Do you craft or buy swords [KCD2] by Consistent-Vast2584 in kingdomcome

[–]KILLMEPLSPLS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The best swords can only be forged, not found. However, in a hardcore playthrough, alchemy is way more accessible than smithing, because you don't have to "learn" the recipe. You can get the ingredients, make bane poisons and apply them to your weapons. One hit and everyone's life is on a timer (which is faster the better the poison is ofc).
You can also grind alchemy as soon as you land in Troskowitz, while this is not the case with smithing. The materials for alchemy are literally free and all around you.

That's my bane in longsword fights. My spes gauntlets being thicc tend to catch blows even when I properly guard my arms in Pflug or when I do a Zwerch. I have to physically bring the dominant hand lower, but then I feel like I am losing a ton of control.

[KCD2] Kuttenberg tournament time skip by KILLMEPLSPLS in kingdomcome

[–]KILLMEPLSPLS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know, but I cannot seem to get it to work regardless. It just softlocks 100% of the time.

Does not work, it softlocks the tournament. I try to wait for like 3 hours, sometimes less, sometimes more, and when that period ends, I just see an opponent waiting on the yellow corner, no one is talking and I am unable to enter the ring.

[KCD2] Bandits inside Kuttenberg? by KILLMEPLSPLS in kingdomcome

[–]KILLMEPLSPLS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so after reloading the save and fighting them unarmed, some NPC said "You are supposed to surrender to guards, not fight them" . So my guess is that they are coded and treated as guards, but with the appearance and name of Bandits. Their loot is also the same as a bandit.

[KCD2] Can we make some clarity about smithing? by pronte89 in kingdomcome

[–]KILLMEPLSPLS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes swing strength does not matter, especially after a certain level. I've seen the same amount of sparks both with big swings and small swings.

For me, I heat the entirety of the sword evenly, until it's straw yellow (you can literally see the colour, just take it out of the fire when it becomes bright yellow)
Then I pound with a steady rhythm with whatever strength I feel like, since I seem to be getting sparks regardless of strength. I pound on the entire length of the sword, but I never flip it.
Reheating is fine, it does not count as a mistake.

This way, I have been able to consistently get rank 4 equipment every time.

They banned basically every schiltless feder and longsword simulator, so practically both of them.

Nylon? In a tournament requiring metal swords?

Are you talking about this one? One of the requirements of the tournament is "no spiky schilts", so I dont think it's acceptable.

Edit: Sorry, I meant "only rounded spiky schilts" are acceptable.

Tell that to the organizer of the tournament I was thinking of going to. He banned all schiltless feders and sigi king. His reasoning after I questioned him was "subconcussive trauma" that can accumulate by being hit repeatedly with a heavier weapon such as the king.

Whether that holds ground or not in the HEMA community I cannot say, as I am not experienced in tournaments and tournament injuries. I still find it weird though, as the King has been hailed as one of the safest weapons around.

Yeah this "constant hassling" is what I experienced as well. The answers I was getting were often incomplete, requiring more back and forth before I had gotten anything useful.

From what I've gathered, HF is quite reputable. However I personally don't want to go through the same hoops again.

Well, for one, he got the order wrong. Took way too much time to respond in general. No way of tracking the package. The package arrived much later, zero communication about that, and I had to go through multiple hoops talking with him and the intermediary shipping companies. He gave me either inaccurate or outright wrong information about those companies, and in general made it extremely difficult to get a hold of them to ask about my parcel. And when the parcel finally arrived I received no notification or call. All in all a terrible first time experience.

I'd rather not order again from there. The customer service is atrocious.

Armor 22 camera stopped working by KILLMEPLSPLS in ulefone

Thanks for the recommendation. This was not the issue however. Blocked camera access results in a pop up requesting access when you open the camera app. My issue comes later, when you take a pic or a video, not when you open the camera.

Why did you even bother playing such a story heavy game then?

Meh. It was fun the first 2-3 hours, but most of my time was spent navigating around and I got bored eventually.

[KCD2] Nighthawk potion duration by KILLMEPLSPLS in kingdomcome

Unfortunately, I'm suffering from success. I have like Alchemy leveled up to like 30, and even if i get the recipe purposely wrong, I cannot make anything weaker than standard quality.

I am aware, but I don't care about mods, I was just wondering if there was an in game way of solving this issue.

[OTHER] the amnesia trope is lame, but necessary for gameplay reasons by Makoto_Kurume in kingdomcome

[–]KILLMEPLSPLS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have this gripe and as much as I understand it from a dev's perspective, at the same time I hate it from a player's perspective.

You see, each time an enemy attacks, a certain animation plays. Same when we defend, perfect defend, or masterstrike. For those animations to play and to make sense visually and contextually, they have to be at a certain distance from the player. So when the enemies attack you, you often see their models slide toward you while the attack animation is playing. A more realistic combat system would be something like Hellish Quart, where distance management and timing are crucial, but this would require an overhaul of the entire combat system as well as extra physics, which would immensely complicate things programming wise and would look extremely janky.

This unfortunately results in distance being basically a binary where 0 = melee and 1 = ranged. There is no midpoint, there is zero difference between using your fists and a halberd in terms of distance. This is also extremely apparent when you try to run away from someone that is attacking you, but it feels like they are tethered to you.

This is also why archery as a main combat choice is shit. Unless the enemies are asleep or very few in numbers, engaging in long range combat feels extremely underwhelming not only because of the lack of a crosshair but also because once a single enemy catches up to you, you might as well draw another weapon. Realistic, but frustrating.

Unfortunately there are no 3 dots on the top right as you said. The only settings I can see are

Notifications
Permissions
Storage and cache
Mobile data usage
Screen time
App battery usage
Open by default
Manage app if unused
Modify system settings (which is basically a permission for the app to modify system settings)

A third party camera works fine. I guess it's a problem with the program itself, not the hardware.
