i cut off ONE of your legs, why do you wanna get up??
do i gotta cut your OTHER leg?
There is a muscle systeam. The more you run out out stamina and wear heavy armor, you get more strength. That's why you gain weight.
ah I see
they got some insane willpower, ive had a couple times i'd hit like a 3-4 hit combo on their cranium, fall flat on the ground and get up a solid 20-30 seconds later
lmao
damn where do i get on my knees for some more weapons in freeplay bru
too pray i mean
to the devs
@hasty raven Papa please add more weapons
😂
DUDE I ACCIDENTALLY DROPPED A SWORD TO A POOR CHAMPION'S LEG
WHAT HAPPENS?
instant cut.
me want my heavy spear from progression 😢
insure it
what heavy spear
I CUT OFF HIS LEG, ENTIRE. LEG.
Need to tip the smith
Me own brother, its so heavy not even thor himself can pick it up
Why does switching hands take more stamina than actually swinging my poleaxe
If you press X like 5 times your guy is winded. I can swing the axe all day and he doesn't really get tired.
what tf did i just do
In my free play?
fell for the oldest trick in the book
dude, how is your cam so smooth? when i walk it jitters and my arms obscure my vision. is it a mod?
Map
map?
Map
map
The map is stupidly flat
Ahhhhh lol I was like bro is vagueposting king
saw bird today
did you get a picture?
No, flew away.

the bow grappling technique should be used more often
Worked thankss
I agree @grave pecan
wtf happened to your forest
zounds
Do you mean plain of vengaburger
this would be busted in knockdown 🔥
it looks like vr. how do you even get so much control
when will brorest release this
I have to get that good again
half sword is just realistic ig
maybe soon
this really sucks when it happens
you gotta be getting close to them so they rush you
also in the cellar map if you go behind the walls they dont do anything
will they ever add a way to make the npcs heads explode or make it like a glenn rhee twd kinda situation
Smiles at gore
there is
in the itch.io old demo

after a set of days your max increases
some guy said it around the server
and he sent a screenshot of his character with 111kg
indeed i am
alright
bugs?
The New Baron
then whats left for you to release it lad?
dam bro you invisible, and small...
ur so tiny
more spells
bro blended into the background
nice
and once the mod im using to load it into the yard comes out
what spells should i add
@restive barncan you make spells to turn willies to animals
hipfired a headshot
knockback spell
instakill spell but red
like Dev7 says, dragon shout from skyrim, fus ro dah
@restive barni got better idea, shockwave, it slams to willies throwing them away and cut their limbs off
no spells that exist in other games
fireballs
shart
so basically a blast so powerful it pushes willie back so much he falls apart
nah sorry
no clue how
what about telekenesis or whatever
you can take stuff around and throw them at willies
doomslayer sword
only problem i see is the yard map cuz it has nothing to throw other than a willie
some kind of water spell??
thats not a fireball
@restive barnhave another one, quake
close enough
you can do quake spell
half sword doesn't have liquid support
would be fun to take a barrel and bash it at willie's head
whats that
hipfired a shot
causes earth quake
you already showed this
if a spell affects both you and your enemy it's probably not a good idea
did you ever make the poop summon spell
no
what about storm spell
so summons lightning?
causes storm and hit your willie from above
zombify spell or zombie summoning
but you had rain!
i guess
yeah but you can add more things, acid rain for example
that's just a particle system
thatll kill u too
what about a banana peel spell, makes willie immediately slip and eat shit
you make your willie immune to it
idk how to detect player willie
add a summon spell where you can summon lil willies to fight for you
there is like nothing that could detect it ?
maybe make it zombies cuz they're stupid
not nothing
i just don't know
@restive barnoh i got another idea
necromancer
it spawns some powerful willies that will rush your enemy turning him to pieces
the zombies spawn... interestingly
i suggested this bro
@fallen glacier it worked! my game saved. you were right about moving the whole save file out and relaunching
idk how half sword spawns armor on willies
the old enhancer mod had the ability to spawn bosses like knight boss
you said zombies, A DAM ZOMBIE, not a Knight
could the baron actually be killed or nah
this might be some kinda hotfix placebo effect but im wondering if the ai is more resistant to damage now, like i got it above normal and bro still just tanked 2 cuts to the neck without a sound
powerful willies does not means knights
and are zombies powerful, or knights
then zombie baron?
both can be
yeah cuz those existed as blueprints alr in the code
balancing in EA is insane bro
hmmmm
I hope ppl that refunded the game off rip gave it a second chance I've been having so much fun with this game
it's still pretty meh currently
i'm still having a bit of lag but it's mostly with 4 to 5 willies
I didnt refund but my review is still negative atm
and most losses in the EA is just if you fall
after giving them a fair try im starting to realize messers and pret much all 1h weapons are much better in ea
demo willies gave you more chances to get up
@restive barnyou still here ?
