@"ProximalBoar82" Texas could be cool! Where about were you thinking though? Dallas, Austin, El Paso?

Texas definitely needs to happen(since it is technically on both sides of the US).

Canada could also work since, according to Fallout universe, is part of the US when they annexed it(Winter Wasteland ).

I always wondered what happened to Alaska and there was that Chinese invasion so a spin-off at that location could also work.

hmm... kinda sad we never might not get the west coast Fallout from other developers like FNV. I mean, sure bethesda & obsidian had an agreement over this but, bethesda & zenimax has full power on fallout IP so, west coast may not be the same as it was we used to be. its sad.
well, there is a lot of east coast they can make hopefully..

New Orleans Louisiana
Texas by a major military base or between a few
NY NY
West Virginia
Alaska and parts of Canada

"Ronto" (Toronto?) Was briefly mentioned as an important place, and I suppose it's time we see what's up with Canada. What happened to the occupying forces and the resistance after the bombs fell?

Somewhere possibly in the western part of the US like Washington or somewhere near Alaska would be cool.

I used to want New York (and partly I still do), but I wish it was like D.C. in that there’s an open wasteland with many varied areas, from Oasis to open plains to urban ruins. I just don’t want something like New Vegas or 4 in that it’s all just desert or urban ruins. Gets bland fast.

Now I don’t care as much of where they go (as long as it’s in the traditional US setting) as much as what they do with it.

That’s what kills me about Fallout 76, that it looks like it will have such varied areas and great map with no NPCs or quests to give it depth. It’s basically just a big online playground with nukes.

I think a fallout game in Alaska would be pretty cool. It would give us a perspective of what life was like on the front lines and we'd have the opportunity to see what it was like for the civilians who found their homes a war zone. Imagine walking through the remains of a battlefield seeing the devastation still there after 200 years. It could open up a lot of opportunities for new mechanics based around the cold weather in Alaska: new enemies like frozen ghouls, blizzards which make it impossible to see and hypothermia which makes dressing warmly essential.

what about one in Chicago there is a enclave outpost in Chicago which was mentioned in new Vegas so it might be interesting to see what's going on over there or Texas with a wild western setting

@BagelVolcano Well, since Austin is basically my hometown, it'd be interesting to see Fallout 5 take place there. Although El Paso would fit the western vibe perfectly. It'd be nice to see the whole state of Texas in Fallout 5 if it's possible.

One of my first thought is Seattle or San Francisco, I just think seeing how the landmarks would look in the wasteland, and the games haven't really explored that area to my knowledge. But after hearing the New York idea, I think that would be really cool! I would definitely go for the metro option rather than the skyscrapers since I think that doesn't make too much sense and the mechanic of climbing them would get old pretty quickly.

So far I've seen people suggesting locations for

New York
Alaska
D.C.
California
Alabama
New Orleans
Toronto

So if I had to choose one that is not on that list I guess it would be Florida. Half the cities could be under water with towns built between towers. And giant FEV mutated sharks.

Even thought I would love to check again California, Texas or even NY for all the reasons you already stated guys, I would definitely kill for Florida or Louisiana… and since Fallout Miami is a thing, I guess I’m totally into the next instalment having raiders with mardi-gras beads or dressed something among the lines

Moreover, I LOVED Point Lookout, so I think that Louisiana’s radioactive wetlands and monsters would be awesome.

And outside USA, I would love Mexico and know what happened with China after the war. After playing as a war veteran in FO4 and meeting Zao I think it would be really interested to check on the other side of the coin as well and have a main character with a totally different mindset and culture. I would say Russia as well, but I can live with Metro atm and I think other places need more recognition.

What if in the next Fallout were able to travel to different regions in different states, kind of like how The Witcher 3 plays? That'd be pretty neat! We could travel and explore multiple maps and experience different stories and our actions in one place can affect the rest of the areas. I don't know how we'd be able to travel to the different places in game...vertibird? Walking?

@BagelVolcano Well,there are still working cars in the Fallout universe. According to the wiki,the Chosen One drove a working Highwayman car in Fallout 2,so driving could be an option.

Oh yeah you're right, I totally forgot about that.

well i definitley hope that if there is driving in F76 or FO5, They dont make it hugely dependent. on getting around. I'd prefer to just walk, instead of having to drive, stop, drive stop, it'd take away a TON from the exploration, unless ur trying to explore every little thing

I'd like to see somewhere that features the Mexican border. You could go from say Laredo Texas, Yuma Arizona, or somewhere between San Diego California and Tijuana Mexico. I always really liked in Red Dead Redemption when you went to Mexico midway into the game. It was such a neat moment. It'd be kind of neat to see that, but a wasteland. It might be a neat idea to have a reversal of what is happening now, where the section of Mexico you go to is the shining jewel in the sea of despair. It's a hard journey to make it there, and really tests you, similar to how the Vegas strip was the trying journey.

Radigators sounds intense. I've been to NOLA and there's so much potential in a very small area to use. They wouldn't have many issues with scale but rather having so much to include in such a small area. The possibilities are endless there. Some people posited NYC being an option, but as a person who lives here, we're obviously getting nuked first and getting nuked hard. Seattle could be an interesting location, as well as Chicago, even more so since it's in the heartland and may have avoided getting hit as hard.

@BagelVolcano Traveling to different regions or states would definitely be really neat in the next Fallout game.
