What Would you consider a Zwift O.G

Please stop. I’m on forums to see what human beings think about things, not software.

Are there levels of OG.
Jarvis vets are the real ones.
Watopia, maybe those that only had the Hilly Route to choose from ?
After that I suppose there is the Pre-Covid & Covid Babies split, but really we’re all valid !
Zwift is so much better these days, nostalga be damned :slight_smile:

Maybe we make generations

Jarvis are Boomers
Watopia pre volcano are Gen X
Pre Makuri are Millennials
Pre level 100 are Gen Z
Post level 100 are Gen Alpha

I remember a peak zwift day…ie winter on a sunday, back then was 1000 riders online.
A normal day, max they’d be 300.

Its come a long way

I was formally inducted on November 24th 2014 but I remembered the day of my first ride on December 1st 2014 as a day will be remembered as life-changing.

We could only go forward in one direction, climb Deliverance Hill, hear banjoman play in his shed, the first version of the Italian village, the original Jarvis tree, QE liner in yhe harbor… wow so many details for a beta map.

The only residents were the blue men who are the ancestors of our Robopacers today. Not forgetting yes, Game Master!

We could also toggle between metric and imperial units (U key) which is no longer featured. Even out Beta Zwift kit is now considered one of a kind.

Zwift has mentioned an extra unlock for level 100.
It would be a good extra unlock for level 100 to have Jarvis as an available world.

I go back to Dec 2014 for Zwift, had to wait a few months before my beta application was accepted.

Unfortunately Jarvis was written in a totally different format to what Watopia and all other worlds are. Zwift has said the only way to bring it back would be to totally rewrite it.

If it was there the usual types would have accessed it already through hacks.
