Add the ability to flip your weapon (mainly polearms n axes) around

[acoustic shard]

Was kinda surprised this wasn’t in the EA but for example, some weapons have a spike and chopping edge, but one of them is near useless as I can’t flip my weapon to use it

[quaint oar]

this would be awesome. the entire point of a halfted or pollarm with an axe head on one side and spike on the other, is that you can use either edge as the situation demands.

with the best pollarm head being the spike: if you want to target flesh with slashing damage, you need to bring in a whole sword just to cover that area.

Yes this is one of the things that would be very welcome. Just a simple button press to flip the head of a weapon the other way. For me, I would love to use it for any of the one handed hafted weapons that have a spike on the other side.

This could be integrated into some sort of "Alternate grip" Function that allows you to at the press of a button, for example, switch your sword to Mordhau, turn your spear up side down, switch your dagger to reverse grip, ...

I think thats what the alt key will be used for eventually

[acoustic shard]

Isn’t alt for stab?

[lone walrus]

If i do recall, i dont remember if a dev or mcwonder said it, but alt is just the key for "alternative function : ____" wich currently only does stabbing, im guessing it will allow different grips/stances eventually

[acoustic shard]

I feel tab would be better

Wait does tab do anything rn

[lone walrus]

Alt is closer to space and control, so its an easier acess, tab wouldnt be such

But we can rebind our keys now so thats not changing anything

[tropic comet]

Tab would be because it's closer to WASD which are used more than space and control. Also alt already stabs. Having it do two things would be silly.

[lone walrus]

Thats cause stabbing is the only alt option yet

[tropic comet]

What you're saying makes no sense

Are you proposing that the alt key should be used for several functions instead of just using other equally-accessible keys? How would you switch between these functions? Would you open a menu and select what the alt-key does?

And if so, in what world is that better than just having other alternative grips/functions on a separate key like tab? It's not like the name of the key has to literally match what it's doing in game lol

[lone walrus]

Idk just let the devs do what they do with it

[limber skiff]

Make it your mouse buttons.

Make alt stab the fronter side button, then the thumb button swap it around or switch hands.

Then the one that isn't in your mouse alt.

Btw since i keep forgeting to ask
Do controls save now or do they still reset upon launch like day 1 ?

[limber skiff]

No idea.
