what it so looked like you did what did you do when you straightened out

[tender quest]

what time in the video?

[faint crater]

one sec

like 2.5 ish

i think im blind

[tender quest]

you mean this move?

[faint crater]

I guess it looked a little different in that initial video cause you struck the same place you did right before it. I think that's why it threw me off

Yeh

so you remember the Hellbore

[austere salmon]

the two inch bore recoiless rifle

[shell bronze]

wassup

[austere salmon]

so ye remember the Hellbore?

[shell bronze]

what about it

[austere salmon]

chainshot

three options then, wide area heavy shot, single solid shot, and spreading canister shot

[shell bronze]

atp just go rip the coyotes in half with your bare hands

[austere salmon]

nah, its more fun to make a weapon of coyote destruction

[shell forge]

Very late reply but yes. It is a guaranteed kill

[lapis marsh]

what are you, a road runner?

[austere salmon]

no they spooked my dog

wouldnt you make a weapon of mass destruction if a coyote spooked this?

[lapis marsh]

honestly major skill issue for the dog

mf got that whiteskin stare

[austere salmon]

right, im gonna set you on fire

It doesn't even look like a video game, it was so fluid

i get hit one time and im dead

by a fist btw

they like

really need to fix the grip

with a shield

[little hawk]

is the ultimate challenge just the most unfun part of the game or what

[round stone]

biblically accurate commoner boss is a fun build btw

[lapis marsh]

kinda yeah

[young saffron]

jeez, that's a massive willie

[nimble oasis]

lol, they gave me to play fists against naked, no mods

[soft osprey]

Interesting interesting.. have you tried not getting hit?
But fr where you get hit is an important factor

[nimble oasis]

lol

[young saffron]

willie what was this (also I'm so sad I didn't get a clean head explosion on wille)

[weary fossil]

never before have i died simply by being hit in the head with a fist like not unconcious straight up death

[soft osprey]

So it happened one time and Thats enough for you to say change the health system?

[nimble oasis]

lol, game obviously thinks that i am naked

[lapis marsh]

it do that sometime

[weary fossil]

not the first time.. another time i got stabbed in the leg with a dagger and died in 1 second

there are a lot more

[lapis marsh]

tbf if you got stabbed in the leg it would hurt a lot

[weary fossil]

enough to die?

[lapis marsh]

this is not a game where you can just tank hits

one good strike is usually game ending

[soft osprey]

Yes, obviously lol there are arteries in your leg

[weary fossil]

to the leg a strike cannot possibly kill you in 1 second

[soft osprey]

Bros never been stabbed in the leg and it shows

[shell bronze]

bro when his femoral artery gets clipped

[lapis marsh]

you'd be immobilised and very open to a follow up

so basically dead

[shell bronze]

just turn player damage down if you want main character mode

[weary fossil]

let me ask you again how does a stab in the leg kill you for 1 second

ur whole argument is that there are arteries in the legs

[weary fossil]

ok there are yes but you cannot die in 1 second by being stabbed

[lapis marsh]

the problem is less getting stabbed in the leg kills you and more you got stabbed in the first tplace

[young saffron]

how do you make willie so big

[shell bronze]

the way the loss condition works in the game is not just instant death but also being wounded beyond the point of even lifting a finger again

aka inevitable death

[soft osprey]

You also didnt die in one second. Even on death screen you can hear Willie scream. It’s game over

You will be dying shortly

[shell bronze]

hence why enemies "die" but they're still doing that death scream/moaning sound effect

[little hawk]

a sword droppng on my leg from cutting their arm off kills me

[shell bronze]

just turn player damage down man.

[weary fossil]

you can still fighteven when you break your legs btw

has happened to me in the game

[lapis marsh]

well yeah but you're not bleeding out

[shell bronze]

break or slice open

pick one

[weary fossil]

are u ddumb?

[lapis marsh]

breaking someone's bone does not always lead to bleeding

[weary fossil]

really? didnt know that

[weary fossil]

actually it does

internal bleeding

[lapis marsh]

bruising, most likely, but arteries are usually intact

[soft osprey]

Plausible with human body and adrenaline, not likely but not impossible. And id like to remind you Youre playing a video game. A pre alpha at that

[lapis marsh]

its not garunteed

plenty of people survive broken legs

[weary fossil]

a bruise is internal bleeding

[weary fossil]

dude what i never said people havent??

its obvious people can survive broken legs

[shell bronze]

when the game simulates a more realistic damage system that resembles what it's like when a regular man gets sliced open with a weapon of war 😱😱😱

[lapis marsh]

in literal terms yes but im fairly certain they're different in medical terms

im not a doctor so i dont quite know the difference

lemme google actually

[weary fossil]

its not realistic to die from being stabbed in the leg by a dagger.. the knee to be exact

if you have been stabbed in 30 other places yes

in 1 second

on top of that

[soft osprey]

