Personally I like all styles, as they offer a lil variety and different elements all of which rock. My fav though would have to be 'Swat / Police' simulation as it is something I can envision in real life.

Basically I like picking up a gun like a colt and thinking, i know this weapon, and then blasting some human to bits! It just is not the same popping some alien, besides they are usually lots larger and tougher and my feeble self just needs to go after the lil easy human enemies to pick off!

I feel the same way, I like all the styles and each of there own features makes them fun to play. I do have to say though i like the marines and aliens scenario the most, i mean Natural Selection what else is there to be said...

I just like anything that's pretty far removed from the original game :). Not just something that adds 2 new weapons and a player skin...

NO MORE REALISM MODS there are so many in development... the mod makers should start something more fresh. Thats just my wish, I know he won`t become true :P

I think a multi option poll would have been much better.
Personally, I voted for the realistic mods, because that’s what I play the most, but I am waiting (for ages) for HL Rally, Natural Selection, and… more WormsHL ;) to give only one example from each of my other choices.

P.S. Action/Beat-em-up titles seem to be missing from the poll. Max Payne: Kung Fu, anyone?

the next poll will allow you to select the gameplay type you adore the most, i.e. realism

Personally though I dun really like realism, I like fast crazy paced gameplay, because the minute you incorporate realistic damage, people are forced to think up strategies so that they survive, hence slowing gameplay down considerably.. :)

Want *more* realism mods? Are you kidding? You must be playing Commander Keen, 'cause on every other engine, everybody and his grandmother has made a realism mod. I can think of 3 hardcore realism mods offhand for UT, and I don't even play any.

If you're disappointed with insufficient realism in existing mods, play INF for UT. Its the most hardcore realistic mod out there - otherwise play Tom Clancy games. Come on, there's the counterstrike clones, INF, the Action games (action Q2 and reaction Q3), the warfare games (day of defeat, etc)... if you want more, you haven't been looking.

Meanwhile, vehicular games are damn tough to find. They're always a damn shame - people pick them up and **** themselves with joy when playing them, but would never think to try them if they weren't pushed into it.

Recommendations for those who don't know what I'm talking about:
HL Turbo - you'll get bored of it after a few hours, but those will be the best few hours of gameplay you'll ever have
StrangeLove2 (UT) - who would've thought replacing the Redeemer with a ride-on rocket would be such a massive change - the best rider-gunner system I've ever played too.
NeoCairo 5.2 (UT) - yes, the physics suck. Doesn't matter though - I haven't played many other games where you can run around with a gun and then hop into a fscking *giant robot*, hovercraft, powersuit, or jet fighter.
AirFight UT - Jet fighers, Tanks, Choppers, etc. All very realistic too, perfect for you armchair generals out there who love the realism mods.

Its such a shame - everybody loved that half-assed jeep that was in CounterStrike for like 5 minutes, but hardly anyone really runs with the concept. Maybe I should give up and play Tribes.

Anybody notice the disproportionate number of HL mods on this site?

I believe it is to difficult to deciede, as it is not just what the mod is based on, it's how the mod looks and plays that determines how good it is.

I love medieval/fantasy mods...something there isn't nearly enough of. You should be ashamed for not including that in the poll :)

You guys complained a bit back that there weren't enough realistic mods (which i doubt....)...well anyway, the mod I'm working on, Communist Aggression, is pretty close to reality, but we changed the story line accordingly. Its a quite good story. If anyone's interested, just check out the mod here on moddb.com.
