Fallout: *Insert City Here*

[WanderingFool]

Well, I live in a little Pennsylvanian town, so I would say Fallout: Pittsburgh, but they already did that with The Pitt for FO3.

What I think would be awesome is Fallout: New York. have most of Manhatten sunk with only the sky-scrapers left above the water, with skyways connecting them.

Europe and the Middle East destroyed each other in their resource war, then Europe destroyed themselves in when the European Commonwealth colapsed. And all of that before the great war. The US and mabye China and the USSR were the only countries that would have been capable of building the vaults, and China had suffered from the US Power Armored soldier invasions along with the majority of the US's nukes. Most European countries with the Resource Wars and their in fighting and then the Great War most likely have nothing left. Africa and South America might have survived the Great War though

I know, I'm a avid fan myself. But that doesn't mean there absolute nothing left. Chances are, there are still a few survivors left. But my point is, we don't know much about the rest of the world during the war and even less after the war, there is much more room for development (story-wise) than in any other place in North-America.

I would personally like to see the US united under the banner of the NCR then have them send the Player Character across the ocean to Europe or Africa. OR maybe Japan or Russia

Fallout: Seattle
Well, there are a lot of really tall buildings to explore. And in a few years, there will be a subway. Plus, we've got Microsoft and Nintendo in this area, so lots of technology. And Zymogenetics.... I don't know what they do, but I see their building all the time (it's all large and isolated) and I feel like something ominous could come out of there.

To bad it will never happen because when people think of Nashville, they think Country Music, with, IMO would be a huge turnoff to some (not me!)

It is for me. I fucking hate country music, and that may be partially because there's SIX COUNTRY STATIONS ON AIR HERE! TIBJretihjryihjjrsyihjrsygihjyjyu


Thank god there's a good rock station. I can drown out the twang with Metallica whenever I want.


The music wouldn't turn me off of Fallout: Nashville though. I can't stand the music in all of the other Fallout games, but instead of not playing I simply replace the music with metal. Does it fit the setting? Not really. Do I care? NOPE!

Yes, 102.9 (if we're thinking of the same station) is Jesus's gift to those of us who prefer Rock in Middle TN.

It is. <3 that station. It's on in my room at all times.

I'll mostly listen to my iPod while around the house for lack of commercials, but when I'm on patrol at work you bet I'm blasting The Buzz.

Fallout: Paris

I want to fight beret-wearing raiders and mutants who attack me with giant baguettes

 

[moosek]

Fallout Vancouver or Montreal... or Buffalo. I live in Seattle, I just think a snowy techno-medieval setting would be awesome.

EDIT: I guess it would be called something different. Fallout: New Vegas was about a post-apocalyptic city state in where only the strong and the privileged can survive. It's set in Las Vegas, but the change the name and vibe. I was thinking of Fallout: Northern Wastes, years after Fallout 2 (which was set in Oregon) and there could be a mystery involving the war between the US and China which broke out in Anchorage.

What people forget is that a Fallout Location would only work in America or possibly in China. For obvious reasons that makes the series the way it is. I think a Fallout New York could work.

Fallout: Rhode Island

Interestingly enough, albeit being rendered debatabley non-cannon with the release of Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout 3 mentioned that Rhode Island and the northeastern US hosted 'The Commonwealth'. The Common wealth was apparently a society that retained or rediscovered most of the pre-war technologies and developed their own, even being able to create androids and cyborgs.

So yes, I'd say a fallout game based in RI would be pretty interesting. Of course, Obsidian would probably tweak the name to "Fallout: Road Island" to be faithful to their trend of intentionally misspelling or abbreviating know geographic locations to drive the whole 'post-apocalypse' theme further.

I'm curious where do they misspell names of locations? Oh and The Commonwealth came from MIT

I should clarify that I misspoke; 'misspell' isn't really the best term to describe their title choices, more like they add a twist to the titular locations of their games. For example, 'The Capital Wasteland' (I know, Bethesda, not Obsidian) is a twist on Washington being the capital of the United States; or 'New Vegas' as a twist on 'Las Vegas'; or 'The Pit' (also Bethesda) as a twist on "Pittsburgh". I interpreted it as them merely staying in touch with the whole 'post-apocalypse' theme as it implies that mankind has been bombed back to a new dark age and is now improperly referring to former states and cities by nicknames and abbreviations as a sign of gross ignorance brought by the collapse of western civilization.

Following the pattern, "Road Island" because 'rhode' is pronounced the same way as 'road' and could possibly be used to tease at the possibility of vehicle combat a la road warrior, which heavily influenced Wasteland and the Fallout games that came after it.

Never heard of MIT referred to as 'The Commonwealth'. Huh - cool to know, thanks. That actually gives context to the whole FO3 reference of the commonwealth.

Oh ok I was thinking the Big Empty but that was people just reading MT as the two the two letters and deciding that it sounds like empty. But I do see what you are saying

 

[Filiecs]

Fallout: San Francisco

I think it would work, the map would cover the bay area and places like Google, Apple, Nasa, and other big companies around here would be nuked. We'd actually be one of the first places to be nuked because the command center for west coastal defense is located here too. Not to mention the Golden Gate Bridge.

 

[Sordak]

Fallout graz, that would be pretty boring to be honest.

yeah we dont have alot of things where that kind of stuff would be entertaining. Probably the Murinsel but its rather small... yeah we got some caves in our mountain.

Oh yeah, that's another good example. Forgot to mention it.

 

[Aprilgold]

Fallout: London

yay UK

Although was the UK ever bombed in the Fallout universe?

Also these would be interesting-

Fallout: Hong Kong
Fallout: Beijing
Fallout: Cairo
Fallout: Johannesburg
Fallout: Oslo
Fallout: Moscow

The whole WORLD got fucked up from what I remember, I just don't know how BADLY!

Quoting Fallout 2 "Entire continents fell under boiling seas"

But...Fallout: Ronto
Fallout: Commonwealth
Fallout: Detroit (there's a lot more to Michigan than people think...)
Fallout: Tokyo
Fallout: Milwaukee/Green (Glow) Bay
Fallout: Los Angeles (in current gen)

are all great ideas.

I'm still sticking behind Fallout Universe, to where it takes place within the WHOLE Milkey Way galaxy.

 

[Vkmies]

I know all other places are destroyed in the FO universe than the US, if I remember correctly, but if it's not like that: Fallout: Helsinki. OH COME ON! A bit tropical never hurt anyone...?

Sadly, I think this is a good point about the tone, humor, and established mythos of the series.

But purely from an imaginative point of view, I would love to see Fallout: Tokyo. Imagine the re- emergence of technology and conflicting ideology of New Vegas... with Japanese future technology. I think a faction of people who rebuilt a community of ninjas would be right at home in the series. Not that they would do it, I'm just considering the Rule of Cool potential.

 

[Da Orky Man]

Fallout: Glasgow. Turns out the nuclear holocaust actually improved the death rate.

 

[Tripple W]

They already made my location into a fallout game called New Vegas so thats my answer

We'd all love to see other cities but they wouldn't be Fallout Settings. They could make post apocalyptic settings but not Fallout!

 

[proctorninja2]

fallout boston, i dont think it would make a good full game but as a DLC it would be hilarious because of all the irish jokes and with all the historical monuments here it would work well i think *prays it gets made

 

[King Toasty]

Fallout: Doomsday Vancouver. Kinda catchy, isn't?
