Content Suggestion Site Administration CCTV Area/Room

Content Suggestions will be reviewed by Content Team weekly, please allow time as not everything can be reviewed at once.
What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
Add a CCTV Area/Room inside of Site Admin offices.

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
I don't believe so.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
-Site Admin can better overlook all of the Site through CCTV
-Site Admin/Ethics don't have to go all the way to Floor 3 to look over CCTV in all the site.

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
-Can't think of any.

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
It just makes sense for SA to have a good way of overlooking all of Site Operations without having to go to F3. Site Administration is supposed to be the department overlooking the Site, it just makes sense to give us the means to do so.
Other than benefitting us, it can be utilised by Ethics being stationed nearby, allowing them to have a way to also overlook Site Operations without going to F3.

i get that this is desired for convenience, but most people will agree that the lag situation is bad as is and the reason that there is hesitancy to do anything with the camera systems, especially adding any - is because these are not very performant. we already have five; the FL3 whole-site cctv area, the LCZ cctv area, the HCZ cctv area, the one singular screen before HCZ primary and the one in CI base for their camera

so for performance reasons, i don't think we will be seeing cctv additions anytime soon; there's also the sorta minor thing of this detracting RP from O5/A-1 if a resource unique to them is no longer unique to them, but that's like a whole balance thing that can be reasonably worked out

HOWEVER -
what you could do instead, is try and get LCZ cctv altered such that if you access it with a CL4 card or higher, it gives access to both LCZ & HCZ cams. i think that would reasonably fulfil your need for a cctv area accessible by SA & ethics, which would overlook pretty much all the site without adding a new cctv system - this would also add use and RP to a largely underutilised area of the map

It doesn't make sense for the department that manages the site to not have CCTV, it seems like the issue is more about performance than it is about the content itself

i get that, but there can't really be any content if the game's running at like 15 seconds a frame. i would recommend going for the solution i proposed, that's probably more viable
