I assume that I should put it here... it IS related to modding and FS, after all.
I am talking about Breed [I know that HL2 is also interesting, but with all delay things going on, the FS FPS mod for Breed could be finished before HL2 would be out;)]. What features make it so damn useful?
-full space and ground combat. It DO include capships, fighters and all other cool things. Talk about close air support of allied forces combined with fighting off enemy bombers attacking your capship [Orion, most likely]!
-real-time transition between space and planetary surface. I do not think that I need to explain this, and how useful it is.
-deformable terrain. Maybe it isn't a geomod, but still a nice feature [IOW, you can't blow up normal terrain, but you can easily destroy buildings etc]
-everything from infantry, tanks and buggies to dropships, fighters and huge capships [including turrets and capship interiors! You could make a boarding action from this!]
-extreme modability [how to put it... there are already nice mods for a beta version of demo, and this is without any supporting tools that will be provided for a full game]
That would be all that I can recall. I am SURE that it is a AWESOME platform for FS FPS [assuming that people still want to do it? Last one kind of died].
