This game must come close.....

.....to being the best Community supported ever.I bought it the first day it was released in the UK and have watched it grow into the all time classic it is now.To be fair to Ubisoft and the developers the foundations were laid by them but then the modding people stepped in and all aspects of the game have been hugely improved until it's difficult to see how much better certain aspects could be. From me,who has downloaded so much of the modders hard work, eternal thanks to you all.

I cant help but agree here. The modding community made this game shoot from good to great, and its still expanding.

Keep at it simmers!

This game would not be as fresh and appealing still without the mods

Keep it up guys

The game with NYGM 2.0 + ShCommander + the weather mod comes very close to being what the game should have been out of the box. And thats to say nothing of the sheer wealth of other mods that are available.

I might even finally retire CAOD permanently.

Well, I must present my thanks too to the modders community. They have done an incredible job and kept the game alive.

Keep the mods flowing though , after all its got to keep me going until SH4 .

As a Newbie to SH3 (though not the SH/AOD series). I'm just playing the basic game, probably through to the wars end - then I'll start looking at Mods (there's a lot of them to chose (a difficult and confusing choice

).

But in my opinion the best game community was the GP2 comunity. Was very stronmg for about 5-6 years (and still out there (although a lot smaller)). New Cars/Tracks/Drivers from about every era/motorsport. GP" was a great game/sim to begin with anyway.

Echo that
I just hope SH4 Units are backwards compatable and will accept units from sh3 cos you know there wont be enough in it when its released and I know the Atlantic will draw me back still so will be nice to add new stuff from SH4 to it

Sigh - in an ideal world

lol

One of the reasons I'm still around is that this community is very big on maturity and fair mindedness-a lot of credit goes to Neal for not allowing this to turn into a home for the shoot-em-up/shoot off your mouth crowd.
The average age of the members plays a lot into this, also the never ending quest for realism by many of the modders means delving very deeply into historical data that would probably bore most FPS'ers to death. IMO
Anyway just my two cents worth
