As far as I know (which isn't too much)..

Maya is better for modelling organic objects and those with many complex curves.

3D Max is great for lower poly modelling (in comparison to the high poly work nowadays), primarily for games and the such.

Never the less, it's all about what you are used to more than what options are available... as there are many.

These are done in 3dmax:

Now i'll shut up and let the pros answer

yea the BF2 moding tool uses 3ds Max

The program is only as good as the artist. You can create it all in both.

[Wolfmaster]

true, but that doesn't mean either of the 2 is more fit for a certain job.

[JoeB]

well you can do both low and high poly in either one of them, so as far as that their equal. Same thing for organic and anorganic, it's just a slightly different approach.

Maya has the edge in fluid dynamics though, but seeing the guys from Autodesk bought the guys from Maya, I think that's sorta lost

[Wolfmaster]

probably. i'm not really into modelling and all that. so i guess you know what you're talking about.
