Where will the next Fallout take place?

Bethesda may be already working on the next Fallout game. Regardless of whether it will be good or not, where do you think the next game will take place? Fallout 4 may be the title, but who knows? I have a bunch of ideas for possible locations. I personally think New York is way over rated, and should be skipped for now. I also think popular suggestions like San Fran and LA aren't as good, since those locations have been done before.

Here are a few ideas that have been listed so far:

Seattle - They could touch on the Canadian annexation, the Space Needle, and a more "Winterized" wasteland. Fallout 3 had green, FNV had brown, and Seattle would have white-in reference to the color scheme...I don't know if I explained that properly.

New England - Fallout 3 had already sown some seeds with references to the Institute and the Commonwealth. While my hopes are not high, a Post-Apocalyptic Boston with minutemen fighting invading mutants on Bunker Hill, I mean, Breed's Hill, would be amusing.

New Orleans - We'd had some discussions about how the Big Easy would be a great location for a Fallout. Of course New Orleans has a rich and varied cultural background. Voodoo or Hoodoo would be awesome to utilize in a Fallout setting. This would be a very interesting locale to say the least.

New York - The obligatory New York spot. It has plenty of iconic locations, but I feel the scope would have to be massive to do it justice. I imagine Sinatra being played when I think of New York. Would the WTC be around? How would the Statue of Liberty look? What about Central Park? Plenty of material to work with.

Hawaii - Yes. I said that. Pearl harbor re-imagined as a nuclear first strike. Whatever. I want to choose not to rescue entire vilages from enroaching lava flows and fall into punji stick traps. Samoan tribals, feral dolphins escaped from weird Naval programs, etc. Also, plenty of military sites available to justify silly new (and old) weapons, and an oppressed local culture with a history of killing people just for showing up and being a dick. No BoS or enclave, because why the fuck would they bother?

Detroit - I am working on a game concept for this city. The city is practically a post apocalyptic wasteland in real life. Detroit Motors could play a big role. The Great Lakes area is something I am very interested in. Fresh Water would be VERY important in a PA society, and the Great Lakes have the most fresh water around. A good excuse to bring back the Highwayman.

Toronto - Practically a double for New York, but without the tired cliche. I am anxious to know about Canada and their annexation. Once again this is a vastly different environment than previous games. I think the series needs to progress in a different direction.

Chicago - Enclave has been done to death, but they were mentioned as having a base there. Could bring back the Midwest Brotherhood as well. It's worth considering at least. Many of these locations all exist in the Great Lakes area. I personally think a Great Lake area Fallout is plausible.

Miami - Not much to say here. Would be a welcome change from other bleak environments. Tropical atmosphere, and mutated crocs(alligators?). Anyplace in Florida would be pretty different in comparison to 3 and NV.

Dallas - I am curious what would be done with this town. The Texas Rangers would be interesting to see. I also wonder if the Legion would be around. Austin and San Antonio might make interesting locations as well.

There is a remote possibility of the game taking place outside the US. I think this is a poor choice, but it should be acknowledged.
London, Hong Kong, Rome, and many others have been mentioned. Fallout is more about Americana though.

I guess there could be the option for a city such as the Boneyard, or San Fran taking center stage again. I hope not, but it is a possibility. They could feature the Capitol Wasteland as well, but I think they should move one. I would be pretty disappointed if they featured DC or New Vegas again personally.

Any thoughts folks? Any way we can get some kind of a Poll going guys? I personally don't see why future DLC couldn't feature specific city environments, like a DLC for Chicago for instance, similar to what Point Lookout and the Pitt did. FNV did a great job with the Big Empty. I think something could be done like that for a major city as well. Discuss, post pics, etc.......


Edit: I put in a few of the suggestions that others have added. I added a few of my personal comments in as well.

 

Why!? I think Detroit embodies 1950's culture.

 

This. I have a ton of ideas for a Great Lakes Fallout game. It is a prime spot in my opinion. Fresh water would be important for any wasteland survivors. Cleveland, Chicago, Detroit, Toronto, and you gotta mention good old Grand Rapids, Michigan. Shop smart, shop S-Mart....YA GOT THAT!? The area is ripe for the picking practically. Bethesda needs to read these forums for ideas. I am sick of hearing about New York though. Everyone uses New York for everything- Comics, movies, games, tv-shows, etc....

It could be done well, but why rush it? Save New York for a graphic engine that works better.

@Subhuman: Yeah I'm working on a Detroit area concept too. It would be cool to collaborate on something if you like. I figure if Bethesda doesn't make it, someone can always mod it. The mod community seems to be more focused on boobs and explosions though instead of making new environments that fit the canon. It's a shame really.

Someone in another forum mentioned that Bethesda should make the world for Fallout 4, but Obsidian should write the dialog. I think some kind of collaboration would be the next best thing to Obsidian having full control (Which isn't very likely)...

I liked the Mojave better than DC personally, but apparently not everyone felt the same way. It would be nice to see a change of scenery in the next game though. I think New Orleans is a good idea, but Point Lookout touched on that kind of environment already. I am anxious to seeing weather in a Fallout game without mods. As boring as Fallout 3 was, when you added the Weather mods it completely changed the experience. I loved the radioactive rain personally. It made it dangerous to wander the wastes.

Anyway, keep the ideas coming folks. I want to see what the hardcore fanbase thinks. I know the series could be in better shape, but I try to make the best of it. I am a little hopeful after New Vegas, but I hope Fallout 4 isn't as shitty as Skyrim, because if that is the case I may lose it. I will remain patiently optimistic until I see reason to get pissed.

I was thinking about a concept for the Great Plains in Fallout. I can imagine Radioactive Cyclones, Cowboys, and Brahmin Rustlers in a weird wasteland atmosphere. Maybe it's just me.
