erm, so i found a bug
currently, testing ur weapon at the weaponsmith is bugged, you can't hold g to leave
but if you sheathe the crafted weapon (without paying) and leave to the menu, u will keep it for yourself
no fucking way
Hey dudes, do yall know if the rondel is the only reverse grip dagger? Also, you should be able to switch gripa
i just got a 200+ money mace for FREE
you can also hit G to exit to forge and you still keep it
nvm
I made a long sword and have been using it as a pointy staff
spawns in crates in the forest map from what i could find
Does anyone know more or less when will the next update come out?
any success in using the cup as a weapon?
thinking about it
I just sell the abyss loot
guys when i try to put on leg armor in progression mode it just doesn't let me, how can i fix? please help a pesent cut my leg off with a small axe and i died
you need a specific type of hose i think, don't know which one
hose?
pants
Oh alr I'll try to find out which one works, thanks

How strong is my willie? holy
Watch Untitled by Obeseusthegourmandizer and millions of other Half Sword videos on Medal. #halfsword
you actually ened an arming shirt, or whatever its called
the hosen dont really matter
i think i use the starting hosen and its fine
its as hirt with little knots around it
How's performance with the new hotfix
i dont have AMD but it didnt make a difference
god i fucking dig the big sallet with bevor
Arming doublet, you need an arming doublet for the top part of the leg armor, it's a type of shirt (you need a shirt because it's where you lace the greaves IRL)
im actually gonna try the game on my own pc at home now
might stream it live if you wanna see how it performs after hotfix my twitch is in my about me lol
ngl youre gonna die
womp womp ill give it a try hehe https://www.twitch.tv/im_wompwomp
Performance from my point of view was not terrible, ok on most maps except for slums, the ui seemed buggy though, and also the physics and damage felt off… but otherwise the game feels like an early access game, or like a Bethesda game on launch day…
“feels early access”
early access game
yea
Yeah exactly people are shitting themselves and meanwhile we are Probally playing an alpha build of the game…
It just seems stupid to me to be so mad at the devs after you bought something unfinished, I understand excepting perfect stability and performance from a release build but not from an early access that you could reasonably predict would have bugs and performance issues, early access is not for the faint of heart
This is the internet a lot of people are chronically online muppets addicted to outrage
And convinced they're part of a movement to fight greedy developers
anyone else seen that video of the raccoon eating grapes with his little hands
Man.... having to fight 115 zombies because i did well in the game just feels anti fun. 🙁
how do i get ammo for the crossbow
i want to get my last kit of ram
but
its like 100$
but
i have another pc with the same speed
You can go for less lethality, or talk to the seer every now and then to either fight them a few at a time or just pay him a few gold to take care of them.
Beautiful
just talk to the seer and get rid of the zombies every night, then death stops being scary
they need to limit how many souls you can purge
per day
maybe 5 per day
or increase the price 10x
youll never understand down low in armor until you start scouting out the abyss for cuirasses
you can just fight a champion and steal their stuff
ive learnt that only once i got
good armor though
i mean every now and then i see a cool piece and nick it off
90% of my gear is stolen
anyways
i wonder if theres an ultimate challenge
apparently theres another rank other than the lord
technically the tournament is
maybe we'll fight the jester
baron
but then you just reset back down to lord
nah they lied about that
no jester card
..so we wont fight the jester..
or pit card
what the fuck man..
maybe they'll release it in a month or so
i hope
did they?
for some reason i dont get cool stuff in the shop
I wonder how much stuff got pushed back it's obvious something went wrong a month or so ago
i saw a guy with some really cool
they don't even have an icon for some reason
red armor?
