So camping with a nex = good, using nex in combos = bad... Err. What exactly are you smoking. wanna share some of that?

This isn't what i said, your either being completely ignorant and/or purposely missinterperating what I wrote.

I won't bother to reply to such replies in the future.

I thought kojn wants the camping rifle to become a sniping weapon.

Making the nex fire faster would make it exactly like the camping rifle. Instead of removing one of them, why not provide the alternative?

you just run the risk of this becoming the third rebalance attempt in a row to never see the light of day.

If players wish so, we stick to the Nexuiz 2.5 balance.
("we" as in the community, developers, players)

Poll results suggest otherwise, but maybe that's because many haven't been able to participate in testing, and many players aren't even active on the forum (how do they expect the developers to have any clue WHAT kind of balance they want then?)

Flying_Steel I did indeed ask for the camping rifle to have some changes done to it, it's really easy to use actually/aim, the nex seems better suited at the moment, because of this 'stickness', think it was Halogene who gave it that name which means it isn't used all the time due to it's less effectiveness close quarters, I know for a fact I would run around with the sniper (camping rifle) all the time if I had it and use it in long and close range fights, I mean sure we can try it on Sunday in the game replacing the nex with it and see how people find it whether they think it's too strong, used too much etc, no problem with doing that, but it may turn out to be too strong as it currently is so we would need to tweak it, and obviously see if people like using it, this is important.

Also, headshot's are not as hard to hit/take skill as you might think. ( Either that, or I just am aiming higher then most other people ).

I also am confused with what you want to do with the nex to make it 'fixed', the 'stickyness' doesn't fix anything, all it does it basically allowing for the animation to finish, which in such makes using it all the time less effective when your close that's all, I don't see how it'll promote people camping, if they want too, they will do, it'll promote the weapon being used less up close unless your prepared to fire a shot off and wait for (stickyness/animtime), or fire 2 shots or more.

It'll already helps simplify this 'problem' you speak of, of the nex being too useful in every situation, it was never put in purposely as far as i'm aware, it was always like that since I tried it in XPM a while ago..also, ask FrutieX how much I bitched about it before I took things into consideration.

Stickyness is the wrong word to use, it's the animation time, like Halogene said if there was something to show on the weapon that it was reloading/or/when it's ready to shoot again you'd know when you could swap to another weapon, personally I don't have trouble but I can imagine some will without some kind of colour change to show they can shoot again or swap weapon.

Also I find it highly critical you comment on that, I thought you hadn't even compiled xonotic yet?? And I thought you were a believer of making this weapon less used all the time, If I'm wrong on the compiling part I apologise.
