[native oar]

but then the other guy taps me with the billhook

[true zealot]

question for #modders-guild-hall

[crimson compass]

aaaaand i hate this fucking game, spawned me into the tourney with none of my fuckign weapons

[native oar]

instant stamina drain and fall over

oh also one round my plancon glitched into the fucking ground

[agile spoke]

Pretty sure you can alter the strength in the game files already but you have to do it after every match or something like that

[dusky iron]

emotions are a trip fr

[remote crypt]

Run a pavise on your shoulder maybe? It blocks damage still

[native oar]

doing that already

i literally just got half-sword'd

[upper urchin]

me personally

[remote crypt]

ah

[twin mountain]

riots with the axe is so fun

[upper urchin]

when i knock both chudlings out

[native oar]

nothing i could do to counter the stamina-drain enchanted billhook

[twin mountain]

since you can dismember the lowlifes

[upper urchin]

i strip them and take their heads

[native oar]

like thats the crux of the issue here

[dusky iron]

skill issue also enchanted 😭😭😭

[remote crypt]

those gents were so fucking dumb there. Ran into the fallen trap.

[plush glen]

does using arrow slow mode also count as using stamina

[native oar]

what other explanation is there for this shit 😭

[uncut pier]

miltia raising their arms into the air to do that fuckass overhead polearm knockout maneuver just to see their upper arms hit the floor

[native oar]

literally tapped

[twin mountain]

im gonna try and see if i can disarm the baron

[native oar]

with the wood of the billhook shaft

[remote crypt]

probably not for muscles

[twin mountain]

so he pulls out his big sword

[vague canyon]

if i have to quit mid abyss does it save?

[remote crypt]

its a mental drain I think

lorewise

[sturdy lake]

nope

[mental plaza]

will we ever get houndskull bascinets in the game?

[twin mountain]

lets hope that i can disarm the baron

[dusky iron]

you take a fat ass heavy headed billhook to your heavily armored head and tell me if it makes you tired 😭😭 but fr just block then counter attack or use a weapon that out reaches his

[remote crypt]

do not believe so.

[mental plaza]

🥹 🥹

[native oar]

nonono, see, heres the kicker
not the head

the arm

[flat canyon]

i love shooting people in the neck with my crossbow and watching their life fade out of their eyes

[remote crypt]

no willie has dick armor if you can hit it.

[sturdy lake]

not in this time period

[native oar]

and it wasnt an attack

[twin mountain]

aint that a kick in the head

[native oar]

it was literally a tap

my arm made contact with it

[dusky iron]

mehhhh send the clip

[plain brook]

i like to stab em and pin em to a wall and have them bleed out in my arms

[native oar]

i dont play recording or with medal or anything

[tacit fog]

might work if you walk around a pillar with him alone and wait til his weapon get stuck on the pillar

[flat canyon]

damn thats messed up

[mental plaza]

its earlier than the games period

[twin mountain]

i could probably use the barons weapon to disarm him since its pratically a hook

[fallen glacier]

Yes I believe so, I think it will possibly be Duke but I'm not sure. Based on internal files there's a cut rank with its own icon. It's odd though because this rank is referred to as Lord but it uses the unused icon, meanwhile the name of the icon for the actual in-game Lord tier is Duke. I hope that makes sense.

So essentially, the top tier role atm is technically Lord, while the next rank that we can't get to yet, the guy with the red crown, should be Duke.

Each tier has 3 ranks typically, indicated by the stars on their icons. This is also reflected in the numerzsation of their icons. For example the icon for beggar is named "old_system_01_Beggar" then peasant is "old_system_02_Peasant" and so on, with the number continually increasing.

However based on this numbering system there appears to be 2 ranks missing, 9 and 10. The numbering of the ranks is consistent from 1 to 8, with 8 being Knight, but then the next rank after that is Lord (in-game at least, internally it's Duke) except that the Lord rank is internally numbered 11 and ends at 12, being Duke, but we can't reach that tier yet.

So there are in essence 3 ranks missing, two between Knight and Lord, and then one after Lord

[sturdy lake]

yeah and they made better helmets

[dusky iron]

either way i’m cryin at stamina drain enchanted 😭

[gusty frigate]

when I join a tournament, my guy just starts backing up at full speed by itself. Anyone else experiencing this?

[meager sorrel]

how tf am i suppose to get the chest in the back of the wagon in forest

[sturdy lake]

you dont

[native oar]

baron started cheating and ordered his hidden fucking court magician to enchant the weapons of his goons

cheating mfer

[sturdy lake]

you get the crossbow in the chest

thjats fallen out

[plain brook]

more proof of that rollback theory

[meager sorrel]

but I want the helmet in it 🙁

[twin mountain]

how do i get the cape off someone wearing it

[dusky iron]

oh wow thanks for the in depth response i was genuinely really curious about this, so what do we think those missing ranks will be known as?

[mental plaza]

oh

[twin mountain]

do i gotta hit him many times

[mental plaza]

crossbows i remember those

[visual prairie]

https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/m33JmIgHu5wD6H_Yv?invite=cr-MSxYVlksNTIyMjczNzU0 You can use the traps to fly

[mental plaza]

where are they?

[raw plover]

game feels so rough man how do yall keep playing when you cant swing a 2handed weapon for shit

[agile spoke]

You can clip through and grab stuff out sometimes but it's not consistent at all

[flat canyon]

you have to work out your character, by wasting stamina it becomes stronger and makes handling heavy weapons easier

[mental plaza]

build muscle

[near grotto]

Self hatred

[mental plaza]

and also make sure your weapon isnt heavy as shit

good weapon design is a thing

[plain brook]

build self hatred muscle

[vague canyon]

dont swing too fast?

[raw plover]

its like the 2h mace thing thats sorta short

[vague canyon]

slow down ya rythym

[velvet moss]

i just drag things around and get stronger?

[meager sorrel]

I was able to get it

[near grotto]

Guys the wrists do just flop

Like they do actually do that

Not every time

But they do

[agile spoke]

Did you make it up on the cart or clipped through?

[remote crypt]

I was using the broken beams to quarterstaff in brawl earlier. Lost the vid of it tho

[meager sorrel]

i pushed my characters hand as far up into the cart as possible and got it

[dusky iron]

i have 45 hrs shit is gas

[fallen glacier]

I think it's also worth noting that if we go off of the old system from the demo, the ranks 1-8 are the exact same in EA as well as being numbered like in EA, it goes from beggar>peasant>commoner etc all the way to Knight, and then after Knight is when you face the baron(in the demo) - but Baron also seems to be its own rank in the demo since it has an icon and everything, and it's numbered 9(Icon_Rank_9), right after Knight(Icon_Rank_8)

So I'm guessing that in reality, there should be a Baron rank after Knight in EA but it was cut or unused atm or whatever, and then possibly another rank after than for 10th, and then Duke rank after Lord for 12th

[meager sorrel]

It was hard but i did it and it wasnt a helmet it was a neck thing

Actually good too because now my throat is protected

[upper urchin]

pause

[twin mountain]

oh hey i learned a new tech

you can strip down your enemies

[finite bough]

talking to enemies until they submit LMAO

[twin mountain]

[vague canyon]

i feel like you should get to baron and then have a rockstar games level story mode after

[finite bough]

everyone does that...

