Bethesda has recently released Elder Scrolls Online for PC and I was just wondering if they released a Fallout Online, would you play it?

Bethesda did not develop Elder Scrolls Online.

And based on how that game came out, no I wouldn't play an online Fallout game that they didn't make.

If they made it i would give it a try. But let's be honest here! Fallout is a singleplayer game

Well the fallout series was all about isolation if you have a bunch of people running around i would ruin the atmosphere i could see a 4 player coop but not a mmo.

To each their own, but I disagree.  That suggests the NPCs aren't 'people' in a sense, and there's no unwritten rule that states your character is the only capable person in the world.  

Having said that I wouldn't like an MMO, but I think 2-player co-op could be very fun if done right.  It'd be no different than playing with a companion, except your companion wouldn't get stuck on rocks and such.

And beside It wouldnt work cause fallout has VATS and it would just be weird

ESO was in closed (and open) beta for a long time. Things went from bad to worse untill, of course it went on a one time subscription (it had monthly payment, like WOW), free to play. It will probably be forgotten very soon, not because it's nowhere near as popular as Wow but because it's a bad game with poor design choices implemented.

The Stalker went on the same route with Survarium, it was supposed to be a massive multiplayer survival game, but it ended up being a Team Deathmatch fragfest unrelated to STALKER in any way.

The thing is, the moment you add in the human element in a single player game things are bound to get out of hand. A very good example of this is DayZ. Some crazy things are going on there and all of them are directly related to the human factor. Bandits. Bandits everywhere.

Also, more often then not, online games have problems with the "ingame shop" element. Look at the H1Z1 fiasco.

There's more to be said about a Fallout Online game but it's usually a very bad idea to take an exclusively single player game and make it online. Coop only on the other hand... might work.

Head like a hole.
Black as your soul.
I'd rather die.
Than uhh.. play another pitiful MMO by Zenimax Online.

it could be...ummm...fun? ahhh who am i kidding it would be terrible, and how would VATS work? i mean they just cant take it out

Fallout online also wouldn't make work as when you're traveling the wasteland you have that lonely feeling but if it was online you have people running around everywhere and mucking around ruining the atmosphere.

^ What he said. This has had a debate once, though.

I would never play it, I like single-player games. the feeling of me against the world, my actions being the deciding factor in the lives and stories of the game I'm playing always made feel special I guess. just the thought of going around in the wasteland and seeing dozens/hundreds of other people doing the same thing I'm doing (except better I assume) would just kill it for me. Not saying I don't like companions, but they are just people who help shape your story and don't highjack them. No give me single-player where I create the tale being written. + I like the idea of having something to do should my internet go bye bye.

If it happened I say I wouldn't play it, but I would just because it's Fallout. But I don't want any form of multiplayer in Fallout personally. But maybe that's just me.

Fallout online looks hard

I wouldn't play it, MMO's are not my thing and I don't think Fallout is the kind of franchise that is suited for it since it's always been about a lone figure, and hence a single player game.

Are you referring to Fallout Online Reloaded?

Just to clarify,Survarium is not Stalker.It is a little similar to it,but only a little bit.
Sure it is a russian game but this doesnt mean its stalker.
It is like if you would compare Call of duty and Counter strike a little similar but two diffrent games.

Fallout online?Sounds .....nah,there are better online games you can play.But I would not mind a 3 player coop at all.

STALKER is actually not a russian game, it's Ukrainian. Vostok Games are also Ukrainian based in Kiev. I don't want to sound like a dick but I will anyway. Ukraina was a free country back in 2007. Thank you.

Survarium is not STALKER but it was meant to be at one point, a few years ago (2012) when it started being developed. Ex GSC employees were working on it and it had burrowed elements directly from STALKER. That was not just a coincidence, it was supposed to be a spiritual and a bit of flesh succesor for STALKER.

I think I am allowed to post this post since this has nothing to do with politics/the current situation.  If someone gets offended by this I will delete this post and give my as much negative reputation as you want.

Back in 2007 I lived in Ukraine myself and back in those times people could say "We are one nation with russia,we are brothers"
To be honest I was born in Ukrain myself and  when I said I am russian everyone understood me,no one told me no you are not you are Ukrainian.

I wont talk much further about this even if I want,I am not allowed to do this here.

Also I forgot to say that GSC Games world worked with russian publishers so the game was devolped not only by Ukrainian devs.Just visit their website
