Nexus Ego

[Lovetone]

tbh i dunno how it can be lighter and any faster and id be bankrupt due to paintbill...

i hope the ego 2 is a cut down cheap version like an ion
then it wont ruin the resale of everoyne elses egos and make me think planet are twats like WDP

You need to accept that product development is a part of any technology based sport and if you want the latest kit you will always loose money.

To quote Kenobi, who is the more foolish? The fool or the fool who follows him?

If you are happy with what you have and don't want to loose money - don't sell it! Just use it to shoot people with!

my other idea was stock ego, new milling pattern with star frame as standard maybe....

then again all teh nexoids seem to be selling their egos

that blue one, the spec ops one....worrying..if nexus are changing guns it means something new maybe

gutted if so

anyone want an ego for 37p?
star frame, star frm, dart bolt, etc

EDIT to ben, see what your saying
gotta wonder where the apex of design will crash in creating a marker capable of shooting 30bps with no kick and comfortable for everyone. DYE seems to just shave 1/2 inch off the marker each year. not exactly pioneering (i know im generalising) lol

I think it happened a couple of years ago mate. They are all just refinements now, no quantum leaps since eyes and pds was introduced as far as I am concerned...

They just get a little bit lighter now or a little bit smaller.

If you like your gun stick with it, there is always going to be something out there newer, but not necessarily better.

I seem to remember the Planet crew also denying any Nexus Ego for a while too

Answering the plato. I think it hit with the 2k2 Timmy after the WAS board.

Really little difference in internals between that and the modern timmy, and every gun nowadays is as much of a muchness.

First off I am a MASSIVE fan of anything Planet.....but we have already seen WDP like tendancies from Planet with the EBlade.
Lest we forget the Original EBlade, then the Nexus EBlade, then the Directors Cut, then the Factory and Pro Editions, and then all the E2 editions !!!

Simply put these companies are only supplying to consumer demand !

I still have my original E1 bought in March 2002, with a few upgrades

Simple, don't want it, can't afford it, don't buy it.

The improvements WDP have made since the A4 Fly are subtle, but each one makes the marker slightly nicer to use. I have and use A4Fly, 05 Speed, G7 and 06 Speeds. Now in my opinion the 06 Speed is the nicest to use but its marginal.

Planet have the Ego and Nexus, XSV, Mantis are only better looking ones. A lot of people buy a stock Ego and want to immediately get the body kits, new triggers, frames. If they want to , let them.

If you buy a car, do you have a choice of one or are there several models. Do you moan every six months when they bring out a new reg and your wheels are worth slightly less?

Rant over.