[dusky iron]

thanks for the upscaled pics as well btw that crown looks way less regal than i first thought in its tiny ass picture but that’s really interesting and i like the prospect of progression mode getting longer and more depth, my hopes for this game are high af

[frozen radish]

HOW

[twin mountain]

hold someone then hold q or e

whichever arm is on their body

[crimson compass]

Okay so first blood doesnt actually mean first blood very cool

[true zealot]

chat should i call it wraps for my abyss run or keep trying

[crimson compass]

Thanks devs

[mental plaza]

do you start getting full cuirasses at man at arms?

[solid cape]

how do you access the opening cutscene again

[fallen glacier]

Which makes sense because in reality the ranks would go Baron, then Lord, then Duke, with Duke being the highest rank in the peerage system aside from royalty(king, queen, prince, princess, grand duke/duchess)

[vague canyon]

use the candle holder as a peg leg and keep fightin

[fallen glacier]

So it's kind of neat knowing that technically there should be people in Frankenburg with much more power than even the Baron. Hopefully we get to meet them at some point

[summer cloud]

No matter how long you control a fight, armor always wins in the end 🙁

[opal mural]

didnt know you could cut the helmet in half

[remote crypt]

you can win that

[civic solstice]

Are they planning on adding more voice fx

[twin mountain]

im stripping this poor dude down

LOL

[limpid yacht]

yo why is the baron in leather timbs

[plain brook]

its because arms too strong legs too weak in the ea

[opal mural]

you can take their stuff?

[finite bough]

yes

[twin mountain]

yes

[vague canyon]

oh fuck it can be worse

[opal mural]

how so?

[twin mountain]

just l;earned about it

[frozen radish]

when I do it it just lets go

[opal mural]

yeah same

[twin mountain]

use the arm that you are holding them

[vague canyon]

make sure your holding a piece that can be taken

[twin mountain]

dont use the opposite arm

[fallen glacier]

they have to be dead/unconscious/surrendering

[finite bough]

hold q or e while holding them

[civic solstice]

Is there a way to suggest stuff to the devs

[solid cape]

before EA i had always thought frankenberg was a province or town of some European nation

[frozen radish]

I see, gracias supercell

[dusky iron]

hopefully so but i guess we’ll know in time. i wish they had some sort of roadmap at the very least

[crimson compass]

Why has there still been no fix for 1 handed stabbing yet????

[opal mural]

thank yall

[fallen glacier]

Frankenberg is an actual town in Germany

[crimson compass]

Kind of crazy that is broken

[civic solstice]

You mean the thing where the arm is up at an awkward angle?

[copper citrus]

Yo what are the best graphic setting for mid range pc with amd?

[mental plaza]

when do we get guns in the game

[fallen glacier]

but I'm not sure that Half Sword's Frankenburg/Falkenburg is suppose to be a 1:1 of it, just borrowing a similar name I guess

[mental plaza]

i need my hussite larp

[void ocean]

which patch

i pirated the game

[civic solstice]

That’s the 1600’s edition

[shrewd loom]

too bad

[solid cape]

i know, my brain isnt smooth

[vague canyon]

ive got some nasty stuff from the playtest and demos, but i havent gotten anything like this and lived yet

[shrewd loom]

#updates

[mental plaza]

hussites was using ts 1400s 🥹

[finite granite]

i reached the rank after lord. is that it? im not seeing any more tourneys

[mental plaza]

jan zizka invented modern combat with guns cause hes a tuffinator.

[twin mountain]

they were already invented

[shrewd loom]

how gng

[true zealot]

I DID IT

[finite bough]

i still got demo and i play it to do this stuff

[shrewd loom]

im still a begger

[twin mountain]

but they are terribly inaccurate

[civic solstice]

These devs should make a Napoleon era combat game

[remote crypt]

good shit

[shrewd loom]

this game is too hard

[fallen glacier]

they had arquebuses in 1475. We see one in-game as well as on the cover art

[vapid pumice]

the game takes place in 1475

[dusky iron]

skill issue

[twin mountain]

up your enemy damage

[vague canyon]

i think the gore is more realistic in EA tbh, but its surreal in demo

[grim vapor]

what are the unchangeable keybinds? like space for crouch/jump.... what's taunt?

[fallen glacier]

H for undressing yourself

[dusky iron]

mfs really be creating some ed gein ass art in this game😭🙏

[limpid yacht]

i killed baron too quick for the secondary

[native elm]

is it just me or does the slums map actually run WORSE after hotfix 3 than it did in hotfix 2?

[shrewd loom]

true jester willlie

[dusky iron]

you’re goated fam

[tacit fog]

learn to strike them after they tried to hit you with a vertical slam, approach with shift when their weapons head is on the floor

[civic solstice]

What if they make it so that some cuts don’t go all the way through the body and you can just have some parts hanging off rather than being completely cut off

[twin mountain]

how do i shave my willie

[ashen dirge]

who up halfing their early access sword

[mental plaza]

i was hope that we get brigandines for like early body coverage

[twin mountain]

i like bald willies

[upper urchin]

pause

[ashen dirge]

I like hairy willies I won’t lie

[native elm]

its almost like SOMEONE at half sword HQ forgot to tie the foliage density setting to all the fucking grass in slums...

[shrewd loom]

nah dude ik these i was too good in demo

looks like they made willies more powerful

in this version

they are like hulks ong

[civic solstice]

Willie uprising

[compact ermine]

Why did no one warned me that bees are deadly 😭

[remote crypt]

95% sure its playtest stability. Not demo.

[native oar]

you just cant make this shit up dude, it always happens when i face the baron

chudling had a polearm

[visual tree]

just got my first baron clear in ea

neat

[native oar]

it glitches straight through my armor

[mental plaza]

i swear they feel so much weaker

[fallen glacier]

Do we ever meet these guys in the tavern? They have two textures, one of them looking at the player as if we're interacting with them, like how it does with everyone else in the tavern. I don't think I've ever seen these guys

[ripe arch]

yeah that and the twirl my weapon does every 3 swing

[ashen dirge]

I used them as a trap the first time I seen them 😭😭 they had teasers for it a while ago

[native oar]

i get like 12 consecutive screenshakes and sparks flying

[civic solstice]

One’s common instinct is to not mess with fucking bee hives

[remote crypt]

mightve been cut content for the mercs.

