I’m dying for early access

[round stone]

I can barely hold it together

[buoyant ravine]

Half Sword

[buoyant ravine]

hold up did the 2nd guy who died break his neck from falling

also the 3rd guy who died how did his head come off despite chooping his thigh?

[shell bronze]

instead of working to earn a living i could be playing half sword 18 hours a day

why must god forsake me

[lean sleet]

Hello, I am new to discord community. I don't know if someone already metioned this topic, but what is going on with fatal erors? I have high end pc, doesn't seem to be the problem on my side :3

[shell bronze]

blood

cause crash

[covert flare]

there is something off with my halfsword guys

[shell bronze]

play dx11 in addition for less likely crash

[hasty bloom]

“eh clips” bro looks like he Tron’d himself into halfsword to play fr 😭 these were so killer

[lean sleet]

ok, and maybe turn on lowest dmg visuals?

[covert flare]

gore doesnt affect it

[shell bronze]

gore is fine

[shell bronze]

pinkle is one of our resident goats

[lean sleet]

Ok I will try, is there going to be any fixing soon maybe?

[shell bronze]

perfection is the name of the game for us

[shell bronze]

early access will fix

[lean sleet]

Ok thank you very much, hope early access will start soon

[lean sleet]

Jesus, now I can't even start the game without crash

[shell bronze]

dx11 or 12

[lean sleet]

I have to reinstall

Can't get to main screen

[shell bronze]

oh rip

at least game isn't heavy

[lean sleet]

Naaah

Did full ultra no problem

Luckily 2.4gb over in 30sec

[small glen]

call me crazy, since i like polearms

not a huge fan of poleaxes

besides the tiny ones

[lean sleet]

Actualy reinstall didn't help

Can't even play anymore

[small glen]

you using..

an axe?!

[tender quest]

its just an odd shaped greatsword if you think about it

[small glen]

greatsword?! no pookie

its death on a stick

that also weighs like

2 pounds but feels like its 400

[round stone]

Dayumn, as he fell, the sword cut deeper

[covert flare]

there are solutions for this i forgot what command was it

[covert flare]

militus do you know how to fix the crash on startup bug?

[small glen]

Militus, send me your best bullying Mace willie clip

[shell bronze]

militus diversifying his portfolio

[small glen]

yeah fr

axes?

[lean sleet]

I don't know why I can't run compatibility mode

[small glen]

unarmored?

[tender quest]

might have to go into the appdata folder and delete the game files there aswell

[small glen]

bro is being colorful

[shell bronze]

he is starting to believe

[lean sleet]

Will try

[shell bronze]

this is what it takes to be an apex player

mastery of all conventional weaponry

[covert flare]

also, check file integrity before loading it up again

[shell bronze]

he made it to hs7 off of the greatsword alone

[small glen]

use the high tier two handed axe

and have fun with that

it can blunt suuuper well

[shell bronze]

that thing is cheating

it's like the baron's mace with added bullshit flesh tearing ability

[small glen]

funny thing is

when testing it out

i learned that its weaker than the low tier axe, but the high tier axe has more sharp points

[round stone]

Well, well, well, look who can't wield the Plankton now.

[fossil isle]

YO IM TIRED OF BARONN

FUCKKK

I can't beat ts

[round stone]

we all lowered damage to character to min for that

and/or maxing damage to npc

[fossil isle]

but if I did so....

I'd be a cheater.

[lean sleet]

Sorry for bothering but it seems I can't find this at all

crap can't post pics

Delete the SaveGames folder: Navigate to %appdata%\Local\HalfSwordUE5\Saved in the Windows search bar and delete the SaveGames folder. The game will regenerate it on restart.

this crap

nowhere to be found

And I have verified files already

[round stone]

You're getting jumped by 20 dudes 🥀

If there's someone who's cheating it'd be them from the very start

Putting you all naked and unarmed in the middle of the arena

[fossil isle]

how is thep itchfork heavy

but not so heavy

I swear it takes a lot of energy to swing but it doesn't do any blunt damage

[round stone]

See?

