community feelings

Pretty much what all that atheros said.

No game you're going to try is going to feel "better" to you than a game you're playing 20 hours a week for the past 2 years, it'll feel different and you'll miss things and features that you're used to. Xonotic is like any other new game you'd hear about and might want to give it a try, except people have misconceptions about it being an upgrade to Nexuiz and are let down because it's too different. It's a new game. Xonotic is still early in development and is still using a lot of stuff from Nexuiz because it's simply easier than to start from scratch.

I don't know if you ever met players coming from other games that were giving Nexuiz a try and thought it was crap compared to the game they're coming from (Q3, UT, whatever), I'm sure you found that annoying, right? Well this is the same thing happening here. If you're just going to suggest that it should be like nexuiz, what is the point? Nexuiz is still there. You're not going connecting to a Quakelive server and telling people "well, the physics are dumb, they should be like Nexuiz and it needs a laser", are you? No, you either play long enough to get used to it or you decide for yourself if you like it or not. You don't play a new game 10 minutes and expect to be perfectly at ease with everything about it.

Also, Xonotic is only at 0.1, of course it's buggy and has issues. That's why they're asking for feedback.
