Idea for Making Use of Prison

[illWILL8455]

I have been having a lot of fun trying to bust out of the prison in free roam so I wanted to share it with you guys so that you could have fun with the idea too.

 

Now that we have the option to call Lester and get the cops to turn a blind eye for 3 minutes, it is possible to walk into the prison without instantly getting a 4 star wanted level. Therefore, I usually go all the way to the main gate, to keep things realistic, I either stay unarmed or have only a knife on me to simulate a shank lol. I then wait for the timer to expire, and then instantly make a mad dash for the entrance with a 4 star wanted level. This leads to all sorts of madness and usually ends badly, but it's always fun lol

 

This got me thinking about how to improve the odds of escaping. If you are in a crew, or playing with friends, then you could assign roles. It would be like a heist without the cash lol. There are multiple possibilities of how you could organize the roles but here are 2 ways that I thought of.

 

Way #1

 

What will be needed

- Inmate and 2 people to bust them out

- Sniper rifle

-Getaway car(s)/Chopper

 

 

-1 person is inmate, and walks into the prison as I mentioned above using Lester's ability to make cops turn a blind eye

 

-1 person sets up from a vantage point across the road in the mountains overlooking the main entrance with a sniper rifle

 

-1 person waits in a getaway car, or chopper close by

 

Once the timer runs out, the inmate will make a dash for the entrance and the sniper will help pick off the guards as they run out, then the getaway driver drops in and picks them up. At this point, they can either speed off, or pick up the sniper too. The sniper will be a ways off and if they use a silencer then they may not even have a wanted level. Either way, it would probably be ideal to have their own getaway car, since the inmate needs to getaway quick due to the 4 stars.

 

Way #2

 

What will be needed

- Plane/Helicopter

-Parachute for jumper

-Extra weapon for inmate once jumper lands

-Get away driver in car

 

1 inmate,

1 pilot

1 jumper

1 get away driver

 

This is a really fun idea that I'd love to try out sometime. In this concept, the inmate once again positions themselves inside the prison using Lester. Then as the clock ticks down, a plane speeds over, and a guy jumps out and parachutes down. Ideally the lower altitude the better so that they can land quickly to help with the escape. The inmate will hide behind a wall and try to stay alive until the guys lands inside the prison with him. The guy will then drop a weapon and the inmate will pick it up. Then they will attempt to shoot their way towards the entrance and escape. At this point, a getaway driver will swoop in and pick them up. They could help with the shootout as well since the guards won't be focused on who is coming in during the shooting. Once all three are inside the car, they can speed off to a previously planned location, and meet up with the pilot, and escape in the aircraft. Trevor's airfield is an example, especially if a plane was used.

 

These are 2 ideas that I had for potential escapes. This could be a way to keep things interesting and have a blast. If you guys have the same luck that I have then you'll probably be laughing about a lot of epic fails lol.

 

If you enjoyed these ideas and try them out then definitely let me know how it goes. I'm down to play too if a group wants to set this up. My mic is shot but we can work around it if you want.

 

Also if you have other ideas for escape plans from the prison, and what roles people would play then please let me know, I'm always interested to see what people think, and I've seen a lot of fun ideas on this site in the past!

 

*EDIT

 

Just thought of a 3rd way lol

 

Purchase or steal a bus, and coordinate the escape to where a bus blocks the entrance to the prison as the escape is happening. This will stall the cops and swat from getting in as easily. Ideally the bus driver and passengers will be armed and able to hold them off, and the getaway vehicle would be offroad capable as the main exit will be blocked.

Thats a great idea for when mission creator comes out. I like it!

Also get in touch with Retired Mafia on this forum, he organises heist related preparations every weekend and some weeknights also: http://gtaforums.com/topic/711466-heist-preparation/ it could be fun.

 

Edit: Are you psn or xblive?

Can you do a "capture" version of it?

[NoMeansPlayDeaf]

Fun idea man make it a game mode

[Andrew1980]

This is creative!! Like the idea!

Thanks! I'm XBL, my gamertag is illWILL8455

 

@vipprimo, I'm not sure if you could do it as is in capture. I'm sure that you could create something similar though. Maybe have it to where there is only one item to get and both teams start from outside the prison and the items are inside it. Turn wanted levels on and add in angry security guards with night sticks near the packages lol! That would be a fun concept!

