Speed Chemicals poll and discussion

['Mediator']

What do we think guys, speed chemicals yay or nay?
I personally dislike them very much so nay from me

 

[Dusk]

Any chemical that gives an inherent meaningful advantage in combat or in any other situation should be either completely reworked into a system where it's harder for consumption or completely renovated for something only research related.

If CN. Has no further plans to expand the chemical roster I don't see the reasoning behind even keeping it on the server.

I think the chem system can be fun, I like making chems cuz it itches something in my brain and I may also be biased due to being a DoM but.... The main issue is the fact CI abuse the fuck outta the chem system because of the funding they have compared to SOP and MTF. You'll rarely see Foundation use anything besides potent, anima and cortico during codes if I'm honest. I think the chem system is great for roleplay and some of the chems are a genuinely good counter to CI and SCP's who are hunting non-combatives, without them on the server I think it'd be a lot more boring. There just needs to be stricter rulings imo.

Im not anti-chem but if combat and server health will benefit from their restriction, then by all means, restrict em.

icl twin you are really good at ragebaiting me...

Wait i gonna put my piece, if all speed chemicals get removed i would so fine with that i'm pretty sure like half of the people use them just to match others, the difference between having potent on surface and not having is fucking crazy.

CI makes their own funding. It’s a skill issue that others don’t, I literally worked my ass off daily for weeks in order to get R&D from not having a sales team to the place it is now. Not a single bit of money was ever spawned in for us, unlike foundation which gets upwards of 600k a month from SL

Sorry to say but it’s just a skill issye

You have a entire RSD department...

I personally think the speed chems are fine ngl speed chems in my opinion are really accessible to the public with potent costing barely anything if you scavenge and make the materials from scratch.

The funding which you state CI has was built from the pockets of CI players. Members of ARUC (CI Chem Team) put a lot of time into creating these chemicals for the sole reason to gain an advantage, there is nothing stopping Foundation from doing the same there is just a serious lack of effort to do so. Next, I believe I am correct in saying Foundation actually receives funding from SL which could be used to create more chemicals similar to how CI do. Lastly, I think a lot of people, especially on the UK Server, dislike the chemical system only because CI has the advantage in that area. Trying to get a whole system changed just because your faction is lazy and slacks in that area just seems childish.

nerf speed chems and buff containment beam and add another use for decontam foam where it slows or something, bam speed chems are nerfed and breaches don't become harder.​

Honestly, I agree a lot with what you're saying but I still think chems as a whole need a rework, CI just kinda show how cracked it can be if you put the effort in. (I respect the fact they all fund their own stuff, Foundation are just kinda incompetent with funding as a whole even with SL helping...)
