This suggestion has been denied and will not receive development.

Not open for further replies.
What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
Halved leveling rate for 079 to increase server health
079 Hack changed to Level 4 hack to increase server health
Increase 079's breach cooldown from 10 minutes to 15 minutes
Remove 079's "cognito hazard" ability, as it is unrealistic to the SCP ethos and decreases server health
Allow 22415's "Push" ability push back 079 or de-level him if timed right, this could be explained lore was as 22415 "Pushing" the Electrical / Bluetooth waves
Disable 035's ability to "Hack" SCPs, and instead supply him with a "Breach Tool". Perchance.

Buff SCP-9000-A-2 and SCP-9000-A-3 (I love you two)

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
This has never been suggested before.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):

Increases server health massively
Prevents SCP-079 breaches from getting to out of hand, while not stopping 079 entirely
Allows for new, exciting, and most importantly fun breaches to happen, such as 173/912 breaches
Allows for new players to get a good first impression of the server


Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
SCP players might have less fun(?) (By the same token, they might have more fun if they're allowed to try new SCPs)
Dev time


Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:

Recently, it has come to my attention that SCP-035 and SCP-079 have been running rampant ever since their "reworks" (buffs) back in December. While I could spend numerous hours of my life explaining how overpowered and unfair 035 is, that'll only be a small part of this. My main problem is with 079 and how blatantly BUSTED he is after this rework... And, well... *sigh* it's been weighing at me.

This server should, for all intents and purposes, be a fun experience. Allowing SCPs to run rampant and basically own the facility with no pushback is unacceptable. If this suggestion is accepted, I truly believe it would have a positive impact on this community. It creates a one-sided experience that detracts from the ethos of the game and alienates MTF who enjoy balanced combat.
Feeling powerless is an all too common thing for most MTF, so I think this would actually turn the tides a bit in their favor for a change. I’m not saying we should gut these SCPs entirely, but they cannot be allowed to continue to function in this state. Perhaps more strategy elements could be opened up for both of these SCPS.


I truly hope is taken seriously so we can keep the server as healthy as possible, where all players can enjoy themselves. Let’s work together to make that happen.

Server health. I actually brought a graph to depict the potential improvement to server health if this were to be accepted (See stats below)

SCP-079 and SCP-035 doesn't need a nerf anymore than they have already got one. It's easy to contain them if you coordinate through comms, respond to call outs, and not scream in comms how "OP" the SCP is. People constantly say the SCPs need nerfs, they have already been nerfed heavily. My take is just to simply have good comms and have good callouts, body mass callouts, location of where they are and where they're headed, informing people to set up at places to stop them or redirect them, ETC.

+SUPPORT
SCP-9000s could use a buff but at the same time there should be both good and bad SCPs to balance out the play styles.

You don't understand... This needs to happen for server health... I just... Wow. I can't handle this. I'm going to go drunk driving.

I craft, I mine, I took my time,

To build a castle with a view.

Two moats, twelve boats, don't want to gloat,

But there's so much that I could do.

Enchanting diamond swords, mob grinder beneath the floor,

Everything that I need.

I've got twenty tennis courts, I don't even play that sport,

Everything that I need.


But then the freaking creepers came,

Blew up everything in my game,

From my couch room to my kitchen plates,

All they did was destroy everything.

Yeah they destroyed everything!


Take number two, creepers: screw you!

I'll go where you cannot reach me.

I'll build a base in outer space,

Leave me alone, I beseech thee.

I just wanna live my life free from constant creeper strife,

Living safe and carefree.

Maybe down the pipeline, I'll relax and spend my time,

Living safe and carefree.


But then the freaking creepers came,

How'd they even get in outer space?

It's enough for you to go insane,

Because of them I am suffocating.

But then the freaking creepers came,

Planted me into a shallow grave,

Haven't got anyone else to blame,

I should have known this would happen to me.

Yeah it, it happened to me!


I've gained the wrath of all these mobs,

And I just wanna know why.

Whenever they get close to me,

They only want me to die.

I've gained the wrath of all these mobs,

And I just wanna know why

They only want me to die.

I figured it out today, I'll do things my own way,

I'll finally be free.

Suggestion Denied



Hi @Caesar Kuznetsov,

Thanks for taking the time to make a server suggestion.
The Content Team has chosen to deny your suggestion due to the following reasons.

I will go through each SCP one by one for reason of denial

- With regards to 079, the content team is actively discussing changes that could be made to this SCP to better balance the SCP after the rework and many of these suggestions aren't what we have in mind with current discussions. Furthermore with the last suggestion regarding 22415's push ability working on 079, We don't believe that makes sense with how the ability is meant to be used and the explanation doesn't give it much merit.

- Now with regards to SCP 035, the SCP is already equipped with a breach tool and we will not be removing the ability for it to hack SCP's out, SCP 035 is generally quite weak and what makes him viable for players in the first place is the utility he has the potential to acquire and we don't want to take away from that.

- For SCP 9K there are no suggestions to how he can be buffed so we won't be accepting any buff of the 9K instances.

We do appreciate this suggestion is coming from a perspective of increasing server health although we are looking into ways into improving the breach system as a whole to improve the health of the server from the breach perspective (You can get a good amount of insight if you look at the most recent poll in our discord).

Your suggestion will now be locked and marked as denied.​
