Agreed, the only true way to finally balance this is to play them on both types of maps, and play a lot with them in all game modes. Then we can finally reach a consensus and see which weapon is worthless in what situations and the ones that shine.
As I repeated numerous times balancing a weapon through numbers is not a good idea, some weapons can be used to finish up an opponent after other weapons give the blunt of the blow, a needle after a club, while the maps themselves matter in other cases, one weapon shines above the rest on one map, whereas it's total crap on another also player weapon preference destroys numbers, you get the twich happy nexuiz guys on the game and they will always try to use that weapon, mortar, electro and sometimes rocket launcher whereas they won't even look at other weapons. Games must be played and they should be played on equal skill levels, avoiding 40 - 0 games as much as possible and balance changed after how weapons feel, useful or not in their respectable situations.