messers r so good bro
i have like two of them on my inventory as backups
they're really goated on abyss if ur enemies are unarmored
I actually feel like the combat part of the AI is wayyyyyy worse in the EA. I went back to demo to compare and actually got wrecked a couple times. Meanwhile in EA it has been about 100 in game days since I have died
ye
what about energy blast as spell, possible ?
also the champion/bosses feels more punishing
if you genuinely mess up you die and get sent to the abyss
atp the only thing holding me back is that 98% of enemies carry shields or polearms so its hard to get matched up against something i can fight more fluidly
in EA you can just rob till you become more armored than the champions and then easily kill them
teleportation ?
for me it's poleaxes and polearms bro
and they are always addicted to parrying
idk how
i know polearms well enough to counter them fairly easily, not as much with 1h weapons. but the shields are just absolute fresh shit rn lmao, they deal more blunt damage than some blunt weapon strikes
ahhh, how about spell that snap a willie neck instantly or a spell the lift him of the ground a bit and then crush him
i alr have an anti gravity spell
two oneshots
I'm so disappointed that shields aren't destructible now in EA. If I hack at a shitty wooden shield for a while with a poleaxe it should break or AT LEAST transfer some blunt damage through. Right now they are basically force fields that instantly stop all damage
and the first one ?
the snap neck spell
i don't know how
just gotta work around them, the small shields are fairly easy but the big tower ones are just obnoxious to fight
they literally stop all my spells
probably will be in next updates if they see people asking for it
People HAVE been asking for it since at least the playtest
Literal magic force field confirmed
you can do spell that hold willie in his place and start removing his limbs until it finish him with removing his head ?
realism
are people actually pirating halfsword
I don't have any problem defeating them eventually my point is moreso that it feels goofy to have my weapon just stop cold if it touches a shield with nothing transfered through
actually that good spell idea
real
@restive barnyou can actually do force field spell that with enough hits if shatters sending splinters flying in every direction
those NPCs with shields on their backs behave weirdly. It makes my poleaxe hits either not do anything or gravitate away.
i did a force field but no shattering
wall
that green stuff is the force field ?
yes
is it some sort of poison ?
kk
a great example of shield physics that just happened to me
slowly relearning the hands movement
sinister gameplay
downright evil gameplay
yeah honestly good thing we got games like these to keep people like you at bay 😭
Literally exactly this. It stops EVERYTHING cold in its tracks. 0 force transfer through at all
what do you mean by that
Like I just hit a magic field that saps all energy from the blow. I could understand if it reduced it and spread it out but it's just ridiculous rn
at least polearms are fairly parryable now
tripped a guy with a rondel
did yall know u can thrust mode with fists
its a game changer I just found out today
yeah
if game cost money, people will pirate
more like ripped his legs out but i see the vision
Yeah it's actually useful in this version of the game, it used to be weak af in the older versions
that is awesome to hear
like really the only cons of this game is that it still needs more content, fix slums and forest every other map is great performance-wise
still astonishes me people actively trash it still in steam forums
people expect way too much sometimes imo
its a fun game ive had more fun with it than any AAA release since elden ring
I would very much be able to control where the fuck I walk
Yeah, and with 6 updates already since release with the next one supposedly being an actual content update I'm not too worried
Every iteration of the game they've released has been a major jump in tech with major issues that get ironed out quickly
i mean slums is already much better, ive gone from 20 fps to 60-70+
The problem remediates as your character's weight increases
and the more you get hit the more you'll stumble
so just dont get hit
the slowly walking down slopes problem?
I feel like this latest update stiffened up the wrists a bit (at least some weapons I used to have issues using work now) but I think they could do with some more
they should let you disable keeping money and items from previous runs, its such a pain when i create a new character to edit the save file to remove money
the character not going in the direction I press because the terrain is slightly angled
Ill never trash on this game but its very hit or miss about the performance, I legitimately cannot play this game as it doesnt go above 10fps even on low settings at 1080p
ok that one you have a point but thats why i just avoid slums and non flat maps like forest
Also give me an option to remove the plancon from the game plz
Shit is OP as hell
But some people get decent performance with worse pcs
You are leaving out a lot of issues honestly
I would like to obliterate every single piece of data in existence of the zombie mode fr
Weak wrists, polearm handling issues, grabbing weapons the wrong way around, switching hands costs HELLA stamina (more than swinging your weapon), obv the bad performance, combat AI is wayyyyy less skilled than they were in the demo, 1 handed stabbing STILL doesn't work, 2 handed stabbing in general is really hit or miss with all weapons but especially polearms. Many MANY bugs (some of which occur literally every single round for me).
Shields magically stop all force transfer. Lacking precision in the swings. Edge alignment on swings is very hit or miss. I can go on...
