East and West Coast have been covered in 3 and New Vegas. Where should #4 sit? I kinda want it to be set in the north, maybe along the border between the States and annexed Canada. I wonder what sort of Canadian stereotypes would exist in the 2280s.

In the Rockies!! Skyrim does mountains beautifully, now let's see post apocalyptic mountains!!

In the state of Florida?

I'm hoping for either somewhere in the north, like Canada, the Commonwealth or Seattle, or the Southeast. It'll make for a nice change of scenery. It'll be somewhere in North America, I'm sure. And before you say "Oh, America's getting stale! It should be set in China/London/Paris/Tokyo/wherever!", go get a map of North America, and mark out all of the territories the previous Fallout games have covered. Even Tactics and Brotherhood of Steel. There's still huge swathes of America it hasn't touched upon that would make for unique and interesting settings.

It should be set in Barry Island!

Mutated Rad-sharks...ON LAND running like Komodo dragons.

I would like to see it in Australia just to hear the ghoul voice with an Australian accent and mutate everything that was trying to kill you into deadlier versions of everything trying to kill you.

Basically, set the game to very hard by default.

At the previous same post.

OT:In America,because the rest was and so will this be,and I like it they way it is right now.

oh I dont know, probably france for all we know.

I can hardly tell the difference between california or washington as they are still a bloody wasteland for goodness sake.

QFT,it's still will look the same,just different voice actors and traditions(like food and stuff like that).

Seattle sounds good to me. That's what was planned for the Fallout MMO, but that's not gonna happen now. I think it would have a different feel from the other games, while still being close enough that we could see some of the familiar factions.

A character named Dorothy gets blasted by the Experimental MIRV and ends up in the land of Oz.

"Those aren't Munchkins, they're just hideously mutated people."
The tin man will be a Brotherhood of Steel Paladin, calling for a powersource instead of oil, the cowardly lion will be a cowardly Deathclaw, and the scarecrow will be a supermutant ("If I only had a reproductive system")

I'd like to see it set in Arizona. Imagine, the Grand Canyon could be home to a huge group of Super Mutants and possibly some other horrible creatures.

That would be neat if it was a direct sequel to New Vegas. The Southern states have a lot in common, and it would be cool to see the continued expansion of the new societies.

Fallout: New Vegas was probably the most progressive of the Fallout games. It not only showed the survival of humanity after the Great War, but the propagation of society.

I would like a Direct sequel if only to see how much of a dick my main character was in New vegas. Its funny how you can go out of your way to set up things nicely in a Fallout only to find out that your character took the most dickish moves in the game later on.

Let's say Detroit.

Why not New York City? I think a post apocalyptic mega-city would be amazing to explore.

That's exactly what I'd want to see, either t hat or the Northern Commonwealth. But ONLY if it isn't made by Bethesda. While I loved Fallout 3 as a game, lore wise it was terrible. I can gloss over that as long as they stick to different territories.

Paris or Rome would be pretty awesome. The Capitol Wasteland was significantly better than the massively bleak Nevada dessert. Honestly, that was kind of stupid. And Vegas had a total of like 8 buildings. At least Washington was pretty huge, there was the metro, the museums, plenty of factories and warehouses.

i wouldn't mind seeing what the commonwealth (Massachusetts) looks like...i mean they got androids what other secrets could they be hiding

Chicago

I heard it has a rich history of music. Perfect for a Fallout game. Sounds like it would be a good setting.

I said it the first time posted this thread and I'll say it the next twenty. NEW YORK! Only because it would pretty cool having to navigate such a complex city in a post Great War city.

I have previously said that it should be set in Alaska, but if not there, I think it should be set in my home country: CANADA!

Thank you for contributing to my nightmares for the following weeks.

Let's say Detroit.

I thought fallout 3 was set in Detroit, you know as a prequel before the bombs fell.

New Orleans would be nice, all that smooth Jazz and the super mutant alligators. Lush green swamps It would make a nice change from grey cities and brown dusty wastelands.

Or maybe change continents entirely, and set it in Russia. Moscow maybe? To see how the other side fared? Or Maybe even Siberia, where the survivors would have fled to avoid the fallout. Imagine trekking between Soviet Era Gulags through endless pine forests, hunting two headed reindear and water mamoths while keeping an eye out for the Siberian Yeti.

Well, logically it would be set in say... Texas. This is mainly because each one references the squeal, and is somewhere that they have yet to be. Saying that I would like to see the UK, but we all know that wont happen.

That was The District of Columbia

If you look into the Lore, there are TONS of really good settings you can choose from. The Tennessee Valley was untouched in terms of when the bombs fell. Everything would be green and radiation free, more or less that is. You'd still have the dilapidated building and destroyed landmarks just from it being centuries without any kind of upkeep.

I think somewhere along the southern Mississippi would open up a lot of biological/ecological diversity. You could even set it a few centuries after Fallout 3 allowing vegetation to return, or perhaps vast stretches of mutated fungi. Overgrown mushrooms everywhere will feed the longing so many Bethesda fans have had to return to Morrowind.

All that I'm saying is that perhaps they should take a few years on this one and build something more striking than a desert/tundra.

Pacific Northwest has my bet, the expansion for 3 with the swampy area ruled out the South East and everglades for me (though a flooded New Orlens could be fun to explorer but Katrina is probably still to recent to get away with that though...)

The Last two games have however centered around very iconic towns DC, and Las Vegas, so maybe Seattle or New York. I'd say LA but the NCR has that area covered.

I'll go with Seattle for my final answer.

The rain-forest, populations has moved into the forest's to escape the nuke's.

I think this thread has been done already, though it's not out of the question that I'm mistaken. Being from the Boston area, I would love to see it set in Massachusetts, or as it's known in the Fallout universe, "The Commonwealth". I honestly just think it would be cool to see a post-apocalyptic Boston/Cambridge.

If was Detroit, how you be able to tell the difference? :P

They could call back to the commonwealth and those androids.

Since my personal desire for a China based fallout probably wont happen, let's go for the gulf. Maybe have something with the Cubans. Work in some marshland; it could be dried up or something.
