    Do you think some cheat codes will return in Starcraft 2, or will others replace 'em?

    Also, do you think we'll get NEW ONES? :good:

    I would like one that could allow you to get more than one Mothership or allow you to build on Creep for Terrans and Protoss or for Zerg not needing to build on Creep, and for Protoss allowing you not to build in a...Psionic thingy...

    Having never played anything Blizz made older than Starcraft, and most other popular games made before Starcraft, I must say that I never got the cheats' meaning at all. I still don't know why the "all your base are belong to us" cheat is so well-known, nor any of Starcraft's own cheats.

    Cheats are good to have fun alone but not in multi player, they ruin it there :mad:

    They always come up with new humorous cheat codes in every game. I'm sure there will be new ones this time as well.

    But I really don't see the point of having cheat codes other than for single player custom game vs comp to test things. But they can just give you a menu for this.

    It kind of defeats the purpose of the campaign mode if someone uses cheat code. Why not just make them have to work their lazy ass through the whole thing, at least they get a little practice time.

    Cheat codes don't work in multiplayer...

    As a kid I was much better in c&c games then in starcraft. Why? I only played singleplayer when I was that old and I could cheat in starcraft, in c&c I actually had to fight. So for little kids and sore losers: no cheats :good:

    There should be cheat codes. Sometimes we just want to have fun and go crazy with cheats. And this time there will be plenty of Operation CWALs ;)

    there is no cow level- has its roots in diablo 1 where there was a persistent rumor that if you clicked on a cow enough it would open a portal to a secret level. This code finally put a stop to the rumors.

    i think most other codes are song titles, but im not sure.

    also, i think modify the phase variance was from star trek:TOS

    I've seen that a long time ago, but I've never figured out what all that was about.

    Did all of that start off from some really badly translated game or something??

    'Twas the arcade version of a game called Zero Wing. The game itself was pretty much the same thing as any other top-down flyer-shooter, but the horrid Engrish made it a cultural phenomenon.

    i hope blizzards will not make any cheats yet. maybe after 6 months after the released of the game. so that we will not be tempted specially on the campaigns.

    I agree, sometimes the temptation of cheats are just too much, especially in the campaign.... but all the same they need to be stuck in there somewhere very sneakily... Just so I don't know them until after i've done the campaign...... Or maybe I should just be stronger-willed.

    I liked how in the original SC, 'power overwhelming' was actually said by an archon...

    (That song for all your base are belong to us is addictive :p)

    There was this one old game (I forgot the name of), that had extremely bad English. I guess the correct way is: "All your bases belong to us." But, it was quite a famous quote for old-school gamers. I guess Blizzard wanted to throw that in.

    Well, if you think about it: "All your base are belong to us" = "You're screwed."