Lots and lots of issues with the game. You are doing the devs no favors by pretending everything is fine. Make feedback threads and report this stuff so that they can fix it and turn this into a great game.
the thing they need to fix the most besides performance is probably the scuffed 2 handed grabbing
devs got their work cut out for em.
i get that shit the most where willie just grabs his poleaxe dumbly
A lot of performance fix still
They have pulled it back before they will probably do it again but it will take time.
1 handed stab does work you just arent doing it right, 2 handed stabbing also does work you just arent doing it right, especially accurate with polearms, swings are arguably easier and more intuitive to get accurate and consistent swings, you could go on but youd just be complaining lol
Alt stabbing literally doesnt work with 1 hand lol what are you on about
cause of the high stance?
yeah just push past that right or left and you get your thrust guards again
you have to make side to side motions, its not so much up and down anymore for 1h weapons
my biggest issue is that the mouse sets the aim position for the weapons, and the character will accelerate the weapon towards the aim point, but not decelerate, so you get a shit ton of springiness to any movement that's half fast
I think the biggest thing they need to do is drop a proper tutorial
There's so many complex systems at play and none of them are explained
that too
Second most important thing they need to do is https://discord.com/channels/1043854763189600337/1473932787378552875
also fuck off with not being able to stand up
I've laid there with nobody damaging me like I'm trying to take a nap
Is this a stab to you? Are you unironically smoking crack?
Anyone know if there's any plans to tune down damage/knockdown. I really feel like i'm fighting moth people that can't get grazed by a single stick without a shower of gore exploding outwards
Turn down gore and damage in game settings?
I want the alt stab to be a straight in stab like it was in the demo.
That was actually useful. This is not.
theres double left click
not actual gore lil bro. Like I go to choke them with a polearm and the stick barely grazes them and then just die of brain damage on the spot
How am I supposed to shiv somebody through the ribs with this?
Works as it did in the demo right now but ONLY on left hand :/
right hand is still really fucked
Lacks control and precision compared to demo alt stabbing. The control scheme was literally fine I do not know why they changed it.
It would help if we could actually rebind the double click stab to something that isnt LMB and doesnt throw off where you are aiming by pressing it.
But that, like so many other things in EA, doesn't work.
they changed alt to make it useful for parries as 1h swords failed miserably at that in demo, something you clearly don't find useful cause you cant. yet you can still use alt for stabbing with proper timing and spacing. im sorry that you werent given a stiff rigid sawing motion to stab
chat is this spell op
Actual skill issue if you couldnt do 1h parries in the demo. It was completely fine. This change was unnecessary, unintuitive, and completely unexplained. With proper timing and spacing you can also stab people (on accident) without using alt or double click at all. It's less useful than it was in the demo and I will stand on that all day long.
an actual unironic "skill issue" in reply to something that is visibly fucked up is crazy
right hand stab motion turns into cerebral palsy simulator
like it is just blatantly not functioning lol
i think it's okay
i never said alt was perfect rn, but im saying it has a new designated function, its original function is still possible with practice and time spent working on it, requires more setup.
This is what I was saying earlier by doing the devs no favors. These dudes are literally just glazing. You see it for every popular game, the devs can do no wrong.
It is clearly broken.
this is something that i was thinking about too
its not specifically broken, its of a different intent than your willing to use it for, ill admit its not as good as it was in demo for stabbing, but you could just double click too? alt works very well for stabbing with any other type of weapon, but they gave alt a new parry stance as its the one type of weapon that generally cant parry overhead strikes until now
Unless you can point to where a dev said "yea we purposefully made thrusting with right hand completely dogshit and unusable" you're just baselessly fellating for the joy of the game
it just doesn't make sense remotely at all lol
I used to be able to neck snipe with the stab in the demo
The auto parry in the demo could 100% parry overheads if you held a high guard though.
especially when all the other controls are pretty good
I feel like I'm getting worse the more I play ea
against polearms? you mean to tell me in demo you were consistently parrying polearm overhead strikes with a 1h sword?
dont even know how autoparry works
just.. halfsword, 99% block
do you think you're supposed to parry a polearm with a 1h sword?
He's talking about specifically 1h swords like the messer
ah
does this "new mechanic" fuck up so crazy good that your willie can just block the full force of a polearm
spoiler alert: the rigidity isn't a feature
and you let my entire point go over your head and boiled it down to 'baselessly fellating for the joy of the game' i love this game sure hate me for it but i provided legitimate reasoning and its up to you to understand that or not
You couldnt really tbh
what are y'all on about
Polearms definitely not but you arent realistically parrying a real polearm with a messer. 2 handed swords and lighter weapons yeah 100% you could parry that in the demo all day.
