Josh Sawyer, the creative director for Fallout: New Vegas posted on his twitter the possibility of the next fallout game to be set in New Orleans.

This is just some fan-art, not confirmed by Obsidian Entertainment or Bethesda.

I call it 'The Big Easy' because that is the common nickname for New Orleans. Fallout rarely retains the names of the cities in their games, so I doubt it would be called 'New Orleans.'

I'm not a modder or anything but it would be interesting to this implemented into a mod for Fallout 4 Nexus. Seeing the success of Fallout: Lonestar anything is possible in today's interconnected society.

Synopsis: (*a lot of this was sourced from FALLOUT wiki, not sure if it's 100% canon)

In 2051 Hurricane Zeus ravages the Gulf of Mexico. It is discovered a Hu-Fengya, a Chinese weather machine, was activated in the Gulf by the Mexican government, trying to extract the oil rigs in the region while the United States was preoccupied with the catastrophe.

This promotes a declaration of war, and the United States invades Mexico and liberates the gulf. New Orleans, along with the rest of the Gulf Commonwealth, fall into disarray.

While U.S priorities are in defeating the Mexican menace a militia known as the September Watch takes authority in the streets of New Orleans.
They are a Ku-Klux-Klan esque society, who despise minorities and other inferiors.

Poseidon Energy signs a pact with the federal government in 2052. They will manufacture weaponry and supplies needed in the event of a nuclear holocaust in exchange for financial protection and the commercialization of weather-induced technology. This is the earliest chapter in the history of the Enclave.

Poseidon was able to channel and alter the flow of storms and weather patterns to their liking. This enabled them to deflect nuclear warheads and other debris from damaging their property. This explains how the Poseidon Oil Rig in Fallout 2 was kept intact after hundreds of years.

The last remnants of the Enclave migrated eastwards to Chicago in the 2240s. Their control of the Ohio River Valley promoted a mass expansion across the former United States.

One army, led by Augustus Autumn, colonized and subjugated the riverbanks of the Ohio River, reaching Pennsylvania by 2077.

The other, led by Faith Baldwin, traversed south down the Mississippi, hoping to access the remnants of the Poseidon Oil Fields in the Gulf of Mexico. Seeing how much destruction they were capable of with just one oil rig, having possession of dozens of rigs could mean world domination.

The local September Watch government has been in power long before the Great War, and does not intend to surrender its position. The organization has changed greatly over the years, with a new emphasis on the eradication of mutants rather then minorities. This shift in philosophy has created a sharp contrast between the old and young demographics.

The current president, Mabel Jackson, is the first African-american, and the first woman, to be elected as head-of-state. While a strong and cunning military commander, who saved the Septembers from raiders to the west, her ethnicity has lead to a strong divide on her legitimacy as president.

Setting:
Obviously no Fallout game encompasses an entire state, so I tried to keep it realistic. The game map would stretch from Gulfport, Mississippi, to New Iberia, Louisiana.

All land west of the Mississippi would be part of 'The Muskeg,' a swampland enhanced by years of nuclear radiation. It forms a strong contrast from the near exclusive human population in the east to the super-mutants, ghouls and other atrocities in the west.

The northwest would be under Enclave jurisdiction. Baton Rogue would serve as their military base. The east would be dominated by the September Watch, with their capital city being New Orleans. The southwest is inhabited by the mutants and undesirables from either faction.

East of New Orleans would be the Poseidon Oil Fields.
