Am I cheating

Johnfb · 03-05-11, 11:27 AM

I have gone in to the cgf files (only through my learning how to do this from the forum) and gave myself 60 of every medal, gave the men loads of experience and renown, gave the men all the medals and increased their stamina etc to full...spent some time giving everyone full promotions and gave all PO qualifications.

So up to the hilt in everything and am setting off to sea, with the best crew ever, these guys will never need to sleep and will fight like wild dogs. The sub is kitted out in everything it can have.

So is this considered cheating...should I plod along geting one medal after each tour...

If it were a competition then I'd say yes. It's not a competition, so how you play is up to you. If you want to know whether it's realistic, then no, it's not.

If you just want to beat the game, do whatever it takes. If you want to experience what they really did, your crew needs to grow realistically.

Petty Officers should all be qualified, as that's what makes them Petty Officers. They should only be awarded medals when they do something to deserve them.

Here's a question: Why do you feel you need to ask this of others?

For me it would be cheating, but you're not me, you're you. On the other hand if you start bragging about how great you are at the game, expect some flak.
Above all, have fun.

No I am dreadful at the game believe me, which is why I cheated in the first place. Played for ages at beginners level with the game as is, struugled but enjoyed it...however...with the mods and cheats I find it more interesting to add extras...but trust me...I am crap at the game....

thanks for the reply

Well, if you're cheating because you suck so bad...that I can understand.

And yes, our Jim is brilliant. Sick, but brilliant.