Everything is against you

Until some things like that get optimized...

There's no shame on changing the damage

[minor wigeon]

is there a date yet?

[solemn holly]

q4 2025

[round stone]

My guess is November 28th

[solemn holly]

if there was an exact date it'd be listed on steam and probably posted in #announcements

[minor wigeon]

you're so right lmao

idk why i didnt just check that

[fossil isle]

HOW DID HE BREAK ALL MY LIMBS

BY JUST RUNNING INTO ME

[minor wigeon]

human brick method

[lean sleet]

fixed the game...

[shell bronze]

just accept thy fate little one

[hasty venture]

release date yet?

[shell bronze]

no

[restive garnet]

Might as well be december 30th

Not confirmed by me

[warped apex]

galaxy will this stuff be possible in the new update

[hasty jetty]

Wrong

It's November 13th

I know it

[warped apex]

I thought I heard something about a throwing button

[hasty jetty]

Or at least the annoucement

[minor wigeon]

freakin epic

anyway

sword clashing is so sweet

i love greatswords

[restive garnet]

Not confirmed by me

[minor wigeon]

indubitably

but a cool estimate fr

[restive garnet]

[restive garnet]

Ofcc and more

[signal wedge]

maybe even December 31st?

[minor wigeon]

atp lets shoot for new years

[restive garnet]

HS ea announced with a firework

[lost bison]

hey gang so does the Center crosshair setting do nothing at all?

[restive garnet]

Nopes

[spring trench]

Does half sword only have a demo?

Im to lazy to look rn

[restive garnet]

Yes for now

[spring trench]

Ok 👍

[lost bison]

should be more within ~ 1 month

[minor wigeon]

i think it would be funny if the groin area was a weakspot if kicked

like nothing crazy like making you ragdoll or anything but making your screen blurry for a second or two

[hollow delta]

UHHH WTF?

i just saw an item glow a really bright blue and then teleport over to my left????

[minor wigeon]

ufo

[lost bison]

magic DLC?

[hollow delta]

200 hours and ive never seen or heard of that happening before

[lost bison]

I aint never got done so dirty before

[hollow delta]

almost got a pic of it in the picture mode, but it continued to fade away even when i paused the game ot go into the picture mode

[lost bison]

Split me like a log

[restive garnet]

You'd be surprised what the game lore is

[hollow delta]

for reference i have zero mods so its pure vanilla game

[hollow delta]

i mean it felt more like an item was just considered out of bounds and just tpd back into the arena even tho it was already there?

then again ive had plenty of times where items fly out and they really never return lol

[minor wigeon]

i had my abyss run ended by a flying hammer so

anything is possible

[modern venture]

Pmo

When this game releasing

[minor wigeon]

probably late dec

or early jan

[real holly]

any one got any buckler clips i feel like it is a very useless weapon

[modern venture]

How much should the game cost full price?

[real holly]

29.99

[modern venture]

Out of my budget

[minor wigeon]

dude, i love disarming and weaseling into weak spots with great swords

[real holly]

1.2 macro cents

[modern venture]

I can do 1.1 macro cents

[hollow delta]

also hey thanks for ur contribution to the game this games awesome and i cant wait for full release :D

[lost bison]

Mouse acceleration does very interesting things in this game

[restive garnet]

Appreciate it 😁

[bronze sedge]

y'all may disagree on this one but the mace with the tiny iron on top that usually appears after the axe dude is actually underrated and is probably one of the best weapons in the game

another one as well is the pitchfork, but most players just hate on this one

[lost bison]

got a screenshot? i wanna try it

is it the little tiny round one?

[minor wigeon]

fr, genuinely addicting

[bronze sedge]

there's a longer version you hold with both arms

[minor wigeon]

i love drawn out fully armored fights

[wheat leaf]

Mace is op. Pitchfork is gold standard stabbing

[bronze sedge]

the spear ones are one good if you got the opponent in the right spot, I've been screwing up those weapons recently

[lost bison]

this one?