[dusky iron]

lmaooo

[native oar]

i literally cartwheel mid-air and then slam down where i then die

[shrewd loom]

Like what AM I supposed to do in this 😭😭 i stand no chance

they too strong

[true zealot]

holy ai

[mental plaza]

why does the hair look like that

nd the face

[meager sorrel]

how does the crossbow work

[fallen glacier]

possible. They're internally named "Patrons" though, while the actual mercs are named "Mercenaries"

[compact ermine]

Its just that I hit them by accident and just got swarmed

[ashen dirge]

U lose all side hair when u become buff

[true zealot]

AI

[ashen dirge]

Same with irl

[dusky iron]

no i don’t think so, seems like they could be used for some sort of gambling or task system tbh

[civic solstice]

Then don’t hit them maybe

[remote crypt]

You have to use right click to aim. Left click allows you to fight when not using 'half swording'. R for reload.

[compact ermine]

I got killed and the evil willy as well

[remote crypt]

maybe there was a tavern map at some point.

[dusky iron]

you’re absolutely right about the two poses being reflective of the other tavern goers and how they look at you

[shrewd loom]

and this willie is so massive that he can run over me crushing me

[harsh raft]

tf

[shrewd loom]

They need to nerf the willies 🙏 😭

[compact ermine]

Literally my pollaxe got raised and while I was running I hit them without realizing

[dusky iron]

mfs really used to wear pajamas and call it drip 😭😭

[twin mountain]

stripping down willies

[compact ermine]

thought that My willy was getting possesed

[fallen glacier]

there technically is one, Gottfried's tavern where we pretty much live atm. There's other patrons that appear in the bar randomly but they're far away and can't be interacted with

They could be in a different tavern I guess idk

[frozen radish]

How do I equip the knee things?

[twin mountain]

knocked this dude down 6 times and hes still trying

[twin mountain]

indomitable human spirit

[dreamy pelican]

guh

[ancient urchin]

wth

[twin mountain]

he finally gave up

[timid estuary]

We all can agree npcs are ass at using long weapons

[mental plaza]

its so easy to play leverage with my giant heavy ass polehammer

[twin mountain]

theyre too weak and the long weapons too heavy

[dusky iron]

never back down never give up

[frozen radish]

Why can't I equip poleyns?

[dreamy pelican]

thats why women dont like my willie

[ancient urchin]

i hate npc downward swings

[fallen glacier]

also here's the texture for the tavern. I never realized there was a cat in here

[plush glen]

love at first blade

[shrewd loom]

what's the maximum weight I can become

[ancient urchin]

conflicting armor

[timid estuary]

Mine swings them easily, i always used long weapons soooo

[frozen radish]

I have only trousers on

[ancient urchin]

not compat

[mental plaza]

the constant meow in the background 😭

[ancient urchin]

take em off

use hosen

[shrewd loom]

atleast use marker

[civic solstice]

They had the audacity to add that and not let you interact with it

[twin mountain]

just give up big man

[frozen radish]

Why is the area to equip spaulders blocked off?

[mental plaza]

i swear they made the game easier since the demo

[plush glen]

still cant see it, make it bigger

[shrewd loom]

I lost character in my progression mode and now I can't launch it again it's giving me fatal error

[twin mountain]

arming doublet

[fallen glacier]

true

[white sierra]

i have that actually. the blood shows, but i very rarely get gore. the sliders are up. any fix?

[shrewd loom]

Ugly ass cat

[plush glen]

you leave him alone

[remote crypt]

Yeah I meant more like 'walking around inside and brawling'. Would love for brawls to take place primarily in a tavern with weapons you could pick up and the willies could.

or an errand to clear the bar from X amount of people

[frozen radish]

I feel that you are wrong as I am wearing NOTHING on my upper body and it still shows as no

[bleak bramble]

thats literally why

[twin mountain]

you need an arming doublet to equip the shoulder armor

[remote crypt]

you require an arming doublet to put on arm stuff.

[frozen radish]

Oh 😭

[remote crypt]

Arming doublet.

[summer cloud]

Forget tranquility, embrace the chaos

why am i walking SO SLOW now in abyss

[torpid oriole]

is a poleaxe good?

can you buy arrows anywhere

[vague canyon]

like i get past the 4th boss and i just got bricks for feet

[shrewd loom]

how do I reach this without training

[crisp onyx]

okay looks like 93 is max

[flat canyon]

murdering people while having the no im not a human soundtrack in the background makes things 100x more visceral

i just thought of this, is it possible to replace our model with a zombie and still scale and buff it?

https://klipy.com/gifs/tank-run

damnnn, i only have 5.7k

Jank Fu is not yet refined enough to face a master of another dicipline

do i just make it really light

[twin mountain]

riots with the axe is so fun

since you can dismember everyone

[shell forge]

Game picked the best time to crash: after i break both the champion's legs before deciding that the fight was fair enough for me to use a shorter swinging weapon

[remote crypt]

[twin mountain]

erm

[calm sparrow]

does anyone know how to fix pixelated shadows?

[summer cloud]

You need weight to deal any damage. Balance weight and center of mass for optimal handling and damage

[twin mountain]

i guess we got floating hair

[modest estuary]

if you click out of the crash pop up thing you might be able to continue and save before it fully crashes

[rocky sedge]

What do i do after killing baron?

[gaunt sundial]

kill im again till you get all of his gear?

[rocky sedge]

i did that

[vague canyon]

just got my leg cut off at the knee where i had armor in abyss 1475 souls in

[twin mountain]

i dont even think you need to do all that

since you can just strip the baron off

i think

[vague canyon]

baron cant be stripped

[modest estuary]

https://klipy.com/gifs/griffin-family-guy

[twin mountain]

well thats sad

[rocky sedge]

nope i tried, i killed him for all gold armor

[teal mural]

Then you've completed as far as the current progression build goes

[rocky sedge]

well shit

[vague canyon]

quite literally, just add williescream.mp3 and its what im goin thru

[summer cloud]

It's a lot harder to control the jank of the smaller pollaxe. Also this bad boy costs 8000

how do you swing it around like that?

[crude delta]

so the longswords are currently swinging way too fast for the rest of yall too right?

