TOPIC: Replacing USA server MAP with NEW ones

We have a lot of plans currently that we are dicussing for the future of the maps on the server which we've laid out for 2021, however to outline the key reasons we can't do this immediately, we need to ensure that both servers have the custom features which make ZARP different to other servers (bear in mind we are trying to both bring in new players and keep existing ones, in order to do that, we can't just sacrifice a bunch of features), which includes the Casino, Bank and other features coming in future updates (namely the GenCorp District).

The difference between the UK and USA server is something Chute and I discussed at great length a while ago when we made the change to the same map as S1 and decided to only have the UK and USA servers for the time being rather than 3 different servers. In short, we want to keep the servers pretty much the same in terms of their features and content, as we want to give players from both regions equal opportunity (if for example the bank is not a feature on the USA map, it will be much harder for US players to do bank raids). We want to be enticing new players to join both the US and UK server, so the point above regarding having the custom features on the map also applies to the difference between the two servers (they should both have these features).

For this reason, if we were to make any change to the maps on either server, then we would have to ensure that the features were all ported across, whilst this is something we can do, we have a lot of other things at the moment which we are prioritising, as this of course would take a lot of time and effort to do properly.

you talk about a fact which is totally inconsistent in your opinion why they are withdrawn the server 2 rockford and Server 3 Evocity which was replaced by the same server with a different system in terms of price? it won't make sense for them to do the same thing again, they have their opinion on that and so that's why I say this suggestion is useless overall

In addition they will have a lot of time to devote to this whether it is the rotation, the addition of the elements of the s1 server like events, casinos, air drops, helicopter rental etc ...

Most people on here are from europe, so server 1 is always fuller and people from the US go there as a result. No one goes to a dead server for 50 less ping unless youre gonna base for days. Most of the time you can't even have events on server 3 cause theres not enough players. If you were to change the map every so often, there would be at the very least a temporary boost of players every map change allowing for more discoverability.

Also, if youre concerned about new players not having access to bank raids and stuff, you've gotta realize they cant do that anyways. Having a guy with 1000 hp instantly kill you scares away new players a lot more than not having a bank raid at all.

Alrighty well I was kinda being nice with what I put it was more of a cover up to: No one gives a fuck apart from you about certain stuff, people want somewhere new to be able to use the items they own and also to have other people come back to use them against, I know it maybe hard but picture yourself as a regular ssrp player in its current state on the current map, its pink lemonade uncontested everything to the point they are raiding themselves like holy fuck, nothing against em lmao they are free to do whatever. The way I see it SSRP is currently gridlocked and will be until someone major happens which I am hopeful for, its hard to be honest about it because I know the amount of work that goes into it along with a fuck ton of time and passion for the server so please don't think im ignoring that. I think a map change one 1 out of 2 servers would be a case of pleasing a lot more people than a couple people who want to raid the casino twice a day instead of once. On top of that it could bring in new players due to the fact hidden printing could return on the larger maps such as evo/rockford and a new meta could bring back older players. I hear what onion is saying don't get me wrong its pros v cons in my eyes lean to a change

i like this idea, but i know it will not be a thing, there is too mutch backend taks thats go on to build a map aswell as the npc's and events etc.
