Why No Escape Mode?

fusedtimeline 2016-11-27 19:26:38 UTC #22

after I finally noticed a few things on these posts that I missed the first time I read it I say:
@Jeremiah_G the original PC that includes escape mode is 60 dollars and the console is 30 dollars its half the price so you get half the game!
@D11_Nat I don't care about world of wardens i only use it to make a riot and send in armed guards with free-fire on i would rather have escape mode and BE a prisoner and be a part of a riot than play someone else's prison and make the riot and then stop the riot. I wasted 30 dollars....... Now I have to pay about a extra 60 for PC version and 900 for a PC.

ME: Actually the PC version of the game is only $30, although to get the bundles with other Introversion software titles and/or your name in the game costs like $50. I know cuz I own the PC version of the game.

ME: Since you don't seem to know or understand this I will reiterate here: Prison Architect on PC is done by a different company... It is done by Introversion. The console version is done by D11. When the game development for console was started by D11 there probably WASN'T an escape mode even on PC at the time. Which means that Escape mode was extra content for the original game.

Don't be dumping on D11 because you can't read. Escape mode for consoles was never advertised or mentioned at all until after the game was released when people went totally ballistic because the game didn't have it. Escape mode may or may not be something they can add to the game, but chill your jets and give them time to work it out.

Ask The Developers

Although i would love escape mode on ps4 i try my best not to complain so much to the point of annoyance because i know that game development takes alot of work and is a timely process. But i will say the game does get boring after a while of constant playing even if you love the game because honestly you dont feel apart of it as i think you would as a prisoner. I also think world of wardens would be much better if you could give other players set budgets, for e.g if i create a prison using unlimited funds i should be able to upload it to WOW with a set budget of $50 000 for the player who gets it from WOW. More advanced options for WOW basically. But i would like escape mode but thats all i can do, say that i want it but its not up to me thanks @D11_Nat

What I am saying is the main reason I wanted prison architect was because of escape mode I thought the console version had it I am complaining that I wasted 30$ on a game that didn't have what I wanted. I could have gotten black ops 3 instead but I chose prison architect did it have ANYTHING that said "Oh yeah it doesnt have escape mode"? No all I got was a boring game that you can only make a prison and watch over your prisoners and thats it, you can't even escape from it!

There hasn't been a update for months! I have been waiting months for escape mode. Introvison used to make an update about every 2 weeks double eleven probably wont ever make a update... Just like Ubisoft.

Look I get that your pissed but be pissed at the right person... you didn't do your research, you chose the wrong game... time to grow up and deal with it. They are not responsible for what you assume about their game. If you couldn't find the info, then you could have easily asked about it on these forums before you bought the game.

As for the rest of your comments... I am not even going to bother. Good luck with your gaming and have fun!

I didn't know the forums existed untill a week after playing the game. They didn't give a highlighted warning saying "THIS DOES NOT HAVE ESCAPE MODE AND PROBABLY WON'T HAVE IT"

HIPERKINGz 2017-01-13 22:09:29 UTC #30

Even before the game came out they said there was a chance ......................................................................... That is because im not bothered with writing any more just fgyujklo87643efghvr4rfbnhgdsazcdwe

Is there any possible way I can change my ownership of the game to PC? The only reason I wanted the game was for escape mode and now I can't have it. Do you want everyone to hate you guys for not putting it on console, or just stop being lazy, take a small risk and make it happen? I'm sure there would be many people willing to help with the process.

Hi Swaffles,

I've replied to this request via PM but just for everyone else we don't publish the PC version, nor do we have access to any of the platforms' stores/financial systems.

Do you want everyone to hate you guys for not putting it on console, or just stop being lazy, take a small risk and make it happen?

I've answered you elsewhere but please take my assurance that leaving out Escape Mode is nothing to do with 'being lazy' and avoiding a 'small risk'.

To D11_Nat
With your many replies to people of the console community about not adding escape mode, just why would you not add it they want I want and you should take that risk of adding it and try you don't know until you try it or I will Seidel with an mode where you can play as the gaurs and other staff but the guard sections but many people will buy the console version for the other features and escape mode and I would think an guard mode I could and the community would accept or both but to make the community happy you should do it for the the benefit of you guys and us take that risk or let modding be a thing to let community to have there ideas in the game just do it for the sake of the community and $30 will make it even worth it and what ever you said about the cons we don't care take the risk please Please D11_Nat PLEASE
