[cunning nebula]

"I bet youre wondering how I ended up in this situation"

[rare hearth]

its the character from deltarune

[hidden schooner]

[small glen]

this isn't in the main game

we have something super similar

but its not this one

[jade wadi]

Greetings! Anyone knows why after a while Willie will be crouching on his own?

[plain token]

[hidden schooner]

Weird. Maybe updated

[jade wadi]

My Willie I mean

[jade wadi]

Which means?

[small glen]

this spear is also not in the main game

[plain token]

learn english?

[small glen]

and once more that gambeson is visible

[jade wadi]

Because sometimes it will happen in the start of a fight, just by maintaining my stance

[hidden schooner]

Yes it is

[small glen]

i think this gambeson

is a high tier gambeson

[small glen]

it is?

[plain token]

ur control key is pressed

[hidden schooner]

Yes.

[jade wadi]

It's not though, I've tested my keyboard and it's in excellent condition.

[small glen]

thats replacing the gambeson that is already featured in higher tiers

[plain token]

well then there's no reason

[jade wadi]

It will start happening after a while when I'm playing free mode and I have to restart the game for it to stop.

[hidden schooner]

Easy to find in militia tier

[merry ibex]

hey is there a way to do the progressive gauntlet for half sword where the enemies increase in difficlty with you, im tring to play the demo again becasue it was really fun but it keeps making me fight the knights when im a peasent lol

Did you find it?

[plain token]

i think it's a little bit different

[jade wadi]

Also one time before I restart the game, I noticed that if me or another willie would pass by a specific spot in the arena, we would crouch and if we stayed there we would fall down to the floor.

[small glen]

not on rn

but

another thing i noticed is the body types

yo is there a way to reset the gauntlet mode after getting to the baron?

[plain token]

win it noob

[sick vortex]

my pc can't handle more than 3 enemies

[small glen]

well i have a game theory, idk.

this map mentions like bandits, this map could be for like bigger fights

because it mentions a bandit camp

[small glen]

so like.. 5 person carnage?

[plain token]

perhaps

We know of 5v5

[dusk shuttle]

dang I didn't know you could flick helmets off if you get a sword underneath that's really cool

[plain token]

cool shield

[small glen]

HRE shield

[plain token]

yeah i guessed

[dusk shuttle]

I did this against a fully armored knight and just got my short sword underneath the lid and it popped right off

[plain token]

wtf is this in the back 😭

[rich bridge]

are there any tips for getting proper headshots? this has been my struggle, like my issue is how my dude is readying his sword, so that when i try to bring it up higher so i can do like a slash towards the head, he readies it for a diagonal or horizontal instead

so its like i try to get headshots in but it wants to glide a different way so the swing comes out wrong

[fierce umbra]

yeah thats just up to your hand coordination

nothing you can do much about it

[small glen]

they are replacing the flags with what i think are more accurate military flags

[fierce umbra]

you could try playing around with your sensitivity but it still comes down to your hands

[plain token]

or just removing bavaria

[rich bridge]

so i am moving my mouse wrong?

just to make sure

[fierce umbra]

probably

all my slashes are fine most of the time

[plain token]

wait nvm

just wrong angle

nothing changed

[dusk shuttle]

i feel like it would be really cool to see the random items you can pick up in abyss have a practical use. Like

I wanna be able to use a basket lid as a shield

[rich bridge]

well its not like in general my slashes are bad, its just trying to aim for the head im struggling with bc of the angle my weapon would be held in. although im messing w it rn, i could be wrong but maybe its bc im tryna hold shift as i go for the head and i need to stay level?

