Make prisoners die when they go onto electric chair

Postby orangewarning » Fri Jun 06, 2014 3:47 pm

I noticed you can switch it on/off

When its on everybody on it dies.

Make it happen please.


Need to kill Benjamin Page ASAP!!!


I don't think 1000+ hours of solitary is good for him!

98% reoffending chance.

Need to get rid of him ASAP.

Please make electric chair kill people please...

No. We've been over this about a zillion times in the last two years. Prison managers do not make decisions about who should be executed. That is a job for the courts. Execution will never, ever be a punishment available to the player in the policy settings. It isn't going to happen. It is likely that executions will remain part of the campaign/story mode, and it is possible that death row inmates (i.e. inmates sentenced to death by the state) may become a part of the sandbox mode, but execution will never, ever, never-never be an option for punishing bad behaviour in the prison.

I agree. When you want to kill people, play dungeon keeper instead.

You already can do that... Place the electric chair in showers and then turn it on.

BRB trying it out...


Some people in this game don't understand how my virtual world works...

The prison isnt in real world k...

If I want Benjamin Page dead, I want him dead. I don't want to play Dungeon Keeper, I can't kill Benjamin Page in dungeon keeper.

They do need to put in the option, i think, to make the player decide if he or she what a prison with deathrow.

But it not up to the player to sent someone to there death.

And yes it's game but games have rules too and by the look of it. There don't seem to be a rule that says kill your prisoners on command.

I would imagine that in sandbox mode a death row would work very much like other things: it would be optional, there would be a grant associated with it, and the player would have a choice. I don't see it being optional in a campaign mode (either it is in a campaign map or not, and the player must complete the level to move on).

I think xander has said it pretty well. Any campaign mode should be IV's creation solely, and they're going for a reasonably realistic approach. A sandbox mode would have these (choosing yourself who is executed.) sort of options in it.

That isn't what I said. I said that a death row could be included in the sandbox mode, and the choice to build it would be up to the player. Who is sent to death row would not be (Chris has already stated this pretty explicitly, in one of the reddit threads from last year).

I can pretty much guarantee that it will not work that way.

no I am willing to bet both my nuts (not just the left one) that it will not work that way.
