as we all know even in the alternative reality taht the UK and US will be very powerful so what happened to the UK in the great war did we have are version of vaults or did we barly get nuked at all or what happened. also would you like to see a fallout set in the UK

The UK was probably a part of the European Commonwealth, which dissolved into bickering nation states after a war with the middle east.

Also they were also Nuked to Hell like the rest of the world.

Well, if Alistair Tenpenny could reach the D.C. Wasteland, Great Britain must've been less-than FUBAR after the Great War. Try listening to the FO1 intro, Britain probably got into the Europe vs. Mideast conflict in the Resource Wars. My reasoning would be that they used up their North Sea petroleum and natural gas reserves.

honestly i cant say i would like fallout in the uk. i mean nothing aganst the uk i just like playing in or on american citys or locations more because of the more home feeling i guess. plus i like to see the aftermath in my country more than the aftermath of a nukear war in a different country.

Blown to bits, kinda like regular scenarios. It would be cool to have a game in the UK too.

It got nuked, not much less....

I recokn they would have had some special vault like places where people have survived (important people), but im betting its nothing like in america.

EDIT: changed my post, for some reason i totally misread the topic.

I still think Tenpenny is just totally goofballs and EmilPags is just screwing with us saying he's really from Merry Old. I mean, look at what chameleons, lobsters and turtles became through mutation. Now imagine what sharks will be like.
Anyone venturing over that ocean will get eaten.

Enough rant, even if he came from kingdom to states, the situation on the other side can't be any better.

Not neccesarily. Folks emigrate from developed country to developed country all the time, and sometimes even to undeveloped country.

Could just be he had an adventurous streak in his youth he grew out of.

Hmmm... someone might've decided to resurrect the zeppelin and avoid being on the ocean altogether, though it would take fuel of some sort. I remember some kind of mini-apparatus in my HS science class that separated water into hydrogen and oxygen - that might work. Drop a few buckets a bunch of times a day, put the hydrogen into the engine, release the oxygen, dump the salt overboard and there you go.

That would be a "Hofmann Voltameter"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hofmann_voltameter

Relatively simple device - run a DC current through water.

However, Hydrogen is a dangerous thing if not stored and treated right, or if the airship happens to hit a storm en-route. It would be a very adventurous person that used one to travel over the atlantic with little or no meterological and navigation information.

An airship is a great undertaking even at the best of times - there'd be a lot of resources required.

In the Fallout world, I'd be suprised if the NCR didn't have some sort of baloon or zepplin force as its clearly within their capabilities, even if just for recognisance and spotting; Vault City and San Fran could have easily developed these also; in Tactics the WBOS are shown to have definately developed airships - However Lyon's group apparently walked to DC.

i would say the UK is probably pretty good shape with moriaty's dad coming from ireland there must be enough tech to get them over there though it can't be much better than the states

That's the same [censored] as with Tenpenny. Wouldn't be too much of a stretch to say that Moriarty's dad was more plastic than he would admit.

I think we need a 'Fallout: World Tour' to explore what condition other countries are in post-war.

I'd preorder. :fallout:

Aside from the nuking, I think Fallout is more of an American game. I don't mean "made for Americans", I mean that it represents an American 50s-vision of a utopia turned into a dystopia; if the perfect 50s America had been nuked by the Soviets, this is what Fallout would be.

So I think that Fallout should stay in North America rather than traveling the globe. I am interested in how the rest of the world is, but at the same time I just don't think it could have a Fallout feel if it doesn't have the American 50s architect (unless the rest of the world started copying us in the pre-war era, but even that is a bit of a stretch).

Though I do want to see how America's hat Canada is doing.

It is "America's First Choice in Post Nuclear Simulation", so why would it involve the UK, unless they had their own vaults and such I suppose.

morairty isnt the son of an irish man he IS irish. the only reason why he's there is because ireland is probably a clan like society like it was meant to be where things got done so he was probably one of the richer clansmen and was able to get a helicopter or somthing.

canada is america in the game so ya we should definatly go to the annexed hat up there. canadian enclave fighting with american enclave with BoS scavanging and the canadian locals vying for independence from the weak canadian goverment and the americans. What will the "state name" do?

I would love a fallout: London. But i doubt it would happen since britan probably sunk after a few nukes

Ok selling points to visit U.K after the bombs dropped.

1. a blitz style feel think giant gun emplacments and barrage ballons, mixed with patriotic and silly stiff upper lip propaganda.

2. Class wars where the rich stayed rich and the poor were put back into a serf like state, and a new emerging middle class seeks to upset the balance, as the middle class is known to do throughout history.

3. Education over pure science, we have had tech scroungers in FO from the begining, but what if knowledge was seen as a source of power in england its self. With the universities forming cultish organizations to harvest as much as posssible.

4. Leading to a new enlightenment and industrial age happening at once.

5. Creatures mutated badgers, foxes, stoats, adders, bees, and cattle.

6. A rich source of gangs, tribes and villians.

7. Every region, country, and county in the U.K has its own dialect and pattern of speech, probably more so than any other nation so with skill the voice acting should be great.

8. And Mutated pidgeons oh yes.

However as few State produced tv shows, movies or books have come close, in fact I would say never have really shown the UK or its people as they are in real life.
We would have to settle for dike van Dyke and cor blimey missus dialogue if a FO: rising kingdom ever comes about.

Most likely, but that sort of thing probably doesn't make that much difference once a nuclear war happens, no matter how well your country is doing at the time, things are going to be pretty bad afterwards. How bad? We don't know, we really don't have much clear information about the state of the world outside America, so I'd say this is a subject that would give Bethesda lots of room to get creative, if Bethesda choosed to explore it.

Now, it would be nice to see a Fallout game outside of America. I mean, I'm fine with Fallout games set on former American soil, and the series could probably continue to go on for quite some time without running out of new things to show without leaving what was once the U.S. After all, the United States is not a small country, and there's a lot of places that we've yet to see in the Fallout world, so we really don't know what most of the country looks like after the war. But in the end, America is not the only place in the world, and I'd like to see what things are like in other countries, this could allow us to see more about how the nuclear war effected not just America, but the rest of the world as well. It would also give future a chance to try a lot of new ideas without fear of introducing continuity errors, it would be an oportunity both to expand the Fallout universe and to test out new ideas.

Still, I suspect that in the immediate future, Fallout games will continue to be set in America.

look up and to your left people. what does it say. AMERICAS FIRST CHOICE IN POST NUCLEAR SIMULATION! point in case.

I think Fallout needs the Americana to sustain a full game. Fallout UK would be a great DLC, but I'll doubt it'll ever happen (due to the inability to reuse so many of existing assets). Which is a pitty - I want to vist the robot butler production facility ("I'm sorry sir, this is a restricted area. Please remain seated while we disassemble you."), the vault under Windsor Castle (don't forget to say hi to Queen Victoria the XII while you're there), and the London Smog (the clean air act didn't come into force until 1952, zero visibility, concealing radscorpians and the ilk)

I hope they go outside of london if they do make a U.K fallout, the north is fantastic for landmarks little known outside of the U.K and has so many millitary bases as well.
And the south and west Cornwall, Devon... all the others on the coast are good picks as well.

I'm sure the UK had vaults aswell i mean,it would be kinda silly if they dident. I mean im from the UK they could build vaults here so,it's a possibility. Heres hoping :foodndrink:
