I'm banned from the MRP discord so I guess I will put it here.
Currently the numbers for MRP are kinda sad to see. Nearly missing a war due to numbers mid day on a half term week is laughable, and this hasn't happened once or twice, i've seen it nearly skip because of numbers mid day all week.
This could obviously be down to multiple reasons. One being players leaving to play other server e.g SCPRP but I think there is a major addition to the server that has directly impacted the amount of new players sticking on all through a war and continuing to play the server. The new medical system introduced a couple months ago (don't have access to changelogs and didn't play when it was introduced so dunno the date) is awful in keeping new players interested in the server.
Unfortunately, however many times you try to shove some sort of "squad playstyle" or shit like that down people's throats it's never gonna work. Especially for new players. Imagine loading onto a server during war as a new player, not knowing anyone, and within one gunfight you'rewalking stumbling around until you get killed. No one playing medic is running around BF style reving people as thats not what the server / gunfights allow for. Even if you manage to get a kill you'll be slowly bleeding out and stumbling around for ages. If that was my experience in my first war I definitely wouldn't continue to play.
I'm not saying this feature is completely the reason the server numbers are shit but this is one of the many. Reverting this change back to how it was would definitely help imo. I guess other people can leave their opinions on whats effecting server numbers / their opinion on my comments above.
