Hi everyone. Ok i know the test release is out, the official release should be out soon. Now as soon as it comes out there will be ppl posting in the forums what they dont like and what needs to be fixed and this and that.

Now: this post is here to post what you do like about nexuiz (the latest one) and what you enjoy about playing nexuiz. It can be some bug the developer fixed and now you fly higher or run faster. Can be something bout gameplay. Anything that you like about nexuiz 2.0 plz post here.

Guys the developers and co have been working hard at this release and im very impressed how its been turning out. Lets give them something back. And i hope this post helps.

So from me thanx guys for all the hard work. What I like about the new nexuiz is this. Much less laggier, which means more ppl will play my side. Gameplay is much smoother. Graphics are better. And when you die and get blown up into bits you can see your heart still pumping. hehe.

I like that i can now actually run it.
The Campaign is nice too.

I hate the current mortar sound.

I that I can't make Nexuiz run properly no matter what I do.

I hate that the shotgun kicks you around so damn much.

I hate that the shotgun secondary does enough damage for a one hit kill.

I hate the Nex.

off topic??

anyway i have to go to sleep now but just wanted to say that the electro absolutely rocks!

I like that the bots don't kill your CPU anymore. I used to get lagged with just 3 - today I added 7 and had framerates consistently around 150.

I like the new version.

I like:

The movement.

The new maps.


I Dislike:

the mortar secondary sound...sounds like im playing tiddly winks with ball bearings...

shotgun POWER...what the hell at amount of times i died with say rocket launcher against a shotgunner, with 100 health + 50ish armour...

All the weopens seem really REALLY over-powered or its just me...

..it doesnt matter whether i have a good weopen or not half the time, although this only really counts when you go over 4-5 people, but still, you need like 600 armour to survive 2 people shotgunning you

Yeah, i dont like it either. Its way too overpowered.

But, it's here to stay.

The mortar seems like it has been tremendously buffed.

All weapons seem a bit overpowered, but they were like it in 1.5
The shotty seems stronger though, yet I liked the old better. (1.0ish that is)
The hager, which was my favorite weapon in 1.0, shit the bed in later versions, came back awesome in 1.5 and now it seems like it shit the bed a bit again. Please give me my hager back

Electro is phenomenal, it's not easy to use, but it's fun as hell. While I've seen plenty of people spaming with it, I'm starting to be good at trigering their secondary balls to kill them, not me

Also, what is the mortar shooting...empty cola cans? If thats not the case, sound would need some fixing.
Movement will take some time to get used to since it's miles different from what nex used to be, but it seems for the better.

That's all for now,
phreakin' aye
*EDIT*
I see nothing different with the nex?! It seems like bad new 1.5 nex to me.

lol...shooting empty cola cans...perfect description.

One of my biggest let downs is the lack of official CTF maps. I wouldn't mind even if just some of the old DM maps were reworked slightly for CTF, I just wanna play it!

Other than that, the game's wonderful. Whatever voodoo they did for antilag is working wonders. I can play on a ~200 ping server (which, sadly, living in the states, are the only servers that get activity) and not feel the lag real bad. Also, spec mode being smooth is a big plus - no jerking around anymore. The menu and loading screen are really solid, after looking kind of. . . not very good in 1.5. They both fit the style of the game AND look really really good in the process, so I'd say they're keepers. Graphics are beautiful, bots are a lot better AND do less CPU damage, the new maps are really well-done. Nex 2.0 is definitely something that I'd put up to battle a commercially released game. . . well, maybe I'd hold off until it got some more CTF maps! But oh well. Great job, guys

Some of you guys missed the point of this thread , especially kozak6 over there. PPL plz post here what you like about nexuiz 2.0 what do you like.

I dont care what you hate, everyone wont like something. But after all the hard work the guys put into this game i think they want to hear how we like the game. Constructive criticism can go elsewhere.

If there nothing you like in the game , plz dont post here. If you like something in the game , this is where to post.

I hope i explained bit better now.

BTW i really love the game overall. There alot of fixes etc and it runs really really well now.

