What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
Improve the new player experience, just a bit of context since I came to NHC I have noticed that most new players have no clue what they're doing after going through basic training and joining a regiment, I am personally trying to improve this by ensuring that PVTs get given try-outs as quickly as possible and when they're in the regiment they're shown what to do (i.e. getting in ts) try-outs currently provide no actual purpose aside from showing that they listened to faces and formations.
This made me realise that the whole try-out system is unnecessary (aside from STS and SAS) as whenever a PVT joins a regiment they have to be shown what to do, I am proposing that instead of a try-out system in each regiment they're allowed into a regiment of their choice (aside from STS/ SAS) provided a CPL+ is online to approve it, in this system a PVT would only be allowed to join a regiment along as a CPL+ is online to check that they're not just here to minge, instead of being given a try-out they're shown how the regiment works + the equipment that they can get.
IMO the current state try-outs are useless aside for STS/ SAS as all they do is go through faces/ formations which will never/ rarely be used.
Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
Improves the new player experience and means that the retention of new players increases.
Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
Cant really think of any please suggest any below.
Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
Improves the new player experience.
I made this suggestion as SL have denied me from testing this idea in the past.
