Introduction

This guide will cover all things prison related. You may skip to the bottom for the prison break guide!

Going to jail

After committing a crime on Altis you will often receive what is known as a bounty. After receiving a bounty you have a few options to get rid of it, either by paying your ticket or by serving your sentence in prison. There are several ways to be sent to prison - these are listed below.

  1. Handing yourself in. Going to any Courthouse and selecting "Turn self in (Prison)"
  2. Caught by a bounty Hunter.
  3. Caught by Police.
  4. Admin Punishment.

Features

The Prison offers many things including Prisoner Uniforms, Basket Ball, Weight Lifting, Stabbing Fellow inmates with Shanks, an Insane Asylum and creating License Plates which will reduce your jail time.

NOTE: Being put in jail due to admin punishment disables the "Press Plates" feature.

Jail Time

The calculation for jail time is heavily dependent on the charges and bounty when being sent to jail.

Maximum Time

  • 25 minutes when you turn yourself in or an APD Officer sends you to prison.
  • Maximum time is issued when sent to jail by an Admin as punishment.

The time spent in prison is calculated by which charges you have before going to jail. It is NOT based on price.

Note: Prison time is increased if you log off whilst in restraints as a punishment for combat logging. (You will not be punished for server restarts)

Paying Bail

Once you have found yourself at the prison you are able to pay to be let out. Your bail price is set in the top right corner of your screen find the White Sign and select "Pay bail"

To lower your bail price you first need Metal Sheets. These can be collected at the Dumpster Next to the white tents.

Once you have collected your Metal Sheets, take them to the Press Machine, and after successful completion of plate pressing your bail will be reduced by up to 200 seconds.

Prison Break Guide

Prison Requirements

  • Any weapon of your choice.
  • A get-away vehicle of your choice. (A helicopter is recommended.)
  • A group With at least 4-8 People {This is not a requirement to start the prison break, however its recommended to have a group to help fight off the APD.}


Method

  1. Start by uploading virus on the computer in the barracks building in the front of the Prison.
  2. Next, make sure you have a get-away vehicle. (It's suggested to land an Orca in the Prison Yard, as it makes for an easy get-away.)
  3. You will need to defend the Prison and fight off the APD counter-attack until you receive a notification that the prison break has succeeded.
  4. Get to your get-away vehicle and leave the prison, unless you want to stay and fight.


Additional Information

If you choose to escape from jail while you are a prisoner, you will receive the 'Escaping Jail' charge automatically. You may be sent straight to jail without a chance to be ticketed if you are apprehended by the APD with the 'Escaping Jail' charge.

Shank

To build a shank you must search the prison for Duct Tape and a metal sheet found in the Dumpster you can then craft the shank which will allow you to down fellow inmates.

Prison Locations

The prison is currently located at the Pyrgos Island.
