I understand that it’s just they should’ve let the community know more than the exact moment. It was supposed to come out as they knew, the game would not be ready. Once again, I have no problem with them delaying it because I’d rather see a good quality game than a cyberpunk incident again. Just wish they had better communication with their fan base.

Something I haven’t heard people say is how important positioning is for parrying. The further you are, the less you have to move your weapon to parry. Strafing left or right can give you more time to react and position your blade better

It’s no exanima footwork

One thing that took me a long while to figure out, was that you can really work with the center line.
Something as simple as changing which leg is leading can open up a lot of possibilities.
sturdy jolt
Yeah I can do that, your body still seems to have the same level of movement. It does look better
sleek gull
Its less about the look, it is your attack angles and range. With the right leg forward, you gain a slight measure advantage. Where if you left leg is forward, you have more of a defensive, and poised to dodge advantage.

Kinda real
But i do like the random
If it wasn't random i wouldn't use nearly as many different weapons
Maybe if it was just a random option plus a loadout selector

I just hate having to spend 5 minutes clicking until it lands on the one hammer i enjoy using, lol

Ultimate challenge feels very different than the main gauntlet
My limbs don't work normally

Yeah i agree with you there.
I cant get the same swings I can in freemode in the gauntlet mode, dunno what it is.

I actually agree with myself too

I've been meaning to ask the devs about this because it seems so obvious
Just to make sure I'm not going crazy

im just raging because i cant get past the first few waves without having a limb be scratched and entirely put out of action
im playing a sickly, frail willie

Has anyone else had the game crash whenever they are through the third wave on the final challenge?

man i can't wait for head exploding to be back in. made blunt weapons so so satisfying
languid gulch
im waiting for the day that we get a little attack direction indicator or something
my one issue is never attacking straight, if I swing down itll always go to the left or something
languid gulch
happens with most of them but mostly polearms and swords
misty gazelle
cause your willies arm orientation will kinda screw with a perfect downward swing.
if you do a little backstep and pull down, it'll straighten that cut.
that and a vom tag guard to draw from, keep it up there.
placid coyote
how do you get hits like that
misty gazelle
misty gazelle
how do you get hits like that
Sidestep with a downward swing, slightly to an angle
placid coyote
whenever I swing hammers and stuff it feels weak
like my hits feel like they have no power behind them
misty gazelle
yeah, you gotta power them with movement
try sidestepping in tandem with your swings
Also give your weapon room to gain momentum
think of it like a baseball bat swing.
placid coyote
thanks
misty gazelle
they're not like swords where you can wiggle the point and kill the dude infront of you, lol
mortal auroraBOT
misty gazelle
just gotta get that full swing and willies head turns into ground beef.
placid coyote

i dont really use swords all that much anyway
misty gazelle
i still like using them a lot
placid coyote
I find it hard to parry
misty gazelle
you gotta kinda trust the 'auto parry' for what its worth
but, positioning into a good guard, like an ox guard or plow can help a lot
placid coyote
I think the auto parry positions his arms a little
i dont know much about medival martial arts
misty gazelle
Watch a couple vids on them! You can pull off some basic stuff in the game and it works well

I've seen people parry by angling their swords in a way to parry high left and right swings

need to get on your level fr. My guy holds the sword like he's got arms made of wet noodles and the swords weight 200 lbs

you'll get there!
Just keep in mind that footwork will help a LOT giving your swings power.

The farmers axe is probably one of the best weapons in the game

A well placed hit will chop people in two

I did the full gauntlet with the hoe the other day

The npcs just point the pointy end at me
And I can't get in
misty gazelle
Batter the weapons on the approach
mild zinc
I see
misty gazelle
You can kinda fish the weapon out of the way too
uploading a vid
Plancons can be easily dealt with halfswording your weapon
You can goad them into an overhead swing and catch it with your own weapon
the spikes kinda trap themselves on your own weapon
mild zinc
What if I'm in ultimate challenge and the peasant uses a pitchfork?
mild zinc
what weapon are you using?
When you start off, none(unless I'm stupid)
whole marsh
When you start off, none(unless I'm stupid)
you get a knife

Ohhh that, well. A lot of it will just come down to weaving past the point, wait for them to retract or falter a bit before moving in past it.

holding the spear up as much as you can will help a lot, will need to sidestep to help guide it straight.

but must be a rare thing and you have to hit really really hard