[thorn kite]

why does my forest actually preform worst since the new fix lmao

[teal mural]

Gotta drink poison and clean up the vengeful souls regularly

[crude delta]

they feel cheaty

[modest estuary]

if you make them too light\

[rocky sedge]

had to make mine super heavy for it to feel good

[twin mountain]

also does he give his big sword

[rocky sedge]

yes

[summer cloud]

Always gold

[rocky sedge]

its mid againts armor, can make heavier one for more damage

[fringe nova]

They gotta add an option to view the back of the armour in the shop

[vague canyon]

you have to bait him to pull it out tho

[modest estuary]

ive kept going for a while without a leg with a long mace swinging with one hand barely able to stand, i have hope

[crude delta]

feels OP but maybe itll get harder with armor

[twin mountain]

im gonna try that the next time i fight him

[summer cloud]

It's the secret art of Jank Fu. It is an ancient secret

[limpid yacht]

how do i take my sword out of the sheath

https://tenor.com/view/hysterical-laughter-laughing-gif-25735842

id love to try but i cant stay standing and when i am i go where the wind takes me

[summer cloud]

No, that's just my drip

[ebon crown]

any way to reset progression completely?

[vague canyon]

oh no this is normal abyss im done with the baron and allat lmao

[rocky sedge]

no kill more willies and you get busted stronf

[limpid yacht]

my dudes just holding it's handle

[torpid oriole]

i am strong

[vague canyon]

swing

[limpid yacht]

yeah?

just moves the body

[fallen glacier]

To delete your save and fully reset your progress:

1. Turn off Steam Cloud saves in Half Sword Properties>General
2. Goto %localappdata%\HalfSwordUE5\Saved\SaveGames and delete GameProgress.sav, or rename it to GameProgress.sav.bak in case you want to retrieve the save back later.
3. You can also back up your save manually this way if needed.

[vague canyon]

do the motion where he grabs the handle, then swing outward, if not then its ggs

[rocky sedge]

pole axe is naturally heavy but my guy had no issue swinging the heaviest one i could make

[ebon crown]

Cheers boss

[torpid oriole]

dang

[rocky sedge]

i didnt die the whole time tho

[remote crypt]

fair I always do iron.

[nimble sleet]

hoo boy

[rocky sedge]

killed 390 people it says

[vague canyon]

you should have the ability to reattach limbs in the abyss ngl, if you can grab it and equip it back on like armor it would be cool lmao

[flat canyon]

you can automatically win every round by equipping a crossbow that already has an arrow, holding it in front of you and just letting enemies walk into it

[rocky sedge]

same with anything stabby

[rocky sedge]

this is a great idea

[timid estuary]

Whos this baron ripoff 😭

[summer cloud]

Gold is a lot heavier, which is sometimes important to get the desired tipping point

[worldly girder]

is that why my guy is halfway to the floor after swinging the barons beak while wearing his armor

[rocky sedge]

maybe?

[solar pivot]

Ah yes spend 3000 pfennigs for a slightly better valence

Balence

[agile spoke]

Yes

[solar pivot]

[remote crypt]

hm

[rocky sedge]

gold is super heavy so its possible

[vague canyon]

you should be able to join an army for pay the same way you can hire guys to fight for you

[twin mountain]

boom

[summer cloud]

Proper balance is worth its weight in gold

[flat canyon]

seems like the one who attacks last always wins

[vivid sluice]

why am i trash at this now i cant even get out of begger

[meager sorrel]

thank u to whoever mentioned the chests to me lord balls is dripped out now

[solar pivot]

I just finished the game

I beat the baron

[twin mountain]

ok the axe is weird

[summer cloud]

Beat the game, huh

[twin mountain]

the slower you swing it the better it decapitates

[timid estuary]

I just need the barons helmet for the full set

[meager sorrel]

ive noticed that too

[twin mountain]

no wonder why the starter guys keep decapitating me

[solar pivot]

I was a little bit disappointed because I hoped there would be a cool ending scene but no

[summer cloud]

Barons beak is mutually assured destruction

[meager sorrel]

There is a gore slider in the settings that may help

[celest river]

jus got the baron cuisses

[cursive folio]

can't wait for peasant brawl on narrow passage

[summer cloud]

The real ending scene were the Willies we beat along the way

[solar pivot]

I just took the barons hammer, put on the armor and killed some beggars and quit

[rocky sedge]

great weapon

[summer cloud]

Bit too op for me

[woeful leaf]

polearms are a little weird i dont think my arms are meant to turn 180 degrees

[solar pivot]

I got tired of it all because I was playing for like 4 hours straight

[twin mountain]

so this is where the lag comes from

[woeful leaf]

this is odd

[twin mountain]

i know that

[fallen glacier]

anybody know that you can double click an item in your inventory and it will equip it, also if there's already a piece of armor in a slot it will also swap it out

[worldly girder]

My last baron fight i purposely let him keep getting up so i could make him drop all 4 of his weapons

[solar pivot]

[rocky sedge]

definetly got tired of whooping everyone

[solar pivot]

Is there any way to knock off his helmet?

[worldly girder]

Barons beak knocks off helmets like 60% of the time in my experience and I havent seen it happen

[rocky sedge]

why do u have 3 pairs of shoes insured lmfao

[summer cloud]

What do you mean? This is perfectly normal

[solar pivot]

I tried using the absolutely heaviest maces and poleaxes but it could never come off

[twin mountain]

damn

[rocky sedge]

upweard swings

[solar pivot]

[worldly girder]

That works for the baron?

[timid estuary]

Wait i forgot to pick up the barons pollaxe

[celest river]

fsr i got really confused cuz i was stuck in lord but ig im collecting all the baron armor

[timid estuary]

SHITTT

[rocky sedge]

hes a basic charcater with gold armor lol

nothing special

[solar pivot]

I love the environment in the slum

[worldly girder]

I remember in mordhaus old horde mode Seymour had a fucked up face under his helmet that you could find of see if you repeatedly jammed it into him in freecam. Was hoping the baron was similar

[solar pivot]

The devs put way to much detail

[twin mountain]

too bad its a laggy mess

[solar pivot]

Yes

[wicked depot]

crunchiest willy ever

[worldly girder]

All of the outdoor maps are gorgeous, especially now that i can actually run them at above 3 frames per decade

[solar pivot]

Idk why devs put so much detail even though you shouldn’t really be there

[static heron]

anyone know why i cant equip shoulder pauldrons or vanbraces ?

[worldly girder]

Need arming doublet

[solar pivot]

They are still kind of bad compared tot eh others

[celest river]

why is the lighting lighting so much

[static heron]

oohh cant use it whit jack and stings?

[solar pivot]

Yeah , I think only the arming doublet allows them

[lethal seal]

sword

[solar pivot]

No

[static heron]

thx people!

