Just a quick update, we're still working on this and have thought up an amazing amount of ideas. We recruited some fantastic voice actors as well
In the meantime while we're still writing up the story and characters
@mithrap has been busy with the numerous gameplay adjustments
Valve is allowing us to use the sound assets from Half Life 2 in regards to our altering of "raiders" into more stalker-themed scavengers. Here's the mail of approval from Gabe.

Deployable robot concept:
In summary, most of our ideas boil down to:
-Complete rewrite of Fallout 4's main story
-Boston is now treated as a giant settlement full of NPCs
-Multiple race selection (Human, Ghoul, Super Mutant, Robot)
-Highly fleshed out dialogue system with much more than 4 generic options as well as consequences with regards to what you say to every npc or your reputation
-More brutal combat, longer ranges, deadlier for both you and enemies
-Pacifist or Retard playthroughs possible
-Grey morality, rewritten factions, and new factions
-New story and atmosphere drawing heavily from media such as Bladerunner, Deus Ex, Lovecraft, STALKER and Judge Dredd
