Indeed, more creatures like that would be neat. I was going to suggest the Wanamingo but those are apparently extinct after Fallout 2. Geckos maybe?

Some new creatures are in Fallout 4. The big mosquitos are one and the queen mirelurks. Apparently centaurs were planned to be added, a pity as I like the design for them. There's also the mutant dolphins along the shore.

I do tend to think the limiting factor is the engine though, especially when I see the difficulty vertibird pilots have with flying around and the draw distance when your in one.

Ugh, fricken Wanamingos.  Totally kicked my ass.
Also apparently ghouls aren't immune to radiation in Tactics, just resistant.  They can get a rad-regeneration perk but it still irradiates them, kinda like in FO4 I guess.

Edit:  Ooh I hope they add those centaurs sometime, they look great.  They were a bit underwhelming in 3 and NV.

That is a very unique take on the centaur, that could have been an interesting encounter.

As for the above, please don't think I don't appreciate the increase in enemy types in F4, I just feel that if 'thesda had gone a little further they could have really created a more comprehensive east coast Fallout. But instead we get zombie apocalypse, with super mutants, molerats (which have no business in the northeast of America), radscorpions (which also have no business in northeast America, but can be reasonably explained by the fact that garden scorpions are present here), Deathclaws (again, they have no business in this part of the world) and some new stuff that doesn't get used enough.

[Mech#4]

What is some animals common to the east coast of America? Racoons and beavers maybe?

[NullForceOmega]

Raccoons, beavers, eagles, opossum, wolves, moose, hawks, foxes, boars, deer, it goes on and on.  I'm not really sure which ones would make interesting enemies (wolves are just as much canon as wild dogs tho', they were everywhere in F2), so I'm sure that more types of creatures could have been instituted, but maybe 'thesda was worried that without the classics the fans wouldn't be interested.

Edit: Owls, that could be a really awesome thing, mutant owls that attack only at night.  Lots of different varieties of snakes too.

More edit: Centipedes, millipedes, pillbugs, ticks, hornets, wasps, termites, praying mantis could be here too, moths, beetles, etc.

Even further edit: why do we have molerats, but not the cave rat?   Furred rats are very common in the northeast, so there isn't any reason I can think of that they aren't here.

Radracoon: a 10 foot tall man-eating racoon.

So a slightly larger racoon, or a slightly smaller bear?

The former.
With sunglasses. For that Rad look.

Not radcoon?

 God, was anyone else terrified the first time they came across the mutant hermit crab? In my case, it was probably because it was flying, but they are horrifying, and I know they look far toomuch like spiders for some people.

It gave me somewhat of a scare as well. Took many harpoons before it was slain, luckily though, Nick was around to distract it long enough.

[NullForceOmega]

The giant hermit crab was so awesome for me that I instantly forgave Bethesda for sucking.  That only lasted 'til I met DiMa and he tried to convince me that I was a synth.

Radracoon: a 10 foot tall man-eating racoon.

Not radcoon?

How about....10 foot killing machine?

[KingofstarrySkies]

We already have radiated bears, and those are godless killing machines.

[Bluexdog]

oh I know what Bethesda should add in fallout 4! Gary's!
