I want to start off saying im glad Prison Architect came to PS4. For me its one of the best games for me to relax, especially after a brutal session of Rocket League. I owned the game on PC & logged around 200 hours(would have been a ton more if my laptop wasnt a potato) having a blast escaping other peoples prisons. However, if youve played Escape Mode long enough, it may start to get a bit boring as there wasnt a ■■■■ of a lot to do.
i think itd be cool to have these features:
·select from one of the three available gangs; having the choice of starting as the leader, the lieutenant, or new gang initiate, & each coming with its own perks & challenges.
·Allow the player to create their own gang with presets or a small customization menu; perhaps choosing your gangs preferred contraband weapons, & how aggresive or peaceful they are when it comes to dealing with problems
·Set gang relations with other gangs, & the ability to affect those relations through ingame actions. Ex. Increasing a gangs like factor could be as simple as giving them contraband. Making a gang angry with you is a matter of going to one of their controlled territories for a bit of time.
·Add some sort of stealable document with important details, such as guard patrols/deployments so you can plan your escape/spot weakpoints in security. Could be held in either the security room(showing patrols only for the area the security room was at) or the chiefs office(prisonwide patrols exposed)
·if your able to overtake the Deliveries room, you should have the option of smuggling in contraband of choice, for a price depending on what is being brought in
·If the player is in a gang, the ability to become a Confidential informant could present a new set of challenges & objectives that ultimately help you get released quicker
I may expand on this later as its late at night, but just wanted to post to hear your guys thoughts/suggestions. Please feel free to expand on anything youd like!
