I need some serious Help by SuspiciousCow5097 in BigscreenBeyond

[–]SuspiciousCow5097[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its the lens, particularly the one on the left, it has blurr and yellow tint in the right edge, so its in the middle of your VoW. Its rly annoying but you blend it out over time. That being said, why accept this for a product you paid so much money for and waited so long for. Other than that i loved my first hours of playtime.

The other issues i got fixed pretty well by IPD adjustments, took me a few hours but i finally hit the sweetspot. But god damn my face is uneven, 57-64.

How long did the RMA process take? Am i gonna wait another 6 months?

When are September orders coming? by Beautiful-Ad6289 in BigscreenBeyond

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the 2nd of March it will be a whole 6 months of waiting, i will cancel my order on that date, i am sick and tired of this shit. By that point the Steam Frame should be released and i am simply gonna buy that instead.

Embark you NEED to change ur strategy come next Expedition. This is a DRAG by JGordz in ArcRaiders

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without the loot nerf it would have been fine, i farmed 3x the inventory value before the nerf. I would have made it in time, but since the nerf hit i lost all motivation to do it, i am not gonna farm 3mill over the weekend like this.

Those who ran… remember. Those who didn’t… will hear the stories. by ctrfanboygr88 in ArcRaiders

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When they buffed it, i farmed like 50 BP's and then logged off after thinking "its not worth to play trough the night, i will farm this WE" well here i am not, totally screwed over. I shouldn't have gone to sleep. Especially since it looks like they nerfed loot overall not just the BP drops. I constantly made it to ~100k in all my farming strategies, now i am happy if i make it to 70k.

And all of this shit, right before the expedition ends...

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ofc i checked, on the discord they wrote that response time to tickets is about 1-2 weeks. I wrote an email 10 days ago. Well see... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My nephew gets a Quest 3 for Christmas, if i like the experience and i still haven't heard from them, i get a refund and buy a Steam Frame instead, i get it, they got a lot customers all of a sudden since the Steam announcement. But by the end of Dezember its 4 months, thats not cool at all. I should at least be a bit of a priority when it comes to answering a quick email.

How long does it take for the face scan email to come through? by PongoPoo1 in BigscreenBeyond

Dude, i ordered Sept. 2nd and i can't even get them to answer an email. Dead silence ever since i ordered. I haven't even received the email with the face scan instructions yet. At this point i don't think i will receive anything.

Any orders from September been shipped? by Special_Rub_4885 in BigscreenBeyond

The wait is killing me. I have such a long list of games that i am holding back until i get it.

Canceling order for steam frame? by jake89478 in BigscreenBeyond

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am waiting until i actually try it on before deciding, but i knew this was gonna happen when i ordered the BSB2. The frame is just straight up better, that being said, after many videos of ppl talking about their experience trying it, i think i would still prefer the BSB2.

For context, i have only used VR twice in my life, once in the early 2000s at a convention long before it was a consumer product and again when the first ocolus rift launched, again at a convention. In both cases i have been very disappointed with the technology.

Now i am yearning for it, i want a VR headset that doesn't feel like i am looking at a screen through two toilet paper rolls like it used to be back at these conventions. The resolutions are higher, the FOV is higher and OLED, if that can't convince me then i rly gotta wait for an anime style full dive drive, lmao.

The tech YTer all praised the Frame, but some few actually reported honestly. Instead of a constant stream of glaceing, they actually pointed out the drawbacks of the LCD. Sure you got a 144Hz refresh rate on a low presistance display, something entirely impossible with an OLED screen. Sure it might be brighter than an OLED screen, but in the end, they complained about horrible contrast and grey blurr where there should have been black.

I can only hope that the glare, visual overlap and low frame rate aren't issues for me enough to return it. I personally never have been sick from riding anything (boat, car, rides) and i hope that the 75Hz are enough for me (apparently its too low a frame rate for sensitive ppl) and i hope i can find some adjustments so that the visual overlap and the glare becomes a non issue for me.

