E3 Starts a Week From Today

E3 starts a week from today and while I anticipate good things, how will we all feel if Fallout 4 is not announced at the annual convention this year? Well I don't know about ya'll but I will be so angry that I will:

I'm 100% serious on that one. I will be so fucking pissed.

Also, little update for you. If I can get more followers on this blog, I will hire a web designer to customize this thing. So do me a favor: stop commenting as Anonymous and follow this blog! I don't bite! Well... not all the time :3

Took a break and now I'm back! (Fallout 4 Rumors Cont) UPDATED

I did not know until yesterday that this blog has become a little more popular, especially among fans of the Fallout Franchise. I am ecstatic to see that my blog is finally taking off, even if it is in relation to just one post. I figured that it would be the most popular to begin with. One thing is bothering me though: if you are going to comment on a post, do me a favor and join the site! I want to get to know everyone!

Anyways, I know that many of you are excited about learning the location of Fallout 4 at E3 in June. We are less than a month out from the biggest video game conference in the U.S. and the rumors are running wild. I have kept my ear to the ground for any rumblings/rumors about F4's location. I thought for a bit there that Bethesda would be announcing it via their Twitter feed but unfortunately I was probed wrong when Bethesda announced "Dishonored" instead. While this was disappointing, I understand why they are being tight-lipped about F4.

Now I did see in the comments on FALLOUT 4 RUMORS! that one of our Anonymous friends claims to have a reliable source who claims that the new Fallout will take place in New York. While this is an interesting idea, I am going to take this with a big ass grain of salt.

It would be very interesting to have the next Fallout be in NYC. For those of you who don't know, I was born on Long Island, so the idea of seeing NYC as a hulking slag heap is a little odd. On the other hand I have to take into consideration the logic of another Anonymous friend:

This is a GREAT observation! The Big Apple is already showing signs of problems due to global warming. It is at a much higher risk of flooding due to its location than other U.S. cities. But if you look back to my first couple of posts about the last FNV DLC you will notice that Bethesda made a huge blunder in logic. For more info please see An Introduction: I just ruined Fallout New Vegas for myself and The adventures of Super Spaz! (I was right and now it's bothering me even more.). So I honestly would not be surprised if they repeat this blunder and make F4 in NYC.

Some of you also mentioned the possibility of the Midwest:

I forget, have any of the previous games ever mentioned Chicago, Detroit, or Cleveland? Chicago was mentioned in F3 by Scribe Jameson and Rothchild and it does make an appearance in Fallout Tactics but not actually in the game. There have been hints of an Enclave outpost there, so there is always the possibility of a similar scenario with a game in Chicago like there was in New Vegas. For example, two major factions fighting it out (again) with smaller factions present, but I feel that this same scenario is unlikely. Maybe they will bring back the Vault Dweller from F3 but the Courier was practically a revolutionary step in characters for the Fallout Franchise.

There have also been rumblings that the Fallout MMORPG would have taken place in Detroit. And of course there have been similar ideas about it. The motor city would have been in its prime if things had continued going the way they were in 1950 by the start of the Great War. There would be a lot of exploration of burned out car factories and more things would blow up there than in FNV. All of the burned out cars in FNV really put a kink in my style considering that I love to blow them up when fighting an enemy.  Anyway, the Fallout Wiki does show that some other boys and girls are talking about the possibility of Detroit.

There has not been much talk about the possibility of Cleveland though. If Pittsburgh was "the Pitt" (literally) in F3 then there is the distinct possibility that its proximity to Cleveland might also produce a highly irradiated hole in the ground. I really think that Cleveland is unlikely but I may be wrong! I have been before!

What's truly amazing is that they stayed true to the Pittsburgh skyline in this DLC. Love it! But this bridge should be yellow just like all of the other bridges in Pittsburgh. This is the South Tenth Street Bridge and it's yellow not green. Have to say that the dead bodies at the top were a nice touch. Also they were highly accurate with the layout of Haven except for the part where Pitt's campus is not DOWNTOWN. It's in Oakland which is up the Boulevard of the Allies. And yes that really IS the Cathedral of Learning. 

How Bethesda sees it.

How I see it.

Anyways, I love being able to see all of your interesting ideas! But tell me what areas would be featured in future DLCs if any of the aforementioned cities are picked for Fallout 4?
