Heh, well dance is an official map now so an official balance should take its own maps into consideration, methinks. The official xonotic maps are mostly open in general too.
More importantly, you can't blame the maps, because people don't have to play them. But they choose to play and vote for them over and over, more and more; open maps are extremely popular to the point that they are almost all there is, at least in CTF. Ignoring this trend cannot lead to good things, imo.
And if laser jumping is still too powerful, then that should be handled by rebalancing the laser, not the nex.
Quote:And its the only useful super long range weapon and half the maps out right now have super wide open spaces which makes people only use the nex.
Then it's time to pull the nex back a bit at ranged fighting and make other weapons of the arsenal more long range focused.
