Do you _really_ think Fallout is in production??

It has really gotten to my head... I am convinced! Fallout three HAS to be in production..!
The final proof, I got here: http://rpgvault.ign.com/articles/358/358796p1.html
Here, Chris Loonieman Avellone states three times that "Fallout 3 is not in production." In totally wicked places, like an attempt of the simplest form of subliminal messaging... It is obvious... He is trying to tell us that it is in production, but that he cannot tell us!! I just know it!

I'm not convinced by it, im sorry. He's just trying to tell us fallout isnt in production, according to his statements.
They are just ass-eating trashwankers that can't possibly come to realize fallout is what we want, not another ice wind dale.

I say NO, these money bags will sooner waste their money on some "FO fantasy" stuff, than on normal game... This stuff really pisses me off...

I have to agree with Gany. Avellone is making too big a deal about it, messing up his really nice IWD2 post...
:bday: FALLOUT3 IS COMING :bday:

Let the force be with me, while waiting for its release, the end of 2005.

I don't think Fallout 3 is in production. And it'll probably never be released...

I'm just realistic over here...

Ok... This Swiss note _has_ to have slipped my mind...

http://www.egames.ch/default.asp?module=news&id=104
"Virgin Interactive Frankreich hat offiziell den dritten Teil der Fallout-Reihe angekündigt. Als Entwickler sind die Rollenspiel-Spezialisten von den Black Isle Studios engagiert. Fallout Fantasy, so der komplette Name, soll bereits im September erscheinen. Mehr Infos wird es leider erst an der E3 Ende Mai geben. (12.04.2002)"

Translates something like:
"Virgin Interactive France has officialy announced the Third episode in the Fallout Series. The RPG-specialists Black Isle Studies has been engaged as developers. Fallout Fantasy, which is the complete title, should be ready for release in September. Unfortunately, more info will not be given until later in May, at the E3. (12.04.2002)"

I believe it's in production, I can't wait until it arrives in England. I just hope they don't F**k it up, that's my main concern, that my favourtie RPG series will fall faster than the power of the Nazis after the death of Hitler.

Actually the Third Reich was falling before Hitler capped 'imself... But nonetheless...

OF COURSE, virgininteractive.fr had to down for maintenance!!! :roll:
virgininteractive.de only had Fo:T...
at co.uk, well... not much... NOT much...

So... I've searched Kelkoo/Zoomit for more sites preselling FO3, I've searched no, dk, se, nl, uk, fr, es, it... No luck there either... Hm... But let's analyse my previous post a bit...

According to the Swiss site, it was V.I.France that had announced another FO game... Now, we can assume that they had gotten this from one of two places... Either the same report Overgame saw or Overgame themselves... Of course there is always the possibility of Egames.ch having contacts within V.I.F. However, that would contradict to the statement of "officialy announced"...
Further down, they say it's being developed by BIS... That is in contradiction to Killzig's source, who claimed DM was the developers...
Fallout Fantasy, however, seems to be a name that follows all rumors like a ghost... In my own personal little utopia, that name is just a sick Feargus joke, however... :roll:

So... I really must confess that I do not know what to beleive... Maybe it's all a conspiracy..? The rumors of FF, the only source going down for maintenance, CA's pathetic attempts of subliminal de-advertisement... Not to mention the first choice of the polls dissappearing... But who's the main man..? Feargus? Avellone? Silverprick? W? Bill Gates? Pyro?

You should have included an "other" option along w/"Fuck Off!". ;)

Let's examine the logic of this situation:

If MCA says, "FO3 is not in production," it really means that FO3 is in production.

On the other hand, I'm sure if MCA said, "FO3 is in production," you'd take that to mean that FO3 is in production.

Hmmm...sounds like no matter what MCA says you'd believe that FO3 is in production. While I would like FO3 to be in production I haven't seen any evidence of it, and will wait for an official press release before "ich mir die Hose voll mache vor lauter aufregung". :P

The only sign I've seen that might point towards FO3's current or soon-to-come production would be the "Starting the Madness" thread a while back on the BIS boards, coupled w/MCA's seeming interest in things like the FO Bible as well as his polls on the BIS boards regarding things like "most worthless skill".

Well... If you can't see the first one... Just another indication towards my conspiracy theory, I guess... ;)
Regarding my logic, it's just that I'd probably accepted more it if mr.Avellone said: "Look, I'm going to say it only once. Fallout 3 is not in production... Period."
Right now, he can't open his mouth without it coming a "Fallout 3 is not in production" out...
It's kind of like a 5-year old who says: "Hi Mommy, I did not break any lamps when I was downstairs playing..."

If I only knew how to make myself clear...

:lol: That sounds suspiciously like something my demonspawn nephew would say...

I wonder if MCA is just reacting to the fact that he is constanly pestered about FO3 being/not being in production. Of course, you could be right, all I'm saying is that there's no real way to know, barring an official press release.

Okay, now I will go and pick up my beloved Pioneer receiver. Mmmmm...that room filling sound...mmmm...
