Jack Rudd Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Does it matter if it is? Will it impact on anyone else's game? Will you learn the location and correct use of the SHIFT key?

baker.simon Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 IMO, its not really cheating as its your own game. However, and its only my opinion, your cheating yourself by changing the starting point. If you get a takeover in game, then thats how the game went. The mere fact you have to ask the question, as have others, makes me think you already know if it is cheating or not.

ashley7 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 again its your game if you want to do it then fine no one can really stop you but if you have to edit something its kinda hard to argue that you havnt given your team an advantage. but just play the way you want. if you think its more realistic go for it and have fun. who really cares as long as you dont brag about how you managed to sign player so and so in your first season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dregganor Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 It's your game, you should play it how you want. Just don't come onto these forums and start bragging about your exploits if you've edited the game files. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

markymarky Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 £100m isn't really that much, is it? There are obvious questions to raise about the point of playing if you, say, give Barcelona a transfer budget of £500m, but if all you're wanting to do is give your favoured team enough money to compete with the big boys from the get go, then go for it, why not.

markymarky Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 but hey, if giving Barcelona £500m is your thing then go for that too. As has been said, it's hardly harming us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jops14 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 as Gerd said: It ios cheating, but its your game, do what you want! I'll be honest, i often create my own team in the conference, give them 200M, and then create the team i play for, but give everyone world class abilities lol. SO in other words, do what you want.

x42bn6 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 It's cheating if you benefit, obviously. But there's nothing wrong with editing your game (unless you don't want to cheat) - it's your game, and if taking Liverpool's bank balance and sticking a minus sign on the front in an editor is your idea of fun, then by all means, do so.

heathxxx Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Given that the game comes with an editor, it's entirely up to the individual what they do with it. For what it's worth, I play saves without the editor or third party programmes, I also play saves with them. Depends what sort of an "experience" I want from that particular save. So for me there's no need to ask others if it's cheating or not. If you're enjoying the game you're playing that's all that matters really. As for the bitching that's going on in this thread between a few people... cut it out! You don't want me to get all Travis Bickle on you now do you...

Smudge249 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Definitely not cheating mate as many have said its your game and with the built it editor SI have given us many options to play around with how we want the game to work. In a Leyton Orient game i have running i gave a few of the premiership poor boys a new bank balance to see how they would get on if they had Man City´s cash pot. Wigan, Hull, Fulham, West Brom, Stoke now have a few quid to splash and even though they havent been buying all the worlds superstars they have bought other players and its been quite interesting to see how they can compete.

torquay nezza Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 its not cheating. but and here's my question. would you get more enjoyment from starting the game with everton , no editing and just make them the best club in the world , im talking 20 title's on the trot. if you edit at the begining and then they become the best team ever you'll always have that thing in the back of your head which says you did it with an unfair advantage. start from scratch no extra money and build your team the way it should be built , (with a mix of world class signings and a good youth policy) ... once maby 4 years in i try and bring 1 youth player through the youth system every 2 years. its always nice when half the english players at the club are being called for the full england team and knowing you brought that regen through Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiitastic Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 whilst people may say its ur game and u can have it anyway you want, it is still classed as cheating. its just like saying ...

Give Everton lionel Messi, C Ronaldo etc .... and all that type of junk. yes and no, its not like he is giving them the players. would it be classed as cheating if everton did get a new board in real life with millions to spend yet some people do not update the game to reflect this? cheating is a very grey area, is looking at a player list on here cheating, checking out a new tactic, reading the game instructions about tactics....the list can go on.
