Fallout New Orleans has been trademarked on the European Intellectual Property Office, which could suggest that Bethesda and more specifically Obsidian could be working on a follow-up to the widely successful Fallout 4.
Have to agree...it would be pretty flooded if it's set there. I could see it as DLC but not a full game
However there's no info on what happened to the place so they could make anything up.
Kind of makes sense with New Vegas being the last one, seems they want to continue with the "New" bit so maybe their third Fallout game will be "New York".
Still wish they would do it so the spin off games are set in other places around the world. I wouldn't want a main game to be set outside the US since the theme and tones are part of the franchises charms but the spin off could have visited other places.
They said Europe and the like were hit harder because before the war you had the resources war in Europe.
However people are still living over there but it's just been hit worse. I think this would provide great survival elements to the game and would provide us with new landscapes, mutated monsters and the like. You could even see rival companies to NukaCola and Roboco, there would also be new terminals and locks (different manufacturers) which would redesign the unlocking minigames we have,
No thanks if they put the same effort into NO as they did with 4. Recycled stuff, little to no gameplay or overall improvements, ect. FO4 did not feel like it should have been released anywhere close to 2015.
The creative team known as Bethesda were the minds behind the snorefest FO4. Obsidian was behind New Vegas and the article states that it may be them behind this new title.
Obsidian is great. Probably be the same engine, but they will throw in new features for sure. Maybe they will get settlements right. I loved that part.
Bethesda should hire an outside writing team for their games. It would make all the difference in the world, and Obsidian games have had really good stories.
Obsidian are good but let's not forget their games are known for game baking bugs and glitches. I guess Bethesda's reputation is not that much better
I want obsidian to do a new Vegas style fallout game but please sign a contract only if you will be given enough time to develop. New Vegas was rushed. Bethesda was to give obsidian a bonus if overall ha,e was 85/100 and it ended up being 84/100
Why can't fallout games use the ID engine
Imagine a fallout game that looks as good as rage did when it came out
Fallout 4 was all hype to be honest. Even most of the released dlc is just meh so far
understand this thought new Vegas story writer is now working at guerrila games on horizon
So much of that can be attributed to time/money constraints, New Vegas was made in a 12 month window. They simply didn't have time to realise their vision and the game suffered massively due to it, whether it was bugs or cut content.
Give Obsidian some time to do a proper Fallout game, they'll do a bang up job, and hopefully return the series to greatness.
Really enjoyed alpha protocol too but it also suffered from crazy bugs. I'm glad people are starting to really hold bethesda accountable. Maybe not in sales but the overall feeling towards them as a company.
Being that the game was announced in April 2009 and released October 2010, your timing is off. Who knows how long they were working on it before it was announced. Also, they didn't need to build the game from scratch since much of it was reused from FO3.
It's gamers like you who are the problem. You refuse to speak with wallets and publishers/developers take advantage of that. You mean to tell embethesda games don't launch with gamthe breaking bugs and glitches? You mean to tell me obsidian's games don't come with a lot of glitches?
It's not hate when someone is asking for better quality of games. And don't give me the crap about open world games since other open world games have launched to master piece status
Bethesda refuse to upgrade their engine like activision refuses to upgrade their COD engine
You are a regular on this site so if I see you complaining about any other developer or publisher I will repost your comment. Gamers like you complain about other developers but when it comes to your favorite developers you give them a free pass
Was skyrim not totally broken at launch What about bugs and glitches in fallout Or the ones in fallout new Vegas that make the game completely unplayable
@show- please give it a rest, I buy things that I like and I did speak with my wallet.
I like fallout so I purchased it... so?
Fallout 4 did launch with a couple issues so did The Witcher 3.
both games had issues, both games got huge sales , both games got lots of awards, I don't care, give it a rest. if you think that's such a huge issue merely don't buy those games at launch, I actually don't mind. I still like The Witcher 3 and I got a corrupt save based on issues that were later patched.
You know of a game that launched the perfect with zero issues? They're still patching Team Fortress 2 last year Rockstar patch Red Dead Redemption multiplayer that had a glitch Rockstar is still actively patching Grand Theft Auto 5 I'm sorry but games are Dynamic there's always issues that can be fixed later on you know not of a perfect game.
You're saying Gamers like me complain about other developers in what respect? About glitches? Lol yes I complained that The Witcher 3 had a glitch that basically corrupted my entire game and I had to start over again but the reality is, I still own the Witcher 3 , I still like The Witcher 3, I'll still buy their next game day 1. it's not enough to Simply make me not a consumer of theirs because it only happened once, and it's not as if it's the first time it's ever happened to me in a game.
You're saying they refuse to upgrade their engine? Well it is their engine and it is there a game you also have a choice to not buy it what exactly is the problem?
Sorry but this is not a dictatorship you do not own that company if they want to produce their games in that way that's completely up to them if you don't want to buy it as a consumer merely don't.
I'm sorry but when did this company take away your free will and said you had to buy their game?
I have the free will to buy whatever I want in the same respect you have your free will to buy whatever you want.
You seriously need to come to terms with that...
And if you're going to say I give developers a "free pass" do not generalize it or say something vague actually find when I've stated something about a developer specifically about a certain feature that also happen to me and another game where I suddenly gave them a "free pass".
