Hmm it seems other people don't much like the new electro too, so I'll just fuel the discussion with some more gasoline by saying that I never really liked the "point and keep fire button pressed until frag" kind of weapons at all, which is also why I never use the MG in Nexuiz whenever I can avoid it. I liked the old electro very much actually, especially with the electro combo which was very tricky to do right (placing one ball where you think the opponent is going and then detonating it). In my opinion the electro was not at all too similar to the rocket launcher (c'mon, it was BLUE! right?), the rocket launcher was extremely useful for mid-air combat due to secondary detonation and too slow compared to the electro for ground combat (referring to the balance on DCC's plain delight).
But as stated before, this is most probably only a personal dislike which is then my problem rather than a bad weapon design.
