Denied Nerf Ceiling Turret Knockback

[L.Saint]

What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
This suggestion nerfs ceiling turret knockback, to make it either very minimal or half of what it is now. If that's not possible maybe just the turrets on the route to surface.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
+ SCPs will find it easier to breach to surface meaning researchers and site staff won't get slaughtered for an hour.
+ More things for CI to deal with rather than raiding and killing on surface
+ More research RP opportunities for surface based GoIs
+ Allows for more unique breaches, meaning E-11 could be deployed to surface every so often.
+ SCPs that can be 'terminated' can have a surface breach.

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
- More SCP breaches on surface means more disruption to surface RP.
- SCPs will find it easier to get into breach shelters and spawns (If every turret is nerfed).

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
The current amount of knockback makes escaping to surface impossible without being 1%, this promotes a camping playstyle where SCPs will play around LPZ/LCZ to avoid these turrets and causing a massive disruption to foundation passive RP. Also I know that SCPs can disable turrets but that requires extreme coordination and 035/079 to be in every breach, both of which are rarely the case.

Also evidence of what I said about the knockback:

I get that the sentrys are there to stop scps from getting the surface

but the knockback is too op and scps lose all there health while trying to get to suface

This stuff is in place to make it difficult for SCPs. It’s fine as it is.

Also, just because the SCP is on surface does not mean that foundation RP resumes, it just means it takes longer for the code 5 to end because now combatants need to go to surface to handle it.

it's supposed to be hard, go up with a 682 or something to tank the turret

SCPs can already tank the turret. It doesn't need to be nerfed.

they literally cannot, half of them get to 1% and the rest like 682 and 7722 lose at least 80% by the time they reach surface.

Turrets are there to prevent SCP breaches. You can easily disable turret systems if you are an scp that can break it.

SCPs cant destory turrets

SCPs cant destory turrets

I meant the electrical box? I thought that is a thing that SCPs can destory. If not then it should be a thing / allowed.

No, only people who can make it so people who can destroy it, are079/035 if he hacks it. And then a foundation member has to break it

Shouldnt 079 be able to disable systems? It makes no sense that he cant access and disable it.

079/035 are the only ones that can break fuse boxes because they have hacking tools.

Hello, unfornately this will probably never be possible to implement, even if we wanted. This is because of the way the coding is, and to change this, it would need a full rework which would way too much time.

Moving to denied.
