  • Fallout 3?!

    This is the Black Isle forums on Interplay's website:



    It seems that it is an open secret, that Black Isle's next project (code named 'Van Buren') WILL be Fallout 3!



    So far what I've gotten is that FO3 will have turn based AND real time combat, and you can pick. Everything else is not settled, I guess.

    Hopefully this actually turns out to be another trip in the wasteland .

    It seems like they are still just in the conjecture stage to me.

    ACK!
    Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

      check that out all
      When the stars threw down their spears,
      and water'd heaven with their tears,
      Did he smile his work to see?
      Did he who made the lamb make thee?

        Just because Van Burean has been talked about doesn't mean it will happen...at least not for a while. Look at Jefferson.

          Um... it is VERY unlikely that Van Buren will suffer the same fate as Jefferson, especially considering Jefferson was a D&D game, and Interplay LOST the D&D license to Atari/Infogrames (which is why Neverwinter Nights had to be sold to Atari in order for it to get published).

            That's not what happened at all. Bioware left first and for a while they didn't have a publisher. Furthermore, Interplay published a D&D game AFTER NWN was released.

                Which is better fallout 1 or 2, i just realised they're both at the bottom of that big pile of games that ive never played
                Learn to overcome the crass demands of flesh and bone, for they warp the matrix through which we perceive the world. Extend your awareness outward, beyond the self of body, to embrace the self of group and the self of humanity. The goals of the group and the greater race are transcendant, and to embrace them is to acheive enlightenment.

                  Depends. If you like a lot of pop culture references from 1998, then Fallout 2 is your bet. If you don't, then go for Fallout.

                    I assume you are refering to Icewind Dale II? That was a special (basically one-shot) deal.

                    Jefferson was rumored to either be IWD 3 or BG 3. After the Forgotten Realms licence was taken away from them (and they refused to license it for another D&D title), naturally it was going to die.

                    I see no reason why Fallout 3/ Van Buren will suffer the same fate. It isn't based on D&D at all.

                      Jefferson is still on the backburner, meaning it hasn't been cancelled. Heck, much of the talk surrounding it was made last summer, after NWN was released.

                      NWN was Interplay property for many years. If they wanted to, they could have done something to get it published.

                        Ah...you beat me to the news..i've been meaning to post something for a few days now...but too damn lazy to do it

                        ...However, i'm not too lazy to dance to this news.


                        I've get all of my fallout news from these two sites btw...

                        No Mutants Allowed is a gaming site dedicated to post nuclear role playing series - Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout 3, Fallout 4, Fallout: New Vegas and Fallout Tactics. Largest news database on the Internet. Your Fallout Bible.


                        In the news items you'll find links to some FO3 relevant forum posts.
                        <Kassiopeia> you don't keep the virgins in your lair at a sodomising distance from your beasts or male prisoners. If you devirginised them yourself, though, that's another story. If they devirginised each other, then, I hope you had that webcam running.

                          No, it's done. I'll never see the light of day.
