Yeah, the train idea was quite cool. And it'd be interesting to see some of the Vaults the President talked about. (But not Vault 69. This one should remain a Holy Grail
)
Suggestions for FO3

I don't believe I'm familiar with what's so special about Vault 69. Was it mentioned in Tactics? Because I've never gotten the chance to play that game.
Anyway, I think in F3 we should get the chance to visit the east coast. I've always wanted to see the future of Boston.

First time out of the vault
How about a part for area 51?
I like the train-idea, how about it brakes down somewhere near area 51 and the player ends up there in search for some spare parts???

I don't think the multiple possible beginnings thing would be too unreasonable.
You could have all beginnings be part of the same storyline. So if you chose the Arroyo one Vault City would still be in the middle of a revolution, but with the VC protagonist missing the revolution would fail or get beaten down in a bloody mess.
The multiple settings could all merge into the same story at a later point, just with diversions for the different characters at some points. The main plot could still apply for any of them although the game experience would be different because of the characters' different backgrounds.
An optimum would be also having different endings where the endings are not depending on the character you chose but the actual things you did.
It'd require LOTS of good storywriters and the design phase would be exhaustive, but the result would be incredible replayability.
Making it a believable Fallout game would be challenging tho because Fallout is based on the world-changing actions of a single anti-hero and thus any of the main characters would have to be able to have a lot of impact with his (her?) future actions, be it on purpose or not.

I'd like to see a manual like the original too. That manual was great. The best I’ve ever seen, even.
I pipboy logbook would also be in order. These can get really unorganized, so I think they should divide it up into different sections: "Important stuff" "Unimportant stuff" and "Rumors". I hated when in Arcanum, you always had those stupid rumors added to your logbook. It cluttered everything to hell.
A better map would also be a decent addition. Click on the location and your character would run there automatically. Maybe even a comment system so you can mark on the map who lives where or whatever.

It's been done a million times already. That, and its pretty cheesy.
I don't like the idea of including hints of life in outer space stuff, it doesn't seem right in fallout to me. And before thinking of adding creatures from outer space, why not instead figure more earthly creatures to include, maybe even some mutated ones...
Special random encounter even.

Ahhh yes, it's all coming back to me now. I suggested many things back on 03 when Van Buren was still kickin'.
Video & Audio Holodisks
As opposed to the basic text version of the holodisks, I think it would be a pretty decent addition to add in a fuzzy, scratchy audio. For the more important holodisks, video could be added. It would be like somebody had a video phone and recorded themselves with it pointed toward their face. It would also be black and white, of course, and a bit fuzzy and generally degraded looking. (much like the introduction in FO 1 & 2 were)

I forgot to add that I like your suggestion on the train breaking down. It could make for a very interesting quest. I just think the area 51 bit would be tres corny. Maybe it could breat down next to a ghost town, and your character must figure out why the town no longer has people in it. It could even tie in with the main plot somehow.
There would also HAVE to be a train hoist quest in the game too. That’s a given.
Don't double post, edit your posts instead.
i Would like :
A multiplayer setup where you are able to play in lan or something like that with your friends and have multiable story finishes and startings , also that you and your friends would be able to finish the game in Cooparation style.
the train idea would be fun..
and maybe see alittle of the east coast and some old towns still standing in ruins like "Newyork or chicago(or how it is spelled)"
maybe be able to join sides , like be a raider or some anti mutant organizations or something like that.
and that you will be able to creat your own stuff but you`ll need to learn it. maybe modify your own gun , armour ect...
it would be fun if the game had lots of different options to.
that your character could be a fat guy and such some charactirstic weiws. new weapons and armours , and less bullets for your guns so the game is more depentet on survival without guns.
also that you need to feed character would be cool , the stress to find food and such.
some new monsters and leagues , Mafia organizations , some Anti Brotherhood of steel groups or new BoS typish groups..
Jetpacks could be cool :p a few trap options , like trap doors with explosives , digg down mines and such .
more dialoug options.
half-mutants .
Ghoul towns
Mutant towns ^^
or some other group of humanoids.
Cannibals
groups that try to raid sometowns and such.

Forget about the FOT mulitplayer crap about the supermutant race anyone who's cells hadn't been corrupted by radiation or FEV would be a normal, everyone else would be a mutation. The only half mutants would be a mutie cut in half by your plasma rifle.
Not forgetting supermutants are sterile.

Uhm, by means of insane genetic manipulation ?
Are mad doctors 50's theme or not?
hehehe , well , multiplayer would be fun . it would be great to play with a friend or have a playable Npc or something like that, FoT was not even fun .. just feelt like a normal console game only thing that was cool was making a character.
well , half-mutant wont work then i must Agree on that
