Personally I only play one mod at a time because my attention span is so short I would forget what each mods is about.
That said I used to play more than one mod at a time and did the same with books too. However, now that I am a going-gray gamer, I’m finding that a bit harder.
Maybe it’s more to do with my personality than my age?
I am working on a bunch of project related to PP/gaming at the moment, so it’s not as if I can only concentrate on one thing at a time, it’s just I prefer to really get immersed in what I am playing.
Now I think about it, I prefer to watch my TV shows that way too – all in one go.
What about you?

I only play one at a time,but download as many as I can to stock up. Then, I play them at my own pace. Stretch them out, so I’ll always have a mod to play!

I usually play only 1 mod at a time. But if i get stuck in one i’ll try another mod and continue playing with the first mod if i’m in mood to try it again.

Ooooh1 One at a time is quite enough thanks!. 2 or more would fry my little brain.

One at a time. My problem is usually downloading more than one, playing the one I’m more tempted by, and then completely forgetting the other mod is in my hard drive.

Only 1 at a time! I put the other DL’s in my “unplayed” folder, then have at ‘em later!! Phillip, e-mail me a pic of your Grey Hair! You”re still too young!!

I usually download and play many mods at once. In fact I am playing 3 games at the same time right now. The problem with this is that you might start to lose interest with the other mods, and eventually forget about them.

Definately one at a time. I also try to limit the games I’m playing at any one time.

as they are released i download them, if i like them which is most of them. i check to see if they work, basically get the first weapon, then stop. if i get really really stuck in a mod i might jump over to another for a while then come back to the first one.

Exactly as Black Dog said. I try to keep up to date with downloads, keep a handwritten list of those and give each a rating after I’ve played them. Unfortunately I’m nearly up to date

i to play one at a time, same with games for that matter. i like to get realy into a mappack/mod/game, and this is best done when you play one at a time.
am glad to read that most people play one at a time!!

Usually I only play 1 mod at a time, and I beat 1 mod before i move onto the next, but if i have a particularly long mod, along with a few mods that I know are fairly short, i play through the short ones to act as a palette cleanser so I don’t get burned out on the longer mod.
