Poll: Fallout:England-Would it Work?

[willofbob]

No, because there is no vaults in England.

there may well be. it is never stated that Vault-tech is not a multinational corporation. frankly, I'd be surprised if there wasn't an English vault.

as a side note, Allistair Tenpenny was declared to have been born in England, coming to America to seek his fortune.

Fallout: England would be a great oppurtunity to expand on the canon, America being the main focus of fallout so far.

(personally, I want to see a society of ghouls living in the chunnel)

I find Fallout to be a very American series... yes you could spin a title set in England but I doubt it would have the same charm, it would be too different IMO.

I think if we never get a Fallout game outside of America we won't be missing much.

I'm an Aussie, and (as you can tell by my avatar at time of posting) Fallout is one of my favourite series.

I do believe it would work but what about Mexico or Canada. I would love to kill yeti like deathclaws in Canada,Also Mexico would have a new name for deathclaws, Chupacabra!

 

[BlumiereBleck]

i think if they could recreat like all of england ingame it would be great. or atleast all of england scaled down a little.

Fallout doesnt automatically mean american. it means a game world after the world went to shit after a nuke tastic war happened. so im sure that england or surrounding europe got nuked a few times and would make a good setting for a game.

Instead of deserts you have cold rainy weather with snow falling in game if you play long enough. instead of dehydration in hardcore mode you have to change your socks to dry ones or your feet rott away

In Fallout 3 it is mentioned that the entire world was hit by a never ending heat wave.

 

[Flying-Emu]

No, because there is no vaults in England.

This.

Additionally, there would be no supermutants, since the factory or whatever was in California.

Well, Metro 2033 worked in the metro tunnels of Moscow, maybe, with a careful thought and planning, it could work.

 

[The Night Shade]

How about Fallout Transylvania? you know exploring Castles,a lot of vampire references,references to movies made in Transylvania,Etc

 

[emeraldrafael]

Doubtful. The problem with Enlgand is its an Island. And its not very large. Fall out games like a lot of space and well... not openess, but it helps. and Britain, just dont real have that.

 

[Ramare]

I think so if it drew from English history and popular culture like Fallout did for America. Also, add in the humor of a game like Killing Floor and I can definitely see it working!

Or Monty Python.

Which Fallout does already.

Doesn't mean they can't do it again. :3

Or much more often. But not too much, as to avoid becoming obnoxious, or offensive.

 

[CrazyMedic]

One thing I think would be cool is to shrink england down or set it on the south of england and have you the chunnel become a passage to some like hold area in france kinda like new vegas.

 

[Madcat75]

Wouldnt take much to make England into a wasteland its nearly there now.

CYMRU AM BYTH!!! WALES FOREVER!!!
FE GODWN NI ETO!!! WE SHALL RISE AGAIN !!!

 

[inFAMOUSCowZ]

I dont see why not, but some of the fun of Fallout, is the furture-istic 1040s feel to it. But I'd give the game a try if they made the new one in London.

 

[Flying Dagger]

Seeing as I don't care about lore, I'd love to see that place which is near where I live but on a game and such.

As long as it's a decent game... (hellgate london I'm looking at you)

 

[carpathic]

I think its a wonderful idea to have a fallout game set somewhere besides the US. See how the rest of the world is faring and all that.

I've always been intersted in that same question.

Especially China and Russia.

I suspect China is mostly ghoulified..but wouldn't it be horrible if it was only the US that was nuked and no one else?

There was like a cordon keeping people out of the US.

just sayin'

 

[v3n0mat3]

I have trouble seeing how it wouldn't work, personally.

 

[northeast rower]

I think that part of the reason that the Fallout formula works so well for America is because back then America had a really... "potent" culture. I'm not really sure that Britain had the same sort of iconic way of life.

Would it work? Yes.

Would it be Fallout? No.

 

[chunkeymonke]

I was having a good think the other day. I live in Manchester, England, and I was in the Trafford Centre, a huge shopping centre. I was walking through the multi-storey car park, with the pillars and gloom, and I was thinking 'God, this would make a brilliant location for a Fallout game.
I know there are still a huge amount of places in the US that they could make a Fallout game, but, disregarding any canon for now, do you think it would work?

you cant say disregard canon when making a game
it wouldn't be fallout just a generic post apocolyptic shooter
so no i don't think it would work

 

[Kortney]

Of course.


.....Why wouldn't it?

 

[kouriichi]

Its already sinking into the ocean as is. I doubt after it was blown to hell and back it would still be above sea level.

I only have limited A-Level Physics and Mechanics knowledge - you probably know more about this sort of thing than I do. But I'm not 100% convinced that a few nuclear explosions would have anywhere near the force required to sink such a large landmass, let alone move it at all...

Well, it wouldent be the bombs itself ((mostly)).
The reason its sinking is because of climate change. And after the bombs drop, the climate change rate would explode through the roof. All pun intended ofcourse.
Then, depending on where the bombs were dropped, the raising water to do the rest, IE, flood all areas that were blown below sealevel. As anyone can tell you, its not the bomb you have to worry about, its the......

 

[cystemic]

maybe it could be in soviet russia, lol. but fallout is all american really, maybe if they called it something different or if they just called it fallout: london and made a brand new game i'd play it

 

[Lem0nade Inlay]

Yes, but then again if you started using the underground I'd start feeling like I was playing Metro.

Then again, the more old-fashioned, slightly run down areas of East London would be really cool.
