If you plan on using a PS3, expect longer than 3 months.

lol surely, you mean never

[Red Blaster]

And Obsidian is handling development


right

right

[MightyHedgehog]

Damn, that's too bad. Here's hoping we get an awesome Wasteland 3 by Obsidian then.

Bethsoft Fallout is too real-time action-y to be up Obsidian's alley, anyway, IMO. Wasteland's more deliberate and tactical nature suits their more dense narratives much better. Besides, I'd like to see Avellone's work with WL2 continue and include other Obsidian stars for WL3.

[balladofwindfishes]

I'd like to see Boston try to be some kind of neo-Colonial America with extreme patriots trying to cling onto America as they knew it from the history books.

Sort of mix the Legion with the Enclave, but doing it in a way that's a lot different.

[diamount]

I want a ghoul companion with an accent like this:

[Protome]

Hopefully Bethesda lets someone who knows even the slightest thing about the first two games make this, like Obsidian.
3 was such an abomination :/

[Ridley327]

THIS. My life NEEDS a new fallout. Skyrim engine please! perhaps, but the setting wasn't nearly as good IMO

Isn't the Skyrim engine just the Fallout engine with nicer looking menus?

[televator]

Legit or not, I'm just glad the next Fallout is from Bethesda. I like their style better than Obsidian's.

[TheMan]

boston sounds stupid but i liked fallout 3 and NV so i'll probably end up buying it regardless

[Santiako]

It's been 200 years since the nuclear war, the world should be way more developed (like in Fallout 2), New Vegas was a step in the right direction to go back to that.
Hope they go further this time.

[Razek]

THIS. My life NEEDS a new fallout. Skyrim engine please! perhaps, but the setting wasn't nearly as good IMO

Cannot disagree more with the first statement. Please just use a new modern engine. Please!

I completely agree with your second statement.

[IdreamofHIME]

So, how do you like them apples?

[Semblance]

Bawwwwwstun sucks. Goddammit, Beth.

[diamount]

Considering the commonwealth are in Massachusetts..

[The Grim Heaper]

ughhhh boston

I'll still buy it because Fallout's great, but ughhhh

[a secret-boss]

it better use iD Tech 5 or no buy

[Riposte]

I'm hoping they learned something from Obsidian. New Vegas was so much more interesting than anything they put out by Bethesda and it also had the benefit of being actually linked to the Fallout story/setting.

[balladofwindfishes]

So, how do you like them apples?

the apples you find perfectly fresh in places that haven't seen human activity in 200 years?

Because those always bothered me in Fallout NV

[Derrick01]

If it's on the current generation consoles and engine they use they won't be able to. They had to butcher the strip in New Vegas to get it to run on consoles and it was only recently unlocked for PC users.

[legacyzero]

Didn't they say Tech 5 wasn't built for open world environments??

[LowerLevel]

WOOT! Please be true!

[Ridley327]

it better use iD Tech 5 or no buy

I believe that Carmack has been quite adamant that iD Tech 5 is unsuitable for games with the scale of Elder Scrolls and Fallout. You'll get the "Creation Engine" again.

[TheMan]

do you guys think this game will be on current gen or next gen systems?

[Blue Ninja]

do you guys think this game will be on current gen or next gen systems?

I'm guessing next gen. Oblivion was supposed to be a launch title for the previous gen, so Fallout 4 might try and succeed where it failed.

[diamount]

do you guys think this game will be on current gen or next gen systems?

Next gen early 2014 probably, just like how Oblivion was originally a launch title for 360 but pushed back into 2006.

[Rivyn]

After the abysmal crap that was Skyrim on consoles (bugs, huge framerate issues and over 5 patches after November) they have to really step up their game if they want me to buy this one.

I do enjoy this news because I absolutely love the Fallout games.

[legacyzero]

I believe that Carmack has been quite adamant that iD Tech 5 is unsuitable for games with the scale of Elder Scrolls and Fallout. You'll get the "Creation Engine" again.

