Pip-Boy 3000

Vorlage:ItemVorlage:GamesDer Pip-Boy 3000 ist ein am Arm angebrachter Computer der von RobCo Industries produziert und zu den Modellen gehörte die in Vault-Tec Vaults zum Einsatz kommen. Die 3000A-Serie war die erste Version des Pip-Boy 3000. Spätere Modelle hatten mehr Funktionen, jedoch behaupten einige Techniker, die 3000A-Serie wäre die Zuverlässigste.

Geschichte

Der Pip-Boy 3000A (the model the player is equipped with, though it is indicated there are other models, with A being one of the oldest) wurde von den Pip-Boy Programmierern mit einigen Funktionen, wie Stats, Umgebungskarten, getragene Items und einem Geigerzähler ausgestattet. Zusätzlich hat er einen Radioempfänger und eine eingebaute Taschenlampe. Der Benutzer kann außerdem die Bildschirmfarbe ändern. Die 4 erhältlichen Farben sind: Grün, Blau, Weiß und Orange.

Pip-Boy Licht

Am Pip Boy ist zusätzlich eine Taschenlampe angebracht. Diese hat keinen fokussierten Strahl und bietet daher eine gleichmäßige rundum Ausleuchtung der näheren Umgebung

Um das Pip-Boy Licht zu verwenden muss die Pip-Boy taste gedrückt & gehalten werden. Auf dem gleichen weg kann man es abschalten.

Das Pip-Boy Licht macht es auch einfacher den Verwender im Schleichen zu entdecken, sogar bei Tageslicht mit einem aktiven Stealth Boy oder Chinese Stealth Suit.

Funktionen (Fallout: New Vegas)

• Coming Soon

Sonstiges

• Pip-Boys, die von NPCs getragen werden sind immer auf das Stats Tab eingestellt. Dieser ändert sich aber nicht, wenn sie verwundet werden.
• Stanley Armstrong comments that the Pip-Boy 3000 is so durable that he guesses you could drop a bomb on it and it would still work. He adds, "In fact, I know you could."
• According to Stanley Armstrong, the biometric seals prevent it from being removed, and Gary 23 in the Outcast Outpost had his arm cut off because he couldn't part with it.

Behind the scenes

Concept-Art des Beta Pip-Boy 3000

It would appear that at one time or another, the PipBoy 3000 was going to have a tunable radio, (possibly for hidden radio stations in certain locations) a far more GPS-like map feature and a more digital font judging by concept art found in the textures archive under interfaces/shared.