[fierce umbra]

why are you holding shift during slashes in the first place

💔

[rich bridge]

mann i was told to hold shift like all the time so i thought the strat was to do that

[fierce umbra]

also try aiming your mouse higher than you think it should be when going for the head

[rich bridge]

unless ur wearing armor

[jolly nexus]

Hi chat

[fierce umbra]

how does everybody have schreiber

[jolly nexus]

Not everybody has the schreiber role

[pale jewel]

im honestly confused because i'd find it harder NOT to hit headshots sometimes with certain longer weapons

[fierce umbra]

ok but how do you even get it

[pale jewel]

the peasant hoe(?) is a diabolical face scooping machine

[rich bridge]

the main question is like if im readying in the right position bc to demonstrate id hold it up here but as u can see, it will want to glide down diagonally, not across the face

ignore dead dude it was me attempting

[naive holly]

By being way into the 15th century

[pale jewel]

are you pulling straight across?

[fierce umbra]

so just a historic nerd?

[fierce umbra]

you are holding it diagonally

i hold it like horizontal and then just aim higher

[rich bridge]

yea but when id do that it does more of like a slapping the person across the face with the flat end of the blade haha

[fierce umbra]

90% of the time i dont even care about the sword position since i swipe and it still goes where i want it

[rare gust]

how many hours do all u guys have in half sword out of pure curiosity

[fierce umbra]

yeah thats happens sometimes

[naive holly]

Seems like it or actually having studied the period academically.

[naive holly]

Hundreds

[fierce umbra]

ehhh

not alot

like 138

[pale jewel]

just aim higher

more sweep

[rich bridge]

oh wait ur right, my fault im bein dumb here

[rare gust]

i have 71 and i thought that was a lot lol

[jolly nexus]

The role of schreiber is only for members who help in the referral channel with accuracy and people they trust with referrals and that sort of thing.

[pale jewel]

definitely a mouse movement issue not a game issue

[rich bridge]

both of yall i mean

[naive holly]

Yeah you have to actively arc upwards. Make sure your wrist is completely straight and your moving your whole arm

[fierce umbra]

well im not getting it then

[rich bridge]

yeah i wasnt sayin it was the game i was tryna figure out how to aim for the head better

[pale jewel]

just practice more

have you beat the game yet

[rich bridge]

nah 😭 i have 30 hours in it rn

still havent beaten it

[fierce umbra]

elaborate on beat the game

[rich bridge]

prolly baron

[fierce umbra]

gauntlet isnt all there is

[rich bridge]

ahh i see

[pale jewel]

killed baron and freely able to get to any stage

[fierce umbra]

i would consider getting to last tier on abyss as completing the game

[jolly nexus]

Well, I've been here since 2023 helping with this kind of thing, like references and stuff. So eventually it will be your turn, who knows?

[fierce umbra]

no i dont know ANYTHING about history

better yet medieval history

[pale jewel]

cause i'd just spam longsword millitia or something until you're slicing faces like butter

[pale jewel]

lies

baron or nothing

[fierce umbra]

abyss

😔

[pale jewel]

who's that?

[naive holly]

The biggest mistake people who struggle with accuracy make is passively twisting the wrist.

[pale jewel]

you mean that annoying mode you get after dying in the only gamemode?

[plain token]

beautiful eyes

[fierce umbra]

are you just joking or do you genuinely not know what that is

[fierce umbra]

yes

[rich bridge]

i want to get into it so bad but im so buns at finding sources and references on the things i actually am interested in that i just decide to read books and whatnot on it instead

[fierce umbra]

you can beat it too

[naive holly]

Imma go for meme manager

[pale jewel]

yes and then you respawn in the REAL game

abyss is only a vehicle to gauntlet smh

[fierce umbra]

no

you can actually play an endless sort of mode if you beat baron and manually go to abyss

[rich bridge]

ive been keeping my arm straight, or at least trying to, ive just been tryna figure out what direction and way i swing to land towards the head, but from what im getting i keep it generally horizontal/level and arc upwards like you said

rather than trying to keep the sword high and slash sideways

bc keeping it high just makes it ready for like a diagonal

[pale jewel]

sometimes changing your camera mode can help

[jolly nexus]

There are many sources where you can find references, such as Facebook, Pinterest, and other similar sites. If you know how to search properly, you can really find some reliable sources.

