They already explained it in the lore. There is absolutely nothing left outside America and China. China itself is boring. That leaves the US the ONLY place left that is still habitable.
Stop saying that. There is NOTHING that says ONLY china and america are remaining. They were the 2 main fighting countries, but they were not the only survivors. Since there is next to no way of finding out information about countries overseas, we have absolutely no idea what is and isnt inhabited.

For all we know there could be extremely prosperous overseas ghoul civilisations. Maybe vaults in other countries. But i highly doubt that any countries not majorly involved in this war is more damaged than those that are.
actually before interplay kicked the bucket, there were fallout bibles that detailed EXTRA lore for overseas locations. This is the official timeline.

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Timeline

Vaults are government owned. ONLY America could even afford them. The other countries were too poor, and went after the remaining oil instead. Europe didn't have vaults, they just raided the middle east and accidentally destroyed it and them in the process. In fact, America was pretty much the only country still developing technology. They were the ONLY ones with FEV, power armor, vaults, and fusion technology.

There was even lore concerning China in certain design documents for "fallout: extreme". Much worse than the US.
Plus considering that Vaults were made to do human experiments as they never thought a Nuclear Fallout would actually happen, they were used as actually vaults 2nd, human experiments, first.

Meaning there wasn't a mad rush to go out and make vaults.

I notice that bible says nothing about several countries such as Australia for example. My point was that their are still countries out there that we have no knowledge of whether they survived or not. This could be used to make completely new adventures.

But your also missing the fact that, what makes Fallout, Fallout is the US Setting. If they were to make a game in Austrailia, sure it could be really good, but it wouldn't be fallout.

Fallout is about retro-futurism, not american retro-futurism. The only reason that it's been american retro-futurism is because it's been set in america up to this point.

There would be no NCR, Enclave, Brotherhood of Steel, Super Mutants, FEV, Vaults, and all of what currently is in the Fallout formula. It would be taking everything out of Fallout.

Plus like someone said, they should stick with how each time a fallout game happens, the world is slowly getting better. Not dramatically, but slowly you can see it getting better.

yes, but didn't fallout new vegas take place like somewhat close to 200 years after the bombs dropped? i think if they did another time skip like they usually do in every fallout game that should've been enough time for the radiation to clear...but what would fallout 3 be without radiation though, hmmm?

They would all still be dead. Just because the radiation clears. Doesn't mean the rest of the world suddenly got better.

Australian Fallout exists, and it is called Mad Max.

New York.

It almost has to be New York. Bethesda wants locations that have lots of iconic American landmarks that Joe Average will recognize. That's likely why they picked the D.C. area.

Let's say Detroit.
I thought fallout 3 was set in Detroit, you know as a prequel before the bombs fell.
I see what you did there ;)

OT: Personally I'd like to see it return to an area around where FO:2 was set, adding back the old Enclave base in Navarro, SF, Gecko etc. but then possibly go north from there into Washington and Canada. Or maybe around Chicago area? I just want FO:4 soon :D

I thought it wasn't so much that the radiation had cleared in FO:NV but that the West Coast wasn't hit as hard as the Capital Wasteland was?

That's at least what I understood...

We need it here in atlanta, face it, over here in A-town we have:

A very large city (in terms of spread)
The smallpox virus in sealed vents (could be used for story)
Similarities to Fallout 3 in terms of terrain
A BEUTIFUL capitol building
Lockheed martin airforce base
Fort Benning for military equipment

I find it perfect for the next fallout. The only game that has come close to hitting home was Left 4 Dead 2.

I like the idea of setting somewhere entirely new. without any of the previous factions, I think somewhere in the south could be fun like New Orleans or the Everglades in Florida. I think the West coast and capital wasteland stories could be continued in spin offs like New Vegas.

Personally i would like to see it set in en England/Scotland, there's something about the idea of blowing a mutated Scottish highlander that appeals to me...And London would be a good setting, think of the traditional London mist...then picture it in a steampunk, post apocalyptic world with mutants shambling through the fog.
That would be an amazing setting. Besides, it seems that Bethesda are going for civil war and steampunk in their games as it is (Civil War questline and the Dwemer machinery in Skyrim).

Mutants living underneath bridges, the Thames possibly being dried up or irradiated beyond belief, London Aquarium and London Zoo being infested with mutated animals, and there being a civil war questline involving the monarchy wanting to continue and the government wanting to rule instead (a la Charles I and Cromwell). Plus the steampunk thing could happen, as Bethesda did well with it in the Dwemer ruins, so that could be implemented somehow.

Fallout: London would be awesome.
