The Internet exploded in speculation as it turned out that a few days ago, Bethesda filed for a Fallout 4 trademark with the Office for the Harmonization of the Internal Market through their usual legal firm, DLA Piper.
You can find the filings here and here. Both are Nice classes 9, 16, 25, 41.
In human terms, this means Bethesda filed for trademarks for games, online information about games, printed media, and clothing. If you want the precise legal definition, look up the above links.
Now, does that mean anything? Maybe. Digging up the trademark filing for Fallout: New Vegas, it can be plainly seen that the European trademark was registered in October 2009, in Nice classes 9 and 41, about four months before the teaser trailer was released in February 2010. This might be a similar situation. Might just be the company protecting its IP.
Is it related to the thesurvivor2299.com website? That remains to be seen. Reddit users have traced the countdown code to a Polish web developer, Krzysztof Furtak. The code is available publicly under the GNU GPL license. Does this explain the presence of Polish variables in the code? Maybe. It doesn't explain, however, why the site was initially hosted on a Polish server or why a multimillion dollar gaming company would use a GPL code when they have enough web designers of their own. A strong dose of skepticism is recommended.
Stay tuned for more information.

Bethesda parent company Zenimax has filed a trademark application for "Void Engine Powered by Id Tech," suggesting the company has created an all-new game engine. The news comes as the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One are soon to be released, though it is unclear if the new engine is related to the next-generation systems.
The trademark application, filed November 8 with the United States Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO), covers "software game engine used to design and develop computer games," among other things. A Bethesda representative told GameSpot, "we don't really comment on trademark filings."
id Tech is the name of a series of game engines created by the Bethesda-owned id Software. The latest iteration, id Tech 5, is powering next-generation games like Wolfenstein: The New Order, The Evil Within, and Doom 4.
Unannounced but rumored upcoming Bethesda games include Fallout 4, potentially set in Boston, and a new project called Soulburst, which Bethesda trademarked this year.
CBS Corp. CEO Leslie Moonves is a member of the Zenimax board of directors.
Capaz deles finalmente terem a decência de pedir pra ID fazer uma engine decente pra Bethesda usar, porque Gamebryo é um estrume cujo unico lado bom é que Gamebryo é bom pra mods. É só. Não conheço UM jogo em Gamebryo que não seja ridiculamente pesado pro seu nivel gráfico, vide Civilization IV.
To achando que eles fizeram essa nova engine pro Elderscrolls Online (um MMO com Gamebryo seria ridiculo), e, aproveitando a deixa, jogaram pro Fallout 4.
Se eles mudarem de engine PRA VALER já vai melhorar minhas expectativas.
Fallout 4 provavelmente sai em 2015, pra competir na New Gen. E muitos doritos e mountain dew serão comidos e bebidos!
Ah, e na seção de comentários:
Fallout 3 was the best game I've ever played and New Vegas was a huge disappointment.
Bom cristo... :facepalm:
