Kitt Frostpaws Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 https://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2013/11/14/zenimax-media-registers-website-teasing-new-game-possibly-fallout.aspx A hoax?... Shocking. I will say I'm sick of this policy where devs won't comment on rumors, it just fuels the fire even more, when they say "we won't say" I mean they could lie or something, but then I imagine that would be the new "we don't comment on rumors." I just wish they would say something. Oh well, we'll find the truth soon enough. That's part of the business plan I'd say It's not a bad marketing scheme when you think about it, build up as much 'mystery' (even if it is blatantly obvious) and hype then make the announcement and get all the fans saving up with a nice fat wad of cash in their little 'fallotu 4' jars.I'm starting my savings already.

Connall Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Everybody usually assumes a mysterious website is something it's not. So it may not be a hoax but it not be what you are expecting. I don't think it's bad marketing but it's just a pain in the ass. I also get tired of people playing a guessing game on what something is just for the sake of guessing. When companies do these sort of things, the payoff is also worse than what people were expecting it to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VamyreLord Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I like that countdown and the beeping sound. Although it is annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoboMat Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Btw. if you liked the old Fallout games you should give this game a try: http://www.underrail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connall Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Boo.. I want something a bit more interesting than that. A possible announcement isnt interesting? No the fact that intriguing beeping sounds provide no more information that we could extrapolate from the countdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No the fact that intriguing beeping sounds provide no more information that we could extrapolate from the countdown. Well it is better than just a beeping sound that is just...a beeping sound. I can't believe none of you have figured it out. That beeping is MORSE CODE. It translates to 12.11.13, which is December 11, 2013. I'm assuming that'll be the reveal date for the game, or possibly even the release date if we're really that lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I said "none of you" I meant none of the people who were calling it "beeping." I have really poor speaking skills OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitt Frostpaws Posted November 20, 2013 Author Share Posted November 20, 2013 Come on guys, we've already established it's morse code and not just beeps and boops, 'beeping' is just shorter to say than morse code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooks Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 The same reason it's not fallout 7 -- Brotherhood of Steel and Tactics don't count.Its kind of the same for assassin's creed. By all counts we should now be on assassin's creed 6 but I guess seeing as brotherhood and revelations were pretty much direct5 sequels (in terms of who the historical figure is) thats why they stopped numbering them until ac3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
