If you want to do the typical scum city full of rubbish, poor people, criminals and whatever else more, Port Zion (Deadman's Port) is your best option. Won't look like Fallout, but will follow the theme. Try to add buildings made of garbage and stuff like that. The entire city could be built around a scrapyard, and most people would work recycling whatever they find for food.
If you want something more "ruin", Tarsonis is your answer, since it's full of ruined buildings and the tileset in general looks devastated.
After some testing I think I'm going to use Tarsonis tileset. It is allover gray and "depressive" enough looking and cliffs, manmade and natural look real good. And that terraining excercise gave some ideas. Thanks for advice guys!
I would suggest, if possible, combine textures from multiple tilesets and tweak the lighting to slight red, brown and yellow tints, so the emphasis on deserted wasteland gets pronounced.
So your trying to make a ruined city then. Ok that sounds great. Where is your city supposed to be located? Tarsonis? Korhal? Mar Sara? Or even Tyrador? Then you need to decide which doodads fit best with the tileset you like the best. I would recommend as you seem to be pretty new to this, just like I am, to use doodads that work great with the Tarsonis tileset. There is a whole series of them that have Tarsonis in their names. Then there is the dust storm doodad and the fire doodad. There is an amazing youtube video that I just can't find right now of a showcase for an RPG with Tarsonis that would give you some ideas. It gives me a lot of bull when I try to look for it though.

I want to do somekind of ruined city to my map. (like Fallout3) What's good tileset for that purpose?
I'm also looking all kind stuff that inspires me to do that terrain great =)
Deadman's Port/Rock, Tarsonis or Korhal.
That. Textures from basically every tileset that has "Urban" or "Wasteland" behind its name should be interesting.
You might get some good inspiration here, also. http://forums.sc2mapster.com/development/terrain/7843-weekly-terraining-exercise-3-these-dead-streets/

Tyrador and Korhal don't fit the theme, imo.

Go play Antioch Chronicles Remastered!
Also, coming soon, Antioch Episode 3: Thoughts in Chaos!
Dont like mapster's ugly white? Try Mapster's Classic Skin!
I haven't done any custom lighting yet and I'm also noob on things such as fog so I'm going to do some learning about that subject.
Wondering is there any good doodads that fit for destroyed city? For example all kind road markers fit for non-destroyed enviroment.
@Terhonator: Go
