I'm not a very tech savvy guy, but wouldn't that be an issue with desktop computers that don't have wifi built in?

As long as it's connected with your router, it'll work.

 

[Denzar]

No in-game bonusses in the Pip-boy edition, right?

EDIT: Triple Checked. Nope.

 

[Mask]

Yeah, after seeing that, I cancelled the pip boy edition I just ordered today from Amazon.fr. Ain't paying £99 for a big piece of plastic.

What did you honestly expect?

 

[Agent Gibbs]

The pipboy looks a bit glossy, i was hoping for a more matte almost metallic finish.
I could customise it, but it destroys resale value (not that i would i still have NES games) but you shouldn't have to make it look like half decent yourself when you are paying £100 or more for it

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

I just cancelled mine and ordered the regular edition off Amazon. With prime discount it's $80 less. I just don't think that stuff is worth the $80.

 

[Denzar]

I decided to skip on the Pip-boy edition as well. Just pre-ordered the game digitally. This means that I've got one PB-Edition for PC left in my store.

I anybody's interested, I work in a store in Bruges, Belgium. PM me if you want me to put it aside for you. I'm not planning on selling it on E-Bay or similar sites, that wouldn't be cool....

 

[Gnilres]

Wow after seeing that unboxing I feel A LOT better about not managing to get one.

There's no way I'd use it while playing the game and it doesn't even look good enough to display.

 

[imjust1n]

How did the pip boys edition drop soff much on ebay. No one even has the device did they release a shit ton more?

Here's an English version of the Pip-boy Edition unboxing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRHjy-0HKaQ

 

[OverBlood 3]

I'm really happy the season pass is included in this version, adds a nice bit of value at least.

It doesn't. You get an ad about the season pass, not the season pass code.

I didn't realize it did until just now. I was seriously debating on cancelling my preorder, but I'll keep it anyway.

Edit: Aw man. No season pass?

 

[Charcoal]

I'm really happy the season pass is included in this version, adds a nice bit of value at least.

It's not. It's just a leaflet advertising the season pass.

 

[Ultimadrago]

It's not. It's just a leaflet advertising the season pass.

Welp

 

[Tesseract]

that's big and ugly as fuck, c'mon

 

[WaffleTaco]

Did not know that it came with a season pass...I kind of want to cancel it because I ordered two too many.

 

[Jeronimo Jones]

I kinda wanted one at first, but that's money and space saved. It really is bulkier than I expected, though.

 

[RPGCrazied]

They should have did a lunchbox again, like they did for 3. That was worth it.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Wait so people on Gaf Buy/Sell thread arent selling it cheaper now from the goodness off their hearts? The cheats!

 

[piratepwnsninja]

Yeah, I'm probably going to cancel mine, too.

OH

MAN

Thanks Bethesda.

 

[Interfectum]

I was expecting the pip-boy to look like shit but this far surpassed my expectations. And the edition doesn't even come with the season pass? lol what the fuck.

 

[Tesseract]

just get one of these

 

[Matush]

They should have did a lunchbox again, like they did for 3. That was worth it.

Yup.

Cross post from Fallout 4 Gold thread:

That Pipboy edition looks very cheap, I am dissapointed with this edition. That's why I didn't even bother pre-ordering it. Fallout 3/NV collector editions were much better.

 

[Hasney]

I'm easily keeping mine, but hell, I'm getting the beer, so I'm insane.

 

[Riddler]

Here's an English version of the Pip-boy Edition unboxing

Thanks for posting this! God I wish this game was coming out next week. The wait is going to kill me.

They should have did a lunchbox again, like they did for 3. That was worth it.

It comes with a stand so I'm ok with it. Of course it'll go next to my lunchbox & bobble head.

 

[OverBlood 3]

I love the big white

MADE IN CHINA sticker on the back of the case as you open it.

I wonder if that's canon.

 

[Lothars]

I still don't know, I am tempted to keep my preorder but the more I look at it the more I am tempted to cancel.

 

[Hasney]

That pip-boy will look great on my MGS V robot arm.

 

[xRaizen]

I'm glad I didn't order this. Would rather get the regular edition and wait to see what the Season Pass has to offer and spend the money I save on the PB Edition on that, if the DLC is worth it.

 

[gordon1470]

After seeing these videos, I am having second thoughts about my Pip-Boy edition order as well, not sure it's worth it anymore

 

[TheCochese]

A bit too doo-doo brown, but it's about what I expected. I'm keeping my order, it's only $34 more than what the socks edition would be, and I get the steelbook as well.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Damn it!
I just changed my Galaxy S4 phone to a S6 Galaxy Edge+ earlier this week, and just found out about the size limit on that pip boy thing. And I was happy about pre-ordering this edition too.

I guess I can use it for display purposes, because everything else that comes with the package is great.

Too bad the season pass isn't included.

 

[MiguelItUp]

I guess I'm one of the minorities that's really excited about it. I was bummed about my Nexus 6 fitting in it. But after thinking about it, I think I'd prefer to buy a $10-$15 Android phone for it. I'd be worried about someone calling me while using it, that is, if my phone could fit in it in the first place.

 

[GavinUK86]

That Pip Boy looks amazing lol. I don't have a phone that'll fit into it though

Might have to buy something cheap just to use with it.

Or maybe I could ducktape my iPad to it.

 

[Akibared]

It's always looked like a big dumb piece of plastic why are people surprised? I knew what I was getting into and I'm going to love it!

 

[imjust1n]

Stop bashing the pip boy guys you saw what it looked like when it was shown and they told you what was included. You pre ordered because of hype. Just cancel let someone else that really wants it get it. I think it looks cool and I'm excited to pick it up.

 

[a harpy]

Yeah, it doesn't even look bad. It looks like the pipboy looks in-game, just new. It's got a metal clasp and it lights up. It's exactly what was advertised. I think it's great, among some of the best physical CE items I've seen, and it'll look great on my shelf next to the rest.

Look at that. It even has the fisher price shine in-game.

10 out of 10, wood bang.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

I mean who wouldn't want that pipboy on a shelf in a gaming room? I sure do.

 

[Tovarisc]

I love the big white

Vault-Tec stole its design from China after all and this lead to Great War!

I guess people expected it to be less... glossy and have more worn/metallic finish to it.

 

[Horse Detective]

Haha.

It's a Pip Boy that looks awesome and works with a smartphone in game. And that still isn't enough for some people.

Haha. Alright.

 

[TheCochese]

If it were a darker brown, it would be fine.

 

[NIGHT-]

Wish it worked with my 6s plus

 

[piratepwnsninja]

Haha.

Yeah, the lunchbox and bobble head were way cool and I like playing with the chips that came with NV.

I'm keeping my Pip-boy pre-order, though. I think it'll be cool. I just hope that there's an android app at launch so I can use my

in it, if it fits. I think it will.

The New Vegas one did have a lot of cool shit in it. The deck of cards, the platinum, chip and some other stuff.

I cancelled this mainly because it was getting tough for me to justify spending an extra $80 on the game. Not because the pipboy looks shitty or anything. It looks exactly like it's been advertised.

 

[LQX]

... I found this unboxing video of the Fallout 4 Pip-Boy Edition (PC)

Wow, I want it for the box alone. Hell, I might even sell the Pip Boy and keep that. The Pip Boy is way too shiny.

Also I had no idea it came with the season pass. That makes it worth it even more.

Unfortunately it doesn't come with the season pass.
