Common Suggestions
Hello. This is a list of suggestions that have been commonly made and denied for various assortment of reasons. If your suggestion fits as one of the ones here, it will likely be denied. While we understand that some of these might be good general ideas, they would not exactly fit the servers for a number of reasons.
Nu-7 Juggernaut: Always been denied due to the fact that Foundation has the numbers, while CI does not. CI doesn't get a slot increase therefore they have a juggernaut to compensate for the lack of slots.
CI Slot increase: Was denied by Cloak personally, it's to not unbalance the gameplay loop as CI is not supposed to be the primary part of the server.
SCP-963 aka Dr. Bright: Due to the controversy behind the SCP and its creator, the SCP will not be added to the server(s).
SCP-343: 343 will not work with how the server works, if we had less killing then yea it could work. But we have constant killing going on and this would disrupt the loop.
Day/Night Cycle: This is currently not possible due to source engine reasons. And will most likely not be needed with the upcoming map updates to increase brightness and visibility on the surface.
Make Surface daytime/remove snow: We are keeping the snow theme because it simply fits better with the overall theme of SCP.
MTF Suggestions; "Add this MTF!": We don't really accept these because we add MTFs and decide who to add based on the content we add on the server, seeing which one fits best.
GOI Suggestions: Same thing as for MTF suggestions, based on the content we add through updates, certain GOIs would be good to add while some aren't fit.
Remove TeamSpeak: We have TeamSpeak as our main voice communication platform because of its reliability and low use of computer resources. There are many other reasons, but we will not be merging everything into Discord and dropping TeamSpeak
Job Slot Changes: Changes being requested to job slots (Increase / Deny) will no longer be accepted due to finding an appropriate medium between all job roles (This includes assistant jobs)
Combative Chefs / Researchers / Engineers: These roles are frequently suggested however we are not currently looking to add any combative variant of any of the Site Staff or Research categories.
Add / Change Perma-Weapon: Perma-weapon suggestions will no longer be accepted, as they are decided by Ventz on when they are implemented, although we do appreciate all the suggestions, at this time, they will be closed and denied.
Server Specific Suggestions: Due to the way Content works in Civil Networks, the content syncs and must be as close to 1:1 as possible (Permaprops etc. are exempt), however we cannot add just a set of models to one server and not the other or server specific content for USA that does not appear on the UK.
Crediting: We will no longer accept crediting (XP) based suggestions unless there is an exceptional reasoning behind this.
SCP Suggestions: We will not be accepting SCP suggestions if the SCP or suggestion falls into the current category;
Site Administration Disguise Cards: This has been suggested countless times, and denied countless times. Site Administration are publicly accessible and known leaders of the Site which require no need to covertly disguise around their own site to conduct their public duties. This is the gameplay we want to keep oriented towards Site Admin.
Loadout Suggestions and Balancing
Hello, This post is to serve as a guide for when requesting loadout changes, due to the fact many suggestions are not fully thought through when it comes to these, which results in "Please give us X gun because someone else has it" or "Give the commander the same weapon as X class because commander". The Content Team will no longer be accepting suggestions in relation to loadouts that are not thought through with adequate reasoning. Reasons that will not be accepted;

SCP Suggestions: We will not be accepting SCP suggestions if the SCP or suggestion falls into the current category;
- SCP is controversial - i.e SCP-963 Dr Bright
- SCP is a "meme" i.e SCP-420-J
- Suggestion is not thought out i.e Suggestion is short and lacks substance, or there is no thought into the gameplay / rp loop of the SCP

- <X> Class / Faction has this, we should have <X>
- In lore, we are supposed to be OP
- In lore, we are supposed to have XYZ
- I don't like the gunplay
- <X> Gun is broken and does not work as intended
- <X> item would make sense for our class to have for <thought out reasons>
