Mods or stock?

[quasarrgames]

Just want to get a relatively accurate ratio of members of the community who mod, and members who play stock.

So, please vote!

Edit:

th post! Yay!

Realism all the way.

That means I need mods.

[Ald]

AS MANY MODS AS I CA-

Actually, I can't crash with Linux x64, so I'll say Candlejack inste-

[Freshmeat]

Just a hookup to my control panel and KER, and I am set. Ship manifest for laziness.

[BlueCanary]

No part mods, but that's partly because my computer will hate me forever if I do. Just KER, Hyperedit etc.

[lukethecoder64]

I use a few mods, but only a few.

Mainly KER, MJeb, USILS, Chute safety, KAS/KIS, Scatterer and pretty much everything that should be stock.

[vixr]

I'm running a TON of mods...

[Ignath]

Mods, must have the mods.

[Wolfos31]

I play stock for now but I would like to add some visual enhancement mods. Just not sure where to start with it frankly.

[Taowulf]

I want to have more mods. Mostly cosmetic.

[Seanoog]

Stock all the way!

QA Tester, so mod free install for me (Mods would only complicate the diagnostic process.)

When we have release builds.

1.0.4 for example, I on occasion will install graphic mods on a second installation of KSP. My favourite are EVE, Interstellar, Planet shine and Scatter.

[nightingale]

I don't always play KSP (much more time spent modding), but when I do, I use mods like crazy.

[montyben101]

Dont know who wouldnt use them. They make up about 80% of my game

[Ignath]

I play stock for now but I would like to add some visual enhancement mods. Just not sure where to start with it frankly.

Environmental Visual Enhancements for Clouds & City Lights

Texture Replacer to replace planet textures for improved planets from orbit, change kerbal heads, uniforms

Scatterer to have some atmospheric scattering/haze

Distant Object Enhancement to show Planets/Moons/Orbiting vessels as sprites in the sky and overlays

Planetshine to add reflections of the planet onto your orbiting vessels

Hot Rockets + Real Plume + Smokescreen to add better engine effects/exhaust effects

Engine Lights (or Lighting) adds a light source from engines

Very selective of part mods, otherwise as many as I can

[Randazzo]

I have the dilemma of having to get rid of some Mods (or selectively prune them) as I work on my own. 64bit needs to arrive quick-like.

[Just Jim]

I'm only using two. Asteroid day, which may become stock one day. And Chatterer, which I wish would become stock some day!!!

[PwnedDuck]

I use 'micro-mods'; that is to say, mods that make very small changes or improve graphics, not adding large new gameplay systems. That way I can feel 'honest' about my gameplay whilst still having a better time. I mean, why not have first person EVAs, have rockets exhausts be a light source, or indeed have access to proper flight data?

[xtoro]

Added procedural part and sxt along with a few non-part mods, and deleted most stock parts. So my answer is E.

[Skorpychan]

A few mods. I like KSP the way it is when stock, but some mods just make it better, or just plain EASIER.

For example, KER just gets the guesswork out of rocketry and lets me run numbers. Less frustrating fails, more interesting stuff. MechJeb deals with rendezvouses, which are tricky and try my patience. And I found a mod to switch the contents of fuel tanks around to make LV-Ns worthwhile again without messing with spaceplane parts.

mods mods mods

[Hagen von Tronje]

Mod till it breaks. Then start customizing and modding your mods.

I have an inherent need to customize everything I touch.

[Yemo]

Its like taking the red pill. You can go back for lulz, but it feels very shallow...

[Alshain]

FYI, If you want relatively accurate, a poll isn't going to do that.

[Korizan]

I use mods but I stay away from part mods.

Why because I played Minecraft (well still do occasionally) and I don't want to be in a situation where I am stuck on version .90 (for instance) because my favorite modder stopped updating the mod.

This is always a danger when it comes to games that rely heavily on Mods.

Mods should enhance a game not make the game.
