West New York... some time around fallout 3. You emerge from the vault with your family at age 12, you have a pip-boy 3000. You are taken by the Enclave. They hold a light in front of you. Next thing you know, your with the brotherhood of steel, and there taking you to saftey, you find out that your mind has been erased and you have missed 8 years of it. You are 20 years old and have no idea where your family is or what you have done for the past 8 years.

Now you must find out who did this, why, and where your family has gone. Taking out Enclave through east New York, trying to get your family back to the saftey of the Brotherhood so you may get to the "safe heaven" that everyone talks about.

Ideas: Build the story as you go! find out your past by how you act in game: Assassin, Sharpshooter, explosive expert.
Character Coustomization would be when your woken up by the brotherhood, they ask "is this him?" They hold up a pad with your face on it, you edit it.
Stats are determined possibly through a traing course of the brotherhood... after they find you of course.

Find other people who have also been taken by the enclave (a brother maby) and set them free. Destroy the Enclave and fight your way to the safe heaven with your family.

SPOILER... kinda: If your evil in game maby, then you find out that during your years as a mind wiped slave, you killed your father and mother.

Have you ever seen http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082340/. Take that movie and nuke it a couple of times. That is what I think New York would be like. It would be cool to see. They would need to make a great story around it. New York Is a Big place. I think the entire game would be based around the City Of New York.

for now I would like the Devs and Bethesda to stick with the west coast. Fallout one and two were connected. Van buren would have been 3 and a continuation of the first 2.

Fallout 3 by bethesda took us way off track to the other side of the country. I see it as more of a spin off like tactics or new Vegas. I am getting off topic.

I just want Bethesda to stick to the West Coast and slowely expand east. Games like tactics and Fallout 3 give use Ideas what is happening in other parts of the country. The real player is NCR. I want to see them more.

I get what your saying. I have not seen the movie but...
This could be a game IDEA for the future, of course it needs tweaking, I did come up with it kind of... instantly.

Character Coustomization would be when your woken up by the brotherhood, they ask "is this him?" They hold up a pad with your face on it, you edit it.

Please, if you have any ideas, post them.

I would rather have something that isn't city based this time around. i'd like to see something like swamps or deep forests, with locations scattered around.

Used'ta live there back in the day, so I voted "Yes" just for the sake of seein' my ol' digs in ruins (does that make me sick?).

Thats why its west New York, Still have access to the city but also have access to the plains and farming areas. That way, you get differnt styles of playing if you wanted to. Of course, its not forest or swamp, but locations would really be scattered.

Nope. [:

I dosnt make you sick... trust me, im sure everyone wants to see some town in ashes.
Remember to post your thoughts about this on here... I said thoughts, dont post stupid things.

I tried! I tried not to do it, but I had to vote for Maby, although I do not know who he or she is. Reminded me too much of a whale I once knew...

Good, good.




Was what I said stupid? Heck, I didn't mean for it to be! Well let's see...NYC has some of the most interesting architecture in the U.S. (especially since it's so dense and packed full of buildings) and I'd love to see it broken down and habituated by God knows what. I'd love to go in and explore a half-dilapidated Crysler building and walk over a busted-up Brooklyn Bridge. Hrrrm. Now that I think of it NYC would be great with all the distinct neighborhoods of the boroughs being so close to each other. Exploring and traveling would be excellent. Last but not least I'd love to walk through the west village and fire a few shots at vacated buildings which used to belong to the snobby businesses near my old job. :gun: Heh-heh.

maybe if the enclave abducted your family because your a 'pure strain' human decending from a vault and all. But the BoS saving you, Idk i dont like the enclave or BoS. so maybe someone broke you out and you were brainwashed. I'll type more later.

Wow, can you imagine how scary it would be at night.
It would completely [censored] rule!

Thanks for the idea, the original plan was the enclave taking you to do their experiment, the whole mind wipe thing. Maby in the end, you find they took your memory to "explore" the vault you were in.

or just have a overgrown, swampy Central Park in there somewhere.

Central Park = ghoul infested almost swamp like area. Under one of the bridges have a tunnel to ghoul city, maby used for a quest or something.

I voted maybe. At least I think I did, I choose Maby, I assume that is supposed to be maybe.

The reason I voted maybe is because, honestly, the game plot that was presented, unfortunately, needs some serious tweaking. No Enclave, no BoS. Those have been done to death, and there isn't any reason to have them in NYC. The BoS in DC is the BoS that came to the east coast, so they aren't in NY. Same deal with the enclave, they werre based in DC/Andrews Base, not NYC.

But, there is still a way to do this. Mass is right by NYC, and Bethesda already introduced the Commonwealth and the Institute, they could have a large presence in the city. Create some kind of opposition, maybe a technology hating group to oppose them, plus the underground railroad for freeing Androids, and have the sorely need in FO3 ability to choose who you work with, not just railroad you with the "good guys" even if you're evil, and you've got a good place to start.

Remember you were a mind wiped slave your entire life so, the Enclave have a seceret underground base below the city which is now mostly blocked off after the bombs fell. The area was used as a science lab for mind control. You have been captured so you know its real. the BoS is there to rescue you and others that were taken, they mainly came to take back one of their leaders who was abducted a few years before, now they know where the base is (finnaly)and they are comming to take it apart. Little do they know, they enclave has a seceret, One which keep the Brotherhood there for much longer than they expected. STORY TIME OVER!
