Crytek.....Why are PC command console cheats disabled?

Post » Tue Feb 01, 2011 12:07 pm

This has probably been brought up before but I noticed the console is completely locked down in terms of g_godMode = 1 and unlimited ammo infinite suit energy etc etc.
I have beaten the campaign twice without cheating :P and i absolutely love this game, but this is my only real complaint. Anti-cheating shuld be for multiplayer absolutely but not for the campaign. I miss devmode where i can fly arond and be invincible and stuff it was fun in crysis 1 and warhead.

Does anyone know if there is a way around this? I know you can edit the .pak files and change cvars in there but I have absolutely no idea how to open them lol. Plus i have a feeling i could really mess something up by doing that. Either way there has to be a way. Maybe the next patch will re-enable them for single player if we r lucky.....along with a map editor.....

still its an awesome game tho :D

A majority of the console commands were removed before the official release, only a hand full made it through.

dont see the point to disable it tbh, once you beaten the game you wanna go on a killingspree without dying or running out of ammo or getting low on energi =)

I hope this isn't another CryTroll -.-
Anyhow, I'm pretty sure there is a work around in the config but I wouldn't get too bogged down in it

No it's not, there are SP unlocks, ergo there should be NO CHEATS!

Stop bugging CryTek for useless ****!?

and MayDay wtf its not useless s***, PC crysis 1 had all these commands and a devmode too. Made the game even more amazing than it already was, they locked down this one. The unlocks are just stuff to look at, dogtags, pics, and they are cool, but i'm talking cheats. Like invulnerability, no energy drain, unlimited ammo etc etc. for use in single player campaign. Not multiplayer at all just to clarify. They were in the first game. They should be here too except they are disabled.

I agree with you Barronator, these cheat should be usable for having more fun in solo mode. I've found everything you can collect, and now i just want to kick alien's as*es like a serial killer ( as terminators do ), just for fun.
