How to unlock the Cheater! achievement in Red Faction: Armageddon - Definitive Guide
Buying or enabling cheats does NOT prevent you from unlocking any achievements. Using cheats is actually a good way to beat the game on the hardest difficulty if you are having problems.
Once you finish the game, you can buy cheats. Cheats do not disable trophies. There are many cheats, ranging from unlimited ammo for specific weapons, to new weapons, to stronger melee attacks. All cheats range from 5,000 to 10,000 salvage. The cheats are as follows:
Unlimited Ammo – Price: 5,000 salvage per Cheat
- Singularity Cannon
- Pulse Grenade
- XNG-5000 (Recon Pack DLC)
- Nano Rifle
- Banshees
- Arc Welder (Recon Pack DLC)
- Charge Launcher
- Plasma Beam/Mr. Toots
- Plasma Cannon
- Assault Rifle
- Plasma Thrower (Commando Pack DLC)
- Rail Driver
- Rocket Launcher
- Shotgun
- Pistols
- Laser Pistol (Commando Pack DLC)
Weapon Unlocks:
- Napalm Laser: 10,000 salvage
- Convergence Laser: 8,000 salvage
- L.E.O. Rocket Launcher: 8,000 salvage
- L.E.O. Machine Gun: 6,000 salvage
- Lava Barge Turret: 6,000 salvage
Visual Modes:
- Sketch Mode: 10,000 salvage
- Night Vision Mode: 8,000 salvage
Other:
- Instant Nano Forge Cooldown: 10,000 salvage
- Super Melee: 8,000 salvage
Cheats become available after you have finished the game on any difficulty. They are located on the pause menu when you start a new game +. Cheats don't disable achievements and help immensely on insane difficulty. The cheapest cheats to buy are the infinity gun bullet cheats which all cost 5,000 salvage, but I recommend you buy the Napalm Laser for your insanity run. To get more salvage simply play Infestation Mode on the higher waves.
