Three Dog Teases Fallout 4

[Lt._nefarious]

Good evenin' Escapist this is Nine-Dividied-By-3 Dogg! Ahwoo! Now, y'all out there keep on the look out for the boys from vault 69, known as "Bethesda". Now word is they're makin' a new Fallout game and 9-Divivded-By-3 Dogg just loved the original, so if you see this fella's walkin' he wastes give 'em some help and tell 'em I said they were cool.

OT: Fuck. Yes. I'd love a new Fallout game. Aw, Fallout 3 was the bomb, only game I ever bought all DLC for...

 

[Baron von Blitztank]

I actually liked Three-Dog. He has a much better personality and taste in music than Mr New Vegas.
Hopefully we'll get a nice hybrid of Fallout 3 and New Vegas for this one. The writing, variety and multitude of dicking around activities as New Vegas but all the style, spectacle and scenery as Fallout 3.

 

[Dead Seerius]

Looks like Three Dog is heading to Boston then? Unless it's just the same voice actor. Either way, if Bethesda is allowing him to speak up then I'm getting excited that we'll be seeing a more full-fledged announcement in the near future.

Perhaps even *gasp* a TRAILER??

Well a guy can dream.

 

[Jeff Gennick]

...

Three Dog's coming back?

...

FUCK YES!

 

[Berithil]

[HEADING=2]Oh, YES! PLEASE!PLEASE!PLEASE!PLS!PLOX![/HEADING]

Three Dog was so much better than Mr. New Vegas and I loved FO3. Due to the Lone Wanderer boosting the signal, the next game could conceivably be set anywhere in the eastern US.

Now I'm excited, even if we're probably a long way off...

800 hours of play and *still counting* with Fallout 3. Non-modded on the Xbox no less. It would take quite some time to properly articulate exactly how or why that game has such a grip on me.

About 200 hours of play on New Vegas (a significant portion spent on a couple of DLCs I loved). I got my money's worth, but have no desire to ever play it again.

To each their own.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

If it is as good as New Vegas, I will buy it. New Vegas sold me on the series although I'm going to wait for a good sale before picking up 3.

*backs into a corner

D:

I....I-I thought I killed you >_>

 

[Gilhelmi]

I killed him because I could not stand his voice anymore.

Not like Bethesda ports player choice over anyway.

I hope the next Fallout game is an MMO.

I would like to hunt you down for what you just said.

I still think that his radio station has been boosted to all over America then just DC, why? Of course it's because of the Lone Wonderer, I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't do all the work and already in command of the Brotherhood of steel.

Still... I look forward for Fallout 4 because I is going to look like Skyrim (For the graphics) but a little better.
Also because of (hopefully) all the new stuff it will bring.

I do not think he would be in command of the Brotherhood. He did not seem the "Commander" type. Perhaps the Public Relations person. I think the Brotherhood would be able to recruit and increase their ranks because of his calls. With increase of manpower, they could spread out and form a new nation (like the NCR did). Perhaps even explore the... dang forgot the groups name, Commonwealth(?)... and see the new technological advances (or old, because of reinventing stuff) they did. They were not that far away from the Capital wastes anyway.

You want to know something? I've beaten the game several times and fully explored the capital wasteland however I've never once spoken to three dog.

Wait... what?

How do you do that? Don't you have to talk to him to advance the Main quest?

3 was better. Sure they did not have some of the game play that made NV good, like the faction standings and a slightly better barter system. But they lost ground on the storytelling, and your character just seemed not to have any back-story (just the base game, I do not know if Lonesome Road added or not).

3 felt like you were changing the political landscape of the Capital wastes, helping the Brotherhood establish their nation, Or helping no one but yourself.

In NV, all the towns looked and felt the same. But in 3, Each one had a different life to it. From Megaton, a town in a crater that was formed by an unexploded nuke (some people worshiped the bomb). To Underworld, a town in the US Natural History Museum made up of goules.

Go ahead and by GOTY edition of 3 now. The only thing you have to lose is the hours you will spend exploring everything.

No, you can totally skip him by going to the Jefferson Memorial before meeting him, that's what I did my first playthrough.
Or you could stumble onto the vault that he's at, I think that works.

I found out by accident you can bypass him and go straight to Rivot City instead. The downside to this is I missed out on a cool scripted scene.

Huh... I've never tried that. What quest does it skip to if you go right there?

Getting the Brotherhood to the radio tower, fixing his antenna, and I think there's another one in there that gets skipped somewhere, can't remember.

All I care about is that they are likely putting it in Boston, and will hopefully ignore the West Coast. Now all I have to do is wait for Obsidian to make the real Fallout 4.

 

[Kayevcee]

I'll be over the moon to have more Fallout. My only issue is I wish we could have one game set somewhere other than the US. Sure I love the diners and the propaganda-screaming Mr Gutsy and the ubiquitous Nuka Cola vending machines, but it'd be nice to see how the other side fared after the bombs came down. An alternate China based on their projections from the 50s of a glorious socialist future. Fallout Taipei.

Hell, the whole world is supposedly devastated. Fallout Rio. Fallout Paris. Fallout Cumbernauld? They wouldn't even have to change much of the scenery.

[Grouchy Imp_v1legacy]

Maybe Fallout San Francisco?
"Thanks for listening, girly men."

Bethesda have already commented that they'll take the East Coast and let Black Isle/Obsidian handle the West Coast, plus San Francisco was already in Fallout 2. 4 is billed to be set in The Commonwealth mentioned in 3, supposedly built up around MIT.

OT: Three Dog was such an annoying gob-shite in 3, it'd be a shame for him to reappear in 4. He was the Fallout version of The Adoring Fan, singing the PCs praises over and over. The soundtrack to 3 was amazing but it was such a shame we had to put up with him mouthing off between every few tracks.

 

[putowtin]

Good to hear they skipped NV and went for what look like a Fallout 3 "sequel"

Fallout 3 was totally mind-blowingly amazing. NV was like the mutated half-creature of that binary.

Lookin' foward to it.

And I feel the exact opposite!

FO3 Bores me to tears
FO:NV is still a joy

(Good thing we all have the freedom to choose or we'd be fighting each other in The Thorn's pit!)
