Lack of competition and willingness of players to stand out is what killed the server.

Too many players just holed up in the same gang/union/alliance or whatever making billions in a single base because they basicaly had 80% of the " active " playerbase with them ( By active I mean people who actualy try to base/raid, not the 24/7 afk shop owners you see on S1 ) causing a lack of interest in even playing the game because it's " too easy ". But yet refusing to split into different group to create competition because they lacked motivation to do so and also probably because it's much more entertaining and less troublesome to rek a few scrubs vastly outnumbered and outmatched in terms of gear and laugh at them than to actualy try to compete against the odds.

Because after all, why bother split into groups and risk losing when you can just have 20+ players in the same base and make ez pz money?

Also the lack of interest in the community by the dev/owners/cm who barely even listen anymore to them ( The keypad/button issue has been brought up several times by me and other people, I even had a few personal word with ha+ but yet nothing's done because " the rules are very clear " even tough when I bring it up in admin chat yet again I get 3 different opinions from 3 SA+ lol ).

Funny, I really don't feel Zarp is dead. It's pretty active and lively in my opinion, even though January is a pretty calm month.

Zarp will never die anyway

i personally stayed for the people i met and enjoy talking to

Personally the only thing I find enjoyable about SSRP is just shooting something. Server 1 is basically a endless cycle of PD raids and bank raids. Rarely are there any nukes or bases as its just too risky and money whoring players are scared to lose a nuke or a couple of printers despite having well over 4 billion $.

Server 2 has better potentinal, But its pretty much the same situation of server 1 but opposite. Most people dont bother raiding because lets be honest we all know they're going to get Tgunned or M202ed the second they enter the base. Raids are only really considerable to carry out if you have numbers advantage. Back in the day there wasent bullshit Jugg / Hyper suits, It was mostly skill based with M9K weapons and M9K weapons ONLY. Special weapons werent used like PSGs, People would literally quit for losing a RPG or M202. People also had more motivation to base back then, Because if they are actually decent players they could have a decent base going and profit. Now however, No scope boost, No game. Not to mention the atrocious hit reg that shit on top of the fact that a PSG is barely useable just ruins the whole skill purpose of the game.

Server 3 is just detroit pretty much.

Tbh the community is what's holding the whole thing together, I doubt most people would stay here if they werent so connected to the community. Zarp is really unusual though, Its perhaps the most diverse and split up community ive seen. Zarp is pretty much built up of 3 different groups.
1: SSRP
2: TTT
3: Remaining gamemodes

Its intresting how in TTT you meet people who you never knew existed or were in zarp and only find out about them when you finally get off SSRP for once. And its a nice breath of fresh air, Atleast for me personally. At this point I barely play SSRP anymore, It simply lost its color and taste that made it enjoyable and time worthy a while back.

The owners where creative when they first lauched these wheels and updates but since then its been all the same for 2 years and owners seem to care very little and work/uni is no excuse for that. They also focus on the newcomers rather than the veterans that doesn't quit after 3 months which is kinda sad

nO

I only really kept playing because I had a lot of friends playing and I didn’t want to just stop talking to them, but after a certain point it just wasn’t worth putting myself through the boring cycle of Zarp so I just stopped playing and now I have no friends
