Multicam by a long shot. 'Cause its what I use ;)
Also, little known facts:
*Lost to ACU because of The Cost and time used for producing it.
*It is important to note however, that the multicam pattern finished first place in 98% of the multi-environment tests conducted
by the US Army's Future Combat Systems, and in the 2% where it wasn't in first place, it was in third.

Now Marpat isn't bad at all - in fact a friend of mine uses it from time to time and its brilliant for colder countries such as Canada or Norway - or at least colder climates. (You have of course desert marpat and woodland marpat - I am talking about the woodland).
Chocolate chip is so dated. I mean for the classical look its cool, but for actual use its very dated.

Ill have to agree with Ender. I do enjoy the tiger stripe. I use it when playing paintball. I do enjoy the urban/snow camo as well.

Thank you Haradrel. I would choose the vietnam tiger!
BTW Why are you wearing those outfits? Are you a soldier?

The Tiger Stripe is really nice. Been looking for this pattern for a long while, but didn't know what it was called.
I do like the Philippine Navie Special Warfare Group pattern:

But you can't beat the Benin pattern:

ACU and Marpat are both the direction of the future, but back when I was in the army, I had the opportunity to wear a Non-reg pattern called Rhodisian. For some odd reason I always liked that pattern.

No problem mate.
No I'm not a soldier, I was one, but I did my 1 year tour of duty a few years back. (we still have a years tour we have to do here).
Its and airsoft outfit, but its a replica of a real outfit used by Special Forces, Swat and DEA amongst other things. Also Blackwater uses that camo pattern.
Actually I was the Norwegian equivalent of a Marine, but I doubt very much that the camaraderie that follows American Marines are extended to other countries ;) (So I won't go "Semper Fi" on someone as it might be considered rude by a non-American Marine) ;)

Yeah, in my rapid response mode, I picked the wrong pic. Sorry. However I like that pattern too. I'm not a real big digital pattern fan. Yeah, I know the studies and the visual breakup and all that...I just dislike how mechanical they look.
The Rhodisian pattern is here:
Notice the reds and purples in it. Not your ordinary camo.