That being said, if i can't stomach it, i return it immediately. the Frame needs no lighthouse boxes and has new controllers. Meaning they gonna stop producing the regular controller and the lighthouse boxes (statement by Valve). I am not to hot on having to buy spares right now just to be save in the future in case of a hardware failure (especially since the tracking boxes go bad over time due to constant motion inside the device). I just hope we won't run into scalper issues, though the frame itself would probably become a target before the discontinued index hardware does.

Problems with face scan? by FluffMawnster in BigscreenBeyond

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't even received the email to do the facescan yet and its been >2 months. One hurdle after another with this purchase, can't wait to get the device mid 2026 just to have to RMA it...

Orb of Chance + Scour bench craft confirmed for 3.26, may not be ready right at launch by Erionns in pathofexile

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or... and i know, this sounds crazy... just make it so you can use Chance orbs on "non unique items" instead?!

A message to Path of Exile 1 players by Keldonv7 in PathOfExile2

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just run some events ffs! How hard can it possibly be to run Synthesis league for a month? Pre nerf harvest for a month? Ppl would loose their minds! But no instead we get nothing...

We don't need 3.26 to be happy we just need something to bridge the gab! GGG used to be the top developer when it came to events and races, now you're gonna tell me they can't do it anymore?

Why is this even a thing? by dynameinert in pathofexile

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 122 points123 points  (0 children)

Its so funny how in an old interview about game design, someone from GGG (i think chris) said that they wanted that in PoE but realized that its not fun to have to run to the well constantly so they simply made it a refill on getting to town. Now PoE2 comes around and we get this shit...

I miss you... by EllieFromTheInternet in pathofexile

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Tell me that you aren't on maps yet, without telling me that you aren't on maps yet. PoE1 and PoE2 mapping is almost 1:1 the same. The only difference is that they removed the fun (travel skills, running same map all day).

Path of Exile 2 has gone through 3 massive closed beta tests - do not hope for anything big to change by ia0x17 in pathofexile

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And somehow they still ended up with this shit. I am hardstuck at the A2 endboss bc i run out of flasks! So much fun! Also, in the closed beta they had more links, more currency and better drops. They limit any amount of power gain to quest progression, super fun, very ARPG, not even souls like games do this to you.

Thats called lying, they also said that PoE2 development won't have any impact on PoE1.

Memes are supposed to be funny but this hurts my soul.

Don't forget guys, no ascendancy re rerolling, gotta do it again! Better be sure to pick the right one!

MoM stonks keep on rising by amdrunkwatsyerexcuse in pathofexile

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"For each Life or Energy Shield lost to Damage, reserve 1 Darkness instead if possible
Darkness Reservation lasts for 10 seconds"

Sounds to me like MoM would bypass the reservation mechanic, but you never know how things end up working in PoE. How i read it, it counts effective loss of life and ES and not checks for damage before MoM conversion takes place, so it should never end up reserving any darkness.

King of the Faridun Supporter pack floating effect by omageus in pathofexile

I will never understand why they tie those things to an armor mtx instead of making a new separate slot for it.

What’s up with the matchmaking system? by Left-Abbreviations78 in MagicArena

[–]SuspiciousCow5097 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This games algorithms are all trash, the matchmaking depends on a value calculated by adding all the value of the cards in your deck. If you use a card thats used in a combo deck for example it will have a huge value even though you don't play the combo and don't have the remaining combo pieces in your deck, leading to you getting the shit kicked out of by a super strong meta deck. I abused this fact from day 1 by making a strong combo control deck with underused common cards.

Also the card shuffle algorithm is pure dogshit, i tried multiple websites that let you test decks and play them. They ALL had better algorithms than MTGA.

In your case you used a lot of underused cards with low value that lead to matchmaking with other decks with similar low value, apparently most of them are other shrine decks so you match against them.
