Are mods facing extinction?

Posted by Faith - May 03, 2008 15:02 - 583 Views

Expectations are rising, quality standards need to be met and if it doesn't have cell shading in it then why should somebody want to play it? The modding scene, according to Scott Reismanis (owner of ModDB.com), is going to have a tough time over the coming years.

	#1 - spitfire - May 03, 2008 15:53 it sure is hard to fill a server these days, but thats because there are so many mods so I guess only a few will get trough.
	#2 - FlyingMongoose - May 04, 2008 01:15 It's hard to fill a server because your "typical player" looks for idiotic simplicity, you can not attract an intelligent user as they no longer exist in the gaming world.
	#3 - Faith - May 04, 2008 01:36 Flyingmongoose, did you drink your depressive drink again? :P And the last time I remember we are also still gamers and I wouldnt want to call us not intilligent
	#4 - Roflcpt3r - May 04, 2008 07:20 Its just a bit harder to find the rest of us because of the whole Xbox Live (and those like em) crowd.
	#5 - Roflcpt3r - May 04, 2008 07:21 Any WoWers fall in that category as well..
	#6 - Viper - May 04, 2008 13:14 I do agree with mongoose though, but its mostly also because of age concerning what they play ;) thats all i have to say.
	#7 - DaveB - May 04, 2008 23:26 I think they play css, COD4, TF2...because they all have cell shading and limited bugs...I dont play any mods these days because most are unplayable...give me CSS or COD4..not INS ;)
	#8 - Olly - May 05, 2008 01:10 People do seem to expect alot more from mods (even though they are free ?!).. But i guess it's just how the world works :p DH will be the best mod you ever played though
	#9 - Skurcey - May 06, 2008 20:17 Maybe a system pretty much like ArmA would work better. You can control ai, gameplay just with the script and the mission.
