Ah! I'm starting to understand what's going on now since before I was confused if Name In The Game characters were going to be transferred from the PC version or if the ones who bought it for PC (like me) get a free key code for the console. I searched deeper through related topics until I heard about the pre order Name In The Game bonus opportunity I assume that chance is no longer available from the looks of things lol
Hello, this is from someone who has bought this game on pc and console, buying it today I wash absolutely shocked to not find escape mode anywhere in the game. Escape makes up a huge part of the game on pc and not including it makes sharing prisons almost useless.
The developers have claimed they may add it if there is demand and I just want to express my extreme disappointment at seeing this feature dropped from a game that seemed to have a solid if long development history. There are no other extra features on console that make up for it and it feels incomplete and something I cant recommend without it, for all the times I have felt that the devs came through they really dropped the ball on this one.
Hi @xDark013,
Here's my advice from another thread on contraband levels:
Yeah it's just one of those things. If you've got a prison with a lot of work spaces that the inmates can legitimately access, you're always going to have high contraband. There's no way to really stop it altogether unless you remove access to the contraband. Plenty of metal detectors, guards, regular shakedowns will keep it under wraps but it will always be high. I'd maybe recommend having a look at the Contraband menu and seeing what the common items are. Maybe they'll point out areas where your security is a little more lax.
The prison I'm currently playing has VERY high contraband levels but I'm also pretty secure and the inmates are all happy so there's no big drama

I'm pretty sure you can you just need to wait a while before the bank will lend to you again. I've never had my rating shot so I'm not 100% but everything I can see in notes and on guidance suggests it's the case. Give it a day or two in game and then try again, let me know if not and I can do digging.
