very difficult to decide, there are many fun game mechanics...
but my favorite is probably the community: most people are very mature and dedicated (not all, but you can't expect that). it creates a friendly and constructive atmosphere i rarely see in other games.
The model designs. Specifically the kharaa lifeforms. Their style, biology, colouring, physicality, the way the various lifeforms have similar physical traits... it's really a perfect imagining of the NS universe. I played for a long time before I noticed just how detailed and beautiful the lerk is, you don't get a chance to really marvel at it during combat so take a look the next time you're in a ready room. Also the headpiece/crown on the Onos, those boney protrusions are such a cool styling.
I'm with triggerman. It's all about the moddability. I've been toying around with a total conversion idea for a while now and I can't wait to see what other people do.
Also, in a close second place, all of the art in the game is absolutely <i>gorge</i>ous.
