Ol West Discussion

Hello, I'm very addicted to the most recent game of graal. Let me explain you what is Ol West for me and the basics, and why is a very good game;
I will leave you all the basics and explanations on a spoiler, if you already know what is it go ahead and continue reading

Explanation and basic of Ol West;
Ol West is a game starting on the old times, when all those cherrif and indians take actions.
Ol west is very similar to Era. You can do whatever you want on iEra and if you get bored Ol West is there for you.
Ol west doesn't got lag, which means there aren't screen freezes, or any of a gameplay disturb.
And if you're wondering if you need money for having advantage the answer is "no". There is not pay2win there, which it means that the jobs are VERY easy, the guns are cheap, but at the same time it takes time to get the best gun on the game.
The administration there is very good. No one abuses powers. All the admins answer your questions. And events are hosted frequently.
HS (That is the "EC" on Ol West) is not given away for free. You can earn them just by winning events. But don't worry! There is a lot of items to save, and all of them are cheap enough!
If you're looking for basing, pking or sparring, west is your buddy! No matter the gun, it's always fun!
Also the tiles over there is awesome. You should check it and see it for yourself.
Ol west is just Era but improved. More neat. Less amounts of glitches and also the community there is awesome!

Well, the reason I made this thread is to discuss about Ol West, because right now there aren't any forums about this game, and the Graalians sub-forums for it seems very poor. So I would like to stay this as an official thread of Ol West, since there aren't such threads about it (Just threads talking about the launching of it).

So, what do you think of Ol West?
It's a nice game?

Its alright, guns are less powerful and more balanced, making it better than Era in that respect, but the map is boring to me and few players play it compared to Era, making it harder to PK and such. Its alright, I still prefer to play Era, idk why.

I like ol west being a smaller brother to the others. That means it can keep a smaller (better) experience. Also, they should leave ol west with the old ideas of era. No fb upload stuff, no job nerfing, and no overpriced weapons.

Ol west is a great gamr. I absolutely love it. One thing that really annoyes me though is the op hs melee....

I was the first player of Ol'West and I get to test it out first
It was a really good game, and way more ez to play

But I quitted OW

I like Ol West a lot since is balanced. No one got an advantage. No one.
Anyways.. Is someone going to GST? I am making my team already :3

Ol west feels like era 2011 to me, I enjoy it, but still era has had a bigger impact on me.

Ol' west is very balanced with its weapons and food timer. But it's low player count and generally slower combat kept me from staying on west for long. If west had a weapon standard that met like...$30k or so tier guns in Era plus had equal movement speed then I could see myself playing more for combat.

I will :)

They're stealing a lot of ideas from classic and era though, i just feel like it's making their game boring. They should come up with new stuff and original ideas.

Very true, Each graal game is unique in its own way, except for ol west. There does not seem to be any uniqueness except for slower guns and being able to shoot while using a mode of transport (horse).

Ol West is a great game, but ammo and insects are hard to get, and a lot of players are quickly bored of it. Some ideas to improve :

-Remove bandits and Indians or fix them, cuz they are too OP, these ****s;
-Make a day-night switch every 20 minutes, then every 20 minutes, Indians and Bandits can be replaced by zombies and Ghosts (they attack like the Angry noobs in Era);
-At every 200 bandits killed, we get a prize, like an horseshoeor 1000 gralats, and more rewards if they are zombies and Ghosts. I mean, for now, they are extremely useless, they're here just to 360nuscup us;
-Make horseshoes easier to make, like achievements, FB picture things, more stuff like this, because I'm sick of these people glitching in events;
-And finally, make an underground map. I miss the mines in Deltaria.

It's like iEra but more neat.

Indeed it doesn't got. If you're lagging on Ol West then you're wifi is working like sht.

I'm level 60 on mining! :0

Just my personal opinion on this topic.
I don't think OW is really "stealing" any ideas. I mean they got to stick with their theme of guns and bows, mounts and farms, etc. It's the old west. b: Aha. Plus a lot of ideas come from other ideas and are usually mixed around until a new formula is given. Not saying all ideas are like this doe.

Hell there's similarities in all the servers. There are differences and similarities in both the servers of course, they both have mining but they each do mining in a different way. I mean the ideas of bug catching and mining and such, deals with doing the jobs in a different way. (Catching the bugs in a jar, mining actual minerals, etc.)

The guns are slower and less whatever for a reason. To keep the game more balanced, thank goodness for that. Food has also changed, so that you can't spam healing yourself. Whereas iEra has increased in such a population that the demand was to get the best gun you could get, and spam the crap out of everything. Everywhere you go there's just bullet spam and there really isn't much skill you can find on here anymore. iEra, it's like, how the hell do you even make money anymore. Lol.

Well here's my list of Pros and Cons for OW:
Pros:
-Balanced guns
-Easy money
-No spam of food
-Easier to base, but still challenging to hold

Cons:
-No 15 seconds of chasing someone into a building and being able to kill them within that time limit
-Not many people online to PK
-Not many people to spar with

Feel free to add to the list. These were just a few from the top of my mind.

I agree with the Cons. This server should have more people, it would be awesome. This game is a lot more balanced that Era.

Many players say "Ew, dude Ol'West sucks".
These players say
-Its laggy
-Its a knock off of Era
-Too hard
Ok, the reason is, that many players spend tons of itunes, and become OP in graal. There so used to the fact of having BAR, and winning. While in Ol'West, you cant certainly kill everyone so easy.
And No, its not laggy. I experience no Lag. Unless I'm playing on my Ipod 3rd gen. This game is extremely easy. Certainly a lot more easier than Graal Era.
It's Ol'West. Like the saying, "Dont judge a book by it's covers". Keep playing, try to understand the game. And it just becomes amazing. Trust me.
