Cheats for this game?

[Legion]

Are there any cheats for the single player experience? Im having such a bad time right now that its making me want to write a negative review for this game.
Such poorly structured area with incredibly low supplies and more enemies than i've seen in the entire game so far, that just took me 3 hours to beat, with no reward what so ever.
I've been stuck in the hassan prison for 3 hours trying to beat 3 demolishers without a weapon. Just to have 1 minute at the very end to grab some petards and pistol ammo before blowing up hoping that i would go back to the beginning like i usually did after dying 50 times to the demolishers.
But no, it sends me back to the very beginning, without meds, all weapons destroyed and no guns.
This one area ruined my entire experience i had so far and at this point i just want some cheats, godmode or whatever to blitz through it and have it be finished.

I wouldn't recommend Harran Prison until you feel ready for it. The game is quasi-open world, so it may be wise to do something easier and save this until later. The same goes for Bozak Horde... neither of these are beginner areas to play with new Cranes.

Every now and then, a player feels stuck in the prison and makes a post. Simply go to the rowboat, at the floating dock, out past the pier. Climb in and use the prompt to exit the area. Once out of the prison map, select a different, non-DLC quest to track, so you don't get sent back there by mistake.

Prison? That's a very endgame activity. Why would you do it if you don't want it.
And there's probably a few godmode mods but come on, it's not that bad. I struggled a few times, but with legend level, all challenges become pretty easy after a while.

Prison is entirely optional. Just like in the main game, you're not supposed to take them all on, rather find a way to smartly parkour and camo your way around them. There's a few zombies that do need killing.

I don't see why anyone would need to cheat trough it, it's entirely optional and you can return with better skills, gear, firecrackers, potions and booster. The rewards are, on guru level some gold fantasy weapons and a bunch of king mods.

I don't like cheating, I don't like cheaters. Knock yourself out, but stay the ♥♥♥♥ out of multiplayer and don't give your ♥♥♥♥ to noobs, the early game experience is difficult and well-crafted a cheated high end weapon tends to ruin that.

As for cheats? Go ahead and risk a VAC Ban if you want. I'm the type that would make a mistake while cheating and get banned, so I stay away from them. That way, I don't have to make a post saying something like:

"I only cheated in my solo game, why did I get a Steam wide game ban, when someone else I know cheats and didn't get one? This is ruining hundreds of games I've purchased for multiplayer!"

Final topic: The reason it seems poorly structured, is not understanding the area as designed. It is a challenge run to push players for timed rewards. There is no loot until beating the mission, because no one has time to pick anything up. Here is an example, how to finish the mission in under 3 minutes:

I purchased this game in an edition with all the DLCs, i had a task, so i went there. I managed to beat it all just to get assblasted at the end.
I was not informed about how difficult it is, or what supplies i need, i also assumed that it is story needed due to the things that were said by the characters and why would i assume the game would throw end-game stuff at me at the start?
Now that i know the purpose of it it feels a bit less cheap but still very poorly communicated unless you read the steam store page, which does not give the game any immersion points.......
I guess the issue solved itself. I wont get my 3 hours back now anyway and im not planning on going there again, maybe ever.

From the main menu, go to the "What's New" section. This will actually explain to you each of the add-on content that is beyond the story mode. Prison Heist is explained there along with the other additions.

Also any of the things listed in "Repeatable quests" while in game are not required for the story, they are just activities you can choose to do

@Legion,

I agree that that the goal and difficulty should be more clearly expressed by the developers. Especially for those of us that aren't old time veterans. What tipped me off was the "DLC" label in the quest list. This game is somewhat open-world and doesn't hold hands though... If something seems too difficult, just back off ;)

I hope I didn't come off as an @ss, I was just trying to explain in detail.

Nah, you're good.
I was, and still am quite angry, but at least i learned how it works, the hard way sadly.

Wow prison heist is clearly for those who have finished the game
Its like playing dark souls and rushing through it

It's not entirely obvious to a new player, and it is a bit strange that all the end game content shows up during early story missions

It would have made more sense for it to not unlock until later in the game

With new gamemodes which seem out of place (as its not tied with the story) the person should atleast do some reasearch, then theyd see theyd be up against 3 demolishers while they have a 32 damage plank

If you just started the game and jumped into story line you have no idea that this is a new game mode, it shows up like any other quest you've been offered up to that point

You are looking at this from a veteran players perspective and failing to understand what it looks like to a new player that just starts up the game and starts new

Do some research? Really? That's kinda why he posted this topic, he asked the community about it

I'm just fully aware of why he needed to ask, because as a new player it is not obvious that this is end game content.

its not part of the main quest and no one person gives you the quest (side quest)
like bozaks horde it just appears in dlc quests
saints row 3 had something similar with gangstas in space where it showed up at the start, i did it right after i finished the main game as i had an inclination it was dlc content
the prison dlc even appears in the what's new category in the main menu which can be accessed as part of 10 in 12 program

it does not wait for you to be at the end game, you've missed the point. It shows up as a task in your list as something to do very early in the game

Most new players are not going to explore the new content menu before at least playing the game first, they arent looking for new content. And as a new player how are you to know that all DLC is end game content?

For one thing, not all of it is. Many DLC can be done long before end game. You don't seem capable of understanding how it looks to a new player. This shows up in your quests list at a time when you are flooded with side missions and repeatables, many of the repeatables are fairly easy even in the early to mid stage game. Then you suddenly find that one of them is insanely difficult and out of place.

At the very least it makes you question why its there, and then you end up with threads like this

If you can't understand that, there's no point in discussing it further
