Opinion: Tileset

[Tim_Rocks]

Tileset for Era Dev, possible update: Sidewalk and street tiles...

Which do you prefer? Why do you like it? Why don't you like it?

(no, I did not make the tiles, I simply want to implement this into the current dev tileset if this is something players would like. Also, with the first image, the tiles will look a little nicer online, they're low quality... It's the only way to get them to display in the offline editor.)

I like the one with MORE DETAIL (The one of the right)

That's not detail, that's noise. I like the first one. It's about time for some new tiles on Era.

I agree with Crow. The one on the left looks much smoother.

The tiles on the right are the ones we have now, no? They're not bad in themselves, but my opinion remains.

Hahahaha always hated those noisy structures on the tileset... when I worked for Era, I tried chaning that all, but the Era-people arn't really tolerant when it comes to changes lol... poor population

fortunately you have your own server to tend to and a flourishing population to cultivate as a result of your innovation.

how many players you got online right now, anyway?

I like the first one tbh

He still makes a valid point. I worked for Zodiac and players seem to hate change, even if for the better. And this was Zodiac.

Are you seriously calling him out for not having his own server with lots of players, just because he said Era's graphics look horrible(and they do), and that the players hate change(and they do)?

Left one, definitely

Zodiac is moving definitely in the right direction with their changes..
It's just how they went about them that bugged me (and a bunch of others).

Instead of doing everything and testing it, they just implement crap and on the server like zodiac it leads to half the players having to reset their levels or skills or even buy new gear every week they decide to change something.

Fixing one seemingly 'overpowered' char leads to 2-3 more.

I spent about a month gathering gear for my Assassin because it was a pretty dominant class with the right gear and skill-set. I ended up having to char-reset and improvise skill sets like 5 times because they kept editing the crap, most of it because they did something as simple as move ONE skill, it would cost you 800k to creset and re-buy everything, then 2 hours to cmp. It became a hassle so I quit until it was back to an equilibrium.

-------

As far as Era goes, and the OP... I prefer the tiles on the left, which I recall using on Dev when Chris was manager. It looks much better, however, in the long run it leaves more room for error and seeing how slowly things got on dev (bunch of people fired) it would be too much of a hassle to add correctly.
(All the corners, sidewalk outlines, cross-walks, inevitable tile errors)
Not to mention some of the tiles themselves have small errors (grass-sidewalk corners).

Bet your ass I am. I'm going to get on anyone who passes judgement on something when they can't do any better themselves.

Graal's graphics are horrible. As far as in relation to the game, Era's graphics are different, as they should be.

In other news, somebody's been menstruating on the tileset. Who's call was this?
