Skyrim Dev's Please add "Cheats" to Skyrim : V - Skyrim

» Fri Jun 22, 2012 12:45 pm

OP dosent know what console commands are

I probably know more than you. But Im talking about Xbox and PS3

No thanks, cheats are boring.

They might as well just make a Game Genie for the xbox and ps3.

Can't add Cheats to the Xbox version because of Achievements. If you cheat and gain an achievement while cheating, it technically violates the TOS of MS, and they can ban your account and console from online services.

What, you mean the Smithing, Alchemy, and Enchanting perks aren't enough for you?

» Fri Jun 22, 2012 11:08 am

yes. we need some things added for the fun of it (i remember saints row 2 cheats, fun as all hell, evil cars and low gravity was, by far, the best time iv ever had in any game ever)

edit: if you think cheats are giving deadric weapons early on (that would be considered one, but that is not what anyone wants), go play saints row 3 and put in "brains" or go play GTA and figure out some of the more interesting cheats (all peds attack and peds have weapons is a fav of mine)

Agreed ... Aside from dragon mounts.

Let's tak GTA for example. Yes it has plenty of quests and whatnot, but I personally find them far less entertaining than spawning in a golf cart and driving like a maniac, before throwing it into the water and driving it there. All accomplished through cheats.

I 100% agree that Skyrim is a game to be played without cheats. But how many times have PC players used the console to get that extra bit of gold for Proudspire Manor? How many times have they said 'What if ...' and used the console to test it out? That's the sort of freedom I want 'cheats' for. What's wrong with that?

Personally I do not see a reason for this feature to be added. I rather have them add features that allow for us to do things like increase movementspeed and jumpheigth that is in the game without cheating. But that is just my opinion.

They already have cheats. 100 Smithing, 100 Enchanting, 100 Alchemy. That's pretty much your god mode right there.

Agreed.

While I am confused as to why dragon mounts would be considered a cheat, I will say that I wouldn't mind them if, and only if, they also came with mounted combat and lances. Then i could be like this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSeRieiAVs0

Now just like when you use them in GTA 4 it will disable Xbox and PS3 Achievements. I would like the following to be added. Be sure to add what you would like to see.

1. Ability to set Jumping height x2,x3,x4

2. Change Weather (Different weather available)

3. God Mode (Infinite Health, Magicka and Stamina)

4. Ability to set Speed

5. Add flyable dragons mounts

Doubt if any of this would get added, especially since:

1. You can ride a horse to pretty much anywhere in the game including most places you want to jump to.

2. There is already a Shout for that, in fact, two

3. Just get your character over level 50/60 and you have God Mode

4. Sprint Button

5. You think you want this, but you really don't.

And what is that supposed to mean, I'm a Xbox player :stare:

Why not offer some intelligent advice instead of looking for a fight. I think I'm safe to assume that many console players know of console command and what it does, it's just the info. that they do have is ill informed, misguided. Cheats are great, I use them myself, but they tend to bug out your game and if miss used can even " break " your game( save file ), instead of poking fun and trolling why not try to enlighten us feeble minded console players? :thumbsup:

Ummm...reading comprehension 101...
That reply was to someone stating the OP didn't understand the use of the console commands....which aren't available for the xbox, which I also play. So I was just informing the guy.

Looking for a fight? What are you...12?

Maybe you should take your own advice.

And for what it's worth, I don't agree with the OP.

Can't add Cheats to the Xbox version because of Achievements. If you cheat and gain an achievement while cheating, it technically violates the TOS of MS, and they can ban your account and console from online services.

GTA, Saints Row etc. all have cheats. When you activate them, achievements switch off (the save game is marked as a 'cheat' file). So it is possible for Xbox games.

Well if I took it out of context then I apologize to jpo, it's just that it's getting old when it comes to PC players looking to take a jab at a console player.

@ jpo I do sincerely apologize if I took your comment out of context, but it came off a bit harsh to me, but sorry if it wasn't meant to be. :yes:

Once again sincerest apologies, someone pointed that out and I was just after getting off another similar topic in " hints,tips,and spoilers " which ended up with PCer's making similar comments in a derogatory manner, which is where I thought you where going. Truly sorry :icecream:

have an ice cream, it makes everything better :tops:

Cheats would only cheapen the experience. It's nice knowing that if you can't do a certain quest because of your skills, that you can't just cut it short and input a "kill all" command. It makes you work a little bit harder and also makes you appreciate the game for what the developers made it as.

Also, I'd say you would play around with God mode and other cheats for about an hour and then immediately start to get bored.

Sorry guys, i'm too lazy to read the whole thread.

5. Add flyable dragons mounts

1. there's no acrobat skill

2. Clear Skies shout

3. Restoration glitch

4. Fast travel :tongue:

5. not available with console command

That sounds really tacky :/

Well apart from a desire to go flying with a dragon, I was happy with the cheats I got. Those shouts I would count as cheats, they definitely make the game easier and give us extra abilities. And there is the usual potions and enchantments to make things easier. No I have enough cheats, being handed more is going to make the game too easy and ruin it. I do want to have to do a bit of work.
