Bethesda filed for a Fallout 4 trademark

I hope they revamp the chat system and combat. Please don't be Skyrim 2.0.
Bethesda filed for a Fallout 4 trademark

Hopefully just scary rumours that get passed around the office. You know right there with the stuff like "dude, I heard we're getting shipped out and selected to help zenimax for the fallout MMO project >:O"Originally Posted by ashley678
Sony has lockdown on content for this from what I've heard. I have a few friends who work for Bethesda. I Dont know if it's 100% legit but I thought it was worth saying
Doom...5?Originally Posted by EatChildren
Cycle, yeah. By the end of 2014 Bethesda Game Studios will have not produced a complete mainline title in three years. Those Skyrim expansion packs chew up staff, but not an entire development studio company for three years.
Delays happen, but if Fallout 4 isn't at least projected for that period it will be an unusually long down period for the studio.
Also fits a ZeniMax schedule.
Q1 2014 - The Elder Scrolls Online
Q2 2014 - Wolfenstein: New Order
Q3 2014 - The Evil Within
Q4 2014 - Fallout 4
Q1/Q2 2015 - Dishonored 2
Q3 2015 - Doom "Endlessly delayed" 5
Q4 2015 - Prey "What is this even?" 2
Pick 1 or 2 to be delayed into 2016/cancelled.
So? Why do people want more Fallout?Originally Posted by Derrick01
By the time this comes out it will have been 4 years since NV.
The fact it's from Bethesda is the only thing that depresses me.
So...soon...?Originally Posted by Lin Siniang
Why the fuck do people want another Fallout RPG so soon after NV? I want a new IP from Bethesda. Another post apocalyptic RPG with 40's jazz which I have experienced four times now. I really wanted Bethesda to do a modern setting RPG.
I need to finish the damn thing. I always start over and get bogged down with the sheer amount of shit you can do in the gameSeriously! New Vegas was such great game, one of the better games of last gen. I'll need to restart the game once again.
Ofcourse I dont like exclusive content for a certain platform. Microsoft and Sony both do it and I hate it.Originally Posted by GreatestHits

It'd be a new place but with very similar themes. There isnt much you can do to make a post apocalyptic setting of a post nuclear America refreshing. All Fallout games share this commonality and we have seen it four times now. More if you include Tactics which I havent played. Let it go. It is now boring.
It's my favorite series of last gen, and the one I am most looking forward to. it will have been almost six years since Bethesda made a Fallout game.Originally Posted by Lin Siniang

Well if this was from Obsidian I'd tell you it's because the writing, story, quest design and RPG elements would all be amazing and we get hardly any big budget open world RPGs anymore so it would be worth it. With great writing and design you can make just about anything fresh.Originally Posted by Lin Siniang

Probably mine as well, certainly top 3.Originally Posted by SerRodrik
Main reason I'm excited about this is the potential for an Obsidian follow up. New Vegas is probably my game of the generation.
I think I will buy the ultimate edition and play through it for 4th time, since there are no next gen RPGs and Fable and South Park were delayed.Seriously! New Vegas was such great game, one of the better games of last gen. I'll need to restart the game once again.
This happens to me all the time. I'm pretty sure I almost have 500 hours logged on Steam for New Vegas, and I've only actually beat the game twice. I always get too sidetracked.Originally Posted by Kuro Madoushi

To you. The amount of instant hype in this thread should clue you into the fact that you are in the minority on this one.Originally Posted by Lin Siniang

We know pretty much nothing. The only thing I recall being mentioned was that someone from Bethesda spoke about the 'mojave being a fun place to visit', which hopefully means we won't get another series of dilapidated subway tunnels.Have Bethesda talked about where they want to see the Fallout series go?
From my experience, Bethesda has usually been more focused on the former. But we will have to wait and see how they've taken feedback from what people loved/hated about 3 and NV.I don't think a larger world is as important as constructing a more complex world with more option for the player to do as they want
Skyrim was two step forwards, one step backwards. Bigger world yet with less meaningful quests and other pointless shit just made it redundant.Originally Posted by MasterBalls
I don't mind if it doesn't look super-shiny and "next-gen", I just want the world to be absolutely HUGE. Seriously, even New Vegas wasn't really big enough. HUGE world. I want to go exploring and get lost for hours. Skyrim was a step in the right direction.
I think Besthesda will do something new between Fallout and ES. Be it another reboot of an old franchise or a new IP.Originally Posted by EatChildren

I wouldn't count on it. Their response from all of the reaction and success surrounding Oblivion was to make the next ES game even dumber and less focused and balanced.Originally Posted by Metroidvania

I do hope that they keep hardcore mode, or at least offer some cool new 'simulation' aspects. Blazing through chugging stimpacks is fun for a rambo playthrough, but does get boring after a bit.
