The trailer appears to switch between scenes that are pre and post the nuclear apocalypse that created the world we know in Fallout 3. However, did you notice that one of the apparently pre-apocalypse scenes contains Brotherhood of Steel soldiers, an organisation that was meant to have emerged after the apocalypse?

That’s led us to an interesting theory: could civilisation after Fallout 3 have developed to a roughly equivalent state that it was at before the nuclear apocalypse over decades, only for history to repeat itself and for a second nuclear apocalypse to occur, setting up the events of Fallout 4?

It’s worth noting that the phrase “our soldiers were right, war never changes” is uttered around the time that the Brotherhood of Steel soldiers appear, reinforcing the idea that history repeats itself.

Let me re-phrase. Dogs are loyal animals, and I love them for the most part, but anyone who values an animals life over a human's, regardless of what type of person they are, loses all respect from me.

In certain quests they referenced the area of Maryland and it's said they they have significant humanoid tech. The Commonwealth! that's what it was called.

I wonder if this game with include that. I know it was rumored..

I'm fairly confident we'll see it this year, but everyone else will claim 2016. I can't see it taking 2 years to come out.
no point in starting the hype machine now if it's gonna be 2 years.

I don't know about 2015 release though... Skyrim was announced 11 months before release.

I don't know. A lot of the stuff I've seen in screen caps is very similar to what we've seen in 3 and NV (those flying sphere robots, for instance). The BOS suit did look updated, but you'd have to figure on a lot of design changes. And I wouldn't think that civilization could make it back to the point they showed in the trailer.

But who knows. We'll see in the reveal.

Yeah, I thought the Brotherhood of Steel just used pre-war military tech. Maybe made some small improvements.

Correct. The brotherhood firmly believes in hoarding pre war tech.

I'd answer that (don't think it's the same question), but that's a road I don't want to go down in this thread.

A bunch of guessing at this point. Nothing hinted at in the trailer or on the site as of yet. Reveal is on the 14th.

I don't think they are sure. Just speculation from what was in the trailer.

Power Armor was probably around pre-apocalypse

You wouldn't buy Fallout 4 because it has a sad dog?
