Fallout 4 hopes and dreams?

[linkvegeta]

alright, I'm a big follower if the fallout series, since the first one.
but i enjoy Bethesda's version as well. (i don't consider new vegas a game in the fallout series, because i hated it so much)

But is anyone else excited for fallout 4? i know it will run on the same engine that skyrim is being developed on. but even then, if the developers completely leave that stupid barren piece of shit Mojave wasteland and get back to big city's, a well developed story. plus a chance at bug-less game play. well it's something to be excited about. what do you guys think?

umm, doesn't Fallout New Vegas count as fallout 4? What do you mean? the Mojave wasteland was epically better then the capital wastelands. Also while it would be nice I hope they don't make a new one so soon. if they did it would only turn out for the worst. Good games need a lot of development and if they were to throw a new fallout every few years they would degrade and become a cash cow. Bethesda isnt like that....yet.

Fallout three continued the general storyline of the first and second one.
mainly coming from the vault and that stuff. But new Vegas was an entirely pointless money maker. had no real story in it, just big stupid American city people want. who cares. fallout 1,2,3 had substance and something deeper then a kiddie pool. nothing in new Vegas mattered to the general universe.
the Mojave wasteland was bland and boring also, capital wasteland, or vault city. great areas, immersed you onto the world of fallout. a big desert with bandits and big bugs? that's not a nuclear fallout in post apocalyptic status. it's Texas on acid...

Fallout New Vegas followed the story just as much as fallout 3. Fallout new vegas had a much more immersive story. you got to play for yourself and it was way more immersive than fallout 3. Capital wastelands were a mostly copy paste type of land scape while New Vegas had a pile of different colorful environments that were fun to play in. New Vegas had better weapons, more variety, they brought back game play elements to fallout from the first 2.


here i Was about to argue with you when I realized that you must be a troll. Nobody is that arrogant while making claims with nothing to back them up. bye.

Not trolling bud. technical aptitude wise, new Vegas is better then 3. but a story about being some tough individual bad ass ruling a massive dessert with boring people? that's an American fantasy. wheres the humor of the fallout series. the actually well written not Americanized everything revolves around money and power bullshit. How about survival, the constant knowledge that war never ends, the sub text to human nature? it was all thrown away in new Vegas for a cheap side game. sure, theirs ads mode now. big fucking whoop. it has to much structure. there's no hopeless, no horrible onslaught of shit. really the world seems like a badly designed desert game with rpg aspects tacked on.

look at fallout 3's megaton. crazy city built around a bomb. someone wants to blow it up because he can. humans with souls live there. most developed and amazing part of new Vegas? new fucking Vegas. wow. congrats America. can't shove your unsustainable city down the rest of the worlds throats any harder can you. really just stupid idea there.

and while i'm at it, don't let obsidian make any more knock offs of good games. please. it's just stupid. fucked up kotor 2, screwed up new vegas. adding new features does not justify taking away the soul of the game.

Just wanted to point one last thing out to you. You were arguing with me, another Canadian who dislikes the Americans. you said the game was for American city people while I am a Canadian farm boy.

You should also realism just because you don't like a certain game, doesn't mean you start a thread and bash it the whole time. I may sounds like a bit of a hypocrite because I was saying bad things about fallout 3. You were being an asshole and I got hot headed defending a game I liked. Lets leave it at that.

This is what i would like

Improved Engine,
Less Load Time
More Weapons lots more
More Enemies like 'Android's' 'Birds/Flying Enemies'
A Choice of Race 'Ghoul' 'Human' 'Android' 'Super Mutant' with origin stories
HUGE world hopefully one of these
Austin/West Elizabeth/Mexico all in one yes like RDR
New York City and it's Outskirt's
Companions will talk to you as you walk around the world [yes like Dragon age Origins]
More Gore
A ZOO imagine fighting a Radiated Tiger/Monkey's and Rob Schiender
No Spider's
Buyable Mount's like riding Giant Ant's or a Yaoi Guai
LOTS of Music and i mean LOTS and when you complete missions you get more music.
Play your own music while playing the game, imagine listening to 'Won't Back Down' charging into the Enclave with your Sledgehammer
Lots of Custom Weapons to Build
BOAT's i swear there is like 1 Boat in Fallout that has significance
EVEN MORE WEAPONS
Hybrid Enemies [i don't know where i was going with that]
MUSIC did i mention it?
Lots of customizable features while makeing your chacrter eg Piercing,Tattoo's
When you get hurt you can get Scar's


