[ -> Update]

Pete Hines, <a href="http://www.bethsoft.com">Bethesda</a>'s PR manager, has made a post on <a href="http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/viewto ... 473">NMA's forums</a> about Fallout 3's status.<blockquote>There are no devs to be open to interviews because currently there are no devs for Fallout 3. As we've said several times, we're in pre-production and in the process of hiring people to work on the game. When there are devs, and they are ready to talk about the game, and we have something to talk about, we'll talk about the game.</blockquote>One thing you can say about <a href="http://www.bethsoft.com">Bethesda</a> is that they take their time.

Indeed you have...and those visuals on TES 4 look pretty stunning

(too bad they're not in a 3rd person isometric viewpoint, though

)

I don't really mind myself, let the folks at Bethesda take their time.

What does it matter to you Fallout Ranger? Do you want Fallout 3 as quickly as possible? They are working on TES IV, which is an important game on it's own.

Hopefully the results will be worth all the work, if it's keeping you fellows so busy. Like King of Creation said, what little we've seen has looked rather good.

Despite the fact that its Fallout Ranger speaking, I can somewhat understand his impatience........we've waited 6 years or so for a sequal. Still, I'd rather them take their time and maybe listen to the voice of reason (me) then just hurry up with "Morrowind Lite to Make Money!" type of deal. Gladfully it seemed they're going to atleast take their time.

it became viable for bethesda to buy the title... they grabbed it. if they hadn't, another company would... it isn't requisite for a studio to drop everything and pounce on something new when they took the fallout license because they had an oppurtunity to do so.

:confused2:

/me thinks of Daikatana and Duke.

T-900 - Troika already had a gameplan, a game engine, etc etc when they were going for FO3.

Well, I think most Fallout fans would rather see Troika have the licence, but that didn't happen. So we have to deal with the situation at hand.

Well, look at Bethesda's record, I don't really think that the contentious state of limbo of Duke Nukem Forever will come to pass, nor Daikatana's brand of failure (do you think we'll see any advertisements saying "Todd Howard will make you his bitch!").