your entire point is you crossing your leg over with a monocle and shaking your head like WE aren't understanding some shit when you clearly are either
A: completely out of your fucking mind
or
B: completely misunderstanding what we're talking about
it's not that the point is over out head. a dude posted a video of it and you're like "yeah you just don't see the vision"
alt function with 1h sword in right hand i think
now they're just kinda screaming at eachother
Again they are literally just glazing. This discord is completely full of them. The devs can do no wrong. If you notice buggy physics, it's a skill issue. Etc etc seen it 1000x
you are realistically parrying polearms with a messer, and in ea you can. with alt usage because they changed its function. and you could maybe deflect 2 handed swords or axes but it was inconsistent and more often than not would get you killed for trying, thats not skill issue. thats as factual as me and you agreeing that shields are busted
gimme magic spells modman
I still have yet to hear any mention of dev confirmation that the visibly bugged and shitty behavior is intended and actually a new feature that removed an old feature but only for the right hand
the most photogenic game ive played
Dawg you are not parrying a 4kg poleaxe with a messer in one hand over your head in the weakest position your arms could be in. I'm sorry.
You're getting a lotta work yellow boi
Not realistically anyways
all im saying is that the devs have greater intentions for this button than a back and forth sawing motion for rigid boney easy stabbing, and im willing to defend that point with the acknowledgement that it isnt perfect and needs improvement, like every feature in this game
lol
back to square one
"YOU JUST DON'T SEE THE VISION...."
the vision that is completely unexplained anywhere and only applies to the right hand
such a funny argument
i dont know what else to say man, im just telling you the way that it is and if you wanna hate then go ahead
I've never seen such a weird ass hill to die on
im not dead on it im standing here casually wondering why your so butthurt over a button being changed
I see what they are going for my point is its stupid. Give me the demo 1h stabbing back and I will continue deflecting attacks from above like normal. There was no need for this and I don't think sacrificing the utility and range of 1 handed stabs for some gimmicky parry stance is worth it IMO
if you want to tell us the way it is then show where the devs stated this is a feature for the right hand bro 😂
it's clearly just broken as fuck
know what i couldnt show you where, cause the vast majority of things are all just in the air atm and the devs dont make many statements
So you are basically just assuming this was their intent?
if they gave us keybinds to rebind the old stab behavior or even rebind the double left click stab and keep the new alt high guard stance (for people who like that) it'll be the best of both worlds
This is basically all I'm asking for
as rushed as this game may be, they wouldnt entirely rework alt for one weapon in particular purely by mistake, it was intentional
the default assumption should be "ah it's broken but that's okay"
not
"I SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE HERE.... IT'S A WORK OF ART..... IT TAKES TIME TO BREW.... LIKE A NICE COFFEE"
thats a much better idea ngl
like alright brah
so much shi could be fixed if they let us bind our own controls
If they want to add a high guard stance that's COOL I'm actually all for it. Don't sacrifice the stabbing for it though
you blow it way out of proportion for no reason lol
you can btw
for the most part at least
theres always double click stabbing too, its different but imo it was better for 1h swords in demo already
I mean you are kind of talking out of your ass by your own admission man. He has a point, exaggerated as it may be. You are extrapolating that it's probably intentional (which we don't even know for sure). Our argument is that even if it is intentional it should be reverted or rebound to a different control, to preserve the utility from 1 handed straight stabbing.
double left clicking was always too delayed for me so i never used it
I really am not a fan of double click stabbing. It is noticeably weaker than an alt stab and lacks range and rigidity
Plus the actual action of double clicking affects your grip and how you were holding the weapon
It jitters a bit
say gex
but on that same concept, havent you guys also put yourself in a similar situation by saying its only a 1 handed situation? just stab with your left hand then
Which can really throw off your aim if you are aiming for example at a weakspot
i get that part i can recall the distinct difference in feeling between them in demo, alt was definitely a lot more rigid in the arm movement, but i found that came at the benefit of being more flexible and easier to land stabs from different stances
I don't really understand what you mean by this lol. We still went from being able to stab with both hands to only being able to stab with the left hand.
I want to be able to alt stab with either hand. If they want this high guard thing put it on a different keybind
Half my issue with this is your side of the argument is implying that the devs gave us LESS control intentionally but ONLY for right hand
now it's so hard
like it just makes 0 sense
is this a bad blade design 
im not left handed so i dont use my sword in my character's left hand
maybe if they took up smoking crack as a hobby i guess
there's always that possibility !