Yeah thats about it

Pretty much all that, right now you can have most of this in F3 and NV but then you'd have to download mods and a bunch of other stuff just to get the mods working properly.
It would be nice to have more races, weapons and what not without spending a bunch of time modding your game instead of playing it.

 

[Crayven]

All i really want, is to know what happens when the brotherhood and outcasts decide to deal with each other, or they make contact with the western elders.
Also, i like that it is in America, im British but it being American trying to reclaim what they was is part of the whole thing.
Its like the whole wild west. That would be weird in other places.

 

[StormShaun]

Cars, boats, helicopters and awesome story missions, I want to see a fallout set in Chicago or whatever it is spelt and in the end of the game you fly a rocket into the moon and destroy the Enclaves new moon space thats about to destroy the world...and your best friend is an Australian...what can possibly go wrong?

Just one thing.

That it isn't made by Bethesda or Obsidian.

 

[coppah20HE]

I'd like the Ability to drive vehicles.
And it should be set in Post-apocalyptic Outback Australia

Can you guess what i'd call my character...
(hint)

 

[coppah20HE]

They'd also have to include the Ford Falcon XB Coupe.

 

[FireCoroner]

Fallout:Ireland
Don't laugh. It might look a little like this:
plus, you could fit the whole country in, instead of having a naff invisible wall.

You are a ninja.
There would be a fallout shelter in the GPO, and mutants in the old army barracks. It would be awesome. I would help to fund this project.

Why fund? Just wait until Sellafield is inevitably dirtybombed and piss off to Galway till the "fallout" subsides (jesus...) then you're shooting mutants off giants causeway with your rusty 1916 service revolver! ta tee-ta ty-ta toe

 

[KingmanHighborn]

Call me ignorant but why the hate for Bethseda. Fallout 3 is the only Fallout game I've played, but it's been several months and I'm still not done yet. That said I wouldn't mind a Fallout Australia, I don't think Americans are that dense to demand destruction of thier own turf. Though Fallout: Charlotte N.C. would be funny if at the very least I could point "Hey I know what that was before it became a crater!" But that said back the Aussie point. The monsters would kick ass, not to mention New Zealand is nearby and the waters between them have giant squid, great whites, etc. So fighting a nuclear spewing kraken might be interesting. The only downside would be that it would get an M rating...and be banned in Australia.

 

[Hyper-space]

I have high hopes for Fallout 4. Theory I've been cooking up; It's suggested that both China and America have been nuked to every last bit of their soil, but it doesn't say too much about every other country. I can imagine the story being a crashed plane from England or something landing in the nuclear ruins of America.

Eh pulled this from the vault wiki
"Allistair Tenpenny came to the Capital Wasteland from Great Britain to seek his fortune, so that alone tells you that the U.K. was also hit in the war. And if he came to U.S. to succeed, that says a lot about how screwed up Europe must be. So we just allude, a little bit, to the state of the rest of the world. We like to leave a lot to the players' imaginations, and somebody like Tenpenny serves as a catalyst for those thoughts." - Emil Pagliarulo[1]

Yeah the European Commonwealth was locked in a bitter inter-war with itself. And once the US and the Reds launched, the Soviets would of too, mutual assured destruction you know. And the rest of the world would of launched as well. I would like to see Canada, due to the following:

-The US Annexation, I would love to see that expanded upon
-It's post-Great War state, Ashur in The Pitt refers to a "Ronto" being a great military power, possibly referring to Toronto, Ontario
-A Vault-Tec letter found in FO3 suggests that either Vaults were constructed in Canada or it is so low priority that it may have been largely overlooked by the Reds

That sounds awesome, not to mention all the bears that were irradiated! oh god, i can see it now...BEARS WITH SIX ARMS AND LAZER EYES! now that would be a wasteland worth exploring!

