If you are interested into mods, have a look here to watch the community made modificaitons:

There is all kind of stuff, gameplay mods, rpg/roleplaying mods, weapon mods, AI mods, sound mods, game world mods, ....too much. Just take your time and have a look around in the forum. Really great modifications and you wont find all on multiplayer servers, so its worth to play them offline aswell.

I would recommand to install a good sound and AI mod after you did played at least 2-3 missions on the campaign, so you see the difference. Really worth it and a different game expirience.

If you want to join multiplayer servers, the best is to have six-updater installed. With this software you download the needed mods for the individual servers you did select.
