I hope you don't like UN any better. Especially because UN has cars, toys, paintball guns etc.

Anyway: I think it looks great. I could see this server being a big hit.
The sand tiles look fine, though desert tiles look a bit more cracky then those ones. I would say just darken the outline.
Overall I think it looks just fine.

problems:

ugly tiles, we will delve further into why your tileset looks like a steaming pile of garbage:

tile problem # 1: style- not a major factor but the style of the tile looks as if more that one person is working on it. If so I reccomend you start over again and have one person do the whole thing.

tile problem # 2: colors- maybe the most outstanding flaw in the screenshots in the that none of your colors go good together and are not easy on the eyes. I suggest you make up a general color scheme and stick with it.

tile problem #3: outlines: im sorry but those don't look like buildings to me (at all) I can harldy make out what is going on in the screen shots the only tiles I that arent eyesores are the ground and grass clump tiles. I cant really help you here I would just say use your mind when you create a tileset and think about perspective and basic shape.which brings us to problem numero dos:

which is the gun sprite which is way to large and dosnt resemble a gun very much. This server seems to be lacking in the graphics department so we will move on to a more complex problem:

Problem#3: theme and game play- first as this has already been stated there are 2 other western servers which all most likely basicly spawned from delphs western server a while ago. That means you have to compete with two other servers that have basicly the exact same concept and slightly better content. From what I have interpeted the server will be based around killing people and bounty hunters and sherrifs and gun fights which is basicly era a few decades back. A server has to be more complex than that.

In conclusion I don't have my hopes up for this server and don't see it becoming a phenomon since the sort who would play it already have era plus its competition with the other western servers.


hope this isnt too depresing for you but the truth hurts..

Well one of my questions are answered, TonyRivers can't read!!!! As been previously stated the tiles are already being redone (And you were wrong the tiles were done by one person only). Also stated in the first post the houses are being completely redone. Thanks for all the feedback, good or bad because it has helped us get along. We aquired a few scripters/GFXers with 2 gani'ers and are making some really nice surprises for everybody and ill post about it soon. Keep leaving feedback!

maybe you havnt learned what you post reflects your server. So why post crap screen shots if you are makign a brand new tileset since everybody is going to look at the screens and say this server sucks.

We weren't going to completely redo it until we got the feedback smarty. Prior to posting we got complements from PS, Jinx, Protagonist, and a few others so we wanted to see what everbody else though.

I personally do not think any advice you can give me would help me out at all.

Hi I work for Ricochet and would like to comment to you TonyRivers. He actually took your advice and is re-doing the tileset and taking everybody's advice. You need to chill out. Don't start flaming me please.