[pale jewel]

personally i find seeing spacing in the earlier stages easier in 1v1s in FP, but once i get enough armour on its not worth the tradeoff of the sightlines imo

[rich bridge]

oh wait lemme try that, i lowk never played in fp yet

[pale jewel]

makes the relationship between mouse movement and weapon movement way more obvious in my opinion

center of your screen feels like the center of your movement

[rich bridge]

omg this helps a lot to learn weapons tysm

i understand my sword now

[naive holly]

Simple but yeah, just go from 0° to like 15°. Almost like unterhau but extremely shallow to counteract the natural movement of Willie's weight shifting.

[rich bridge]

my half... sword....

[pale jewel]

https://tenor.com/view/ah-ok-i-understand-now-i-understand-skull-gif-25949830

HE SAID IT

HE SAID THE THING

[signal wedge]

yoo Amazon logo

[rich bridge]

facts

[rich bridge]

yeah im getting it down now i think, ty fr. i think the thing was letting it swing the way it needs to first and then dragging it up rather than forcing the direction from the start

[naive holly]

I always recommend people take a second of peace to move the mouse at different speeds and angles and see how it translates to the game. Bc velocity does play a huge role in how the swing comes out.

Speed
Movement
Twist
Initial stance

It all matters.

[pale jewel]

truth!

eventually u internalise it and you dont think about it at all

but at the start you need that mental correlation

[plain token]

guys terrible news dropped 😔

[pale jewel]

one more year of refining my skills

thats all it means

[rich bridge]

i actually gotta master the weapon like its my own thats so fire

[naive holly]

I still read q1 in my head and was like, bruh old news 😂

[pale jewel]

but i think of half sword a lot like a fighting game

like theres that actual gap of

okay

[plain token]

lemme make this into a gif so i can repost it easily to new people

[rich bridge]

i can feel the larp coursing through my veins...

[pale jewel]

i need to get to grips with the control scheme

then after taht theres the actual learning techniques

once you know how to MECHANICALLY do things you can plan TACTICALLY

[pale jewel]

also true

if you think about

okay if you grab a pole or baseball bat and swing it without any correction irl

you'll notice it will naturally follow a downwards line

[magic flume]

So you lose all progress if you die in ultimate challenge? Back to serf?

[pale jewel]

but if you start with trying to hit in a line going up you'll swing up

[plain token]

yes

[pale jewel]

to swing horizontally you need to correct while you're in the swing

[pale jewel]

you die in real life

and i thought that wasnt the case anymore

[magic flume]

I got a glitch so i couldnt unsheath the sword

[pale jewel]

its okay we all get performance anxiety sometimes

they have pills for that now tho

howdo i access

[plain token]

[misty gazelle]

Movement plays a big role in how you can throw each swing too. Sidestepping, moving back or forth will influence the force and direction to a degree.

lotta folks stand stiff like a board and you don't really get much out of it.

[magic flume]

What about the ultimate challenge in free mode? Does it reset gauntlet progress?

[pale jewel]

yeah lowk learned movement from other slashers

[plain token]

yes

[rich bridge]

final thing but when yall are blocking do u kinda just let autoparry do it or do u try to actually swing into their swing to block it

[plain token]

who's joe

[misty gazelle]

Bit of both, arch

autoparry isn't really reliable

[mystic knoll]

how much do you need to type to become lv3 bruh

[lost iron]

how do i make a clip in game?

