Your Best 5 Mods Of All Time

[Unstoppable]

Taken a note from the top 5 games list, now list your top 5 mods of all time and why.

 

1)Thievery Unreal Tournament(www.thieveryut.com)- no one had any idea how in the world would you bring the Thief universe to an online game. BlackCatGames has created something no one else has done. Splinter Cell 4 online is pretty good but it does not offer what Thievery does. On an outdated Unreal Tournament engine Thievery is a live and well to this day. About 4+ years or so and still going.

 

2)Quakeworld Team Fortress(www.planetfortress.com)- The year was 1997. The mod was released and all hell broke loose. It to this day is single handedly responsible for all the team fortress games that followed. The makers of this mod now work for Valve. Nuff said.

 

3)Navy Seals Covert Operations. (Quake 3, www.ns-co.net) Not many people play this mod anymore but Team Mirage(now defunct) created something that gave Counter-Strike a run for it's money. Realistic yet forgiving a well balanced Seals vs Terrorist mod. The guns and the bullets feel real and so does when you get hit or fall from too high. A well made mod which deserves more recognition. Hopefully team Mirage can manage to gather enough will and resources and have Navy Seals gold released by christmas 07.

 

4)Custom Teamfortress- similar to quakeworld teamfortress you use money and are able to create your own class. It's very diverse and allows for many crazy options. Using your wit and ingeniouis you can defeat your opponents and win for your team.

 

5)Wacraft 3: Defense of the Ancients -this mod is very good and has been patched so many times. It's even made it to major gaming tournaments. Use heroes and try to overrun and fight your way to your enemies base. Wipe them out before they wipe you out. If you take too long they might become too strong so time is key.

I don't really know any mods. I have seen some Battlemech mods on Moddb I'm interested in, but I don't know how far they are, as I usually forget to check. A good battlemech strategy game would definitely be something I would like to play. I played some of the "simulations" but somehow they don't give me the same feeling as the tabletop.

there is a mechwarrior strategy game. check it out at gamerankings.com

Well, that was what I meant. They are action games and not strategy. I might give it a(nother) try though. I only played one of the earlier ones and I found the controling scheme quite complex. I would still like to see a good rendition of the tabletop though. I know there is one game, but it's quite minimilaistic and doesn't have nice graphics. I think a mixture of Mechwarrior and the tabletop would be great.
