The game is awesome but the sensitivity is WAY to high and I can't find out how to turn it down. Also Q seems to drop your weapon but there is no keybind to pick up dropped items.
This game is really amazing and has so much potential and I hope to see it continue to grow. Some suggestions I have for it would be increased gore effects, and what I mean by that is instead of just having blood splatter, you could actually show the damage the weapons do to the enemy, be it a hole from being stabbed, or have parts of the head be dismemberable rather than just the whole head. Also, breaking bones is really difficult for me in game, even with the setting turned all the way up, so I think that should be a more frequent occurance.
I think more weapons (saber, rapier, etc), a better focus/target locking assistance, and a bit of guided movement (for swings and thrusts) could go a long way toward making it even more epic
It would've kind of hard as you said, Its a game that just popped out of nowhere and it would require a lot more to get to VR.
It would cost even more, Because this game wasnt meant for VR. (i think?), And also, The game is still in development, Needs more optimization for that, And more weapons, Updates, Maps And More Before VR.
whenever i open the game, the screen become dark and then an error message says "out of video memory trying to allocate a rendering resource, try lowering the resolution and/or other applications that are running." why cant I run the game?
I've been having a blast with this game the past 3 days. It can be extremely satisfying when you hit a good combo on an enemy. I can't wait for the steam release!
been playing for more than 10 hours at least now, super fun so far. you can pull off some insanely satisfying swings, and when the right combo connects, my neurons start firing lol. Definitely would like to see more heavier armor though, and more armor for the legs, shoulders and arms. I also was thinking about maybe the implementation of spears? I think spear and shield would be a fun combo. Looking forward to the next update, thanks for the good time so far!
will this ever be mobile or console? Console would be great because I don’t have a pic to plug my controller in but also phone would be great but it’s fine if you don’t I’ll get a pic or laptop eventually
hello, will you please add support for directx 12, i really wanna play this game, its so good, but i dont have directx11 supporting card, it says you need d3d11 support card, thanks in advance if you reply.
REVIEW: I really think with some more gameplay, this can really become a very popular and fun medival physics game that you can save on steam, some things that need work is, the injury system, more simple then i thought, but still really close to perfect, more gameplay, like muliplayer or some sort of campain as it really feels like a sandboxy game. But i give this a 7/10 stars on mechanics, a 100/10 stars on the feel and goryness of the game, and a 3/10 on the game, but the game has a lot of replayablility, once i got this game i spent, around 3 hours strait just killing people, now there are some modes, like free for all, or team vs team, or duels. But still a little short on the game modes.
Amazing project where I hope for a best future possible :). Thx to my KCD skill practice, this game feels like a fresh air. Combat is intuitive and so BLOODY fun. What I think would make this game even better for longer playtime is video Replay or Photo mode so I'll be able to capture all that limbs falling of :D. Edit: Oh yea and I forgot about kicking, that could be fun if added:P.
Looking forward to it! But nowadays I'm sadly scared to play game until get I better machine :(. Last time I tried to play something happend and turned my PC completely off( like one comment I saw down mentioned), so I'll patiently wait for some optimization :). Praying all best for development!
Hey, I Think I just had a idea for the hand positions guide, try adding mouse cursor trails when swinning in 3rd person perspective, As for the fist person view, Use some glent light effects at the edge of the screen, showing which way your swinning hand is, you know, just like simulating the sun flare on your weapons, It much more realistic, and uses much less UI, I hope these ideas will help.
Heyy mantisguys. You will download zipfile you don't need winrar but It's a handy app that will help you unpack zip files. You right click the zip file and press extract all. Then you will get a normal file which you click on, now click on that file you will get another file click on it also. Now you should see something called: "halfswordUE5" click it and enjoy!

Good game

Press 1, 2 or 3 to respawn a weapon magically in your hands :)

