What we know is in Fallout 3

Since Bethesda decided to make Fallout 3, we figured we might as well have a forum about it.

What we know is in Fallout 3

Post by Mr. Teatime »

I'm bored so thought I'd post this:

<b>DEFINATELY</b>:

It will use special
It is using the Gamebyro/Netbyro engine (same one that Oblivion uses)
Takes place after Fallout 2

<b>LIKELY</b>:

Will have comprehensive editing tools

feel free to add.

DEFINATELY
It will contain some incarnation of Harold. And I mean definately.
suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. suddenly somebody will say like 'plate' or 'shrimp' or 'plate of shrimp', out of the blue, no explanation.

Oh, and lens flares. It's just not a video game without lens flares.

Likely:

That "radiant AI".
NPCs will steal things from each other.
I wonder if you could even be pickpocketed.
Like the kids in the den, but it could be anybody.
yay.

Hopefully (if Bethesda truly appreciate and comprehend the values of Fallout cannon) :

Sluts in thongs*.

*Though this may just be a case of my imprinting of real world desires, I doubt it is. :drunk:

Yeah, huge, distracting and blinding lens flare. Just like in real life! Someone needs to send death threats to the designers of all future games to make sure they hold back on those kinds of effects.

No ham. Ham isn't kosher, and we wouldn't want to alienate a portion of the market. Instead, there'll be lots of lean corned beef and pastrami, with a vegetarian toggle.

NO HAM!? I just knew Bethesda would make a mess of things the moment i heard they'd be developing it...no ham indeed, honestly!...pfftt.

But on a side note, I'm looking forward to the vegetarian toggle. (assuming it's a vegetarian plastic toggle like the ones used to secure the neck-ties in boy-scouts)

I'll add another "likely" to the list: Ron Perlman. Since he still does game VO work, I'd guess Bethsoft will get him for Fallout 3.

I would like to make a hypothesis.The elder scrolls aren't linked to each other storyline-wise.So you don't have to play the previous to know what's going on the next.This might apply to fallout...

NO HAM!? Then I am not going to buy it...
Portion of the market?!? What are you talking about? That is less then 1% of world population...
There are no 'knowns'. There are thing we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know. So when we do the best we can and we pull all this information together, and we then say well that's basically what we see as the situation, that is really only the known knowns and the known unknowns. And each year, we discover a few more of those unknown unknowns.

And blur.
And bullet time.
And the EA-like music boxes in the corner of the screen.

Oooh me me me me! MY TURN!
Big flashy 'KA-POW!', 'WHAP!', and 'ZAPP!' signs appearing everytime you hit someone- they've got to be true to canon somewhere I figure...

Likely:

Take place in United States.
You would be able to gather a party of followers, like in FO1/2.
