Some of my fondest GTA memories have included cheats. My favorite all time cheat is the slo motion cheat from San Andreas. You could play out entire missions in slo mo, and the audio for the game would be in slo mo too.

I choose cheats and I have nested every gta with cheats because it's grand theft auto. U can tell me I suck or I am a casual gamer. Whoever says that can eat a dick ok. Anyway, if there aren't any restrictions from using cheats like not saving or achievements, then gta 5 will be the first gta I will beat without cheats.

yeah lol ive only finished IV & EFLC without cheats every 3 era i used them sneaky2.gif

I'd say friend's idea - would be cool to have something to spend your doe on and I don't really use cheats

 

except when I played "*the helicopter game" with friends

If you have the cheat in SA that allowed you to recruit pedestrians, you wouldn't need buddies.

Meh, i want both. Video games are made for people who are bored about real life. So its kinda ironic if we want full realism in video games, that kinda steer away the purpose of video games. GTA IV had it spot on in balancing realism and video games fun

Cheats are cheats because they aren't realistic. I don't like waiting 20-30 seconds for a car to arrive, or for weapons to be brought to me. Cheats are like, "Boom, done."

I voted cheats.

 

I like to think cheats are a moral test for the player. Sure you can use them but you wont complete the game 100 percent if you do. However you have all the cool sh*t you could ever want if you do.

 

On the other hand there is a satisfaction to completing the game without the use of any cheats that can't be rivaled in the game. You earn everything you get and after completing the game 100% the cheats are open to you without a punishment, because you earn the right to use them.

 

Buddies are alright and I want to see then in the game for the benefits however, between a buddy with limited availability and a cheat I can always cause chaos with I will always chose cheats.

This is GTA, so we would have to choose. Thing is, we'd be able to choose either option. So if they did implement your buddy idea, cheat codes would still be in the game. This poll is rather pointless as a result.

GTA is not about realism. It's about fun, committing crimes and doing stuff you'd never do in real life. Cheat Codes are better then friend assistance, I hope they include fun codes like flying cars or driving on the ocean or something like that. biggrin.gif

This poll should have a "both" option. We had both in IV. It's such an apples and oranges question as well. It's like asking if should we should have side missions or a day/night cycle instead.

There ammunation for weopons. But I want the city to riot, I want a bounty on my head, I want to bunny hop over fifty feet with a bike. I can take care of enemies so I dont really need assistance like dwaine provided. For me its either both or cheats if I have to choose one.

No. it shouldn't.

 

It's just hypothetical...

Kinda like voting for the President (if you have that where you live)

 

Just one choice, what would you choose.

No real pressure. Not saying Rockstar should just choose one. Of course I want both.

Once again, All hypothetical...

 

Why is this so hard to understand?

buddies , + trainer(when needed) , so bitch please people who voted cheats

What about the people who didn't get it on PC because they don't have one fast enough, asshole?

That's kinda mean. wow.gif

I'm mean? He's basically saying remove all cheats so nobody will have any, and if anybody wants them they should get a trainer. I can't exactly get a f*cking trainer because I'm on a console and would have to pirate the game to install the trainer, and not only is it too much work, but rockstar deserves my damn money and I don't pirate anyways.

LOL, I'm thinking about Cheat DLC that put all basic / crazy cheats into your phone for just $1.99 (Like SD with DLC that gives out more XP/Money at the beginning) biggrin.gif That's win-win for everyone (Only those who wants cheat will get it since it's very cheap already) but again, even on console, not everyone has Internet access, so it's still kinda suck dozingoff.gif

So, instead of just entering the numbers for the cheats you want, you could buy them all for 2 dollars? Why not just look up the cheats you want and enter the numbers accordingly?

 

 

Only those who wants cheat will get it

 

Implying that cheats weren't optional already? Seriously, who the flying f*ck is forcing all of you poor people to use cheats? It's not me, and it's certainly not the game. Who the f*ck is going around houses and pointing guns at people until they enter some cheats?

That would be the biggest rip off I ever heard. A DLC for cheats. That's not a win - win. It's a Lose - Win. You people don't have to spend another dime on the game while we will have to buy for cheat codes. That's just as bad as online passes.

I didn't like the cheats in IV. I tried not to use them but the fact that they were there meant my willpower caved in after a while. It completey took the worth out of cool vehicles like the super gt, turismo, comet, and anniliator. There was no thrill in finding one when you knew you could just call one up in under 10 seconds.

Yes, cheats are cool for 'goofing around' but having fun in free roam doesn't necessarily mean using cheats.

 

I may have misunderstood what 'buddies' means. It's online/splitscreen coop/freeroam, right? Right?

The poll is pointless, because it's not a good hypothetical question. The buddy thing was in GTA IV and had nothing to do with cheats. I love cheats after I beat the game, but I like getting cars and weapons delivered from friends during the story. They're used for different reasons. One is a necessary game mechanic/feature and the other is just for fun.

 

An example of a basic hypothetical question would be something like this: Would you rather have the ability to fly or the ability to control time?

 

Your hypothetical is more like this: Would you rather have the ability to fly or the ability to digest food?

Well, you know, get a better willpower then. I don't see why I should have to suffer because you're weak. If you don't want to use cheats, then don't use cheats. If they're taking the fun and worth out of vehicles don't use them. This is like me having to go to an AA meeting because a drunk driver crashed into my house.
