Anyone who thinks the graphics on Era are better then the ones on Graal X really need to open up some windows and compare the two, GX wins by a landslide.

For some reason you people are implying that by saying that GX graphics might look like eras that the GX graphics are not better than eras. I starting to think you guys aren't understanding artistic side of this situation. I see that a lot of the line art is very similar but at the same time these tiles go pass just line art. At the same time its hard think up a different way to draw up these tiles. But it sure isn't impossible and sure wouldn't take to much effort in thinking about it imo. Definitely not with things like google on the net.

Charlie and the fact that you said that you hate era, just made all your comments completely Bias.

That would be why I said, My appoligys if you weren't talking to me, And I only hate era now..I used to like it after they played the Manager version of Hot Potato, and the Reset, I found era rather boring.

Era hasn't updated their ****ing graphics for 5 years, and the only new graphics they get are the still-horribly new gfx guns, or new heads.

On the other hand, GX has made massive changes, such as custom bodies (Very sexy, might I add. Sad they are Icarus, or I would prop GX more then they deserve right now.), AMAZING tiles, just basically an amazing server.

If anything, I'd call GX's gameplay and ideas a bit like era, reminds me of it, since theres the toll wall, like eras water-walled island, southwhatever, I don't play Era ;(
Then they had the same style business system as Era, they probably still have it.

So yeah, they got awesome, no wait.. The GREATEST images for a modern server on graal, but crappy gameplay. PERIOD.

I'm not going to go off and say, blah blah, this is an Era rip, because that's not constructive. I'm just going to give my artistic input. I'm definitely not going to say one is better than the other either.

Whether it's intended or not, the tiles hold a very similar style to Era. The tiles have the same blurry, filtered, detailing that Era's has. For example, the sidewalk, which is hard, rough rock, has a blurry detail, just like Era's. The sidewalk is also nearly the same height as Era's, nearly up to the character's knees. All the different kind of things that can go on top of modern buildings, air conditioner units, piping, vents, and one of the two things is the smoke stack that Era has, and quite similar.

There's a lot of styles that could be done with a modern tileset, take a look at some of Tom's threads in the graphics section. Though it's not surprising to sit and see a server like Era for so long that you end up getting 'inspired' unconsciously, and it bleeds into your work. But the styles are similar, let's just say if the tiles were placed in Era, they wouldn't stand out too much.

Now if you're going to bite my head off for this, then meh, whatever.

Updates!

Graal X Living:

We are working on adding ideas that have never been done before, and we're moving along quite well. Graal X will have features such as the lower, middle, and upper class, economic policy, environmental safety, and the importance of financial stability. No, this doesn't mean it'll be all work and no play. Surprisingly, all of this will be more entertaining than it is tedious and bland.

Jobs: Start out by doing mini missions, fishing, deliveries, selling items (flowers/fruit/metal items/etc.), helping store owners create productivity, chopping wood, and many more.

Residency & Professional Grade Jobs: There are several business districts throughout the gmaps that allow players to get that professional feeling, like working in an office and interacting with businesses. For instance, if there's a large Electronics Store in one of the Mini-Mall Outlets on GX, you can work for the Base Company, also known as the Core Industry Building or Headquarters, and what you and everyone else does decides the future of the company store chain. This also allows for big bucks and living in high class Condo's or Mansions.

If you're poor, like everyone will be when they start playing, then you'll probably live somewhere around the lower class housing, which consists if store outlets and townhouses:



Quests: Graal X has developed ideas for quests that go beyond the usual "find the item the homeowner misplaced and you'll recieve a reward". One of the many ideas is Vigilante Missions offered for the player; a bounty hunt if you will:



This is just one of many other creative and unique ideas that is being put to test.

Player Interaction:

Just like the quest, we're going to try and make it where the player is able to duck behind certain things when in a gunfight, and when that object takes too many bullets, depending on what object you're ducking behind, it may eventualy wear away!

When you're walking along the city sidewalks you'll pass up Hot Dog Stands, Ice Cream Parlors, Newspaper Stands, and other things. Graal X is just trying to be as unique and creative as possible, and implement new ideas that no playerworld has done yet, while not getting too illogical and farfetch'd.

Hirings:
Graal X is still hiring all development positions. If you'd like to tryout for any staff position, feel free contact me! All my contacts are under my avatar. Thanks folks and i hope you enjoy everything we're trying to do!
