The Z-96 & Z-779 duo, dubbed "Good People", is a threat in Pressure, acting as a common hazard found in the Hadal Blacksite.

Appearance

Good People is a duo of two monsters, Z-96 and Z-779. While Z-779 has no physical appearance due to it being an AI program, Z-96 is a conglomoration of human flesh formed into a large mass and adorned with a weathered grey mask. Z-96 has two lengthy bone-like arms with three large claws in place of fingers on each hand.

Mechanics

In rooms with multiple doors, there is a chance for Good People to generate. One or more doors will be occupied by Z-96, with Z-779 displaying the number of the next door on the door's navi-path. If a player opens a door inhabited by Z-96 it will attack them, changing the navi-path and locking the door.

Notes

  • False doors can generate in rooms that require Keycards.
  • A door inhabited by Z-96 will have several visual and audio cues to indicate that it should not open. These include breathing and growling sounds and sparks coming from said door's navi-path.
  • If a node monster passes through a room with false doors generated, all false doors will change to their revealed state and the correct door's navi-path will turn off.
  • False doors cannot spawn underwater or in flooded rooms.

The Ridge

For more information, see: The Ridge

The Ridge completely lacks door numbers, and so it is only possible to tell whether or not a door is safe by listening for Z-96's audio.

Strategy

The best way to avoid being tricked by Good People is to be cautious of which door you choose in rooms with multiple working doors. Standing next to a door and listening for audio cues can help you make sure that you don't open a false door. If you can hear breathing, growling, or shifting then it means that Z-96 is behind the door.
