I'm a tiny bit against the current nex charging mechanics too: why cant it just charge up once and leave it charged as it is? (until you shoot it of course) 90 damage and a little buzzling sound so we know its charged and people hear us approaching. It could consume 10 ammo as exchange.
People in close range intensive fight will use nex like Shock Rifle anyways, but on the other part at least moving around with a charged nex wouldnt be as frustrating as it is now. It just completely draws the attention, or maybe its just me, but I find it really frustrating, that I have to keep watching that circle around the crosshair while moving around to maintain full charge just for one hit-or-miss shot.

I assure you, FraNcoTirAdoR, that you will very quickly get this into your cerebellum. This is just the sort of thing that, once you played a little, becomes part of your "instinctive" playing techniques, you'll do it without even noticing. Of course, at first you need to check every now and then on the charging status of the Nex, but after a while you won't need to pay any attention to it as your cerebellum does it for you.

I haven't played much yet, but I can say I don't really knowingly charge the nex anymore, it just happens the moment I get the gun. And I don't think my cerebellum is a quick learner :oP


As for the "detonate rockets with mortar right in your face" I agree with tZork that this was part of gameplay tactics (at least it was for me). It was difficult but rewarding to do, and made using the rocket launcher more challenging depending on what the opponent is equipped with. I think it added to the tactical aspect of gameplay.