Or improve double click stabbing enough to be as good as alt stabbing was and let me rebind it to a thumb button on my mouse instead so it doesn't fuck up my aiming.
next dlc is going to be a control rework lol
thats what i was thinking
hb keeps trying to defend this piece of garbage and i cant understand it 😭
thats the thing though, while i do agree the devs might be smoking some shit with the obvious decisions they make, this is more about them having given you more control but for a different function, atp i dont want to seem like im opposing your point cause ultimately its an opinion as is mine, neither can exactly be discredited
In addition. Whatever is going on with the thrust mode right now (yeah it's still called THRUST MODE....) is not even remotely usable for parrying. I mean you pull your mouse back slightly and it snaps way above your head. Like idk wtf this would possibly be used for an how you could possibly imagine it was a feature
like stamina loss on stance switch, thats genuine lunacy
I actually fuck with the thin blades personally but the guard is too large IMO
its totally useful for parries, the more ive been practicing it the better it works lol
Can you send a video of this aforementioned parry activity
he sticks them in his pee hole

hes taking the advice and wondered if the pommel should also be small or should be super large
give it a try
dont judge without trying it urself
More control for a different function and ENTIRELY removing the original function it had. Ideally we need both. Like I said I like the idea of a high guard in theory but it NEEDS to be a different button and to preserve the ability to just stab normally if I want to.
I mean this is borderline a nonsensical pose to hit
now i dont want this to come off like its the fuckin god form parry key to victory, but the first motion in this clip is an example of how it can be used
what the hell does this protect
he's just ignoring what you say at this point give up
Pommel size depends on where he wants the weight balance to be.
or this first parry too, also used alt
me and him are both highkey sped and dont know how to figure that out
Where the weapon balances on the stick when you make it lol
You want it a little bit in front of the guard
bro this is you using something for a very niche scenario. it's not a feature just because you found a small silver lining
IIRC
you CAN use broken shit
sorry i didnt mean to not reply, i agree with you there that ultimately having both seperately would be the ideal outcome, i dont want to pick one over the other ive just been trying to show how its not entirely a dysfunctional useless stance
because blocking a swing from my right side or above my head is niche??
those are two extremely common and replicable instances
is it not common for axe users to do overhead strikes?
Nah I totally get your point. I'm not saying it's completely useless just that I'm personally REALLY not happy about the removal of the right alt stab ESPECIALLY because IMO the double click stabbing really sucks. Especially now that the gamebesons and mail actually work, you need more force to stab through stuff now.
I mean the idea of just stone cold stoic blocking an overhead axe attach with a 1 handed sword is niche in just about every world i think. that's not a very realistic expectation
like your dude just snapped into pose and sucked that whole thing up like it was an ice cream scoop
IF it's a feature it's dogshit but it's looking very very much like you just found a use for a broken feature lol
i dont wanna fight your point with just insults but i havent seen or heard much from you in terms of parrying
you havent even tried
This game is srs bsns only didn't you know?
Feeding the fire with gasoline
Because 90% of the activity you can do with it is nonsensical, nonfluid, and forced. I can TRY TO USE IT but it's clearly a nonfeature
he said ty for the advice and now he and i quote "can cut through the freak subhuman peasants with ease" so id say the advice was quite helpful
any time I "could" use this "feature" there's like 4 different better options
i think you and I kinda got a bit above ourselves but ultimately agree on the same ideas, and when you bring gambeson and mail into it i agree it would be ideal to have a rigid stab form again
Wait how does aiming work with 2?
hehe haha im so ironic and stoic. i dont take anything seriously and people who actually are passionate about things are CRINGE. if i display passion in my interests i might get made fun of on xitter so i live a subdued existence so people think im cool
It only aims the one in your right hand
theres nothing else i could say to help you understand man. im sorry its not the thrust stance that you depended on but its not entirely useless, you just fail to find any meaning or function in it
Yeha I don't mean to argue really. I think having separate binds for both would be ideal.
also i was wondering how one gets a crossbow
we both love the game, thats what counts
🤝
this how MEN be handling shit
Hell yeah lol enjoy
@mighty nexus
we overcome our differences
New Half Sword copy pasta lore just dropped
dont bring obobna into this bro
You can quote me on it I'll stand on that
I made a simple joke..
What the fuck.
Sorry bro I'm trying to quit nicotine and just going for heads 😭 I don't really mean it
You wrote a whole ass nothing burger paragraph dawg
Okay
he had a chud-attack its fine
need a rating on this clip
the more i play with new alt the more i realize it has the same effect on parrying as demo alt had on stabbing, it just kinda does it for you or structures the whole process
is this a good build for my willie (ignore my dog in the first pic)
I think the devs were high when making the baron armor pieces because why we got baron foulds and standart but not the haubark or golden shoes wtf 😂😭
Go for mine 
Solid 8.5/10 the slap at the end was quality
Needs more hulk
the baron has regular shoes now I think
how does one achieve more hulk
doesnt have the armored footwear anymore
Damn you play Nuclear Option I can't roast a fellow Boscali bro
It feels better and worse at the same time. The punches it does have connect better but it's like Skyrim punching now
every time I go for a grab and punch I just end up slapping them or punching the back of their head
on the bright side, uppercuts are a bit easier?
