Comfy Beds? How Inferior!

[D11_Nat]

Cold, Paul. Real cold.

[PaulFromAspull]

Cold? No no no.... I think you completely misunderstood. Breakout mode is this odd little minigame where you take a break from building and get a ball and paddle and have to hit bricks out of the way!

Why? Whatever else could you possibly think I meant?

(Besides, for real, no other jail sim type game has the charm and fun and strangely cute factor of Prison Architect. It's the Kellogg's Cornflakes of console incarceration simulation games... Y'know, the original and best.)

Ok I'm done grovelling now

[petulant]

Strange because when i put the blue beds in the cells i had no problems.

[PaulFromAspull]

Interesting. The rest of us had issues with the Comfy Beds not accepting clean laundry. The devs are working on a fix, but until it comes, inmates tend to riot if you give them a comfy bed because they don't get clean clothes.

[PaulFromAspull]

.... Which STILL don't appear to have been fixed.....

[D11_Nat]

MAYBE BECAUSE THERE'S SOMETHING HAPPENING TODAY PAUL! I bet you didn't think of that

More revealed momentarily!

[PaulFromAspull]

No, no, I didn't think of that. What's happening today? You have me intrigued...

NEW DLC: Psych Ward out 6th June on PS4 and 9th on Xbox One

Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuyyyyyyssssss! So I have been honour bound to keep this secret up to now and I'm sorry about that. BUT, I can can now let the cat out of the bag- There's a brand new, console exclusive DLC: Psych Ward. And it's super cheap! From the Double11.com blog post: In June 2016 we launched Prison Architect on console. In January, it received a free content update, bringing players sniper towers and exclusive textures. Now we’re super excited to say that players can download a console…

!!!!!!!!

[PaulFromAspull]

Okay, credit where it's due that looks and sounds awesome! I'm gonna go and dig through the sofa for some loose change! I'll be back when I'm done downloading!

[D11_Nat]

Good call! We made sure it was as cheap as humanly possible so you might well find the right change for it behind the sofa

Nat D11

[PaulFromAspull]

Okay..... Breathe... It's just a video game. Seriously, on first glance it's very VERY cool. Black Knight Asylum here we come! Plus, unless I'm mistaken there's even more new content than I was expecting. At least, stuff I've never noticed before. Sniper hills, plateaus, etc. AND I tested my biggest issue with the community update, the walls joining the hedges. I have to say, so far I'm seriously impressed.

So, Nat, all those times I was being impatient (where's the fix where's the fix, no REALLY GIMME the comfy bed fix!!) and you were so vague, that's because you knew this was coming today? I have to say, it was worth the wait.

[D11_Nat]

Yeah basically. My life is a series of non disclosure agreements! I knew there was a DLC and connected update coming today- I'm trying to get my mitts on a list of bug fixes and I'll let you know when I get it!

Nat D11

[PaulFromAspull]

From what I can see just messing with it, it looks as though its fixed among other things, most of the issues identified with the community update.

And for what it's worth, I really am sorry if I gave you grief by not being the most patient person in the world.

[D11_Nat]

No grief at all, Paul! Any frustrations I may have had were a direct result of not being able to say anything, not from dealing with you

Nat D11

[PaulFromAspull]

So, is it you in the trailer...?

[D11_Nat]

It may or may not be.

(It totally is. I don't normally sound like that though!)

Nat D11

[PaulFromAspull]

No one likes the way they sound when they hear their own voice though I don't think...

I REALLY don't think I sound like that, but clearly my microphone disagrees.

[D11_Nat]

Yeah but I'm 'doing a voice' in that trailer, that's nothing like my actual accent! I'm okay with hearing myself recorded, I've heard my voice many times outside of my own head

Nat D11

[barticle]

Another sneaky ninja update... I thought you were being suspiciously quiet again!

I think your voice works very well in the DLC trailer. Don't be surprised if you get press-ganged into more VA work for future D11 games and trails. Pay rise ahoy?

BTW you might want to have a word with Sony. On the UK PSN store the new Psych Ward DLC is listed as a premium add-on for the new All Day & A Psych bundle instead of the base game. Also they're still listing the previous All Day & A Night bundle for 50p more than the new bundle with both expansions.

[D11_Nat]

Thanks for the heads up Bart!

Yeah the store thing is funny- we don't set that as far as I know but we've now contacted Sony to point it out. There shouldn't be any operational problems because of how the content is delivered but it's really not ideal being able to see the DLC on the base game page! The old bundles are on their way out, there's just a little overlap.
