Toronto or Montreal. You have the lake or the river and you get to play with winter in the wasteland.

You make out it's coming soon.. this game is easy 5 plus years away

Would have been nice to see if Canada had their own version of Vault Tech before they were annexed

Vaults were commissioned in 2054 while the process of Canada being took over by the US started in 2059, so there was a good 5 years without any issues to see if Canada as its own nation would try to copy Vault Tech but even then they weren't fully annexed until 2072 so anything could have happened in the background

It would be cool to see rivals for Vault Tech in the world especially from Canada, the UK and Europe.

Their own different kind of vaults, their own variation of the Vault Boy mascot, own style, different brand of food, different computer terminals and locks which mean completely different minigames, their own rival versions of Robco resulting in different robots etc. Least it keeps things fresh and there's a lore reason why things are different rather than just saying "yeah this region of the US has different hacking / lockpicking, just because"

Any university.

Just copy paste it.

OtterX10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

I think Japan would be a great departure from what we've had before, and makes sense with what happened in Hiroshima & Nagasaki. It would be interesting to explore an alternate history, imagining what Japanese technology had evolved into in a retro post-apocalyptic world vs what Japanese tech actually looks like today in the real world.

Yi-Long10d ago

Yeah, I'd love that, or any modern Asian city for that matter. Hong Kong could be amazing as well. Just let the disaster' hit in modern times or 10 years into the future, and then set the game 25-30 years orso from now ...

MrBaskerville10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

A bit early to get excited. Haven't even seen any gameplay of TES and we are talking Fallout 5. Which probably releases around 2032 or something.

But would like to see one a bit further into the future where they might have gotten further on rebuilding the world. Still a Wasteland, but citites are more populated and living areas are less filled with ancient junk and skeletons. They cleaned up and moved forth. But maybe Cities are isolated because of the dangers and lawlessness of the wasteland between the populated areas.

Kinda like taking Fallout 2 and go further into the future.

Choices similar to New Vegas but better, better physics, current graphics, and solid combat. It can be in any location if they include this.

If they start now, we can have it as early as in 2031!

redknight802d ago

Heck yeah, we can have a teaser trailer in 2031!? I am so excited already!!

Hedstrom2d ago

Yea, the teaser 2031 for the trailer 2035 is going to be awesome!

DOMination-2d ago

haha was about to say the same thing.

All these articles about a new Fallout are pointless right now. A game of that scope will likely be 1 year pre-production and 4 years development MINIMUM and that's if they start on it tomorrow. Lets talk about it again in four years time when it's officially announced, not when they're still working out who may develop the bloody thing.

Kaii2d ago

Yeah, allow the studio that hasn't slam dunked any games In recent memory to "fast track" the next Fallout game.

jeromeface2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Good, microsoft should look at their IP's with value and protect them from devs like bethesda after disasters like Starfield. Everyone would lose their minds if obsidian was able to make another fallout even though the new vegas team is long gone. .

Hereandthere2d ago

Lol, still port begging for hell divers 2.

I’m going to get back into Fallout 4 since I haven’t finished it yet. The recent update will likely give me more of an incentive to get to it sooner rather than later.

Crows902d ago

The recent update does nothing except take up more space...

raWfodog2d ago

New armor, weapons, and mission(s) is enough for me, especially since I haven’t finished the game yet.

mastershredder2d ago

Where is the problem part again?
There is a show
There is 76 that is perfect for non-standard fallout players and perfect for Bethesda to coin up on.
There is a Fallout Shelter
There is Fallout 4 updated for current gen (that went free for subscription services in most cases).

Also there is a whole new audience that has never seen or played fallout before. Seems like they have PLENTY to dig into, before they worry about FO5.

They are beyond trending and are banking with willing investors atm, and you are calling it a problem. Mkay. Sounds more like you are just chapped that FO5 is not point of discussion. No worries, it is coming, just gonna take a bit. Just be glad MS and Bethesda ironed out their multi-platform woes, THAT was a problem, the rest is cake.

danno_omen2d ago

I called it a good problem because they have so much momentum, or did you fail to read that part

anast2d ago

That momentum is going to die when the new players realize their games aren't very well made compared to other games.

The answer is no there won't. 2030s

Fallout 5: Which Studio Could Make It?

With work on Starfield wrapping up and work on Elder Scrolls 6 starting is there a chance another studio could work on Fallout 5?

I would've thought they're too busy with Avowed and Outer Worlds 2

CUnit1231231d 16h ago

You never know what can happen. I'm sure they are working hard tho

Jared25003d ago

Not anymore. Most of the New Vegas devs are long gone

RaidenBlack4d ago

I'd rather have a Fallout 1st person (Starfield engine based) spin-off from another studio like Obsidian/Roundhouse/Arkane a la New Vegas style and Fallout 5 from Todd & co.
Also won't mind another isometric Fallout RPG spin-off on top of that as well ... from inXile or Obsidian

-Foxtrot4d ago

Either a New Vegas spiritual sequel with a new location (personally I’d use the spin off games to move around the world to Canada, UK, Europe etc to see their own versions of Vault Tech and the like).

Or

A remake of Fallout 1 in the same style as 3, 4 etc

RaidenBlack4d ago

Howard is more against Remakes ... he can be forced to handover the IP rights for a spin-off but he'll rebel if remakes are discussed. lol
Plus ... fallout 1 and 2 humor is pretty dark ... doubt MS will be able to keep 'em in remakes.

porkChop4d ago

I'd love an FPS spin-off from Obsidian and isometric spin-off from inXile. That would give us a steadier stream of Fallout while Bethesda can take their time with TES VI and Fallout 5.

CantThinkOfAUsername3d ago

And then people wonder why companies keep making sequels instead of taking risks on new IPs...

porkChop3d ago

1) Not every game can be a new IP. Some IP are just begging for sequels and spin-offs because the lore and world building are so good.

2) Both Obsidian and inXile have multiple teams, so this wouldn't stop either from also putting out new IP.

TheColbertinator4d ago

For sure Obsidian. Bethesda should go mobile at the rate of their quality drop. Inxile should make one too afterwards.

anast4d ago

I wouldn't let Bethesda touch it, unless you want an game that was dev'd by AI.

neutralgamer19924d ago

Until we wait please remaster FO3/NV with all the dlc. Gameplay improvements, faster loading, better textures and performance. Make a physical version with both games on the disk and it’s a buy for millions

Because we have years of wait before we get FO5

BrockEmSockEm4d ago

Yeah, but they can't even do the FO4 next gen update correctly.
