Cheat Codes?

[Motherball]

Does the game have a debug menu or console commands? If not, is there any plans to add them in the future?

[blackgauntlet]

As far as we know, there isn't one.
BUT... here's the fun thing.
There DEFINITELY is a console and there are at least TWO cheat codes.
The first being "TonsOfCash" and the second being "DoomStack".

What does each do?
I haven't yet tried them and don't want to yet, but the 4th mission of each campaign is a chore : definitely not something you would want to do after a full work day.
So I shall see if I have enough motivation on weekend

HA. i found this thread for the same reason. mission 4 is broken af. all their units have double my stats, and im not going to replay the first 3 missions to rebuild my character to be more "meta" when this is my FIRST playthrough, on the EASIEST difficulty. they need to fix this. the campaign is supposed to be where you go to LEARN the game. not cause mature veteran strategy players to save scum, reload, google, and beat your head against a wall for hours.

Oh god. For real, man - it is allowed to go back and try again from new. That's also learning. I did it, too. And the results have been better in the end.

Are we talking the last mission in the Arleon campaign? Or is it all mission 4 maps? It's true that they tend to vary a bit in style in comparison to the rest of the campaigns are usually a bit more "free-for-all" and time consuming than the rest of them. They are usually written as Conquest missions with a twist.

I know that you asked jetsetsoaper and not me, but I will give my point of view.
I believe that the 4th missions of all campaigns are difficult, BUT considering that we encounter Arleon campaign 1st, we struggle the most with it.
For example, this is exactly the issue I have encountered in Heroes of Might & Magic series : when I first started, I didn't know how rules work and which skills are even available. So, leveling up heroes in the 1st campaign is always very chaotic which can result in greater difficulty down the line (due to inefficient build).

Personally, I think that only the 4th mission of Arleon campaign is too difficult. 4th missions of other campaigns seemed ok AFTER I beat the Arleon campaign.

If you're a developer you get to play with a very helpful console with all kinds of cheats ;)
"max-resources", "max-command", "teleport", "add-troop", "kill-defenders", "add-essence"... mmm... nice.

[EXEC_PAJA_/.]

Could just add a toggle in the options or a launch command like -developer or -devmode to allow the player to cheat if they want, let people have fun the way they want, where's the harm in it?

Why should someone have to replay missions already played to try and build your characters diffrent so you can progress i finished a mission with a full stack of decent units just so the next mission can start me over with bullspit basic half peasant armies and for that im giving this game a negative review other than that its pretty cool still needs a console though 😉

[Zzidovski]

Does this game have quick access to a console? That would be super awesome :)

I bought this game two days ago, and played till 4th map in the 2nd difficulty level, but on this map I have not enough units to kill the 3rd attacking hero. I'm not that type who likes cheat codes, but old enough (43) to not to waste my time to start the game over, so I would be happy to have codes as well in the campaign, but I couldn't use any of these codes mentioned by others in the chat window, and I couldn't get the console either. If there is a way to add more units to my level 21 hero it would be good. BTW 16th level of heroes are killing me easily even if I have purple items on me with good army. Maybe I am bad in this game I don't know, but I played HoMM 3 without cheat codes on high difficulty levels. :)
Thanks for the tip in advance to anyone who can help me.

I'm stuck on the 4th Loth mission. I could really do with a game balance update, a respec option or some cheat codes. I want to continue the story and only get a couple of hours a week to play
