I spent and effort getting UP to talk to AAA, so what i say next is in NO way at all intended to be offensive in any way at all, it is just my opinion.
The way i see it is this. At the moment, like now, not later down the line if or when the two sites get together, but as it all stands now, is.....
there is a dictatorship pack and a democratic pack. in the dictatorship pack, you get what you are given and be done with it.
in the democratic pack, you decide what mods you( the end user) wants to put in.
OK, so one loads a full min quicker, but for those of us from an earlier timeline, when the PC was all DOS and a game took upto 90 mins to maybe load in, this is not an issue lol.
They are both good packs in their own rights, what i see though, is that with the AAA way of utilising mods, each author gets the thanks for the mods they make, individually and in their own thread, this gives motivation for the author and more mods are produced which is good all round, with UP, it seems that only 3 people get all the attention, thus reducing motivation to the authors.
But with that said, "both" are good packs for what they do. Hopefully, if both sites come up with 1 big pack, the issue of adding planes and maps individually will get sorted.
that is all that can be said about it really
S!