[worldly girder]

For sure, I assume there are a bunch of assets and details in the level that the player cant even see that just take up rendering power

[tawny anvil]

https://discord.com/channels/1043854763189600337/1468459336429863091

[twin mountain]

and the fact that its in ue5

[tawny anvil]

Thee need Greatsword

[random chasm]

playing da early access for the first time rn. i suck at it but im having fun :)

also ye i see the alg with the slums lol

[ocean hedge]

how do i get armor

[solar pivot]

There are literally rendered indoor areas of some of the houses

[ocean hedge]

[solar pivot]

It’s totally insane

[static heron]

do i need to take out the strings?

[solar pivot]

Yeah

[twin mountain]

strip them off dead willies

[vague canyon]

dude im still goin with no leg wtf

[ocean hedge]

how?

[solar pivot]

You can’t strip off body armor and shoes tho

[celest river]

or just buy from trader

[worldly girder]

How can you tell? Free cam hits invisible walls and Nvidia freecam isnt supported

[solid cape]

I wish I could play slums

[celest river]

although he overcharges

[vague canyon]

this is lies

[tall dagger]

the cloesst ive ever come to moving like that in my whole career...

[solar pivot]

How can you ?

[twin mountain]

hes worse than sidorovich from stalker

[celest river]

it crashes or just rlly low fps

[twin mountain]

thats 100% sure

[vague canyon]

you just grab and hold e or q lol

[worldly girder]

False, i stole my first cuirass and sabatons

[celest river]

buys for like 20% value and charges 300%

[twin mountain]

oops wrong person

[summer cloud]

That was pretty sick tho

[solar pivot]

Did not know that

[worldly girder]

Trader is such an asshole. Sells me some shit, buys the same shit back for like 8 gold

[runic plume]

Feet

[vague canyon]

finally croaked at the end of that lmao

[ocean hedge]

hate to ask but i cant just grab armor off people, so what do you mean exactly by just strip it off

[celest river]

are there gambesons in this game

[vague canyon]

yes you can, wait until they are submitted in anyway, grab the thorax or stomach and hold e or q

[solar pivot]

I was sad that retiring your character doesn’t do anything other than create a new character, I thought there would be a text screen to tell you a score or something or what you did with your wealth

[worldly girder]

Grab them with your hands, hold e or q depending on the hand youre grabbing them with. The clothing or armor on the grabbed body part will come off in your hands

[ocean hedge]

huh

never knew that

thank you

[astral vessel]

Hey, how can I reset my progress? I tried retiring a character and the game broke for me. After every match it takes me to a character creation screen now

[celest river]

why don't willies itg wear padded coif

[fringe rivet]

is it just me or did the update still do nothing

[celest river]

yet so many armor articles exist

[solar pivot]

Just leave the game

[wicked depot]

Ya its still nto great

[solar pivot]

Exit to desktop

[wicked depot]

Look at those frames lol

[worldly girder]

One of my biggest gripes with the current state of the game is how many important mechanics are just never explained at all

[solar pivot]

Yes

Jumping is not in the tutorial

[astral vessel]

Are you telling me you dislike EA's surprise mechanics? /s

[tall dagger]

lost the use of 1 hand at the beginning then lost the other about half way through 😭

[wicked depot]

Theres fucking jumping?

[celest river]

JUMPING??

[plucky birch]

Jesse why are you blue

[celest river]

IM LORD AND IDK THIS

[worldly girder]

Hold space

You can jump

[solar pivot]

Hold space

[worldly girder]

But its useless for the most part

You dont go very high

[celest river]

front wagon in forest

[worldly girder]

What about it

[celest river]

clothing articles or weapons

[solar pivot]

You can actually improve your leg muscles if you jump constantly

[tall dagger]

yeh

[modest estuary]

someone should mod in the fuction to let us maul people like the zombies

[celest river]

i always see it i just couldnt get it

[wicked depot]

If I keep jumoing, will it make me thicc

[worldly girder]

Isnt the front wagon closed?

[ocean hedge]

wow

[solar pivot]

Yes

[celest river]

wait are they smeletons or zombies?

[fringe rivet]

amd blood still broken

[ocean hedge]

how do i reverse grip lmao

[formal lichen]

anyone else have a fatal error popup happening that doesnt actually crash the game until 10 mins later?

[wicked depot]

No reverse grip

[celest river]

talking about the open one

[tall dagger]

rondel dagger found in the cellar

[solar pivot]

Skeletons but they are basically zombies the way they constantly bite you

[modest estuary]

dont know for sure id say zombies since theyre prone to eating us

[ocean hedge]

oooh where at

[summer cloud]

If you get a little bit lighter pollaxe, and shift the balance point down, you can do fast maneouvers much more easily

[solar pivot]

I had that once

[worldly girder]

The baron also drops it if you disarm him twice

[solar pivot]

Idk why or how I got it

[wicked depot]

and their bites are toxic asf too

[celest river]

they have brains

[tall dagger]

what is ur npc damage set to?

[tacit fog]

..for lunch

[summer cloud]

Normal

[crude delta]

anyone notice their Mass jumping around between a match, a loss, and resting for the night?

[celest river]

No i zoom into character model

[worldly girder]

Random thought but the zombies in the abyss look really good with the physics based animations, I'd play a whole game about that

[celest river]

its easy

[wicked depot]

The zombie willies as a character model are dope asf but all the other mechanics behind them are pretty lame

[tall dagger]

if i try to hit the armored guys with anything less than a heavy pole axe they just walk it off like nun happened...

[celest river]

should have a mechanic like not being able to be dismembered except for the head

[worldly girder]

The armored zombies are annoying because you knock them down but actually killing them comes down to autistic flailing

[tall dagger]

casted maces have been saving my ass tho

[crude delta]

wht makes the casted one good?

[twin mountain]

dude i keep getting pinned down

wtf

[lament ember]

genuinely faster to knock them down then just remove their helmet

[shell helm]

Its funny stealing the baron's hook everytime and selling the extras

[twin mountain]

i cant evenn stand up

[worldly girder]

Dismembering them and seeing them keep coming is literally the coolest part

[toxic musk]

I think the zombie willies bite is a bit too fast and damaging, like they can bite your hand mid swing or just fall on your neck and instantly kill you if unarmored, however I also think they're too fragile, they keep breaking limbs by walking into me

[celest river]

i noticed that blunt kills are especially easy in this version of the game

[tall dagger]

they hit much harder

[celest river]

or maybe they regen

[celest river]

casted was my backup weapon

served me good when my arm was chopped

[worldly girder]

Overall theyre harder than regular enemies just purely because they dont surrender after a bump on the noggin

[toxic musk]

its funny when you break their legs and they keep trying to stand up but fall over

[summer cloud]

Yeah you need it heavy enough, and with enough leverage, to deal good damage. But more leverage also means less control. I prefer less weight such that it is more so my own power that knocks Willie out

[whole marsh]

will we get surcoats?

and jupons

[astral vessel]

...Nope, just started happening again after winning a fight

[lament ember]

you can find surcoats already

[frozen radish]

What goes above the skirt thingy and next to the arms on the character

[whole marsh]

only tabards

[celest river]

the game is missing a lot of outside and inside padding articles or fashion

[worldly girder]

Im sure more customization is coming

[tall dagger]

ive been using this bad boy alot for sneaky stabs. sometimes knocks knights on their ass but its very sharp

[whole marsh]

true

[whole marsh]

red wood??

