Dead Space 3 Cheats

Changing view:
Use a text editor to edit the "system.txt" file in the
"...[username]\AppData\Local\EA Games\Dead Space 3\"
directory. Look for the following line: "Window.FOVScale = 1.00000000".
The default setting is 1.0 for a field of view of 75 degrees.
For a view similar to the original Dead Space, change it to "1.2".
Changing it to "1.5" will give you an even wider view. Note:
Change the "Window.WideScreen" line to "True" if you are using a 16:9 monitor.


Increasing frame rate:
Normally, Dead Space 3 defaults to 30 FPS, regardless of your monitor's
refresh rate. However, you can increase the frame rate to 60 FPS using
the following steps. First, go to the in-game video settings menu,
disable Vsync, and then exit the game. Open your video card control panel,
and enable Vsync (either globally or for Dead Space 3 specifically).
Then, start Dead Space 3 again, and the FPS should now be at 60 FPS
instead of 30 FPS. Note: If you do not enable Vsync in the video card
control panel, you may have choppy frame rates, screen tearing,
and even video card overheating.


N7 armor:
Have a saved game file from Mass Effect 3 to get the N7 armor from that game.


Planet Cracker Plasma Cutter:
Have a saved game file from Dead Space 2
to get the Planet Cracker Plasma Cutter when you reach the first workbench.


Defeating enemies more easily:
Whenever you exit through a doorway or stand inside or near an elevator,
enemies will leave the area. When enemies ambush you in a room accessed
through an elevator or door, return to the elevator or door and wait.
All nearby enemies will instantly retreat, giving you plenty of time
to reload and heal. Then, slowly leave the elevator or door's range
until the enemies return. Stay nearby, and you can easily step back
into range of the elevator or door to get them to retreat again.
Additionally, try using Stasis on a single enemy before standing near
an elevator or door. The rest of the enemies will retreat, allowing you
to kill each enemy one at a time. Note: This trick does not work on ladders.
This trick works on most elevators and doors, but there maybe an elevator
or door it does not work on. This trick can also sometimes make enemies
in some rooms freeze or begin to act as if Isaac cannot be seen.


Hidden message:
Take the first letter of each chapter and arrange them in order
to spell out the message "Brother moons are awake".


Unlimited items:
* Reach the area near the end of Chapter 8 and look for a small building
that must be entered by side-stepping a corrugated metal fence.
The correct building has a generator to the right, bunk beds to the left,
and an exitdoor ahead. Once inside, leave the room through the door ahead
of the beds. After the door closes, turn around and re-enter the room.
A random item will appear near the beds. Exit the room from the same door,
wait for the door to close, then re-enter to repeat the process.
The items are random, and may be sold or crafted.

* Reach the end of Chapter 13 and defeat the Boss. An auto-save icon
will appear while you move into a large snowy field scattered with crates.
Do not continue to the exit. Collect the tungsten and items from the crates.
Then, pause game play and select the "Save And Quit" option to return
to the main menu. Next, select the "Continue From Last Save" option
to return to the start of the snowy field area. The items in the crates will
have respawned and can be collected again as many times as desired.
