Maybe find parts to use to improve your cars speed, fuel usage, fuel capacity etc. They pretty much made that game already. edit: or of course there's American Truck Simulator, which should be a hit.

I'd really like a game set in Detroit, in the Fallout universe it should still have been an industrial powerhouse when the bombs fell. Detroit has a lot of really great art deco architecture that could be worth using. They could deal with the Occupation from urban areas on both sides of the border as well as giving some hints about what's going on in Chicago and Toronto. It'd also be a good excuse to introduce a functioning car mechanic. Of course, all we'd hear for months after the announcement is "lol Detroit is already like Fallout", which would get old real quick.

Just imagine that while everywhere else, things have gone tits up, Detroit is A-OK, every building has electricity, clean water, etc. It'd be a pure utopia But Enclave/Canadian barbarians from the north/Enclanadians want to ruin it because Ron Perlman says so.

For any of the UK goons, I'm a loving moron and used my old address for the Pip Boy Edition from GAME, trying to get them to change it but it's going to take a few days. For anybody else that ordered it did they send you anything physically in the mail?

Martha and the Vandellas? Now that would be a soundtrack. It'll probably never happen unfortunately, since Detroit would be a great setting for a Fallout game. You've got the RenCen right on the river, the Masonic Temple, the Packard Plant, the Detroit Institute of Arts, Greenfield Village out in Dearborn, the old Tank Arsenal in Warren, multiple airports, and of course the River Rouge plant. Not to mention Windsor just across the river.

I was making a Detroit rock city joke, but you'd probably have a lot of nerds coming up and saying "ITS NOT WITH THE 50s ASCETIC" if you add in soul. But if they do go back or make a new canon for Fallout Chicago, it's soundtrack needs to be Rhythm and Blues almost exclusively. Crabtree fucked around with this message at 21:14 on Aug 24, 2015 |

And if you want another type of music, there's always Techno, which more or less started in Detroit (although that would be really weird in Fallout). So Fallout: Motor City. City gets nuked, people take a few days off then rebuild it betterer than ever. Lots of cars, cars are nearly mandatory to get around, freeways are fixed enough to use. Fight for the tribes of Ford, Chrysler and General Motors.

Acebuckeye13 posted:Lookit this guy who doesn't know about Motown. The Temptations? Marvin Gaye? Martha and the Vandellas? Now that would be a soundtrack. Battle music is Nowhere to Run. The stadium/casino area downtown could fulfill a hub area like the Strip quite nicely. The Tank Arsenal is particularly great because it borders 696, which means its a perfect locale for another Liberty Prime-style final march. While the People Mover is functionally useless IRL, the tracks could be awfully handy for getting around the downtown area, like the elevated highways should have been in 3. Cobo Hall/Arena could lend itself to a really cool dungeon as well. Been wanting Fallout: Motor City for a while yet. Hopefully Coney Dogs will be a top tier healing item.

It would be interesting to see a modern FO with vehicles, although Gamebryo v.3 will never, ever be capable of that (just look at how bad dragon riding was, and that was largely pre-scripted). I mean, Rage is a driver / shooter, and the driving in that suuuuuucked. Even Borderland's driving areas were boring as poo poo, and felt like padding between the shooting. I suppose that the new Mad Max game has driving as a central mechanic, so it'll be cool to see how they tackle it. The fact that you're in a post-oil world would make fusion powered vehicles extremely valuable.

But I too bought it there so at least we'll be in the same boat. IIRC GMG released their keys early for GTA V so that people could preload via Steam. Maybe Fallout 4 will be a big enough title for them to do so again. I sure hope so because if not i've got literal days to wait before I'd be able to play the game after release.

The Mad Max game will likely give any modder the template they need to put in basics down, no fun wacky wasteland weapons, racing, or car on car combat, but the basics of cars down. With any hope, Bethesda could get green with envy enough at its success to try and design the next fallout with cars in mind from the start, but I doubt they'll try or completely prefect cars in one go without adding in their particular crafting system despite how much Todd was correct in that "it just works". If you want a taste of motor city, there's a game for you coming September 1st.

No cars. Not ever. All cars ever do is make the game world feel tiny. Take GTAV for example. The map is a decent size, and it feels even bigger when you're running around, but when you start to drive it, it feels significantly smaller. Couple this with the clunky games that are Fallout, and it's a recipe for disaster, and by disaster, I mean a bunch of dorks arguing in a Fallout thread on some website somewhere.

Well now we have to put cars into fallout just to hear dorks like Jack whine about an already shrunken New England "feeling" too small. And if this is anything like horses in Skyrim, the mode of transportation is going to be stronger than the person riding it so I can't wait for the car to kill a supermutant behemoth by ramping up and through its skull.

I think you mean "geniuses like Jack", but a mistake like that from someone like you is no surprise. You're right, though, games should always strive to only be as big as a game from a decade ago.
