The RL is simply intended that way... and to be the most powerful weapon.

However, remote detonated rockets could have less damage (but must have the same radius!). Maybe the RL should have altogether less edge damage.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

Since when rl should be more powerful then nex? NO! Sniper guns were always more powerful then rocket launchers.

<Diablo> the nex is a "game modification"
<Diablo> quake1 never had a weapon like that.
<Vordreller> there was no need for anything over 4GB untill Vista came along

What did you mean? Div has already balanced crylink (at least in my opinion).

No, i was comparing not real guns but relative guns' power in other games. Sniper gun was always more powerful, but you need to learn to aim to get it useful (rail, sniper in ut, crossbow in hl), while rl lets you kill otherswith splash damage. This rambling of course had no sense, cause you already knew this.

shot for shot sniper in UT was fairly weak... 67 damage for body shot, 150 for headshot, rockets were 200 damage each, being able to stack 6 in one pack for 1200 damage, shock combo was somewhere around 480 damage, etc

Nerf the nex but not so much: more distance => less damage

It could be a good idea.

Iirv we've tried that a long ago (I mean: playtested that too). It's no fun :(