with a something ontop of it
and it was red
ahh
im so
sleepy
no luck with black armor set
so far
only cuisses
it might've been removed
there are darker armor sets
but they aren't like the demo
and you can't customize your armor
probably next major update
coat of arms customization/armor customization
yeah honestly the game doesn't have as much replayability as I hoped
especially when we don't even have a proper free play mode
the spikes in the hall dont even get enough play
and they fucked up the balancing so bad fighting is incredibly boring
since hall is at a point where you get full plate enemies
havent checked free play yet
might not check
a proper free play mode would've fixed that problem
it's just random battles with no proper customization
you can't choose the map, you can't select all the new armors and you can't customize your enemies
no friendlies either
so worse than the demo by a mile
i wouldnt say its worse
i wont come back to the demo
i just wont play this either
character struggles so hard to hold a poleaxe
this is just wild
How many enemies are in each fight
Fighting a horde of 50 is fun though
This will be half Sword in 2012

The knight in black is an old fan of my channel and asked me at the harness fencing event to fight me in a couple of duels. He is a very good hema and harness fencer, so I took no account whatsoever. Also spezial thanks to the film crew who recorded this duel. Check out Adrian Martin: https://www.youtube.com/@brightstonepictures and Lasse van Sc...
Hey does anyone know how the quiver for the crossbow works? Because it randomly dissapears for me..
yeah, i don't know why it does that either. eventually one time it just stayed with me so i kept it
Thank you so much bro
It generally runs fine, except for one map
so uhhhh
i remember yesterday someone (and myself) was a little sad there werent sabatons from what i could tell
HOWEVER
i found some
they were in this chest in the barons hall
The reviews acted like the whole game was unplayable
yeah, idrk what the issue is for a lot of people
i have mid tier stuff and it runs pretty good (minus slums)
I have a top tier AMD chip and a 3080ti
So maybe I'm way beyond rec specs
I honestly think the game got review bombed or something
i think it just suffered from success, literally
it EXPLODED in popularity and people expected the world of it
I'm playing on a 4060 and a 5800x
the preformance issues are a bit of an issue though
like if people literally cant run the game on good hardware i get it
where is the crossbow in free mode?
It's not
Then how are people playing free mode with it
You need to find it in the forest map, insure it and then you can use it in free mode
kk thanks
At least the devs are pushing out hotfixes
The subreddit has no nuance because its reddit
They think the devs are hiring bots and shills
Anyone know how to get the crossbow?
you can find em in the crates by the cart on the woods map
to be able to reload it you also need to find a bolt bag
they usually dont spawn at the same time
but if you have the crossbow held when you load into a match itll load it for yuo
so you get one shot regardless
oh yay
the crossbow is crazy fun and also pretty damn strong
so enjoy it
and odnt forget to isnure your stuff :)
Oh no wonder I've gotten so huge I'm always holding shift lmao
Yay
i have NO idea how i survived getting french kissed by 2 zombies
this is what you get for biting my hand you little freak
he is Not Happy i did that
killed everyone with one of my hands hacked off
Anyone wanna play and hang out, learn the game together a bit? Share tactics and stuff?
lmao
anyone lol
dont have any friends who play, so i figured it would be conducive to find someone who does
but no promise for updates. ea mean nothing,
Legendary shop pull, got myself an untextured Baurenwehr
I personally prefer the UI in the demo
Also, separation between freeplay and gauntlet is much better in the demo
Freeplay is clearly an independent game mode with no connection to Gauntlet, so whoever enjoys gauntlet is free to play it, while everyone else has an option to freely experience all of the game's content
On the other hand, besides some default weapons, in freeplay i only get to use whatever i unlock in progression mode.
I think it's an awful design decision, locking full content behind the progression mode.
Assuming progression is perfect and everyone loves it, it's still awfully long to unlock all of the game's content.
I would like the freeplay system to build on top of the demo system, rather than redesign it.
Leave the option to just pick a class, get a random template of that class, press fight and play the game
Then on top of that add an option to pick your own character with your own preset of the equipment, choose which presets of enemies are going to spawn, choose the maps, game mode. But make it optional, in addtion to the simple click and play.
I personally like duel with longswords and no armor. In the demo it's clear how to do it: Gamble for longsword in commonner, then gamble for longsword opponent, then enjoy.
In EA either it's not as simple, or not as clearly explained.
I don't regret spending money on the game, but i like to think i paid most of it for the demo.