But seriously, imagine if hardcore mode would have you try to fight off the cold, having to maintain proper body temperature lest you freeze to death. Cold + radiation = harsh as SHIT conditions.

 

[Assassin Xaero]

Made by Bethesda. I never played the first few, but I loved Fallout 3. New Vegas, on the other hand, was horrid compared to it.

 

[5t3v0]

My one hope and dream for Fallout 4 is for it to be developed by Obsidian. Fallout 3 was equal parts short, easy, and unengaging.

Yes we all remember how well Obsidian did with New Vegas......

Quite well actually, considering they had to deal with an engine that is bugged up the arse, with serious limitations, they managed to put out a well rounded and well written (read this: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Randall_Clark_terminal_entries and then tell me that Obsidian has a shit writing team that doesnt "engage" you (WARNING! HONEST HEARTS SPOILERS ) as well as quite interesting and balanced gameplay wise.

New Vegas was great guys, you just werent paying attention.

Edit: changed link, was wrong one.

edit 2: By the way, its missing the final entry at this point... though I cant seem to find it...

 

[Sinisterair]

There has been a hint or 2 dropped about how Fallout 4 will be a sequel to Fallout NV, And in any case that is fine by me.....But i hope they add more things to explore......The Mojave felt empty and uninteresting whereas the Capital Wasteland had something cool around every corner.

They need to have an ending that doesn't stop the story....or at least a DLC ala' Broken Steel style.....those Clips at the end do nothing but paint a vague picture of the immediate Future.

More diverse followers........I cant find a legion follower.....well one i like......the quest lines for it make all the good ones leave you.....

And lastly.....to have Bethesda Dev it.......this has already been confirmed But its still something i was hoping for

The hate for bethesda comes from the original fans (and original story arc observers) the way its disrupted Story canon. Fallout 3 was the first one I played, and I liked it, but as a prospective writer I cannon have that.

 

[Warlordnipple]

Personally I am looking forward to the new elder scrolls more than fallout 4 the engines they make are just made for elder scrolls and the more I play fallout the more I want to go exploring in Cyrodil

well if Bethesda do Dev it, I hope they at lease employ the writers from Obsidian. Sure, if you hate their coding staff so much then just leave them, but the writers are the guys you need, as well as some of the guys who worked on balancing the game.

yeah don't get me wrong i love what Obsidian did with Fallout NV but i would like to see How beth handles it again, And it could only help if they brought on Obsidian Writers

 

[Ainsley Bartlett]

A nuked London would be awesome and could be very atmospheric. I think they might have trouble thinking up dangerous animals for England.

Giant radioactive badgers....actually that's pretty horrifying. *tries to unthink*

You could keep the giant ants, maybe add a flying variant too! Not sure what you could have instead of a radscorpion though. An adder?!

Rad-badger would be instead of a deathclaw and would be terrifying!! Great idea.

Personally though, I'm just hoping for co-op and less major bugs.

 

[ineedscissors]

Fallout 4 should be in Canada. They could carry their snow effects over from Skyrim, and make some really beautiful locations. Also, the whole "America annexes Canada" thing (which, as a Canadian, really interests me) could be elaborated more, maybe with old relics of prison camps, rebellion hideouts and US army installations. The question is: which city/province? Probably Toronto. Fallout: Winnipeg might be too much to ask for.

Personally I hope they don't cheese up the Brotherhood again. Or make the NCR/legion/any other major faction toally "Honourable". Well the fact that New Vegas has bought the NCR and other fallout 1 & 2 features to light Bethesda now have more to play with... Just hope they don't wreck it...
