I personally believe that the mention of an Enclave outpost in Chicago is an obvious sequel hook. Although I am getting sick of the Enclave, I would rather have something dealing with the super mutants again. Fallout Online was hinting at the Master surviving, no reason why Bethesda/Obsidian couldn't bring him back.

1. San Francisco and LA were already covered in either Fallout (LA) or Fallout 2 (SF), and would now undoubtedly be apart of the NCR. Most, if not all of California would be under NCR control by the time of New Vegas. Unless the NCR were to crumble after the final battle at Hoover Dam, which is unlikely since they're probably just going to have a change in governing, and the NCR name will still be around, I doubt we'll be seeing those places anytime soon.

2. As has already been stated several times by others, replaying the Lone Wanderer would kill any chance of being able to RP. If we were to play the Lone Wanderer again, that's all we could be, we couldn't be anything else. The back history of our character, would already be there, and we couldn't change that. It's best to do as New Vegas did with the Courier, and give us a blank slate that gives us hints and chances to fill in minor parts of our history, but not like Fallout 3 did, which was a bad move.


Kansas might not be that interesting of a state, but it still had plenty of landmarks and things, that could make it interesting. Plus, deadly tornados might be a cool thing to have?

I would personally like to see the next Fallout in NYC or Florida.

I would love to see a Fallout take place in a heavy industrial setting. Think: The Pitt DLC. It would play out especially well in Chicago or Detroit, in my opinion.
Or another Fallout in California. It would be interesting at least to revisit and expand on the Boneyard.

then i guess Stalingrad or some similar must be the perfect place for that !

I'd like to see the next Fallout set primarily around a large metroplex, perhaps Chicago or Seattle. The Chicago/Great lakes and Seattle/Vancouver/PacNW has a ton of potential.

But again, the area from Denver south to Albuquerque would be prime as well. You have cities, interesting topography, wildlife and so much of the command/R&D aspect of the military (NORAD, NORTHCOM, Air Force Academy, Los Alamos National Labs, Sandia, Trinity, etc.). There is also much potential for tribes/factions.

im in favor of their being something new and different, fallout has been on the west coast for so long that i think it needs to reach out into the middle of the coulntry to continue to seem new and not the same old thing, be it texas or, my second favorite pick, either saint louis or kansas city, but no matter where, i want to see them take a more thoughtful approach on how the dialogue and leveling works.

last standing legion city. i dont care about what state it would be in but it would finish up NV story where you were told that caesar held the legion together. so if legion would divide itself after caesars death, and be systematicly destroyed its last city would make an center piece for a new fallout. it would probably satisfy many, since some want to see a legion city, other to see it wiped out permamently

But Legion victory is canon and Caesar lives on. There is no way the Legion will be down to one city by the time of Fallout 4 unless the jump maybe 5 decades ahead, Legion owns nearly the whole Central South-West part of America so I don't see all of the just getting wiped out magically by the NCR - maybe an agitated MWBoS but not NCR by a long shot.

caesar is and old man and wont live forever, and what if NCR had nukes? a new fallout might be nice

Caesars only 55, compared to Tandi who was 103 before she died. There are plenty of folk living till their old ages and still being pretty active; Enclave Remnants, Old Lady Gibson and Hanlon to name a few.
What if they did? They're hardly going to use them and ruin the lands they are trying to take over. I'm pretty sure the Legion will have some nukes too - and since they got a howitzer from an Air Force Base, I'm sure if they wanted they could have an air fleet too.

what i meant with that new fallout was that perhaps they would wipe the slate clean: both NCR and legion in ashes and some new faction(or maybe just anarchy) would gain control. and since a legion town would be in "newer territory" than any NCR one it would be great for FO4

But dose that mater ? if the boss die some one ells will tack over the roll in that persons way to See it or it broke down in a civil war some how .... what ever happens it can be a nice story.. maybe they move down to Mexico, .....

but how fun is it to stay in California and Texas in another game? we have already done that area so we need a new area, the world is big so don't get stuck on the same place. The only way the game will be there is if they redo the first games in 3d mode.

If Caesar dies Legion becomes a waste - Lanius is the second in-command and he's nothing but a sword swinging tribal that shouldn't have such power and position. Unless Caesar and Lanius died then there is defiently going to be civil unrest - but then again maybe there won't, it all depends who takes up the reigns after they have passed on.
A good twist would be Caesar dies , naturally or through murder/surgery then after the events of New Vegas Vulpes kills Lanius with poison or in his sleep because of how reckless he has been with the lives of the Legion - Vulpes would create the most fearing of leaders in the Legion because of his cunningness and always watching eye of the Frumentarii, it would be great and hopefully avoid a Civil War or at least end it quicker than it began.

I'd still like to see areas such as Florida or the Northern Commonwealths

wow, that vulpes thing would make for a great plot for the game, also does legion have any secure lands in florida? if not an invasion could be an quite thrilling aspect if done right

Why not russia. Everybody says china yeah thats cool but ,i know china is our enemy fallout wise, but wouldnt russia also get skrewed up in this too.

Plus i also think that they should atleast have a wintery inviroment so we can get snow cammo and for hardcoe mode hypothermia

That's more territory covered by STALKER and Metro 2033 among others.
Anyways, the 50's American theme is a strong must have in the Fallout series, so I don't see a future game taking place anywhere but the United States.

Well im sorry i was thinking mote of dlc as like the brotherhood in alaska is breaking through chinese control and into Russia to claim mote land. Just a thought

Is this hypothetical?

Mine yes.

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_Extreme and I am against it. America was overrunning China at the time of the Great War and China was destroyed just like the rest of th world

It could still be dlc like even if it were russian controlled usa or canada( which i know was anexed) plus i live in russia, er used to so thats my logic behind it

Russia in Fallout (USSR) was also nuked to hell, just like the rest of the world. There is no reason at all to have a DLC that will take us from America, to another part of the world. It would just be stupid.

I'm just throwing out ideas , ok. Sorry i struck a nerve but the whole snow and northerm feel would be good
