Giant City Raid? Nope, Just a Regular Zeppelin Arrival! Mass Crowds Bring Back the Awe of the MMO

Starym's Avatar by Starym

We don’t know exactly how many players jumped into the WoW Forever launch, but if we go by the Beta numbers, it’s quite a lot. And nowhere is this better presented than in the boats and zeppelins arriving at their destination!

Quite the Crowd

Forever has recently had some issues with its layering, with players complaining about sparsely populated areas. Then there was that time a whole lot of layers were merged together, and Westfall became extremely overcrowded. However, one particular instance of strange layering is being celebrated! Many players have commented on enjoying the masses that form up when arriving at their destination. Cibranith documented one of these mass arrivals, with a stunning number of players in the same layer at the same time.

Whether it’s the crowdedness of the deck, the rain of players dropping from the big flying boat, or the eventual deaths to the Undercity elevator, there’s something really special about these kinds of community interactions, making them into mini-events of their own.

This isn’t an isolated incident either, as many other players reported seeing this type of thing basically every time they take a zeppelin or boat or see one arriving.

There’s even theories on why it’s happening so frequently with these particular arrivals! It’s possible many (or all) of the layers get mashed together when one arrives.

And here’s the floor angle of such a character dead-drop!

Whatever the reason this happens, keep an eye out next time you’re arriving at your destination!

Are you enjoying the layering in Forever at the moment? Too many people or too few for your tastes?