I never have and never will open free play and I still agree
clearly there's a very specific demand for it
and yeah I think of it the exact same way
my 100 hours on the demo is worth 20 bucks to me, so I paid them
love Devs that do free demos without "to play more buy the game"
I know that red weapons are from the abyss but what differentiates them from other ones?
we literally had 2 optimization fix updates and qol changes yesterday
mood
finally got the full set
in the end the game is very fun but heavily flawed
just about everything has some glaring issue
I was hoping that at least the combat physics would be near perfect that way the only problems would be progression and balance
people already beating the game and im still stuck on peasant 💔
I made Heath Ledger's Joker
this thread kinda lost it's purpose now that the screeching is over
kinda just #main3
I like it
wtfff how you get the gold
just keep killing the barron
each win equals one piece of armor
except no arming doublet, chainmail or shows for some reason
or hosen
Once I finish my first playthrough im gonna replay from beggar with only looted weapons
its like a cs2 knife skin or whatever
Are people still screaming at each other
no
I'm gonna do a no mercenary run
using looted weapons is actually way stronger than bought weapons imo, let alone crafted
my first play through was obsessive minmaxzing and I used looted weapons literally exclusively except beggar tier
Whats with the theorising in chat
the hardest part of the game was the beginning, being a frail beggar.
the game then got easier as my willie exercised and grew stronger. weapons felt less wobbly. I was doing more damage, and taking less.
so much fun, flawed as the game is.
i wanna grind out the full baron armor set before starting a new guy
i almost have the full set already, but im missing the sabatons and the helmet. though id imagine they'd sneak in something i've forgotten.
the baron doesn't have sabatons, only basic turnshoes
vro ran out of armor budget
do you get the barons armor as a reward or something? just whooped him and I cant take his armor
I see now. really sucks that it resets your rank progress...
bro got his shot blocked
it should be in ur chest, not whole set just 1 piece, if u want whole set u have to do it multiple times
that sucks, gotta do like 12 knight missions just to get another chance
this is gunna take all night
yup
Question, if I lose my character in a higher rank, will the new character be at the same level of strength as if I started as a beggar?
I recently learnt about the strength/muscle mechanic and it kinda suck to lose strength progress when my character eventually dies. Especially in higher ranks, when I'm already wielding heavier weapons
I dont know but my assumption is you start from square one. I know you keep your chest of goodies tho, so maybe equip all ur armor and do easy fights to quickly regain that mscule
you'll lose your strength but you keep your insured stuff
for those looking for the upside down dagger its on a table in cellar
Is this certain? My guy did today at COA level and my new guy was flailing around my heavy ass weapons no issues
I spent about 15 minutes today making a perfect Longsword for myself and I love it, it's perfect
Again - this is why we let them cook
Early access games are rarely as stable or optimized to begin with as HS has been (first weeks of ARK survival evolved, anyone?) and it’s only getting more so with each hotfix
bro just built different 😤
guys is it possible to get on the cart in the forest map?
not as far as i know
id say try jumping but you lose all forward momentum when you jump
ya
someone had a video where they like
swing their leg on top of the cart
and then slowly bug into it
took them a couple tries too
(and a lot of willy pain noises)
what a handsome young man
jesus christ how much optimisation would it need to run all that fluidly
it gets to a point dawg
playing with willie's willy 💜
not much apparently
fps like doubled for me with patch 3
I made a MASSIVE poleaxe its very effective
https://youtu.be/cstiwKl5P0c
im not sure if you've found it already but i remember you asking where to find it and i found someone who uploaded it to YouTube
Appreciate that! Amazing you remembered haha. I ended up just recording it myself in menu and cutting the clip down haha. Thank you though that’s great
How'd you get / make this weapon? when I try to remake it using the poleaxe the "beak" doesn't get nearly as big
stole it from the Baron
Looks fun to use
man at arms
Ahh
Sweettt
yuuuhh
as long as you take all the armor you need, a warstaff or any big polearm will carry you
EZPZ
Yeah I had the warstaff but I must've dropped it during a duel cause I don't have it no more
:(
Most of the stuff I'm not using
war staff and armor might be the only stuff worth insuring
I can only insure something I'm not using right?
