Purkake Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Better not give it to any East-European developers then The logistics would be kind of problematic as well, you can't just make a few square kilometer map and stick all of Europe's bigger cities on it...
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Better not give it to any East-European developers then The logistics would be kind of problematic as well, you can't just make a few square kilometer map and stick all of Europe's bigger cities on it... Then pick a major city. I vote for London. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"
WorstUsernameEver Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 I honestly can't see Fallout working in a european setting, it's too much tied with the idealized american 50s, the red scare and all of that. Even if you do a retrofuturistic game set in London, it would still feel too different, or at least, it would for me.
Morgoth Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 London/UK would lend itself well to a PA setting. An Action RPG a'la Doomsday meets 28 days later would be kinda cool. Rain makes everything better.

Gizmo Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Imagine a Fallout (V1) game purposely (and humorously) designed as the "other side" of the war, not set in America (still based on 50's idealism ~just not the US's). Could it have worked? Maybe with the right folks making it. I think it could have been neat, and would likely have it installed now had it been made.
WorstUsernameEver Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 There was red scare in Europe as well. As well as retro looking visions of the future. True, but that wasn't really my point, my point is that Fallout is tied to the United States. Keep it out from the USA and it's not the same game, like it or not.

Tigranes Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Actually, a postapocalyptic Africa would have been amazing IMO - that's something I'd love to see done with a OTS/FPP, 3D fallout. There will be extremely remote areas where the small population and their environment was never really in touch with technology, and were not so affected by the apocalypse, either; more 'urban' areas that do know about it but were not targeted by bombs and become the new metropolis; devastated areas; disruption to wildlife and nature; some refugees from the West that made it to Africa or were stuck when the bombs hit; etc. Let's Play: Icewind Dale Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Icewind Dale II Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Divinity II (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG1 (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG2 (In Progress)

Walsingham Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Yeah, sadly I can't see Africa being that different. What about Paris? In terms of the people things happening in the '50s that would rule. On the other hand, the UK/London would have far more creepy infrastructure. All the different architectures, and there would be the equivalent to the Enclave, and god knows what that would be like. I'm thinking the Armitage strips from 2000AD. Quatermass and the Pit... Sherlock Holmes... Could work. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete.

Purkake Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 Your fantasy Fallout 3 looks kind of crappy. The Redneck Rampage mod looks way better.
Gizmo Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) Your fantasy Fallout 3 looks kind of crappy. The Redneck Rampage mod looks way better. Of course it looks crappy ; whadya expect from an hours [unpaid] work. It was just a concept proof. (using Dawn of War screen captures) Imagine a Witcher style TPP game, done post apoc, with NPC dialogs like Fallout 1 had, but in this kind of facial quality. When FO3 enters a menu/dialog, everything else stops cold... and they have only one NPC on-screen ~ this could have been a single animated head (of the GPU taxing type), and really impressed the fans. Fallout 3 (IMO) should have been Fallout 2 made fully DX9 3d-rotatable ISO, in the style of Witcher and NWN, and improved every single thing about it... the heads, the animations, the depth of story, and interactivity. ~Everything that made FO2 fun, but improved. Not everything that made Oblivion fun, but improved. [ btw, the face is a youtube link] Edited July 8, 2010 by Gizmo
Purkake Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 The talking heads thing in FO1/2 was a necessity of the time, I don't think it would fly these days. Just adding decent facial animation with some body movement thrown in should be good enough.
HoonDing Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 The talking heads thing in FO1/2 was a necessity of the time, I don't think it would fly these days. Just adding decent facial animation with some boob movement thrown in should be good enough. fixed The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Purkake Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 So you would like a more Japanese take on the series?
HoonDing Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 I was thinking more about Bloodlines, but... why not. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
