Official: Future Fallout Locations Suggestions Topic #13

Maybe Chicago wouldn't be a bad location, I suppose.

The MWBoS are located there right?

They got their start just outside Chicago at least 5 year before Lyons was born. So yeah its safe to say they are in the Chicago :fallout:

But remember, BETHESDA is developing it. Do you want their svcky writing to ruin that region and BoS and story in general? And hack and slash and become the leader of the guild in 2 hours?

I thought about that myself and I came to the conclusion that if Bethesda gets a new writong staff then I'm totally for it, if they don't then they can [censored] up the east coast some more either way bigger maps are needed.

That is true :sadvaultboy:

Second to the NCR the MWBoS are they favourite faction. If Barnaky is running it than even better. I do hold out some hope Bethesda will learn that writing is important in Fallout. Fallout 3 has created alot of conflict. New Vegas has done a good job ending someone of that conflict. That and many people going out and playing the original Fallouts and then looking back on Fallout 3 and seeing its many many flaws.

So I hope not even Bethesda will be stupid enough to split the fan base even more. They are a very rich company, how hard would it be to hire writers that are real educated writes with real experience with an RPG. They hire Obsidian to make New Vegas which was a smash hit. So maybe, just maybe they can hire some real writes. Maybe after New Vegas the people at Bethesda that will work on Fallout 4 have made friends with the people of Obsidian and they can toss ideas back and forth. Now that Tim Cain is working with Chris Avellone and J.E Sawyer and the other wonderful men and women of Obsidian, it would be foolish not to keep in touch with them and ask for advice. Maybe even hire them and co-work with them.

I am a pessimist realist by nature, but I can have a dream right? A man can dream *looks into the night sky*

Says the guy who claimed that Texas and Nevada/California were in the same general area. You're again, flat out wrong in saying the only real history of the US, is in New England and . . . Hawaii? <--- Seriously, you're going to say Hawaii has more US history, than the mainland? You're seriously delusional and oblivious to US history, so my advise is you just try and stop claiming things about a country, you don't understand or know much about. You don't see anyone else on here, claiming to know the history of your country, or anyone else's, but are just flat out wrong, so don't try and do it with the US, you only look silly.

Ever heard of the American South? It's rich with history, and not just of the Civil War, but plenty of other events and wars happened in the South that shaped it. The most famous battle of the War of 1812, Battle of New Orleans, took place in none other than New Orleans, Louisiana which is in the South. The Midwest, plenty of songs and stories, and history written about it during the 1930s. Pacific Northwest has tons of Native American culture not like that of the Plains or Southwestern Native Americans, or even Eastern Natives. Not to mention, it would be, during the war with China in the Fallout Universe, a major place for lumber considering that's what it's best known for.

I could go on, but I won't since it really makes no difference, you never listen to reason.

Yes and most of it is not mutch older then 100-200 years and that not mutch of a history, in the rest of the world it′s counts as Modern history.



Because Fallout's jumping off point is 1950s Americana, and how people of 1950s America, viewed the end in a very dramatic way. Take away that, and you don't have Fallout. It's already been discussed to death, on previous threads. I suggest you look into them, to see why Fallout is America only, and possibly Canada and Mexico, since both were annexed by the US before the Great War and probably in some ways turned into more American places.

If it was in Britain or Europe, or anywhere, it shouldn't have the Fallout title, it should be something else. But Fallout is solely focused on the 1950s Americana that was America before the Great War, and the aftermath of that '50s Americana.

no the game will go global sone or later!

No it won't.

The only possibility is J.E. Sawyer's liking on a resource war spin off.

What does history have to do with wanting Fallout outside of America? Most people in Fallout Universe don't even know about America. If they have heard of the name America before, they don't know much about its history. Even the guy in Rivet City that spent is life studying American history screws it up.

So taking a game to say England going to be different? They wouldn't know about events of 2077, let alone events of 1066.

That guys just a cOllector of the stuff. He screws it up because Bethesda wanted the player to laugh at his wrong info AND it's not like we know EvErYtHiNG that happened in our history, so ur comment is invalid. Holy [censored] my iPod is slow.U

Oh! Edit! Sorry, read your comment wrong whoops.

America. 50s vibe, main language is English, oh and like cod, the Americans like being the Americans :shrug:, aka having their games set

You really like your 50's vibe don't you, well England had a large 50's vibe and really the fallout series is set in the 60's...

My point is Fallout isn't about the past, and most people (in the Fallout Universe) don't even know about America. What it was about or its history. So going to another part of the world isn't going to be any different. It would be like Buzz Killington.

Player: "All right a game finally set in the UK"

Buzz: "Before you start your wasteland journy, I thought it would be grand if we discussed at length the Battle of Hastings.