Which is why RAGE fell short of it's hype too, IMO

Next Gen Fallout?

I'd be ALL OVER that shit.

[FStop7]

Would like to have seen it set in Europe or Asia.

[LiK]

Ugh I hate Boston. Then again seeing it in a post apocalypse setting could be fun!

why the hate? it's hardly in any games. fuck NYC

the Bostonian accent is so fucking cliche in movies and TV. i was raised in Boston and i don't have the accent nor any other people i know have it. calm down haters.

[legacyzero]

Would like to have seen it set in Europe or Asia.

Well, Stalker and Metro have us covered in Europe, but Asia...

That would have been awesome.

[diamount]

Would like to have seen it set in Europe or Asia.

I don't think that'll happen, Fallout is supposed to be about a world stuck in 1950s culture but with advanced tech. More specifically American 1950's culture.

[Kade]

I wanted to play a part in the annex of Canada. :(

[ciridesu]

...every fallout and bethesda thread are instantly spammed by a bunch of 'lol bethesda' obsidian circlejerk posts nowadays, jeez - both devs have their strong and weak points and are exceptional in their own regard

on topic: Boston? I find that a bit too safe, but I'm really eager to see what bethesda can do with next-gen hardware ( if this is next-gen ), as they sure as hell could use more power *zzz ps3 gamebryo games* this could be something exceptional

[legacyzero]

I agree with the Boston hate, thought. Could have done better.

Detroit? Chicago?

Hell, even a return to DC post FO3 would have been great.

[Rivyn]

why the hate? it's hardly in any games. fuck NYC

But a Fallout game based in NYC can be awesome and will not be anything like Crysis 2.

[Red Blaster]

Would like to have seen it set in Europe or Asia.

Fallout is pretty intrinsically linked to Americana

[Trick_GSF]

Well, storyline wise, it would make sense. The Commonwealth, etc. I think it is pretty much certain to take place around this area, regardless of the rumor.

Can't wait either way.

[diamount]

I agree with the Boston hate, thought. Could have done better. Detroit? Chicago? Hell, even a return to DC post FO3 would have been great.

You'll be getting Chicago in Watch Dogs and Deus Ex had Detroit for a hub.

[Rash]

Bleh. Tired of their crappy cities. Somewhere like the pacific northwest would be awesome. They could have mutant bigfoot.

My least favorite parts of Fallout 3 were in the city. I'm more of an "open fields and small towns" kind of guy.

[Trigger]

Isn't the Commonwealth in Boston? It was mentioned in Fallout 3 a couple of times. I'm down. Bethesda's Fallout lacked a strong story, but had a great exploration vibe that NV was missing.

I don't see any "lol Bethesda", I see more "please Obsidian".

[televator]

Seriously....Assuming the rumor is true, what is wrong with Boston? I don't understand. Did the city of Boston call everyone's mother a whore?

[Razek]

Same here. I hated having to take the trip to Rivet City. I seriously dreaded it every time. I spent 99% of that game out in the regular wasteland. Same thing with NV.

[Croc]

As long it this one is not a glitch-fest I will be happy.

lol

You're not going to be happy.

[LiK]

Seriously....Assuming the rumor is true, what is wrong with Boston? I don't understand. Did the city of Boston call everyone's mother a whore?

probably.

[Lazy vs Crazy]

Plot twist you are a robot and don't know it.

[Derrick01]

why the hate? it's hardly in any games. fuck NYC

Because I'm a New Yorker. I'm not asking for the game to be in NYC, I'm just asking for it not to be in that shit hole Boston.

[LiK]

why is it a shit hole? stop mixing the sports fans with the common folk.

[-PXG-]

Chicago would be cool. A resurgence of gangsters and speakeasies in a post apocalyptic settings would be kind of neat. NYC has been done again and again.

LA as an expansion? Think about it.

[diamount]

Plot twist you are a robot and don't know it.

Sounds like Bethesda's quality of writing. They just should outsource the writing to Obsidian.
