I would be very happy to see more customization.

I love how some armors look in FNV (Legion centurion armor) with one arm being stripped power armor, why couldn't we make our own armor? by taking some power armor and ripping parts off rendering it useless and taking away from the protection it offers, the part that is a stripped wouldn't be as protective as it was connected to the full suit. And we would be able to do this with most armors with the exception of a few unique armors and fraction armor (mixed fraction armor would cause a lot of bugs).

We should be able to do this with weapons as well strip down two weapons (shotgun and assault rifle) pick one of two types of ammo shotgun shells or rifle rounds, pick a stock shotgun or rifle, the rest of the parts for a gun. Again with the exception of a few unique weapons, special names or special looks.

Also I would love to see a semi customizable house (getting a bit Sim related I know) but a cool hide out is something everyone would like at least most people and what better way to make it cool then let everyone make it their own way? Give a blank house buy your bed and walk to one of a few places beds are able to be placed (highlighted in green) and set the bed get a pop up saying "is this where you would like to place your bed?" Yes or No and allow it to be moved later if you want to move things around if you like.

Making your own ammo, food, drugs is a great thing from FNV I would love to see in the next Fallout, a new addition would be cool to have a bed roll kit from close to the start of the game (for hardcoe players especially since they will need to sleep and fast travel takes days) sleeping in the wild could also be dangerous what with all the animals around and raiders.

Civilization is forming once more, you won't feel like you're struggling to survive at this point less you're as backwards in progress as DC.

I don't want the game to get repetative (Skyrim showed me Bethesda knows how to be repetative) and I would rather spend hours comparing philosophies and learning about interesting factions than making sure I get food for the night. It just doesn't make sense with all of that time passed.

Depends on your playstyle. A wasteland vagabond who isn't using super human strength to carry around hundreds of pounds of stuff to sell all of the time and getting themselves rich may find that they are trying to survive day by day in New Vegas. Being in a settlement, unless your character is dirt poor, shouldn't be a struggle to survive, but wasteland excursions between settlements and especially off the roads should be a dangerous gamble. I think New Vegas does a good job with this. The Fallout universe is going to be far more dangerous than our own for a long time. There should be a healthy mixture of successful settlements, slums, decimated settlements, safe roads, and dangerous roads, interspersed with varying degrees of dangerous open wastes. Starting out as a nobody wastelander definitely should be a struggle if you're travelling all of the time, and certain areas should be a struggle regardless of your level or equipment unless your have the best equipment.

Hey I will probably just post once here to share my opinion about what I would like to see in the future.
Well first of all I'll start by stating that I really prefer the RPG aspect of the game and not the FPS, I enjoyed seeing the ruins everywhere and to see how civilization looks like after every one and everything dies out
One of the things I would like to change is always to have dialog options which are only moral and only immoral (I recall I had a few instances that no matter what I choose someone ends up suffering).
So while having a dialog I would like to see options that 100% positive, Money decision (make the decision that earns most), 100% negative, 50/50 neutral and everything else
I absolutely liked all the dialog and I would enjoy seeing that area improved, add more dialog or tape recordings or whatnot

Less fights if you choose to, add more perks or reputation status for each faction, mob or wild animal, I would enjoy this game just as much if I wouldn't need to kill a single person.
Of course some people do enjoy killing so leave that at default, but to be able to avoid them by obtaining perks, diplomacy, bribing, buying cities out, gaining reputation etc.
Example of what I didn't like in New Vegas were:
Those drug users with the skulls on their head? >_> what was their name? they would always attack you and I think it was not necessarily.
Hmm like super mutants in fallout 3, it would've been nice if you could be friendly with them too (not saying it should be easy) by doing missions for them and whatnot >_>

More separate cities, villages etc.
In which you could buy the city, certain stores, hire people, protect people, upgrade the city, clean the city from rubble, construct machinery and gain daily income from business, etc.
To be able to actually make the city look new after investing a lot in it.
Form your own city from scratch maybe? build your own house from scratch? (that would be nice)

Technology hidden houses.
One of the biggest things I liked was to find "Secret" places where you had hidden doors and such specially like the vault under the gas station in fallout 3 etc.
More vaults which were never open before, I mean fully functional or that you can repair them, where you can win the trust of the people and so on, I really like all of those dialog's and cities I guess
Mobility? fix a bike or a car or ride a mutated horse? running around the desert for hours exploring is kinda boring >_>
Pet mobs? which you can mutate further? O_o sweet.

