You're actually pretty much out of luck. The reason is simple. Xonotic is not Nexuiz 3.0!
While a general idea is taken from Nexuiz, the majority of ppl behind Xonotic want to make it attractive to new player, reduce learning curve in many of gameplay aspects and reduce unbalance between veteran players and average players. This is atleast how I understand the motivation behind all the gameplay changes.
While rocket flying is a lot harder now, gamemodes which promoted that idea (like CTF) will finally require teamplay to capture (+1 for that).
