They have no problem pissing off fans. Fallout 3 wasnt made for fallout fans. And fallout 4 wasnt made for fans of new vegas or even fallout 3.
No, they keep the superficial things like Dogmeat, bottlecaps, muh BoS being everywhere, Nuka-Cola (lol Nuka sounds like nuke), muh 1950's vibe, muh Liberty Prime (Better dead than Red), Vault boy is inappropriately cheery, muh orcs Super Mutants, etc. to keep their large barely literate fanbase and their goldfish critics happy. Todd Howard is credited as "the Legendary Creator of the Elder Scrolls and Fallout series". Admittedly, people were taken back by FO4 but there are many willing to side with Zenimax (corporation) than John Carmack (the pioneer of the FPS genre).
 
Wishlist for fallout 5:

I hope it will never be made. Why would anybody want another installment from a company full of dimwitted, mouth breathing con artists? At this point things become clearly masochistic. It won't get any better.
 
Overall a much better, more engaging and darker plotline. A game's atmosphere is an important thing to get right. I like politics etc. so more of that would be nice and maybe from a global perspective and not always so US-centered

As to the game mechanics, I liked NV and running around in caves and corridors throwing sticks of dynamite, mines, etc. at huge monsters and blasting them with shotguns etc. Some would prefer a more laid back turn based - type approach. Someone mentioned a better engine, that would be a good thing.
 
Well, seeing the success of Witcher 3, and the fxxked up of FO4/No man sky/ME:A, I wonder if Bethesda would at least learn a lesson.

At least Ubisofe does.

In short, a featureless open-world is not fun at all. Player spend time on a game for enjoyment, not chores.
 
I am referring to their decision to delay the roll our of the next Assassin Creed game.

Goooood gooooooood, take our minor good show as a sign that we are now a good company and give us all of your moneys! -Ubisoft

I think Bethesda should break some barriers and take notes from loverslab.

Either that or skip the pretense of it being an RPG and get rid of the damagesponges and focus on being a decent shooter at least.

Already making shy steps with companions and that chick from Goodneighbor.

Actually, no jokes, that would be an improvement. The present half-assed SPECIAL is not even necessary, I have raided Gunners' HQ as a LVL1 with pure FPS skills and resource management. What was that improvement from Fallout 3, again?
 
The game is an improvement on 3 in almost every way. Characters, companions, animation, combat... Etc etc. Its new vegas that its undeniably a lesser to.
Well, that's cute, I appreciate it, really do, but the point was different. There's nothing stopping you from travelling to south eastern end of the map and be victorious since equipment still scales with character's level. Bullet sponges are still present and that just boring. (and doesn't mean shit for those who prefer explosives and melee)
 
Fallout 5 should not be set in the United States (I'd like the European Commonwealth) and should abandon all iconic things the franchise has indtroduced thus far except for ghouls, the Great War, certain energy weapons (not ballistics), Mr. Handys and some other robots and certain irradiated animals like Yao Guais that have nothing to do with FEV (Yao Guais are ghoulified bears for those that don't know. Point Lookout confirmed this with Ruzka).

No Super Mutants, Deathclaws, Vault-Tec, NCR, BoS, Vault Suits (maybe as an easter egg outfit, but that's it) FEV, Vault Boy, Pip-Boys or Vaults.

Introduce the "Reformed Chinese Empire" who have abandoned their Communist ideals and now have an Emperor. They'll be a major faction/antagonist who are trying to take over the continent.

Name it "Fallout: [sub-title]" without number.

A fresh start, bring the clock back a century or two and PUT IN SOME DARN RPG ELEMENTS (!!!)

Also take out V.A.T.S. and introduce a new system which allows to play fights in isometric, turn based fashion. Seamless transition from FPS to Isometric Combat. That would be cool.
 
Fallout 5 will be made by the fans, not by Bethesda.

Corporate Fallout is dead, long live fan-made Fallout.
