Content Suggestion Add a bio-hazard wing to the site and some bio-hazard SCP suggestions.

[Ratman99]

What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
It will add a biohazard wing to HCZ and/or LCZ and add the following SCP's (as quick examples):
SCP-009 - Red Ice
SCP-047 - Super Bug
SCP-020 - Unseen Mold
And potentially move 008 into a bio-hazard wing with other horrors

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
I dont think anyone has suggested a specific bio-hazard wing. I have seen somone suggest a specfic disease alternation.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
It will increase the amount of SCP's on site that either have a passive or active bio-hazard breech
It should give more utility to code 3 and bio hazard units and items.
It might make 008 breeches more natural or not as metagamable, if say there are multiple quarantine cells that give the alert.


Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
The amount of work involved.
It might make guarding the specific bio-hazard SCP's too easy for anyone to actually breech them.
It might make it even harder to get testing done on any one of them.

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted: I believe this should vary up the amount of bio-hazards that happen on site and give more depth and utility behinds the mechanics behind them (scanners, Code-3, testing kits, decon foam etc). And it might deepen medical RP to actually properly treat outbreaks etc of not quite 008 shoot everything tier, but not quite as minor as a normal flue or something.

Gives Bio-Hazard Researchers more SCPs to research as well as great suggestion in general. Maybe don’t change where 008 is as it’d make it super hard to breach plus it is heavily redacted to CL4. Could possibly let us have MTF Beta-7.

More of a long-term endeavour than anything.

EDIT:
That being said, this is definitely an appropriate direction to take new SCP development - In terms of "normal" SCPs, we've kinda sorta saturated everything? So this would end up being pretty fresh.

What would lowkey be really cool is if a player got to flag on a SCP job for a biohazard SCP and they basically get to play Plague Inc. That could be interesting.

The unseen mold would be very interesting and another thing for Devon foam and scanners to use

This could just be a GM thing. The site already has quite a bit of CC's that aren't used, could end up just being like that after GOI's steal them.

1: biohazard researcher would actually be a useful job
2: biohazard scps in general are super awesome and can invite a lot of great roleplay, like with what happens if you infect X Y & Z or how this virus spreads, or if it like terraforms the environment but to a cooler degree like with 008s spores for reference

honestly amazing idea, adds more variety to the foundation for bio hazard SCPs! I always wanted todo testing on a Biohazard such as 008 but since it's so restricted 008 is kinda useless however this suggestion would increase ALOT of biohazard testing whilst adding 008 into that same wing could reduce the chances of ever being able to test on biohazards they could possibly hide 008 behind a blast door locked to CL4 but not have any labeling infront of that door which states what's behind the door thus allowing continuous testing of biohazard scps pretty much eliminating the con of doing this.

008 can just go in a more obscure CL4 Bio room with no label. Hell, dont have any scps with labels, let it be a thing of a need to know basis for all the biohazard scps.

But yes we need more code 3 reasons, and code 4 tbf more cognitohazards would be cool

Bio researcher rn is in a weird spot since you can legit just get biohazard suits from a dispenser as Sr Researcher. It'd be nice to give biohazard a set of SCPs to test on, maybe expanding the hcz inanimate to add all the biohazard scps because having any biohazard in LCZ was a huge mistake, just look at 427 and 409 when they were in LCZ.

Not on UK. All of our storages are in use.

Any content that adds new SCPs to the site ends up benefiting all departments in some way or another.
Research can do more, allows for new chemicals, gives a larger map, more systems, mechanics, etc.

Its essentially the best type of content to add to the server.

Thing is a while ago (at least on UK) Bio Researchers had a bit of info on 008 (correct me if im wrong) and they were the only non whitelisted job to know something about 008 (also you could do research on it if approved by CL4+)

But for some obscure reason they removed it, so now Bio Researchers is just another Sr. Researcher... I don't even know if Bio Researcher is still getting inmunity to 049 and infections like e11 bio specialist.

As for the suggestion, code 3 are barely used except for 008 breaches so, + Support

+support only negative thing out of this is dev time which is what they get paid for anyway. If they don't get paid... what are you guys doing