[tall dagger]

leather

[whole marsh]

how

[celest river]

they need coif, gambesons, and maybe padded pants

[tall dagger]

you can switch the handles on the swords and change the leather color

[whole marsh]

arming cap

[celest river]

and you should also be rewarded with agility for wearing lighter stuff

[twin mountain]

i give up bro

[celest river]

?

[twin mountain]

i cant even stand up without being knocked down

[astral vessel]

Why?

[celest river]

i havent seen that

[twin mountain]

holy hell

[shell forge]

Forest champions are like horror movie monsters, I find

[tall dagger]

red tabard???? I WANT!

[celest river]

highkey thats how it was irl

[twin mountain]

ad i lost

brooooo

im so pissed off

[frozen radish]

What goes next to the arming doublet on the right?

[twin mountain]

im going to fucking dismember that asshole

[astral vessel]

Nah man, more armour is straight up better imo

[wicked depot]

Is upper body strength separate from lower body

[worldly girder]

Gear too heavy. If youre wearing a hauberk but also have armor covering all of the same places, remove it

[astral vessel]

I think it's a good compromise already. Wearing less armour doesn't make you faster, but it makes you take longer to tire out

[tall dagger]

chains. can equip them in "craft armor"

they attach to the arming doublet

[magic schooner]

Why is free mode equipment limited?

[frozen radish]

I am very confused as now my arming doublet shows as gone but I can't equip anything there

[twin mountain]

i can stand up fine but the ai keeps hitting my leg

and i cant stand up

[summer cloud]

Sometimes Willie seems to collapse from the smallest of hits though. So I don't know how consistent you need to be

[astral vessel]

You unlock more as you play the progress mode!

[worldly girder]

Irl too. The trope of "really agile fencing master dismantling armored knight" didnt really exist irl because youd have to be so impossibly precise. Stabbing the tiny visor slit is hard enough when its on a dummy, when its on a jacked guy actively thrashing around trying to kill you, it becomes basically luck

[celest river]

again about the armor agility reward, Landsknecht were fucking beasts and that is partly due to wearing no armor.

[grave sierra]

genuinely who ever made the AI leading up to the baron boss nmeeds to be fired

I just watched a mf do a staff spin and one shot me through armor]

[sage heart]

how can I turn off hair it makes my game lag a lot

[grave sierra]

excuse me is this fucking kong fu panda?

[formal lichen]

do crossbows get infinite arrows in freeplay

[grave sierra]

I shjould not be getting one shotted by fucking baronm guards

[astral vessel]

They were beasts, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't for the lack of armour

[lament ember]

shouldve blocked bro

[grave sierra]

dawg

[dawn holly]

Would a 5060 graphics card run the game on epic on dx12?

[grave sierra]

he spun his staff of his head then decapitated me

😭

[lament ember]

not even a 5090 runs the game on epic boss

[dawn holly]

🥺

[tall dagger]

once i figure out my spin kicks on here i wont even need a weapon.

[twin mountain]

thats what he gets for not letting me stand up

[grave sierra]

genuinely fire the person whoi made the baron ai's

[celest river]

then the dude with a dagger takes off your aventail from behind you

[tall dagger]

i can run epic on a 3080

[dawn holly]

Well that’s very reassuring then

[twin mountain]

whats your cpu

[tall dagger]

on yard and cellar anyway

[twin mountain]

game is pretty cpu heavu

[astral vessel]

Yeah I'd rather take my chances with a dude with a dagger when I'm wearing a full harness. Less places for him to stab!

[sharp matrix]

i hit someone with the "so long gay bowser" and they died

whoops

[summer cloud]

Armor is overrated

[lament ember]

i9 14900k

[worldly girder]

Bring good mercs and help them gang up on his two guards to take them out early. Then you can clock him in the head while hes busy fighting them

[whole marsh]

zhis thing

[dawn holly]

I know you didn’t ask me, but the cpu is i7 - 14700hx

[vapid heart]

Tuff

[tall dagger]

wouldnt be if your opponent would actually swing 😭

[grave sierra]

DAWG THEY DID THE SAME THING TO MY MERC 😭

[celest river]

so they have that

[astral vessel]

Ok ngl that's impressive. How do you make it swing around so fast without it leaving one of your hands?

[sage heart]

how do u get crossbow I dont see it in free mode

[true zealot]

Where do I find a quiver?

[celest river]

that was kind of what i was thinking of

ye

[grave sierra]

dead ass watched one of my mercs get jumped off rip

[vapid heart]

Forest map

[whole marsh]

i dont think theres arming cap ingame lol

[true zealot]

Forest, in a crate beside the wagon

[formal lichen]

get it from forest and insure it in progression

[wicked depot]

Almost slightly ok blood spatter for the first time

[minor breach]

Is an rtx 2060 good enough to run the game on medium graphics

[torpid oriole]

fr

[sage heart]

how do I pick a map in free play

[summer cloud]

Never get hit

[dawn holly]

I would assume so

[celest river]

yeah you can just put on armor without any padding

[vapid heart]

Idk havent played free mode yet

[lament ember]

low graphics low resolution and ur gonna lag to hell and back on any outdoor map

[true zealot]

get lucky

[whole marsh]

it would suck though

[minor breach]

During certain times of day my game goes to shit

[true zealot]

or get to peasant in progression, open forest, get crossbow and insure it

[minor breach]

day and night time's I get 60 fps

[worldly girder]

Forest, it sometimes spawns in the boxes next to the cart

[sage heart]

wdym for me it always sends me to the og map

[celest river]

in fucking deed thats one of the most unrealistic things in this game

[agile spoke]

It's like Russian roulette honestly. You never know. My 4060 was chugging but hotfixes helped a bit

[dawn holly]

I mean, my old laptop with integrated graphics can run it on low at around 15 - 20 fps

[keen bobcat]

dumb question, In the game, it says to use stamina to build muscles. 1) does this apply after I've already won, and 2) does this apply to any of the "train" options

[minor breach]

But morning and evening on any map but the og I get barely 10

[summer cloud]

Willie was mesmerized by my hypnotic flailing

[rotund blade]

https://tenor.com/view/kys-keep-yourself-safe-low-tier-god-gif-24664025

[astral vessel]

Later pieces of armour, like in the 16th century, were worn mostly without padding, just thick fabric!