(:
why does the gore not show up in my game like this, for me its just a plain blood splatter
its the next B I G update son!
(He has a playtest for this, dont make me look bad.)
if you've got galaxyhighmarshal messaging you on discord you def will make the gore really good
FUCK YEA BROTHER AGENT GREECE BACKROUND WE ALREADY KNOW THIS GAME IS GONNA BE CO- shit litterly shit IS GONNA BE SH-
agent greece?
u wont understand....
Is it normal cause I tried to put the graphics to Xbox and when I play the game with the arena map it's just orange like my screen is just orange
what do all the game settings do like bone snapping and stuf
It's a pretty fun game.
I think more weapons (saber, rapier, etc), a better focus/target locking assistance, and a bit of guided movement (for swings and thrusts) could go a long way toward making it even more epic
a virtual reality (vr) version of this would be awsome but probably hard to do
It would've kind of hard as you said, Its a game that just popped out of nowhere and it would require a lot more to get to VR.
It would cost even more, Because this game wasnt meant for VR. (i think?), And also, The game is still in development, Needs more optimization for that, And more weapons, Updates, Maps And More Before VR.
how do you launch the game
First extract the "halfsword-win.zip" file after you downloaded it,
Open the folder, Double click "HalfSwordUE5.exe" in the folder.
Pls add local multiplayer
game is sitll in dev and needs hella optimisation for pc and more weapons updates maps hand combat etc before multiplayer
I like the Totally Accurate Battle Simulator-esque title
hate to be that guy, but half swording is a technique that might've been used by the germans, search up mordschlag
whenever i open the game, the screen become dark and then an error message says "out of video memory trying to allocate a rendering resource, try lowering the resolution and/or other applications that are running." why cant I run the game?
you most likely do not have enough ram or it is being used at the moment of trying to launch the application
how do i open the game?
i have it in some zip what do i do now
click halfswordue5.exe
I've been having a blast with this game the past 3 days. It can be extremely satisfying when you hit a good combo on an enemy. I can't wait for the steam release!
ho much will it cost in steam?
could you make the "utra potato" graphics mode.
for some reason every time i try to open the game it says a fatal error has occurred and it crashes i hope you can fix this soon
same have you figured out how to fix this error? if you did could you show me how to fix it too
If you're in mac, Or in any of things like that, It wouldn't work.
im using windows 10
heya been having issues where randomly when i launch the game the lighting gets very saturated as i go up or down on the graphics scale?
heya the game is amazing i cant wait to see it grow!!!one suggestion, maybe make an extra slow mo option!!
this is already fun to play. Cant wait to see what awaits in the future
been playing for more than 10 hours at least now, super fun so far.
you can pull off some insanely satisfying swings, and when the right combo connects, my neurons start firing lol.
Definitely would like to see more heavier armor though, and more armor for the legs, shoulders and arms.

will this ever be mobile or console? Console would be great because I don’t have a pic to plug my controller in but also phone would be great but it’s fine if you don’t I’ll get a pic or laptop eventually
this game would turn a phone into a pipe bomb
unless you got one of those
overpricedgaming phones lolI don't think those would survive a game like this either. My PC with an RTX3070 is struggling with this game.
my gtx laptop runs this game just fine
y wont it launch???
make it steam game
Still in dev + YOU CAN ADD IT BY YOUR GOD DAMN OWN + This game requires more, AND MORE development for that, and more updates and optimization.
ur such a whiny baby lmao
comment extraire le fichier
i dowloaded the file but how do i open the app?
First find this file:
double click the bottom one.
you will now find more files. click on the one that says (without quotes) "HalfSwordUE5.exe" and there you go! (if this doesn't work, please say so.)
for some odd reason the game has really ugly lighting for me?
go into settings and check there. maybe you have it set low?
yeah. seems it fixes on Xbox360 mode. otherwise, potato mode is sorta unplayable.
ok. Weird, because potato mode for me isn't that ugly tbh
hello, will you please add support for directx 12, i really wanna play this game, its so good, but i dont have directx11 supporting card, it says you need d3d11 support card, thanks in advance if you reply.
constantly crashing
Does it happen when you open the game or during gameplay?
Quick google search show that it might be somehow related to DirectX12. Will try to solve it in next update
THANKS alot

Working on that! Right now working on injury syste. The game itself will become better over time too (:
updtae when
Soon)))
cool game, but add default settings button
the settings go back to default once you restart the game.
i already know
Amazing project where I hope for a best future possible :). Thx to my KCD skill practice, this game feels like a fresh air. Combat is intuitive and so BLOODY fun. What I think would make this game even better for longer playtime is video Replay or Photo mode so I'll be able to capture all that limbs falling of :D. Edit: Oh yea and I forgot about kicking, that could be fun if added:P.
Thank you!
Yes, we will probably add photo mode in next update. Not sure about video replay, thats a bit tricky.
Kicking... one day..... maybe)))))
Looking forward to it! But nowadays I'm sadly scared to play game until get I better machine :(. Last time I tried to play something happend and turned my PC completely off( like one comment I saw down mentioned), so I'll patiently wait for some optimization :). Praying all best for development!

Thank you! We will probably add something like this!
Amazing game! I got one question, when using the longsword is right click for blocking?
dude how do i open the game after i download??
It does't do anything yet.. But it will soon!
