Cheats

[Battlezerg]

Do you think (or want) there will be cheats on SC2? If so, wich ones would they be and how would you be able to get them? Or you don't care either way?

I personally don't care, if there aren't well so what? I almost never use them on SC original, why should I assume I will use them on SC2? If there are I will probably use them eventualy but I don't really care.

Note: Please don't suggest multiplayer cheats.:)

They're known as hacks.

There is always cheats in games.

They'd probably keep the classic ones, as well as a few others (some of which were shown in the videos of SC: II gameplay).

Off Topic:
What anime is your avy from SC?
OT: I want cheats, because i need them when beta testing stratiges, and maps. although that wouldnt be a problem in Sc II with the new editor
[make your own].

Battlezerg's avatar is an option here on WB, not animie. And its Jim Raynor.

[apostolos]

Get us the cheats man!

He was talking to Silver Crusader :P

From what I have heard, cheats can mess up the AI though when testing. Not sure if this will remain in SC II.

[SilverCrusader]

DN Angel.

[Battlezerg]

I know about hacks I meant cheats like the ones used in single player but for multi-player. Also I didn't know they had showed cheats in the videos, could you say wich ones they were? I would download the videos but I am currently using dial-up :(.

[SilverCrusader]

the ones used in single player but for multi-player
Thats exactly what hacks are, singleplayer cheats for multi-player use.

[DarkMirror]

He's rewfering to the comical ones that have been thought up plenty of other times. Someone always thinks up a cheat that anyone can use in multiplayer.

[ChimTheGrim21]

my favorite SC cheat is infinite energy (the gathering). I just go around with a queen and broodling everything. :)

[TitanWing]

Well, of course I want cheats! It's always fun to play around in singleplayer after beating it fairly. Cheats are actually USEFUL in mapping and map testing ("black sheep wall" > gazillion map revealers).

[ColMirage]

I'm going to need them for mapping/testing purposes.

[SolidSamurai]

What happened to that thread with all the funny cheat quotes? Dammit, I miss that thread.

[Kankuro4800]

Well, I don't know how the new map editor works, but cheats are an easier way to test mods and maps that you made or downloaded. and cheats are a necessity to me since I still can't be the comp XD (at least I admitted it...)

[DarkMirror]

Try playing without the cheats, and you might beat them. Every time you rely on them you lose even more skill.

[lizard0113]

I want cheats cause you can go crazy and have fun:P And that unlocking them sounds neat idea. Like there could be secondary missions in the campain some of them have cheats to unlock and make you think you can unlock a cheat ;) (I voted yes not unlock them). Also I would like to see and infinate supply limit added to the other cheats

[TitanWing]

Also I would like to see and infinate supply limit added to the other cheatsBlizzard accepts no responsibility for any errors your computer may have when using this cheat code.

:rolleyes:

[lizard0113]

I know only so many units can function proporely but still I like the no limit(i even have a mod for it)

[TitanWing]

Uh...what? You can't make mods with unlimited supply. It's hard-coded into the game from what I've heard.

[Kellanved]

I think they should be unlocked. Like in a mission you have a primary objective, but also a special objective that you have to find, and in order to unlock the cheat, you have to complete the special objective while not failing at the primary objective. Then after beating the mission with the special objective accounted for, you get a bonus mission, for which the nature of it corresponds to the cheat you're unlocking. For example, if you are to unlock black sheep wall, the objective of the bonus mission would be to unload scout sentries at certain locations all over the map, and make sure they stay standing until all sentries are placed. Or if you want 'show me the money' you do a bonus mission where (like one of the BW zerg missions) you have to collect a certain amount of minerals and gas that isn't to be used, but in this case you must deposit them in special deposit buildings where you won't have access to them as well (and you're going against an enemy so you need to collect some resource for yourself to defend). etc... y'know

[Battlezerg]

Sorry for leaving the topic alone for so much time, didn't have time to check it.

Anyway, a cheat to pass the maximum supply limit would be really cool but my computer would probably burn out if I use it :P. Also that's a pretty nice idea Kellanved, would be cool if it ended up being like that.

Also from what I know (wich isn't much) cheating messes up the comp AI and the new map editor should be able to help with map and strategy testing.

WHAT? I hav it right here on how to have unlimited supply(all you do is change how much supply the unit uses). And the whole point is to edit the hard- coded code with a mod lol!:P

[TitanWing]

That wasn't what I meant.

[lizard0113]

What did you mean?

[DarkMirror]

It is impossible to edit HARDCODE. Even with Modding. Only Soft(?)coding can be edited.

correct. The overall limit on psi used simultaneously cannot be changed.

[lizard0113]

O the supply limit(hard) can't be changed but only the units usage of supply limit(soft) can be. Gotcha ;)

OT: I would also like a stack cheat with having to use lights. ^_^

[TitanWing]

Lights? What excatly do you mean?

[Protogod]

Lights? What excatly do you mean?

As in the "glitch" where you turn off a players vision for himself, so that he can stack cannons or buildings in UMS maps (like cat and mouse or archon tag)

[lizard0113]

Haven't you ever played stacked cannon d or crazy turrent d?[The non SC turrent d is in my sig(no lights though-_-)]

[DarkMirror]

Yes, we know thast game. You just didnt describe the feature well.

[TitanWing]

Haven't you ever played stacked cannon d or crazy turrent d?[The non SC turrent d is in my sig(no lights though-_-)]
No, I haven't.

I play melee far more than UMS, though I've played little SC since school started for me.

[lizard0113]

o.. ok ^_^

[Galiant]

I hate the Warcraft Cheat

And I wish they'd remove the god mode