[real holly]

i think he is talking about the longer one

[bronze sedge]

yes

[minor wigeon]

the maces arereally good

[lost bison]

imma give it a whir

[wheat leaf]

Happens, stabbing tricky in this game

Maces tend to be kinda floppy too, as good a damage as they do

[bronze sedge]

one time I think I got like 3-4 dudes down with the pitchfork

probably my best run with the weapon

[minor wigeon]

have you ever taken it in abyss and just ran in a straight line?

[twilit escarp]

willie accidentally opened the fucking ark of the covenant

[minor wigeon]

skewering willy

oh my

[bronze sedge]

at first I'd just run and not even move the pitchfork, kinda work iit at first

[inland pond]

[split crescent]

All my minnesotans in chat, northern lights are gonna be real vibrant tonight

[violet drum]

Hey fam

Fresh here, long time player and fan of the design.

Thank you 🙂

Also, silly

I agree, that little mace can bust your kidneys with a tap

[bronze sedge]

what happening in Minnesota bruh

[bronze sedge]

that's what I'm saying, it takes two to three hits and it's over

[violet drum]

Oh ive been getting one tapped in my recent games… its probably a bug but the physics on it’s inertia are definitely overtuned a bit lol

Likely some fall off error

On another note im glad the spike bat got nerfed

[bronze sedge]

I've beat the scythe boss twice with the mace, somehow it works

[violet drum]

Damn lol

I usually just run in and grab his ass cause he too scary

Maybe ill toss a mace at him instead lol

[twilit escarp]

he'll be alright, these injuries are totally reversible

[bronze sedge]

just don't give him space to swing the scythe, that's usually what I do

stay as close as possible at all times

[violet drum]

Yeah he’s dangerous

[minor wigeon]

he usually bisects me if i do that

i swear 90% of that fight is luck sometimes

[bronze sedge]

nah cuz it's such a long weapon

[minor wigeon]

you'd be surprised

[bronze sedge]

the closer you're the less space he will have to swing it

but it's also the sharpest weapon in the game so even if you barely touch it it's over

[violet drum]

I have a question, did a quick announcement review and didnt see anything but: Are devs planning a sort of conquest campaign mode or anything?

Im imagining starting as a farmer who’s home is ravaged by an army but you adventure to eventually fight kings and take their spot: as an example

[bronze sedge]

everytime they drop new updates (at least on their Steam community) they usually drop some lore of it. a story mode would be interesting

[real holly]

willys wild world?

[twilit escarp]

what magic users would actually look like in the medieval period

power word scrunch

[bronze sedge]

the HalfSword lore is actually gass tho

I recommed y'all reading trhough their Steam page

[violet drum]

Lol

[lost bison]

the auto parry bs makes me so frustrated

[violet drum]

Imma write up an idea in threads

[twilit escarp]

beggar boss is easy

[wheat leaf]

London:

[twilit escarp]

here's france

[wheat leaf]

Real 😭

[haughty basin]

decided to try the demo, its pretty awesome. is there a rule to how enemies spawn in the abyss?

[simple vale]

cryptid beast and its cryptid powers

[haughty basin]

i usually get one or two and then the scythe guy never spawns, leaving me stuck?

[spring trench]

how do you guys have such good graphics 😭

[lost bison]

I like the spikey one best

[wheat leaf]

It progresses further and further, you only fight him once

[haughty basin]

then, whatever boss im supposed to find here

just wont spawn?

[wheat leaf]

Are you running straight or zigzag

[haughty basin]

circles?

[wheat leaf]

Cuh

[haughty basin]

how should i be?

