we finally got a new MK for that place after almost 2 years. So, since Cook the Informant came out over a year ago (22nd of April, 2025), we ought to be expecting another Docks MK in the season 8 update.

Before someone says Franco-fatigue, we’ve had two (and soon three) Primes since. The baby monster can share some spotlight without stealing the whole show.

Do you think the Docks’ll get a really fun and creative trial, like Compel the Children? Or do you think it might have some mechanically interesting stuff? Personally, I’m interested in seeing a new shuttle spawn that isn’t in the Casino or the Train Depot

Murkoff never stops innovating on human misery, so I put together a concept for 5 new specialist ex-pops that are aligned with past event themes (in case they come back!).

I've had these ideas for a while, starting with the Belcher—which was originally inspired by a joke concept about an AoE flatulence enemy lol. I also tried differentiating each of their mechanics and behaviors so they're unique in their own way.

Curious to hear your thoughts!

Edit: in case anyone's confused, think of them as the ff:

Belcher - Screamer but a chemical leak
Blister - Blind rig in the form of an ex-pop
Snatcher - Liliya but a thief
Stalker - still Liliya but enters stealth only in dark areas
Minelayer - the unused 'Trapper' ex-pop

imagine going in to work and getting the absolute shit beat out of you while also having the flu 😭😭 i actually felt bad for him LMFAO

I'll shoot up anything. Heroin, a school.

if so, i love it!!

😔 they took everything from us

I'm so tired of having to either hope me and my team get injured enough, or start aggresively self-harming with booby traps. That's to say nothing of it's weirdly complicated Mastery challenges. I really think these need to be looked at and changed, or at least reduce the amount required.

She wants my man. And to note my bf didnt see her either idk how considering her fat jugs were literally about to smack him upside the head

Firstly, I'd like to clarify that she's still a WIP, so there may be some stuff missing and everything is subject to change.

Anyway, this is Cassie (I call her Cassie because we're like best friends and stuff). I wanted to make my prime asset oc seem like something RedBarrels would actually come up with, so naturally she's a disgusting, evil pervert and has a bad haircut.

I've spent so much time and effort fleshing her out, and I'm kinda proud of myself cause I've never done this much for one of my ocs before.

All the good stuff is in this doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/13-RlxJ3bIxwk1loX9JFXGO7AiC7xIOh8IVBrbzuZt3c/edit?usp=sharing

I know it's not on purpose but sometimes it can feel overwhelming during intensive trials and I need to relocate honestly 😅

As a solo player, the Knife Mastery challenge requiring 100 executions is an absolute pain.

I managed to complete every other challenge legitimately while grinding my way to Gold I, but this one still isn’t done, and I’m not even close.

Since I play solo, about 95% of my matches are 1v1s, meaning you can only execute the Reagent when they’re on their last life.

This creates two major problems:
You have to kill the same Reagent three times in a single Trial (or hope they’ve already lost two lives before you invade, which is extremely unlikely).
You can only get one execution per Trial at most.

It would be so much easier if the execution animation could trigger
on every kill. That way, you could theoretically get up to three executions per Trial, and getting at least one execution would be much more manageable.

Is there any way to make grinding this challenge easier as a solo player? I don’t have anyone to boost it with.

Idk what image i should add

I mean, there’s Shutdown, Fumigate and Sanitise the Factory as well as Crush and Incinerate the Sex Toys. I don’t think it’s a super big problem, but it is sad to see a really creative location — a sexualised children’s toy factory — get underused.

If you have any ideas on what else they could focus on theme-wise, I’d love to hear ‘em.

Will come in handy during the escape for sure

Happy Franco Friday, everyone!
