Jokes on you, Bethesda still hasn't decided to announce it.

But, I will pose a question - how much longer do you think they can go without a formal announcement that says "Yes, it exists, and yes, it's coming"?

To put it into perspective going off of past Fallout games - Bethesda stated in 2004 they would begin working on Fallout 3, but didn't truly begin whole-heartedly until after Oblivion shipped. The first announcement and trailer came around in 2007, and the game launched in October 2008.

Fallout New Vegas was announced in April 2009, and launched October 2010.

So, is 2015 the year of an announcement? Or is Bethesda going to continue teasing the idea til 2016, or beyond?

They are most likely developing an entirely new engine, and are also developing it for the current generation of consoles. That is going to take some time. Everyone knows the engine used in the other Fallout games was becoming dated, so they are no doubt spending a couple years developing a brand new one, then after it is finished, they can begin work on the actual game.

Considering (If the reports are true) the fact that Bethesda employees were seen in Boston scouting locations, assuming it's for Fallout 4, the engine would be close to done at this point. That, on top of the fact that the game has likely been in production since 2010 according to an interview at the time, indicates we'd be close to a time when they're working on the actual game.

I highly doubt they're creating a brand new engine. Heavily modifying it is more likely.

So... I guess I'm going to have to pick up after your horrendous mistakes on here too?
When GTA heists come out

Fallout 4 will be released way before heists in GTA 5 exist.

Realized they still have not release TES: Online for consoles yet. I have hopes for E3 2015 but realistically, it will be during 2016

ESO isn't a Bethesda game.
Zenimax are probably just sweeping that shit under the rug and pretend like it never happened.

Didn't they go so far as to declare ESO non-canon?

It's canon.

You can't declare stuff non-canon.

They're going to drop the announcement (probably) within a year of the game's release.

I tried to dig up the article I saw but it's mysteriously missing, and all the other sites I can find the alleged announcement  on are websites I've never heard of before

If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
I reckon it'll be announced and released faster if they restrict it to only the next gen consoles and PC.

Though that'll be offset by (hoping) a better QA for the amount of bugs that are now synonymous with Bethesda games.