[simple vale]

commoner axe wielder spawns at 200 score after about 4-5 peasants defeated

[simple vale]

just walk forward to load new segments
walking circles around ares you've loaded already wont spawn anything new

[haughty basin]

oh!

yep just found and decapitated scythe guy

that makes a lot of sense, i thought i was supposed to stick to lit areas

[wheat leaf]

I’ve never heard of running in circles before your bonkers

Run straight lmao

You’ll always get loot and enemies in front of you

[haughty basin]

i thought the loot areas were random

in the predefined arena

[wheat leaf]

Kinda, but the area infinitely generates

As far as I’m aware

[marsh sandal]

Although we are on the verge of getting the game, I wonder if the release date will be revealed soon

[haughty basin]

i found a wall earlier

[simple vale]

fences spawn to prevent you from just walking away from bosses

[twilit escarp]

legendary move: singularity spear

[haughty basin]

ive also been super enjoying using the greatsword as knight, though most people seem to not like it?

lockon is awful though, i have no idea how it works and it sucks

[lost bison]

Greatsword is very different to control than all other swords

you have to get used to it but once you do

[haughty basin]

tbh ive mostly been using it in halfsword-mode as a grapple/stab/bash

gotta peel into the hostile tin cans

[simple vale]

i find it fun
but it is kinda bad since with armor it kinda devolves into a bludgeoning weapon, which theres much better weapons for that in knight tier

also you can turn the lock on % down in settings

[haughty basin]

i want the lockon to just be whatever enemy is physically closest to me

the Z lock/relock seems to not work basically at all?

or it will pick some guy in a far corner

[simple vale]

i personally have lockon completely disabled
i just found it a little annoying

[haughty basin]

i think im too stupid for the poleaxes to work for me

too slow, need head contact or it does literally nothing

[buoyant ravine]

or you could just press Z to toggle it on and off

[shell bronze]

it's just the nature of blunt damage against armor in this game rn

does fuckall outside of headshots

[haughty basin]

but like, if i just halfsword the greatsword and grab someone i can keep them from swinging and eventually get something done

[junior osprey]

Need some help. I’ve been trying to run half sword but it automatically crashes, telling me that there was a fatal error. I haven’t had issues in the past and this all started yesterday.

[buoyant ravine]

your armored fists are a better weapon than the sword if your gonna use it as a knight going against other knights

[shell bronze]

[soft osprey]

Right click halfsword in your steam library, press properties. Then inside General there’s a line for Launch Options. In there type in: -dx11

Let me know if it works

[junior osprey]

Yes thanks a ton!

[haughty basin]

commoner fights with a longsword are probally the funnest in the game

[buoyant ravine]

dx12 makes the graphics worse and eats my fps for breakfast. dx11 will always remain the best directx

Half sword thrust into his gambeson is always a 1 hit for me, just a matter of avoiding his first strike or beating to the punch

[humble iris]

speedy boy

[buoyant ravine]

ok bro i just checkmated myself

DAMNIT I DID IT AGAIN

[humble iris]

plow guard is peak

[buoyant ravine]

MOTHERFUCKER! I JUMPED INTO IT!

[haughty basin]

is there a way to actually aim above the waist while stabbing?

[soft drift]

whatever this thing is is so fucking good

[haughty basin]

honestly the idea to mix physics jank and a roguelike was terrible

[lucid sonnet]

does anyone want to be friends i Am playing half sword

[soft drift]

yes

look up more

[haughty basin]

the sensitivity while looking up is for some reason, comically low

as in, drag my mouse all the way off the pad for 5 degrees

[round stone]

Shield user of the day, gone

[soft drift]

yeah thats so you can swing swords up and down without having to worry about flinging your camera too far

[haughty basin]

i also cant swing swords up and down to save my life

[soft drift]

if you're holding left or right click your sensitivity is lowered

[soft drift]

takes some practice

im not very good at it myself

[haughty basin]

"takes some practice"

why?

[soft drift]

the entire game takes practice to be good at😭

[lucid sonnet]

does anyone want to be freinds

[haughty basin]

eh

i dont know, great demo but just not for me

[inner pond]

hi

[haughty basin]

i dont really see the potential in the full game either. trying to mix a goofy physics combat system with serious mechanics is rough

[inner pond]

wheres faq?