[twin mountain]

my mercenary decapitated a poor dude

[lament ember]

i would not call that running but its doing its best 😭

[whole marsh]

as you can see, your character wears a helmet raw, without anything

[minor breach]

They did help a bit

[summer cloud]

Yes

[minor breach]

But still the game is unplayable in certain times of day

[whole marsh]

i dont understand what youre saying

[dawn holly]

It’s trying man. I’m looking to upgrade, that’s why I was asking 🥲

[void ocean]

is there a possibility for a multiplayer mod for half sword?

[minor breach]

Its also considerably more buggy compared to the tech demo

[astral vessel]

Funny you mention helmets, they used suspension liners with very little padding too

[twin mountain]

also if you press h you can strip yourself down

[minor breach]

At least when I played

[keen bobcat]

to both?

[twin mountain]

it will strip your helmet first though

[celest river]

ok

[celest river]

no

[sharp matrix]

????

[whole marsh]

i mean yeah, but still, the time this game is set in, arming caps would be common

[sharp matrix]

no it aint lol

[void ocean]

its gotta be possible somehow

[minor breach]

For me it is

[worldly girder]

I love berserk but miura clearly didnt do too much research on armor because she would have been in agony if she wore it like this

[void ocean]

someone will figure it out

[celest river]

it is

[summer cloud]

Yeah

[sharp matrix]

yall dont remember the tech demo barely being able to run ultimate challenge?

lmao

[minor breach]

I get phantom touch and I fall over randomly

[celest river]

multiplayer def not getting implemented because ping exists

[sharp matrix]

i have phantom pain

[celest river]

and with ping, comes a great imbalance

[minor breach]

I was able to run it completely fine on high graphics

[mystic cloud]

what is the cloak called that goes over chest pieces

[astral vessel]

Fair, but my point is that plate already does a great job at dissipating blows, too much padding under it becomes more of a hindrance

[summer cloud]

Bro got kick reposted

[twin mountain]

wow nipple

[celest river]

but crappy helmets

[worldly girder]

Same, I have to run the early access on release. I'd attribute it to more complex environments and the devs maybe not having much optimization experience

[void ocean]

every game has ping

[celest river]

yes

[tall dagger]

my most embarrassing moment...

[astral vessel]

What crappy helmets?

[minor breach]

The game so far is alright so long as they add more stuff

[minor breach]

Probably

[summer cloud]

Honestly bro, honourable L. That particular Willie was cracked

[minor breach]

But the movement is clunkier and harder for me

[celest river]

shitty armoursmith shitty products

[void ocean]

atleast maybe the possibility for there to be local games over the same network

[minor breach]

Which is weird bc I had like 200 plus hrs in the demo and could use just about any weapon effecively

Not like super amazingly

But good enough

[celest river]

staff

[agile spoke]

I want a gladiator manager mode like exanima personally. I'd live in that mode

[minor breach]

And your guy is Hella weak too

[astral vessel]

If it's a bad helmet, you were already fucked either way

[tall dagger]

met a few cracked willies in my time.

[summer cloud]

You can play split screen with anyone on steam

[mystic cloud]

Dual wielding lamps felt op

What's better than the long candlestick in your opinion?

[minor breach]

Ill bump my head and get knocked out

[celest river]

yes thats my point

[void ocean]

too scary

idk how

[minor breach]

Running into a guy knocks uou down too

[void ocean]

plus i kinda pirated the game

[astral vessel]

But then the arming cap wouldn't really help much?

[celest river]

it would a little

[twin mountain]

what the hell man

[minor breach]

Bastard sword for me was super fun and easier to use

[worldly girder]

The most annoying shit is tripping over your own feet after a normal swing

[twin mountain]

my stupid mercenary beat the barron

[astral vessel]

You know what would also help more? A decent helmet hahahaha

[void ocean]

ill buy it eventually im js broke rn

[minor breach]

For commoner levels on the tech demo

[twin mountain]

i was about to fight him to get his sword

thats it hes getting fired

[minor breach]

Ywah

[summer cloud]

Open steam friends list while in game, it will give you a steam share link

[celest river]

if only frankenburg was economically balanced

[minor breach]

I was slitting hella throats bro

[plush glen]

love at first blade

[celest river]

not sure anyone is hitting clips like people used to in the demo

is anyone really good at it yet

[twin mountain]

brooo i dont wanna do this anymore

[minor breach]

But now the swords feel clunky and somewhat cumbersome

[minor breach]

Prolly not unless they acc have no life

[astral vessel]

financial issue + bad take + your maiden shows her ankles to peasants + ratio + other squires laugh at you

[minor breach]

Not even close

[mystic cloud]

Bovars make it so you have to aim for pits

[timid estuary]

i killed the baron 7 times, how much more dude

[minor breach]

I ain't see anyone make a cool clip since the demo

[twin mountain]

my barron luck has been abyssmal

[celest river]

i feel like when i used to just slash back and forth in the demo

[twin mountain]

3 cuirasses

[summer cloud]

You gotta go the the smith and test out different sliders

[timid estuary]

havent got a single duplicate in 7 fights with baron

[minor breach]

I felt like the earlier difficulties in tje demo made the game easy to pick up but hard to get good at with enough leniency to get creative

[celest river]

yeh

[minor breach]

Yeah maybe I gotta change sens

[safe loom]

yo why is my game freezing everytime I hit someone

[celest river]

dk

[minor breach]

Idk

Prolly a glitch or smth

[celest river]

pc specs?

[minor breach]

Try closing and opening thr game again

[true zealot]

Yes

There used to be one

[safe loom]

uh

[true zealot]

Though a fully fledged multiplayer is in the works, split screen is possible rn though difficult to do

[celest river]

the pc they test HS on must be really fucking good because they running cinematic at like 120 fps

[bold bridge]

how is it a submission game mode but you cant even pin or arm lock them like you could in the demo, ive been chokin this dude for 10 minutes whats the point

[sharp matrix]

red

[safe loom]

lies

[mortal light]

Okay, so for the first little while I was pretty unhappy with the release

[celest river]

wdym

[gaunt sundial]

Foreplay

[mortal light]

After a couple performance updates and getting used to the new physics

I am pimpin, this game is great :D

[minor breach]

Yeah no they must have supercomputers or smth

[agile spoke]

Thought the devs said actual multiplayer was very unlikely

[minor breach]

Nasa level

[mortal light]

There's no way

Unless they're using like 4x FG

I have a 5080 and a ryzen 7 9800x3d

[celest river]

somebody just fucking test HS on a $500 pc to do optomization

[minor breach]

I thought they said very unlikely in the coming future

[safe loom]

there's no way there's a computer THAT strong

[worldly girder]

They said it was far off due to how many variables would need to be synced between comouters

[true zealot]

its still a big TBD, but the fact that multiplayer is in the game right now (though difficult to pull off) is a sign that they will put more attention to it

[minor breach]

Downgrading is the method 😭

[celest river]

yep

[autumn kindle]

Um guys I saw a video the was using footage of half sword so what should I do

[celest river]

its a multithousand dollar project

[agile spoke]

Fingers crossed. If they could get multiplayer to work it'd be super dope

[celest river]

dude\

wdym to work

i dont even think they have ever tried developing it

[true zealot]

my pc cost 700-ish and im running 70fps on medium graphics

[celest river]

now tell me how much it runs on slums daytime

[wicked depot]

Wretch!

