It Wandered In From the Wastes
Needless to say this sucks, although it's probably better in the long run to save the dissappointment that would have been caused. Still I don't understand why they'd want to put another fantasy based game in an already oversaturated market.
I mean sure there are a decent amount of modern/futuristic MMOs out there but nothing like Fallout. If it was done right it could be amazing, for example if they based the mechanics of the game on the original Star Wars Galaxies, where there weren't "classes" but different skills you specialized in. This of course would fit in perfectly with the SPECIAL system. So you could have a completely player driven economy where players would specialize in being merchants and creating the weapons, armor and ammo that are used in the game; "diplomatic" characters that talked there way out of things and could manage cities and relations between "tribes", etc.
While I'm not even really into MMOs or have the computer that could play this, it would be a breath of fresh air compared to these WoW clones that are nothing but fetch quests to get your character to xyz level and then just PvP the rest of the time.