[haughty basin]

~~the game also runs comically badly with more than 3 combatants ~~

[soft drift]

thats just ue5

ue5 has shit optimization

[haughty basin]

"we used the bad engine as a joke"

[soft drift]

why are you so overly negative

😭

[haughty basin]

im not wrong about the game not running well

im not wrong about lockon being awful to use

[soft drift]

yeah but you dont need to be a prick about it either

just turn down your settings

its a demo

[regal stump]

its not even that bad 😭

[inner pond]

are any of these new maps out or can we only play in the arena

[soft drift]

ive had no problem with it

[haughty basin]

the fullgame never runs better than the demo

cure yourself of hubris

[soft drift]

full game isnt out im not that concerned

its just a demo

[regal stump]

why are you so mad bro 💀

[haughty basin]

like, for 1v1s the game works shockingly well

[soft drift]

he lost to a plancon

kidding

idk why

[haughty basin]

you introduce more than that and the flaws show

[soft drift]

good thing you can choose to only do 1v1s

the game doesnt force you to do anything other than 1v1s unless you go to the abyss

[haughty basin]

correct, its a shame doing 1v1s is entirely suboptimal

[soft drift]

or the ultimate challenge but thats different too

[soft drift]

why?

you do not need to min/max halfsword

[haughty basin]

i think the carnage matches are easier than 1v1s since its just a game of stabbing two guys in the back and then fighting the third guy who is halfway stabbed to death

[soft drift]

good job figuring that out einstein thats medieval combat

[haughty basin]

the progression path is difficult enough you pretty much have to

[soft drift]

not really

past militia it gets really easy

[haughty basin]

if you dont grab plancon thats not true

[soft drift]

and how long have you been playing

[haughty basin]

8ish hours

[soft drift]

if you choose to just rely on the crutch and not learn anything new then yeah it will seem like that

[soft drift]

this is arguably better than the plancon

it has range and weight

and a sharp pokey end

[haughty basin]

range weight and a sharp pokey end? literally plancon

i joke

[cerulean needle]

I've made it a habit to use every weapon at some point, my most effective is long glaive with using alternating grips for momentum

[soft drift]

its good to learn

[haughty basin]

ive gotten decent as pesant tier longsword gaming, but i still get got seemingly at random 1 in 10ish times

[soft drift]

commoner tier is probably the hardest since everything is so lethal with little protection

but after that

shit its smooth sailing

[haughty basin]

frontloading the most difficult tier is mad funny

[modern venture]

🏳️‍🌈

[round stone]

Perhaps I was too harsh on that polearm user

[soft drift]

do you want to be given armor at commoner tier

This wait is taking too long

[naive holly]

Hi sam

[elfin plover]

I got my foot lobbed off after I hit a guy in the throat.
Game said I won.

Guess that means I got.. The upper hand.... foot. err.. nvm

[wheat leaf]

i eventually pulled off that move properly

[boreal path]

PEAK !!!!!!!!!

im proud !

very clean

[wheat leaf]

thank u thank u

its a fun move, great opener for different combo's

[split crescent]

halberd best weapon ever

[elfin plover]

I've been trying to get better at upward diagonals. I can never seem to get 'em right though. Well done >:3

[elfin plover]

[wheat leaf]

it took me a fair number of tries lol, i still struggle

[elfin plover]

I've been trying to find a good longsword to main, but I can't seem to find one I'm super comfy with

[wheat leaf]

get the halfsword enhancer mod, lets you spawn them by type and try each variant

[elfin plover]

oooo oki doki.
I've only had the selector mod. I'll give that a go

[soft drift]

its a halberd?

[boreal path]

right !