They should bring back Greatsword
not sure, if anything just unequip it for a minute. you can definitely use insured gear
Ok, I insured my stuff
https://discord.com/channels/1043854763189600337/1468459336429863091
upvote this if you agree
niiice
Do the solution is just to use the worst settings to it can run decently?
you can insure worn gear
another bonus, if you ensure your armor and then steal armor off of opponents and wear it, you get to keep both
Oh nice
yes. essentially.
Anyone know why my mercenary wont stop joining my battles? I dismissed him but he still shows up
I hope he doesn’t expect pay, I’ll boot his ass to the curb
It works on a day system
Next day he should be gone
Can you make 2h zweilander ? Im not there yet to know
Please tell me if this new update is already available to download?
are these two empty slots used for anything yet? still havent found anything that fills them.
ye no scarfs or such yet
awh dangit
i wanted a cape so i can look cool when i get beaten to death on the floor.
the tabard could be your best friend
close enough i guess.
Is there anything that happens after collecting all the Baron equipment?
Or is tat it?
that*
hi im a fartycuck
Yeah thats it
atleast for now, idk if there is more stuff planned for the future :D
sure do hope so tho
If you started a new character after the latest patch (at least for me and a few others, obviously I can't know every single player's experience lol) you can no longer increase your strength.
I got a character pretty ripped last night, but fucked up and lost them. Tried to get a new character back up to snuff today and its just not happening. Hope we get a fix for it soon cause I'm fucking hooked on this version of the game lol
or alternately, if its intended that would be sick to know
yo can I reset my rank progress without losing all my good stuff? I wanna start a new character
omg didnt know this, just let my main get killed to try and restart
looks like the new guy started out ripped
Each rank has a minimum weight limit so if you started at a high rank they will start jacked.
got you. I found the "background" slider as well
New Hotfix
woa
Hello Willies, are you enjoying the game with all these updates?
half sword
Anyone konw how to get more bolts for the crossbow in free mode? I dont know if it is a bug that i just have one bolt or not so help be appreciated
I think it's more of a bug perhaps. I picked up the quiver in the forest that some times will spawn in the smaller box next to the crossbow, when I finish the game and go to the tavern I lose the quiver
And you can't buy any bolts from the trader so...
Yes that happend as well after i restarted the game and got the quiver it worked. but i mean when i play the free mode instead of progression. i thought that it would mirror the amount of bolts i have in progression in the quiver but there are non in it
the quiver does disappear unfortunately, In my experience it happens when you finish the fight, or run out of bolts in the thing
I understand there are a few problems, but that was completely expected coming in. I’ve been enjoying the Early Access a lot!
Can you do zwerchhau in halfsword
Watch out rage shout. Low or turn off your volume.
I don't know how to edit audio in videos.
Feet just got stuck IN the floor.
That's possible too easily not to make other postures easily.
You can do that, but wrists are little weak to do it.
They got even interrupted with enemies armored arms without giving enough blunt too much oftenly.
Is it planned one for soon?
If it is, I want to say "it's not the turn for adding map with this state."
It will be great if added anyway
is that cursor a mod?
that's the itch io version
Ah, understood. I thought it was new update leak
nahh, that's a older version from like years ago lol.
lmao
oh yeah i like the early access a lot this is kinda the best early access game i played
only things I have wrong with half sword, are that quivers are bugged and dont come with you, and crossbows dont punch through armor, like they were made to do
yeah id love it the quiver would stay it would make me play the game way more
bro thought he was tuff
okay so apparently you can go into the files on steam and change the intro logos to whatever you want
example in a moment
ah feck

the file no uploady
another sec
the FPS is ass and i did a terrible job of showing but
and here is that wonderful video that i deeply love
why would they develop that in the first place
why was development time wasted on placing trees 3 kilometres out of the arena over.. yknow... fixing bugs
Tell me you know absolutely nothing about game development without telling me.
Level design is a completely separate part of game development, probably handled by a different person altogether than any coding, and regardless of if it is or not, tree placement can be handled all sorts of ways non of which take more than minutes to fill out an area unless it's somewhere like the forest map where each one is likely to have had a decent bit thought put into them, which might bump that up to 30 minutes max for placing all the ones in the play area.
he sure turned into one
i swear i get riot so much its kinda annoying
hagh
bro got the headless in half sword