Also zero open world games ever launched to this "masterpiece status" that you're trying to say simply because you don't even have an example it's just merely some vague generalization like "games", can you name one or you scared of what's going to be rebuttaled?
Buy what you like, stop trying to convince consumers how they should be spending their damn money!
I've disagreed with a hell of a lot of people on this site you could see by my comments you could even see by my disagrees , but I've never once told a fellow gamer how they should or shouldn't spend their damn money! Stay out of people's wallets buddy this is not a dictatorship!
I think that's going to be very difficult to actually prove if you consider both teams are not creating a Fallout game from the ground up and releasing it in the same period and time.
you have to understand that every sequel within a generation is always going to be fundamentally better than the one that comes out first. They're not having to create or craft a completely new tool set. Obsidian's Fallout is going to come out faster and they're going to have more time to just focus on the game as opposed to creating the tool sets and models and textures and a bunch of other things.
It's actually why second Gran Turismo that releases within a generation always releases faster and with more content than the one that releases first because they're not making all the engine and tool set and other things over again.
I really like New Vegas as it's one of my favorite Fallout games but I cannot say which team is better simply because we're not really talking about the exact situation, I'm pretty positive if we had obsidian make an engine in a tool set from the ground up we may not get the exact experience that we might have thought considering lots of their time would then be spent on technical aspects as opposed to entertainment aspects.
You would think that each franchise would get better than the last but Fallout 4 doesn't even hold weight against Fallout 3.
You also got to remember Obsidian had 18 months to make Fallout NV while Bethesda had 5+ years to create Fallout 4 and what did we get? A FPS Shooter with a mix of Minecraft.
Sure crating and crafting the technical part of the game is time consuming but you're telling me 5+ years isn't enough with decent RPG mechanics?
I'd be wary about this, these IP hoaxes ALWAYS originate in Europe because the EPO is nowhere near as rigorous with digital property as its US counterparts (USPTO). Just wait before getting to amped about this one.
In any case, Fallout 4 has left me disheartened. After Fallout: New Vegas being a (technically flawed) masterpiece RPG, to call Fallout 4 a disappointment is an understatement -- despite the fact it is, at face value, a very solid post-apocalypse FPS -- just a terrible Fallout game. I sincerely hope the next entry in the series is not made by them, or is at least a collab with Obsidian/Ex-Black Isle team.
Why is New Orleans such a premier destination for video games? It's uninhabitable and a dump. They get flooded, rebuild on federal taxes, get flooded, rebuild in federal taxes. Like there is any other outcome living that far below sea level... I wonder why people aren't trashing Obama for this flood like they did bush during Katrina, the infamous "bush hates black people" retardation.
It's never their own spin though, it's just new Orleans. Croc swamps, voodoo, titty beads and floods. I'm asking why all of these games chose this location? What makes it such a game hotspot?
Guess NO appeals to some people. Millions of people live there,they must like it for some reason. Maybe you would like a videogame version of it instead of the real thing.
Some of us may not remember that the sea level dropped globally, after the war. Also, killer flora. Lots, and lots of parasitic, hyper-intelligent plant life taken over the gulf commonwealth. I wouldn't be surprised of the urban landscapes are held together by vines and trees.
I know I'll get jokes about where l want to see the next Fallout, but that is okay. I myself want to see Fallout: Detroit. I think it would be interesting to see a Detroit that never became like it is in real life.
Seeing the Fallout universe's version of the motor companies would be fun to see. Getting to visit the salt mines could also be very interesting. Plus seeing as in the Fallout universe Canada was brought into the US I could see you being able to visit Winsor. So it would be fun to see how the Canadians like being annexed into the US.
Nah the idea is nice and its development would benefit from the real life Detroit, nobody here has a good sense of imagination hence the (unfunny) jokes.
I can see a series finale taking place in Canada, but it's a complicated explanation...
hopefully obsidian delivers the fallout we deserved by bethesda ... and hopefully they dont completely ruin dlc content with crap settlement add ons that are price gauged to all hell ...
Definitely an Obsidian project. Me being from new orleans, this will be great. Can't wait to eat mirelurk gumbo and nuka hand grenades - anyone whose ever been to NOLA will understand ;)
Obsidian, please rescue the fuq-up that was Fallout 4. Please bring back RPG and not Minecraft to this series. Please. I'm tired of seeing giant penis buildings as the only kind of "stories" coming out of a Fallout game. My money is waiting. P.S. Can you please buy back the rights to Alpha Protocol? We need a contemporary rpg, since we have none.
Man I was hoping for a Fallout Detroit damnit!!! It make so much sense going there, because it's pretty much have wasteland written all over it now. Looks at Flint Michigan and Detroit's abandon Auto factory! Come on I can go to Detroit record footage from Detroit edited with the Fallout soundtrack on the background, with my commentary on why Detroit should be the next Fallout maybe Fallout 5 if this rumor is true.
All you do is swim
That would be awesome
Hope it more like new Vegas then fallout 4
No thanks if they put the same effort into NO as they did with 4. Recycled stuff, little to no gameplay or overall improvements, ect. FO4 did not feel like it should have been released anywhere close to 2015.
Let's all pray that obsidian are behind this.New Vegas is the goat.