I guess lol
they do feel a bit weirder tho
we swing to fast in general now lol, I'm on 450 dpi and I'm swinging super fast now
He doesn't actually wear armored shoes lol the shoes you get from his set are regular ass shoes unfortunately
So go for the toes I guess lol
wth theres mods ?? how does that work cause its not on any of the mod stuff i use 
I've had to lower my sensitivity in game, Never had to do that in the demo
Yeah I had to as well
and it's still fast lol
Lightest mouse movement and Willie's swinging for the fences
I used to use my entire arm before and used to drag my mouse
now I have to use just my rist & fingrs to control it
the mod I await is the no night mod
my god what I wouldn't do for that
bro does not look like he forsaw this outcome
me want blunderbuss
WRIST FLICK OF DESTRUCTION
This jit is a day-owl!
or i guess matchlock for this game's time?
I love bullying commonors with my baron set and sword
oh no the EU people are up now
I think the baron sword is meant to be half sworded because my goodness it is just horrendous to swing
Its basically a long messer lol
Long messer with sword grip
and a hammer is basically a rounded mace 😱 😂
jk im just playin
I mean
That aint wrong
A poleaxe with the hammer end is just a long hammer
🤔
Sorry, forgot to respond, it really depends on the mod but there's a Half Sword Nexus page

I haven't been able to 2 hand grip stools, what's up with that? It's better than bare hands but in the demo you could whip a stool around with both hands
why would we pause?
beautiful smile on his face : )
Right click does nothing when you're holding an improvised weapon
Same with the frying pan or whatever it is
wtf does center crosshair even do?
i keep checking it but nothing happens
and its really hurting my feelings
And even something like the big wooden candle thingy would be better with both hands (although I've somehow managed to use it pretty effectively too)
what crosshair
go in settings
For crossbow maybe?
But I think it was already an option in the demo and there was no crossbow there
was finna say this, i was using it and was wayy more accurate with the crossbow with the crosshair
maybe not then? weird
is it weird i got erect upon seeing a willy's dual cheeks combo just hanging there on the back of his waist
nothing shows for me
controls
btw what level does bevor unlocks in trader menu
yes i activated it but nothing showed
exactly
wait it doesnt show for yall?
does it show for you
plus i dont think it will have any use in combat except if you were using crossbow
yeah i can boot it up again and see if i can get it to show i only used it once
w in the SHATTTT
I think you might have the mod that fixes said crosshair
You goof

early access has been out for a while now and i still play demo cause i don't have money

How is performance with latest hotfix?
does anybody know why my games just a black screen whenever i load it up
Bit better imo
Does anyone know of any mods to help with the Fodian like movement in EA?
I'm really struggling to get past peasent tourney because my good sir keeps tripping
I'm on my 12th attempt 🆘
hire some mercenaries
mercs help you in tourneys
What
💔 they need to have a marker for where mercs actually help
Yeah
i didnt know that before and i soloed the commoner tournament
LOL
it was agony
same for peasant one
what should the sixth spell be
3
3
2
antigravity spell
I've wasted 12 hours of my life 😢
Commoner is messer right
Because I think I'm on commoner
You always have acess to the messer if i recall
I swear peasent is only mace
@grizzled salmon You can also find weapons in the arenas and from enemies.
You know you can loot right? Because, unless you have watched others, it isn't obvious, wasn't for me anyway! 😛
I managed to figure that one out!
Only recently though
I do hope they fix the movement, some of the deaths I've had recently are so annoying
I fought a guy with a staff who sprinted across the room, roundhouse kicked me in the head and slapped me out of the circle in one hit
yeah true, i hate missing a not even hard swing and my willy belly flops on the ground and get impaled 2 seconds later
bros bowling
lmao
is new update good?
can you still dual wield bucklers in EA?
hotfix
yes but you will get put on ur ass before you get close enough to use it
just the swings of normal arms send you hurling
without the weapon
knees and wrists have been atrophied
and then they went and made it worse in a hotfix
book
yeah, especially when you first start a new run it's horrible
I've been stuck on peasant for so long I'm actually sort of strong now
still can't beat the damn tourney though
im on NG++ but it doesnt feel like i can have any real skill
because of how impossible the physics are now its just random swinging
outside of polearms
before the patch
before the patch polearms had lots of control
I just use the rake, two handed candlestick or flail right now
carl, that kills people
so?
I live by the bonk
bomk the mans
yep
liver blows effective
i'd parry it
the first time I accidentally poked someone in the throat with the pointy end of it I almost choked from laughing
you can kinda choke people
are you sure
if you get the pole along their neck
you mean just hold it half sword style horizontally in front of you and run at them?
when online multiplayer comes out i should probably make a version of the spellbook that would work in multiplayer
I see two downsides to the muscle system. The start of a character is rough, and also because you get more strength as you play along, the control you have over a weapon is never consistent, till you hit max strength!
yeah if you get they neck they choke you can also grab they mouth and they choke too
I wouldn't get my hopes up for online multiplayer tbh, the physics are too hard and there would be massive desync issues
unless the devs have said that it's for sure happening which I missed
firefist....
this isnt quite true but it is true that its a lotta work that they would leave for last
Also, does anyone know why they didn't make free mode have every item from the start?
