Fallout 4

Re: Fallout 4

Seeing as I am from Boston I would love to see that be the city. As others have said would love to see the Fens and the Garden. Also there is the Bunker Hill Monument. Which looks like the Washington Monument. You could travel around to Revolutionary War battlefields IE Lexington and Concord. Explore the worst project in the history of mankind AKA the Big Dig. Just google it and you will probably agree. Hell even make the trek to Foxborough and go to Gillette. City Hall is pretty recognizable and has already been a video game, one of the Tony Hawk games.

You may be disappointed if you're hoping to see those things. You have to remember something about Fallout. It's set in an alternate reality. It's the future as seen through the lens of the 1950's. So that means that Foxborough, the Garden, etc. may have never been built. The Boston that's in the game (and yes, I definitely think that's the setting) will likely be much different than the way it actually panned out (the city planning, buildings, etc.) in real life. Anything built before 1950 (like MIT I believe) will be there. But anything after, maybe, maybe not.

I think MIT will be a major part of the story. If you don't already know that's the center of what is known as The Institute, a place where androids are made/produced and studied. It should be interesting. We'll know a lot more after June 14!

OK so if that's the case, then Fenway and the Monster should be there both were built in 1912. It is easily one of the most recognizable places in Boston. That would be like having Fallout 2 without the White House. It should be in the game even if it is run down or half demolished.

And also the only thing I listed that would not fit the 1950 requirement was the Garden, technically. But they could still put in the old which was built in the 1920's.

That's correct, and it would be awesome to see Fenway in the game. But I'm not holding my breathe on that one. Bethesda can take many liberties with the way the city looks, what's in it, etc. in the Fallout world because they can just say, "well, that was destroyed," if what we'd like to see isn't in the game.

The White House was not in Fallout 3 and the game was set in Washington. There was a large area that was in essence a big crater where you could tell there used to be a sizable structure but it was reduced to rubble. Many Fallout fans made the assumption that was where the White House was and used it as the reason it was not in the game. Same could be said about Fenway. In the Fallout alternate universe it could have been destroyed completely, or for all we know (in their world) the Red Sox could have moved to another city, the park could be destroyed, etc. In a nutshell I'm just saying that Bethesda is never tied to recreating anything in Fallout as it exists today.

Re: Fallout 4

Fallout 4 by Bethesda would be Skyrim with guns

That's what people said about Fallout 3... "it's Oblivion with guns." If that's anyone's impression all I can say is that I'm sorry they don't get to experience what I consider to be the single greatest single player experience that exists in gaming.

Re: Fallout 4

I say the conference will be of Doom 4, maybe a dishonored sequel.

I can also see them doing a GOTY Skyrim for Xbone and PS4. Say that Elder Scrolls online will be Free 2 play and close the show with a Fallout 4 announcement.

I hope we see something about a new Elder scrolls game since I am a much bigger fan of that series then Fallout.

Not a chance they say anything about TES VI.

Then color me excited!

I thought you'd pop into this thread at some point.

Fallout 3 isn't even the third best game in the series.

Re: Fallout 4

I wonder if the release of the division would effect the release of fallout 4. I also wouldn't expect the game to come out this year. In this day and age, you would think if we are 910 months from release, it would be announced at this point. Especially a franchise like fallout. Who knows, regardless of when it comes out, I am in.

Fixed that for you. Because you had 910 months and that would about 75 years from now.

Re: Fallout 4

Pretty sure he meant 9-10 months, 910 days is still almost 3 years.

Can't imagine the game would be any later than next year though, if it's pushed to 2017 that is a long time not to see another elder scrolls (2018 at the earliest, and that is next hardware announcement time).

Yea probably, I posted that shortly after waking up and use a calculator to find out how long it was.

Re: Fallout 4

Wonder if its somehow going to make it out this year. That would be a nice surprise but I'm expecting Fall 2016.

If it did it would sell like gang busters... This console gen has been very slim compared to the same amount of time last gen.... By now I owned heaps of games averaging a purchase per month at least now I only have a few games and it looks like only 3 disk releases for the rest of 2015 (1 so far this year)

Love fallout so I wouldn't have to think too much about this one
