What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
This suggestion would add a battlepass or a battlepass type system into MRP.

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
No

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
I think that overall, this would be a great fit into the server, firstly MRP is a combat based server which has sides of cosmetics which are somewhat rarely interacted with from my experience, with people only opening knife and weapon crates as a passtime and rarely engaging in trading for them or getting interested enough to save up for a knife/weapon skin. i rarely see people put money into the server for Knife Crates or Weapon Crates and i think a system in which players could pay for a way to earn these rewards much faster than the regular experience of earning money would be beneficial for the playerbase as well as for the server. Things that could be included into the battlepass are balanced permaweapons (Like a perma flare gun or a perma melee weapon, things that arent balance shifting) as well as knives, knife crate keys, weapon skins and weapon crate keys and also possible cosmetic things or temporary pac membership. MRP as a whole from my knowledge generates little revenue and adding a battlepass i believe could help to remedy that.

I believe players would progress in the battlepass by earning XP which can be earnt in a variety of ways both in peacetime and in war to encourage people to play the server. (I believe this could help with peacetime activities alot as people may be more encouraged to do things such as trainings for the credit XP and building / supplying fobs for the XP gain there.) The battlepass should likely be rather grindy to encourage people to stay on for longer. Our system of XP being how it is i think perfectly compliments the idea of a possible battlepass. I also think that this suggestion could be used for SCP however as im less experienced on SCP i wont reference how it should be done on there if this suggestion were to get considered.

To further elaborate on the types of things that could be in the battlepass:
-Knife crate keys
-Weapon crate keys
-Balanced perma weapons (As stated like melee weapons and things like flareguns or pistols)
-Knives and weapon skins
-XP boosted for the player
-Money for the player
-Small vpoint rewards
-Rare items like cyanide
-Temporary Pac3 access (Something that is rarely if ever bought on MRP)
-Killcam cosmetics
-Unique chat emojis

-Possibly money roulettes and boosters (probably 1 at most)

im sure there is much more that could be included however this was the basis i saw as plausible in my head. I believe that there should be a free and paid version like other games have, following a similar theme which has the free version with basic rewards while the paid version has much better rewards. (the battlepass would need to reset something like every 3 map rotations to keep things fresh while still allowing players time to complete it without slaving away on the server.)

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:

-Im sure this would require a decent amount of dev work (Although i heard something similar was done on darkrp)
-Players may complain that there is now a p2w aspect in the server, although i believe permaweapons already fill that role and theyre not a big negative to the server.


Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:

I think this could bring something new and interesting to MRP, it could also help to address the significant lack of revenue gained from MRP as a server. It was mentioned a long time ago about an economy reset on MRP, if something like that were to happen alongside this addition i can see it being alot more popular because of that.

-Support UNLESS there's a guarantee that some of this battlepass £ would get reinvested back into MRP for future updates. I don't really like the idea of battlepasses in general hence the -support as I think it's counter productive plus unfair to those that can't really afford it however, if it helps MRP updates in the future then sure.

Cosmetics are important for a server like this. Since gunplay and war being the main attraction to the server it would be nice to grind for skins and different kinds of extra perks that can enhance the gameplay experience.

Unironically if enough people bought one it could work. Battlepasses encourage people to play to unlock everything so it could help keep players on of it doesn't cost too much money like £5 - £15. And Ventz will get more money so we might get more stuff.

If this change were to be added to the server it would actually make me come back. I've always enjoyes battlepasses in other games as cosmetics is one of the best ways to spend your money. Even though cosmetics don't change the outcome of a war it might able to be something that server really needs right now. Cosmetic items havebmafe me feel like I had more freedom to weat whaterver I want to, increasing my enjoyment on a game. The reason I want this change is to go through is that I want to let other people share the same kind of feeling of freedom that I used to have on games with battlepasses.

I had never thought of MRP in this way and Aleem has really opened my eyes in seeing what MRP could become with the right amount content.

I'm not going to support either way because I don't play MRP but I'd really consider how this would look to any new player when they log on and see a battle pass. Personally I would think it looked like a predatory system that forced either a huge grind or opening your wallet and proceed to log off. Maybe I'm a bit of a boomer these days.

theres almost nothing that would give you an advantage within the battlepass i suggested, it would mostly just be QOL or cosmetic stuff