For better testing I guess?
she gone call me baby boo
LAN parties are gonna make a come back
The opponent
she gon call me baby boo
because its a "full game" now and just like with bad fighting games and worse sandbox games ou have to unlock sandbox toys in the campagin
clap noises
Bad answer nephew
theodore hops on the beat
Nightmare freddy in the studio
I mean, all we need is a completed save, but yeah. I hope they add many more options to free mode, and add the option to do endless custom runs! Where you can select the pool of items the enemies can have and the number of enemies you fight at a time!
lmao ts spell is so op
I'm sure there's mods for that but it should be in the game
Yeah, for sure!!
There was enhancer for the demo, you could spawn items and npcs. But like you said, we need it in-game!
Hoping next update adds option to choose if we fight zombies or humans in Abyss! And gets rid of the crashes people are getting!
anybody else had problems since the last hotfix?
i keep getting a blue circle around buttons
makes it harder to click on things
and its as if im constantly holding down D
only problem i noticed is the game now fatal crashes whenever i die with no abyss (so fatal ccrash after the fade to white)
like my character keeps moving to the right constantly
it feels really heavy on the right
i cant do anything without it moving to the right
so i hold down A and it doesnt do much
why cant i take the golden armor
you have to earn it
so do i just kill him again and again till i get it
typically free mode means different things for different games. Free mode doesn't always mean sandbox, and they've stated they don't intend for free mode to be sandbox in Half Sword. In this case, you have to unlock things in progression for them to appear in free mode. Which is fine imo. I think a lot of people have a misunderstanding about what free mode is suppose to be. Even the demos free mode didn't give you access to everything from the start.
You get a piece per kill, so you have to kill him about 10 times or so
But you get the beak for free and possibly the sword if you disarm him
Can you somehow buy more bolts for the crossbow?
I hate how op polearms are 😭
Basically necessary once you get to the actually high tiers
half sword is so fun
Will there be like more updates progession wise in the game? or will it always just be like you gotta beat the barron multiple times to get his amrour
Would assume so, this is only a portion of the full game!
yea because i just beat the barron for the first time i hope they add more the game was rly fun
this might be the best armor set possible
I personally love fighting in minimal armor! From the full armor, I prefer the one with the red straps, you posted yesterday I think?
Haven't unlocked them yet
my beloved...
as in this?
It would a missed opportunity, in my opinion, if they don't include a sandox mode at some point!
I agree, a sandbox mode would be fun
are you not able to go over 9999 pfemmings?
is it just me or is trying to stand up in EA significantly harder than it was in the playtest? I just got my ass beat 3 rounds in a row because I fell over lmao
yeah and i feel like you fall over way easier and its the complete opposite for the enemies
i feel the opposite, you just don't do it right imo
For me, I would say, sometimes it feels it takes a long time and others not!
why did he think this was necessary
I guess I HAVE been getting unlucky these past three rounds since the enemies manage to nail me in the head while I'm trying to stand up
i didn't even hit him, he just rushed at me and speeded up the cauldron behind me to the point where it hit his neck
i love when they knock themselves out with the cauldron its hilarious
i love it when the jestes convinces them it's worth it for 5 pfennings to fight a maniac in full plate armor with a 4m long polearm
it's historical :^)
is this historical
close enough
Nice shot!!
i made the ultralight variant just now, same length but 45 times cheaper and with half the weight
i was actually a demon with the weapon throws earlier
do you prefer lighter or heavier polearms? i feel like lighter has worked better for me
i prefer the utter demolition force of the heavy weapons
understandable
helmet and bone cracking power, in exchange for long wind up times
theres a barrel errand? ive always had to take the drunk dude home
imagine missing
yes
yeah you get a barrel with a dark souls boss healthbar in the basement and you have to break it apart
I was hurt from a fight and couldn't even afford to heal so I went into it with only one working arm and I think without a weapon (that one was an accident)
lmaoo just getting your ass beat by a barrel
3kg light variant is still very strong
never knew that was even a thing
ive gotta try that
you can see the helmet it threw off
but the compromise is that body hits now don't instantly crush bones, you have to aim
knocking their helmets off are the most satisfying hits ever
you can punch and kick it apart but it has a tendency to bounce around and hit you back lmao
I think I tried to corner it against the other barrels, tripped and hit my head, screen went dark and everything
thats hilarious
damn, the backhand slap of disrespect
OH MY GOD WHAT HAPPENED
the sanest retribution when i get to do it
retribution the best mode ill give up on purpose sometimes just to get one
do the souls in the abyss actually match what the guy you killed had on and was using? I feel like they do but it could just be random
one hit and he couldn't get up
yes they do, i once killed a baron and i had him there
as well as that drunk sponsor
the fact that it hit this hard despite going so slow is concerning
I think it was arrow time
i got accustomed to my opponents
whuh
wait, the drunk guy from the errand mission?
