With the rumors swiriling about Fallout 4...?

Question

I was just wondering if anyone had any opinions on what they should do to make the perfect fallout. Here's my opinion:
1. YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO CONTINUE AFTER BEATING THE GAME
If I beat one more Fallout game where it ends after you beat it, I quit. This is a given and I'm pretty sure every fan wants this
2. Needs an interesting region.
Although the DC Wasteland was marvelous, the Mojave Wasteland bored the hell out of me. I never felt the urge to explore because everything looked and felt the same. I think they need a big, interesting region and I had a few ideas:
     -New York City- Lots of landmarks and I think it would be fun to explore the city and see all the cool places (Central Park Crater anyone) and there's lots of room for interesting factions (a faction that lives on Broadway and sings everything would be hilarious) and crazy religions (Atlas statue worshipped as a God?). 
     -New England- Although I've heard rumors about Boston, I don't think that there is enough up there for this to not feel like an extension of Point Lookout
      - Florida- How awesome would it be tow walk around the remains of Disney World and Universal (This game would be GOTY just for having Mickey Mouse armor). Also, as Oasis in Fallout 3 showed, this game can look really good, and the Nukes dropped long enough before that not EVERYTHING has to look like a destroyed pile of trash and Florida's landscape would look stunning
      -Northwestern America- exploring the lush forests of Washington and the great Urban environments of Seattle and LA would be sweet, plus it would be cool to revisit the roots of Fallout's original games
3. Add more songs to the Radio Stations
I love the music in Fallout more than anyone I know, but I should be able to have one sitting without hearing Johnny Guitar and Big Iron five times each. Don't change the genre but add some variety
4.Mix the choice of New Vegas with the Storytelling of Fallout 3
My favorite part of New Vegas was you could play the game ten times and never do the same exact thing. However, the story was weak to say the least. I would want to choose who I side with while also being engaged in a great story. If anyone can pull that off, it's Bethesda
5. Lastly, (and most importantly), DO NOT MAKE AN MMO
What I love about Bethesda games in general is it's MY world and it's different than anyone else's. I don't want to share and have other people there. Otherwise your decisions don't mean anything. If I want to blow up Megaton I'll do it, if I want to send some crazy ghoul lunatics into space then I will, but don't put me in an uninteractive environment like World of Warcraft  and say everything is okay. I want my decisions to be mine and yours to be yours.

Just my opinions but leave feedback in the answers and thanks for sticking through this monster question

Last popular rumor regarding Fallout 4 was that it was going to be set in Boston. The reason for this is that Bethesda area mappers and researchers were spotted taking pictures and looking around Boston early last year.

Bethesda did something similar as well for Fallout 3. It's also possible that this was information gathering and not related at all to the location for the next game, but it does look like a strong candidate.

Prior to this rumor, San Francisco was also a top contender after a rather convincing teaser was leak onto Youtube (was proved to be a hoax, but it did have allot of people fooled.)

Personally I would like to see a Fallout game set in Seattle. Would be funny to see Mock Microsoft headquarters in ruins (similar to how they did Bethesda's offices in FO3.) Also, being so close to the border, there could also somehow work in the Alaskan invasion angle into the mix.

Regardless of where it is set, I really hope they don't make it as bland looking as Fallout 3. Don't get me wrong, I loved it, but I found it so boring to look at sometimes. Look, grey rubble building to the left, grey rubble building to the right, landmine, grey rubble petshop ....... etc. While the Mojave wasteland wasn't that interesting, at least it look nice visually. New Vegas looked alive and vibrant.

I want to see the next Fallout game set in a place where they have rebuilt to the point of almost normality, but still, traces of the apocalypse are to bee seen on the outskirts. I want to see a Fallout game were all the efforts from Fallout 1 - 3 (and spin off titles) are seen.
