I have never programmed any type of game before but I thought it would be awesome to make a mod for certain video games (COD) and I was wondering if DArk Basic is the way to go? It would be using the games engine I assume but programming some other stuff into it. No idea I am a noob

Dark basic it's for making your own games & stuffs, if you want to make mod you must use the game engine and change graphics and code variables.

Ex: Medal of Honor's (use Quake 3 TA engine)
to edit I you need to open ".pk3" (it's a zip file renamed) and replace:
- textures ".dds", ".tga"
- models and animation ".skd", ".skc"
- sounds ".mp3"
- maps ".bsp"
by your own stuffs and after that you change the codes from ".tik" adding more bullets, changing weapons name, less gravity, more health, etc.

COD use Q3 engine too, so it's almost the same way to edit MOH...

DB will not help you significantly. Your best bet is to go to a MOD forum for the game in question and download the programs and tutorials loacted there.