[plain token]

press ctrl+w

[pale jewel]

i lowkey wasnt aware there was an autoparry

i always actively parry attacks where i can

[plain token]

theres like a slight autoparry

[rich bridge]

thats kinda been my problem, but also just generally me being bad and missing my blocks and then them being able to make a swing back into me

[plain token]

because otherwise the sword would be too floppy

[merry junco]

use medal.tv or obs

[rich bridge]

and then i get my arm cut off

[merry junco]

i use obs

[pale jewel]

if its a slash and you can dodge backwards then do so

[plain token]

obs doesnt compress well

[pale jewel]

dont block what you dont need to

[misty gazelle]

Set up for good guards too when you do intend to parry

[pale jewel]

you dash back like you've got a kilometer long bungee cord attached inside your rectum

use it

[white trail]

wobba

[pale jewel]

https://tenor.com/view/wobbuffet-detective-true-detective-cool-advanced-challenge-gif-4609149060956134602

[rich bridge]

you right, although i do wanna practice it anyhow. my main thing is like when they go for a horizontal slash and i try to block it but its like i swung away too far or too early and they just hit me

[rich bridge]

ohh i see

[pale jewel]

watch the windup they usually have pretty obvious windups

[misty gazelle]

^

[pale jewel]

then you want your sword reasonably close (not at your face, but if they hit your sword too far along they have the leverage advantage)

and actively move your weapon into it

[rich bridge]

i think im acting too late too, deciding to move the blade into their swing once they start, rather than preparing for their swing

[misty gazelle]

bit of a slow parry here, but its all the same

Positioned my sword anticipating the line of his strike, but again, doesnt always activate

[pale jewel]

lowkey tho your character always has better strength/structure then the AI, you can break through/bat away most attacs

[pale jewel]

none of your vids play past the first few seconds for me

unless its a boss*

[misty gazelle]

That is so weird :(, try dling them?

[rich bridge]

i had to give it a sec

[misty gazelle]

bit of a faster example

[rich bridge]

it worked after a bit

[misty gazelle]

that last vid is much more anticipatory on my part,

[pale jewel]

very true you basically stuffed his attack as soon as it started

[eager torrent]

whys i keep crashing

genuinely wtf

"fatal error" my game still runs

[pale jewel]

turn off blood

[eager torrent]

thats boring

[mystic knoll]

then keep crashing

[pale jewel]

its less boring than not being able to play the gmae

[eager torrent]

it feels faster restarting the game than waiting fore the death thing to go

[eager torrent]

what lock on

[pale jewel]

ah true

[misty gazelle]

just normal lock on, haven't changed that.

[rich bridge]

i wanna learn polearms after this cuz i always felt like my swings were too slow if ykwim

[pale jewel]

as much as people say stuff bro the default settings are so playable

like the only things that settings do is make techniques more comfortable, they are all still possible

[misty gazelle]

Polarms are fun, just gotta really focus on getting that momentum down, that and hand switches will help carry that

^

[pale jewel]

yeah they are definitely one of the odder ones to use

[rich bridge]

might be a matter of when i was trying too hard to force swinging a certain direction earlier rather than dragging it along to that direction

but yeah true

[pale jewel]

you cant get combos or momentum without good switching, advantage is having all that handle real estate means blocking is easy and half grip makes your structure almost impossible to break

and if you can get the hit its devastating

never forget the butt is also a viable strike point!

not just the head

[misty gazelle]

footwork is pretty big with them too.

you can use your own momentum to carry the swing

lemme see if I can put a clip together

[pale jewel]

honeslty bro i'd research a little bit of HEMA content or at least learn the MECHANICS behind why stuff works if that makes sense

if you understand the leverage involved, how and why footwork is important and different forms (but moreso what about each form is useful) even a little bit that can all apply to HS

[rich bridge]

man i was spamming shift a lil too hard all this time too, like on non-armor ranks such as militia or smth. its actually p useful for aiming a bit and tbh slowing myself down cuz sometimes i start tryna do too much and i begin flailing like crazy

[pale jewel]

yes theres always the flail trap

you dont need to make so many actions

waiting is also a good action sometimes

[rare hearth]

this mfer clean

[rich bridge]

i have like super basic things a lil bit ago but i think i will get deeper into it tbh, thanks

[pale jewel]

and fights (on default and higher damages) can be ended in one hit most of the time

most of the time fights are decided by 1-3 actually good hits in my experience

everything else is to get to those good hits

[rich bridge]

i thought i had to be holding shift 24/7 unless im starting to have more armor but it just makes me reckless 😔

[pale jewel]

yes true

[misty gazelle]

g0d's got the right idea. been putting a lot of my HEMA experience in to what I do in the game. It translates surprisingly well.

