I think that the 3rd installment should take place in a different part of the world (e.g. New York or China possibly) an East coast game would be delightful. Imagine going to Atlantic City, New Jersy and looking down on Donald Trumps corpse after you bypassed his computers and broke into his building or going to Washington DC and busting out a M72 Rifle in the fledgling New Congress on a contract hit from Rush Limbaugh V

i like the west coast

i am from europe but i d prefer that fallout 3 you visit the same place of fallout 1 (like the huub and junktowen) and of fallout 2 (licke gecko, vault city...) perhaps i like if they insert ALSO the east coast BUT DON T REMOE THE OLD TOWNS!!!
 
RE: i like the west coast

All reverance due, I think that they have done as much as they can with California persay, I do not think that fo3 can not be on the Westcoast, I just believe if they are going to use a new engine they could place the game elsewhere as to not alienate new users attracted by the real-time engine with too many vague prequel comments I first played fo2 and i was utterly confused:(

What?

fo3 should be placed in china

They should show the perspective from the other side of the war, the story is dry in california.
Moving the game to china and having no relation to your first and second quest could revitalize the plot. I don't want it getting weaker as it did from fo1 to 2. I figure the only similarity should be the war.
Even if the game is still in the states it should be south, maybe uncover the important thing that was bombed really hard(nicole in fo1 mentions that i think)...

I'm pretty sure she was talking about The Glow there.

But ask yourself, what can BIS do someplace other that California? What kind of story could take place there that would be nothing like Fallout 1 or 2? Come to think of it....What kind of story can they do period? It'd have to be one with the one-man-saving-the-world, the nuclear wasteland devesation, and still be orginal enough so that people don't think they're just playing a rehash of FO1.
 
RE: fo3 should be placed in china

How about it take place in the 'radioactive dustbowl' Cassidy spoke of. Locales like the Missippi river ,St. Louis, and Chigago would be cool....
 
RE: fo3 should be placed in china

that is a good idea. maybe if cassidy was somehow involved as well, it'd even be better. like: you are somehow related to cassidy (lost son/ great nephew/etc.) and you have heard about him and some "stranger" he went away with, and are trying to find out more. along the way, a story unravels.

what about that?
 
RE: fo3 should be placed in china

I say the story should take place with you as the chosen one from Fallout 2 and you have to use a vetribird to go to ______.
 
NO!

No China! No Vertibird flying around the world! None of that crap! People listen to yourselves this is FALLOUT not Billy the Traveling super hero or adventures in china. You want to see stuff like that, make your own game, lets not ruin a great series!
 
California is cool

I don't agree. California stuff is still cool, China won't be interesting for american and european players (and I think they are the majority). Fx, can you remember the names of characters in San Francisco? I doubt not. And culture of China differs from European-American one too much.
But if California's too bad Europe would be way better than China IMHO.
 
RE: California is cool

EUROPE?????
that would totally not work. in neither of the games does it implicate europe, but in FO2 there are documents which implicate china, and in FO1 Maxsons diary gives me a theory about a conspiracy.
the former means it should be in China explaining the other side
the latter, it should be in the states and reveal more conspiracy.
 
The other side of the story?

But that would mean that their would be no parts like "OOOOHHH, thats what that was" or "Oh, hAHHAHA, i rememeber killing his brother in FO2" parts!
 
RE: California is cool

yeah, i dont think it should happen in a foriegn country (like china) because they would speak chinese and if their speech was written in english, then it would be pretty stupid seeing as they are not native to the language.

I put up the idea for China as an illustration, personally I am fond of my east coast suggestion.

So. Case in point Fallout2 was a complete replica of Fallout1 in look, feel and storyline. A new "engine" is being introduced in Fallout3 that merits a new storyline.

If the game took place IN China, which I wouldn’t want, consequently your character would be from China and speak the prevailing language. Secondly, it would take place in the 23rd century and in view of the fact that the Chinese script is out of date even by today’s standards, they might have been forced to assume English by that time.
In whatever case, the language/s of the NPCs and the main character are negligible and extraneous.

RE: How About Canada

europe is a bad idea, there was no mention in the game whether or not europe was nuked or not.
america is the best place for it.
california is a great place for it, because imagine revisiting places you have been & seeing how they have changed & how the residents have evolved. plus going to gecko (if they chose the "uneasy-alliance" ending) & talking with lenny about the chosen-one.
i think you should be a descendant of the chosen-one & having to try to step out of your ancestors shadow.
the game just needs to give you a life, that's all.
i say no to crappy real-time, keep the same formula, just build on it
