Set it in New York. All things are better in New York.
An out of control Central Park (finally, greenery!), spooky, raider-filled Queens, a Vegas-esque Broadway, a heavily militarized Times Square, Liberty Island as a Brotherhood of Steel bunker. New York City could provide an immensely varied locale for a Fallout game.
Other than that I'd like to see:
- More actual RPG-ness, Fallout 1/2 style. New Vegas was making a really good effort, now for the final stretch. Let us try to break that door open when we can't pick it's lock or even blow it up. Let us talk our way out of various situations. Let us pick and choose what we want to do, which people we want to support and how we want to resolve each story.
- I like the idea of making followers more useful. Sort of like Mass Effect squadmates where their out-of-combat abilities matter too.
- Some more camp and cheese would be welcome. It is Fallout after all.
- A way better engine with way better facial animations. There's a lot of talking in Fallout especially if they really bring back more RPG elements. Skyrim's engine won't cut it for that.
- More progress of civilization. With that I don't mean rebuilding entirely, but for heaven's sake; clean your windows, give that building a lick of paint, remove the wrecks from your streets, that sort of thing. If you can print your own damn money surely you can do little things like that. Sometimes in New Vegas it was plain impossible to tell where the Wasteland ended and where civilization began.