Basically I would like to see much more done in the RPG side of the game, more options, more dialog, less fighting (if I don't want to fight), more economy, more options (yeah I said that twice) have the ability to upgrade and physically alter things around you improve buildings, fix and clean them etc.

Thanks for listening (if you did) and hopefully I'm able to make a change
Thanks a lot! this game is awesome already so no worries of disappointing me
Cya everyone!

I wouldn't like dialogue with clearly good, bad and greedy options, it would take all the challenge away from determing what is the best way to help or hinder people. I do agree with the suggestion that peaceful/diplomatic characters would be more viable option.

Meh Im tired of all the one time then on to the next style storylines I have bought every fallout game not just the ones made by beth and I have a bit of advice... Noones goona replay the same fallout game over and over again I have the last 2 made by beth and they sit on the shelf XD. I play BOS more often, Why? Multiplayer. Cod does amazing and why? Noone gives a crap about the story line they care about multiplayer so focus your budget on that and you will have a game with great replayability. I understand not wanting to run a server so add Co-op with pvp elements in it. I for one will not buy a game just for the storyline when I can look up the story on youtube... Better yet ill just go see a movie.

P.S. to all you new "Fallout Fans" you know nothing.

Indeed, the juxtaposition of the dinosaur "new fans know nothing" attitude and advocating both Fallout: BOS and a focused budget on multiplayer . . . I just don't believe it.

no one wil replay the same fallout game over and over again hahahahahahahahahah thats funy cause every body i know who got the game has replayed the game over and over again me my self have played fallout 3 like probably close to 20 times i've played new vegas like 4and a half times. and i say half because when i first got it it got stollen a week later and then i wasn't able to play until this time last years then then i bought it again played through it like 2 or 3 times got it stollen again. then i just waited untill the ultimate edition came out and bought it again.


so i don't know what your talking about when you say no one is gonna replay it and [censored] if my new vegas gets stollen again i will just go out and buy it again so i can play through it again and again. i've also bought fallout 3 three times to and my sisters boy friend has played through both of them so many time its just rediculess he has gotten every single achevment in fallout 3.

the only game i ever got all the achievments was Oblivion but now i'm off track here. but yeah that statment of yours is wrong lol.

One thing that I would really like to see would be a major improvement of the VATS system, where choosing VATS would lock you into real turn based combat until that combat session is over. So there would still be real time combat, but then choosing to go into VATS would cause the camera to draw back a little ways and show you all of the combatants within the area, then you go into turn based combat like it was in the originals. You use all of your action points on any enemies than they use all of their action points on you, and the game doesn't end that the turn based combat until combat is over. So it would make VATS a real turn based option while still allowing the player to fight in real time if that's what they prefer.

I wouldn't like dialogue with clearly good, bad and greedy options, it would take all the challenge away from determing what is the best way to help or hinder people. I do agree with the suggestion that peaceful/diplomatic characters would be more viable option.

My idea is that there should of course always be a neutral, a polite and a rude speech option in a dialogue without adding any special ones from Skills, Stats, Perks, Traits, Reputation or Karma here. And with "polite and rude" is something like "Quit rambling, get to the point"-kind of rude, not something Evil. You can be an evil but polite character (many psychopaths are nice to people... unless they are the victims) or a good character with good intentions that just find people annoying when they don't get to the point... hm, maybe that's a neutral option?
Anyways, what I am saying I wouldn't like any ass-licking good "I'mma help save your kitten for no charge because I'm that nice" speech options or psychopathic "I'mma murder your family for lulz" evil options, they all should be more neutral unless you have good Barter skill (then you'd focus on awards like a merc, like it is now), good Persuasion skill (with the options of persuading people, like with Speech now) or good Deception skill (used for all Lying options and fooling people into doing something, can also be used for cheating at gambling).
So far so good, right? You'd mostly be neutral, with polite and rude speech options... maybe something that is good-ish when appropiate too, since all humans feel the best when doing good (it boosts our egos).

