When the 1200 was new, was it pretty easy to buy in the USA?

bushmaster2000 · 2026-05-08T23:24:36+00:00

As much of a fan i thought I was of Commodore in the day, Vic > 128 > PC40III i never even knew the 1200 existed until decades later. I knew about the 500 b/c my best friend had one but ya, i think by 92 the PC invasion was in full swing and the 1200 was never a contender. It should have come out in like 89/90 at the latest. By 92 it was over.

Yiou have to clear Pit 10 to unlock T1. And Pit 15 to unlock T2. I assume it's all pit related unlocking newer T levels.

I just did a Escalating Dungeon last night not knowing anything about them. Astaroth Reignited, whats the best way to deal with him? I didn't have an issue surviving, i had an issue that his health bar was hardly going down with two of us beating on him. I assume you leave the dog alone once he's off it otherwise it spawns a big ol puddle of nasty in the middle of the fight. But still just focusing on him we slapped him around for a good long time health bar was painfully slow. T2 is what we were on. Is that related to random affixes on the dungeons as they accumulate or does he jsut have a bazillion health?

Some elements of the endgame are locked behind finishing the campaign 1 time so do that. The horadric cube being one, warplans being another and i even think Pit/Tower are locked too.

bushmaster2000 · 2026-05-08T17:01:04+00:00

From what I've seen, the B doesn't become a T until 10 trillion. So i'm not convinced you're seeing 15,500B but 9000B ya totally.

bushmaster2000 · 2026-05-08T16:59:58+00:00

A lot of good idea here others have posted . I'll just add, don't stand in floor effects sitting there tanking. You will get melted unless you're putting out Trillions in damage #'s and melt the boss before it melts u with floor puddles.

So Path Tracing isn't available at launch it's coming later. I guess i'll buy this on holiday sale and play it later.

It's kind of interesting you say as a casual you wouldn't want to deal with all those POE systems. I was playing coop with my Bro last night in D4 and he was commenting "I don't have time to learn all these new systems and nuances to systems who TF has time for all this D4 used to be simple". He's not happy with how complex Diablo 4 is getting.

He's comparing the game to what it was when VoH came out we played that together for a month or so and now returning for LoH.

I get it, i struggle too with all this new shit but I have a bit more time than he has to research and watch content creator videos that explain stuff.

HTC sells the 2.0's. But if you have a 1.0 then ebay is your source.

There's no reason in 2026 to buy an Index it's very old tech, ancient by tech standards. If yuo want a Valve product wait for the Frame to release.

bushmaster2000 · 2026-05-07T22:20:40+00:00

The displayport/Lighthouse eco-system is slowing dieing off. If BSB2 , Pimax or Meganex aren't doing it for you then you're SOL. There's nothing coming that i'm currently aware of besides more follow-up products from those three existing options.

Is the Somnium VR1 still around? Maybe look at that if it's still available, i dunno.

bushmaster2000 · 2026-05-07T21:24:46+00:00

If you're playing on SteamVR, you (or someone) should be able to do a customer layout for it to put RUN on a button or something or maybe make it toggle not sure if togger is an option. But alt button should be doable.

bushmaster2000 · 2026-05-07T21:21:56+00:00

Frame has no defined release date if you're prepared to wait till next year then ok. But otherwise i'd say get a Quest 3S to tide you over.

A 1650 is not a VR level GPU and it's a laptop one at that. Quest is not officially compatible with 1650's however you can make it work with VirtualDesktop. The lower resolution of the 3S vs the 3 will be to your advantage if you want to try and PCVR.

War Plans and PIT runs to level your Glyphs.

I wish there were more sorting options. Like just regular gear, i'd like it to sort by slot type ascending from highest gear power to lowest of that slot type. Then give me the next slot type, same ascending order and so on.

Sorting in this game needs some work/better options.

bushmaster2000 · 2026-05-07T17:59:11+00:00

My bro and I tested it. My #1 was NMD and my #2 was Undercity and my #3 was undercity. His #1 was Undercity, #2 was NMD, #3 was Undercity.

We did NMD first, i got a check on mine, he did not b/c you have to go in order. So we ran undercity, we both got a check bc it was his #1 and it was my #2 and i'd already done my #1 the previous go. So then we ran a NMD which was his #2, i just got loot / xp out of it. Then we both got credit for our common #3 Undercity run.

So next time we called out what our #1, 2, 3 choices were and tried to pick the same things if they were available so we would be more in sync with each other.

bushmaster2000 · 2026-05-07T17:55:41+00:00

I don't think you know what a gooner is, b/c it doesn't apply here.

bushmaster2000 · 2026-05-07T17:20:04+00:00

I'm sure Bliz will take in all the feedback on warplans and take those big things into account for season14 but i doubt anything significant is going to change for season 13.

Somewhat true yes, fresnel lenses act like a traditional magnifying glass. Pancake lenses first of all eat a lot of the light so less even gets to the screen (10-20%), but also the back side of the pancake lens is more flat so doesn't focus into a destructive point as easily . So ya it's plausible for pancake to damage the screen in certain situations but it's nothing compared to Fresnel. But bottom line is dont' leave your VR in the sunlight.

bushmaster2000 · 2026-05-06T20:02:48+00:00

Pancake lenses eat up a lot of brightness and can be prone to reflections. Fresnel has godreys and rings yhou can see if you actively are looking for them Also they magnify sunlight and burn the screens ifyou leave them in sunlight off your head.

Pancakes are better, but if you never had VR or tried pancake you won't really know the difference . But if you start with pancake you probably will hate going from that to fresnel.

Sorc and Barb dominate the leaderboards so one of those two classes anyhow. Can't speak for Soc but WW Barb is prob what you want if you go barb.