Fallout is how the people of the 1950s pictured the Future, only nuked to hell.

Britian's 1950s is different from America's 1950s. Most of the stuff we know and love about Fallout, wouldn't be in other parts of the World. It wouldn't really be Fallout as we know it. It would be a game set in the Fallout Universe but would be very different from the Fallout series. It would be a spin-off series.

it wasn't me that stretched the need of rich history in an area,
The only thing i can see in history on the area is the old buildings, if it have stand that to day in 3-500 years it will probably be the in the wasteland to...or how to say it!
And also to bend the local lore and stereotypes of the ppl,

Since there's this Fallout going global argument, I'll give you people an metaphore: If you have to choose between going to the store to buy apples or grow a apple tree for years, which would you choose?
Now let me explain that: Bethesda will make FOs more easily if its based on USA(and mexico,canada who knows), since they know about it and they dont have to make up tons of new lore for every game. If on the other hand they'd make it outside it North America it would take loooong to get their facts and lore straight and still there'd be mistakes. So apples from the store represent N-A fallouts and own tree represents global fallouts.(This is just my way of trying to stop this argument)

:wallbash: Seriously? Like I said, you just sound silly when trying to talk about American History, so I suggest you stop because you're just digging yourself a deeper hole. There's more history to the Americas than people of European decent . . . ancient history, as old as the rest of the world's history.

I think you misunderstood the discussion. Like usual, Vajan brought up his Fallout 4-10 list, and I asked him why Alaska and Hawaii would be the last places in the US Fallout could be placed, because there is still plenty of places untouched by Fallout. I listed some of the places in another post, on the other page. Anyway, I stated that these places were filled with as much history as the Southwestern US, and simply Bethesda could look at these place's history, and get a feel for them and take from the history what they wanted, and use it in a Fallout title. I'm not saying they make a faction that's based of one of these historical groups, like Caesar did with the Legion, but simply have a, "history repeats itself," sort of tinge, where there might be a group somewhere that resembles in action and mission, not clothing or anything like that, a historical group in American history.

For example, there could be a small group of anti-NCR rebels, preparing to raid an armory in some small town for weapons, looking to build a rebellion. It would be a "history repeats itself", of the Harper Ferry's Raid in 1859.

As others already said before: Chicago! I want to know what happend to the MW-BoS and which ending is canon.

For locations outside America: Depending on the writing a spin off series could be awesome or terrible.

In Fallout 2, right out side of NCR is a large Slaver compound that NCR seems to do nothing about. The Rangers on the other hand are against slavery. If you wipe out the slavers they give you a badge.

So on one hand NCR condones slavery and fights it with the other.

Again, I'm not saying it's 100% recreation of what's already been done, just resembles it in some ways. These anti-NCR rebels could be storming this armory for a whole list of different reasons: just simply in need of weapons, to make a point that the NCR isn't untouchable by these rebels, it all depends, but it's not just a Fallout rehash of the real Harper's Ferry Raid. In the Harper Ferry's Raid, they took hostages, but in the Fallout version, they might not take hostages, and just be going straight for the armory. It might not defuse like it did at Harper's Ferry, and the rebels might just get wiped out then and there. Not everything has to be exactly as it was in history, but just resemble it.

@Dr Strangelove & Savage - Hey hey hey, don't beat on us Mainers! :tongue: Though, what you say is 100% true. :sadvaultboy:

I apologize. I don't know anything about Maine :sadvaultboy: I'm not from the US. Betcha you don't know much about Sweden anyways!

Generalization much?

I now people from other countries who go into rage mode ridiculously easily and then there are people born in America who can hold their temper for years.

Stereotyping is what starts wars.

WHAT??!?!? WHAT ARE YOU IMPLYING, HUH?!?!? THAT WE EUROPEANS GET ANGRY EASILY?!?! WHO ARE YOU CALLING ILL-TEMPERED, HUH?!!! A FREAKIN' SAVAGE, THAT'S WHO!!!

Just learned your sarcastic and that seargent peanut is very against radroaches, styles is very smart, king of waste is a nice dude and.... Thats good for 2 weeks

You left me out :sadvaultboy: I'm probably the most valuable, interesting, intelligent and funniest member on this forum, but oh well, what does that matter when people are nice and are against radroaches?

No, I am not a nice guy.

He certainly is not! He's one of those aliens with weird fetishes of putting technology up our rectum. He's trying to make us think and do like he wants by emitting thought-waves that smells of strawberry into out ears! He's just trying to make us believe he's not really a nice guy. And *bzzzt* he isn't. Yes... yes, master.... you truly aren't.... nice....
