More Zombie Mods for HL2 i don't like them they need newer game play elements something fresh from the Zombie oven.
Also FPS/RTS games are great too!
so are Puzzles too! I'm split on the vote.

IF ANYTHING, less zombie mods goddamit!!!! zombies are dumb i guess thats why because theyre easy to spawn and brute force players = instant fanbase success.
10 years ago we had intelligence in our "zombie gameplay" (Borg)

Zombies got over-used and abused. That's why they feel boring. I mean I didn't find them boring in STALKER. Or in 28 days later. Or in I am legend. As long as each zombie mod brings something unique, it'll be more than ok. When mods/games/movies however start to look alike, this is when people get fed up with zombies.

It was a very tough decision. But I went with RPG. Though to be honest it is more that I want more single player mods that have great storylines to play through. I am not much of a multi-player person.

Thirding this. Storylines are what makes or breaks a game or mod, cool gameplay can only be fun for so long.

More FPS? How but leaving a little room for something non-FPS? How about a poll for favorite types?

I want more "options for this poll".

Poll fails with 4, extremely limited options and no 'Other'.

What about:
- Platformer?
- Sneak-'em-up
- Adventure? (!!!!!!!)
- Sim?
- Racer?
- Turn-based Strategy?
- Fighter?
- Third-person shooter?
- Survival-horror?
- Rhythm?
- Sports?

What about single-player versus multiplayer versus co-op?

This gives a very skewed representation of the inventiveness that modders are capable of.

This is just delving deeper into the categorization tree. You can have an FPS stealth mod, for example. I wanted to keep the poll simple.

Adventure != First-Person Shooter

If anything 'Shooter' is the genre and 'FPS' is a subgenre of the Shooter genre (played from a specific perspective). Other subgenres would be Shoot-'em-up, sidescroller, rail shooter, run-and-gun shooter and Third-Person Shooter. "Thief" is not a first-person shooter, it's a first-person sneak-em-up/stealth game.

Realtime Strategy is a subgenre of 'Strategy', etc.

You completely left out the 'Adventure' and 'Sim' genres (among others). This creates a very limiting and biased poll that steers readers towards very narrow choices and therefore a very narrow overall view of 'what people want more of'. Any results are inconclusive because they only reflect which of the small selection of choices is preferred. The title of the poll may as well be "Which of these already popular genres and subgenres would you prefer to see even more mods for?".

To illustrate this point below is a list of mod releases/updates featured on the Moddb in the last 2 months that don't fall into any of the four categories you gave in the poll:

- Moddb.com
- Moddb.com
- Moddb.com
- Moddb.com
- Moddb.com

Personally I'd like to see more of everything NOT on that poll.

Yeah, sorry for the aggressiveness in the first post, but polls that don't allow voters to truly express themselves are a pet hate of mine. Polls, at the very minimum, should always have an 'Other' option to cater for all opinions, otherwise they risk being dictatorial.

Obviously if the poll above were for a studio that had released 4 different titles (an FPS, RTS, RPG and a Puzzle game), and was entitled "Which genre should our next game be?", it would be fine to limit to those options. But Moddb isn't about imposing limitations, given its broad base of talent.

RTS mods, definitly. But I'd also enjoy a good, gritty futuristic mod for say...Call of Duty 4? Yeah. Hard sci-fi ftw.

But RTS. There's not that many of them out there to my understanding, especially if its out of an FPS engine (which has always been a neat concept to me)

Aren't there enough FPS mods already?
How about some RPG mods for once, there's
like NO total conversion mods for any RPG...
But someone should make a Starcraft mod to
STALKER, it could be awesome if done right...

I voted RPG since they are somewhat lacking on ModDB atm. Reminder though that The Nameless Mode for Deus Ex is coming up which I'm really excited about.
