Fallout: Mutant threat
Fallout2: High tech human threat (Enclave)

The plot of Fallout 3 has to have some sort of world threat line but whats really left without leaving the world of fallout (how the game is)

The best bet would seem to be some sort of alien threat on the planet, or even traveling to a different country, but what would really be different, you wont get a more powerful human threat then the enclave but before posting your ideas take heed of these points:

1) The bloodline of the vault dweller. (cant break that cycle can we :P)

2) Technology of weapons. (better weapons etc so need a stronger enemy then enclave, and no one really wants to play a game with less technology than the previous)

3) There will still be mutants there not sterile (from fallout 2 if marcus gets laid at the cats paw he tells you, kinda wrecks the mutant plot line in fallout tactics dont it)

Personaly I dont want to play the same enemy again (even if upgraded). They might be needed as a sub enemy of course, before the main threat is seen.

But what of the quest and how it falls in with the plot... post your ideas here

I suggest an alien thing, but no one liked that. Not like fallout enough.

Anyway who says it has to follow the same plot line as the other 2. That would be boring. Look at other RPG's, I havnt played many others so could someone tell me a plot line in some of the big rpgs?

But for Fallout 3 it could be something like your tribe has been taken hostage by someone and you just have to rescue them. It dosent have to involve the whole world.
But if it did... maybe another nuclear war is about to happen, but you must travel around the world to talk the leaders out of it and disarm their nuclear bombs or something.
 
Bloodline, good idea. Also, I think it would be cool if you started off in the big city that Arroyo used with their G.E.C.K., and not run off and start over like you had to in Fallout 2. I mean, how can you go from a high-tec underground vault to a primitive village? I would like to have a town with technology maybe slightly weaker than Vault City, and of course, no vault.

Alien threat is a good idea. Perfect. Couldn't say better.

Even having aliens in Fallout 2 was a bit much. The random encounter in Fallout 1 was cool, as was the skeleton in SAD in Fallout 2, but hundreds of them roaming the wastelands? Rather farfetched... As for the tribe getting kidnapped thing, uh, didn't that happen in Fallout 2? And how the hell are you going to travel around the world? Will you be able to find an SR-71 in Fallout 3? And I don't think there are any world leaders, with the possible exception of people like the President of the Enclave, who aren't really leaders of that much...

I can't think of much else without straying from the rules of fallout. I do like the idea of starting at your GECK built city but the only tough threat would be aliens...... sigh.....

Personally I would like more of fallout 2, I always thought of fallout 2 being redone in fallout tactics style graphics with LOADS more animations, quests, options etc and so many other routes to take. Sommet like Fallout 2 the TRUE story (sigh, smell the cheese lol). Not just a remake (cause that would be boring) but a complete overhall. More NPCs you can have, blah, blah (lets face it, I mean there was only 1 women you could get on your team sigh)

What you think?

All these doubts make me think if there ever will be a fallout 3....

How about this. It has been over 200 years since the war, things are returning to order, but the current descendant of the vault dweller that has about 1.56% Vault dweller genetic make up (not counting all that 99% or so everyone has in common). Since he is living in some GECK created city they have technology. The whole idea of the game would be the vault descendant(point 1) being placed in an insane asylum. He would then break out and run amuk throughout the city wielding ultra powerful weapons (point 2), while killing people, mutants and non-sterile mutants(point 3). So pretty much the whole game would consist of a 250 hour orgy of blood and violence.

I'm not sure where i'm going with this post, but I thought the idea was funny.
 
My idea for F03: The Brotherhood of Steel (under new command) decide to take the country by force imposing a new 'religious style' leadership. It's horrible, there are several mass murders. YOU as descendant of the Vault Dweller who saved the world all those years ago, have been chosen by your tribe/village/town/city to stop the Brotherhood of Steel.

Possible Endings:
Persuade the Bos to give up (high talk skill)
Kill the Bos (combat)
Assasinate the leader and take over the Bos

HAHAHA, Corporal Punishment, you are very very sick. That is the idea needed for a mock-Fallout game. You should make a Half-life mod out of it! Imagine, 250 hours! hehehe. Send it to the Wastelnd halflife people. That will be the basis for their single player adventure.
