there is a great game here, you're definitely onto something. It would be cool if you could enable some hooks for modding support, that way people could at least generate new environments or maybe even some sense of 'quest' or map to complete. In general it's a great concept, works and runs really well. I am also impressed at the AI, it's a decent challenge and vicious which is great. Bravo!
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.

when i try to play it "says search for app in store? you need to install an app for this task"
nverermind it works now once i added it to steam library
we need a list of controls for this game, Definetly.
everytime i try download it stops at a certain point and says "forbidden
Howw do I fix orange screen when I turn the graphics into medium
this game is way more fun than most of my steam games... I keep coming back for updates and i'm excited for whats next. :3

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

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