What I would like here, though, is speech options based on your Karma! If it's rather low, you can say some evil stuff. Some stuff that will impress the boss of an evil faction so that it may unlock a few unique quests and by doing them getting a great bonus of Reputation with a few other bad factions, granting more content for their story and quests! Saying evil stuff to goody two-shoes will intimidate them, either freak out and run away or they'll give you what you want, or they'd get mad and become hostile. It could be both good and bad, like threatening some NCR officer into not attacking the Khans for example, stating you'd do something so evil that he backs out although not scared but just shocked like "You'd... actually do that? You sick [censored]. Alright. but if I ever see you again, I'll kill you myself... Soldiers! Mission aborted." Basically, it'd be like that Terrifying Presence perk although actually useful and you'd get it automatically when you get bad enough karma (and loose it automatically when you gain too much karma).
The same would go for the Goody Two-Shoes karma option, in many situations it would be good for you, in others it would be bad for you. Choosing the good option when talking to the leader of a raider that has kidnapped you might not be the wisest of choices.

Then of course there should be Speech options based of your Reputation, if you're roleplaying the self-loving kind "Maybe you've heard of me, I saved Goodsprings from certain death!"

And all these options based of Stats and Skills that doesn't have with how well you talk or how good/evil you are, but your knowledge you have, as well as Perks and Traits like Lady Killer and all of those.


What I am saying is... MORE SPEECH OPTIONS BASED ON EVERYTHING YOU CAN BASE SPEECH OPTIONS ON AND I GET HAPPY! I LOVE SPEECH! KEKEKEKEKE!

[Breautiful]

snipped!

Those are some great ideas! I too would like more use for karma, reputation and such in speech. And what wouldn't I like more than playing an polite psycopath character .

We don't know if it is everywhere, it is really all because of the BOS and NCR that there is any civilization in the games so far. They could be flukes for all we know, the last time we had anything similar to what happened to the pre-war civilization fall was the collapse of the Roman empire. And if your remember your history it took a long time to bounce outta that one.

Lol most of you that are "New fans" just bought the game because you wanted to try Elder Scrolls but with guns, Have fun. You have no idea what the original fallout games are about and because of you guys all we will ever get from a Fallout game is an Elder Scrolls tainted version. If you stopped buying everything beth s**ts out theyd be forced to make a good game with multiplayer but nope you keep forking over your 50 dollars to read the next chapter of their storyline. It makes me sad.

Brave words with no facts to back them up. I for one started fallouts from 1, continued onto 2, then tactics and so on. I play them still and must say that story is about 50% or more of them. So now I'll just copy your style and say(write): Enjoy your brainless shooters!

Edit: Oh and I won't start to argue about this, just sayin'.

You are about 4 years too late with these posts.

Anyways, how does multiplayer make for a better game? I like story and dialogue over going on rampage with or against your friends or random people. Well, for that I have Killing Floor and Tribes and they are boring as [censored] unless you're with a few friends. I used to play L4D too, but it was different, it had story in its multiplayer and all that writing on the walls which were interesting reads.
And you bash on TES players who only know about Fallout 3 and New Vegas that they don't know anything about the original Fallout games, but they were singleplayer too? I don't understand what you are saying.

You claim to be a true Fallout fan and yet you are advocating multiplayer and the Burned Game? You do realize that saying these things(and the way you are saying them) is not the right way to get your ideas heard.

That! Hahaha. I'd be so shocked if I once turn on a ham radio, and instead of hearing just that static noise, someone replying "yeahello?"

I turn every HAM radio I find without even thinking about it. If one of them just said "hello" while I did it I might just spill tea(not a euphemism).

Personally I want to see Fallout London. (FLAMESHIELD) I don't care about the America only 'argument'.

If they did insist on an American storyline though I'd go for Detroit. Have the home of American automobiles become a thriving industry center right up until the war, when it became a military producing power house.
Have the BoS from Chicago and Lyons clash over technology buried deep in the factories, themselves spreading deep underground, on the surface buildings piled upon each other. Finally finish off the Enclave in a decision between their evil, the BoS middle ground and Lyons liberal side.
Have the enclave remnants be extremely secretive like they were in two, dealing with the more right wing BoS leaders in a conspiracy to take control of the brotherhood, turning detroit into a slave powered military producer for the enclaves last attempt to rise back to power.
