I'm gonna say March 2016, still within those financial borders for the same fiscal year.

I got March 2016.
No, way too far to be announcing it this soon. Skyrim was announced a year before.
Plus, they've been working on this game for a while now, it's about time.
Countless people give a shit. Going cross-gen would likely result in an inferior game, the memory of the new machines can allow for gameplay advancements that the PS3, 360 and Wii U can't do.
For example, you know how in the Batman Arkham games the only way to enter buildings is to go to the door, walk through, and sit through a loading screen while the building interior loads? That's due to 512MB of RAM not being enough to hold the open world AND the building interiors at once. Arkham Knight, due to being next-gen exclusive, will actually let you enter a building from various different points (like smashing through a 10th-floor window while gliding) because 8GB of RAM allows that. That sort of freedom could also work well in Fallout 4, and if they go cross-gen we miss out.
Ehhh, I dunno, XCOM 2 just got announced for a November 2015 release. It's unlikely, but I honestly wonder if maybe the reason for the delayed announcement isn't because the game has taken so long or suffered delays in development, but just because they wanted to announce it and release it within 2015.
Would be very surprised if it were a 2015 release. There were 11 months between the Skyrim reveal and release date, and more than a year between Fallout 3's reveal and release.
I am.Just woke up, EU
Hah, same here! Would look really bad if I went to sleep while at work
I really hope they aren't playing with us and announce a Fallout 3 remaster or something. I need a new fallout! 7 more hours to go!

If this is anything else than Fallout 4 there will be a giant backlash.
I hope Bethesda are not that stupid to try and release a Fallout MMO before they release Fallout 4. They should have learnt their lesson from the ESO failure.
I would not mind a remaster of Fallout 3 and New Vegas for the new hardware/OS since they worked bad on last gen and have some troubles running on current Windows (7/8). Maybe they even could add some of the most popular mods as extra options.
I would pay full price for a PS4-compilation of said games.

You are forgetting The Evil Within and Wolfenstein. Pretty sure both will get a sequel.
Co-op is always fun, I just don't see how it would work, what with stuff like VATS and conversations with people being a big part of the games

If the "behind-closed doors" thing from e3 2013 (iirc) was true...then it'll be October this year. Off the top of my head I can't think of anything that comes out then but my memory tends to abandon me in my moments of need.
Edit: I think co-op could work if the conversations were like SWTOR where it rolled a dice to see which party member's choice was chosen and maybe if VATS, rather than "freezing time" simply slowed it down a bit and they somehow synced it up like however the hell ME3 delt with Biotic Charge in MP. I wouldn't want a different co-op mode though, I'd fucking love say siblings emerging from VaultGAF into the Boston wasteland or whatever and they can proceed along the adventure like normal.
Not really no.

That is what streamlining is for...
Just remove the bits that casual gamers dont like....
Huh, that's weird.
I thought Arkane Austin were now developing it.

Fuck! Just burn all remaining hope you have, no matter how little.
Don't see it being ever July maybe March/ Feb 2016 but reckon November/ October this year (especially if cross-gen)
They definitely were at some point. It is possible it got renamed and turned into a new IP or something like that. They were restarting from scratch anyways.
Edit: Or they are straight up lying. That would not surprise me either. They did it before, especially with Prey 2.

Cross gen you gotta be fucking kidding me. For a 2016 title as well.
Building any gameworld that scales between hardware with a total of 512Mb memory and another with 8000Mb of memory is ridiculous. In fact it's impossible to utilise the hardware of the latter in any way that does it justice so you end up with a game thoroughly gimped for consoles that were released 10 years ago at the point of release. TEN FUCKING YEARS!

Prey 2 is dead, but Prey: Rebirth is coming October 2017.
I'll be at work while it's announced so I hope so.

My wish would be a Fallout 4 for PS4, X1&PC and an Obsidian spin-off for my Xbox 360.
Hell no, I'm gonna be sitting in an auditorium, starting a hard math exam the EXACT moment the timer is going to hit zero, no way in hell am I going to be able to focus and give it my all lol

You can't put a great studio like Obisidian to do something for last gen, that would be horrible for us the fans, and them.
Wasted talent for that.

I wasn't going to, but I can't sleep now.
Screw trains though, grab your walking stick this is a Hypeing Trail. Enjoy the scenery, and yes that is the exact same overpass you saw 2 miles back.

It's going to be a 2 minute CG trailer with a "Watch the first gameplay at the Bethesda conference..." message at the end.
I'm hyped but let's set realistic expectations for today.

Perhaps they use the Skyrim-engine, so even people with Intel HD GPU can play it.
