Future Fallout games

Postby Tigeria » Thu Nov 29, 2012 5:38 am

Just talk about future places fallout could take place.

For me, I'd like to find out what happened to Canada after American Annexation.

Or the American survivors in China.

Really just somewhere different than what we know the United States to be, it doesn't even have to be American controlled.
The planet Trae is an ancient land with a sordid history of globalization, war, kings, and gods. We currently boast 8 Billion in total population with a fair government under checks and balances and a separation of powers.

I don't think this belongs in NSG.

I'd like to see a Fallout game taking place in Europe, preferably the UK or Paris. Or at least somewhere outside America.

Ah, but the entire point of Fallout is that it captures that 50's America. It just wouldn't work anywhere else.

Well, if the franchise keeps growing, the devs will eventually have to try new stuff. Assuming Europe has suffered the same fate with the US, I don't see why they shouldn't try it.

It's been discussed many times, but it's unlikely. The 50's was such a defining period for the US, but it was far much less so for the European countries, if not the downright opposite.

But if theoretically, the devs were to set a game in Europe (I promise you it won't happen), then I think Paris would be the best bet.

Well, you could totally have a game set on a US colony/expedition to Europe.
"We're here to free you from the communists!"
"MERDE!"
etc.

It'd allow you to have multiple factions, a common staple of the game, and let you mix-match the two (50's america, communist france, etc.) for some interesting stylistic choices.

One word. Canada. There's a good bit of fluff regarding it, it'd be a damn shame not to at least try.

It's be interesting to see New York and Toronto.

Also, an expansion pack that would have an expedition to perhaps the USSR, China, or Europe. The USSR did not fall in the Fallout timeline (though it may or may not be totally ruined in the present from nuclear warfare).

I would like to see the fallout series expand into Europe and China although I understand that would be incredibly unlikely due to the stronger American market. Europe is explained in the series as have merged into a single entity and I doubt a private vault company would have much success in Europe with the expected increase in regulation and oversight, instead I think the Government would take control of the vault system. It would be interesting to see how the survivors interact with the environment.

I remember the game saying that China was hit pretty hard during the nuclear strike, although it does not go into detail about how much of China was covered with nuclear strikes. I imagine some of the mountainous areas of China would be fairly protected from both the nuclear strikes and the following radiation. USSR? Africa? South America. I don't remember reading anything on what happened to these places.

An interesting concept I did hear though was a game set during the Europe-Middle Eastern resource war.

I do imagine Europe as having restored some system of governance like the New California Republic mostly due to the fact that they would have their own sane vault companies.

Yes, that would've revolved around a bunch of British soldiers trying to get back to Britain.

Personally I would love to see a Fallout game set in Britain, theres a rich Cold War history in this country and would make an interesting contrast to the US.

The RPG Hot War gives a good idea of what it could be like.

Europe hasn't been hit by China's nuclear arsenal (Or so I've heard), so UK, Spain and France are probably gonna compete for colonialism in the Americas again. If that's the case, I would like the game to be set in Massachusetts.

Really? I thought they had been hit.

In fact, I'm pretty sure I heard that Holland was completely underwater as a result.

Also, I'm interested to know what one of the devs meant when he said "the Mojave was pretty fun, wasn't it?" in an interview.

Shit, New Vegas was great, but there's no way they could make another game there. Perhaps he was referring to Arizona or Utah.

Errr, I haven't heard anything like that. We don't know if Europe survived.

However, I remember there was one ghoul who supposedly spoke with a British accent in Fallout 3. There's also Tenpenny, so it's quite possible the U.K survived somewhat. In that, at least they can traverse the ocean.

That Ghoul probably was in the US before the bombs dropped.

Tenpenny being in Fallout 3 was suppose to hint just bad the UK fared.

Oh, now that you mention it; Moriarty was Irish, and either his father or his grandparents came over on a boat.

I don't really doubt that Europe is still around in the fallout universe, but I think it's implied that no continent was spared some kind of nuclear exchange. Except maybe Africa, but even then, earthquakes around the earth, nuclear winter and sudden cutoff from wealthy nations probably created conditions that might as well have been caused by a direct hit.

I think there's a hint as to the fate of Britain there in the fact he was a ghoul :p
