I'm really interested in getting involved in some games, and would like to know which is the most favorite patch that is played.

Xarius:

I think the simple answer is none of them - it really depends on your tastes and whatnot and you may find that Nova is the patch for you, Hyperion, Reality, etc.

I'd suggest trying them all and seeing which one you like the best.

Naturally, since I designed Hyperion, I'm biased to that one, but I think you'll find that all the mods improve upon the original game tremendously.

Xarius...as Matt said, it does depend on taste. I've only played the Nova and Hyperior patches to any extent (and of course regular EFS)

I play regular EFS for flashbacks and nostalgia of when I first played and loved the game.

I play Nova in multiplayer games.

I play Hyperion for single player, and have played some multiplayer games. It is very difficult. It also has a lot of cool applications of new ideas in it. Nova is basically the "vanilla", and Hyperior is kinda the version with sprinkles :)

Both are equally good, it all depends on what you feel like playing.

I'll have to give them both a try, thanks
