I've been relooking at Rocket Theme because I really like the March Photon entry. I can go joomla or wordpress.
Do either allow for the menu to become fixed upon scrolling?
It's not a built-in feature (yet) but we do have Guide available to fix Header navigation.

Is it just a drop down menu or will it allow for a mega menu?
Check
http://demo.rockettheme.com/live/joomla/ambrosia/
and hover over the PAGES menu item. This columnized dropdown is called "Extended" and avaialble as an option along with the default dropdown menu.

Does this new framework play nicely with 3rd party plug ins?
The issue is more that PHP 5.4+ and Joomla 3.4+ are required for Gantry 5 so any 3rd party would have to also support those requirements.

the menu in wordpress wouldn't open in chrome.
Thanks,

It seems the Wordpress Documentation for Photon isn't up yet.
