Pending Review SCP Combat

[Charles "Ze" Whitmee]

What does this suggestion change/add/remove:

This suggestion aims to add the following:
> SCPs will be able to damage other SCPs [Content]
> SCPs will not be allowed to Team without RP Interaction/Reason [Rule]

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

N/A

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):

+More accurate breach experience, SCPs would not suddenly work together during a Code 5 rather they would attack each other.
SCP-939 may attack anything that moves, SCP-076 may find a worthy opponent etc

+More testing possibility, RSD can have SCPs engage in fights for more immersive cross-tests

+Possibly shorter Code 5s

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:

-SCPs may find it less enjoyable to play

-Lower health SCPs, such as 035, may suffer more from dealing with other SCPs.

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
I personally believe it should be accepted to allow for more lore accurate breaches, where SCPs would engage would each other. Alongside the new testing possibilities.

(Although SCP-096 should be ruled out due to gameplay reasons)

If you can't Roleplay just say so.

It’s a combat server

 

[Advil Smith]

If you can't Roleplay just say so.

The whole teaming rule doesn’t make sense because some scps have a RP reason to work together, 079 and 682 for example. Also pretty much 079 and every scp tbh because 079 would want to see the site burn and not help them contain

who wants to wait upwards of 2 hours just to fight another scp for "roleplay" purposes

 

[Charles "Ze" Whitmee]

And that would be valid... I more refer to every single SCP working together despite never meeting once, tell me how on earth 9k would work with TG.

Yeah, because I don't care about players who just want to breach.

This is just a bandaid patch ngl
Also on uk breaches are handled near instantly without ERT so again…… us issue
Also
Foundation players on their way to do literally nothing when 0 SCPs, dclass, or ci are on

Possibly the worst take i've ever heard

The only times breaches are handled without ERT or nuke is if the SCP players are terrible or if they're a really bad match up like 912 and 049.

Foundation players do this amazing thing called.. roleplay. When nothing is going on.

Hi @Charles "Ze" Whitmee ,

Thanks for taking the time to make a server suggestion.

The Content Team has chosen to put your suggestion up for internal discussion.

Specific parts of this suggestion would require NL involvement and approval. This has been passed to NL, so keep an eye out here for future updates about this one.

Your suggestion will be tagged with the pending review flair and left up for players to continue to respond.​

I've noticed a lot of people wondering how 106 and 096 will work. I feel like 106 could just make an SCP teleport somewhere else in site one time while dealing a percentage of current HP on another SCP. 096 could just attack an SCP for a larger percentage of HP, but not kill them 1. because it'd be OP and 2. it could be similar with what happened with 682x096, where 096 just gives up.

All in all i fucking ADORE this suggestion. it's realistic, interesting, forces SCPs to actually RP to team up, prevents an 076 from just hauling around an 096 for half hour as easily, makes crosstests much more interesting, prevents CI from just flagging on SCPs and teaming up easily, lowers code 5 times so more RP can happen, and an endless list of amazing new concepts which would otherwise be impossible.

Like imagine the 008 breaches, how cool would a 7722, 076, 035 and 682 team up vs an army of 008s. They'd have to team up to survive as they're all sentient. I don't feel like 008s would attack each other for obvious reasons, just like how 049-2s wouldn't attack each other.

A great idea for a test could be 5 049-2s vs 2 008s.

How would reality bending work? Like would dissolve and head pop deal damage or would they be immune to it? If you think about it, this would indirectly give a much needed nerf to TGs, since they can't do a hell of a lot against hostile SCPs like 076 or 682, since i'm sure most of their abilities would be ineffective.

If the content team decide to deny this, i'm gonna crash out, riot and boycott ong.

THIS IS THE FUCKING SAUCE

I would fucking love and kill for a more accurate breach system.
049? He's wandering about, being a chill guy. You can talk with him and he's reasonable, but he's still a mad doctor.
7722? I want to see this guy speak like fucking Gabriel from ULTRAKILL, spreading God's word and attacking other SCP's he would see as evil or unholy.
8837? Man I feel bad for the lad, lil lad thought he was on the moon and was lied to. I wanna see emotional trauma Roleplay from the guy during a breach.
079 holy fucking shit what a troll this lad would be.

-Theres an all out brawl going on between the scps

That would be so cool, imagine getting 7722, 076 and 939 to just have an all out battle in the crosstesting room

Wdym N/A

Partially Accepted - Add SCP-SCP specific interactions for abilities, and enable "friendly" fire via that

What does this suggestion change/add/remove: Enable friendly fire for most SCP abilities. Add specific interactions for SCP abilities on each other, e.g.: 173 cannot target SCPs with the teleport kill, but can target them with left click - does a certain amount of damage, not instakill...

Anyway, everything that I said there, also realistically more-or-less also applies here 1:1.

I am once again stating that this idea has been tabled in the past.

 

[Charles "Ze" Whitmee]

I am once again stating that this idea has been tabled in the past.

Suggesting again (and a tad simpler) because I want to see this for breaches.

"We will be accepting this on the basis that this will only be possible when SCPs are not breached. This is to revitalise Research RP and give more interesting interactions for players to experience."

 

[Solus_16]

I am once again stating that this idea has been tabled in the past.

From my perspective, i think the idea is that SCPs will actually fight and be able to harm each other, in both breach and test situations. That just.. doesn't happen. There are obvious differences if you've actually read the suggestion and realise what it means.

682 hates everything, so there's no real reason for it to work with anyone. Especially since 682 knows it can't die, so there's not even a situation where they have to work together.

And with 079, yes he would want everything destroyed and burnt to the ground, so instead of interacting and possibly the SCPs coming to his CC to destroy him because he's an easy target, 079 would moreso help them from the background, e.g opening blast doors so they can get past without making the SCPs fully knowing of it's existence.

All in all few SCPs have a reason to work together. 049, 035, 079, TGs, 082 and 7722 have a reason to work together, they're all sentient, intelligent and aware of the situation they're on and so they could likely convince one another to work together to survive and escape. All the other SCPs wouldn't have a reason, so they wouldn't be able to team.

682 works with things that also hate everything which is pretty much 079 and thats a reason they work together. Also how do you wanna deal with 096? are the scps gonna put a bucket on him because he cant just be killed. what about 106 will they shove in a d class to fight him? and would 106 put them in his dimension? Lot of containment methods that make scps invincible to other scps unless they spend 10 years with dev time.

I've given suggestions about 096 and 106 in previous replies

And regarding 682, he just... wouldn't... If he hates everything, he also hates those that also hate everything. He wouldn't not hate them because they also hate everything. Makes no sense. 079 would just be one of the SCPs that sit in the background unharmable that would just help SCPs without them knowing massively.
