Yes,i know i will get flamed like crap for this,but why does fallout have to take place JUST in America.I mean like,yea China is a nuclear wasteland,but i WANT to be a Ghoul,ill be the smartest guy EVER.

anyone for it?

if it was china, then there would be either billions of people still or no people if they didnt make vaults. and the reason they dont allow ghouls is that a person with a brain would take advantage of the heal by radiation perk, cuz i know i would.

China would be awesome. It would be a good mix of mountains, jungles and cities. I agree that a China Fallout would be great.

It most certainly would be a starting trait for you if you choose ghoul as your race, and as a trait it would have a negative. Sure, radiation heals you instead, but as a ghoul you propably have penalties in strength, endurance and agility and you will face a lot of bigotry

dont forget Charisma drops to 0,because i sure dont want a ghoul trying to sweet talk me.

vaults are only known in america and maybe canada

The game isn't about the world. It's about America. A Fallout in a faraway place such as China would be problematic as none, and I mean none, of the current story arcs could be used. Additionally, everything over there would be foreign; the designers would literally have to remake Fallout from scratch. Nothing seen in F1, F2, FoT, unmentionable game, F3, FNV could appear in the foreign Fallout.

the chinese pistol sword and assult rifle and chinese clothes where in fallout 3 and would be in china

Well fine, if you want to nitpick, I take it back. 99% of things seen in all Fallout games to this point would not exist in China.

Maybe if you are a human bigot, yes. But if you are a human that doesn't care about looks or a ghoul yourself? Charisma wouldn't drop to 0. You would just have a really hard time as a ghoul to try to come to agreements with a ghoul racist.

im shure theyd like the chalenge

id love to find out what hapend in China. if thay had better ideas on voults . binig made by indeviguale familys or boss and worker governing setup. what factions would emerge. aka old world china vers new world. unarmed and swords would be a mager part of the old world culture. new would be the china peoples republic Army and any tec wepons. :toughninja: :flamethrower:
o ps it dosent have to be in china to be effective alot of infiltraters probly whare in amarica in the time of the booming little china in usa would work to for a start

You will be playing the same kind of game anyway (the factions in China wouldn't be that different), it's still a good game even if it will never take place outside America.

I wouldn't mind a game set in China, as long as the voices are all in Chinese and most texts around the world is in Chinese.
I know most of us won't be able to read it but so be it.
If it's set in China then the language should be Chinese, not English.

Then of course there'd be some chinese who knows english, and probably decendants of american soldiers who were in China at the time of the Great War and survived, or they're ghouls. Maybe many of these soldiers got into cover when the bombs fell, some kind of chinese vault maybe that they had siezed, and maybe not everyone retreated there in time so they had to lock some of their friends out. Then the bombs dropped over China, many of these soldiers died in the blast, many died of radiation poisoning, but some... some turned into ghouls. And they wanted revenge on their superiors who left them outside that vault. These ghouls, with combat armor (even some power armor) and a good arsenal of weapons created a faction, and to it they gathered chinese survivors of the firestorm. Later on, the US soldier decendants open up their vault, to face these revengeful ghouls and their little chinese army. Of course, the humans the ghouls wanted revenge on are long gone.

But really, if everyone would be speaking chinese, then this game would be inpossible for anyone to play except the chinese (and I don't know how much they'd like a game taking place in their bombed-out home country, and it probably will br alot of ingame references that China might be offended by somehow (like how Japan didn't like the nuke in Megaton). So there'd have to be people speaking english. This faction with american ghouls as leaders would probably have learnt their chinese followers english to some degree. And maybe there could be a perk you could take or gain, which makes you understand chinese (that is, the subtitles would show up english but the NPC still speaks his own language)

They could always have subtitles from the start.
I dunno how it is for you but until I became good enough at English I had to watch films with subtitles all the time so I think people could handle a game where they had to focus on reading a little bit more.

To be honest, (and this has nothing to do with the fact that I am from the UK) I feel that if Fallout was to go abroad it would go to a country which spoke English as it's first language (like Canada), it's simply due to the fact that a game where the majority of the stuff being spoken was Chinese would not sell well. And seeing how the Chinese got butthurt over the Tibetan flag being put in Hearts Of Iron the destruction of China by nuclear war would not put this game in favourable terms for the politburo.

I don't think they will do Canada. If there are 100 Fallout games then they will probably do every country you can think of. I doubt there will be that many more Fallout games. They will just focus on major cities or different regions of America they haven't covered yet.

Canada is still the most logical choice for a game taking place in a country that is not USA.

Why not Japan?

I mean, we have one Samurai who talks in Japanese-Edo Era Language

Canada is part of America in the Fallout universe. http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Ronto might be Toronto Canada.

I don't really like the Idea of Fallout taking place in China. I see it as a place with swarms of millions of feral ghouls and nothing much else. After 200 plus years I am sure there has been rebuilding but I don't want a game set there and have it all be about how they are rebuilding to destroy America.

By the time of the Great War America had finally broken the back of China's armies and invaded all they way to the Yangtze River (did not save them from being nuked) and China's annexed lands in south east asia rebelled. I can also picture American troops that survived there.

I also don't want to go to China or any other place overseas and see Brotherhood, Enclave and Super Mutants. Or any knock-offs of them. Power Armour, Robots and fusion power and Vaults were pretty much American only so having them anywhere but in North America would be way out of place.

If they do a game in New York City (probably will be Fallout 5 as some people say after Fallout 4 in Commonwealth) then they would do Ronto as a DLC.

Post-apocalypse is a GENRE, not copyright of Bethesda or Obsidian and I think there are many game studios that can create games similar to Fallout in any location they want.

I am fine with northern locations but I don't want them making snow prominent, it should be summer or fall but definitely not winter. Snowy wasteland is even more dull than desert wasteland.

Yeah but they'd take themselves too seriously or not use SPECIAL....