[minor breach]

Mine cost 1100 and im getting about 40-60 fps depending on daytime and number of npcs

[true zealot]

Facing the outside of the map? Tanks me down to around 10-15, facing the wall? high 60s to mid 70s

[worldly girder]

I wish taunting wasn't so strong. You knock a guy over and he surrenders within 3 taunts 99% of the time

[minor breach]

11th gen i7 rtx 2060

[minor breach]

Fr?

[worldly girder]

I have only seen 1 enemy go 4 taunts without surrendering

[safe loom]

how tf do you swing directly down

[agile spoke]

Lotta psychic damage. Two taunts is already inhumane

[minor breach]

Surprisingly for me it runs better compared to the evening

[safe loom]

or is our character just stupid

[gaunt sundial]

Is it just me or does the baron armor feel significantly worse than the alternatives i can get from looting / store

[true zealot]

get muscle to control your weapon, lift cursor up, swing dopwn

[gaunt sundial]

especially the chest

[celest river]

and then theres forest nighttime/dawn (wrong reply lmao)

[frozen radish]

Just... don't taunt?

[worldly girder]

Raise weapon above your head and pull it down

[serene schooner]

i genuinely just gave up and do it at a slight angle, it's somewhat easier

[minor breach]

U can get muscle?

[wet zealot]

I wanna see people try half sword on igpus, like the 890m or the new panther lake b390 or has anyone tried it and gotten results?

[wicked depot]

For real

[true zealot]

yeah

[minor breach]

Theirs like a way to get stronger physically in the game?

[safe loom]

I have near MAX muscle, my stupid weapon keeps going off on a angle

[pure obsidian]

how do you even taunt

[agile spoke]

They're dead from PC combustion

[safe loom]

tap g

[frozen radish]

short press g

[worldly girder]

I stopped, but i shouldnt have to manually avoid making the game absurdly easy

[true zealot]

Yes

[modest estuary]

down the shit river

[celest river]

is it not just by progressing

[minor breach]

Then my game goes to hell and I lose all my shit from a guy 30 ft away from me

[true zealot]

Technically it is

[wicked depot]

no wear heavy stuff I think

Does jumping make you thicc?

[pure obsidian]

Oh so now it's easier to not kill your enemies?

[serene schooner]

i've been told it's just using stamina

[frozen radish]

I mean it's a lesser known mechanic either way, it just doesn't make sense that you're complaining about something so non-critical to gameplay

[minor breach]

I assumed so

[wet zealot]

you sadly don't know anything about igpus😔

[minor breach]

So like u get better stamina and control if you do?

[worldly girder]

Every mechanic is a lesser known mechanic, almost nothing is explained

[true zealot]

yes

[minor breach]

I see

[modest estuary]

yes, wearing armor and jumping works out muscles

[minor breach]

Does it matter what level uou are?

[celest river]

idk when i was lord i went back to see one beggar and i was like a champion and he was the little guy

not too much of a diff

[minor breach]

But noticeable?

[frozen radish]

That still doesn't rebute my point of "You're complaining that a mechanic which is in no way needed to play the game is too strong"

[celest river]

ye

[frozen radish]

I mean just don't taunt

[minor breach]

Ah

[celest river]

early champions are about the same size

[agile spoke]

I know people should never get an igpu when they're able to get a gpu

[worldly girder]

Game is about fighting enemies. I can trivialize this by tapping g. I'd consider that worth fixing

[frozen radish]

Again, simply don't tap G

[warm garden]

if you can literally just win every fight by pressing g 3 times thats a problem with the game

[worldly girder]

They should add an m16 too just for me to not use

[serene schooner]

it's almost easier to forget you can taunt at all

[safe loom]

how tf do they expect me to "drive a spike through his hedgeborn head" when my DUMBASS willie can't hold a poleaxe like a normal human being.

[minor breach]

Good to know, thanks

[frozen radish]

I'd use it for the funny

[warm garden]

gamers will optimize the fun out of any game

[serene schooner]

can't you also just move the sliders to take almost no damage and make enemies take a ton of damage?

[celest river]

yes

but that would also make you a cheater

so no

[frozen radish]

To be fair, I'm pretty sure your strength determines how many times G is required

[serene coyote]

Still better than how user bots

Hoe

Tis 1400's

[wet zealot]

Honestly modern igpus are better then dgpus on laptops because they're more efficient, gives your laptop better battery, and has better cooling. Just search up the b390 performance and see what it does at 50watts (it can ray trace too). And some laptops with the b390 have up to 13+ hours of battery

[warm garden]

but having to press it more times doesnt matter because it still works eventually lol

[tawny anvil]

yes

[worldly girder]

You dont need to keep sending this, everyone has suggestions they want to pick up more attention

[frozen radish]

Again, literally just don't taunt if you want the challenge

[worldly girder]

The challenge shouldnt be optional

[celest river]

attention minimod

[warm garden]

might as well not use weapons if i want the challenge

[frozen radish]

Then do that then

Play how you want to

[celest river]

why have the both of you let it continue for this long

[safe loom]

is it bad that I lowkey want a neck snap option.

[celest river]

its a suboptimal feature that is kinda broken atm thats all to say

[serene schooner]

i think you already can break necks

[worldly girder]

Isnt that already a thing

[mellow lodge]

nah that would be peak

[summer cloud]

That's one way to deal with pesky shields

[warm garden]

grab head and thrust into pillar

[safe loom]

nope

[serene schooner]

i have a screenshot somewhere of a dude's head that got 180'd by some large hammer i made

[safe loom]

not THAT neck snap

[frozen radish]

Consider this, the game is meant to be realistic/accurate in most ways, and if you were a man in armor in the 15th century, would you not surrender if you were knocked down by your foe who holds a weapon?

[wet zealot]

demo?

[worldly girder]

It was in the demo

[celest river]

choking was a damn good addition to this game

[agile spoke]

I'm built different
