I suppose the 3rd option is what you're looking for.

before alpha starts crying that i'm the 'nex-king whore' or whatever let me state this.

I am happy to TRY new changes, but don't propose an new change and then expect everyone to vote before trying it out, which is still what this poll is encouraging.

Why doesn't someone ask someone to set up a server or ask on a server if the nex's setting can be changed to whatecer values? Test different values and reload times, e.g 100 dmg and slightly higher fire-rate, 70dmg and moderately increase fire-rate, and THEN allow people to try different settings with the nex first THEN put up a poll about changing it or keeping it the same?

If your worried about 'newbies' voting (this is too alpha) make your own thread and put the poll options in a thread and ask people to state in there post which option they have voted for, this way you know exactly who has voted and why.

For this reason i won't vote on this poll.

I don't mind this idea of reducing the nex damage, like a shock rifle weapon, but if you want a sniper rifle weapon as well people this is silly too me, why add another extra powerul weapon in just to use for 'long distances' if the nex was 'nerfed' and its firing speed reloaded it would be good for short or long distance use.

I agree with what Kojak has said. I dont mind trying out a nerfed version of the nex but splitting its function into two separate weapons isnt a good idea.
Possibly not the worst mapper in the world.

Camping Rifle is most of the times weaker than Nex:

- it shoots a fast projectile, so you need to lead your target
- you have to hit the head, or it only does moderate damage
- you have to compensate for gravity
- it takes 1/12th of the scarce bullets pickups
- every 12 shots it has to reload (this can be forced earlier by weapon switching)

It'll sure get a better looking model soon.

So - why change the Nex, if mappers can simply put a different item there if they wish so?

On the other hand, hitscan weapons are evil, as it is too easy to make a really accurate aimbot for them.
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.

I also agree with k0jak. First we should test and then decide. So far the third options sounds best for me, but without testing we can't know.

I absolutly hate the current refire rate. If that gets changed, I don't care about the nerfing.
