I want Bethesda's visuals and map design, and Obsidian's story/writing and dialogue options. Of course, this isn't going to happen so I guess I'll stick with 'better story, more options'...

Oh yeah, and no watering-down.

Hello,
So I'm trying to come up with a FO4 wishlist and I have a few thoughts! But I wanted to get some ideas rolling once again in the community and possible expand on my wishlist with some of VGU's wishes for Fallout 4 for whenever the game is released! Feel free to tell me everything you want or even repeat previous wishes from other users. I want to see who wants what and how many people want what! Let's all brainstorm together for this one and try to make a big list of awesome ideas!

A Better Disguise System, If I want to wear the armor of a faction im idolized by, I shouldnt be reset to neutral. Why would anyone WANT to lower there rep with a faction they want to stay high with?

I would like to have something like random events such as you're about to get mugged or something like in freeside.

sure is nuclear winter

I know its a little bit simple and basic but..i really want them to add backpacks! It was also annoying and immersion breaking when my character would run about with who knows what with no where to put the stuff! First mod i got when i moved from xbox to pc was a backpack mod..

Okay bear with me on this I have a lot of ambition for this game and I would like to see some new creatures like the enclave screwing with DNA bring back a dinosaur except they accidently mix the dna with siberian tiger dna thus making a velocitiger or something crazy

I want to see playable races other than humans, such as ghouls and super-mutants. The non-human races could have different abilities from humans, such as ghouls being immune to radiation and Super Mutants just being generally tougher and stronger.

There would need to be weaknesses to balance out the strengths of course, like ghouls taking more damage and being weaker, super mutants being too big for power armor and small weapons, and both being ostracized by some factions.

I think im going to go with greater optimization out of the gate. I found it took a good amount of time and unofficial patches to make FO3 FNV run smoothly.

I really hope they improve the way animations work. Look at games like GTA V, the animations transition so perfectly and look really natural. Then you've got Fallout New Vegas which pretty much has the worst animation of any modern AAA game.

Also would be nice if you could choose from a few animation styles in game.

Improved animation is one thing i think the series could use for sure although i would assume that i was the game engine that limited many of the animations. Second, i would love to see a coop feature. Not just some tacked on feature either, i fully fleshed out online "STORY" co-op mode so me and my friends can enjoyed together.

More realistic hard core mode and damage from weapons as well and how many hits you can take as a player before going down.
Courier are not God!

P.S. if this sound like a rant I'm sorry

I'll try and keep this brief:

- Companions with a deeper and more interesting back story. They did quite well in Fallout: New Vegas, but if it could be improved upon in similar vein to Russell or Rigma of Bruma, that'd be great.
- More challenging, immersive and balanced gameplay, taking notes from Project Nevada/Fallout Wanderers Edition/Skyrim Redone.
- Realistic damage (See above)
- No placebo hard difficulies where enemy health is ramped up and player health is reduced. A true increase in enemy AI difficulty.
- Hiring someguy2000 to write quests and characters
- Optional bullet time instead of VATS
- Improved Collision meshes!!
- Improved hand-to-hand combat
- Next Gen graphics that don't require ENBs. I'd love to just play the game for once instead of modding all the time!
- Far more armor/clothing variation - think Spice of Life.
- Better and smoother animations HIRE HITMAN47101!!
- Optional disable fast travel/immersive fast travel
- Expanded and HEAVILY improved combat dialogue that dynamically changes based on your level, main quest and karma.
- Ability to befriend enemies like raiders or mutants, or at least disguise.
- Thorough pre-release bug fixing and PC performance, stability and memory optimisation. Although they're a godsend, we shouldn't need ENBoost, NVAC, Stutter Removers et al.

I trust the story and map design will be fine, so I have no qualms there.

More interesting locations
Improved companions
A game without 4 trillion bugs in i
Better weapons with realistic damage
Improved character creation
Improved game engine
New factions

I just wish for Obsidian to make it. I trust them to make a great Fallout game a lot more than Bethesda, considering they made New Vegas (which utterly destroyed F3 for me) in such a small timeframe (and the bugs were the responsibility of Bethesda, who was in charge of QA). Don't have much hope for Bethesda's "quality" writing and RPG mechanics.

I would love for fallout 4 to have a lot more companions, I never really like how few their are in the game seeing as they all had pretty good backround story's to them that I liked to get involved into, Also for some updated graphics, It's amazing the look you can achieve by adding some mods to new vegas

I think the biggest thing for me is making the all the animations realistic. Seeing this blocky character try to forge across the wastes just doesnt feel right to me. Also for the love of god give me a cover system to add some real depth to a gun fight so im not a sponge for bullets. Lastly I would love it if they added a large craft system, you have tons of useless things lying around why not use them in some way or make trap of some kind. I know it was slightly touched upon but i would like a full fledged system.

A simple player home option that can be upgraded as the game goes on. A lot go over the top with an Easy locked underground bunker stockpiled with everything. If it was something like an abandoned bus or shipping container, I think it would fit well.

Let's see:
1. This is essential, no question about it, game should be moddable.
2. Stabile, with as much as it's possible bug free game, basically finished product would be nice for a change.
3. Bigger world with post-apocalyptic feel that Fallout 3 had. Meaning urban aria... Big, big city(cities) to explore.
4. I would love to see some free climbing. Buildings, rocks... etc. Maybe some grapple hooks.
5. Bow. There should be in Fallout... Period.
Everything else should/will be added by modders.

Stability
Modifiable
Larger world

I hope fallout 4 has

New and better weather system
Maybe a car
Bigger map
Nice main quest
New cool weapons
Better graphics
