Ratings and Reviews
Buddies?
So, I love this game and it's really good for speedruns.
However, I have two problems.
1. On Xbox and PC versions of the game you can have prisoners follow you and attack for you if they like you enough but when I try and do everything I can do make them follow you they just won't. Please add this.
2. The second thing is a bit petty but I'm sure I'm not the only one with this problem you see I'm a speed runner and so I got this game in June and by the time July came round I had completed all the prisons. This is because the game has a lack of content compared to PC. The other reason I have to back this point up is the fact that the Xbox has a few minor difference that make it hard to copy speedruns from other people playing Xbox. Guard duties are one of those things because guards with certain keys don't do the same things as the the guards on Xbox.
Broken guards
What keeps this game from being perfect for me is a weird bug I’ve been having with the guards.
So when I’m in exercise period (for example) a guard would come over and tell me off giving me heat even when I was doing as I was told and was in the appropriate room for no reason at all, the guard was also near the edge of the room if that matters at all. The other times it’s happened is in role call, and meal times, it’s also a thing on the Nintendo Switch version.
The only times I haven’t had this weird bug is in free time or in lights out. Please fix this.
Stuck??
I like this game a lot and I have been playing it, but I have a slight issue. When you have a job, you have a key, but when you lose your job, so do your key. I find this really annoying as if you are in your job centre you can get stuck in there and cannot get out. When you do, it will be in solitary confinement and you lose your progress if you have contraband items on you ( basically always to break out). I find this really annoying (please fix).
