Pip-Boy app and real in game usage?

Post » Fri Nov 27, 2015 5:06 am

I searched couldnt find a similar discussion…...

In the E3 video he is using the phone like a real Pip-Boy.

SO….

Will the app interface with the game? Meaning can i equip weapons etc on the app and does so on the game? that would be pretty neat.

Perhaps those sentry guns can have a cam and viewable on the app.

I always thought the PSP would have been cool for this, or as a rear view mirror in racing game.

As far as I know, he said it was a "second screen gimmick," so yes, they are interacteable. I'm all but 100% sure, and it's going to be ace.

That's right... interacteable

Yes. It connects wirelessly to your XBOX1, PS4, or PC and what you do on the physical Pip-boy happens in-game. It acts as second screen controller.

Is there limit how many phones the game detects. If one fella plays game with PC/Console and has smartphone. Then how player can be sure buddies wont troll with their own phones too?

Hmmm..I hope bethesda can make this gimmick work. Otherwise the internet floods if Timmy and Billy weren't able to use their phones together with their games.

I hope you can use it whenever you want without having to push a button on the consoles controller, un interuptted gameplay with realistic pip boy use.

Now that I think about it, kinda makes some kind of holder for the phone a requirement.

You don't need holder if you have ducktape or something similar

I'm excited, and so is my GF who usually watches me play. Now she can help me "play" without feeling left out.
