Pipboy companion app for Fallout 4 is out

[Mutant Screg]

I am just wondering what is even the use for it when the Pipboy can be brought up with a key and the app forces you to look away from the screen anyway.

There just really isn't a point to it. Sure, it'd be sort of fun to use day one when the hype is at its peak, but after that it's pretty pointless. Hell, I'd probably be wearing it if I had bought the special edition.

Now available for iOS.

Holy shit, that's some good immersion right there!

Fun for 20 min I guess, till you remove it because all that scrolling/jumping from menues makes you crazy

10/10. It just works.

Has anyone else while playing the Missile Command mini game gone out of their way to protect Vegas from missile strikes: or is that just me ?

OMG! Okay you guys hate Bethesda and The New Fallout,but for Christ sake it's a free app for fans! If a miracle fell out the sky that had this app for FO1 or 2,you guys would be nutting all over the place! Bottom line...bitch when needed!

Why the fuck would I need to use my phone to change my inventory when I could literally just do it in game?

It's basically just a screensaver for your phone so you can slot it into the Pipboy that comes with the collector's edition.

If you don't have the Pipboy, then I don't see what the big hoopla is about.

So according to the App all ammo is weightless again....

This corporate selling is so sicking. First the beer, jackets, bobble heads, bags and now this. My Star Wars analogy for the Fallout series is becoming more true with each passing day.

I think you mean Spaceballs, but yes, the amount of IP and brand whoring is rather unsettling.

Still no Fallout 4: The Flamethrower.

Yeah, exactly. The one time such a thing would make sense.

Oh good, I can make the minigun shoot mininukes again.

I really don't see the need for this app. Just press tab or whatever... It's also pretty laggy on my phone, anyone else have that problem?

Than just don't use it. It's that simple.

It's 100% optional. How can you complain about something that's for free and optional

Same reason you can complain about us giving our opinions on a forum.

Yeah, cause complaining about something free which you don't need is rational...

You ever had an negative opinion on Farmville and the like?