yes
i wanna see what it does to the baron
video proof
yeah same clothes and everything, i didnt think it lined up but to be fair everytime i end up in the abyss i have like 60 souls to fight
https://medal.tv/games/half-sword/clips/m9kV9mcYY3DUTM7am?invite=cr-MSxDdzcsNTIyMzQxNDAz&v=6 look at this crazy neck stab
holy
oof
chefs kiss 
yes
bro my weapon is op
and my character too strong
Just lost a good character because he kept stepping to the left by himself no matter what i did, how to avoid this
That's how "Bullet time" is called in this!
i cba
tbh i deserved to be killed but imagine being tortured irl, facing the one who kill you in the afterlife, and being cut off limbs methodically again 😭
ran myself into a wall and died because of this once, all i did was restart the game and it fixed and hasnt done it since
Aight i see
dear god 😭
It happens from time to time, don't know how to fix
HIRE MERCANARIES
I WILL
i did it 11 times by now btw
i have like 5 videos of killing drunk patrons
whats your issue with the drunken guy
the supernova
"I CAST DIVINE LIGHT"
that's your pc after trying to calculate sweat physics
"Half cast"
it's actually a fire spell but for some reason the hall map overuses bloom effects
ROUND 3/7 LORDS TOURNEY OMGG
you got this 🙏
Good luck!
he once knocked me out and now i'm on my revenge detour
5/7 ROUNDS YESS
showcase of the new 3kg ultralight 4m polearm, not as effective but damn does it go quick
imma firin my lazer
rioters hate this one trick
oh yeah fuck him up 🙏
dumbahh
i'ma make a video of soloing a baron with my new polearm
[doom music]
fight the 2 normal dudes and have your mercs distract the baron and slice his headoff
well nvm your ass
BRO
Hold the beast! For whales are red!
it took me like 3 tourneys to even beat the baron for the first time dw lmao
do u have mercenaries
BROOO
i accidentally broke this guy's head with 1 kick
holy shit brainrot that isnt muted
may we not finden a path of piss!
wait does this server automute certain words?
I TRY AGAIN
ye
there was a list somewhere wayyyy up in general chat i think its all just brainrot terms
gamers cannot be trusted with sіx sеvеn
theres gotta be some he forgot about
i tried to say six out of seven rounds and it got muted
wait did I do this for no reason? six seven
oh yeah it only works with the actual numbers
and I still went and got ukrainian lowercase i and e 😄
six seven
deserved >:3
if you hire 2 before the tourney its a fair fight the whole time lmao minus the baron
I BEAT THE GAME
When are the devs going to fix the phasing of weapons through enemies when you try to combo them
RAHHHHHHH
now you gotta keep going
wdym
for all baron pieces
theres more?
idk how i feel about it its taking me forever to grind these armor pieces
grind more
who wna see my character
touche
post it
soon™
I really hope they will do something with our character holding a weapon, I just made something for almost 6k gold and when I was holding G my character fell and dropped it, now I don't have the weapon in lobby anymore.
fuck u baron
lmao
Flamethrower or smthng
spellbook
why is slums laggy 😠
Where is it? Or its a mod? xd
mod
how do i beat the abyss if there are 0 souls after me
how many souls do i need to cleanse
Will be bascinet in Half Sword?
@restive barn send the mod
Question does the new update improve performance by a lot?
does dying in persist abyss reset my progress?
Guys, I tryhard with the demo but I don't know if the full paid game is worth it. What do you think? it's profitable?
tks you bro
nein
SELL
Slums load a huge area in comparison to the arena. I think that is causing issues! You can notice it when you look towards the open area compared to towards the wall!
I put in a lot of effort to make a banger video and got age restricted. Enjoy.

🥀
I don't know if the release changed it, but in the demo, does anyone else have a problem with trying to punch/thrust forward holding alt and ending up looking all the way down
+200 fps
so much for optimisations lmao
just didnt load
ig it works
i'm starting to wonder if half gauntlets with mail attached aren't just straight up better than full gauntlets because it has mail instead of skin
yes, they broke it in ea
he'll never see this coming
boobs
🤔
Why is it there?
It has to be there for some reason.
spellbook mod is becoming a part of the base game, the devs are sneak peeking it
Idk but there is one on alley and lord torney map too
who will win
Guy on the right
Mmmm I like what I hear
The person making picture
the campfire keeper in the background
Imo he still got chances
He is gonna haunt you now though. He will get you eventually
he won because he stopped needing to care about his material needs