[pale jewel]

episode 7 i think

[silk radish]

Online multiplayer better be becoming

(The reason why I think that is because why else would it be a subscription)

[silk radish]

Link to the podcast?

[plain token]

no its only splitscreen

its like nintendo online but its not online

[pale jewel]

yeah they said the netcode was really hard to implement

[mental kelp]

u get a deal for 109 per year so no worries

[silk radish]

Then why would you pay a subscription?

[pale jewel]

so it is restricted to local multiplayer

[plain token]

bc its the new game industry model

people dying and giving their steam accs to their children

so they get everything for free

[pale jewel]

truth

idk wjhy they had to tell anyone

an ruin it for everyone

[silk radish]

Where is the podcast?

[silk radish]

Your property is still owned by your government

You can't post real gore, half sword gore is the exception

[small glen]

Parry with normal grip into halfsword is like

Super common

[small glen]

I've done it a bunch

[silk radish]

Their armor is the ugliest thing I’ve ever seen in my life

[small glen]

It's actually good to do after a parry

[jolly nexus]

The second EA releases it, I'll be making the payment, even if I have to stay up all night.

[small glen]

facts

btw, do you see that weird ass bevor that guy has in the back

wild shit

[buoyant ravine]

Half-sword devs when they release pre-orders or early access

[silk radish]

Would it technically be against the rules to call this game gay?

(Because it would glorify violence)

[rare hearth]

what

[jolly nexus]

now that I remember WAR FORKS

[rare hearth]

its not allowed to use gay as "bad"

[small glen]

a green orle?!

THAT SHIT IS COOL WHAT

[rare hearth]

pitchfork was overpowered since the dawn of time smh

[small glen]

not rly a pitchfork

its a pitchfork

turned into a military weapon

[silk radish]

Gay used to mean joyous

[small glen]

of mass destruction

[rare hearth]

yeah i know

[small glen]

honestly those things are like

[jolly nexus]

The guy with the war fork is giving a devilish smile.

[rare hearth]

pitchfork squared

[small glen]

more scary than a normal pitchfork

[deep shale]

look at that wretched smirk of his

he's clearly enjoying it!

[small glen]

and they existed for awhile

there is some in Asia too iirc

[small glen]

because he has the most annoying thing there

[rare hearth]

yo bee

was there a 2 sided spear ever

like

2 tips

[small glen]

he can control your weapon and make you his bitch

[small glen]

uhhhhhh

concepts that i know of

are mostly fantasy

[rare hearth]

aw

[small glen]

i don't know the legitmacy of it doe

if it was real

[rare hearth]

yeah it seems like a nice idea

[small glen]

the middle east likely made one

<@&1080390104562016306>

smite this man.

[rare hearth]

<@&1080390104562016306>

i was waiting for the image ot

load

thanks moderator

[jolly nexus]

exterminate that scambot

[bold pendant]

Are NPCs tougher/you weaker in the ultimate challenge?

[sullen heart]

mrbeast casino????? lets goo!!!!

[idle crane]

Discord mobile is bad

[silk radish]

No

[buoyant ravine]

what image they send?

what happened i wasnt here

[rare hearth]

oo do u have any photos

[jolly nexus]

scambot

[plain token]

they sent a giant naked mrbeast

[small glen]

Nope, ask Pitombinha about that

[buoyant ravine]

what scam was it

[small glen]

buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut

double edge spears

aren't rly a good idea

when you're in a spear formation, front guys tend to be in the front and ngl

[sullen heart]

