Content Suggestion Nu-7 media room bunks

Content Suggestions will be reviewed by Content Team weekly, please allow time as not everything can be reviewed at once.
What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
[This suggestion aims to recreate the most underutilized room ever (the media room) into a new bunks for Nu-7, while recreating current SOP wing into a DEA wing (like the olden days)]

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
[Nein]

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
[To begin with, I'll start by saying that yes, I'm writing this in the interest of DEA, since I'm a director... but also as a change for Nu-7.
At the moment, SOP wing doesn't really feel like a wing at all... It feels like a spawn that we leave immediately, without actually utilizing it. Basically, DEA lives in a hallway... And not gonna lie, I'm jealous at ISD, for having an entire wing which actually feels like a place you'd wanna spend time, and work, discuss things etc.

I believe that, while Nu-7 and DEA are practically brothers in arms, we should still have seperate bunks. Media room is by far the most underutilized room EVER, and I know it's useful in some niece situations, like idk... Thumbnails for YouTube videos, or pictures with a blank background, and at the moment, the journalists... But actually making it into something useful, would be amazing. Could possibly even shrink it down, to save on server performance...

Now, DEA would inherit the current SOP wing, although I believe it should be shrunk down as well, so that it would actually feel like a place where DEA belongs... Instead of just being a random spawn that you don't wanna spend more than 3 minutes at

So overall, Nu-7 gets a brand new bunk, specifically for them, close to lobby and compound, while DEA gets their own DEA wing, which feels more like a home than a random hallways, that we'd actually wanna use!]

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
[Obligatory "Dev time"... Yes, mapping takes ages, I'm aware, and this would be a major project, to rework both the media room and the current SOP wing, but no one says that Rome has to be built in a single day...

The only other downside I can see, is Nu-7 being too close to lobby, not giving CI a chance to leave EZ before they're swarmed by Nu-7.]

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
[As I've already started, I don't believe dev time should be a factor in a suggestion being denied. Yes, it'll take a while to create, maybe even multiple months as most mappers are working on Site-9 as well, but I've seen things in the backlog dating back to 2023, which still hasn't been implemented, so yeah...

And again, DEA and Nu-7 gets some fresh new places to be, that feels more like their own, rather than a space you just.. spawn in]
 
Stole mine idea smh... But yes +Support

As it stands right now, NU7 & DEA are the only department/regiment without an 'area'

ISD have a wing.
RSD have a wing.
Medical have a wing.
GSD has security sector ( & D-block offices)

E11 have a giant bunk space (And HCZ to an extent)
A1 and O1 have their respective SC areas. (But are much smaller then either main regiments)

NU7 and DEA may have some rooms dotted in EZ/Lobby, but but not wings similar to the rest of site.


And yes, I agree with Media room being shrunk or otherwise converted and with rooms from SOP wing being removed.
 
+/- Neutral

I do think each department should have an area. Even ET&S has a small office for them. NU-7 should have an area too.
Although I would like to see the media room stay, I've used it only 3 or so times but it was very useful when I needed it. Its one of those things that it's better to have it and not need it then not have it and need it.
The media room is bigger than what it needs to be, for whenever I used it, I've only needed the blank wall and floor and the chocolate machine.

Blank wall and floor can be added literally anywhere else on the map, doesn't need an enormous room
And the chocolate machine... Same deal, just move it to medbay or some other hub area

I agree. It is a massive room for what it is, more than half of it is just decoration around it. I like the scene setting, After all that's what makes environments feel "real" but that doesn't do much good for a room that is rarely used.
What I'd honestly like to see is the media room being moved to PW, possibly a smaller version, That's where many other passive RP rooms are located, and where those most likely to use it are at.

I do like the idea of NU-7 have their bunks at Media room's current location. It would be a good spot for them.

Thinking about this more, I'm changing my opinion to +Conditional Support So long as Media room and it's functions are retained and accessible.
 
-Support SOP wing is fine? Has plenty of room imo and it’s not often people are in there.

Also media room is cool for occasional photoshoots 😃

EDIT: I just think SOP really isn't inside their wing as much as isd. ISD has a whole bigger wing because it is met for alot of people but SOP is only used for SOP and the meeting rooms can be used for SOP purposes.