[boreal path]

yes

[boreal path]

if the enemy is in the right.. mood... you can get some cool binds and stuff

[signal wedge]

did you know Uranus has rings too

i wanna make videos on this game but idk what id record and also my game looks buns cause pc buns

[boreal path]

[wheat leaf]

might be hard to see he hit my sword directly on the tip

[soft drift]

that one dude a while back with the plancon

whatever he called it before he got banned

[boreal path]

idek where we got "plancon a picot" from

i dont think it shows up in any source with visual corroberation

i would just call it a goedendag

plancon literally just means "plank"

probably doesnt mean anything in period to any kind of codified measure

[weak osprey]

[subtle linden]

It wouldn't be the 13th, they likely aren't gonna release it before the livestream on the 15th

[forest ravine]

Hahaha well

I'm like

PRETTY uh-

pretty sure yeah haha 💦

[weak osprey]

If they release it on 13 we will be cursed

[forest ravine]

There it is

The proof

[sturdy jolt]

I'll take a curse for it to be released on the 13th

[weak osprey]

brave man

[forest ravine]

I do not have enough money for rent but I WILL have enough money for this game if I have to sell an organ to buy it

You know what? If you want proof, I've got the proof right here

Homemade spring rolls and homemade peanut sauce

Can't get more verified-correct than that

[sturdy jolt]

Oh I guess it really does release tomorrow

[weak osprey]

spring roll dongs taste delicious

[forest ravine]

They came out super well

I was really nervous because I never made them before but they are shockingly easy

[sturdy jolt]

No it's relevant, it's the proof that the update releases tomorrow

Nope, just before the end of the year

[edgy eagle]

thats good

[sturdy jolt]

There's a stream on the 15th, maybe that could give more info on when exactly it might release. All we know is that there won't be an announcement on when it releases, it'll just release without warning

git gud

[subtle linden]

this is the second time i have said stfu

[weak osprey]

keeper goin

[subtle linden]

any real tips?

[weak osprey]

All u gotta do to block is to just hold your weap infront of someone,

[subtle linden]

that asnt worked so far

[weak osprey]

Or hold your weap where the wep is goin

idk cuh I usually dont block I just parry

[subtle linden]

then how do you parry

[hallow gull]

hit weapon

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1043854764095582260/1437789135476887562/thinking_will.gif

[weak osprey]

block then hit wep

[weak osprey]

see? This guy knows

[hallow gull]

works best against spears

[subtle linden]

bruh im neverasking for help from this dsc again

[weak osprey]

all u gotta do with a spear is jus thrust

[hallow gull]

what do you want us to tell you

[weak osprey]

the best way to do it is to anticipate their attacks

when they strike learn to move your weapon directly against that weapon

Now untangle that wep and strike quickly

Boom u got a parry

[subtle linden]

thank you

[weak osprey]

It takes real practice to master sometimes

but trus me u will lowk become a sword master once u fully learn it

[hallow gull]

or just go spinjitsu mode on them

[weak osprey]

based

or just use your head lowk

[hallow gull]

beat them to smithereens with the weapons god gave you

(your fists)

[weak osprey]

why learn the way of the sword when you can learn the way of the body

(Aka using ur ass, head, arms, and legs)

Its just pure monkey action

[obtuse tiger]

Long candel stick most op weapon in the game

[weak osprey]

willie’s big hairy foot is the most op

[obtuse tiger]

And knocked the helmet out

[warped apex]

[weak osprey]

what a pussy

[obtuse tiger]

U sure now???

30 secs with stick how long with foot?

[weak osprey]

Idk try it out, usually one hit with foot and your enemy surrenders or dies

[obtuse tiger]

What fucking foot are you using even spin kick wouldnt do that😭

[sturdy jolt]

Not against the baron. It isn't super effective against armor

You need like multiple perfect full power spin kicks to the face for baron

[obtuse tiger]

take longer than 30 secs aswell so candel stick solos every class so best weapon

[weak osprey]

will prolly try

[weak osprey]

but I swear cuh I saw someone spin kick someone’s head even with armor and they died

[obtuse tiger]

Halfsword enhancer strength boost maybe?

[weak osprey]

maybe maybe

[sturdy jolt]

Yeah it works if you kick their head

[weak osprey]

ah yes

[obtuse tiger]

That was first try btw so that just means candel most OP

[weak osprey]

I will finally agree

in the game

[weak osprey]

Spinkicking is where u just need skill, candle better

[obtuse tiger]

Icl I dont see my self using the cross bow much

[sturdy jolt]

I try to avoid using candlestick, it makes abyss too easy