Already explained you didnt die in one second, it’s just game over for you. Just like when Willie is lying on the bloody floor screaming. He is as good as dead. He cannot go on

[weary fossil]

and on top of that i didnt know that the game over screen is just u not being able to continue

[soft osprey]

So your whole argument is mute because it’s that you die in one second. Which you do not

[weary fossil]

my apologies for my mistake

[shell bronze]

we just went over this

[lapis marsh]

ok so internal bleeding is just more serious bruising

[weary fossil]

"we" is only sir moai of easter

you havent even said anything about that

[soft osprey]

That’s right, I am the best and smarterest

[shell bronze]

when i'm debating and my opponent dont read

but i suppose we can drop this now that it's settled

[weary fossil]

do you really expect me to read everything from 3 people at once?

[shell bronze]

when you're trying to argue with 3 people at once yes

[sleek gull]

3? rookie numbers.

[weary fossil]

my pc is too bad for the gameplay to be that smooth lowkey

[lapis marsh]

ive argued with more honestly

[lapis marsh]

plus the game is not well optimised

[weary fossil]

i mean i can just lower my res and call it a day but that just makes me become a blind man

[sleek gull]

I was forged in aol instant messager, message boards, forums, and IRC. My thirst for arguing with people on the internet knows no bounds!

[shell bronze]

early access should optimize it soon

[lapis marsh]

people have been arguing like this ever since one guy decided his god was better than the other guy's god

[sleek gull]

well before that even = D

[shell bronze]

forum arguing is my god-given right

[sleek gull]

Cheers!

[shell bronze]

love stirring shit on imageboard and forums

(i am always right)

[lapis marsh]

not if i have my poleaxe

[weary fossil]

tho i still dont know how i got the game oer by a stab in my knee

[lapis marsh]

eh specifics dont matter too much. most important thing is learning so it doesnt happen again

[shell bronze]

stabbing damage is extremely potent in this game

even i think it's overtuned if it's not against vital spots but you just gotta live with it

[weary fossil]

then i gotta learn to stop using my favourite technique
dual hand the sword and get it over the opponents head then slide it down and pull back...

[shell bronze]

you can still do that

[lapis marsh]

its balanced by the incredibly clunky stabbing mechanics

[shell bronze]

just not against certain opponents/with certain loadouts

[lapis marsh]

you can still do that! you just need to be more careful about it

[sleek gull]

I didnt mean to kill him, I was just recentering lol.

[shell forge]

Can willies be paralyzed from the neck down? Cuz i have a guy that's completely limp but he keeps going "Mercy my sire!"

[lapis marsh]

he tired

[shell bronze]

he tired

[tender quest]

bro thought he could escape me

[austere salmon]

hey clue, tommy gave me another good ammo idea

[shell bronze]

wassup

[austere salmon]

so yknow 12 gauge coinshot right

[shell bronze]

yeah

[austere salmon]

what if we scaled that up to two inch bore

[lapis marsh]

ten centimetre bore

[shell bronze]

great idea

[austere salmon]

i dont speak metric

[shell bronze]

honestly man why not just buy an 870 and get it over with

[austere salmon]

not nearly as entertaining

besides, why learn blacksmithy if i dont plan to do anything fun with it

[shell bronze]

i have an 870 and a mossberg

one under da bed the other one in the closet

great things to have

Hi

Hi

Green lantern and darkseid

[young saffron]

poor lad

[calm basalt]

He also has no willie...

Figured that out cause I died and won at the exact same time and spawned into the next match naked...

[mortal estuary]

how many hours u guys got to be so good at controlling the weapons and movement??

[small tartan]

i got used pretty fast tbh

try learning with the big axe

[calm basalt]

It takes a lot of getting used to depending on your mouse settings but remembering the distance from center each guard position is is the tough part

[small tartan]

tbh i play on pretty low sensitivity so i have good control

[calm basalt]

High sensitivity makes the guard changing zone of your mouse tiny....

[mortal estuary]

yea i lowered my sens way down

like 1/5th the slider

u guys are like parrying and stuff thats awesome

[calm basalt]

I have it maxed out to get quick and satisfying snap cuts

Zornhau parry into the throat is basically porn for this game

[mortal estuary]

the most i can do rn is use the half swording grip to get close and block

[mortal estuary]

that sounds sick

i spent all day today beating the baron challenge

the rng is so rough

[calm basalt]

If you wanna learn parrying, stay in center guard (just click and hold the mouse still) and toggle slowmo with f, it'll help you learn the positions to get your sword into to block and counter

[mortal estuary]

mainly the armor rng

[calm basalt]

Also maxed lock on strength will help at first

[mortal estuary]

ill do a couple of speedrun attempts every day to practice

yea max lock rly helps

[calm basalt]

Freemode commoner fights are good too

Just get a longsword