“hello i am mr beast and i am partnering up with this crypto casino pls sign up”

basically

[small glen]

if i was a spearman in the frontlines, i would rather smack some guy behind me with a blunt end

then cut his face in half

[buoyant ravine]

this reminds me when my account got hacked in august

[rare hearth]

oh

[plain token]

this is a tragic moment

[sullen heart]

yeah i saw some ppl have similar stuff

[rare hearth]

i actually forgot about this

[sullen heart]

idk who would ever fall for it

[rare hearth]

though it does seem somewhat practical

[small glen]

maybe in just duels

[rare hearth]

maybe yeah

[small glen]

but it would also be a massive problem for the user

[signal wedge]

do the bug shaker

[small glen]

a lot of double side spears have a big blade, which could hurt the user

this is why polearms that do have like another end to it

[plain token]

how many people here have me blocked

[small glen]

have smaller little stab bits

or hooks

[signal wedge]

DO THE BUG SHAKER

[small glen]

I already did!

[rare hearth]

i was thinking maybe just a small knife blade sized tip

[signal wedge]

oh

[small glen]

https://tenor.com/view/bee-twerk-andreas-tegnander-gif-9621486865491734692

[signal wedge]

mb

[rare hearth]

so if someone gets too close

[brittle bridge]

yup it exist

[small glen]

yeah see, its smaller

[rare hearth]

you could quickly lift your hand and hit them with the knife edge

[small glen]

not a issue for the user

[buoyant ravine]

why would mr beast say pls? normally he wouldnt say that. if it were real it would be said like "hello I am Mr. beast and I am partnering with-" wait a casino is gambling he wouldnt really promote gambling

[small glen]

there is also something called a Ji

its chinese

[rare hearth]

o

[brittle bridge]

yeah i think that counts

[small glen]

I never knew half sword would be the beginning of a possible series of games

[buoyant ravine]

im still laughing at what happened to dante yesterday. that gif he sent me. the fact hes blaming me. its funny

[brittle bridge]

id like to try it for real, i love using the reverse spike of the candelabra

[rare hearth]

yeah though how good would that cut

[small glen]

you stab

not cut

[buoyant ravine]

fun fact no matter how low the enemys damage is they are insanely weak to stabs from anything

[small glen]

the way you usually use rear spikes like these

[rare hearth]

but then it defeats the purpose of having 2 tips, why use the small one when you can use the big one both for thrusting

[small glen]

is parry, riposte into a stab into there face, neck or groin

[brittle bridge]

yeah i know, stabs are deadly in this game

[rare hearth]

ohh

yeah makes sense

[small glen]

the pointy end is usually made for offensive uses

you would be shocked how much of Polearm fighting is just

[plain token]

whats this one

[small glen]

parry, smack, parry, bash, parry, slap

[brittle bridge]

i like it in a skirmish too, you can stab one with one end while stabbing another

[rare hearth]

eh arent most melee fights go like this

[small glen]

Ji

[small glen]

not rly

sword is usually parry, cut

[rare hearth]

you parry then riposte then you get parried so you parry their riposte until someone finds an opening

[plain token]

they were lazy naming that one

[small glen]

polearms is usually beating the shit out of someone

[rare hearth]

oo yeah

[rare hearth]

oh

[buoyant ravine]

xtra long candle

[small glen]

deadass, a lot of chinese weapons are just named Blade

like dao

[rare hearth]

i mean

[plain token]

i mean

[rare hearth]

swords were called swords

back then

not

[plain token]

a zwei hander is a 2 hander

[rare hearth]

long sword

short sword

just sword

[small glen]

yeah but they still had some difference

China was just

"Knife."

"Blade."

[rare hearth]

lmfao

[small glen]

"Blade 2."

[rare hearth]

cant wait for knife: the sequal

[small glen]

https://tenor.com/view/blade-wesley-snipes-gif-5601678048039086474

There can only be one blade

China: Nuh uh

[plain token]

a poleaxe is an axe on a pole

[small glen]

hammer too

[plain token]

depends

[small glen]

but anyways

not a lot of stabbing with spears, now that i think about it. In fencing anyways

a lot of bashing

some spears were not double edged, and just pointy

[mental kelp]

only sharp point