Good idea, This will definitely be something I do with a few friends pretty soon.

Awesome! Definitely let me know how it goes!

[Glockinmypocket]

That sounds awesome actually haha, if you ever decide to do a lobby for this or anything let me know!

Will do! I'll post under the Find Groups forum if I do!

 

If there is any interest in setting this up, then definitely let me know! Who would be down to give this a go? lol

[SuperJude™]

What we truly need is a melee mode, mainly fists only but... with a BUS parked inside the gates!

 

OP - excellent idea btw.

We should try and figure this out sometime, Add me on XBL, My gamertag is SWS DrewFly123. We can put this idea in motion and see how it works.

 

Edit: I also have a theory how this could work as a capture. Each team races to escape the prison. Each person spawns opposite sides of the prison but none closer to the gate, Police, SWAT Team, and FIB agents fill the area of the prison, The ideal team is 8v8 and 2 handguns are given out amongst each team at the beginning, The forced weapon is a knife. Prison buses are located at the back of the prison and are required for capture, And the team is either allowed to kill the other team and slow them down, But maybe rather would not to conserve ammunition, Or is prevented from killing the other team which could be stressed during the pregame. Score limit is set to one capture, Each team has 10 mins to make it to the airport, Where a helicopter waits and fellow gang members for immediate evac to Vice City. Out of Los Santos Police Department jurisdiction, And under the nose of the FIB.

That is a great idea! I really like the capture idea, and it was mentioned above as well. I am not very familiar with the capture creator, but I've messed around with it a little. I am really looking forward to when we can design our own missions so that I can actually make what I'm doing in free roam a mission, but the capture creator does have a lot of potential. I like that you can add characters and choose if they are hostile or friendly to each team. I will definitely mess around with it more in the future, and may try to establish a capture that replicates this overall idea in some way. I really like your idea so if you create it, definitely let me know and I'll check it out!

awesome idea, I like to parachute into the prison in the middle of the night onto the roof/catwalks and wait until the blind eye timer runs out and try and shoot my way out on the rooftops, its really fun

I have created a prison break capture! The link for Xbox users is below

 

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/jobs/job/4F5kwZSroU-pY7olN5heIw?platformId=1

 

Download it and play it with your friends and let me know what you think! I'm also down to play it, just add me on XBL, my gamertag is illWILL8455

 

It is necessary to read the description in order to understand the concept of this prison break.

I have created a storyline where Boo Boo, a Chinese thug, panics when he gets arrested for shoplifting beer, and snitches on his homie to dirty cops so that he himself won't have to go to jail. This results in the cops busting Boo Boo's homie instead, and sending him(or her) to prison for years for dealing coke on the streets of Los Santos. Boo Boo feels bad for snitching so he is going to bust his homie out. We play the role of the homie who Boo Boo is busting out lol.

There are 2 teams that each start out inside of the prison. There is no real need to kill the other team except to just slow them down. The only weapon available will be a knife so as to simulate a shiv to shank other inmates or prison guards. The players make a mad dash to escape the prison once they spawn. There will be angry inmates coming at them with knives at first, so players can opt to avoid them or stay and fight. As players make their way through the main gate, there will be police officers running towards them. Since guards at prison can't have guns, they too will only have knives so players should be able to easily deal with them. Once a cop is killed however, they will get a wanted level. I highly recommend making sure wanted levels are turned on when you are hosting this so that there is an actual police chase to simulate the police chasing after you once you bust out of the slammer lol

This is where the players will hunt for one of the getaway cars that were stashed around the area by Boo Boo. These getaway cars are Turismo Rs so they should be able to hold their own in the cop chases. Once a car is taken, the mission is to drive to the small airfield where Boo Boo and his coke-addicted chicks will be waiting with a fully gassed up private jet to fly you to freedom

I had a lot of fun creating this capture. I really can't wait until the actual mission creator comes out so I can make this even more detailed, but this is still pretty fun in my opinion. I have some other ideas that I want to test out in the future to improve upon this idea, so if you like this, let me know and stay tuned for updates!