I like:
Changeable crosshair color (it doesn't matter what skin you have)
You can disable gibs
Demos menu
Voteable brightskins
New physics
New maps
New gamemode (arena) and mutators (nixnex and cloak (well, I havn't tested those yet))
I like the efforts made in writting Docs
And say escapes! say %l - for example - tells your location in the map to the other players

Comments on the response:
I must say that most negative response I have read this far has nothing todo with the Nexuiz 2.0 version.
I have read many complains about the shotgun, Rocket Launcher and Nex. But those guns is untouched from 1.5 (maybe even 1.2.1)!
Someone writes that all weapon is over powered, they are not.
And the Nex is not made to hit easier in 2.0 (and not in 1.5 either except for the fix of aimbug). It must be an effect of better fps and better netcode that you can hit more and do more damage (and maybe the server use g_antilag 1).

I couldn't play 1.5. It ran too poorly on my machine.

Yeah i also do not get those remarks about the guns, most of them have not changed and the two that have are obvious. I think i like about the same things as morfar plus the cool new graphics. It will be really interesting to see how the maps 'change' with the new physics and how players adapt to it.
Kozak: have you changed you hardware latly or do you still have the same?

Well, I have 512 more ram, which brings it up to just under a gig.

That's it. Of course, I did have my pc in for repairs, and I have no idea what they really did. The processor speed is misreported, for example. I don't know if it is supposed to do that, or if they screwed me over and are laughing at me right now, or what.

I did try 1.5 with it, though, and it still didn't run well.

1.6 runs better, but my framerate is extremely erratic. My framerate varies between 20-200 all on the same map, and sometimes it feels like it drops lower than it reports.

I like the fact that 2.0 runs far better on weaker PCs. On my Girfriend's rig framerates quite constantly 40 to 50fps where it ran 20 to 25fps with the same settings in 1.5

I like the new demo menue! Cool!

And I love the electro's secondary fire

the spectating.. i looove the spectating

and the server is awesome.. my ladder server uses 8% mem (of 1G) thats the same as before.. but with 2 player is usts 0.0% (!!!!) CPU.

Nexuiz 2.0 has a few nice things:

Yellow team works again !!!!
Dedicated server exe is back
New map/s (that i havent tired out yet)


Bad things:

When picking up Quad it lags like a cow , frame rate drops 40 fps when picking quad up , once it runs out , frame rate picks up

Grapple hook is utter crap now , it should not be a damm swinging thing
Please fix that asap !

Wow!
I haven't played Nexuiz since the 1.0 days (at least not regular) and downloaded the 2.0 now. The improvements are awesome!
I LOVE minstagib (maybe just because I'm good at it)! Played it at least an hour per day.

-Some of the new maps are just incredible. I can't wait to play some 1on1 on them.
-The game runs much faster.
-Map-loading is faster.
-Spectating!
-Proper dueling (like fullbrights, votable stuff)

Is there a feature like server-side demo recording? Or automatic client-side demo recording?

I registered for the ladder too, you are welcome to challenge me
Thanks for this nice game!

Neither server side nor automatic recording, that was removed because of being buggy shortly before 2.0. A workaround might be found here: http://www.forums.alientrap.local/viewtopic.php?p=92#92

just downloaded nex2 and played some maps...

WOW I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT!!!

i'm impressed by the shiny look and the wonderful new maps, the castle one is FANTASTIC.. and the arena gamemode is interesting too..

guyz.. many many tnx for the good work

A NEW thing I love about Nex:
The hotfix-PK3 files:
keeps the game up-to date with minimal work for the players. No patch files, no new version, just a small file to insert in the data directory. Great
( the fixed bugs are great as well of course )

i definitely dont like the default setting for yielding damage thru walls

it MUST be ON by default, plz...

but i still love this game

Actually all quake-based games have this 'feature'. The only thing are changes to the engine.. in that case you have to replace it. But content can be corrected via .pk3 files.

Well i actually like the whole Nexuiz 2.0! Did even donate again
