History WMG / Fallout76

[[/folder]]

[[WMG: The game will be a ''VideoGame/{{Fortnite}}'' clone.]]
Bethesda loves money.

[[folder:Post-E3]]

In the fallout universe it became very fashionable to have sloths as exotic pets (at least in some areas) which is why you deal with mutated sloths now.

[[WMG: The Vault Assisted Targeting System will be eliminated]]
If PvP combat is possible, there's simply no way that VATS, whether the "Freeze Time" in F3 and FNV, or the "Slow Time" from F4 can be fairly implemented. The in-game reason will be that the player is using an early model PIP Boy which doesn't feature VATS.

* Krivbeknists - A cult of sentient Ghouls centered around a Dunwitch facility, worshipping a Cthulhu {{Expy}} that will serve as the BigBad.

* Vault tec: no doubt Vault tec would keep a section of Vault tec scientists near one of their Control vaults to take notes

[[WMG: ''Fallout 76'' is set in West Virginia.]]
One of the first big clues was the use of Music/JohnDenver's "Country Roads" ("West Virginia, Mountain Mama / Take me home, country roads"), but the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_x-ih_O6xA E3 2018 trailer]] also has a visual clue: the [[https://www.nps.gov/neri/planyourvisit/nrgbridge.htm New River Gorge Bridge]], which can be seen in the distance in one of the trailer's scenic shots.

* An Enclave splinter faction - It's mentioned in the lore that there were multiple Enclave cells hiding in various parts of the country but they lost contact with the main one on the oil rig when the bombs dropped, perhaps you come accross them in a bunker and since it's only been 25 years (and your a vault dweller) they don't have the same genocidal tendencies as the main branch.

[[WMG: Factions encountered]]
We won’t see the Brotherhood, Super Mutants or the Enclave since those factions migrated here from the West Coast years later. We won’t see the Institute either as they haven’t formed yet. Although House and his casinos exist, they won’t have any influence here besides occasional references. Possibilities are:

Talon Company - an amoral mercenary outfit willing to do anything for the right amount of caps

The Regulators - A group formed out of former law enforcement officers struggling to maintain order

The Kavaliers - Confederate themed group of ruthless slavers

Krivbeknists - A cult of sentient ghouls centered around a Dunwitch facility, worshipping a Cthulhu expo that will serve as the BigBad

The [[IAmAHumanitarian Humanitarians]] - A group of cannibals

The Fancy Lads and Ladettes - A group of people addicted to sweet foods, thereby willing to do anything for that sugar high, including raiding

[[WMG: Your character will be part of the first generation born in the vault.]]

Seeing as how every game so far[[note]]not counting ''Fallout Shelter''[[/note]] have had ''some'' kind of title for the main character (i.e., "The Chosen One", "The Lone Wanderer", "The Vault Dweller"), we might as well guess what title the player will have[[note]]Feel free to add guesses here[[/note]].

* Vault Boy/Girl

* The Trailblazer

* The First of the Generation

The Puppetman from the tie-in ''Webcomic/PennyArcade'' webcomic ''Webcomic/OneManAndACrateOfPuppets'' (which is referenced in ''VideoGame/Fallout3'') is from Vault 77, just one number off Vault 76, meaning he could be nearby.
